The catholic church/monks feasting on Geramnia/The People was the most powerful scene for me.

Most epic music video in history!

Hi, I'm from Germany. Rammstein is playing a classic "Industrial Metal" style. A 50-50 mix of synthesizers and hard metal guitars. A big part of the German history in one video. The black woman as Germania. Germania is the personification of the German nation. It isn't and wasn't a goddess or Joan of Arc. The glass coffin: It is Little Snow White from the Grimm-fairytales....and from their own video "Sonne". Only with black skin and in space. The piano song at the end is the song "Sonne", too. The words "Germania Magna" at the beginning are a Roman name for the area of Germany, that wasn't conquered by the Roman Empire at that time. Germania Superior and Germania Inferior were the Roman conquered areas (Roman provinces) of Germany. The line in this song "So jung und doch so alt" (So young and yet so old) means: Germany as a unified state is very young. A unified German nation is only existing from 1871 onwards. Before that year of unification Germany was made of countless, little mini-states and the people identified first and foremost as Prussians, Hessians, Saxons etc, etc, etc. and only in a second line of thought they had a lose sense of being somehow Germans, too, as a kind of unifying second identity. So the area & the landscape where the Germans are living and the Germans themselves as a people...are thousands of years old. But only recently, in 1871, there was a unified Germany as one single state. So Germany as a unified state is very young...and at the same time it is thousands of years old. The battle of the Teutoburg forest against the Romans (and Rammstein as Roman soldiers and Germans alike). That battle is of ABSOLUTE importance for the German history. The hanged bodies in the trees were the beaten Roman soldiers, who were gruesome sacrificed to the Germanic gods...and were partly nailed to the trees. The Varus-(Teutoburg)-Battle was already in 9 AD. In 16 AD were the vengeance campaigns of commanding field general Germanicus under Emperor Tiberius Augustus. Therefore we see here the arrival of the Roman troops of Germanicus and they are watching their dead comrades hanging in the trees or getting their heads chopped off (for nailing them to the trees). In reality the Romans under Germanicus found only the bones of the Varus army in the various ways they were slaughtered, sacrificed and displayed at the trees. Slaves were liberated even decades after the battle. After the scenes with the Romans we saw the Hindenburg Zeppelin disaster (the burning Zeppelin in the background). The moustaches and clothing from the fight scene are from WWI and post WWI years. From the working class people in WWI and the roaring 20's. In the WWII years later on this kind of big bushy moustache was already out of fashion. The falling banknotes in the prison are not about corruption. That scene is about the hyper-inflation of the 1920's, that took away the savings of the Germans and left them in deep poverty and desperation. One had to pay a loaf of bread with a handcart full of nearly worthless banknotes back then and it hit the German people deep down inside and in their souls. Especially the poor ones and the simple workers. The V2 rocket (first manmade object in space) as technical triumph of the German spirit...and at the same time the killing of the concentration camp prisoners in the bunker factories below the mountains during the production of that rocket. This scene in the video could be a representation of a very specific concentration camp. It was "Mittelbau-Dora" below the Kohnstein mountain. A mixture between a big, huge bunker factory for V1 and V2 rockets and a concentration camp. The concentration camp inmates had several different markings for different kinds of convicts and their "crimes" sown to their chests, like it was in reality, too. A pink triangle for homosexuals, the star of David for Jews and two of them were marked with the double-triangles for Jehovas Whitnesses. The book burnings of the Nazis and the burning of the witches of the church. In the same scene with the book burning there is EVEN MORE going on. The cooperation of the church with the Nazis, when the priest with the cross embraces the Nazi SA-man. The scene with the sign with the Hammer and a pair of compasses in a circle of wheat is the sign of the GDR (DDR). The socialist German state in the east that existed before the German reunification. Therefore it was Karl Marx in the background in the scene with the tank (not the scene at the concentration camp). The scene with Rammstein wielding guns (the pumpgun) and taking Germania hostage was about leftwing terrorism of the 1970's. The terrorists were called the RAF (Rote Armee Fraktion). My interpretation of the red scanner-like beams: There are two different kinds of beams. The massive straight red light beam that goes up into the heavens AND there were those smaller, thinner "scanner" beams. Aliens (or humans from the future) are scanning the whole German history. Like some real scientists are scanning and excarvating ancient Mexican or Egyptian statues, for example. The massive red light beam is the red ribbon of time that ties together all the historical events. PS: As for the dogs: Germans are fanatical dog lovers. We are a dog-owner nation. The dog is a firm part of Germany. PPS: They didn't eat the body of the woman and her inner organs, even if it really looked that way. They were eating the national dish of Germany, that was put on the body of the black woman: Sauerkraut, Kassler & sausages. In my opinion it symbolizes the church eating itself fat on the goods and values and food of Germany during the simple people (farmers, simple workers etc) lived a long time in a kind of hell of poverty and serfdom (the red fetish area below the table with Germania on it). But that eating scene could indeed have a double meaning. It could represent the 30 years war, that was fought for religious reasons and depopulated large areas of Germany. It forced the people to commit canibalism because nobody was there anymore to produce food. Except the fat, wealthy people of the church, of course. They were still able to eat enough. Only the simple people at the bottom (farmers etc) died from hunger and had to fight and die in that war. The 30 years war was the biggest catastrophe in Germany until WWI happened. PPPS: The short scene with the dogs and their gas masks = WWI, where in reality animals (messenger dogs & horses) AND soldiers were wearing gas masks, too. PPPPS: The puppies at the end are Leonberger dogs. The Leonbergers nearly went extinct during WWI and WWII. PPPPPS: The black woman in the prison was dressed in a Prussian uniform with a Prussian helmet. Till sings the famous, often misinterpreted, line of the "Deutschlandlied" (Song of the Germans), that is not forbidden in Germany but simply isn't sung anymore in our modern national anthem. Till sings in his version the line "Deutschland über allen" (Germany above everybody) What is a BIG change to the real line in the orginal Deutschlandlied-song. In the original Deutschlandlied song it is written as "Deutschland über alles" (Germany above everything). The real, whole line of that old Deutschlandlied goes "Deutschland, Deutschland über alles. Über alles in der Welt" (Germany, Germany above everything. Above everything in the world). This line is often misinterpreted by many people as chauvinism and as a looking down upon all other countries on this planet. But that is wrong and not many people know about that in Germany and elsewhere. The writer of that famous line didn't meant it in a chauvinistic way. When that song was written, Germany was divided into umphteenth mini-states, what made Germany relative powerless and defenseless. Therefore the task of German unification was the goal above any other goal for all Germans (at least the writer of the song meant it that way). So the main goal for all Germans had to be the united Germany. The goal of "(united) Germany above everything else". That was, how that line was meant by the writer of the song. The line isn't forbidden, like many people wrongly think. It's simply not sung anymore and not part of the official anthem of modern Germany anymore. This has NOT its reason in the seemingly chauvinist meaning of "Deutschland über alles", like many people wrongly think. This whole stanza of the Deutschlandlied isn't sung anymore, because in other parts of the stanza are borders and landscapes mentioned, that aren't German borders and landscapes anymore. We want to live in peace with the people and countries, who are now living in those former German lands and therefore we don't sing about those old borders and landscapes anymore. It has nothing to do with the "Deutschland über alles" line in that stanza, like many people wrongly are thinking. Finally: The scenes I'm now talking about are pretty dark and low light. The WWII submarine in the submarine bunker during the astronauts are walking by with the glass coffin. I think, the choice of the black woman as main actress was made, because: a) it makes any accusations of racism and fascism against Rammstein useless b) she represents one colour of the German flag and she is wearing the rest of the colours of our German flag as makeup and jewellery and clothes on her body: Black, Red and Gold c) it provokes many people EVEN MORE 😄 Greetings Mega

Fantastic to see your channel grow,you deserve it.

Complicated Relation towards your own country comes across Well in this Video/ Song/ lyrics. The Song "Zeit" is also Epic and a worth while Journey.

As an native older German i understand the contexts of History in this video and others. In mostly all of their songs, they are able to put a finger into someones wound, we are not Perfect Human Beings. Not everybody like to see himself in a Mirror. For example "Ich tu dir weh" a relation between an Sado& Maso maybe fillout their needs. Who im am to rule about them. I remember the first reaction of the Trailer in the Press "Scandal!". After the full was release, a well known "Jewish" German Journalist called this a "Masterpiece" Silence.... Everybody individual or state can erase the History.

That's the full German history in the video.!

I saw this video probabaly milion times , I saw this song performing live twice…and it still gives me goosebumps ❤

🙏🤝🇩🇪🤝🙏👍🫶👏👏👏👏👏 more Rammstein ……-they make the best Musikvideos

Now I want Leonberger dog ❤❤

I'll try to summarize the scenes. I don't have to be right about everything either. The Woman is the Goddess Germania, Symbol of Germany/ Deutschland In the so-called Battle of the Teutoburg Forest, also known as the Battle of Varus or Battle of Hermann, Germanic tribes led by the Cheruscan Prince destroyed three Roman legions After the First World War there was an eventful afterlife with fist fights; the pugilists earned some money to live on for themselves and their families The Hindenburg Drama. Germany had the largest airships (zepelins named after the builder). There was a great disaster in New York. To this day it is not clear whether it was an accident or an attack. Hammer and sickle symbolizes the German Democratic Republic (division after World War II) The monks symbolize the time of the 30 Years' War The Thirty Years' War from 1618 to 1648 was a conflict for hegemony in the Holy Roman Empire and Europe that began as a religious war and ended as a territorial war. Start: Second Prague Defenestration Outcome: Peace of Westphalia; Peace of Münster According to estimates, the population of Germany fell from 16.5 million in 1618 to 10.5 million in 1648 The hyperinflation of 1923 Driven by the reparations payment by the victorious powers in the Peace of Versailles, which made Hitler's seizure of power possible Examples of price decline On June 9, 1923 in Berlin: 1 egg - 800 marks 1 liter of milk - 1440 marks 1 kilo of potatoes - 5000 marks 1 tram ride - 600 marks 1 dollar was equal to 100,000 marks. On December 2, 1923 in Berlin: 1 egg - 320 billion marks 1 liter of milk - 360 billion marks 1 kilo of potatoes - 90 billion marks 1 tram ride - 50 billion marks 1 dollar corresponded to 4.21 trillion marks. World War 2 and the extermination camps The stars on the men at the gallows represent the different prisoners Political prisoners, Jews, Sexually Different and Criminals. Germany developed rocket technology, jet aircraft and many other weapons of war. After the war they were happily taken over by the victors and the engineers also worked for the victorious powers Til in women's clothes RAF Red Army Faction was a terrorist group Bader (a man) and Meinhof (a woman were the masterminds. Kidnapping and killing of politicians and business leaders The fires Book burning in the Third Reich and witch burning in the Middle Ages Both evil factions embrace The little dogs with gas masks Symbolizes German soldiers in the First World War with weapons of gas destruction used by both sides The dogs represent the children of Germania. It is meant to symbolize that Germans follow orders like a good dog. Very drastic but Germans think very much in black and white. either good or evil. Other cultures think more in shades of gray I must have forgotten something or not interpreted it correctly. The song in the credits is Sonne by Rammstein

A lot of their official videos are like movies

Well done U2 😊

Liebe Grüße aus Deutschland (Leipzig) 👍🥰

it is really exhausting to watch your reaction..😮‍💨

the Rammstein video has the same historic hole as the brain of most Germans (who dont notice that): the entire history of the Frankish Empire (the west part became France - which got its name form this Germanic tribe just like Frankfurt, Franken/Bavaria) and later the next big thing, the Holy Roman Empire (till the 14. century called 'Roman Empire' like the classic one and/or 'Christian Empire') is missed ...

Y are the best reaction yter!!!

I love seeing rea. ctions to this Video in Particular, This and ZEIT ( Ofical vidz) Are true masterpieces Have you done any Til Lindemann ( Thats right lead singer For Rammstein... he also has annother side band) .. STEH AUF offical vid is pretty trippy, Allesfresser ( live Moscow is best ver I know of.._ I like Cake too, but.. Covid spreaders... ;) lol So Does your wife have a single Sister? Sorry I'm not from Quebec, so I dont have that Quebec accent... ;) Hows the weather there? It's been cool here, but our summer just started... Take Care Eh!

there's a lot of simbolisim in this video but overall is about Germany through the history and yeah mostly bad things did happen and the lirics talking about of they as Germans are in between to love and hate their own country because their past which is something that not only Germans dealing with many nations around the world had their own dark history as well.

I like your enthusiasm but your level of historical knowledge and or general knowledge is shocking…

You laugh and have no idea... I couldn't find a scene where I could laugh... Subtitles help you not to make an idiot...

Germania always ready giving birth to the dogs of war…..

deutschland hat schon eine krasse Vergangenheit...

the synths in the beginning are probably influenced by "anne clark - our darkness" (the 1984 version).

Hyperinflation like never seen before and since.from 1 Mark (like 1 Dollar)to a trillion in not even a year.I own a post mark, 500 bill.

DÖP DÖP DÖP ::: GERMANY IS NUMBER ONE

The burning of books really happened during the time of Hitler's Germany. Hitler's propaganda destroyed all books written by non-"superior nation" authors, or by authors whose ideas were at odds with fascism. I wrote other thoughts under the video where the analysis of this clip was.

That's who we are.
