Reise, Reise tracklist | ||
Los is the fifth song on the album Reise, Reise by Rammstein.
Background
- Similar to Du hast and Haifisch, the band plays with the word "los". In this case, it can be translated to "go" or "[some word]-less".
- Besides the acoustic album version, the band also recorded a rock version of the song. It was supposed to be released on a single, but this never happened. The band played the outro of the song as the rock version during concerts. It was released in 2015 on XXI.
- The harmonica solo was done by Till.
- This song has existed since the recording sessions for Mutter. During the recording sessions in Malaga in 2003, producer Jacob Hellner arranged recording the song again which the band didn't want to, eventually - upon Richard's idea, the band played the song unplugged and everyone liked it.
