  Rammstein
The video clip version of the song is slightly different from the album version, in the cd the song starts with the main riff and doesn't have the keyboard intro of the video.
Heavier guitars kick in later and the song overall is slow with an amazing verse (is it a chorus?) in the middle.
Once again the whole song is not so close to the band's usual sound although at the end of the song there is a heavy riff that reminds us that itand#8217;s actually a Rammstein song.

 Amerika (song) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
"Amerika" is a song by German band Rammstein, released as the second single from their album Reise, Reise.
It is sung largely in German with a chorus partly in English: We're all living in America, Amerika ist wunderbar, We're all living in America, America, America.
During live performances of this song, Flake is often seen riding around on a Segway HT; confetti cannons, with red, white and blue confetti in them, are also used.

i don't know what song you are listening to but if you got anti american from it it surtainly isn't this one.
This song is about how Germany, France and Russia were selling illegal arms to Saddam Hussein in violation of the UN sanctions, and meanwhile telling the USA to wait and give time for the sanctions to work.
This song is about how the "beautiful" "intelligent" members of the band Rammstein are sad because American pop culture has permeated so many other nations.

 Project Steev: We're All Living in Amerika
One of the songs is by Rammstein, who I've known about for awhile but never really gotten into, I think because I thought up till now that they were just another industrial band in the lineage of Ministry or KMFDM and not much new.
But this song "Amerika" was something that really stuck in my head.
I think it's because the song and the video are just really dark and sad and, in a way, true, showing the whole world, from Kalahari Bushmen to Tibetan monks, eating hamburgers and pizza and sitting on Santa Claus' lap and singing along with the song like puppets.

 SongMeanings | lyrics | Rammstein - Amerika
The meaning of this song is quite simple: American people live in a country that has everything you can wish for, but they don't realise that they get it all at other nations' expenses.
The song always seemed to be more about a protest of the spread of American culture, than an outright anti-American song to me..
I think the whole 'this is not a love song' might have to do with the music industry in america as well...

 Amazon.com: Jerusalem: Music: Steve Earle   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-11)
Because the song is written from the perspective of John Walker Lindh, an American youth who recently pleaded guilty to assisting the Taliban in Afghanistan, many spoke Earle's name in the same breath with traitor.
Next up is another rock song, Amerika v.6.0 which uses the Stones riff from Jumpin Jack Flash to fine effect in another song which is among the more political on the cd.
The only other song which appears on the surface to be political is the title track, which is actually a pop song about the hope for peace in Jerusalem, and by implication, the world; kind of a modern day Imagine.

 The Partial Observer - America, I Love You
The song in particular that caught my attention is the single, "Amerika." My first contact with the song was by way of the video that was released earlier this fall.
The music of the world (including this song) along with subscribing to 3 daily foreign newspapers, have opened my eyes to a world view that most Americans chose to ignore.
In the song, "Amerika," the lyrics take the form in what our country is saying to the world:

 Amerika by Tonio K. CD
But it's not at all hard for me to actually enjoy the little bit of country influence in his music.
Amerika treats you to a number of extremes.
The soft "Cinderella's Baby" is offset by a chaotic "Merzsuite Medley." The quiet sunset of "Say Goodbye" (as today becomes one of tomorrow's good old days) is a counterpoint to the loud clash of various cultures in "Trouble." Tonio K observes: "The French hate everyone.

At this very moment I'm listening to the song "Amerika git's nid" by Zueri West, a Swiss band from Berne.
The song is very poetic and tells a different version of the story of Columbus and Amerigo Vespucci.
Zueri West have a bunch of other great songs but it probably helps to understand Swiss-German...

 Rammstein - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The band's signature song, the eponymous "Rammstein", is a commemoration of the tragedy that took place at the Ramstein Air Base.
In addition, the songs "Amerika" (German version), "Stirb nicht vor mir//Don't die before I do" and "Moskau" contain not only German verses, but also English and Russian choruses, respectively; "Te quiero puta!" is entirely in Spanish.
The song "Du hast", for example, is a play on German marriage vows ("Willst du, bis der Tod euch scheidet, treu ihr sein für alle Tage?" - "Will you, until death separates you, be faithful to her for the rest of your days?").

 Shrine of the Unsung Musicians
There are great songs on the first album, with those sly classic Tonio K. touches, eg the rhythm track slowly turning into the sound of a washing machine as american love affair develops.
Then there are a few songs that make you think a bit, willie and the pigman and the ballad of the night the clocks all quit (and the government failed), for instance.
Ding Dong is of course the song the Munchkins sing upon the death of the Wicked Witch of the East.

 MK Magazine News: RAMMSTEIN: 'Amerika' Video To Be Shown On 'Headbanger's Ball'
The album's first domestic single, the bilingual "Amerika", will go into rotation on MTV2's "Headbanger's Ball" Oct. 2, while import single "Mein Teil" has already shown up on the "Resident Evil: Apocalypse" soundtrack as well as on Fuse's "Uranium".
By way of contrast, "Reise, Reise"'s first U.S. single "Amerika" showcases a much lighter side of the RAMMSTEIN psyche, while addressing much more universal subject matter.

 Running The Voodoo Down: POP CRITICISM, ADL-STYLE
>"Their pyromaniacal stage shows and songs about mass graves, white flesh, screaming mothers and the eroticism of power have made the band members infamous, as much for their neo-fascist aesthetic as for their assiduous denials that their music has anything to do with what it very much seems to be about."
The song was ‘Amerika,’ an exercise in garden-variety European anti-Americanism.”
When, later, the band sang ‘Amerika,’ it seemed quite clear what the target of preference would be.

German rock band Rammstein SLAMS America with their anti-America song "Amerika"...
Unless the message is tongue in cheek, why praise another country in a language most won't understand, especially since another English phrase is thrown in ("This is not a love song/I don't sing my mother's tongue")?
Despite the rousing chorus, "Amerika" is generic and lacks real excitement.

The bill for the adoption process was introduced into the Senate yesterday, sponsored by Fai'ivae, who told his colleagues that it's been more than a century since "we have been singing" the United States anthem, but no official translation of the song has been adopted and sung.
The measure seeks to amend current law, ASCA 1.0305, titled "Song", which states: "The official song of the Territory of American Samoa is designated as "Amerika Samoa"."
The 'Amerika Samoa' song (the territory's national anthem) provision remains intact.
