Rammstein - Amerika

The New Rammstein song and video has hit the net.

Heres the video.


WMP Dial Up

WMP Broadband


Real Dial Up

Real Broadband



Here's the translated lyrics (German to English)

America
We're all living in America
America is wonderful
we're all living in America
America
America

We're all living in America
America is wonderful
we're all living in America
America
America

When we dance I want to lead
when you turn yourself around alone
let us control you a bit
I'll show you how to walk right

We create a lovely round dance
the freedom plays from all violins
music comes from the White House
and in front of Paris stands Mickey Mouse

We're all living in America
America is wonderful
we're all living in America
America
America

I know the very useful steps
and I will protect you from missteps
and who does not want to dance at the end
does not know that he must dance

We create a lovely round dance
I will show you the direction
to Africa comes Santa Claus
and in front of Paris stands Mickey Mouse

We're all living in America
America is wonderful
we're all living in America
America
America

We're all living in America
Coca Cola, Wonderbra
we're all living in America
America
America

This is not a love song
this is not a love song
I don't sing my mother tongue
no, this is not a love song

We're all living in America
America is wonderful
we're all living in America
America
America

We're all living in America
Coca Cola, sometimes war
we're all living in America
America
America

that part is wrong
"lasst euch ein wenig kontrollieren" can't be translated right
but "ich zeige euch wie's richtig geht" is not "I'll show you how to walk right"
it's "I'll show you how it's done right"

I like that song.
Im assuming its going along with all the anti-american fealings lately...
"This is not a love song
this is not a love song
I don't sing my mother tongue
no, this is not a love song
"

I got kind of a chuckle during the scene when they cant put the flag together and have to look at the intructions. hehehe

Actually, in an interview they stated that it wasn't anti-american... it was kind of just talking about how much American culture and influence has globally spread (both the good parts and the bad parts).

In the same interview, another interesting thing was pointed out. Listen to this sound clip and I'll let you figure out what it was: http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/cl...362265-8265602

Yeah, I know, it's just one part and they are still different, but it is just kinda humorous that they are pretty close

They're German. They sing in German.

That was a translation.

Rammstein is not about the lyrics, it's about the pyrotechnics...

Rammstein aren't exactly famous for their lyrics, you know. Although I do like the words to a few songs [namely 'Seemann' and 'Klavier'] quite a bit and think that they often get bashed for them because it's an established standard that they aren't all highbrow. That said, the new song is boring, uninspired. The chorus is catchy but that's about the only thing I like about it. The video is rather dull, too.

imo their lyrics are good,but they're mostly about sex
I agree with the rest of your post(mein teil wasn't great too...I hope their new album woun't be like those 2 songs)

I love Rammstein! Sehnsucht was best album. And also that song "1 2 3 4" I think the title that has ants marching to kill a beetle (and in the end, the camera shows that their last victim before that was a human)

I saw this on tv the other day and thought it was an absolutely terrible song, and the video sucked too. I'm fond of their other stuff but if the new album's gonna be like this it'll suck.

After hearing the two singles I don't think the next album will be as good as Mutter, but I'll still definitely get it. After all, so far none of the singles, with the possible exception of Links 2 3 4, have been the outstanding tracks on their respective albums.
