OOMPH! - Ready Or Not (I'm Coming)

[unikornzrferrealz]

I'm Mexican.. And I prefer the German version.

[MuseGem]

I like it but I think the original German is better :) I found that's it's the same case with Rammstein's English version of Du Hast too - it's much better sung in the native tongue :)

[RECpunky]

Flows way better in German.

[TheZerstorenXXX]

I make you my souvenir

[MARCOSBAEZKPO]

The German song is better

[dangerwolf100]

@MARCOSBAEZKPO ikr

[lolmeadia]

@MARCOSBAEZKPO that's an opinion.

[dangerwolf100]

the germen versions sounds like "bad mouth is coming"

[TheGorale97]

who agrees that the german version is better.

[Diegocrue]

@TheGorale97 i think everyone is agree

[MrsShanonBrown]

If they didn't make songs in english then alot of ppl wouldn't know what the song is about. I first heard it in german and I thought it had something to do with a birthday party... maybe a really screwed up birthday song??

[dubraybuckeye13]

DISLIKE!!!!! Why do you have to ruin such a good song?!?

[kevinxp06]

55 people aren't ready :)

[parker1991s]

song is way better in german, but i cant complain i love this band regardless of what they sing, all their music is great, and plus their all super sexy ;)

[Dsis8674]

if you're gonna do an english version of this song; the least you can do is translate it correctly

[deadserpant123]

It sounds so much better in german \m/ :3\m/

[Cherrynehi]

He reminds me of The Crow... Not only is it the facepaint, but the music sort of fits, too, don't you think?

[ApathethicJustice]

ready or not im cumming haha. I love this band

[michaelveng]

Better in German :)

[musicangel2121]

I like the german song cause it fits better but i love the english one just cause i know what they are saying xD

[blackrose2o]

i'll never look at my little sisters the same way again! XD

[punkluver8898]

I prefer the german version tbh but I like this one ^-^

[portoso89]

is the kid counting to ten?.i cant speak german, my friend got me hooked on these guys. both versions r great, both get stuck in my head.

[SynysterMp]

@portoso89 yeah when the kid talks he is counting from one to ten

[RaistlianMajerie]

i like their English stuff, but as a German speaker I like the German version better

[XxCrusnik06xX]

I love this song but i dnt get the video

[Ayltje]

hm, It's part English and part German. That's annoying. And I already knew the German version, and because I know one version first (for long time), I prefer the version I knew first. Not only with different languages of one band, but also with covers. That's just what I have...

[chinskis2]

English lyric totally doesn't fit to the music... It sounds terrible, so unnatural.

[DUCKYtheblade]

There so cute!! I know there trying to go with this creepy persona. But they just seem hug-able.

[dangyraco]

I don't speak German language at all, but.. non of the English versions sound better, not all of them ever sound good, so guys - stick to your language

[007pineapp]

@dangyraco I don't speak German at all too, but honestly, German music is really cool. I suppose English versions are only translations so we can know what they're saying.

[TheDucksrule5]

@dangyraco hey ok they want people to know how to speak german to english k stay to ur language k i can speak german and english and so much more and it doesnt mean u have to be a douche and say stay to ur language k get a life kid

[007pineapp]

Jigsaw should sing this in the next Saw movie!

[zasranka85]

мне на немецком больше нравится

[4g32qu1ckly117]

sounds awesome but i dont understand the video?

[rcscreamy]

German hide and seek!

[MrsCogito]

i kinda feel like english is almost too soft of a language to properly express this songs... it doesnt sound so demonic anymore... and the english lyrics dont flow as good with the rhythm either. I really prefer working on my german to understand their songs than listening them in english...

[DoubleAA1713]

did you know that german is the closest related language to english? :)

[cesarrogeliogarza]

who's noticed in alot of thier videos; the people are eating food...O_o

[nucleardeathrize]

@cesarrogeliogarza subliminal messaging ?

[XxSYCOSLAYER15xX]

@cesarrogeliogarza lol usually it seems like cake ^o^ .... wait a sec.... :O THE CAKE IS A LIE! O.o

[ProblmSolvd]

@cesarrogeliogarza Gluttony, scariest of the 7 deadly sins if you really think about it.

[lunaloveegood]

@cesarrogeliogarza maybe, Dero and others like eat food :) Maybe the message is deeper.

[JKookieez]

Anyone else notice that this video and the German one, are flipped? o.o

[ShadowGhost777]

is dero playing as a reverand?..... oh thats badass

[RetteElena]

oh my this sounds so weird o.O I like the German version better

[ShadowGhost777]

@RetteElena oh well thats find i like the german version too

[ShadowGhost777]

im broken between the english and german version of this song sure german is the original version and everyone loves the original but i also think the beat and rythem flow better with english... thumbs up if your having the same problem

[Etalimissa]

My God, Oomph! are amazing beyond belief!!

[LsSugarAddiction]

I want a birthday party like that ;3

[GretchenLikesToEat]

they're better in German.

[justysgrimm]

What is the kid saying at 2:38? I was hoping the English version would translate it... Oh well.. Thanks :P

[bluetrancefer]

@justysgrimm Eins, zwei, drei, vier, Eckstein, alles muss versteckt sein.

One, two, three, four, cornerstone, everything must be hidden.

[Alenzo18]

German version is so Much Better ... Dero is My Childhood Hero !

[HappyIsFleeting]

Ehhhhh Deutsch ist besser. Tho this one is good just German flows better when you keep it in the same language. Just sayin'!

[QMduchoReturns]

Readyornotimcoming I think I prefer the German version just because of that xD

[mrkirkha1]

el aleman suena mas rudo

[justysgrimm]

@LsSugarAddiction Its a different guy, but they sound alike :P

[LsSugarAddiction]

Twins? :P ;) XD

[justysgrimm]

@LsSugarAddiction :P

[godmodwhore]

Whats Eckstein?

[I0IRutilusI0I]

@godmodwhore Cornerstone

[godmodwhore]

@I0IRutilusI0I Thank you ^_^

[iPRiiflex]

@godmodwhore Cornerstone

[BrennendeHeart]

i'm english but i like the german better lol.

[nightslayer23]

well i like german better then english i am a great fan of oomph but the english album truth or dare doesnt fit in fore me i more like it german and they must make a new album in german i know they make good english songs but i more prefer germn ^_^ and i am from holland :P

[69Cabeast]

@nightslayer23 I just hope they just keep doing what they do best and I don't mind a dual language band they're rare especially at this talent level OOMPH ROCKZ!

[noillinxxx]

Pray to your god - I'm coming ;D

[yafteful]

buena musica ;D

[Kreeperss]

I live in Holland so I can understand German as good as I can understand English and I love it both!! OOMPH for ever!!! :)

[TabbiCat101]

I WANT DERO THE CLOWN AT MY BIRTHDAY PARTY DAMN IT

[HorsexoxGirl]

i freaking love German, and this band. Why weren't I born in Germany? D:

[rapid22401]

bin das nur ich oder sagt das kind bei 2.32 alles in deutsch!!

wirkt irgendwie bizarre

[SilviaBritt]

hm, don't like this one in English. The German version sounds wayyyyy better.

[YuukiHyouketsu]

i always like the original versions of all songs in other languages, (the english version of Labyrinth sucks -_-) but it was interesting to hear this one in english. it better show the relationship of the "hide and seek" game that this almost seems to be based off of than the original (other than the counting, and the mother being blindfolded) as this song states "ready or not, i'm comming" in the chorus. sort of chilling...videos of demonic children usually are ^^

[CelticIrishGothGirl]

Have to say that i know the German lyrics better then the English

[sirauron911911]

i've only watched 3 of their videos now...but for some reason each of them has included children and people eating cake 0.0

[trekkieqwerty]

omg this kinda sucks xD i dont even speak german and it sounds soo much better in the original. why does it have to be in english, no one has to understand the lyrics to be able to appreciate the music..

[devinmikael]

ugh this song just got butchered by the english language... reminds me of the english Du Hast which was also bad.

[chemical2romance]

I love how there still counting in German and still saying cornerstone in German but this is supposed to be the English version.

[gaaralover221]

i love his face at 2:21

[holyrainbowballz]

Nope. Just not the same. I like him better when I can't understand him ^-^

[number1historybuff]

The English version is shit in every way possible. Can't blame the band though. The rest of the world elected to narrow their tastes to radio-friendly, English crap.

[XxXVampiriaxXx]

@number1historybuff I agree...German version OOOOWNS IT!!!

[TheSurfaceofTheMoon]

@number1historybuff why do you speak english if you hate it so much? i seriously see no difference besides the tones of voice which pop up rarely. i love both versions.

[GhostWarrior97]

this song kicks ass

[ZAHALgeneral]

english...german...who cares:P still awesome!!

[TheHappiSoldier]

I don't know about you guys, really, but I like this version better. :p

I truly don't see the difference between the German and English version though. Both are great, and sound like Dero.

I think both hold the same emotion, so...I really don't see why it's such a big deal: which one is better or not. :I

[Lirrink1776]

@TheHappiSoldier Some of the songs are definitly better in German, but I agree this version doesn't lose anything

[ChloeVilar]

@TheHappiSoldier Lyrics are changed to improve flow from language to language. The flow isn't the same in the english version. The chorus "Ready or not I'm coming" doesn't flow that great with the music, but that could just be me. ^_^

[blade3337]

@ChloeVilar I noticed the lyrics didn't have much "flow" in the english version of Labyrinth.

[helterskelter416]

@ChloeVilar

this is one of the few songs that fairs well after translation. it actually sounds and flows better in english.

[rinkouen13]

@ChloeVilar You're not the only person who has noticed it doesn't flow that well.

[dubraybuckeye13]

@ChloeVilar WELL the actual translation is "Eyes open, Im coming". lol. Regardless, i think its retarded that people have started posting their music in english. In my oppinion, it just ruins the whole song....

[MastaKadaj]

@dubraybuckeye13 I disagree, I think it's very interesting to see what songs sound like in different languages. This isn't the best example, but there are a lot of songs that sound great in different languages. All personal preference, though.

[Un1TScooters]

@TheHappiSoldier Both of them ARE dero :/

[Schwarzeseele00]

German is better without a doubt!

[Glitter911s]

@Schwarzeseele00 same fucking thing

[BigWill076]

I liked the German better. He was more expressive, I think. Or maybe it's just some quality of the language that adds a darker tone to the music. No offense intended to you German and German-speaking folks out there if that seems insulting. I can't speak it, but I definitely preferred it in German.

[xkiellaxrozex]

@BigWill076 german lango just has a heavier accent to the letters and the way they r pronounced :)

[gendu98]

men i dont like this one version

but WHY THE FCK I STILL SINGING THIS version of the SONG??? X_X

[msstacykrueger]

Does he have a little fetish with little kids or something?? XD haha.

[rammsteinicob]

Why did I hear "Ready or not I'm Cuming!"? x)

[gendu98]

@rammsteinicob because you see much porn XD

[gendu98]

Im not German

But

THIS ENGLISH VERSION SUCKS

[KissTheStarsXXO]

Dero is the most goregous man I've ever seen, by far! <3

[TheKerosins]

Ekstein,Ekstein...............­.....

[Kainasse]

I love both German flows better but it is nice to introduce people into them by giving them an english cd

[DARKENEDBLUESKY]

The german version just sounds so much more... EPIC

[MrzzGaGa]

i want him o.O

[evilceel]

english one kinda freaks me out a little prefure german it feels right

[MMusashi7]

FIFA 2005!

[TaintedWingedPrince]

Dear Dero

How are you so awesome and can you please tell me where you get these outfits, I want them all! x)

Yours sincerely

TaintedWingedPrince

[Liiliianem]

i prefer the german version, its great! 

[pukcikpakcik]

title of this song isn't ready or not but augen auf = open eyes ;x

[TheDarkSymbiote]

@pukcikpakcik Well, if you translate it literally it means "open eyes", "watch out" or something like that, but since the song talks about hide and seek, "ready or not" makes more sense.

[FrenchFry172]

it still kinds sounds like he is saying stuff in german if you have the volume low  XD

[971redhead]

2:56

Dero, you are NOT a robot. No matter how awesome it would be....

[DmCEpiCaL01234]

Thats right put the cake down fatty

[littleperp1]

The english version sounds....strange....just the chorus though. The german version is awesome though ;)

[razorliciousxx]

this is kinda fuckin creepy xD but amazing as all their music is <3

[alicegamer22]

Why does german music always sound horrible in english?

[Callhouse]

The song is written in German and literate translation is not that good...better would be to rewrite the song a bit just to make the words fit the melody

[DamiianMata]

Porque le cambiaron de Aufen Auf a Ready Or Not (I'm Coming) ????

[rubendjp]

@DamiianMata Porque una version esta en aleman y la otra en ingles...

[DamiianMata]

@rubendjp A Ok Gracias :D

No sabia y ahora que se me gustan las 2 versiones, pero prefiero en parte a mi la de ALEMAN :D

[RavenWolf2]

Oh wow. The English version is kinda...not as cool X3

[alvarado12345678910]

@RavenWolf2 haha :p



[BitterSweetDecay]

When I hear this version Im constantly hearing it in german in my head :S GERMAN VERSION FTW D:

[Zay986]

I usually don't mind english versions but this song in english is horrible.

[TheInertia1]

sounds like SKeptical Minds:D !!! great band:D i love oomph!

[Waarivzrach]

Wayyyyy better in German.

[kogitu1]

Dero's voice is so hot when he's speaking German! I don't really enjoy the English version.

[BlackOrder0208]

eh, i like the german song better but this is still pretty good... the ready or not i'm coming though sounds kinda off... but oh well... ^^"

[StarKittenNyan]

I want to know where they found such freaky kids for this video... seriously...

[morriganxraven]

I think I'd rather face the kids from the Children of The Corn movies over these kids

[ELMITLON]

german version is much but MUCH better

[SilentRaeth1]

@ELMITLON That and it makes a lot more sense lyric wise.

[ELMITLON]

@SilentRaeth1

ja

[DaMaGeRR]

This song in english is pure shit

[JustMushi]

@DaMaGeRR Hey, I wanted to say that! :P

[maskedleyend]

i learn with rammstein to count to 9 and this song teach me to count to 10 :D

[MattyPS]

really sounds better in german

though it's nice because i can understand it!

[bigbuckeyes]

I wouldn't say it is "bad" in english. Its just that we are used to the german version, and then when he says "ready or not im coming" it is wordy, one of those instances when english is wordier than german. So it sounds weird, apart from the chorus i think it translates pretty well.

[TheDukeofVampires]

i believe the term "lost in translation" is in need here

[TaintedSuffering]

The english version is very wordy, but it has to be to get the point across. That being said, I believe the German version is better; but I think the English version is much better than a lot of other English songs.

[00vaag]

Bit ironic, in germany most english films on the german telivision are synced to german. But Oomph syncs their music from German to English.

[tenatios]

i dont see why people have such a grudge against this version, granted the german one is better but thats because it was meant to be sung in german, english words dont quite fit the rhythm sometimes, its still good nontheless though

[bloodyrockfire]

@tenatios "Augen auf" is a disappointment for me anyhow.I sure hope they know what they're doing drifting to this mainstream style

[panczterype]

zajebiste ale uwazam, ze oryginalna wersja niemiecka lepsza. pozdro dla fanow oomph'a

[Missfantasygeek]

can someone tell me what the kid is saying at 2:34?

[TaintedSuffering]

@Missfantasygeek The child is saying "One, two, thee, four, Cornerstone. Everything must be hidden." In exact translation. But 'Cornerstone' is the name of a game in Germany that's equivalent to our 'Hide and Seek'. Hope that helps. :)

[Missfantasygeek]

@TaintedSuffering thank you so much!

[blackoutcider]

coolest three mins an 35 seconds of my day so far

[MultiAnimelover1234]

o_0 the original is the best! this is not.... welcome to my playtime >:)

its about the story where the children killed adults for fun...creepy story.this song portrays it amazingly.

[Jozsef86330]

@MultiAnimelover1234 Can you tell more about that story?

[MultiAnimelover1234]

@Jozsef86330 well i dont remember some of it.... but i guess i could tell a little of it. well this songportrays the time when the children were still with there parents. but later after they kill their parents they are on the run from the government and kill all the way. but eventually they are caught and sent to death.

[Jozsef86330]

@MultiAnimelover1234 thanks for the reply

[Kasagikun]

They actually did a good english version of this.

[themis1990zax]

this english version is despicable...-.-

[YamsRyu]

@themis1990zax

I no rite because everyone can understand german?

I like this as much as the german version.

I love how people like you QQ something is better than the other when BOTH songs are better than anything christ.

[Wolfboy183]

I'll admit, I don't know what the German lyrics mean, but hearing this in English is making me trip balls

[wesTHEcameraguy]

his make up looks like The Crow its a movie with bradon lee its a great movie and this is a great song

[PunkdRebel]

No. No cake for you fatty.

[82599ash]

@PunkdRebel love it 

[exilex666]

@PunkdRebel dude that kid looked PISSED about not getting his cake haha

[TwistedIn2b1tch]

@PunkdRebel no sodomy 4 u then

[PunkdRebel]

@TwistedIn2b1tch Do you even know the meaning of sodomy may i ask? What on earth dose oral have to do with cake? o.o" Strange person you are.

[su4onka666]

@PunkdRebel Sodomy is anal sex,and was the term for a Mature Male raping a boy in ancient Greece

[PunkdRebel]

@su4onka666 actuly Sodomy is any form of "unnatural sex" so your right, but thats not its only meaning.

(not actuly PunkedRebel, she just left her account loged in on my pc and cba to log mine.)

[The1Sarahliii]

@PunkdRebel yes,yes cake for thin people

[PunkdRebel]

Meh screw that horrible looking cake, ill steal the three smarties on the table instead.
