Windofthewastelands - Wind Of The Wastelands

the best Rammstein performances of a single song (in no particular order)

Sorry in advance for the lack of balance between 90s and 00s stuff, I’m biased towards the 90s (it was also hard to not just make it all LAB, lol)

1. Bizarre Festival 1997 - Spiel Mit Mir

This version is really intense and has great vocals. Till holds a doll, sucks his thumb, and violently headbangs. Also Flake plays a saw and looks fucking awesome.

2. LAB - Wilder Wein

Till’s bloody forehead. Schneider on keyboard. And of course Giant. Sombreros.

3.St. Paul 1999 - Du Riechst So Gut

This is the infamous show where the band seems to be drunk. Whether they actually were is up for debate, but they gave a wonderfully bad performance. Paul is especially hilarious and he fucks up the solo really, really badly and it’s kind of amazing. He’s also just generally weird.

4. Volkerball - Los

This song is so much better live than on the album. That crazy ending is absolutely amazing. Also everything Flake does is hilarious.

5.  LAB - Heirate Mich

This is an absolute banger. Super high energy. It also includes Till on a skateboard, the first appearance of the Kruspe Tiddies in the show, Paul playing while lying on the floor, and this sweet moment:

6. Bizarre Festival 1997 - Rammstein (Remix)

I’m usually not one for remixes but this performance is awesome! The blending of the electronic beat with the guitars is super catchy. This performance also gave us the hottest Paul moment ever:

7. Paris - Mein Teil

This has all the classic Mein Teil shenanigans, but since it’s the Paris show, it’s shot beautifully, which really adds to the performance. Till’s vocals are silky smooth and Flake is perfect as always.

8. Philipshalle 1997 - Weisses Fleisch

This is one of the most energetic Rammstein performances ever. All the bois are very active, especially Paul. But what really makes this performance is Flake pulling out the best ever dance move.

9. Big Day Out 2001 - Asche zu Asche

Now most performances of AZA have the red/pink smoke, but no performance has such incredibly thick smoke. Every shot of this performance is absolutely beautiful.

10. LAB - Du Riechst So Gut

If I had to say what Rammstein performance I thought was the most energetic, I’d probably pick this one. Describing it can’t do it justice, so I’ll just show it through gifs.

Richard makes the same face when the attention turns away from him in interviews.
