      Yeah, it's a total diss of America. Nobody really likes America except for Americans.
      The problem is that to the rest of the world, Americans seem very stuck up. And the fact that they're almost trying to take over the world with their products, entertainment, war, etc.
      Of course not all Americans are seen this way. You seem like a nice guy. But almost every other American is seen this way

      @@MitgliedT5 I'm sorry but American isn't a race, so it's not racist.
      Also, I shouldn't have said nobody likes America. That's exaggerated for effect. But you even stated the main reasons why most people don't like them.
      Also notice how I said that it doesn't apply to all of them, but it's the view that most people have of USA.
      I do know that some European countries will have USA parties where they all dress up and act the way that the American media portrays itself, which is that everything in America is awesome. So I know that a lot of people want to have that American dream that they're fed every day. But I also know that even more people see that cockiness and it makes them dislike American's.

      To an extent, Rammstein is a product of WWII. Seeing as some of (maybe all, I'm not sure.) Were from East Berlin. So I mean. Even though the US didn't storm Berlin itself, they certainly helped the push for the Red Army. So. In my book, they're a product of the war machine, that was aided by, and still is aided by the United States.

      @@clydefrosch The video makes this very obvious. Americans didn't force people to buy coca cola, pizza and disney. But American culture is MASS culture. It's consumer culture. It's aspirational culture. It's not difficult to understand because America doesn't have that kind of historically contingent, particularistic culture, instead American ideology is universalizing. It says "everyone can be like us! All you need to do is consume our stuff and you too can make it as an American!" The world became richer, and immediately what they could buy were American cultural exports, so American culture went everywhere. It's hegemonic. But not because of a nefarious plot, not because Americans forced it on anyone. It just has the tragic effect of replacing a deep, rich historical culture with a pretty shallow, consumerist American one.

    Actually your mom shows it the best way: "... they want to be Americans, too". No, they don't want it and you just can't seem to understand that. She marks it with a red pencil what the song is about:
    People don't hate people... But that attitude.
    @Alex Hefner: you almost got it right with "they are trolling". But it is even more than that. It is about "invading" minds. I don't mean it "anti americans" but "anti america". You almost got the point with "I hated my school". In Germany we try to be proud of ourselves and our own achievements - not our school, our team or our heritage. But to be fair: we also have a lot of a**-holes here... In every way. I guess that is what diversity is - it includes the people even if they are against diversity.
    To help you understand some lyrics and content: the lyrics are like America is seeing the world as a big party and plays the music of "freedom" the others dance to. It seems harmonic... But there is a twist :
    "Wer nicht tanzen will am Schluss,
    weiß noch nicht, dass er tanzen muss"
    means
    "if you don't want to dance, we will force you to dance".

      Yes, Rammstein are german. So are Scorpions, Helloween, Blind Guardian, Edguy, Avantasia, Kreator, Sodom and Heaven Shall Burn, among many others.
      Do you guys not listen to real metal, or are you all just indoctrinated with thinking FFDP and Disturbed is all there is over there? :D

    Seems like nobody commented it yet so here a short story of the band's name:
    Ramstein (pronounced neither how your Mom nor you did it [but you were closer]) is indeed a town in Germany. It is home to a US airbase. The largest US airbase outside of the US in fact. The base is in a lot of controversy nowadays because it is crucial to the US drone warfare in the Middle East. However the base was infamous for a different reasons in the 90s as Rammstein the band was founded. In 1988 a flight show on the airfield ended in a tragic accident. 70 people died, some 1000 were injured. The US military bungled the rescue and medical first response rather badly by not working with the German emergency services properly. Some units standing by for exactly such case were not activated immediately or at all, ambulances were stopped at the base gate instead being let in immediately, the injured were transported offsite without getting any care at all (as if it was a active combat zone) instead of being treated on the spot. These blunders worsened the impact of the accident. The band Rammstein formed 4 years later and named themselves "Rammstein Flugschau" (Flugschau - air show) after the tragedy. And yes the city is spelled with one M while the band is spelled with two. The reason is that the lead singer misspelled the name.

    "This is not a love song, I don't speak my mother's tongue." - Clearly this refers to Americans once being pioneers and coming from all over Europe to America and yet they do not know about their heritage anymore and only speak English now.

Her band plays in a black latex one piece full body suits with long platinum blond wigs, and a latex mask in the shape of her face with the eyes and mouth cut out like they cut her face off and wasa wearing it

    Rammstein is indeed a location in Germany, a small town where once an airplane (or two can't remember) crashed into the crowd during an airshow. This was during the 80's and they named their band after the tragedy. Their song Rammstein tells this story as well.
