Song 304 (Rammstein--"Stirb Nicht Vor Mir (Don’t Die Before I Do)"

This is one of the more interesting and different Rammstein songs. It is a duet sung in German and English. Till sings his part in German and Sharleen Spiteri singing the English part; also Bobo, who has provided vocals in previous Rammstein songs, did some backing vocals on this song as well.
The mixing of German and English really makes for an excellent contrasting effect that makes it standout quite a bit. In my opinion Till puts forth one of his best vocal performances in this one. I have not fully been able to figure out what the song is about other than two lonely individuals wanting be together but something separates them; either by time or perhaps one is a ghost or something, but I am not too sure.

Here is the studio version on YouTube.
