I'm listening to "Du Hast" by Rammstein and once again it's freaking me out. I don't know why I find that song scary.

No wonder you find it scary, "Du hast" means, of course, "you have" but also-- and especially the way they pronounce it-- "you hate".
Ah, the ambiguities of pseudo-scary music...playing with certain images, fears, insecurities, whatever.
Now, if you want some good German sound, ask me. & :-P
And by the way, you sure are prolific today! & ;-)

The only other Rammstein song I've heard is "FireFight", and that was because it was used in a Gundam Wing music video. Excellent fan vid, won the best video award at last year's Fanime Convention. There's something creepy about a 9 year old lip-syncing to them.

NO kidding...
and stomping music.
Indeed. As I said, they are trying to be all weird and scary; saw them at the Bizarre Festival once where they set themselves on fire. Big freakin' "rah!". While one can get a good chuckle out of them and find them amusing, I don't fancy this kind of act much. Besides, it gives German rock/whatever a bad name.
In other words-- change the CD, luv. & ;-)

I had to dip my hand in soapy water first, and then she lit it while doing some special chemical reaction thingy. It was all multi-colored. :g: My hand was like Buffy & Spikes....

"Like Buffy and Spike." One of my new favourite phrases. Ya know, "like Romeo and Juliet, like Mulder and Scully, like Buffy and Spike."
