"Mein Herz Brennt(Explicit)"

[laguera25]

The intellectual thoughts first. Like its predecessor, "Mein Herz Brennt(Piano Version)", the visuals and atmosphere were decadent and stunning, and I enjoyed the disturbing, nightmarish imagery that reminded me of Kafka and Hieronymous Bosch by turns. Before the video was released, there were more than a few fans rolling their eyes and snickering about Till's costume on the cover of the single, but when seen in practice, there was nothing funny about it. He wasn't terrifying, but he was unsettling, and there was nary a whiff of the tragic, Byronian hero about him.

I wasn't sure what to make of Richard writhing in bed. My first thought was that he was in labor; then I thought he was having a seizure. Someone on the Herzeleid forums speculated that the bald woman was, in fact, a succubus, and thus, Richard was having a wet dream. Given the children in the video, this theory makes sense, though I must shamefully confess that my first thought was that if that were true, then he really needed to work on his sex faces. Then I considered that sex with succubi wasn't consensual and might therefore be painful and traumatic; rape, after all, is an ugly, violating experience. So, sorry, Richard, for thinking your sex faces were unappealing.

And now I will conduct an analysis of the video with the brain in my underpants.

God, Richard writhing in that bed is totally hot. I should absolutely write a hurt/comfort fic someday.

Why does Christoph always look so good in a dress? How? Ngggh.

"Why does Christoph always look good in a dress?". That reminded me of a non Rammstein friend of mine, who, when she first saw Frau Schneider, said: "I hate it when men make prettier women than me. Of course, they have the advantage when they're beautiful men.". Ain't that the truth. :)
