Just wanted to let you know, I've had mono for the last week so, **** has sucked. But as soon as I heard the song I LOLed as hard as I could. Thank you.
Why is this everyone's favorite? Yeah, the dancing puppet is cute, but why would someone be thinking about it? Even if they were, what's so funny about them thinking about it?
I really want to know just how awkward the set up was for the video. "Okay ripped dudes, we are going to grease you up, get in a big dog pile and like, grab each other and stuff. Yes, its supposed to be a little gay Jimmy there are homoerotic undertones. No Frank don't actually do orgy stuff, pretend you are like wrestling seriously or something. Okay, perfect mix of gay stuff and manly stuff, action!" I enjoy Rammstein
I mean technically it's not just undertones
I mean at one point the lyrics are "gay man" (bad translation i know but you can't properly translate songs)
the song is about being gay, using many double entendres like "the lust pulls from behind." It's also about being isolated and condemned by those around you ie "my sex (other men) call me a traitor" or "I am the nightmare of all fathers"
Well I know Rammstein has a love of making videos that visualize our animalistic nature and instincts, bypassing what is socially acceptable and focusing on basic pleasures and drive of sex, food, violence etc. I've heard several interpretations of this particular video "Man versus Man". I feel like Rammstein released a better explaination for it somewhere. I still like to imagine my dialogue during preperation
Rammstein really is awesome in that aspect
They even have their own version of the Earlking and the "Heidenrose" by Goethe Dalai Lama and "Rosenrot" so thats that too
If you'd translate the song to English, the song is totally about Till Lindemann and crew talking about the cultural significance of Turkish Oil Wrestling.
I though it was about that time Till lost a bat with his 2 gay friends and had to go to a gaybar with them.
then Till found out gay people where very lucky beucase they had no problem picking up someone to get laid with, "They just went in the bar, looked at eachother and thats alll they needed, no pickup lines etc"
I might be wrong tho, but i googled the lyrics some time ago beucase i was curius on the lyrics and story behind the song.
