Editing Du hast (section)

==Overview==
There are two versions of the song: the original version completely in German, and a second version partially in English (found on special editions of the ''[[Sehnsucht (Rammstein album)|Sehnsucht]]'' album). In the second version, the first chorus and the verses are in English and the last chorus is in German. The English lyrics are not a direct translation of the German; the original lyrics take advantage of a pair of German homophones: when [[Grammatical conjugation|conjugated]] in the second person singular form (i.e. "you"), the verbs ''haben'' (to have) and ''hassen'' (to hate) become respectively ''du hast'' and ''du hasst'', which sound identical. The guitar riff is similar to [[Ministry (band)|Ministry]]'s "[[Just One Fix]]".<ref>{{cite web|last=Law|first=Sam|url=https://www.kerrang.com/the-20-greatest-rammstein-songs-ranked?next|title=The 20 greatest Rammstein songs|website=[[Kerrang!]]|date=13 August 2021|access-date=16 April 2022}}</ref><ref>{{cite web|last=Chillingworth|first=Alec|url=https://www.loudersound.com/features/the-story-behind-the-song-rammsteins-du-hast|title=Rammstein - Du Hast: The story behind the song|website=[[Louder Sound]]|date=4 September 2020|access-date=16 April 2022}}</ref> The music was written by keyboardist [[Christian Lorenz|Flake]] and guitarist [[Richard Kruspe]].
