Deutschland befindet sich im Fieber: Seit geraumer Zeit ist die Rammstein-Mania ausgebrochen. Das Resultat: Das 1995 veröffentlichte Debüt-Album "Herzeleid" erreichte Ende Mai Goldstatus und erstmals die TOP 10 der Verkaufscharts.
"Engel", die erste Singleauskopplung aus dem kommenden Album "Sehnsucht" hielt sich wochenlang auf Platz 3!!! der Single-Charts, wurde ebenfalls Ende Mai vergoldet und darf schon jetzt als Mellenstein fuer dieses musikalische Genre angesehen werden.
Seit Vo. des "Engel" sind knapp drei Monate vergangen und Rammstein begehrter denn je. Mit "Du hast" veröffentlichen Rammstein als zweite Single einen excellenten Tanzmetall-Gassenhauer: härter, tanzbarer als der "Engel" und schön böse im Rammstein-Sinne. Sangen Rammstein auf "Herzeleid" noch "Hei-, Hei-, Heirate mich", scheint dieses Kapitel für die sechs Berliner nun endgültig ad acta gelegt zu sein.
Denn auf die Frage "Willst Du bis der Tod uns scheidet, Treue sein für alle Tage?", ertönt ein resolutes "Nein!" - "Du hast" ist die Anti-Hochzeithymne, auf die manche Menschen schon lange gewartet haben, wobei man Rammsteins Skepsis gegenueber Treueschwüren sicher auch auf andere Lebenssituationen übertragen kann und soll.
Kurzum. "Du hast" ist ein excellenter Nachfolge-Hit und bietet Fans über den Titeltrack hinaus noch einen weiteren Album-Track und zewi exklusive Remixe von Jacob Hellner und Clawfinger, sicher kein enfaches Airplaytheme - dafür aber umso aufregender...

Information
Promotion
The German promotional CD came with a promotional sheet, which had the following text on it:
Germany is in a fever: For quite some time now, Rammstein-Mania has broken out. The result: The debut album "Herzeleid", released in 1995, reached gold status at the end of May and the TOP 10 of the sales charts for the first time.
"Engel", the first single release from the upcoming album "Sehnsucht" held for weeks at No. 3!!! of the single charts, was also gilded at the end of May and may already be considered a Mellenstein for this musical genre.
Since Vo. of the "Angel" almost three months have passed and Rammstein more sought after than ever. With "Du hast", Rammstein release an excellent dance metal smash hit as their second single: harder, more danceable than "Engel" and beautifully evil in the Rammstein sense. While Rammstein still sang "Hei-, Hei-, Heirate mich" on "Herzeleid", this chapter seems to be finally shelved for the six Berliners.
Because to the question "Will you be faithful until death do us part?", a resolute "No!" resounds. - "Du hast" is the anti-wedding anthem that some people have been waiting for a long time, although Rammstein's skepticism about vows of fidelity can and should certainly be applied to other life situations.
In short, "Du hast" is an excellent follow-up hit and offers fans beyond the title track one more album track and two exclusive remixes by Jacob Hellner and Clawfinger, certainly not a simple airplay theme - but all the more exciting for it...

Additionally a Spanish promotional CD also had a promotional sheet with it:
El cd single "Du hast" es el nuevo y primer tema promocional de la banda alemana RAMMSTEIN promotora y mejor exponente del metal Industrial.
El álbum del cual se desprende este nuevo tema es "Sehnsucht".
La letra contiene palabras en un juego de ambigüedades léxicas con los votos de matrimonio alemanes.
The cd single "Du hast" is the new and first promotional track of the German band RAMMSTEIN, promoter and best exponent of Industrial metal.
The album from which this new track is taken is "Sehnsucht".
The lyrics contain words in a play of lexical ambiguities with German marriage vows.
Misprint
