- Hey All! Powerful song, and I am again pleasantly surprised with the amount of substance Rammstein packs in their art, from the music to the video itself.

This was a really nice and a very reflected reaction. It was so nice to hear how you think and feel about this song. Rammstein had done a way more critical and in some way tragical song about their own homecountry germany. The song called "Deutschland". May you react to this song someday.
Also your reaction to Heilungs "In Maidjan" was nice too! I came from this reaction to this one. :) You are so right, Marias Voice is so unique and awesome!
Their videos, their mixing live and in studio, their multi entendres, the simple yet effective music and Till's voice are just outstanding.
Great analysis. In every Rammstein song or video, you will have a lot of messages or metaphors. I think "Zeit" or "Deutschland" (official videos) could be very interesting for you. And the live performances are absolute amazing. One of the best live bands. Thank you.
I like your reaction. 👍
I don't think Rammstein would hate you. 😀They again and again put their "fingers" in wounds. Not everytime but oftenly. And if you think, this song is harsh, you should take a look at their song "Deutschland" (Germany) with their look at their own country. Even though there are a lot of references to German history that are not easy to get in the first few views, some parts can't be misunderstood. It's a great (but not nice) video and their lyrics are matching the visuals.
Great reaction. Love how you not only got the general message, but noticed all the small little details and commentary in the video.
I like your honest approach to Rammstein's videos. I couldn't reflect on it the way you do. You are the right one for this on the channels.Please make more videos about this band at shorter intervals. There is more material to examine.
Nice reaction. I don't think they see you or the American people as their main target here. It's imo the politics and the cooperations running over other countries and cultures. That image with Santa in Africa makes me gasp every time I see this video.
For me the strongest part is the indigenous people singing "this is not a love song. I don't speak my mother tongue" referring to them having been forced to speak English, even though they'd lived in their own country
Good to see you back! Hope you are well. Orbit Culture has a new song
You are getting the point completly right! Nice reaction 😊😊
Nice reaction. And spot on.
I love Rammstein for their more quite Songs, like "Ohne dich" or "Stirb nicht vor mir". Shows that they really know how to make music and not only big Shows. Besides beeing to extreme in many moments, musically they are one of the best bands world wide
If you didn't watch "Zeit" or didn't listen to it i highly recommend it to you to watch and listen to it maybe you Change your Mind. Greetings from Germany 😘
I've been watching reactions to this video pretty much since reaction channels became a thing and sadly no one has ever mentioned the japanese "Elvis" on a Harley Davidson.
One of my son’s favorite bands! He even started learning German so he could understand the lyrics more readily. Not really sure what to think of the song as a whole, but I think you’re pretty close with your summation.
Rammstein ❤️
wow,you understood the message,greets from germany 👍

Hello from germany 🙂
your reaction is great! 👍
you take it easy, that's very personable.🙃
rammstein has millions of loyal fans in america and rammstein are currently on tour in america.
I send you greetings from germany
Thank you Wolfgang! Yes, I have seen commercials actually for their US tour. I wasn't able to see them sadly. I'd definitely like to one day
👍😍
Great reaction! I'd love to see more Rammstein reactions - hope you'll have time for this.
As for the way you are doing it - I suggest going to "educatedmarine" youtube channel, since this user has added English translations (either in CCs, or just embedded) to many Rammstein songs.
I would suggest something less common: Educatedmarine has created custom video for Rammstein's "Dalai Lama" song, which didn't have a video. Please react to that, it is quite an old song but very well written!
Have a nice day! 😁
I watched a bunch of reactions of this song . You got the message almost complete in no time .... congrats ! By the way : What might be the message to present US biggest success (landing at the moon) as fake ????
“When we dance, I lead”
“Amerika” is, according to the band, a satirical commentary on Americanization and the misconceptions foreigners, as well as some Americans, have about the American utopia.
Apollo 13: "Houston, whe have a problem!"
One?
They also have a song about Germany too. Deutschland
Subbed and liked, greetings!
Don't keep your eyes shut too long !
You might miss something...
First rule for Rammstein videos 😂
Policing the world isnt neccesary a bad thing... if its done correctly. We dont wanna fear dictatorships any longer, but getting rid of them proves to be difficult...
Good Boy
Please react to more.
I like how you react and Rammstein and their music is filled with storys and they break and speak about so many taboes.
Educated marine and buckstabo have English subs 😊
Yes, not everyone is bad or bad intended.
While on the subject of "fake plastic" you would probably also very much enjoy "zick zack" by them. Cheers for this reaction!
🤗😘😊
I’m not gonna trash you LOL. I think the part at the end dives into the conspiracy that we never actually landed on the moon. That it was faked on a soundstage.
Man kann sich nur für das schuldig fühlen, was man zu seiner eigenen Lebenszeit zugelassen oder nicht verhindert hat. Deswegen fühle ich mich als Deutsche auch nicht schuldig dafür, was meine Vorfahren getan haben. Wir alle sind verantwortlich dafür, alles zu beobachten und jeden Krieg zu verhindern, egal welcher Nation wir zugehören, wir sind alle Menschen. Wir sind eine Menschheitsfamilie.
You got it bro. This is basically a parody song of American culture
The song probably sings how America controls the world, wants it and everyone dances to its tune, figuratively speaking.
For example -
Wenn getanzt wird will ich fuehren,
Auch wenn ihr euch alleine dreht,
Lasst euch ein wenig kontrollieren,
Ich zeige euch wie's richtig geht,
(When there's dancing,
I want to lead
Even if you turn alone
Let us control you a little
I show you how it's done,)
Or -
Ich kenne Schritte die sehr nuetzen,
Und werde euch vor Fehltritt schuetzen,
Und wer nicht tanzen will am Schluss,
Weiss noch nicht dass er tanzen muss.
(I know steps that are very useful
And will protect you from missteps,
And if you don't want to dance at the end,
Don't know yet that he has to dance).
And then another -
We're all living in America,
amerika ist wunderbar,
We're all living in America,
America, America,
We're all living in America,
coca-cola,
sometimes war,
We're all living in America,
America, America.
Here it is so clear. Vietnam, Iraq, Yugoslavia, Syria, Afghanistan, etc. At the same time, everyone in America, that is, they eat hamburgers and drink Coca-Cola. And the scene at the end, when the video is being filmed, is a joke about America's flights to the moon, which, according to many versions, are considered fake. One big lie. If only because the flights were so long ago and turned out, and then the technologies developed, and the flights all stopped, strange, then they refused to give this soil to anyone for a long time, etc. Probably they wanted to say this in the song secretly, it seems to me so, I could be wrong.
It’s not about exports of goods, Germany exports about the same, even way more products, because they don’t export oil gas or gold. And u r just a few million infront of the in exports. I mean It could be Adidas or puma shoes in the video, but they don’t sell their agenda with it.
good comment thx.
In Paris is Disneyland..
It's not just about corporations, it's way more universal… American popular culture is literally levelling other cultures, their inert and unique diversity.
and at the end of the day rammstein basically blames both sides: the american side for pushing their 'culture' on others, but at the same time also blaming the other side for letting that happen.
Hier steht etwas
Hey 🙋♂️
Please react the Videos Stein um Stein and Mein Herz brennt.
Your reaction is great 👍 ✌️
the problem is that peple outside usa love only a part of us culture movies music sports but rest of it it is scary
Dont have this guilt trip. Try to change the country for the better if possible in ur position, baby-steps matter too, and dont get too frustrated.
Ur not guilty of US misdeeds. US might be better without that much company fixiation without any doubt, more paid vacation and child care time for everyone and good health in the process, and a reform of that hella expensive broken health system with something like we in germany have...
Nice reaction btw.
Hi bro, i must say i love America since i was a kid ! I love America always and forever, two times i was there and since the first time i feel like home the first time of my live ! I never feel so good like there ! I'm new on your channel and i feel well on your channel ! Greatings and love from germany ♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️🥰♥️♥️
Pls watch „Zeit“ (Time) and „Deutschland“ (Germany)
Hey buddy. Just wanna say , I am a German living in the UK and I for one love America and am glad and thankful that it's you guys policing the world as opposed to other nations that shall remain unnamed ,or no one ,imagine that, no one policing the world. I'd be back to the stone age. Self critique is good but so is appreciation.
Much love and thank you
The US airbase is located in Ramstein 😂
Yep! When I was still in the service (2000 - 2006) we would sometimes stop there for refueling while on the way to another deployment. Sometimes we would stop in Frankfurt
....and one of the American military bases in Germany is called Rammstein 🤯
The band is named after the military base, or rather the airshow catastrophe there. They chose the name for shock effect.
Hey 🙋♂️
Your chanel is fantastic 👍
I come from Göttingen in Germany. Please react the Videos Zeit and Angst from Rammstein and read the epic lyrics ✌️ ✌️ ✌️
Hey I like that you discover RAMMSTEIN...the best live band...I know you were a fan of EV and Jen Majura..me too...I must say...Im so dissappointed from Amy. I can tell you its a shame ...EV is for me dead...peace from germany...danny
Hi Danny, thanks for the comment! I never knew what the reason Jen left, do you know why?
What Rammstein is saying in this song is that all the people in the world including americans embraced american „values”. The american values pictured here are: unhealty food and drinks, gasoline, cigaretes, cheap fakes, children icons, war for profit. They are saying that we replaced real values with american icons, that we all replaced playing a piano with playing a pinball machine. And they say we did all of this because we all belived that Amerika is great based on the moonlanding which is fake also.
I don't think, that it is a problem per se, that the US is policing. But it is a problem that they don't do it to make the world better, but to only serve their own interest. As Spiderman would say: from great power comes great responsibility ;-)
The problem is more, that American pop culture is consuming a lot of regional cultures and at the same time a lot of Americans are oblivious that there are a lot of different cultures in which there is a good living. How could you (not you personaly ;-) ) policing the world without anything knowing about the world? And how could you think you can jugde other cultures when you don't realy work on your own dark history? Look at the reservations of the native people of north America or at the disparities still suffered by coulored people in the US. School books in the south of the US till the kids, that there had been slavery, but they don't teach the kids, that the civil war was about of ending slavery, but on the autonomous rights of the states as an abstract. And so on... A country should not only be proud of its better parts of history, but also stand to the own attrocities and teach their children about them. That isn't realy the case in the US (or in the UK for that matter).
Don't feel guilty here... You have one advantage that puts you in a favourable position to begin with: You are American.
But that doesn't necessarily make you the target of this message. US-American "culture", in the form of items and foods, is exported into the very last corners of the world, and has sometimes a large cultural impact and influence. This is not always met with enthusiasm - and sparks (sometimes radical) counter movements. It's a fact that, by exporting goods and how they are used, US-American culture has been pushed onto the whole planet and changed the way we exist as a global society. Therefore, to some degree, we all now live a little bit in Amerika.
As you said, we need to see this from the outside perspective. This song is a little bit of a reaction of what the US did globally after 9/11 - and the political aspect ends exactly here. The US started dictating what is good or evil and took leadership. See it from this angle: Around the time this song was released, the US impact and pressure on this world was so aggressive and severe that even an unpolitical band like Rammstein felt that had to make some sort of statement.
You are not the one forcefully pushing US cultures and values onto other peoples, the corporations and the intertwined government do - and that's simply what this song says. (Rammstein is always simple in its complexity)
you arent really guilty itsjust that america tries to spread everything they have to other places even tho we dont need it
The phrase you are looking for is "cultural imperialism"
