"Bück dich" (German: [ˈbʏk ˌdɪç], lit. 'Bend Down' or 'Bend Over') is a song by the Neue Deutsche Härte band Rammstein that first appeared on their second studio album, Sehnsucht, and as one of the B-sides to the CD version of "Du hast".

Live performance and controversy

When performing it live, vocalist Till Lindemann has simulated anal sex with keyboardist Christian Lorenz using a water-squirting dildo.[1]

Due to the controversial nature of the act, Lindemann and Lorenz were both arrested after a concert held on June 5, 1999 in Worcester, Massachusetts.[2][3] They were each fined $200 and spent the night in jail. Consequently, three versions of Rammstein's Live aus Berlin were released - one VHS including "Bück dich", another VHS and DVD without it and the uncensored DVD including the song.[4] Afterwards, they stopped playing the song live and did not have another tour in the US for 10 years.[1]

Comeback

The song made a comeback in the Made in Germany 1995–2011 tour. It was also performed in Worcester again, without any incidents.[1] Footage of the original concert was also rereleased in the 2024 edition of concert DVD Live aus Berlin after previously being censored.[5][6]
