- Reaction To Rammstein - Zeit
This is my reaction to Rammstein - Zeit
In this video I react to German rock group Rammstein and their song Zeit. Recently I have reacted to Rammstein - Deutschland and Rammstein - Du Hast (Live in Paris)
Original Video - • Rammstein - Zeit (Offi...
The three figures are the Norns. The Norns are deities in Norse, Germanic mythology who are responsible for shaping human destiny. Their names are Urðr, Verðandi, and Skuld. They stand for "what was", "what is" and "what is to come". They also care for and protect the "world tree" Yggdrasill, which stands at the center of the universe (seen in the video as an kind of "hourglass" or "tree of sand" where the women give birth to the children). Yggdrasill also connects the nine worlds of the Norse, Germanic mythology like Asgard, Vanaheim, Alfheim, Midgard (world of human beings), Jötunheim, Muspelheim, Nidavellir, Niflheim and Helheim.
Chapeau!
Sounds pretty cool actually. All the heims and that stuff. Are there good movies that include this northern mythology?
Danke, das wusste ich auch noch nicht. 🙏
@@walterpost9073maybe the series Ragnarok, but for a good look at the mythology you should look for a documentary. It is a complex religion after all, just as complex as the Greek one.
Norse is currently very present in pop culture. The most known examples are Marvel's Thor and Loki, but also games like God of war.
rodgg731 👍💪❤️ Super cool erklärt.
You're one of the "reacters" I like most. I love your calm energy and have to see everything you release. I know, cheesy, but take it.
You are absolutely right on this though. And I think all viewers, especially the Germans, watching his channel appreciate the way he does his videos. Appreciative of what he says, comments on his thoughts about it and elaborates why or how he interprets what he sees. No matter if we are watching memes or a music video, the style is consistent and very interesting to watch - which is also reflected in the channel growth. Good to see it is steadily going :) love ❤
He is a reactor who reacts. I know a lot of channels where "reactors" show me a video without any reaction.
Not cheesy at all. He is very good. Intelligent guy
To me *Who is Mert* is one of the best YT-channels I'm following!
That’s also my kind of feedback
The most underrated scene in this movie is the harvest scenery, I think. Pretty sure someone stated that already somewhere, I just don‘t have the ZEIT to read them all… ;)
The harvest scene is cramped in between the wild crescendo and the heartbreaking death of Olivers daughter, the moment, when everybody is oberwhelmed by this „flip“ of the timeline. It‘s just the reverse order when the child dies earlier than the parent does and it is the most devastating thing imaginable if you have to bury your own child. That‘s when everyone cracks and shed some tears. (Maybe there‘s even a pun intended? You know, the bass player won‘t get a girl, right?).
We are released into the harvest scene right after the wild, struggling crescendo, the music stops, the late summer scenery is warm and peaceful, Tills voice gets soft and calm. A scenery of timeless(!) beauty (zeitlose Schönheit). This is exactly the way like mankind did bring in the harvest for ages, for its entire settled history. And yet they are using the scythe, the tool of the grim reaper (in german: „Sensenmann“, literally „scythe man“).
And I guess it is again on purpose, that the visuals remind you of the amish people, whose way of life seems to be a „time capsule“, because they refuse to „go with time“. And they do have some german ancestry, don‘t they?
I‘m sure someone else pointed this out way better than I did, I apologize for iterations (and bad english). But these details don‘t get clear on first vision. You can‘t just do a „first reaction“ to a masterpiece of this dimension and realise every detail in it. I watched it several dozen times and still discover new gems. To be honest, some would have never come to my mind without these comment sections.
But for sure, you are the one reactor who has the most insight and understanding compared to others, who doesn‘t get anything and instead making all kinds of odd faces. I like your work, because you put some effort and dedication in it. It‘s outstanding. Thanks a lot.
Best answer so far! 👍
Also to be mentioned that the sentence "Augenblick verweile doch"/"Moment just stay" is a reference to one of the most famous German books, Goethes "Faust".
Faust made a deal with the devil to live forever, until he is going to say "Augenblick verweile doch, Du bist so schön"/"Moment just stay, you are so beautiful". If he says this, the devil is free to take his soul/life. Again perfectly matching the "death scene".
9:30 - "i don't want this to end" isn't it beautiful how the music perfectly captures this feeling? make you literally feel what the lyrics are about.
I recommend the video for “Angst”. The message of the song and video is more relevant today than ever and musically very good.
Or Zick Zack. They have massively improved lately and both the songs and videos gain even more depth.
@@alis49281 They have 'improved'? So they were inferior before?
@@duncanmccann2715 I think the use of CGI gives them more freedom in their videos and they do a lot with detailed costumes. Something you would rarely see in mere music videos two decades ago.
The director is Robert Gwisdek, an actor, rapper and poet. His parents are well-known actors in germany. Unfortunately his father had died two years before "Zeit". Robert is a friend of the keyboardist known as Flake and so he got his first job as an director. His second work is "Angst" by Rammstein. It's political and hits the zeitgeist (pun intended), so I highly recommend it for your channel.
Zeit is one of Rammsteins best videos.
You should look "Adieu" this is like a movie!
But also "Angst" (Scare) has a big message in the video.
"Augenblick, verweihle doch, ich bin noch nicht bereit" (Moment, just stay, I'm not ready yet) is a play with words with a quote from Goethe's Faust "Werd ich zum Augenblicke sagen: Verweile doch! du bist so schön!" (When I say to the Moment flying; 'Linger a while -- thou art so fair!')
I loved Faust in school. I loved this line in the harvest scene. It hits hard.
Listening to Rammstein for like 20 years. But *this song* is my absolut favorite.
It is truly admirable the way you react to the music, the lyrics and try to understand, which you often do. The lyrics are what attracts me most to Rammstein. The band's and the lead singer Till Lindemann's picking on a particular theme and putting it into words is extraordinary. The deeper meaning of it will remain hidden unless one listens carefully and repeatedly. Rammstein is one of the greatest bands of our time.
No CGI was used for the video. Their ultimate masterpiece ❤️🔥
I lost loved ones to old age and/or COVID just before discovering this video. It hit me like a freight train. Yes, time won't stop, the fishermen will drown, the soldiers will die, we won't go back to our mother's womb, and the farmer's daughter will die way before her time.
Time being represented as an actual sandclock is a great metaphor. I cannot watch this video without shedding a tear, but it also drives me to make my dreams come true and live my life at the fullest, for I don't know how much Time I have left.
The three beings looking like the angel of death are the 3 Norns (norse mythology) or the 3 Parques (greek/roman mythology. These goddesses constantly weave the fabric of Time. Sometimes they cut a thread and one human being dies, but at the same time another is being born.
What a beautiful Comment!
@@spischang Thanks, you're very kind!
The reason i subscribed to your channel is because you are smart enough,not just when it comes to Rammstein,but in general.It's rare these days to be honest.Always original with proper smart opinions,great sense of humor and honest feelings.Keep it up mate,your channel has a bright future if you continue like this.Greetings from Westerwald,Germany.
Thank you so much for your great descriptions. As a member of your blind and visually impaired audience, i cannot thank you enough for your amazing narrations. At last i, too, can enjoy such videos. Keep up the vivid narration! Love your channel!
Wow, great reaction. One of the best(with english subtiltes), i see.Thank you. Greetings from nothern Germany .🤘😊
I would suggest Angst, Sonne, and both versions of Mein Herz brennt.
Piano version of Mein Herz Brennt master piece
@@daphneschuring5810 yes!!
Angst! Definitely "Angst"!! In fact, every single song or video - love this band!!!
"This"
🤔 seems that we have a new Rammstein Fan😉
thx for your react. In Germany, we like you. 🙂 Rammstein songs are all very art and so good...
Great reaction, thank You!
Gänsehaut pur 🎉
Last breath in the end. One more masterpiece from Rammstein. This last album is a real treasure. Thanks for a great reaction. Seems that the video hit you the same like it did to me.
Till is a poet, his voice, plus the music and the video, I'm moved every time. Rammstein is ART❤
also he is an abuser... drugging girls and f*cks them against their will
@@lazyButAliveDies ist eine absichlich bewusste falsche Behauptung und stellt eine Straftat da. Nach öffentlicher Bekanntmachung ist ein Ermittlungsverfahren wegen mangelnder Anhaltspunkte eingestellte worden!
@@lazyButAliveThis is a deliberately false statement and constitutes a criminal offence. After a public announcement, an investigation was closed due to a lack of evidence!
Another great reaction! I'm glad I recommended Rammstein to you, even if I'll never know if it was mine that made you watch the first video. As you are hooked now, I'm excited to see which one you'll react to next. No need to recommend one, they are all good.
One of the best songs of Rammstein. If you want to listen to one of their best recent songs, listen to “Angst”. It’s a song about racism and the culture that reproduces it.
"Who comes up with that?" The great Robert Gwisdek. Mostly famous for his singer career and his masterpiece until now
"I didn't want this to end" sounds like they managed to make you feel exactly what they were saying in the video. That's impressive.
Beautiful reaction ❤
please react to "mein herz brennt", piano version. Great song and great performance by Till
the scene where the band members are in that hail of sands might represent the way they deal with time. Till (singer) tries to fight it, Oliver (bassist) accepts it in a stoich way since he is a very quiet and introverted character, Christop (drummer) plays with it, Christian (keyboarder) tries to control it, Richard (guitarist) tries to stop it
Die haben viele tolle Songs mit tiefgründigen Inhalten.
best music video ever ! there's nothing like that...!
this song is just pure!!!!!!
for me, nothing never ever hits me hader and touched me on a calmed down level, at the same time.....
and your reaction to this pure song is fantastic. well done, really well done.
My favorite band, my favorite reactor - yes! This journey is going to be great, please go on with Rammstein reactions.
by the way, the last sound in this clip for me it stands as the last breath.
I have one ticket left over for their 2024 tour in germany including hotel room in Gelsenkirchen, let me know if you want it ;)
Great reaction. Looking forward to your next Rammstein or Till experience.
I've seen a lot of reactions to the song, but yours is by far the best, please keep it up
I think the song that got me the most emotional as I were younger was "ohne dich" very recommendable_
Great comment. I lkie this a lot. Best Rammstein video ever!
One of the most amazing reaction you've ever done on this channel. Check out more clips of Rammstein: ANGST + SONNE + OHNE DICH + MEIN HERZ BRENNT + AUSLÄNDER + MEIN HERZ BRENNT (Piano Version) + ICH WILL + ROSENROT
Yes first the official Video of "Mein Herz brennt", and after this to get this phenomenal cripy feeling PIANO VERSION of Mein Herz brennt... Go go go... you will completely be done!
Yes they are amazing ❤
Great reaction, and I hope you'll react to "Angst" someday soon, it's got such an important meaning and is so well done. I'm sure you'll enjoy it, both musically and visually, as well as interpretation-wise. :)
"Adieu" from last album is an even better video. Looks like a movie :D
I'm here for your Rammstein journey my friend.
It's gonna be one hell of a ride.
Next up should be Adieu, but....seriously.... pick ANY song. They NEVER disappoint.
You're one of the few who has noticed the gasp at the end. Appreciate your videos.
I recommend Rammstein - mein herz brennt piano cover
it's a hourglass at the end, when you turn it upside down, you have the same.
the endless cycle.
About the breath at the end: I read somewhere it really was a sound sample of the first breath of a baby. Not sure if it‘s true. But it certainly would bring the story or meaning full circle.
Hey Mert, following for a while now, and must say: great reaction videos, you REALLY dive into things - cool, new sub here! I would suggest "Angst" as the next one - unbelievable, let me tell you.
Happy new year, hope you're well - greetings from Germany! 🤘
Till Lindeman is the greatest living poet Germany have these days. He just spit out his poems with musical background. That artificials are not the death they are 'NORNS' from a nordic Mythology also known as keepers of time. Please keep on your Rammstein reactions. I willl enjoy every minute of it.
Your reactions are always great to watch. Yes, this one is Art, for sure. Now, watch Rammstein's "Dicke Titten" Video - a different Side of them yet again, and that one is Art of a different kind, and surely enjoyable! 😅
This is what i absolutly love about Rammstein: their musicvideos.
They are creative, unique sometimes weird.
I will recomend you the Video of "ohne dich"
Next Adieu? Glad you started to go through the rabbit hole of Rammstein. Keep it up and never forget to watch the video incl. outro. You will find at least three layers of interpretations/meaning in every video. So take your time, read the lyrics (translated if you need of course), watch the video, rethink .. and so on.
The Live Concerts are Opera in a way, totally planned and timed to a second. Everything means something, even which song is song when.
Here is a hint for the video “Zeit”:
Three black figures of fate are named: They are called Urd (fate), Verdandi (that which is becoming) and Skuld (guilt; that which should be). Their names are considered Nordic equivalents of common medieval conceptual concepts of time in the form of personifications of the past (Urd), present (Verdandi) and future (Skuld). Although these three names are young, they seem to go back to an ancient Germanic idea of a nameless trinity of women of fate.
Furthermore remember how the band members reacted while the sand (river of time) did hit them. Everybody reacted differently, sometimes to fight against time, sometimes no reaction at all. Though time always wins.
Cheers, Pepe
Great reaction. You was watching the Video to their newest Album. The name of this Album is Zeit too. There are a few interessing Videos from this Album. Look for "Zick Zack" or "Dicke Titten" when you want to see the funny side of Rammstein. But please with english subtitles so you can understand the songs. Great visual work and deeper meaning are the Videos to "Angst" and "Adieu". Please with english subs too. One thing to the song Angst. Some subtitles translate the part "Alle haben Angst vorm schwarzen Mann" word by word into "Everybody is afraid for the black man". But this is too easy translated. The meaning of schwarzen Mann is not the Black man with dark skin, in Germany they mean something like the Boogeyman as a warning for little children. So go on reacting to Rammstein, I just waiting with joy for your next Reaction. Many greatings from Duisburg in Germany!
I love your Videos, your reacts! 🤩Big hugs from Germany to Scotland!
Best wishes from germany ❤
Hey Mert! Its not only the music that is heavy when we are talking about Rammstein! Check out Rammsteins music video "Spring" with the German lyrics turned in to in English, it is jaw dropping ! !
I am with you man - masterpiece! 😍
Germany simply rocks in everything ❤❤❤
Again real Art ❤❤
My mother introduced me to Rammstein when I was 12. I still love them.
Sonne. Snow White like you’ve never seen her before.
I watched so much of your content already, so I finally subbed! Deep, very deep song… this band can still surprise after more than 30 years! 👍🤘
I often follow up Zeit with "Euch zum Geleit" from Schandmaul - another german band.
These two songs have a nice syngery from my point of view.
I love this song, its lyrics and its meaning so much that I actually got a tatto dedicated to it last year. This song is such a masterpiece, I cried the first time I experienced it live.
Hey ma friend, I really love your emotional sencitivness and inteligence, great, that you like this Masterpeace, this peace of art hits me evertime I watch it, all the best!
fun fact: today, just like most days, I listened to Zeit after getting up. I have a selection of songs for my morning routine :D Zeit is one of those songs we call "pieces of art" instead of pieces of music in my friend group. Its similar to the song "ohne dich" in that sense.
"I didn't want this to end" is a funny quote after this song
Watch "Radio" by Rammstein !
Till the singer who is also the lyricist has had several books of poetry published.
Er sagte mal im Gespräch mit einem schwedischen Journalisten, «Ich bin in der Gruppe für das Wort verantwortlich.» Und dieser Verantwortung wird er mehr als gerecht, würde ich behaupten.
Those 3 Norns are nothing like a reaper. They never go and take someone's life. In all cases it's the people who approach, like the fishermen row towards them in their boat, the farmer's daughter walks to them while they are standing still... They are neither evil nor good, they are just there, always waiting for you to fulfill your faith. They are the time.
Best RAMMSTEIN Track Ever!🖤💔💚
Nice Video!! Next Time do „Ausländer“ from Rammstein
Adieu is another great song and video
Try also "Mein Herz Brennt" both the normal and the Piano version... Totally different but both Rammstein! The Sven Hellbig piano version is sooo good with only Till singing. ❤
So, your reaction to this song and video was quite like mine. I had goosebumps allover when I first heard/saw it. I can't count anymore how often I've been watching it since then. I just love that masterpiece.
I LOVE the Scottish - nice you like "us" too - hugz and kisses from Germany. *muah* ♥
Till Lindemann can be a great poet.
A Masterpiece. LG

Rammstein is EPIC!
Great to see another Ramm reaction from you mate! Yet another reactor who's journey with the boys' magic has just begun but they know they're in for the zeit of their life (see what I did there? 😉) They're considered as industrial metal but I just say metal. Clearly more heavy than rock. The boys are art. Perfect art. No one is on their level. That's how good they are. No expense is spared to get their message across. No half arsed efforts. Keep them coming my friend You've earnt yourself another sub!
Nice Reaction. I have some recommendations for you for other german music to react to. A lot of it is really underestimated and is possible new to a lot of your viewers:
>> Null Positiv - Kollaps (Official Video)
>> FEUERSCHWANZ - Das Elfte Gebot (Official Video)
>> SUBWAY TO SALLY - Ihr Kriegt Uns Nie (Official Video)
>> Saltatio Mortis - Pray To The Hunter feat. „The Elder Scrolls Online“ (Official Video)
>> HÄMATOM - Dagegen (Official Video)
>> Samurai Pizza Cats - PIZZA HOMICIDE (feat. Nico Sallach of Electric Callboy) OFFICIAL VIDEO
>> Eisbrecher - Zwischen uns (official video)
>> Rammstein - Adieu (Official Video)
>> NACHTBLUT - Lied Für die Götter (Official Video)
A small selection, there are plenty more you can choose from.
Keep up the good work!
It's not just their music or the videos. They're great actors as well. Shown in all their videos (and live-performances).
You're the first reactor to comment on the breath at the end. To me it's a final breath in reverse.
u understand this song and video. perfect reaction from a english speak guy. ty verry good job.
My three favorite songs, which you might enjoy are "Engel", "Sonne" and "Amerika". These are older songs from Rammstein.
Thanks for the great reaction! (once again)
You'll probably like those:
- Engel (live from Madison Square Garden, subtitles)
- Mein Teil (live 2013, needs to read the background story beforehand)
Rammstein is my all favorite band. Here are some recommendations: Rammstein - Du Riechst so gut - [live aus berlin], Rammstein - Ich Will (Hurricane Festival 2016) and Rammstein - Tier (Live Aus Berlin) [CC]. And all of those are by the channel Bucksttabu, all of his videos have subtitles. :)
Ein wunderschönes Lied, welches fantastisch umschrieben und umgesetzt. ❤ ich liebe Rammstein!
i just repost my comment from your other rammstein reaction:
the list of recommendations for rammstein songs is easy: all of them. because every single song usually comes with a meaning (sometimes double meanings) and they are deeper than what people might hear on the surface.
i'd highly recommend to watch the videos with english subtitles tho and there are 2 channels on youtube(no promotional benefits here) who did a great work over the years und subbed almost all rammstein songs (and often live performances). the first channel is "educatedmarine" and the other is "bucksttabu"
of course you could pick videos from all over youtube (even the official rammstein channel) but then you'd have to do the translation of the lyrics on your own.
I believe the last sound heard in the video, is the first breath taken by a newborn baby ...
Thanks for your reaction. It was again very interesting, that you enjoyed the video as I did. There are more Rammstein videos I enjoy again and again.
If you like to watch more, I can also recommend the following videos:
1. Zick Zack (represents the sound of scissors): a serious topic but a very funny interpretation, completely different from the song Zeit
2. Ich tue Dir weh (English: I hurt you): a classical Rammstein song, live at Madison Square Garden in New York, very insense music and stunning show
3. Radio (English: radio): the radio was in the early years of the communist part of Germany (GDR) the only means for people to escape mentally into the Western World. Rammstein know what they are singing about because they grew up in Eastern Germany. A very special interpretation of the desire to escape the grey world of communism.
Greeting from Munich, Jens
you should check out Rammstein - Angst and their music video, its another banger
Hey, try "Ich Will" from Rammstein. Sooooo good❤
Love it! Please coside to react to "Seemann" by Rammstein, as well.
Im glad youre giving Rammstein a fair chance because many arent.
Theres a song with a similar vibe to this one called "Ohne Dich". Also has a music video but its much older, it was shot in 2004. This one is a very recent song/music video released just last year.
Vor einem Jahr veröffentlicht und fast 50 Mill. Aufrufe. Das ist sehr viel dafür, dass es kein Fußballvideo ist. Und da die Klicks in den letzten Monaten nicht mehr so richtig steigen wollen, würde mich eine Manipulation nicht überraschen.
Everything about this is amazing ❤🔥
The Breath, you are one of the very few Reactors who noticed it Well Done, paying proper attention.
Now the question is, Is It The First or Last Gasped Breath ?
I think its for us to decide.
The 3 hooded figures are not Death or The Grim Reaper but are the Norns of ancient northern European beliefs.
They are 3 sisters, very basically they represent Past, Present and Future.
Very similar to the Greek/Roman Fates.
Nice... Agree 100% Their music is beyond masterpiece.... Would love to see/hear your views on their videos titled, RADIO, and ZICK ZACK... there are a few others... pretty much any offical music vid from their last 3 released albums...
Stay safe... eh
maybe the rammstein community is sick of it, but the most icony song of ramstein for me is stilll "Sonne" and the clip is also, as always, very remarkble. at least i wanna say; really enjoying your work (i like your sympathiy and expressions very much). ramstein is controversial by some groups, but the musical creations are very good, equal as you see it. keep on boy, yo doing great, greets from switzerland👍❤
👍❤ a masterpiece
It seems Rammstein has gained a new fan. :D
