5.0 out of 5 stars Stirb Nicht Vor Mir, December 25, 2006

This review is from: Messer. (German Edition) (Hardcover)

This book is not something to just throw to the side of your bed. Till's poems let you into the "real" Till, rather than the butcher or the flamethrower on stage. Darkness is contrasted with the light. Sadness vs. happiness, suicide -he speaks about everything dark and everything that is a flowing, beautiful manner in this world.
I love Rammstein and I've loved Till since I first heard the infamous "Du Hast" in 1997. If you can understand a bit of slang northern German, you'll get a very real perspective of the man, not the showman. This book is worth getting for anyone who is a true fan of Till Lindemann.

5.0 out of 5 stars A new insight into the soul of Till, June 16, 2006

This review is from: Messer. (German Edition) (Hardcover)

We have all read the interviews-- Till has commented that he is not a happy and light person. After reading his poems, you have a better understanding of his self-image, which has led him to write so many dark lyrics. My German is not very good -- admittedly, I have to rely on a translation site, but it is enough right now to pick up the gist of his poems. As my German improves, I will be able to catch more of the nuances. This book greatly increased my respect for Till as an artist.

5.0 out of 5 stars till has many talents, October 6, 2004

This review is from: Messer. (German Edition) (Hardcover)

If you love poetry but still love RAMMSTEIN you need this book! Till goes all out with his singing and writing skills. But who would have expected him to come out with a poetry book. I know I never saw it coming. But anyway this is the first poetry book by Mr. Till Lindemann and hopefully not his last. rock away Till!

signed a huge RAMMSTEIN fan from New Hampshire.
