Stein um Stein (Stone by Stone) Rammstein

[NexisFilms]

One of the better songs on this mediocre album ..

[MrMaarten1996]

at first I thought the song was about a dude building a house, nothing wrong, then I looked up the lyrics and now it kinda creeps me out :p

love RAMMSTEIN

[mrorange40]

en niemand hoort je janken!

[BoredOfFakeTalents]

Beautiful. . . love the drum beat..

[devilsgrin6]

Sounds like an egomaniac or a narcissist who is very insecure & in love with a girl, but he needs to control her & keep her from being free out of lack of love for himself. Her light/love inside her keeps him alive & brightens his life because he's dead inside, he feeds off her like a host, so he has to keep her where he needs her through abusing her or he may fall to pieces himself.

[elibol1010]

just another brick in the wall for rammsteins perfect collection

[Schutzstafell]

After "When I ram them into your body-wood", the following word is not "Schrei" it's "Stein".

[Brotherhoodbikechief]

if mr linderman tried to wall me into a little box like that i think HE'D be the one regretting it because i am one BIG rammstein fan

[spacebar795]

EPIC!



[dillusionalalcheimy]

STEIN UM STEIN!!!!

[HauntinglyFamous]

It's songs like this that make me really want to learn German.

[alexandervampire]

at 2:48 its STEIN!!! (STONE!!!) not SCREAM!!

[iiPwnd]

@alexandervampire he says schreien which means scream

[Upuroade]

@iiPwnd he says Stein

as in

RAMM

STEIN

[iiPwnd]

@Upuroade lol ok "fan"

[iiPwnd]

so no one will hear you stone? that makes sence hahahaha

[Upuroade]

@iiPwnd wenn ich sie in dein leibholz ramm

stein um stein

Where the fuck are you getting no one will hear you stone

[alexandervampire]

@Upuroade ok good point but in the video if i remember correctly and i could be wrong it says stein and translates it as scream

[lovetachill]

'Stein un Stein' can also mean 'Brick by Brick' but nicely done nonetheless. I suppose bricks are just a recent invention.

[Schutzstafell]

@lovetachill Don't think it matters.

[ewereszt98]

at 3:09-3:10 a girl screams

[pvsg1990]

i think he is talking about the berlin wall

[streettitanz]

@pvsg1990 I don't know about that; a few of the member of Rammstein, most often Flake, say they miss the simplicity of their lives in West Germany. And this seems to paint a pretty negative picture of whatever they're talking about.

[slade2089]

that the best about music every one sees it diffrent we all have great ideas on what it could all mean till you set down and ask them in person what there song is about its a good form of art like a great painting we all see the same picture but feel it to mean something compared to us all inside

[clauderscc]

awesome

[IbikiIroshi]

We translated this song in German Class in 7th grade...My parents were shocked by the lyrics and complained about my German teacher. For ME it was the first stone in the wall of LOVE FOR METAL!! \m/

[KingGR]

3 people cried to this song..

[TheKrasopateras]

ramm...STEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE­EEIIIIIIIN!!!!!!!

[byq500]

end sux, but rest better even then in nemes!

[rammesteiner]

I think it's about the Berlin wall and the DDR

[IamnotfattIamfluffy]

creepy but nice.... nice but creepy

[silentshoutxx]

@ 2:47 isn't he yelling "stein"?

[TheDeathWizz]

@silentshoutxx Yes, he is.

[accolyteofchaos]

reminds me of that edgar allen poe. the one with the wine celler. anyone know it?

[gremlindark]

@accolyteofchaos The Cask of Amontillado

[xeroforce5569]

@accolyteofchaos yea the cask of amontillado

[Gegengrupenfuhrur]

i cant prefer this song because it has 69 in it.

[ReneeKana]

This reminds me of the "cask of amontillado" by Poe....

[BloodofSpartans]

@ReneeKana I did English homework for that story while listening to this song. It took a while for the huge irony to hit me. And now for the obligatory reference: "For the love of God, Montresor!"

[PyroFiend94]

@ReneeKana omg great story lol

[ListenerOfShadows]

About the whole abuse thing... let me remind you that songs - great songs in particular - tend to have a symbolic meaning within their lyrics.

Also, if it was in English, most of today's fans probably wouldn't be interested in it. Rammstein is Rammstein only in German imo... and yes, I do speak German, but I thought more people would understand me in English, so yeah...

[undeathguppie]

if you like this, listen: in my tears of emigrate

is abdn of richard kruspe, gitarist of rammstein

[injuryandinsult]

It reminds me of that horrible Fritzl affair in Austria... but it was found out only in 2007 so I don't see how this song can refer to this..

[BloodofSpartans]

@injuryandinsult The Fritzl affair is the subject of the much creepier Weiner Blut, released on the Liebe Ist Fur Alle Da album. Stein Um Stein is more generic, but it certainly does bring to mind the same topic.

[Boonester6]

@BloodofSpartans I believe Stein Um Stein is about the Berlin Wall, least that's what I strongly get from the lyrics, even the title.

[chicagobears1989]

@Boonester6 Nein its about a monologue about someone building a little house to entomb his victim alive – a possible interpretation of Edgar Allan Poe’s The Cask of Amontillado.

[mustaleskier]

Architects - Rammstein fans Song ...

[mustaleskier]

Architects - Rammsteion fans song ...

[wazzayall1]

how come everytime i come to listen to this song i seen comments about their music being about hitler and the haulocaust. no its not. most of their songs come from personal experience or stories they heard. but im not here to rant. just my $.02 awesome song! HEIL RAMMSTEIN!!

[chicagobears1989]

@wazzayall1 Notice its only americans that make thsoe comments lol they dont bother me and im german

[MrRzareckiwuzhere]

@chicagobears1989 yes ur german but ur name is chicagobears1989 XD!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[chicagobears1989]

@MrRzareckiwuzhere my name is chicagobers1989 because im a fan of the chicagoe bears and I was born in 1989 dummer

[chicagobears1989]

@MrRzareckiwuzhere what does that have to do with me being german?

[MrRzareckiwuzhere]

@chicagobears1989 but u said nein like u live in germany im german too but i live in america 3rd generation american but i speak little german and u are german who lives in america whose name is chicago bears 1989 and saying neine >.>

[chicagobears1989]

@MrRzareckiwuzhere I know how to speak some german and I speak english just because I say nein doesnt mean I live in germany even though I wish I did

[ProRanting]

With all these amazing bands all over the world from many different time periods I've never had the comfort to give a song the title of "my favorite song".

I'm going to be suddle and say this song changes that.

[GdtNazgreL]

EXCELLEND video my friend

[kiwikiev2006]

It's about Hitlers plan to end the Jews, nothing new about it. It all started hundreds of years ago in Germany. Passionate and darkly beautiful, a pinacle of a tribute.

[gielomir2]

@kiwikiev2006 its about the berlin wall

[trentkill]

@kiwikiev2006 LOL

[MysicJynkie]

I've memorized it (in German of course)

[BoredOfFakeTalents]

When I heard this song for the first time and didn't know what the lyrics were translated in English I thought the song was about the singer''s anger towards Steven Speilberg for making Hook.

[BoredOfFakeTalents]

Kick ass song.

[evilmantrent]

good song, but did they have to use the exact same part from rosenrot (when hes saying stein um stein... )

[USERNAME8466]

End of song is Baddazz whole song is LOLOLOLOL

[dominicro]

I wall you in = I build you in

I assume :)

[Alcatar]

2:51 is "STEIN!!!" not "SCHREIN!!!"

[BurianAttila]

@Alcatar

Indeed, and so is it a wordplay on "..ramm! -STEIN!!!"

[LionsTigersAndTrouts]

I think the reason I hold Rammstein so close is because their lyrics are honest and unrelenting. They're completely direct and they're presented in such a heartfelt manner.

[avenge8fold626]

hes yellin stein by the way, not just randomly screamin

[SelfInflictedDeicide]

I wasn't paying attention to the whole song, but the translation was partially incorrect.

[LionsTigersAndTrouts]

@SelfInflictedDeicide Please specify which part.

[filippioss]

very interesting song

[1chivasskillz0]

i want rammstein to come to the us, they need to come again!!

[darklordchaosXD]

RAMMSTEIN FTW :D XD

[Diemotherfkr]

beast ass song

[AwestaKhalid]

thanks for the translatons.. sounds cool... even better in german i bet.

[flamingpoodleofdoom]

This song has the same girl scream in the background as Rosenrot.

[vangouh1]

I would say this is the best song ever, but Rammstein has so many, so it would be false to make that declaration.

[HL2MODvideos]

This song is awesome, but the lyrics are sick o.o

and the pic just makes it all more awesome :3

[Slayer65W11]

Why this song remembers to a child abuse?

There is no point to think on that.....

[Dimitryyyyy]

i would use "cry" instead of scream

after the "garden part"

[Lord0of0Minnegard]

schöne Übersetzung..... kompliment

[yagamilight500]

thanks for uploading this powerfull song

but there is one mistake.. at 2:47 he doesn't sing schrein (scream), he sings Stein.. when you connect it to that what he singed before, he sings Ramm...Stein.. you get it? ;)

[Substitoad]

wich album?

[Dymethylz]

Alle Nägel stehen stramm, wenn ich sie in dein Leibholz RAMM - STEEEEEEEEIN

[nalzram]

darkness or duckness??

[Tischlernation]

Stein um Stein mauer ich dich ein

[aalglater]

yeah u really have to listen to " wiener blut " thats harder than this

but one of the best songs from rammstein for me..

ich sag nur 23 november 2009 bestes konzert :P

[Porranaofunciona]

rammstein is pure poetry

[aauke]

rock!!!

thnx for making this man

[ColdaxxSnow]

Bra låt

[KEROT4N]

then listen to "wiener blut"

[Rammsteinfreaker]

Einfach nur krass, zum abrocken.

[alexiswes]

I agree...This song eerily applies to Fritzl now...

[abigailharrison]

yay! i love this song!

[blues260]

well .. it is a great song.. but it reminds me this child abuse in austria where this girl was locked in this dungeon...

it's a cool song though..

[cinderellacorpse]

@blues260 but they also did a song about that...wiener blut .__.

[Lulzrustypipes]

@blues260

That would be Weinna Blut

[hamiste]

@Lulzrustypipes weiner blut

[Lulzrustypipes]

@hamiste

This

[flamingpoodleofdoom]

@blues260 and everyone who want to know;

this song is about how love can be restrictive.

[Rockmaster2112]

@blues260 Nope, this is not that song, the song you're thinking of is Wiener Blut. Just thought you'd like to know.

[Rockmaster2112]

@blues260 And why am I replying to this year old comment, I really have no idea...

[TheACE2800]

@blues260 they have a song about that case called wiener blut now btw or allegedly about that case.

[CastleXTV]

@blues260 Actually, the song "Wiener Blut" is EXACTLY about that.

If you want more detail about that, google "Josef Fritzl". This song is more about obsession than domestic abuse.

[WindowsTricks001]

@CastleXTV Actually, some say it's an allusion to a Poe poem, and others say it refers to the Berlin Wall.

[AbeDirty]

@blues260 Then listen to wiener blut, cause that is what this song is all about. :)

[joelibermann]

@blues260

yeah they wrote a song about that too. It's called Wiener Blut

[assassinsblade010010]

@blues260 Still if they had rammstein to listen to....

[uiruu]

@blues260 I'm pretty sure (if we're talking about the same thing) that they have a song about that. Wiener Blut.

[HeavyAcid666]

@blues260 I think I know what you're talking about, where the girl's father locked her in a secret basement dungeon that he built for something like 20 years? I think Rammstein actually wrote another song about it directly but I don't remember.

[TheKrasopateras]

@HeavyAcid666 in austria yes..search about when that happened and when this song was published,if it fits then maybe its inspired by that fact...in fact a lot of rammstein songs are inspired by something..even mutter for example was written to explain the bad relationship till and richard had with their mothers,they said it and many other examples along with that about their songs

[TheKrasopateras]

@HeavyAcid666 just saw the documentary which explained everything with every detail...the lyrics of this song match what happened PERFECTLY..even for the fact that there were no windows,no light in at all,small,the fact that he was planning this for these years before closing her in,the fact that if you remain in a room for 24 years you become a part of it,the fact that he built it on his own,the fact that he wanted her to be always next to her to abuse her sexually..watch the lyrics above...

[TheKrasopateras]

@HeavyAcid666 the song could also refer to "stein um stein"(another brick in the wall)..in the german version of the song in its chorus that phrase is used,but the rest of the lyrics dont match it..anyways rammstein uber alles,nice song:P

[BigBolner]

@blues260 (: you don't know rammstein well, then.

[failedassassin]

@blues260 Ramstein is good but sometimes they scare me :( They are really intense and not afraid to display the evil they see at all.

[sorrypapawxz]

Good sound quality.

[Leftyotism]

Polloles.. lern liebr mal richtig deutsch...

is ja peinlich, was man da lese muss..

Rammstein bumst euch alle weg^^

[blues260]

deine rechtschreibung rockt fuer jemanden der so nen spruch bringt @ leftyotism

[Leftyotism]

ach, da vergisst man einma' 'n e.. ps. der rest is dialekt ;P

[Polloles]

Rammstein hast die besste Deutsche lieden

[sgthobbes2]

Ok two problems:

When he says "Ich' werde immer bei dir sein" you make it look like "sein" means "you" which it does not. It means "to be"

Literally "I will always by you be"

And when he screams Stein, it means stone, not scream...

[Leftyotism]

"i will always be by you" ;)

[BfLNanoX]

Die Texte sind im Video falsch übersetzt...

Wenn man kein englisch kann, bleiben lassen!

[sgthobbes2]

aba der kann kein DEUTSCH hahahhaha

[chocopudding08]

xDDD

[NIKKKRED]

Lol sorry but Im very happy that they are german band...German language so beautiful for music than American English :) I dont mean to offend but its the truth.

[calavera963]

true, very true

[dakrky65]

wow; absolute correct translation of my famous Rammstein song!!!!!!!

[zepterzocker]

thats not SCREAM!!!! its STONE!!!/STEIN!!!!

[aante9111]

he doesnt say stein..

[aante9111]

Und niemand hört dich schreien

[aante9111]

oh the secound time sorry my bad.

it says ramm  steeeeeeeeeein.

=)

[Faggythefaggot]

@zepterzocker 'und niemand hört dich SCHREEEEEEEEEEI'N' ;D

[MrRzareckiwuzhere]

@zepterzocker actually dumbass slein!!!!!!!!! means scream so uhhh yeah no one will hear you STONE!!!! makes no sense

[uiruu]

@MrRzareckiwuzhere No it does not. "Schreien" means scream. And yes, They say "niemand hoert dich SCHREIEEEEEEENNNNN!!!!!!!!" So you were right, they said scream not stone. That is, at 1:52. HOWEVER... at 2:46, they say STEIN!! meaning stone. Reason: In german, the last word in the previous sentence was Ramm. So after that they scream Stein. You know, like Rammstein. But it's sort of a lesser known pun.

[Thaddeus1992]

geil geil geil geil geil!!

[theyoda55]

i can picture the perfect music vid, but i got the feeling it was more the guy's wife. that would make it more dramatic and explain why he was going through all this trouble to "always be with you". i can see him in the beggining come home to his wife with a dark look (maybe 200 or so years ago) and during the song it jumps a lot timeline wise from killing his wife, building his house, and him in a completed house. the 'stein um stein' part be from 'her' point of view as he walls her up.

[DeathAndMajesty]

In my head the video would feature his wife not dying, but her being chained to a concrete foundation in good health. The the point of the "house" would be lost with her death. She cannot scream if she is dead. The intro to the song would be setting the mood between them, the body would be him building the tomb with her bound and watching him. It would finish with the placement of the last brick followed by a silhouette of the tomb and him in front of a sunset. "We are together now."

[heynsabombs]

What a fantastic voice! Absolutely spine chilling! This is my favorite Rammstein song.

[DeathAndMajesty]

Reise Reise was their greatest effort. Followed so closely by Mutter and Sehnsucht.

[fiskelishen]

in my opinion ,is that the best song from rammstein

[6969cobra]

BeaUTiful!

[harlekin99]

nice work!!! but there´s one little mistake at 2:47! its not scream its stone!!!! ;-)

[peter7krejci7]

to me this song seems to be about the berlin wall.....

most countrymen refer to their country as a woman. and the garden could be refering to the mass grave because they shot anyone that tried to get past the berlin wall

[DirEnGrey93]

Actually, this song was based off of a poem by Edgar Allen Poe. The poem is called 'The Cask of Amontillado'. Once you read it, all of it will sound exactly the same and come together.

[CrazyPivoteh]

i read it but cant remember it,something about wine and killing someone thats all i remember

[DirEnGrey93]

Yeah. They way he kills the guy in the poem is the same exact way this guy dies in the song.

[CrazyPivoteh]

Oh yeah now i remember!thanks man

[DirEnGrey93]

haha I'm a girl, but no problem anyway

[CrazyPivoteh]

haha sorry

[TheIncredibleCG]

pretty adventurous to say, that the song is based on this poem, that even ain`t a real poem. But at least in the fact, that he walls somebody in is not whole different to the "poem".

[butterbiscuit20]

best song ever

[slade2089]

thanks i like the song myself to

[ababastingababa]

Good Job!!^^

[Avirexwun]

hye just one thing,,when he says ich werde immer bei ihr sein,, sein means to be but when hes holding the note it says you,,, but it makes sense anyways loll nice video

[luiservi07]

wow!!!! lo ke dice es genial y a la vez muy siniestrooo.los de rammstein son unos genios jejeej

[VampireOnCemetery]

super!!!!!!!

[Excentner]

Super! The only thing I would like to mention - "Ich werde immer BEI dir sein" and "Ich werde immer MIT dir sein" are far not the same in German ;)

Here we have the situation that he 's gonna be BY HER SIDE, but not WITH HER ;)

Anyhow, a great song and a very good cut!

[MichelleRivka]

EXACLY!! it is a good song with a genius lirycs! :)

[Zombiex3]

5 stars :] even if it isnt right sometimes ^__^ good job tho

[cheshirepuss]

this is a faboo vid slade... i hope the others are just as good

love rocell
