I was afraid your investigation would have led to the claim that I was incorrect about the Dutch merits, or that my translation of the Dutch lines in the lyric was wrong ;-)
But this was not the case, I noticed.

Rammstein was afraid their song could be 'hyjacked' by rightwing populists, so they did something with the images of their video and the lyrics to counter that. And I made my lyrics more humourous for the same reasons.

But what did your investigations learned you as well?

Thanks,
Hans

To be honest, I had never heard of them nor have I listened to or seen their videos...
So it was a learning experience for me just to see who they are...
