My kids LOVE Rammstein!
My kids are now of an age where they are developing their own taste in music. They are collectively obsessed with Rammstein (I take full accountability for being a massively POSITIVE influence in that regard!).
Alongside rolling around the floor with them playing with their toys and being outside helping them to climb trees (and skin their knees), recently we’ve spent around 15 minutes each night before bath time listening to/watching Rammstein on YouTube.
I cannot tell you all how much I look forward to these 15 minutes each day. In that 15 minutes I have never known myself to feel so proud, so happy, so full of love for my kids. Music has always had the power to evoke powerful emotional responses from me and I just absolutely adore these moments we’re bonding over our favourite band. The energy and joy it brings them (even after a day of running around they’ll leap off the couch to dance and sing to Rammstein).
This may seem incredibly trivial to a lot of people, but music has always been my go-to means of therapeutic praxis and has dragged me kicking and screaming through an incredibly difficult childhood. Being able to connect with my kids through Rammstein’s music is a dream come true. They really are the happiest of times!
And for anyone wondering favourite songs that are constantly asked for:
Los, Amerika, Angst, and DRSG (mainly because they get excited by the dog in the video 😂).
