I dunno if anyone has heard this new Rammstein song, but I'll post the lyrics, and the translation of it. I really like "freedom plays on all violins/ music comes out of the whitehouse"

Just kinds of ring true to me right now. Anyway, the lyrics!

We're all living in Amerika
Amerika ist wunderbar
We're all living in Amerika
Amerika, Amerika

Wenn getanzt wird will ich führen
auch wenn ihr euch alleine dreht
Lasst euch ein wenig kontrollieren
Ich zeige euch wie es richtig geht
Wir bilden einen lieben Reigen
Die Freiheit spielt auf allen Geigen
Musik kommt aus dem Weißen Haus
und vor Paris steht Micky Maus

We're all living in Amerika
Amerika ist wunderbar
We're all living in Amerika
Amerika, Amerika

Ich kenne Schritte die sehr nützen
und werde euch vor Fehltritt schützen
Und wer nicht tanzen will am Schluss
weiß noch nicht dass er tanzen muss
Wir bilden einen lieben Reigen
Ich werde euch die Richtung zeigen
Nach Afrika kommt Santa Claus
und vor Paris steht Micky Maus

We're all living in America
America is wonderful
we're all living in America
America
America

We're all living in America
America is wonderful
we're all living in America
America
America

When we dance I want to lead
when you turn yourself around alone
let us control you a bit
I'll show you how to walk right

We create a lovely round dance
the freedom plays from all violins
music comes from the White House
and in front of Paris stands Mickey Mouse

We're all living in America
America is wonderful
we're all living in America
America
America

I know the very useful steps
and I will protect you from missteps
and who does not want to dance at the end
does not know that he must dance

We create a lovely round dance
I will show you the direction
to Africa comes Santa Claus
and in front of Paris stands Mickey Mouse

We're all living in America
America is wonderful
we're all living in America
America
America

We're all living in America
Coca Cola, Wonderbra
we're all living in America
America
America

This is not a love song
this is not a love song
I don't sing my mother tongue
no, this is not a love song

We're all living in America
America is wonderful
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





If you find some er

OMG... It is about time someone said something about Rammstein on here. There CD is awesome. There are better songs then the Amerika song. There is one that is a combo of Russian and German. Its called Moskau and they talk about how beautiful the city of Moskau really is. Check out the CD sometime. I love it, you might not be able to understand all of it, but the beats are really good. Give it a try.... :thumb: :thumb: :thumb:

I got Reise, Reise for x-mas. I've been listening to it and love it. My favorite tracks from are Mein Teil, Keine Lust, and Moskau so far. I have all the other Rammstein releases, except for the live one. I love their music!

I'm also thinking about getting the newest from Megaherz, another German band that sounds an awful lot like Rammstein. Anybody else heard of Megaherz?

I have their Mutter Ablum and Reise Reise. I like Reise Reise better. My favorite songs are Mein Teil, Keine Lust, Los, Moskau, Stein um Stein, Morgenstern, Ohne Dich, Armour, s**t there whole Cd is good. The CD is good visual music before going MTB. haha. I like how they mix up there songs so its not only German, there is English in there, Russian, and French. I am in German 3 at my high school, thats why I am so interested in them.

Ive heard of Megaherz but i think Rammstein is way cooler. :p :p :p

I always get so pumped up and full of energy, when i listen to there music. It makes me wanna ride. I've seen a intervieuw on tv with them for a music channel somewhere in the Vegas desert, :think: and they where having a bbQ. And the journalist asked why they are so popular outside there country and in the usa. They said " actuall we don;t know, they can't understand us. But i most be lyrics and way we bring it. "

My brother went to a concert, and it totally rocked. They make such a huge shows of it. unbelievable.

Rammstein is popular everywhere BUT Germany.

And no, the US anthem would likely be the same.

A) Germany had almost no chance of winning the war with the entrance of the USSR and USA as Allies

and

B) Even if Hitler had succeeded to bring the US to it's knees, he did not want to conquer the US, just make them sue for peace. He was far more concerned with expansion Eastward, into Russia and such. If we were, by some bizarre chance, speaking a different language as a result of WW2, it would most likely be Japanese.

Rammstein is the ****. That's all there is to it.

I have every single one of their albums, and love them all.

Over in Germany they're not quite as liked as they are here. A lot of people view them as disgusting, and nasty. Some of their songs are really enlightening and "happy" while others border Marilyn Manson. Several of my German friends that live in Deutschland all say they're the equivelant of Marilyn Manson.

Personally, I've liked them since back before "Du Hast" even came out. Their beats are farily simple, but the industrial / metal / grunge that they pull off really gets me in the riding mood.

Their latest Album "Reise Reise" has absolutely awesome songs. Even though I can only decypher about 60% of the lyrics, the messages I get from them are awesome.

Long live Rammstein!

Rammstein ist der Meistershaft auf Deutschland!

People that Rammstein concerts are the s***. They say they use all kinds of fire and random stuff. There just out to have a good time. I believe Reise Reise is their best album yet. All the songs have good beats and good solos. There awesome. I like how they mix it up with different languages. This music is for everyone. You don't have to understand it to like it.

As I like to say in German... Rammstein ist die SCHEISSE!!!!(sp?)

You wanna see fire, find some info on Neubauten. They invented kraut-rock art-faggy firestorms on stage...played jackhammers and broken glass as instruments, etc. etc.

And "die Scheisse" doesn't really connote in German what it does in US slang...reminds me of the time in Austria when this hot chick did a stupid magic trick, pulled a quarter out of my ear or something (we'd had a few beers...) and, by way of trying to say, "you can do magic!", I called her a "hexe" (witch), which didn't go over quite so well...

Ok so obv. he has never listened to there music. Then can do more with guitars. If you ever listened to the song "los" That is all acoustic and I must say it sounds awesome. And in a way they are making fun of America, but in a way there not and they are congradulating us. Anyways were AMERICA what do you expect......

Sorry for not clarifying, I was intending to mean something like it's more popular in the US than it is in Germany, not to say it isn't in Germany...which I pretty much said. Mwahaha for getting pwned.

We'll I'm glad you guys are American, maybe now you can type in some ENGLISH!
By the way, none of you would of ever of heard of Rammstein if it wasn't for David Lynch.

(Sorry I hate to have to go Loco Gringo on you guys but something had to be said.)
