emmagrant01Do those new Volkswagen commercials remind anyone else of a Rammstein video? Or Mike Myers's SNL skits?

Date: 2006-10-01 08:29 pm (UTC)Well. Heh. I'm German, but early in life I've gone through the "Sprockets"-inoculation. :D Too pink-and-white for Rammstein, methinks. But if you've got a clip full of homeless people, oiled bodies Riefenstahl style, or sailors on a Battleship Potemkin thinggie? That'd be Rammstein alright.
By far the most hysterical 'Germanisms' clip though? Blixa Bargeld liest Hornbach (http://www.hornbach.de/home/de/html/index.phtml?url=http://www.hornbach.de/download/de/html/cont_download_blixa_bargeld.phtml). (That's the singer of Einstürzende Neubauten, declamating the special offers of a German "Home Depot" store...) Enjoy!
