DID I CHOSE TO MAKE ALL THESE COMMENTS BECAUSE I VIEW METALLICA AS AN ALLY IN OPINION?
NO, IT WAS JUST QUITE UNPLANNED, AND UN-INFLUENCED, EXCEPT BY CIRCUMSTANCES THAT FORCED ME TO THINK ABOUT THE PRESENT AND CURRENT 'SOCIAL' SYSTEM WE ALL LIVE UNDER
AS I SAID BEFORE, I GREW UP IN EUROPE, SO MY ATTITUDES TOWARDS LIFE AND TOWARDS OTHER HUMAN BEINGS ARE NOT CONSIDERED 'NORMAL' BY REGULAR AMERICANS
BUT THEN WE KNOW QUITE WELL THERE IS NO SUCH ANIMAL AS A 'REGULAR' AMERICAN, ALL OF US IMMIGRANTS TURN INTO 'REGULAR' AMERICANS, BECAUSE, AS QUIET AS IT'S KEPT, WE'RE ALL WANNABES, TURNED INTO THE REAL THING
JUST LOOK AT THIS, IF YOU DOUBT IT
Rammstein-Amerika
AND IT IS TRUE, A LOT OF US EUROPEANS ARE JUST LIKE THOSE MODELS IN THE VIDEO, AND 'NON-MODELS' TOO
BUT REALLY, WE ARE TRYING TO LIVE THAT IMAGE DOWN, OK?
Rammstein ("Das Model") - Domino
THE LONGER WE LIVE IN AMERICA, THE MORE COMFORTABLE WE SEEM TO GET, THE LESS COMPASSIONATE TO THE FATE OF OTHERS NOT SO LUCKY
SO WE, AS IMMIGRANTS JUST BECOME BRAND-NEW AMERICANS, WHO FIND ALL SORTS OF INJUSTICE, UNEQUAL OPPORTUNITY, RACISM, AND A LIFESTYLE WE CONSIDER UNTENABLE, TEND TO BITCH THE LOUDEST ABOUT HUMAN-RIGHTS INFRACTIONS AND ALL THAT
BUT SOMEONE HAS TO, DON'T YOU AGREE? EVEN IF IT IS TO HOLD ON TO YOUR SHRINKING
PACKAGE OF ANY RIGHTS, WHICH YOU REFUSE TO FIGHT FOR, HAVING FORGOTTEN PERHAPS
YOU WERE DEFINITELY IN A MORE DISADVANTAGED CATEGORY THEN THAN NOW
SO BIG DEAL, IT TAKES A LITTLE EFFORT, BUT IT'S QUITE WORTH IT, BELEIVE ME
