Liebe ist für alle da tracklist | |
Wiener Blut is the seventh song on the album Liebe ist für alle da by Rammstein.
Background
- The song is about Josef Fritzl, who hid his daughter in a cellar and raped her repeatedly, causing her to get pregnant with her own siblings, until the case emerged in April 2008.
- Some of the lyrics first appeared in the demo song Augen zu, which is musically a demo of Liebe ist für alle da, but lyrically is about the Fritzl case as well.
- The working titles of this song were Seid bereit[1] and Fritzl[2].
- The title Seid bereit originates from an earlier unreleased song, which was created around the time the band was recording the album Mutter. According to some members of the official fanclub, some lyrical ideas and the main guitar riff were taken from that song. After the Fritzl case, new lyrics were written and the song was released in 2009.
