This song is all about German wordplay! LOS has so many meanings, from "Go" to "-less", "start" and t the end when Till sings "Wir waren los", it means "we were unleashed."
Here is some of what I know about the meaning of the word "Los" When used by itself it means “go” for ex. "Los, Los,Los" would translate to " Go, Go,Go" another ex. Is "Los geht's" which translates to "let's go". It is also a negative suffix which when added at the end of a word means "less" ex. sprachlos - speechless, hilflos - helpless, zeitlos - timeless... It can also be used to indicate something is going on’ ex. “Was ist hier los?” “What’s going on here?”
Ah a great performance! I'm glad you enjoyed it, I particularly like the end with Richard and Till headbanging together which doesn't happen often, and ofc Flake in his tiny shorts going mental. This whole concert is great!
I just want to say in the end when he's saying "Los... Los.. Los" repeatedly and the translation shown is "Less.. Less.. Less" well this is just my personal opinion....yes the translation is correct and no the translation isn't correct yes Los can mean Less but only when used at the end of certain words but when said, read or written alone means go...so IMO at the end "Los" should have been translated to "Go" ❤️

Welcome back to the 70s ! It reminds of count-less (zahl-los-e) performances of the great bands of the glorious 70s. I never expected to see and hear something like that in these times again. I love it ! Und ich liebe euch auch !
What a great song to jam to. Love the song. The translation isn't always on point, because "los" is used depending on if it used as noun itself which means as much as "let's go" or if used as suffix, than it means as much as "less". Because of that difficulty or difference to translate it into english, I think the translation still serves its purpose, because you got the message. Artist should be able to do their art as they wish. It's about he difficulties they faced when they started and continued to make music. Some people just don't wanna be confronted with the ugly parts of humanity. And that's ok. They never encouraged anybody to do anything bad. They only point out the diversity of human behavior. Because of Till's 60th Birthday today, the media reported about it and the comments on german social media partly were horrendous. The cancel culture scene had a go on him, which luckily isn't successful here. If you don't like something, don't watch or listen to it. It's as simple as that. Sorry, if I might gotten off track. Great reaction as always you two. With love from Germany 😎 🤘
This was a welcome variation. Wir waren los! does not mean that "We were "less", but rather that "We were let go." As a suffix it means "less," but as a stand-alone word it means "go!"
As in "Let loose the dogs of war", good point. Or if you want to take it REALLY literally and be silly "Wir waren Los" can mean "we were a lottery ticket". "Ich bin ein -Berliner- Los." (I'm sorry)
Thank you for your Rammstein reaction. "Los" is in a subtitled video available, with a lot of clips from the early beginning of the band. Check this out: ua-cam.com/video/HcpGrURdnu4/v-deo.html
Ooh, comments are back! (This section was blacked out awhile) I love the simplicity of this song...so different from their other stuff. Original video is must-see... you'll love all the vintage clips and pix!
after the german unification rammstein didn`t exist yet. they have been on the market since 1994 and have been controversial in east and west, not because of their origin but because of their misical style. this controversy persists to this days. is true, flake still misses his comfortable life in old east berlin but has no great difficulties with his present material comforts. btw: thanks for showing this nice musical act.
@@susanhoffman4835 as a born west berliner i was the happiest person on earth when my country was united and had hope for world peace and great gratitude for the support of the usa and its presence in berlin (at airlift in 1948/49 i was a boy of 7 years and i still remember the american food send from usa) which i never forget even if trump was a disappointment for europe but could not diminish my gratitut to the peoples of usa. the ukraine war also hit germany hard and revived memories of the former cold war, especially in berlin where we offer more than 100.000 refugees a temporary home. best wishes to you both.

👍 One of my many best Songs by Rammstein! Also very worth listening to is the Song "Dalai Lama" from the same Album! Also an incredibly great Song! PS: No, they were censored in United Germany!!! (Rammstein didn't exist in the GDR!) Not friendly was and is the left-wing German press, who are against the rolling R-Song and lyrics (e.g. misogynistic) and for this reason like to call them a Nazi Band! So far, however, they have by and large failed with their smear campaign! Meanwhile, everything that doesn't conform to the government is pushed into the Nazi corner. Even I, for example, who am not vaccinated against Corona and am a lateral thinker, am a Nazi! Left-wing fascism is showing its disgusting face! Orwell 1984 sends its regards and Germany is now divided! Rammstein is neither left-wing nor right-wing, they are socially critical and often illuminate the dark side of People in their Songs! They are also not moralistic or hypocritical! PPS: East Germany is partly more modern than the West, because everything there has been rebuilt. Since the East tends to vote right-wing politically, it is defamed by the West. The Government in Germany is left/green and in the East these Parties together only get 13%! I come from northern Germany (Kiel)
They weren't accepted in the beginning because Till uses an exaggerated speech that is called Stage-German. This was used to make unamplified speech on stage more easily understandable. Unfortunately another very well known but extremely infamous person used that same speech pattern during his speeches. You know, the mustache idiot. He made this type of speech become very unpopular, with good reason. So many people who just heard the speech pattern associated that with those Nutsis (you know, it's weird I can't use the real name without getting censored on a US platform). That's why after all the controversy about them they made the song "Links 2 3 4".
Since about 35% of English comes from Low German, it's not difficult to combine. Los - Less 😉Examples: sprachlos-speechless, willenlos- without will, namenlos- nameless ect.
Not true! When Rammstein started the two Germanys were already reunited. They are speaking in general about the critics’ perception of their music. Especially in America, where they were arrested at least twice for indecent behaviour. And the song Ich tu dir weh was censored in Germany, the united country in 2009. Germany reunited in 1990. Of course they grew up in Eastern Germany and their music is strongly affected by that.
@@SueSueandthewolfman maybe record at fast speed, then slow it down to match a slower song, while a fan blows your hair around? Too much production value?
hello suesue and wolfman im the old german i can translate i löve you all in german is ich liebe euch alle and thank you for this video take care together i hope you understand my bad english hahaha ok see you next time bye
English have a Germanic word for Los too... Los machen means "set free" "loosen the restraints"... so Los in this sence = Loose. But in the end of a word it is ...less Love the reaction... this song gets too little love... its kinda Loveless
This song is all about German wordplay! LOS has so many meanings, from "Go" to "-less", "start" and t the end when Till sings "Wir waren los", it means "we were unleashed."

thx so much for this!!
They always play with words.
“Los” means “go” or “start”, unless it’s added to another word at which it becomes “-less”.
They do this a lot.
I love this performance. So funny. 😁

Vølkerball is one of the best concerts
I love U2😘
"Los" is in German not only 'less' in ending of a word, it's also a command for start a thing.
Sorry for my bad English.
Also like in "Was ist los?" = What's going on? or What is happening?
And like in lóslassen = Let go/let loose
Your English sounds great to me! Thanks for the info!
Since about 35% of English comes from Low German, it's not difficult to combine. Los - Less 😉Examples: sprachlos-speechless, willenlos- without will, namenlos- nameless ect.
