Best of album revealed: "Made in Germany 1995-2011"

I'd buy Till's, but only because I'm stupidly biased.

[Jules]

^ I'd have to agree with you on that, Abendstern

Now, I've tried to compare the MiG-songlist with the rehearsal concert-setlist.. It turns out that they played 14 of the 16 songs from MiG with Rosenrot and Ohne dich being the ones they didn't play.. This means that they played 6 songs which didn't make it on MiG, and here we're talking about Sehnsucht, Asche zu Asche, Feuer frei!, Bück dich, Mann gegen Mann and Wollt ihr das Bett in Flammen sehen?.. So my point is, that they're not necessarily gonna play the exact same 20 songs at the official concerts - so try to have a bit of faith people! :'D
I gotta admit that I'm pretty satisfied with that live-setlist, except for Du hast (that song just won't die! xD), Amerika (what kinda fucked up end-song is that?! xD) and Pussy (even though it was funny to be covered in foam and confetti xD) - yeah, I'd survive a concert without these songs! :'D
About the MiG-songlist, well, I seriously think that they could have done a bit better than that - it's as if some songs just have been chosen because of their popularity, not because they're actually among their best songs :/ Rammstein and their fans obviously have different opinions about which songs are their best - kinda tragic actually! xD And that a song like Feuer frei! isn't gonna be on MiG, well, that's a mystery to me! :'D

Btw, I think it's gonna be random which of the covers you're gonna get for your MiG - sad, but true! :'D But no matter what, then I totally want the Super Deluxe Edition! ;D

[Abendstern]

Just to play devil's advocate, they wouldn't be popular if people didn't like them. I'm not saying this excuses anything, nor do I agree with the whole "popularity" thing, but it's something to think about.

Welcome back + Kein Engel +, haven't seen you in awhile ><

Well a big example is Pussy. I couldn´t believe it was going to be in the Best of and there it is. It´s popular but not for being a great song, there´s a lot of people that doesn´t like it.

[Abendstern]

^ Like Snake and me. -nods-

[cannibal_wotsit]

But then again, there's a lot of people who like it just because it is admittedly catchy and still beats most of the shit in the British music charts. Like myself -nods vigorously-

@ Abendstern
You might have a point there - but there's still people who are not into these kinda songs, especially hardcore critical fans :'D

@ cannibal_wotsit
Thank you! I guess that my confused mind forgot about the forum for a while - you know, I've way too many other things to think and worry about xD
Even though I totally dislike Pussy, then I agree: It kicks the shit out of most music on the charts, counting the Danish charts as well - we got just as much shit as any other country! xD

[cannibal_wotsit]

Ah don't worry, hope it was nothing too bad confusing you > <
Chart music generally is shit...

As a fan of British music in general, I don't know how I feel about this. I guess it depends on what exactly charts over there (because honestly, I don't keep up with what's on the charts over here, much less in other countries). If we're talking stuff like artists from "The X Factor," then I'm apt to agree with you. (I still can't believe they decided bringing that show to America was a great idea.)

[cannibal_wotsit]

Ah,sorry :/ I know how that feels

@Abendstern, it was a very good idea because now the British one is failing and possibly won't last another series

[Abendstern]

Yeah, but now I have to deal with it instead of you guys. D:
