you ain´t seen nothing yet.

After a Rammstein concert I bought a T-Shirt "I SURVIVED a RAMMSTEIN concert in the first row !"

Wherever Rammstein performs in the world, fans can sing along with the German lyrics. Even in France. The band is known for its sensational live performances. The song singer, Till Lindemann, is a trained pyrotechnician and uses his knowledge a lot during the shows. What you might think is blood on his arm is a protective gel against the flames. Fun fact: The keyboardist runs on a treadmill and covers about 16 miles during a concert.

Fireworks are an integral part of many live songs of Rammstein. 😁 So if you'll watch more of them, there is a lot fire waiting for you. Lyrics of "Du hast": The first three words are "Du hast mich" (you have me) which at that moment doesn't make any sense in German. But it sounds (intentionally) the same as "Du hasst mich" (you hate me). Later in the song, the first three words are extended to a full sentence: "Du hast mich gefragt und ich hab nichts gesagt." (You asked me and I did not answer.) And then, to show what he was asked, the chorus is a wedding vow: "Willst Du bis der Tod euch scheidet treu ihr sein für alle Tage?" (Do you want to be faithful to her for all days until death do us part?) This is answered first by a kind of female voice "Ja" (yes) and afterwards by Till's harsh voice "Nein!" (No!). These - plus a slightly obscene word play on the wedding vow, that I will not explain here - are the whole lyrics (repeated a few times). If you want to see more of their (incredible) live performances I would suggest (in this sequence) Rammlied (live from Madison Square Garden) Engel (live from Madison Square Garden) Sonne (live at Rock im Park 2017) Links 2 3 4 (live from Madison Square Garden) Ich will (live from Hurricane Festival 2016) Ich tu dir weh (live from Madison Square Garden) (don't take the lyrics too serious) Mein Teil (live at Hurricane Festival 2013) Amazing official videos Sonne (Sun) heavy, screwed up fairy-tale Links 2 3 4 (left) partly heavy march Ich will (I want) heavy, simple, way to celebrity Spring! (Jump!) (fan-made animated version with english subtitles) slow, partly heavy, very dark sarcasm! Radio (Radio) catchy song (with serious background) Keine Lust (not in the mood) heavy, funny, slidely sad Mein Herz brennt (My heart burns) scary, nightmarish, very special Amerika (America) catchy, not a love song Newest official videos from their last album "Zeit" in sequence of the tracks on the album: Zeit (Time) slow, dark, melancholic, emotional Zick Zack (Snip Snap) catchy song, sarcastic, funny Angst (Fear) very Rammstein, scary, credits at the end are helpful to understand the message Dicke Titten (Big Boobs) heavy (most of the time), catchy, funny, credits are funny too (my view) Adieu (Goodbye) dark, sometimes heavy, emotional Last but not least the great (but not nice) video "Deutschland" which has a lot of references to (mostly unpleasent) parts of German history. Video, lyrics, and sound are great (my view) and work very well together. For many of Rammstein's videos there are English subtitles available ... and sometimes needed to understand what's going on. To find a lot of them, you may search on KZfaq for: "educated marine rammstein" + songname For live videos of Rammstein songs, www.youtube.com/@Bucksttabu/playlists is a good source. In case of Rammstein, precise translations of the lyrics is hard work (and sometimes not possible in subtitles), because they are playing many times with double meanings of words or slightly modify common German expressions and symbolic language pictures to invert or change their meanings. (That is even used in the very simple lyrics of "Du hast".) I wish you to enjoy your Rammstein journey.

It was 1997 when "Du Hast" was released, I was 4 years old and it blew my mind as a kid when I saw the video on MTV. I'll never forget that day and I will always remember when my Mom kept re-recording the video on VHS, so she can show my Dad once he came home from work. It blew his mind as well because we became huge fans ever since that day and Rammstein never disappointed us since. Now, fast forward 25 years later and I finally went to my first Rammstein concert here in NJ at MetLife Stadium. As in my Dad's honor, especially since it has been 10 years since he has have been gone, I made sure to not miss this show at all. I took my 64 year old rockstar Mom along with me because she's a metalhead herself and we couldn't miss this opportunity. Plus, Mom and I just couldn't stop headbanging to every song Rammstein played and we were in section 226, which was an excellent experience and I uploaded some videos myself on KZfaq. By the way, to all of you on here, Rammstein is one of my all time favorite bands and definitely the greatest band you will ever since live, which is why I recommend you all to one day go to their concert. 🎸🤘

There's a saying, "when Rammstein comes to town, everyone speaks German"! Demonstrated by a giant French audience singing along in German! Rammstein are known for their epic live shows w tons of pyrotechnics! They also produce movie-like videos! Not sure if you noticed, but keyboardist, Flake (pron: FLAW-Kawh) is on a treadmill! He can walk up to 17miles per show!

I've seen them live two times. It's crazy performance and the heat from all the fire is wild

Have seen them a total of 6 times; 4 in the UK, 2 in Germany. Can assure you it passes regs (and is beyond spectacular) : )

These guys are in their 60's and they are still rocking the house. The singer is a certified pyro technician so that is why they have all the fire and fireworks in their shows.

I had the honour of seeing them live in Coventry last year. Believe me, this is nothing compared to when you see the whole concert. Mein Teil, Puppe, Ich tu dir wei, all of those live make this look like a relaxed tea party. Rammstein are beyond amazing. Their official videos are tremendous too. As you can tell, I am somewhat of a fan of theirs 😊😁

And that's Rammstein being tame. "Feuer Frei" live is utterly insane, for example. You feel the heat on the ranks - not to mention the "fire zone".

I have been to HUNDREDS of concerts in my 40+ years on this rock, and Rammstein was by far the best live act I've been to. Their stage presence is unparalleled.

The first time I saw Rammstein, I was towards the back of the crowd and even then I could feel the heat from the pyrotechnics. Last time I saw them, I left with singed eyebrows. :) Definitely high on my list of favorite concerts - they are amazing live.

Oh you should see what passes UK regulations these days😅 and check out the 2022 performance of Mein Teil at Cardiff. Nobody beats Rammstein when it comes to live performances. They're spectacular. Du Hast means you have. The first line of the song is basically, you've asked me and I've said nothing. It's a play on wedding vows where his partner says yes but he says no. Du Hast, as I say means you have, du hasst means you hate so phonetically it could be interpreted as you hate me etc. It's a homophone so needs context for understanding. Glad you enjoyed and welcome to the Rammstein rabbit hole!

They have done this (fireworks and all) in the UK, so it’s definitely compliant with H&S regs. 🔥 💥

I’m so happy to see so much love for Flake lately from reactors.

"Du hast mich gefragt" means "You asked me", but "Du hast mich" can also be understood as "Du hasst mich" which means "You hate me". It is a nice play with word. It is a song about a guy denying a woman wish to marry him.

When you like fireworks, the live version of Benzin, or the 1997 live performance of the track "Live aus Berlin" are incredible.

our boys didn't waste their time during the epidemic!their new album is just great!!

I'm in Ireland and due to health and safety regs, they can't perform here. They're allowed in the North of Ireland, because Rammstein still won't be the scariest thing in Belfast. I'm going to see them in Paris in July

Best live band on the planet! Seen them three times and it’s the three best concerts ever. A must see!

This band is absolutely amazing live. So many good songs, an excellent stage show. Lots of fire and pyro. It is amazing. Go see them live preferably in an outdoor venue.

This song is about whether a person who want to get you to swear it eternal allegiance "you have" or "you hates". In German, "du hast mich" (you have me) and "du hasst mich" (you hate me) sound similar. Regardless of the message of the lyrics, which may allow possibilities for more interpretations other than mine, the performance of this song in Paris that Rammstein put in there was just powerful.

What amazes me is how they still bring so much energy to a song they have been playing live for decades this is their first big hit and they still play it every show. I was lucky enough to see them live last Sept in San Antonio hands down best live show I have ever seen. And the Pyro at their show is amazing you feel the heat and smoke throughout the entire show.

I've been to the Rammstein concert in Prague at May 15th 2022, the first concert of their tour. That was one of the best days in my life beside the birth of my sons! We were standing about 120 m from the stage and the fireworks were so f***** hot in our faces. EPIC!

Oh yes they do shows like this in the uk, they're amazing to see live! Everyone loves flacke the keyboardist. He does little skits and you can always tell that hes having a great time. They've been together for 30 years and ive been a huge fan for 20 of them, the lead singer is 60 now and the rest are in their 50s. It made me laugh that you were surprised more at the fireworks than the massive flames 😂. Its amazing to see in person

I remember when they blew up! I was a teenager in the 90s and we had the beginnings of the industrial music like Rammstein, Prodigy, Chemical Brothers, Crystal Method, even some of NIN.

You can feel the heat on your face even in the last row.

The huge columns of fire are also real, btw. Only the lightning effects on the keyboard were done in post production.

I saw them live in San Francisco around the year 2000. I was in the mosh pit near the stage and he pulls out a flame thrower and could feel the wave of heat when he used it. It seemed crazy af to have a flamethrower in a small indoor venue but it was also really memorable.

Rammstein are fantastic live. They also do some unbelievable official videos. Well worth checking out

as a die-hard Rammstein fan I've seen loads of reaction videos but yours is seriously one of the best. I envy you for the experience of discovering the band for you and your reaction is just honest and I had to laugh heartily at your horror. By the way, I also think your split screen is very successful, I haven't seen it that way either. Hope to see more Rammstein videos from you.

Such a simple riff can make something sound so badass

Absolutely love your energy! It's literally oozing through the screen and I'm all here for it! More Rammstein reactions pleeease!!

Rammstein are a performance art group. They are so much more than just a rock band, I look forward to seeing you learn all about them. Ich liebe Rammstein!!

This song was HUGE in the mid/late 90's in the states, despite the fact that none of us understood the language and the internet was too new to have translations. You asked what "Du Hast" means, and we had to go decades without knowing! Also the stuff on his arms, I think is a gel to protect him from all the pyro.

Rammstein is ALWAYS a great show!!

The Song "du hast" is a play on words, because "du hast mich" means "you have me" but it sounds exactly the same and is almost spelled the same as "du hasst mich" which means "you hate me". The fun thing is when Til sings things like "du, du hast, du hast mich, du hast mich gefragt und ich hab nichts gesagt" because for every german speaker it sounds like "you, you hate, you hate me, you have asked me and I have said nothing"

Du hast mich gefragt. You have asked me. This song is about the marriage vows in German. The lead singer, Till Lindemann is a qualified Pyrotechnician, so all the fireworks are his doing.

Lead vocalist Til is a pyrotechnics expert, their shows are full of fire and pyro, you haven’t seen anything yet!! The guy on the keyboards runs on a treadmill, he says it’s a way to keep busy while he’s playing (to not get bored)

From what I've researched, the lead singer is also a licensed pyrotechnition. So naturally he fires a fuckin rocket into the crowd that returns and creates the craziest explosion behind him. Amazing.

This is an absolute master piece in terms of live performance

Till Lindemann, the lead singer is also a certified pyrotechnician. He creates all the "fireworks" displays. As we say here in Texas; Y'all be safe.

Great reaction - the look on your face is priceless!

Hi 😁 i have seen RAMMSTEIN in concert in the uk 5 different times and every time theres Fireworks pyros everything its a fantastic concert i highly recommend going to see them if you can .

Best live band in the world. Pyrotechnics are always awesome. Seen them 6 times over 20 years, and they have always been magnificent.

It is a wordplay between "du hast" and "du hasst mich" first one mean "you have" the other mean "you hate me". Rammstein does realy nice shows, the show of "Mein Teil" is in my opinion one of the best.

I love this video and your reaction is why I watch reactors. I am an old man and having a bunch of French people following the lead of a German and yelling in German freaks me out. Be well.

One of the first paragraphsof a Rammstein contract states "No fire. No show". I've worked several of their shows when they come the US and it's always a great time.

"Du hast mich" is some kind of wordplay. First "Du hast mich" means "You got me", but the same pronunciation is "Du haßt mich", which means "You hate me". So the crowd (french audience shouting the German words at the beginning) and the lead singer played around with these different meanings.

Great reaction has always my friend love and respect from the UK 👍👍👍👍👍👍🌟😀😀 amazing channel 👍

I really love your reaction. I have been a Rammstein fan since 2015 (I was 14 years old) and finally saw them live in 2022. Their shows have been improved since the Paris concert. More pyros and flamethrowers really made the deal in their most recent concerts. But in overall, it's Rammstein. No matter which show you have been, every show is breathtaking and amazing.

They do use fireworks in their UK shows - when they played Coventry in 2022, they could be heard 11 miles away! 🤘🤘

'Pass Regulations' I'm in the UK myself MMM - Their show in Cardiff few years back BLEW my mind and yes, just like Paris (UK was almost as good but Paris Rammstein was/is my number 1 concert I ever attended) did to me, there were all the fireworks / flame and everything we had in Paris. You won't miss a thing watching them performing here in the UK hun. They're at Wembley this year, this month I believe?

Engel is another Rammstein song you should check out. Especially the live version. You think this show was dangerous with the fireworks, the rig he wears in Engel will blow your mind.

I saw Rammstein LIVE in Cardiff (Wales) in 2005 and they are just awesome !!!

I saw them in the UK last year and seeing them again this year. They're amazing live! Throughly enjoyable show and the loveliest fans ever ❤

Rammstein are at the top their game - in intensity, pyrotechnics and performance. They come from a long line of European industrial performance / rock music - Einstürzende Neubauten, Archaos, Mutoid Waste Company, Test Dept, Faust, World Domination Enterprises and even further back to the Futurists Art of Noises and Shostakovich. There is a rich heritage in European Industrial Music - and Rammstein are currently the most accomplished and certainly the most successful commercially.

Great live band OMG!

I don't normally like reactors that keep stopping videos but this girl has a lovely vibe

"There needs to be MORE FIRE. Nobody must ever forget Rammstein."

Rammstein's most recent US Tour was all stadium shows because of their, shall we say, overwhelming use of pyrotechnics. But as others have said, this is "light" use of pyro for this band. After an incident involving pyro in the 90's, some.if not all of the band members became certified pyrotechnicians so they have sole control over the fire. It also eliminated the middle man saying, "that would be cool, but are you sure?". Looking forward to more Rammstein from your channel!

You should definitely check out their performance of Mein Teil during the 2013 Hurricane Festival

if you love the Keyboard player, react to their other live performances. as he loves to get stuck in with the guanine pig stuff 1 live show he sits in a giant metal cauldron and duck into it while the singer fires a flame thrower above his head. honestly they are probably the Fist aiders worst nightmare :')

I loved your reaction and I hope you'll dive deeper into Rammstein music. They are the best band in the world to me and the best live band in the world objectively. What you've seen in this video is just a small piece of what they do on stage.

I saw them many years ago. The guitarists had flame throwers, there were lots of other pyrotechnics and they all fired off rockets at the end. This wasn't in a big stadium, but the Manchester Apollo.

On the topic of UK regulations: There are news articles about a Rammstein concert in Coventry that was so loud that you could hear it (and the police got noise complaints) from over 10miles away.

That keyboard player is pure gold!

Till, the lead singer, he is an actual trained pyrotechnician.

The Chorous is "Du hast mich gefragt und ich hab nichts gesagt", Meaning "You have asked me and I have said nothing." The whole song is a clever play on German Wedding Vows.

If you think that´s crazy, have a look at "Engel " live at Madison Square Garden. in a Concert, even in the last Row you feel the Heat from all the Fire at the Stage

A short summary about the catch of the song. First there is a dual meaning in the phrase "Du hast" - "You have", "Du hasst " " You hate". Anolther part of the myrics "Willst Du bis der Tod uns scheidet... NEIN!" "Will you untill death does us apart..... NO!" are parts of the wedding oath in german. The girlfriend of one of the bandmembers confronted him with either leave the band and marry her, or stay in the band and she will leave him. This song was made in the aftermath.

The leadsiinger is a certified pyrotechnichian. It already happend that they weren't allowed to do their show in the US due to the fireworks

It says in their contracts, " no fireworks and fire, no concert"

That's just Rammstein.😂 I've seen this live ten times. it's awesome. really awesome.

Du hast means you hate, but it also sounds like du haste which means you have, so the song is a play between those meanings when it comes to all the other lyrics.

Oh you haven't seen anything yet lol, welcome to 🔥Rammstein 🔥 !! My thoughts on "all this"? Absolutely Funking EPIC! I Love Rammstein, I have seen them live multiple times over the last 20+ years and they are always awesome, ther live shos are just amazing, legendary! And there is always fire! Even the indoor UK shows of the past had the fire, amazing pyro. Now they are doing stadium tours, including this year 2023 with a European Stadium Tour - no UK dates though. But if you have a passport and can travel see if you can get tickets to one of their shows because they really are amazing

Check out a live performance of their song Freur Frei!

Rammstein are a complete 'whole' They work together, do their own thing, then come back together. They are, literally, the last 'Stadium' band.

Good job girl! I love it!

The band vocalist Till Lindemann is a trained pyrotechnician. He got the degree after one minor accident during one of their performances and it is such an integral part of their whole performance that he decided to be also a professional pyrotechnician. That's why they are able to use these props. Rammstein \m/ Cheers from Finland.

Rammstein will set people on fire mid-song during their live shows. It's awesome

The story behind the fireworks is rather sad: as the band‘s name refers to an aeroplane accident at Ramstein Air Base in 1988 where the aircraft part crashed burning into the crowd that killed 70 people. That is why fire plays a central role in their performance.

Will see them 5 times live this year. Greatest live band ever 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼

lovely reaction. They are amazing and the fire is very carefully planned with Til being a trained pyro guy (lead singer)

Definitely check out the music video Deutschland by Rammstein.

Rammstein's pyrotechnics are tested in advance by the authorities in every (!) country in the world and found to be safe. Also in the UK. Otherwise they wouldn't be allowed to perform at all, because the whole show is an infernal, magnificent mixture of music and pyrotechnics.

Wait until Till the singer comes out with that long jacket and sets himself on fire while singing. Or his firework boots. IT is an experience to see this.

du hast has 2 meaning. It means "you have" but also "you hate". Rammstein likes to play with double meanings. He is also a pyrotechnican.

2:38 The text simply goes: "Du hast mich gefragt und ich hab nichts gesagt" - "You have asked me and I have said nothing". "Willst du, bis der Tod euch sheidet, treu ihr sein fur alle Tage? Nein!" - "Will you, until death do you (both) apart, be true to her for all days? No!" The first line builds up like "Du. Du hast. Du hast mich". "Du hast mich" misleadingly sounds like "you have me", but then (as someone already mentioned) there is this German wordplay that "Du hast mich" - "you have me" sounds exactly like "Du hasst mich" - "you hate me". This dissolves into the full "Du hast mich gefragt" - "You have asked me". So it is a short text, but with some clever associations in it. Rammstein is a really good heavy band, but be aware they are a bit of shock rockers. And I love the keyboardist too 👍

Nice reacting Becky, I would suggest you follow it up with Engel, it’s a bit like this but on a different theme. There’s also one that’s a bit naughty called Dicke Titten, it’s where Til plays an old blind man who’s looking for company in his old age 😜

The meaning is changing. In German 'du hast' = you have got. But: 'du hasst mich' = you hate me. Last: 'du hast mich gefragt' = you have asked me. Great play on words in this song.

37k views already after 7 days. That should tell you the Rammstein fans want more! Live from Madison Square Garden - Ich Tu Dir Weh, and also the song Engel from there as well Official music video for Deutschland Go go!

To put this pyro into perspective, I saw Metallica a few years ago in an NFL football stadium. We sat all the way at the top, basically sitting on top of the stadium, itself. The stage was all the way down on the opposite side of the field. It was difficult to make out individual people without the giant screens showing what the cameras were seeing. When they used pyro, which was nothing compared to what you saw in this video, I could feel the rush of heat on my face. Again, I was sitting in the nosebleeds of an NFL STADIUM and could feel the heat from pyro being used on the field over 70 yards away... These guys have pryo that puts Metallica's to shame shooting DIRECTLY ABOVE THEIR HEADS! Absolutely insane.

Pyrotechnics at a show has been going on since the 70's. KISS was the first band to do it. Anyone else followed their lead.

du hast = you have and du hasst mich = you hate me double meaning at this song! :) and hello from Germany.

the greatest live band ever ... really!

Hi Reactor Du Hast means. You have.. And the big love just in this performance is the France public as sing in germany languish..its almost impossible to get answers from a france if you talking english in there home town.. THX for a wonderful reaction on DU HAST 🇸🇪❤️🇸🇪

"Du hast" = "You have" in English ...it is basically the start of the sentence "Du hast mich gefragt" meaning "You have asked me" which is broken down into bits and pieces starting with just "Du" then folllowed with "Du hast" followed with "Du hast mich" and so on till the whole sentence is revealed and after that it will be then responded with "Und ich hab nichts gesagt" meaning literally "And I have said nothing" ..Those 2 sentences are the first and only stanza The chorus is basically made out of 2 questions from the traditional German church wedding vow asked in front of the altar.. 1."Willst Du bis der Tod euch scheidet treu sein für alle Tage?" literally "Do you want to be loyal for all days till death will tear you both apart?" which is then answered with a passionate loud "Nein/No" twice instead of "Yes/Ja" 2. "Willst Du bis der Tod euch scheidet sie lieben auch in schlechten Tagen?" literally "Do you want to love her also on bad days till death will tear you both apart?" which is also answered passionately with a loud "Nein/No" twice instead of "Yes//Ja" Those are all the lyrics...basically painting the picture of one asking an other to marry him but the other didn´t answer that very specific question with a specific answer but regardless they ended up in front of the altar anyway where the other then blew the wedding. Important to mention is that during breaking up the first sentence into single words there is then the unfinished sentence "Du hast mich" which is repeated twice and that snip sounds exactly like "Du hasst mich" meaning "You hate me" .. and because that whole sentence wasn´t reavealed fully which the audience doesn´t know yet at first listening so the listener is led into the wrong direction about the meaning what was said ...thinking "Somebody hates someone" although actually that wasn´t said at all..until the last word "gefragt"/"asked" of that sentence is revealed....although in context to the meaning of the whole song which opens up after the chorus that intensional misleading makes then sense in meaning as well...of course the on a wedding at the altar left behind one will probably "hate" his spouse/very likely from now on "Ex - spouse" for doing that.

I had once heard that the lead singer Till Lindemann had previously learned pyrotechnics. In addition, the band members are said to be rubbed with oil.
