Yeah he says he does it out of pure instinct. I had a bad habit of rolling my R’s when i first started learning German because of how much Rammstein i listen to. I don’t anymore though, just if I’m singing along or something.
@@cedddkkddkk There are some regions in Germany where the r is rolled, for example in Franconia (Franken). In earlier times, was also the r rolling spoken at the theater or at the Rezidation of poems. Till comes from the north of Germany, the r is not rolled there.
@@cedddkkddkk Right, in a part of Bavaria (Franken) and in the state of Thuringia (Thüringen ) they speak like that. There are very, very many dialects here in Germany.
You commented on Till being a big man - he was an athlete in the past, he was supposed to represent Germany in the Olympics in swimming but unfortunately left the sport due to injury.
@@woodmasta22 Oh, we've learned something: East Germany doesn't belong to "Germany" for some people - thanks for the pointless comment! You are certainly a pathetic "Wessi".....
For someone who suffers with stage fright Till is a great frontman, his interaction with the crowd is (in my opinion) on a level with Freddie Mercury. He is apparently quite a shy and quiet man off stage, so it does look like he has an onstage "character". And I believe the band started the pyrotechnics partly to take some of the attention away from Till.
If you really want to appreciate Till's voice (and btw how good of a piano player Flake is!) is suggest this video: ua-cam.com/video/oIG1Pp_qBzA/v-deo.html It is a pro-shot of a festival concert, but not so "over-engineered" as many of the official concert video. Very raw, no playback.
Unfortunately, in the metal musician community this band is incredibly underrated. I've always loved them, but I've always loved industrial music like this and Nine Inch Nails. Till's voice is awesome, and Rammstein's performances are a spectacle to behold. There is a reason this band band can sell out stadiums in a country that can't understand the lyrics. They are showmen. Not just musicians on a stage. I wish more bands made attempts at this.
You can make good music that is simple. Rammstein is simple. Fun to perform, boring to play. And that is fine, not an attack. Don't be so upset about nothing. They are a household name and that's that. People that compare dicks over music or musicality are dumbasses.
How is Rammstein underrated? It took them half an hour to sell two shows in Madisson Square Garden. I think they are quite popular and for a good reason.
They always have legendary live performances. That‘s why it is very very hard to get tickets. They fill stadiums but the internet site immediately broken down when the ticket sale begins. I tried twice but failed everytime. 😭😭😭
@@mehis1981 all I really remember is feeling the intense heat on my face from all the pyro and Til cooking up the keyboard player in a giant crockpot during Mein Teil 😂
I met Till Lindemann in store in Berlin where i worked. Got a Autograph. He's a big and a shy person. He never watch(ed) the audience. He focus mostly on a point at the back of the hall he said in a interview. If you ever have the chance to visit their concerts 2021 or 2022 go there. The Energy and power at a Rammstein concert is unique. I visited many concerts in my life. But Rammstein concerts are very impressive. Their shows are very theatrical. To know how popular the Band became you have to know, that 2018 when the ticket offices start to opend online, all their over 60 concerts they play(ed) worldwide were sold out under 1 hour!
The pyrotechnics are also a big factor in helping Till work through his stage fright. He doesn’t like to be looked at, excluding when interacting with specific audience members. He usually focuses on the mixing desk or in the far back of the venue, but the pyro effects also take away some of the attention on him ^.^
I just discovered this band today. Unbelievable everything! The lead dude, the keyboard guy, the guitar players, drummer…all awesome! Next level entertaining and his voice is shocking.
"He's covered in glitter." That's Flake for you. If asked how to describe this person's (at least stage)-personality: "he's covered in glitter" is really the only way to say it.
...and he is like Till a very very likeable person, calm and intelligent. But he sometimes unexpectedly blurts out a sentence that could make you laugh your head off.
"German is a percussive language" That's interesting for me as someone learning the language. You seem like an intelligent and cultured guy so I will add that if you want to understand Till more-as he writes the lyrics- he's a published poet and his father wrote children's books in East Germany. The band emerged from the punk scene there in the 80s. Till is influenced a lot by the greats of German literature and poetry like Brecht and Goethe who are his heroes, and Heinrich Heine. Please react to 'Mein Hertz brennt' instrumental next! it really shows off Till's vocal range.
To be fair, Rammstein really exaggerate the harshness of the German language for effect, which is part of their international appeal. No one actually enunciates like that off the stage.
Normally I hate when a "proper" person thinks that they can analyze something that is so much more than just vocals, but you actually seem to get it. Lovely!
The way Till sings is more old school artistic. We germans do not talk like that. I always sing along and in a more soft way. Sometimes I talk like that to make fun of something. He kinda sings poetic in my opinion. Thank you for your reaction. :)
@@NoShadowsHere the closest comparison i can draw here is shakespeare-esque formal english. a lot of tills lyrics are written in an abstract and outdated way, so even in formal writing barely anyone would use that language. his pronounciation reflects just that! youll find that a lot of german artists who did music during the peak of romanticism (18th century) will roll their r's and such! its an art thats almost entirely lost in current music, mainly because newer singers and lyricists simply dont have a point of reference for that kind of stuff
@@rreinraus Oh wow, I didn't know any of that! Thank you for sharing all this info, I've been interested in learning German for years now but I never truly got into it. If I ever do start, I will definitely keep an eye out on trying to notice the differences and nuances you speak of. I've never really noticed anyone singing in this kind of way, I guess? It would almost be like listening to old Italian being sung for me, perhaps. As an Italian, it would be a weird but interesting experience! "Poetic", as you said.
@@NoShadowsHere no problem, im always happy to help! and yeah, ive honestly never seen a mainstream artist besides rammstein use that language so i see why you would have a rather hard time picking up the difference. it also doesnt apply for each song of theirs, usually, its a stylistic choice and till will switch from casual german to this more formal way of speaking depending on the song, the harsher vocals often stick, though. tracks like "ich tu dir weh" and "ausländer" use normal german while "donaukinder" or "mutter" have way more poetic lyrics, for example.
About the rolling the R: I am Franconian (southern Germany) and I always roll my R. It's close to impossible for me not to. I can pronounce an English R no problem. But I can't do a "proper" German R.
Your reaction is much the same to mine when I heard Till actually sing for the first time, instead of just growling and screaming. I was taken aback and amazed. He does actually have a really beautiful baritone. I hadn't expected that at all. And his singing has only gotten better over the years. Loved your reaction. Do "Sonne" or "Ohne dich" next, please. More actual singing there.
Rammstein was one of my favorite bands during my teenage years. I still love their songs. "Du riechst so gut" (you smell so good) "Mein Teil" (my part) "Benzin" (gasoline) "Du hast" (you have) "Ohne dich" (without you) "Sonne" (sun) Just a few great songs of them. Greetings from Germany 👋🏻
It's just amazing to see that ALL music lovers can love Rammstein. The huge lungs of a former elite swimmer like Till can hold lots of air I guess. //C-🇸🇪
FYI: Last Friday Rammstein's debut album "Herzeleid" had its 25th Anniversary, so it would be cool if you could check out some of their 90's concerts. For example the "Rammstein - Herzeleid & Seemann (Arena Berlin 1996) " Video from their official channel, if you want to see how much Till Lindemann's voice & singing ability has changed over the years, from Rammstein's early days to their more recent ones.
Rammstein does great theater! I love how the "fire" transforms Flake's drab, carbon black attire into glittering gems. What is a very dark story, lyrically, ends with uncommon beauty.
Watching your face light up watching rammstein performances is my new favorite thing. If you haven’t done du hast live in Paris yet, you should. Honestly not as much for the vocals themselves but it’s just such a fun performance to watch
Till's stage fright makes me like him so much more - and I'm sure I'm not the only one. The fact that he struggles with performing and yet performs so much and so well makes him a hero in my eyes.
What you said about his stage anxiety, it’s not only the “other” personality that helps him, but especially the fact that he knows that not everybody is looking at him because of all the other effects that are happening
Watching people react to Rammstein is my fave thing 😁 I have been a fan of them for almost 20 years, so it's cool to see people are still learning about them 😊 Also your german is great! Subbed 😁
As a big Rammstein fan I have seen many reactions, and I must say that yours are simply world class. I always have to think of a child who is allowed to open presents at Christmas when I see them. Thanks for making me smile again...😀
After following these guys since the early years, when I first heard Tills vocals on this track I had tears in my eyes. It was revolutionary for his style
My favorite band of all time. There are emotions and vocals that Rammstein expresses that I haven’t seen done by anyone else. I was at the concert in Madison Square Garden. Best experience of my life.
Funny thing about this video - it is tradition, that in every concert Flake (the keyboarder) gets abused on stage by Till Another great example is "Mein Teil" live You're 100% right btw about Till ... off stage he is the nicest and kindest person on this planet ... but as soon as he enters the stage he becomes this larger than life character and completly goes mental....another great example is Alice Cooper Thanks for your videos Love from Dresden, Germany
to add to your observation of the german language, Till speaks Bühnendeutsch (stage german) when he performs. this is a form of speech and articulation where mor emphasis is put on normally very light and soft konsonants and bringing out clear understandable words. thats why he rolls his R, his speech is very tacted etc.
Oh, your face as he's going up on the lift - priceless. In addition to the other mentions in the comments, your look just struck out as awe, curiosity, and almost hypnotized terror. Perfect.
Hi i subscribed after watching your first Rammstein reaction. I like the way you react. Welcome to the Rammstein journey. Rammstein is my all time favorite band. But i also like other music genres. Thanks for reacting to this song!!
I love rammstein!! There coming back to the states 2021!! I already prepaid for two tickets!!! Best band of the 21st century!! Hands down! Great music, vocals, and the live shows... Wow.. no one out there can complete with that!!! But I was a fan in the 90's as a kid.. before most people even heard of them..
Lyrics in english: You live only for me I stick medals into your face You are entirely devoted to me You love me because I don't love you You bleed for my salvation A little cut and you're turned on The body already completely disfigured It doesn't matter, whatever pleases is allowed I hurt you I'm not sorry It's good for you Hear how it screams With you I have the choice of torment Barbed wire in the urethral tract Throw your flesh in salt and pus At first you die, but then you live more Bites, kicks, hard blows Needles, pliers, a blunt saw What you wish, I don't say no And insert rodents into you I hurt you I'm not sorry It's good for you Hear how it screams You are the ship, I'm the captain Where should this journey go? I see your face in the mirror You love me because I don't love you I hurt you I'm not sorry It's good for you Hear how it screams
This brings back memories of seeing them live. It was beyond any concert I’ve ever been to (and here in LA, I’ve been lucky enough to see every band I’ve wanted to). What you can’t see is the HEAT coming off the stage. They call the front the Fire Zone because you’ll feel those fireworks, especially indoors. They were supposed to come here to The Coliseum in September, but cancelled due to COVID. The biggest disappointment of the year. Hoping in 2021. Somebody probably already mentioned that Til was an Olympic swimmer (lung capacity) and a Pyrotechnic. Amazing!!!!
I really love this reaction. That is what is supposed to happen when somebody is seeing a live show from Rammstein. I really got tears in my eyes because i want to see them so so so bad! And Till is amazing he is also a poet and wrote some books and stuff
I concur with Doing the Original Video and then sliding into the piano version... as they seem to go together... you can hear the piano at the end of the original video version.
because as a german native speaker , its nonsense hahah AND if you would be in a restaurant eating schnitzel and they serving you noodles as well , burn the restaurant
This is the song that turned me around regarding Rammstein :). Before this I considered them as kind of a one dimensional band using visuals to make them interesting but this chorus and displaying different singing styles got me diving into their catalogue and since then there has been no turning back.
Something about pausing right before the chorus bothers me. Christoph’s snare drum fill is clearly about to be succeeded by an epic moment and he pauses it. Nooooooo Lol.
I absolutely love your exploration and open mindedness about music you may not traditionally listen to. The excitement and joy makes me really happy. Keep on exploring and doing what you do. Because a lot of us can use a happy moment nowadays. May I recommend some System of A Down? Serj Tankian (lead singer) has an incredible voice.
Madison Square Garden is actually a quite small venue for a Rammstein concert. Concerts in he Square have about 20K attendance maximum. Their largest concert was Rock on the Volga back in 2014 with approx 700.000 people attending. Imagine that!
Thank you much for reacting. ;) Rammstein is unique in this profession. They clearly know how to turn the wheel and manage to fascinate people without ridiculous cheesiness. If you like, you can react to the official video "Deutschalnd" one or even the best produced Clip in music industry. In this song Rammstein rework German history, only in their own way. Or "Mutter"... or just choose what you find interesting. There is actually hardly to find a bad song or video on the official channel.
it’s sung in German...German is a distorted sounding language as is. then along comes Till Lindemann and makes it his own. plus, a new(er) sub, couple videos ago. love what you’re doing, Mr Lavigne. keep it up!
I really love your reaction and analysis with Rammstein! I usually never comment on videos, but I just wanted you to know that! I know that others have commented about it but Sept 25 was their 25th anniversary! I think you should check out some songs on their first album - Herzeleid (Du riechst so gut is my personal favorite). I could recommend so many more songs since they are all so amazing, (Sonne, Keine Lust, Waidmann's Heil, Puppe, Deustchland, Diamant, Klavier, Mein Teil, Pussy, Bück Dich, etc...) but it is all up to you!
On the Platform he is strapped. Have a look at his right foot at 4:05 in the original Video. See the Hand behind his right Foot and the suspension at 4:07? He might be a Maniac but he isnt tired of life.
There is no cable because someone would have to come on and clip him to it. If his foot was held firm and he fell, it would rip his leg off. Use some common sense.
in the beginning till got chosen for looks to be frontman (not kidding) by nature he is a drummer. flake actually mains the trumpet in private but does the keyboard for the band. to fight his stagefright (till) he once told, he uses a landmark behind the audience so he never really looks directly at them.
What a charming reaction to an awesome band. :) I noticed your slightly headbanging - that's how it begins, hehe. I would love to see your reaction to "Rammstein - Rammlied (Live from Madison Square Garden)"!
If you are looking for another "special" german (and somewhat harder) band, I'd suggest Knorkator and their cover of Boney M.s "Ma baker" or one of their newest tracks like "Rette sich wer kann" or "Revolution" - I really like the mixture of different singingtechniques featured in some of their songs and their strange appearance on stage. Keep up the great work, cheers!
Rammstein. Hailing from former East Germany, named after Ramstein (one 'm') where a fighter jet crashed into the onlookers during an airshow. Dubbed Industrial Metal but according to Till Lindemann (singer) they make 'tanzmetal' (dance metal). Rammstein is often looked at with suspicion because the sound of marching boots and Germans still makes certain people uncomfortable. That and the fact they broach subjects that are considered touchy or even taboo. I like 'em.
You should absolutely check out Sonne and Mein Teil live for more impressive vocals and pyrotechnics. 😁 I've been lucky enough to see them live twice now. Their live shows are phenomenal.
The text-line "Ich seh im Spiegel dein Gesicht" ("I see your face in the mirror") is a hint, that the Lyrics could be about only one person and not two diffrent people... So BDSM is probably not the correct term.
They're not just a band from Germany, they're one of the best live bands ever. Period.
If not the best live band of all time
Rammstein and Scorpions are in my opinion the top 2 German band
They are The best!

I agree-I think that this video and the Rammlied video from this same concert are their best live recordings.
Till's stage fright makes me like him so much more - and I'm sure I'm not the only one. The fact that he struggles with performing and yet performs so much and so well makes him a hero in my eyes.
What you said about his stage anxiety, it’s not only the “other” personality that helps him, but especially the fact that he knows that not everybody is looking at him because of all the other effects that are happening
The “bathtub person” is Flake, lol.
Bathtub person.
Sounds like a character from Rick & Morty. Like bird person.
Watching people react to Rammstein is my fave thing 😁
I have been a fan of them for almost 20 years, so it's cool to see people are still learning about them 😊
Also your german is great!
Subbed 😁
As a big Rammstein fan I have seen many reactions, and I must say that yours are simply world class. I always have to think of a child who is allowed to open presents at Christmas when I see them. Thanks for making me smile again...😀
Jeah, actually I was thinking exactly the same! He is so cute 😁
React to Rammstein "Mutter" (Mother). React to the Paris Live Video. Till's voice in this one is also a must hear and this is a favorite of mine.
After following these guys since the early years, when I first heard Tills vocals on this track I had tears in my eyes. It was revolutionary for his style
My favorite band of all time. There are emotions and vocals that Rammstein expresses that I haven’t seen done by anyone else. I was at the concert in Madison Square Garden. Best experience of my life.
Also fun fact, Till Lindeman has a degree in pyrotechnics and all of the props and pyro is built by him.
Ken has a new favorite band. Welcome to the club. Been rocking them for almost 20 years now
My favourite metal band ever. Brilliant.
Funny thing about this video - it is tradition, that in every concert Flake (the keyboarder) gets abused on stage by Till
Another great example is "Mein Teil" live
You're 100% right btw about Till ... off stage he is the nicest and kindest person on this planet ... but as soon as he enters the stage he becomes this larger than life character and completly goes mental....another great example is Alice Cooper
Thanks for your videos
Love from Dresden, Germany
Alice Cooper was better than Motley Crue on their definately "farewell" tour. 😡
Spot on comparing Alice Cooper's stage persona with Till's.
Great Reaction.
I suggest Rammlied. Thats a concert opener and shows Tills great voice.
Rammlied is my favorite from MSG
@genofear, Ich Tu Dir Weh and Rammlied at MSG are my favorites out of any of their live performances.
to add to your observation of the german language, Till speaks Bühnendeutsch (stage german) when he performs.
this is a form of speech and articulation where mor emphasis is put on normally very light and soft konsonants and bringing out clear understandable words. thats why he rolls his R, his speech is very tacted etc.
What a gorgeous, soaring, euphoric chorus: and his powerful, deep voice is soooo perfect for it!
You must react "Wiener Blut" Live in Wacken 2013 and "Mein Teil" Hurricane Festival. Greeds from Germany...
Gier aus Deutschland?
Oh, your face as he's going up on the lift - priceless.
In addition to the other mentions in the comments, your look just struck out as awe, curiosity, and almost hypnotized terror. Perfect.
Hi i subscribed after watching your first Rammstein reaction. I like the way you react. Welcome to the Rammstein journey. Rammstein is my all time favorite band. But i also like other music genres. Thanks for reacting to this song!!
Hello LaWanda Buchanan, thanks for commenting, and subbing! It was my pleasure!
I love rammstein!! There coming back to the states 2021!! I already prepaid for two tickets!!! Best band of the 21st century!! Hands down! Great music, vocals, and the live shows... Wow.. no one out there can complete with that!!! But I was a fan in the 90's as a kid.. before most people even heard of them..
Lyrics in english:
You live only for me
I stick medals into your face
You are entirely devoted to me
You love me because I don't love you
You bleed for my salvation
A little cut and you're turned on
The body already completely disfigured
It doesn't matter, whatever pleases is allowed
I hurt you
I'm not sorry
It's good for you
Hear how it screams
With you I have the choice of torment
Barbed wire in the urethral tract
Throw your flesh in salt and pus
At first you die, but then you live more
Bites, kicks, hard blows
Needles, pliers, a blunt saw
What you wish, I don't say no
And insert rodents into you
I hurt you
I'm not sorry
It's good for you
Hear how it screams
You are the ship, I'm the captain
Where should this journey go?
I see your face in the mirror
You love me because I don't love you
I hurt you
I'm not sorry
It's good for you
Hear how it screams
I didn't know he could sing so well ⁉️ His notes are SO clean and soft i can't believe it
Great reaction! Thank you!
This brings back memories of seeing them live. It was beyond any concert I’ve ever been to (and here in LA, I’ve been lucky enough to see every band I’ve wanted to). What you can’t see is the HEAT coming off the stage. They call the front the Fire Zone because you’ll feel those fireworks, especially indoors. They were supposed to come here to The Coliseum in September, but cancelled due to COVID. The biggest disappointment of the year. Hoping in 2021. Somebody probably already mentioned that Til was an Olympic swimmer (lung capacity) and a Pyrotechnic. Amazing!!!!
He has such good stage presence
Love your reactions ❤ like a child on X-mas Eve waiting for its gifts. And it's RAMMSTEIN !
I don't know if non german speakers ever wondered, but this song is basically about SM. So, there you go with this knowledge
I know they delve into so many different subjects. I love so many songs of theirs. I really like: Liebe Ist Fur Alle Da
Yes! Your german speech is very good. Lovely regards from a german RAMMSTEIN follower. WELCOME to the RAMMSTEIN CROWD!!!
I like your reaction to Rammstein.
I think it's time for 'Wollt ihr das Bett in Flammen sehen (Paris)' or 'Rammlied (MSG)'.
Heinz nope... don´t make poor Ken suffer the awful editing of Paris.
@@elenanunez6617 Okay, there is a bit of shitty postproduction. But the show and soundquality is good.
@@heinzlotze9123 Didn’t I say EDITING? I clearly stated what sucks of the DVD.
I really love this reaction. That is what is supposed to happen when somebody is seeing a live show from Rammstein. I really got tears in my eyes because i want to see them so so so bad! And Till is amazing he is also a poet and wrote some books and stuff
"Mein Herz brennt - PianoVersion" plz
But first the official Video... both are really great masterpieces of art
Truly amazing video what a performance
Yes!
I concur with Doing the Original Video and then sliding into the piano version... as they seem to go together... you can hear the piano at the end of the original video version.
He has to react to the piano or song in general.
Seeing Rammstein live 3 times. It's the best experiences of my life. It gives me shivers every time
“Schnitzel with noodles man”
How is no one else using that?
because as a german native speaker , its nonsense hahah AND if you would be in a restaurant eating schnitzel and they serving you noodles as well , burn the restaurant
Because noone normal would even come close to eating that. Not in Germany, not in Austria, not in Czechia. Basically nowhere where schnitzel is usual.
@@fanta4897 It is one of those things you do at home when nothing else is left to combine. Actually not too bad with Bratensoße.
@@Mefistofy I refuse to believe that...
I am vehemently against profanity taboos, but that is the sort of fun alternative that I find acceptable
This is the song that turned me around regarding Rammstein :). Before this I considered them as kind of a one dimensional band using visuals to make them interesting but this chorus and displaying different singing styles got me diving into their catalogue and since then there has been no turning back.
Something about pausing right before the chorus bothers me. Christoph’s snare drum fill is clearly about to be succeeded by an epic moment and he pauses it. Nooooooo Lol.
You can see in his face that he is enjoying the lives so freaking much awesome video hope you do some more Rammstein reactions!!
I absolutely love your exploration and open mindedness about music you may not traditionally listen to. The excitement and joy makes me really happy. Keep on exploring and doing what you do. Because a lot of us can use a happy moment nowadays. May I recommend some System of A Down? Serj Tankian (lead singer) has an incredible voice.
Madison Square Garden is actually a quite small venue for a Rammstein concert. Concerts in he Square have about 20K attendance maximum.
Their largest concert was Rock on the Volga back in 2014 with approx 700.000 people attending.
Imagine that!
Thank you much for reacting. ;)
Rammstein is unique in this profession. They clearly know how to turn the wheel and manage to fascinate people without ridiculous cheesiness.
If you like, you can react to the official video "Deutschalnd" one or even the best produced Clip in music industry. In this song Rammstein rework German history, only in their own way.
Or "Mutter"... or just choose what you find interesting. There is actually hardly to find a bad song or video on the official channel.
What a trip. I can't imagine singing from that elevated disc. Nah, couldn't do it. And he does it well.
Great reaction
A real kicker for tils voice is a song called puppe from their most recent album has a real deep tone to it
Every person in this band is a creative genius, not only musically but visually as well.
it’s sung in German...German is a distorted sounding language as is. then along comes Till Lindemann and makes it his own.
plus, a new(er) sub, couple videos ago. love what you’re doing, Mr Lavigne. keep it up!
I really love your reaction and analysis with Rammstein! I usually never comment on videos, but I just wanted you to know that! I know that others have commented about it but Sept 25 was their 25th anniversary! I think you should check out some songs on their first album - Herzeleid (Du riechst so gut is my personal favorite). I could recommend so many more songs since they are all so amazing, (Sonne, Keine Lust, Waidmann's Heil, Puppe, Deustchland, Diamant, Klavier, Mein Teil, Pussy, Bück Dich, etc...) but it is all up to you!
On the Platform he is strapped. Have a look at his right foot at 4:05 in the original Video. See the Hand behind his right Foot and the suspension at 4:07? He might be a Maniac but he isnt tired of life.
cant see anything there
man that would not help a lot ,he would break leg on several places if he lose balans
There is no cable because someone would have to come on and clip him to it. If his foot was held firm and he fell, it would rip his leg off. Use some common sense.
If you watch the version from Hellfest Till uses the same rig Paul did for 'Ramm4' however while Paul as strapped on Till doesn't bother
@@Djarra The Hellfest platforms are huge and have a cable at either corner. The debate is whether he used safety in this performance.
I was at this show. It was BEYOND loud and the energy was non stop! If you ever get the chance to see Rammstein live, DO IT!!
in the beginning till got chosen for looks to be frontman (not kidding) by nature he is a drummer. flake actually mains the trumpet in private but does the keyboard for the band. to fight his stagefright (till) he once told, he uses a landmark behind the audience so he never really looks directly at them.
You may not be kidding, but you are wrong. Richard heard him sing and decided to invite him to the new band he was creating. The rest is history.
Nobody puts on a live show quite like Rammstein. It's pure theater. It's beautiful.
Great reaction ;-) I recommend "Mein Herz brennt" - official video or piano version, that's very impressive
What a charming reaction to an awesome band. :) I noticed your slightly headbanging - that's how it begins, hehe. I would love to see your reaction to "Rammstein - Rammlied (Live from Madison Square Garden)"!
Look up . " Mutter". by Rammstein. It's a slower song. shows Till's voice well
Mutter may be Richard's best stage performance on guitar, too. That whole piece is beautifully creepy.
I LIVE FOR YOUR RAMMSTEIN REACTIONS!!! I found your channel last week and I already watched all your videos hehe
If you are looking for another "special" german (and somewhat harder) band, I'd suggest Knorkator and their cover of Boney M.s "Ma baker" or one of their newest tracks like "Rette sich wer kann" or "Revolution" - I really like the mixture of different singingtechniques featured in some of their songs and their strange appearance on stage.
Keep up the great work, cheers!
These reactions are amazing!! I hope you do some more for them, they have so many different things to offer!
Rammstein. Hailing from former East Germany, named after Ramstein (one 'm') where a fighter jet crashed into the onlookers during an airshow. Dubbed Industrial Metal but according to Till Lindemann (singer) they make 'tanzmetal' (dance metal). Rammstein is often looked at with suspicion because the sound of marching boots and Germans still makes certain people uncomfortable. That and the fact they broach subjects that are considered touchy or even taboo. I like 'em.
You should absolutely check out Sonne and Mein Teil live for more impressive vocals and pyrotechnics. 😁
I've been lucky enough to see them live twice now. Their live shows are phenomenal.
Lindemann's side project is quite fun. He is such a strange character
He's very dirty minded and childish
I like few of his side projects songs. Never really got into them. I prefer rammstein. But I like Richards side band better.
I prefer 'interesting' to 'strange' LOL
@@Papa.EmeritusTerzo Grow up dude.
@@micahbell9093 Emigrate rocks
Love to see you to enjoy this too. Greetings from Germany.
При просмотре записей концертов Раммштайн , на глазах должны быть слёзы осознания, что тебя нет в той толпе ...
Каждый раз, когда пересматриваю Live aus Beelin, реву как тварь
Their liveshows are the stuff of legend
Till: purs fire on Flake while singing about BDSM
Ken: "WOW! YEAH!"
I think you found your band ;D
(greetings from another german)
Is it more torture then bdsm?
Yeah, I’ve also heard this isn’t about BDSM, for once:p
The text-line "Ich seh im Spiegel dein Gesicht" ("I see your face in the mirror") is a hint, that the Lyrics could be about only one person and not two diffrent people...
So BDSM is probably not the correct term.
Jo, fand ich auch zu lustig! 😂
Tills' voice is so amazing and this chorus is so amazing! I love this song, and all of their others too of course!!!
Til:Stacheldraht im Harnkanal
Me: OWWWWW
Yup.
Yay!! Thank you for doing more Rammstein. This was a better foray into Till's vocal offerings than the last one. I'm glad you enjoyed it!
Ich Love Til's clear vocal that show in " ohne dich"
I love RAMMSTEIN, and I love this react....I have lost count how many times I've watched this!!! Ken, YOU'RE THE BESTEST!!!!!
Concerning Till's stage fright: He uses all that pyro stuff to disattract people from looking at himself by making them watch all the pyros
Great reaction, looking forward to more Rammstein reacitons from you Ken!
