Ohne Dich

"Ohne Dich" is the third released single from Rammstein's fourth studio album titled Reise Reise. The song is often seen to express grief and morning about the loss of a loved person. It was released on 22 November 2004 in Germany, Switzerland and Austria. Other countries' releases followed up from that date.

This song follows one of the band's less frequent styles: a slow, even romantic ballad. It can be compared to the song Nebel in Mutter. Another slightly less similar, but still slow and melodic song that has been vastly acclaimed is Seemann.

Its central chorus motto is:

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Ohne dich kann ich nicht sein, ohne dich...

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Mit dir bin ich auch allein, ohne dich...

Translated:

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

Without you, I cannot be, without you...

~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~ ~

With you, I am also alone, without you...

This single includes in its 6th track the so-called beta version of what should have been part of Mutter. Indeed, Ohne Dich was planned for Mutter, but then dismissed. Both versions, the current and the beta version, are very similar. Much of the instrumentation is the same for both versions, and Lindemann's voice is softer in the current version.
