1)-Who created this message?
It was created by depeche mode on 1986 it was released in europe only. Then rammstein recorded a
a version on 1998. its the only song they have interely in english
2)-What creative techniques are used to atract my attencion?
Firstly the entire video is made in black and white wich gives and old effect and the tune of the song helps
to relax and pay more atencion to the lyrics
3)-How might different people understand this message differently?
The song itself its very easy to understand its about leaving aside the citys and go back to a more natural
state where everything belongs to everyone where there is no contamination and no manipulation from the
media or the authoritys . even so some people may belive its just a love song if they focus only at the
invitacion to strippe yourself from clothes or the kiss, but it will means a very plain mind
4)-What values, lifestyles, and points of view are represented in or ommited from, this message?
the message its very edgy because stripped means to be naked or to have strips painted on something
the lyric isn´t very exuberant but its helps to send the message to have a more simple, away from citys,
and the most important a happy and plentifull life
5)- why is this message being sent?
it sent to relax, make the people think about the way they live surrounded by noise and pollution and to
make them change a little
Not good to misspell the title: stripped (not striped, which would actually correspond to a later definition, "to have strips painted on something", provided by you).
ReplyDeleteCome on! You couldn't miss the Leni Riefenstahl's Triumph des Willens references of the video (google her, maybe it will change your vision of the version).
Your vision of the song as a return to nature call... well, "let me see you stripped" is quite clear. Maybe a political vision of the song is more defensible.
I don't think I have ever heard such a thing as a relaxing Rammstein song.
