RAMMSTEIN SEHNSUCHT

Clearing up a misconception!

IT DOESN'T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

If you listen to the record, he says "Du, Du hast. Du, du hast, du hast mich. Du hast mich gefragt, und ich hab nichts gesagt". For those out there that don't speak German, it means "You, you have. You, you have, you have me. You have me asked, and I have nothing said". Put in a complete sentence, it means "You asked me, and I said nothing." He's asking a question, past-tense you ignorant idiots! Learn something about the language before you make a ham-fisted attempt to translate it. If it were meant to mean "You Hate", it would be "Du Hasst". Big difference.

I've studied German now for 4 years. I'm not freakin' wrong.

The whole song is a play on German wedding vows. The verses are saying "Do you want to be faithful to her until death?" and instead of saying "Ja" (yes for those of you who are clueless about other cultures) he says "Nein!" (no). The rest of the album is as good as "Du Hast", but (thankfully) much less misunderstood.
