This song was written in response to the many claims that Rammstein are Nazis that badly influenced various school shootings. The song’s chorus shows that the band’s political views are on the left (2 3 4). The song also has a double meaning. The line “Links 2 3 4″³ also means that their hearts beat on the left.
Links zwo, drei, vier (Left 2 (both zwo and zwei mean 2 in German but due to their similar sounds zwo is used here) 3 4)is also a German army chant.

10:15 pm on February 9th, 2008I’m not so sure these guys intended this song to state what end of the political spectrum they are on.
For me it simply shows the frustration with any group pressuring/programming you to believe or act in a manner completely opposite of what is inherently logical. -

11:42 am on November 29th, 2009Sorry, this song is not really their declaration of being leftists, but another way to f@#$ with people’s minds. Rammstein is thankfully apolitical and Til is a brilliant lyricist.

12:54 am on December 25th, 2009My interpretation of the message is as follows:
In short: “People want me (my heart) to be at the right side (of the political spectrum) but when I look down it’s on the left.”I guess that IS a rather clear statement.
At first I wasn’t sure but I can’t think of alternative ways to interpret the lines “dann schlägt es in der linken Brust, der Neider hat es schlecht gewusst” (which I think mean as much as: “then it beats in the left side of my chest, the person claiming the opposite was (is) wrong.”)
My main language is Dutch, not English or German so I could well be way off in both interpretation and explanation :p
On the other hand all the questions about what hearts should do or be able to do confuse me a little, now I guess they represent either the thought process leading to the “conclusion” contained in the lines mentioned above or some form of statement meaning the writer doesn’t have or want to have an opinion.

8:14 am on January 19th, 2010Imagine if you and your band were vehemently accused of being racist, and in response, you and your bandmates went on stage and performed an old-school 1920s black-face minstrel show. BUT… the entire show was a tribute to Black freedom movements, Dr. King, Rosa Parks, things of that sort.
This is sort of like what Rammstein did with this song. On the surface, they loudly appear to be extremist right-wing warmongers, BUT if you pay attention to what they’re actually saying… it’s the exact opposite.

11:29 pm on April 6th, 2010My favorite song! (I think it will be forever)
This song has a special meaning for me. Especially this part: “…der Neider hat es schlecht gewußt…”

1:24 am on May 28th, 2010This song I love for moral reasons. Truth is anti-german nazi peeps (those who believe all german are nazis) this song is anti-nazis. My heart beats on the left two three our means “we chose to be on the left side” and the left side is the side where the peaceful germans were, and on the right were the nazis or whatnot.
At first though, this song scared me ’cause I’m only fifteen and I didn’t even know what it meant.

4:18 pm on August 26th, 2010Personally, I feel this song is about stating the obvious in a way… Like, “you speak to me about metaphors… but I’m telling you the facts”… Like, “You ask if a heart can sing… you should know it can’t truly sing, beyond a metaphor… You act like you want my heart to be on the right side of the political spectrum, but you should know that my heart is really in the left side of my chest… my thoughts on politics doesn’t change where my heart is… what you believe me to be doesn’t effect who I truly am, and that is a fact”.
