Wait, Links 2 3 4 makes people feel uncomfortable? Also, you can't even find the Pussy music video on YouTube because it would against the TOS...

You should have laughed and continue as I did.

I don't remember exactly how I got into Rammstein but I know the first song I liked was "Du Hast". I had the single and the video on my iPod almost as soon as it came out of the box in 2007. I think what drew me to it was the hard heavyness of it. I didn't get really into them until the end of last year. Up until now, I've mostly been into the Beatles, who are now tied for my favorite band with R+.

@Edelweiss My family is from the Buffalo area and we are VERY Polish! LOL We even like to celebrate Dingus Day.

I've heard of them before, but never really put some time into listening or understanding their lyrics until a few years ago. I believe it was Te Quiero Puta that was the final spark that would ignite my interest. I heard it by complete accident and didn't actually know who the artist was. I tried my best to re-write the lyrics into Google, and found out that it was a Rammstein song. At the same time, a friend of mine had been heavily interested in Rammstein. He showed me a bunch of tracks, and gradually I actually became a bigger fan than him.

I got into Rammstein seriously around 97-98. though i remember now I've had 'Du riechst so gut' on the tape casette as a part of compilation I borrowed from a friend when still in uni, so must be even before that. whoa, I feel like a dinosaur

I've known Rammstein since 2006, but never really bothered listening to them, since they weren't really my kind of music (I was in my metal elitist days, where I shunned everything that was mainstream, you know). Well, until some time ago, they played a live version Ich Will on TV, that's where I got interested.I've only listened to some songs of them like Sonne, Mutter, Rosenrot etc. I really got into them in 2008, when I saw the Amerika video. I found it funny, and thought I'll analyse this band deeper. And the rest is history.

@You: Well, music doesn't necessarily need to be really complex to be good, actually the simple songs are catchier than the complicated ones. Even Rammstein are really simple some time. And Hip Hop isn't that bad, you just need to listen to the right artists.

I got into them when Du Hast came out in the states. I always loved Germany but never knew why. Later on when I moved to Buffalo I found out I was actually half German and not Polish with a German name, which is what I had thought growing up. Buffalonians were quick to tell me they could tell I was German cuz of my last name, my facial features and little things like I celebrate ST Nick's day. So I dug around a bit and found my Grandfather was Sudetendeutsch. My Grandmothers family came from what is now the Czech Republic but used to be Austria.
I always missed R+ when they came in concert but never stopped loving them. Now that I have seen them live I want to see them again.

I was still in my hip hop days

ohno =o

i dont know how but i guess i was the only one who was never ever into that easier/simpler kind of music. even the very old console games i played had was better music than mainstream stuffs (and mainstream wasnt as bad as now either[they still played stuff like Sweet Dreams and What is love in radio])
and those trends like tecktonic were so horrible that i would never ever have considered to like them

i first heard Rammstein when my brother's friend gave a cd to him with some singles and others on it from them with some text files with nottoogood hungarian translations included. (it had "Hitler" instead of Sonne though. ehh). back then i didnt even have internet so i only kept listening to those stuffs that were on it. then later when i had it and saw a live performance of them on some kind of music channel i started getting more into them :O
so well yeap. thats how i got into them. i guess i heard Feuer Frei in xXx before that or something but that didnt influence me much
before this i never listened specifically to one band. and i guess The Offspring was the only one i knew more songs from. had some Nirvana songs too

I first got to know them when I was 14 and got the album Mutter from my eldest brother. I was still in my hip hop days, so I didn't really care for this music. But as it was new, and my brother told me it was really ace, I gave it a chance. Thank god for that! I was sold immediately and listened constantly to the record for like a year. It made me appreciate other rock as well and turned me away from hip hop into rock (like Nirvana, GNR, Metallica, Iron Maiden etc.). My interest in the band only increased from than on, and today I can happily tell that they're my nr. 1 band.

First heard of them performing 'ich will' live on MTV Europe awards. Can't remember the year but wow, hooked!

[Rosenrot]

I have listened to Rammstein about ten years, thanks to my brother! He listened to feuer frei one day and that's it! I fell in love. He helped me to find the worlds most wonderful and lovable band and here i am now! I listen to their music every day and often find myself singing along. Well, that's over the subject but anyway ...And i can tell that it really was the happiest day of my life when i saw them live last month. That was absolutely amazing.
