Du hast mich

Du hast mich

Du hast mich mit einem industriell angelegten Casting system in die Row Zero bugsiert, um dann in der Pause unter der Bühne mehr oder minder zwangfrei Sex zu haben

Echt krass wie wenig Leute international darüber Bescheid wissen in Anbetracht ihrer weltweiten Popularität

AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA

[-] angrymouse@lemmy.world 47 points 9 months ago

I'm Brazilian and would die there. But I can only go until Du hast mich, the the rest is mumble jumble

[-] SkyNTP@lemmy.ml 27 points 9 months ago

Pretty much everyone would say "du hast", it's so iconic. I think that's the joke? If not, this comic really doesn't stand up to scrutiny.

[-] menemen@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

Most Germans probably wouldn't though.

[-] Hyggyldy@lemmy.world 2 points 9 months ago

I can make out gefracht (probably not how it's spelled but that's how it sounds) but nothing past that.

[-] Custoslibera@lemmy.world 35 points 9 months ago

Could someone please explain the joke?

I don’t know the reference or German.

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 80 points 9 months ago

German band Rammstein has a famous song named "Du Hast" which starts off the chorus with "du ... du hast ... du hast mich etc. etc.". Du hast is German for "you have".

[-] ccdfa@lemm.ee 54 points 9 months ago

And if you're just listening to the song, the lyrics sound like "you... you hate... you hate me... you asked me...", etc. It's a play on words and you're not really supposed to understand if it's hast (have, part of a past tense phrase) or hasst (hate) until the whole sentence is out

[-] lvxferre@lemmy.ml 2 points 9 months ago

Rammstein is fan of this sort of "new verse = old verse + something that contradicts the meaning of the old verse" wordplay. It does the same in "Wo bist du", like:

  • "Ich liebe dich" - I love you
  • "Ich liebe dich nicht" - I don't love you
  • "Ich liebe dich nicht mehr" - I don't love you any more
  • "Ich liebe dich nicht mehr oder weniger als du" - I don't love you more or less than you
  • "Als du mich geliebt hast" - than you loved me [...]

with every verse forging a meaning that is destroyed in the next by the addition of (a) new word(s).

Thank you, I don’t listen to industrial metal so I was never going to get this one.

[-] ChickenLadyLovesLife@lemmy.world 33 points 9 months ago

I'm not really into industrial metal either, but Rammstein is on a plane all by themselves in terms of overall entertainment value.

[-] ColeSloth@discuss.tchncs.de 6 points 9 months ago

They are the European Metallica, and that rocks.

[-] Kecessa@sh.itjust.works 4 points 9 months ago

Well they certainly had to cancel some planes this year anyway!

[-] dangblingus@lemmy.world 8 points 9 months ago

And is a homonym of "du haßt" creating the German double entendre of "you have me/you hate me"

[-] Anticorp@lemmy.ml 6 points 9 months ago
[-] Akasazh@feddit.nl 8 points 9 months ago

You have asked me and I've said nothing

Found the real German!

[-] JohnObvious@lemmy.world 11 points 9 months ago

Pretty sure it's referencing the song Du Hast by Rammstein https://youtu.be/W3q8Od5qJio?si=KN3Cayzv1uKoXa2w

It absolutely needs accordion.

[-] fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk 27 points 9 months ago

As teens, me and my friends initially misheard this as:

Who

Who has

Who has fish?

And later in the song as:

Who has fish from France?

[-] zerofk@lemm.ee 2 points 9 months ago

Germans do love French fish.

A stammering German might inadvertently vibe up with this song: https://piped.video/watch?v=y6120QOlsfU

What's up with shooting Germans in 1997 or later?
