I like how Zeit went live 2 hours ago and theres already a video out! Awesome.
I like how Rammstein never goes easy when it comes to music videos. They always deliver masterpieces.
One reason to prove how great Rammstein is, you can enjoy their music by listening to the melody and instruments or by thinking for hours on their meanings
They are the greatest band of all time. It’s not just the music. It’s not just performance art. It is absolute perfection.
They confirmed themselves as one of the greatest band still living and making a true masterpieces 🤘🏻👏🤘🏻👏
I'm so amazed at how Rammstein can be so successful singing primarily in German. They're English language songs came after they were already famous. No other foreign language band is as successful as Rammstein is. Almost all bands need to sing in English to garner a worldwide audience. Rammstein keeping their songs in German and remaining one of the most successful bands of all time is really cool to see.
The lyrics here are those of a man of age. Till, the lyricist is near 60, and it's very interesting for him to touch on this subject.
They are not the grim reaper. They are the Norns. The Wierd sisters. The Fates. The women who spin the yarn of time and keep the Sands of Time.
By far one of the best songs to come out before Spring. In a way, it makes you want to cherish what time you have. This is truly a masterpiece, and by far going to be something people will listen to for helping put things in perspective. Makes you want to have some good times before it all finally ends.
Graham first off you dont pronounce Z in Zeit, Germans take Z as TZ so its Tzeit, second I tried to eat my breakfast just at THAT scene, should have known better
this songs really hits me so hard, not many songs can do that. This could be one of my favorite rammstein songs ever
This video and song are an absolute masterpiece. Rammstein are back to their very best. (Not that they ever left)
I like how Rammstein act as characters in their own music videos. The farmer in the video is played by bassist Oliver Riedel
As a german I can say that everyone knows the perfect moment is a proverb for saying we should know when to stop and thats maybe also a meaning cus its much likely gonna be their last album
The special thing about Rammstein is that they really transcend generations. As a 13 year old kid, I saw Ich Will on MTV and I really liked the music - it's loud, controversial and awesome and so was the rest of their stuff. And their stage antics were unlike any other. But now that I'm in my 30's I'm really starting to figure out that there's so much more to many of their lyrics and the references. It's not just loud music about controversial subjects anymore.
I’m almost 40 and I still get excited like a child every time they come out with something new because I know it’s going to be good. This was great. Can’t wait to hear the rest of the album.
As you grow older, you see people of your age fall to death and decay... Now that some of the Rammstein members are in their 50s they have this experience leading them to make this song.
As a German it's so cool to see videos like this one, picking German lyrics apart and searching through the meanings. Fun. :)
Rammstein never has dissapointed me, i literally got goosebumps through the whole video, and even teared up a little bit, what an amazing song! It's a piece of art, long live Rammstein!
I think it's also based on "Goethes Faust", Heinrich Faust will lose a bet to the devil if he wants a moment to linger forever, he will lose if he says: Ah, linger on, thou art so fair!
