#radio by Rammstein

It is a while ago I found a interesting video relating radio, last time was in 2016 when I posted a video/music from Peter Gabriel. I was attended to this video from the German musicgroup Rammstein by a colleague. And although I am a fan from Peter Gabriel's music I don't really like Rammstein music at all. Their music sounds all the same to me. It's loud and it's hard. However, I like this video, it is absurd and not for the faint of heart. Rammstein is not a typical popmusic band and not rock or heavy metal or whatever you call it. They got their own sound and that makes them very special. This video was just brought out to the world, it's about radio....and it is in German and quite unique...turn it on loud and enjoy ;-)

....und der Deutschen kurzwellen sender, wir senden tanzmuzik....

(Verse 1)

We were not allowed to belong

See, talk or hear nothing

But every night for an hour or two

Am I gone from this world

Every night a bit happy

My ear very close to the world receiver

(Refrain)

Radio, my radio

I let myself suck into the ether

My ears become eyes

Radio, my radio

So I hear what I do not see

Silence secretly wanderlust

(Verse 2)

We were not allowed to belong

See, talk or disturb nothing

Every body of song was forbidden

So dangerous foreign notes

But every night a little happy

My ear very close to the world receiver

(Refrain)

Radio, my radio

I let myself suck into the ether

My ears become eyes

Radio, my radio (my radio)

So I hear what I do not see

Silence secretly wanderlust

(Bridge)

Every night I secretly climbed

On the back of the music

Put the ears to the wings

Sing quietly into the hands

Every night and again I fly

Just away with the music

Float through bright rooms

No borders, no fences

(Interlude)

Radio, radio

Radio, radio

(Refrain)

Radio, my radio (my radio)

I let myself suck into the ether

My ears become eyes

Radio, my radio (my radio)

So I hear what I do not see

Silence secretly wanderlust

The video made for this title takes place in post-war Germany, showing us how radio is the main protagonist. The video revolves around the role and power of radio during the world wars, censorship and persecution of those who listened to foreign stations during this period. The words "Radio" recall a time when listening to the radio at night was an act of freedom.
