This means to me so much more than the final version

Till is truely a poet.

"Doch meine Tränen sieht man nicht / sie fließen hinter dem Gesicht / und werden bis zum Sonnenschein / der Tau in deinen Lenden sein." Only Till can write something beautiful like this...

Oh my god, this is so much better than the album version!

what I love about Rammstein besides how they make music is how different they it can get, such a beautiful ballad

I think the duet version is also good but this version is... Just amazing man

The tone of his voice makes it way better

I'm going to be honest here. Both versions are amazing but I do wish he would've kept these lyrics instead.

the demo's of Was ich Liebe, Stirb Nicht Vor Mir, and Eisenmann are some of my favorite songs they ever had. The real version of this is great, 2 soulmates that maybe never meet; this version is like an incel on the hopium that he'll find something that's never going to happen.

I want an HD version of this, c'mon Til release it! This is SO much better than the released version

The guitars sound how trekking along apathetically from uneventful day to uneventful day feels. That feeling then stirs up an even greater feeling of longing in me, as if I am thirsting for something outside of my ultimately pointless routine that I will never obtain. I am trapped in a one way trip to the grave. The music, not being decidedly “sad”, makes it even more painful. The instrumentation displays shades beyond direct sadness, it scores the tragedy of the journey. The trip that’s damned from the start. There is so much in the music itself that I love without even getting into the lyrical component and meaning of the song as it's written. Combined with Till's poetic lyrics delivered by his special brand of rawness and unbridled emotion, this version cements itself as the best version for me. This song moves me and I adore it. I thank you for the upload.

i like it better then the final version

i read somewhere that the demo actually was actually sung along with Bobo (previously collaborated with Rammstein in other songs), same as this case, completely in german... and the band actually prefers that version too... however there's no release of it

Ich liebe Rammstein

how was this not the album version? are you kidding?! this is better than the album one, seriously, they should have put THIS in there.

This is way better than the final version :) The type of tone/tune I thought it would be after looking at the title.

I love this song... I wish that it would be released cleaner so that you can hear it better... much better than the album version.

Well, I'm off to go cry forever now.

I love the final Solo, is awesome

Pure poetry.

I'm sure that I'm not the only one that prefer this version, this is beautiful!!! ;-;

The recording sounds rough I'm not sure if that is intentional but it gives the song a more impact in a weird way

I hate to admit that... I like this version more...

I like the final version of this song but this one… it’s just so much more touching

Die Nach öffnet ihren Schoß The night opens her lap Das Kind heißt Einsamkeit The child's name is loneliness Es ist kalt und regungslos It is cold and motionless Ich weine leise in sein Kleid I cry softly into his clothes Ich weiß nicht wo du bist I don't know where you are doch ich weiß dass es dich gibt But I know that you exist Ich weiß dass irgendwann I know that sometime irgendwer mich liebt Someone will love me Ich warte hier I wait here (Stirb) (Die) Ich warte hier I wait here Stirb nicht vor mir Don't die before I do Ich bin immer noch allein I'm still alone Und wieder lieg ich wach And again I lie awake Niemand schläft mit mir ein No one falls asleep with me Wie jede Nacht steig ich aufs Dach As every nicht I climb onto the roof Ich weiß nicht wo du bist I don't know where you are doch ich weiß dass es dich gibt But I know that you exist Ich weiß dass irgendwann I know that sometime irgendwer mich liebt Someone will love me Ich warte hier I wait here Stirb nicht vor mir Don't die before I do Ich warte hier I wait here Stirb nicht vor mir Don't die before I do Doch meine Tränen sieht man nicht But no one sees my tears Sie fließen hinter dem Gesicht They flow behind the face Und werden bis zum Sonnenschein And until the sunshine Der Tau in deinen Lenden sein The dew will be in your loins Ich warte hier I wait here Stirb nicht vor mir Don't die before I do Ich warte hier I wait here Stirb nicht vor mir Don't die before I do Ich warte hier I wait here (Stirb) (Die) Ich warte hier I wait here Stirb nicht vor mir Don't die before I do

I much prefer this version with Till singing on his own. The other version with the female singer is good but this version is much better I think

This is simply the best..rammstein forever

This song reminds me of Soda Stereo: Ella usó mi cabeza cómo un revólver. They have that heartbroken energy. The beat even has that depressing sound to it. Listening to such a song causes feelings of isolation and sadness. You truly understand their pain upon listening to the song. I wish they would record a proper studio version of this (alongside the demos of Biest [Tier] and Was ich Liebe [Pussy]. Can't forget Schwarzes Glas). Songs like this deserve more recognition. Sure, the final product is great, but these songs are just as great. It's sad to see such strong songs go to waste like this because they couldn't see the potential in them. I hope one day they'll remaster and release these songs officially.

Lyrics are much better and much more touching.

First time I heard this, I didn't know they could be this chill lol

Stirb nicht vor mir, Rammstein

so much better than the officially released version.

feels better than the original!

Прекрасно звучит. Так тепло и красиво. Лучше оригинала.

Der beste Rammstein Song

beautiful.

This is phenomenal. They really need to record a final version of this and put it on an album. It's amazing.

Where did you get this from? Also, Rammstein, please, for the love of god, release this as an alternate version. Please. Doesn't have to be a cd, just record with your own equipment if you have any, set up a small crowd funding whatever and release it online. Sharleen's voice is very nice but it just doesn't fit into the song!

Sehrt fantastish. Danke shoen Till

I don't know who you are... but I know that you exist... where are you?

this is beautiful, i have never felt like song represents my life any more than this song. i love rammstein for doing this. XD

This is heart rending. You can feel the sorrow, the loneliness.

mein beerdigungssong......

Love so much this song!!! Heart ♥ ♥ ♥

This is so deep ...

holy shite das is erstaunlich!

Its really cool i like the raw sound good song!

Such a better version! I really don't like the final version, it just seems too cheesy with the lady. This is more of what it should have been intended.

I love both versions but I really wish they kept the warbling sounding guitar part at the end in the final ver

The end motif around 4:00, was that or something similar were ever used in any work of Rammstein? If yes what? Thank you

I relate to this :(

Danke Shon!

Why can't we find this in not potato quality?

A track this is fantastic " Stirb Nicht Vor Mir /No mueras antes que yo 🇩🇪🇺🇸🇸🇻👌😉

Amó esta versión

Oh man warum ist das nicht so veröffentlicht worden?! Oder zumindest nur leicht geändert. Schade

is even better than the studion version omg this just blows my minde omg 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘 hope thay re do it like this again

Me Encanta Mucho 🖤

Where can I find other versions like this. I searched a lot and couldn't find it, it came out randomly. concert etc

Es sind einfach Götter

Stirb nicht vor mir Single including both versions and an instrumental version. Come on Till do it.

i cannot understand that this version is better that the Ronserot's version

Does anyone know where/if I can find the original song? They all sound like they were recorded on faulty equipment

das war immer unser lied ...

Lubie to

La letra me gustó mucho más que la que entró en la versión final

Too bad the band didn't like this version. While I do love the story behind the released version, Sharleen's voice doesn't suit the song AT ALL. They should've kept Bobo's. This version is better.

uhr leiwand ..ich weine um die liebe

What if i told you that i can completely remaster this song?

The only thing I like better than this in the final version is the music at the beginning

Still don't know her name... Maybe she die before me...

It's I cry softly into time this needs translated again

I know she don't exist :(

😍😍😍😍😍😍

2:49 , esas líneas no están incluidas en la álbum versión creo.. hubiera ido bien ahí , ya sea cantado por ella o él

NO MAMEN TA MAS CHINGONA LA OTRA

Here s another version with the lyrics. Fanmade. For fun: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/jNihnruUvtbSenU.html

Official song on my channel!

besser als dad original...........

I like this one better

Me gusta mas está versión

I thought it would be the song with Bobo...

Me gusta más esta versión

cocain

Parece meu Nunes,meu amor

I do prefer the one with sharleen for some reason

More of Olli here. Not their usual mix. I like it. In fact I like them both - I've had chat-only romances and the other is perfect for that. This is more Till's personal heartbreak.

Hmm, I'm listening to this version for the first time and I suddenly like it. I consider "Strirb nicht" the worst song of the album, but this... This is way much better. That's a pity they've remade this song eventually.

I always interpret this version as Part 2 from the one with the female vocalist where the man's soulmate has died. Mainly cause Till sings alone and this version sounds gloomier.

lass es

soii oscuridada

I think rammstein is short for rammsis einstein 😂😂

Translation is far too suicidal

Demo is better por mi

Where's the better version gone? Really wanted to listen to this song. Load of crap comes up
