- The original video: • Rammstein - Links 2 3 ...
This song was written in response to the many claims that Rammstein are Nazis that badly influenced various school shootings. The song’s chorus shows that the band’s political views are on the left (2 3 4). The song also has a double meaning. The line “Links 2 3 4″³ also means that their hearts beat on the left.
Links zwo, drei, vier (Left 2 (both zwo and zwei mean 2 in German but due to their similar sounds zwo is used here) 3 4)is also a German army chant.

🎼LYRICS🎼
Left 234
CAN HEARTS BE BROKEN?
CAN HEARTS TALK?
cAN HEARTS BE TORTURED?
CAN HEARTS BE STOLEN?
THEY WANT MY HEART TO BE IN THE RIGHT PLACE,
BUT WHEN I LOOK DOWN-IT'S BEATING TO THE LEFT!
CAN HEARTS SING?
CAN HEARTS BREAK?
cAN HEARTS BE PURE?
CAN A HEART BE MADE OF STONE?
THEY WANT MY HEART TO BE IN THE RIGHT PLACE,
BUT WHEN I LOOK DOWN, IT'S BEATING TO THE LEFT 234!
CAN YOU QUESTION HEARTS?
CAN YOU CARRY A CHILD UNDER IT?
CAN YOU GIVE YOUR HEART?
CAN YOU THINK WITH YOUR HEART?
THEY WANT MY HEART IN THE RIGHT PLACE;
BUT WHEN I LOOK DOWN,
IT'S BEATING IN MY LEFT BREAST.
THE JEALOUS WERE WRONG-
LEFT 234!
Thank you! ♥
Victoria Aydin 😘
Thank you man !! so much
I don't think you understand the point of the video
I appreciate the extra commentary on the song's purpose other than its literal translation you added in the description.
One of the greatest bands ever.
yah, i have seen them live and i’m only 13 :)
maybe a bit young but cool
Magnus Bundgaard never too young for rammstein lol
Yes
@@Slohth CV en tu
My entire childhood, my parents tried to raise me right. Now as a man, my heart beats left
Till Lindermann said in an interview if you’re wondering which way they lean politically, listen to “Links 234” “LEFT”
It's hilarious how a bunch of neo-nazis genuinely believe Rammstein is on their side purely because they're ignorant and can't speak a lick of German.
Rammstein is essentially apolitical sometimes on the left other times on the right. The lyrics list many ways in which the human hear is described including that your heart, "should be in the right place." Humorous since the heart is actually physically beneath the left breast. Sometimes a lyric is just a lyric. That's the case with all of Rammstein's apolitical lyrics.
Doesn't take away from them being a great rock band
@@fieldy409 its usually is how those guys thinks. They believe in some things out off ignorance.💕💕💕💕
not sure if anyone gives a shit but if you are stoned like me during the covid times then you can watch all the latest series on InstaFlixxer. Have been binge watching with my brother lately :)
And then there where some who thought that Rammstein where right winged... 😅
"Rammstein" have no one political view, some of the members have hinted towards their leanings and between them there are some "left" and some "right" and growing up in East Germany seems to have left some marks on some of them.
@SlickWil True, afaik some of the members grew up there and some "liked" it while others didn't, without going into the every day life in East Germany I hope it's the rose tinted glasses/their schooling talking and not the acceptance of disappearing those that speak ill of the state, one can like an idea but not its execution.
@SlickWil
Hmm, might be me being favourable towards people who play down the crimes commited in these countries as they weren't victims of it, due being too young, party privileges or just believing the propaganda.
There's a reason people fled to the west, so while accepting people that enjoyed their time living in such a society I don't understand people now when we have the facts endorse the spread of such ideologies.
And on the subject of shitty electricity & water/sewage mains, I live in small town in sweden and our are just as old and bad, its imo the government spending on the flashy virtuesignalling stuff and not what the base requirements for daily life.
@@ShermanistDruid Whilst you are correct in many cases, the DDR were horrendous. But many people actually enjoyed socialism. They felt it brought people together. People were more cooperative with one another, they hated how authoritarian the DDR were. Its the same under the USSR. Russian people are still in love with the idea of socialism/communism. Especially with how capitalism has affected the people of Russia. When it comes down to the Eastern countries that fell under the Iron curtain. It wasn't left wing economics that oppressed them. It was more the fact the totalitarian and authoritarian practices these governments had. And how they really didn't practice what they preached when it came to luxury goods.
They've said numerous times in interviews, especially the lead singer, that they lean left but are not political.
you should take some more clear font
Its rammstein font
The font is perfecr
Me too~ Can't read & understand the Lyrics... T.T
They put on one hell of a show their concerts are worth it
The song is also a political statement to those people (especially to some german medias) who say Rammstein is a Nazi-Band. (They want my heart on the right place, but when i look down then it's beating left)
The translation is very good but sometimes words are left which changes the context radically. Thank you very much for making this video. Kudo's
Thats whay its left 2 3 4
The Kings of metal!
Love rammstein makes me want to learn german
I'm taking German right now and Rammstein helps
This is a regional German. This is the very dramatic version of the language and depending on which side of Germany you live on there might be another country that also affects your tone/pronunciation.
man does this font dont read out good
Please structure word better :y
yourallygod Speak for yourself, buddy. Lol
@@antguy-superheroextraordin7835 I know that was on purpose :T
yourallygod I was talking to that BallisticKracken guy.lol
@@antguy-superheroextraordin7835 but then why'd ya reply to me :p
How the theme of the original music video plot got born:
Rammstein: Hmm, what should be my metal music video should be about?
Worker: A fire ant army attacking a giant rhino beetle
Rammstein: Excellent!
The ant man story we needed
Ants are known to be following orders without the ability to think for themself, are militaristic, constant caring about growing their territory and extreamly aggressiv. A realy great and subtile reference to Nazi-Germany.
@@01r1sh I disagree
@@NotUnymous dude the entire meaning of the song is Rammstein making really clear they aren't Nazis.
@@luisvila918 Yes, you misunderstood. they aren't like Ants...
dude! Thanks for doing this! can we get "Reise Reise" That would be awesome.
Would have been mint if I could read the font !
ran across this video while searching around for songs I listened to while on various deployments...in regards to rammstein accusations of being nazi--based on german law--wouldn't they have been shut down hard for anything pro-nazi with a quickness? As I understand it--there are several antinazi laws with severe/harsh penalties
these laws ware less "ooh censorship" and more "Don't say Voldemort, tyranny is horrible and people are still traumatized"
Art & educational purposes are explicitly excempt, the problem is that some years ago a lot of crusty old people classified videogames as "toys" rather than "art", so they got effectively censored.
Oh you dont even wanna know how deep german institutions are still in the nazi-swamp. Just google about the NSU (national-socialist underground)
Nah, you cant show the Nazi flag If its not in art (Games are also considered Art) or history, you are not allowed to make the "Hitler great" and neither to sing the third verse of the anthem.
Beside those three, you are free to do as you please.
For some reason non german Nazis who can't speak the language are convinced that Rammstein are like them and they comment all this stuff when it couldn't be further from the truth. I think that people read the nazis comments instead of going off what Rammstein actually say.
I love Rammstein!
The writers meaning is being lost in translation I believe but that will never be known because the artist offers no explanation and I do not blame him. Thats the beauty of art. Artists were also victims of the Nazis. FYI
The antman story we needed
people dont realize how similar german is to english, if you take a second you can have a pretty good idea what is being said
Brian Gervais thats so inaccurate
not so much
That's what I thought, then I looked at lyrics. I was fuckin WRONG.
english and german are both from the same language family so yeah there are a lot of similarities.
I would have *never* guessed what 'tvo' in 'Links 2 3 4' meant (kappa)
Left left left left left.... left let's all sing together comrades..left ❤
I frickin love this group
JA!!!!! RAMMSTEIN!!
The meaning of the song would seem very confusing if you didn't know it had to do with their political stance
That's because it has nothing to do with politics.
@@jereuter01 Yes it does, it's literally about what political side they are on. Which they are on the left.
@@gameslayer404 Nope, song if I recall correctly was a response that they were "far-right", same thing when they made america after being too capitalists, Rammstein have no one political view, the few members that have proclaimed their own views are both to the right & left of center so if anything Rammstein is centrists...
@@ShermanistDruid Always fun to watch right-wingers twist themselves into pretzels over continuing to like Rammstein while pretending to not understand anything about their politics.
*pats @@BigMikeMcBastard on head*
Whatever gets you through the night...
They want my heart in the right place, look down it beats in the left
Got my tickets for September 16 in America. I’m down. Love this band. Rammstein.
One of the best ever bands I havevseen twice and next month all being well
I was left before I learned what left meant.I fuckin love this song
2022…just seen them f*****g awesome band
Another concert I'd love to go to
wow_super cool
Engel
Rammstein are metal Gods
This was the show in Vegas right?! If so, amazing show, I was there!
wow I envy you !
Nop this was in Wacken show in their homeland
Can anyone please tell me what word fans sing after the word Links? Thanks in advance
Zwo Drei Vier = the military version of counting up as Zwei and Drei have a chance to be misunderstood in the static of radio transmissions. So Zwo was used to differentiate it phonetically from the Drei. Zwei/Zwo = two, Drei = three, Vier = four.
The chant "Links Zwo Drei Vier" is derived from a marching song of the German/Prussian armies. Indicating with which foot the column of marching soldiers should begin marching, followed by the beat of the steps. Giving the number of steps in time to the beat.
Increasing the speed of thebeat was what gave rise to the term "double time" in English phraseology of army jargon.
"Double time" meant that the number of steps in a marching song was increased to double the number, in essence meaning almost a run or at least a jog.
Over time this original meaning was lost. What remained was that the soldiers were ordered to run for their lives, or the seargent would have their hides at the end of a run.
Zwo is very similar to the English "Two". It's pronounced "ts-v-oh".
Drei is pronounced very similar to the English "Dry" but with a sharper R. Either clicked and trilled against the front teeth, as done here by Till Lindemann the singer. Or rolled strongly in the back of the throat instead of at the back of the palate.
Vier is pronounced almost exactly like "fear" in English.
There you go, have fun chanting it on your next Rammstein concert... 🤘🤘
The wrist watch... Germany.. something always to be grateful for
Could you do Ohne Dich please
Needs to be on a game

It sounds similar to ministry pretty fucking cool .

Aww

*man I love accept*
F**k! You just don't know how it is hard to read that font when you are not a native English speaker! More than that, some chars simirar to cyrilics. And thanks for no have a constant place for the translation with big black borders around the video. Well done, Poseidon Central, well done...
Love the opening footage
The font can't even be read.
Best anti-nazi song, ever Rammstein is Germany's best live bands, ever..
DANKE DIR AUCH
RAMMSTEIN
You people are so ignorant it is sad
They had to be big in the States til they where successful here in germany .
Jesus fuck I just wanted to tell Rammstein I had first heard this song when I was in 4th grade, and EVERY VIDEO on the official Rammstein channel has comments turned off!!!
We were kingdoms had the best of each other
Please Germany I need you. Get me out Australia to Berlin.. failing that send a medical team here
Take me with you
It is the goal of any artist to get a reaction from their work. Rammstein is very successful at doing this well with their words and images. I think that they would be delighted to know that we are debating this piece. It is great!!!
Oh yeah, no one is smart enough to figure out what you are implying here. #SoSubtle
the font is bad
Funny watching people rock out to this 😂
I'm just that country's mananimal
What i wouldn't give for Germany to agree. . I'm shipped to you quarantine.. Maybe I can some how winter wonderland
More important.. how do we make the isles Europe for ever. And When we do. We return it to home
Needs must when the devil drives.
Best video hands down. Love the Wermacht marching
II also thought that they wher extremely right wing, for some reason, before i heard this song. Mein Herz schlägt auch in der linken Brust.
Germany the home of the wire. It was cool when they had lighting inside ship train and well.. The battery the wireless radio . Such a clever people . Smart guys . How did hitlers voice reach all those people... Such a shame to lose them all. The machine.. it's such a being .
The left 234 is the german march routine by the wehrmacht
No, it's actually a standard march routine of nearly every german-speaking army. It hasn't a direct nazi-connotation.
@@gabe6550 yes i know, but this video is regarding the wehrmach marching. Which was the first orchestrated military march compared to other armies who didnt put as much emphasis into marching at the time. Now copied throughout the world.
@@brianconnor1810 BS. The Prussian army was into synchronous marching from the very outset.
Can’t read ahit
It's called trust and to them something from the beginning of my life to betrayed. Don't worry everyone I still have my vestiges . A joke for Germany.. Men of iron have rust in the under pants ... hahaha it's most of what my blood is.. rust . After I'm cut it rusts quick. I'm worried a serious wound and it's sepsis . I've had enough of sepsis
Try learning their language and then you may understand.
People use them to learn German lol
I'm currently learning the language. Listening to them has helped me. They are a reason I wanted to learn in the first place.
LINKS😂
little ant Hitler led those brave ants to win a victory against those blood sucking bugs.
ужасные шрифты! просто невозможно читать
The entire song is a statement against the political right-wings.
Way funnier if you sing it to your cat in German
For a very long time England's greatest ally was. The German kingdoms. Such a sharing of people. Shame how it all ended ..
Huh, when?
I never heard of it.
Well, it never ends. Brexit may be a huge step backwards but I'm pretty sure its just an episode needed to relearn...
@@NotUnymous The English royal family are Germans. The house of Windsor is a German family. I dunno how that happened I guess they got conquered but I don't know of a war like that.
@@fieldy409 Prince Albert was born in the German duchy of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha, a German duchy. So he was Albert of the House of Saxe-Coburg-Gotha. He married Queen Victoria, who herself was of House of Hanover (also a German house incidentally). When Queen Victoria died, Albert's son with her, Edward VII, assumed power. So the ruling house changed from Hanover to Saxe-Coburg-Gotha because that was the father's house. But during WW1 the Germans dropped a few bombs on London and so amid rising anti-German sentiment, the royal family rebranded their house as Windsor to sound more English.
England was ruled by German nobility because the Anglo-Saxons invaded and conquered Britain after the Roman Empire collapsed in the 5th century CE. The Anglo-Saxons were largely from the areas of Europe that today corresponds with Germany and Denmark (Anglia, where we get "anglo" meaning "English" from, was a part of what we'd call northern Germany today).
They should do a Stand Against Fascism tour with Roger Waters. People are going back to sleep, they need to be woken up.
Bad idea to invert the reincarnation symbol. Really bad idea
Nazis raus!
Nazis IN!!
Me when im a liberal
Given the meaning of this song, that is the most grotesquely stupid into imaginable.
Or, just maybe, possibly, it was done fully intentionally to give you an impression what they were commenting on? Just possibly? Maybe?
😬😬
@@RustyDust101 - yeah, nah. Lindemann spoke specifically about this.

Valknut
Common, earths and pressure, churning, lights expression. Common, hearts are greying. Can man help from sailing. Fee-fi-fo-fum my hands are pressed ta flank ya. Seas sling, now, hold to them. I slay the snakes. Release, lease. Cou-ld-n’t help from singing, common iron, hearts a springing, put them in earths and rhymes, I can’t deny, oh how I despise ya. Fee-fi-fo-fum my hands are pressed ta flank ya. Sieged under, hold to them. I slay the snakes. release, release, lease, least of, I fear, waves swell, waves roll, waves swell, I feel it, flames roll, winds blow, waves roll, I feel it. This road, I fear. Common man, hurt and frightened, bite into road to dragon, all their ships are sinking, with them hearts are dank and… Fee-fi-fo-fum my hands are pressed ta flank ya. Sieged under, hold them back, the ship is under Lincoln frost. The night of heart has left them bushed. Lease, least, lease, least, lease, least, lease, least, least of, I fear. Winds blow, waves roll, let’s go, stamp your feet, flames roll, winds blow, let’s row, Valknut Link, winds blow, waves roll, let’s go, stamp your feet. Let’s go, let’s go, let’s go, I feel waves swell, winds blow, flames roll, I fell winds blow, flames roll, winds roll, Valknut Links.
1:00 sorry, dislike.

so rammstein is communist... Yikes
Left doesn't mean communist.
they grew up in the gdr
@@muffinman5741 Only Kruspe grew up in the GDR.
Furry avatar, yikes
@@earlofdoncaster5018 No lol? All of them did. They were all born in the GDR and lived there for a certain period of time.
What does the word "nazis" mean? Means this opposition or national socialism? (In the communist dictatorships, they were called all who opposed communism for "nazis".) If "nazis" does mean national socialisam, then this is left. Both communism and national socialism are left.
National socialists are left? Are you serious?
They called themself national socialists because they wanted the workers to vote for them instead of voting for the KPD or SPD but their politics weren't socialist. Do you also believe that North Korea is democratic? It's called the democratic Peoples republic of Korea so it has to right?
@@IchhabezuvielCZcamsgegucktO_o Totally agree
So by this logic, North Korea is actually a democratic republic because they put "Democratic People's Republic" in the name?
@@IchhabezuvielCZcamsgegucktO_oHow were national socialists NOT socialists? You americans need to open a real book.
best nazi metal ever!
Suuuuure, you *totally* got the message of the song.
Or I totally got a /whoooosh situation here. 😂😂
