Lindemann, “Golden Shower” | Midnight Heat

In the 2^nd edition of Midnight Heat (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind “Golden Shower” by Lindemann. 

“Let it rain, don’t be blunt /… Let it rain from your pretty cu–” – Whoa, Nelly! Ah, bring on Midnight Heat ! Wait – it is not usually hot at midnight! Well, it is steaming hot at midnight when it comes to this naughty, innuendo and sex-laden column featuring songs intended for nighttime. Yeah, we are talking about that after dark, bedroom boom $hi†, ya dig? These unapologetic records often raises both eyebrows and temperature alike. Woo! In the 2^nd edition of Midnight Heat (2023), we explore the naughty, sexy vibes behind, “Golden Shower” by Lindemann.

“Please stand up and spread your legs / I lay me down, look up, it shakes.” Wow – just wow. Definitely NSFW! Lindemann – vocalist Till Lindemann of Rammstein and multi-instrumentalist Peter Tägtgren of Hypocrisy and PAIN – is unapologetic to the n^th degree on “Golden Shower” from their 2015 album, Skills in Pills. Obviously, when a song is named golden shower, it references a sex act involving urine.  Of course, Lindemann relays the experience through song.  It is on brand to be honest.  Remember, Rammstein is known to be controversial and outlandish – “Bück dich” and “Mein Teil” come to mind. He continues singing, unapologetically in the first verse, “Let me eat your shame / Let me sip champagne / Let cry your pinky flower / Give me, give me golden shower.” Da-yum!

Lindemann’s lyrics keep it X-rated with several references to her C U Next Tuesday… yikes! Of course, in the second verse, he asserts, “Please stand up, pink hairy sky,” as well as “Be my human Eiffel tower.” Yeah – use your imagination.  Besides the wild lyrics, Peter Tägtgren composes the music, as well as produces, which gives this unrefined, Midnight Heat record some class – well – maybe that’s not quite the right characterization. “Make it wet, let it jet / Cu—” Woo!
