100 subscribers! Holy cow, thank you so much!
Soon, 200. Proudly be the 176. :D
three days later it is already more than tripled.
Honestly, you missed the funniest part of the video, when the crowd starts singing "Swedish Pagans" and Joakim can't help but laugh
3220 as of now, including me. Love your style. Greetings from Germany
Är du svensk???
The reason why the english version of this song is different is because Sabaton made it that way. En Livstid I Krig is about a singular Swedish soldiers perception of the 30-years-war, while A Life Time Of War is about the entire war as a whole.
I usually explain it by saying the Swedish version tells the story from a Swedish soldier's view and the English is more of an outsider's view.
@@Templarofsteel88 you could say the english version is like a bird's eye view on the war itself if that makes sense at all.
@@zephyrushildebrand9938 that would be one way of phrasing it.
It’s amazing to see a reaction to this song from someone who speaks and understands the native tongue this was written. This was an absolutely brilliant video!
At the final show of the American tour in Denver, Colorado, they played this in Swedish (everyone pretty much knew the lyrics) but they also played Gott Mit Uns and The Lion From the North. Both in Swedish. Unfortunately, we didn't do so great on those songs in Swedish. We sang the English versions while Joakim sang to us in Swedish. He was disappointed in us. Very much, "Well, you are Americans after all." Despite our fumbling of those two, it was still a wonderful concert. We even got them to play Swedish Pagans twice aling with Carolus Rex. So in our defense it was A LOT of "Yay Sweden 🇸🇪!' for an American concert.
expecting from whole crowd to sing songs in a language they know nothing about or never learned is just dumb :)
@@Normadus Last time I went to a Sabaton concert, they asked if we wanted to hear Got Min Uns in English or Swedish. The crowd overwhelmingly said Swedish. This was in Houston, TX. Joakim was like, "Well, you asked for it, but I'm paying attention to see if you fuckers actually know the lyrics."
@@Normadus Learn to take a joke?
At wacken they once re-texted "Gott mit uns" to "noch ein bier"
@@Happymali10 Good German influence
I agree with you with the Swedish vs English lyrics. I don't speak Swedish, but I love this song and learned it by heart, in Swedish, so if it came to that I could have joined my voice with the crowd also. I also looked up the meaning of each word and it is indeed much more meaningful in its original language.
Thank you for your effort.
Yes, the lyrics packs a different punch in the original.
(An English equivalent would be the different feeling tied the pairs of words like home/mansion, folk/people and so on)
I was lucky enough to see Sabaton live in Helsinki, November 2019 just before the pandemic. I can definitely recommend seeing them live! Greetings from Finland!
Such a crowd interaction always get me as well.
Being a concert photographer I can shoot sometimes from on stage as well: And experiencing views like here live is so breathtaking, although I am just there to take photos for the band.
But being up there and performing your own song and getting such a response must be a feeling beyond everything else.
If you wanna see another example of the most breathtaking crowd interaction:
Blind Guardian (German Speed Metal band) with "The Bards Song & Valhalla" live at Wacken festival in 2016.
If you pass Wacken ground nowadays and listen carefully, you can still hear them singing :-)
I was at this show (sitting somewhere in the middle of the platform to the left from this view of the stage) Just before this clip stated Joakim asked everyone to hold up their cellphones since no one carries around a lighter anymore. Needless to say, this was one hell of a show, sadly this was just before covid broke out and started canceling shows (had for once gotten tickets from 5 shows and 1 festival that year and this was the only one I got to attend)
Sadly it looks like this year might turn out just as crappy since they have sadly had to cancel their EU tour for next year
Fun fact, they actually have 2 different tanks that they use as a drum riser for their shows
Lucky you,here in Thailand only shit coming.
A woman i forget the name on.
Beautifull but white crash with nice body.
We need hardrock för faan!👍❤🇸🇪
My sons first consert was Sabaton in Stockholm. I got him a hoodie and he still use it every day 😊 there musik got him to feel better in his depression and when I tols then in a email they sent him a card ❤
I do not know one word of Swedish but I always prefer the songs Sabaton wrote in their native to be sung that way. It just sounds so natural to me, every viewing is as enjoyable as the first. Want to view another great song from this 'Great Tour' check out Lejonet Från Norden played with their guests most of the Finnish band Apocalyptica in Stockholm.
Oh, yes, I forgot about this
Learnt more Swedish from Sabaton then I had ever in my life.....I can sing this song ☺️
Sabaton var en av grunden för att lära mig svenska.
You sir, are such a joy to watch! I actually didn't notice the accent at all until I started to properly stalk for it
Aonther song I can very much recommend would be "The Last Stand" especially since it is approaching the 500th aniversary of the event the song is about. When you are listening to it, just imagine that song performed in St Peter's Basilica upon the 500-year-rememberance-ceremony, supplemented by the organ there...
Damn man... I'm not from Sweden. I'm from a latin speaking country but this song makes me want to fight.for Sweden. Shit..It's just that good man
All the best bands seem to come from Scandinavia recently. I discovered Volbeat in 2007, and Sabaton in 2015 (of course Nightwish has always been on the radar) I'm English btw but used to live in Tallinn.
Nightwish is not Scandinavian. They are from Finland
I listen to a lot of reactions. Especially Sabaton reactions. And you, sir, are an absolute delight.
Please, keep up the content - and I couldn't agree more, the Swedish version of this song is head and shoulders above the English one!
Please consider reacting to Carolus Rex - it's my favorite track off the titular album, and never fails to get me HYPED FOR ABSOLUTE MONARCHY.
Cheers from Missouri, and keep being awesome!
I've been learning Norwegian for 4 months but it's similar enough that I can read the lyrics in swedish with a little translation. One day I want to scream these lyrics back at sabaton
A wonderful rendition of the song... the camera work from behind really makes you feel a part of it. It is just that Joakim need not have bothered - the crowd would have sung the whole by themselves, one mighty chorus. An anthem allright!
If you care to try out another recording where the crowd takes over and enhances the story-telling feel, you could, time permitting, try BLIND GUARDIAN "The Bard's Song - In the Forest" / "Valhalla" Live. Some funny guys say, the crowd is still chanting. Btw, that is my 2nd most adored band, so heartily recommended. The bards.
When I first listened to Sabaton I haven´t known they´re from Sweden but during listening and researching I discovered this.
After I discovered their album Carolus Rex in English but also in Swedish I was blown away.
On top of this was my personal vacation in Sweden 2019 and a live concert of Sabatob in January 2020 in Berlin/Germany just before the first Covid lockdowns occured.
Once the pandemic is over and travelling is save again I will be back in Sweden.
Love Sabaton and love this song. This song make me want to learn swedish every time I listen. It might be difficult, though, I’m spanish. Great reaction! Keep on reacting to Sabaton and Nightwish! New subscriber here.
Swedish is … think German w less grammar, or English with less loanwords from French.
The carolus rex album is the first I heard from sabaton and what got me into them, in English that is. But when I heard the Swedish versions of all the songs....I’m second generation Swedish American so I’m not fluent by any means but I know enough for them to just hit different
I love that one. I really love it. I don’t speak Swedish. I can understand a little, if it’s spoken slowly, well, I have read the lyrics and translation enough to understand them in every of there Swedish songs. My biggest flex. is….I understand written Swedish quite well, cuz many words are close to the German ones and the rest is clear from the context.
and always remember. If you feel like singing, do it!
Beautiful lyrics I'm Danish so i understand the Swedish, only found this band cause of Nightwish lead singer is married to the drummer so searched for them.
Jag har heller aldrig varit på en Sabaton konsert men hoppas på att se dom live så snart som möjligt. Ses där kanske.
Kör hårt 🤘
This was the last live event I went to before the pandemic, but man what an atmosphere we had!
One of the best I've ever experienced, could really feel the energy in the middle.
the stage was even more epic than just the tank. you cant rly see it from this view but there where sand bags and barbed wires in front of the stage and they had build up bunkers on the sides. the entire stage was made to look like scene from ww1. as someone who was not at this specific show but the one that was in stockholm right after i can tell you that if you ever get the chance you need to go see them live. they are by far the best live band ive seen. and as you probably can tell, hearing this song played in front of a swedish audience just hits differently.
i can only imagine how much it felt to the band hearing the crowd singing like that, and the respect Joakim showed the fans when he bowed to them several times is just awesome
"I want to fight for my country so bad!"
Sabaton has a wild way of making you feel insanely patriotic for countries that you aren't even a citizen of. (Though you knowing Swedish kinda points to heritage there, this is my first time watching any of your videos so idk your history yet xD)
@@martinottesen1053 I´d take up arms for Norway in a heartbeat.
@@martinottesen1053 I would stand behind any nordic country in a conflict.
@@johan.ohgrenWell, two years has passed since your comment and safe to say the "chance" to take up arms for our countries hasn't exactly grown smaller. Let's see what kind of hell our eastern neighbor still drags us into. Greetings from 🇫🇮
I have to admit that the full Carolus Rex album is so much better in Swedish. Sabaton is probably the biggest reason I'm somewhat happy I had to learn Swedish (yeah you guessed it, a Finn)
This pandemic sucks ass, I had tickets for sabatons next concert in April but it has been re-scheduled to the unknown.
This is so emotional song, I think I have shed some tears everytime I have heard it live and sang along.
Första gången jag hörde En Livstid i Krig live var i Örebro, det var en liten skruttig lokal med få platser men denna låten när alla sjöng med vart helt legendarisk, men jag håller med jag hade velat vara med på den här konserten.
What a wonderful reaction video and I know the exact feelings you just showed! I have seen this video at least 500 times and I react this same way each and every time! And as a swede you get so proud and patriotic. Tack för reaktionen och känslan du framför!
There is a ton of amazing military veterans who cries reacting to this. Shame the subtitles are a little yucky but yeah this live performance is so strong emotionally.
Have you checked out their latest video "Christmas Truce"? Its a great video and song about the brief truce on the WWI Western Front at Christmas 1914. At the end it features some vocals from Floor Jansen who is married to Hannes, Sabaton's drummer. You should also check out her band Nightwish, they are generally characterized as "symphonic metal" and Sabaton fans usually like their stuff too although it is quite different.
And the next day you released your reaction to it haha nice!
Great to see another enjoying Sabaton and share his joy to world. Also congratulations for 100 subs.
Thank you! I'm having so much fun with it :)
@@simpleviking I am happy and your welcome. This will be wild ride with great highs and deep lows.
I love this song, best sabaton song made followed closely by alot of songs, this takes the cake though, i always sing the entire song when i hear it, also, if you listen just a tiny bit, the crowd never stops singing it either :)
I have seen them live 5 times on their own festival, rockstad falun now named sabaton open air, and then 4 times outside of that, and i saw them at gates of metal 2012 and they were so fresh faced and new, i remember them so clearly because they played "långa bollar på bengt"! :D
Jag var på plats och det var en magisk kväll, En livstid I krig var kvällens höjdpunkt, kolla i slutet när joakim tar sig för pannan, jag tror vi gjorde ett jävla intryck på hela bandet😉 hoppas du får chansen att se dom själv snart😊 själv har jag haft biljetter sen två år tillbaka men covid har satt stopp tyvärr. Fortsätta med dina videos dom är kanon!🤘😁
Mate i have tickets for Sabaton This Febuary in Denmark. Ive seen every single Sabaton Performance in Denmark since 2013. And its always been am absolute blast. Do yourself a favor. Tag så ud og se de dejlige svenskere !! Just go and watch them, those lovely sweedes
I was lucky enough to see them on their US tour back in 2019 before the world come to stop. Had tickets to see them with Judas Priest in 2020 but that got postponed because of corona until 2021. I took refund.
It made me wanna fight for Your county, lol, Sabaton has this thing when they make u feel patriotic for a country you're not actually part of. (Russian boi here :D)
Kinda also made me learn some lyrics. You look so cool and emotional, thanks for the vid. As Sabaton fan would appreciate MOAR SABATON reactions :)
P.S. This version seems much cooler then english one, even for some weird russian guy.
"I look around and I see my home fade away
My time at home now feels far too short
Just a youth, barely a man when duty called me
If i get to see my home again, that I do not know
Amongst friends from my village, I went out to figtht
And the world burned" - I always cry on this part....
I am teacher to and I found Sabaton through my son. And I have same very strong patriotic feeling that almost breaking the heart when hearing this song but without being nationalist or patriotic in normal life. But when hear this song I feel for al the generations lost in our old history of years and years wartime. And feel strongly for my country. This why the swedish version just digg into my heart. In english it is about anyone but in swedish it is about our forefathers. Hand that grasping my heart and make me both sing and cry
Welcome to the battalion! :). I was there, a memory for life! The Sabaton Open Air gigs are great as well.... well, all their gigs are, but its really nice with the festival area in Falun.
I love your channel keep up the great stuff
I was there😀... still gives me goosebumps.
🇸🇪🇸🇪
Tack så mycket Excellent reaction !!!
Joakim conducting a choir of thousands...
Som svensk ☺️ - Jag har aldrig sett någon reagera på det här sättet till sången, men du är dessutom den första svensken som jag sett göra en reaktion video, alla andra varit internationella, där det har varit tårar med ”Omg, this song is so emotional! What’s happening to me!? 😭”
the song describes the 30th years war from a soldiers view. every 7th male in Sweden was killed during that war, such a waste of lifes, greetings from an old Swedish Soldier, did my time in the military durung the cold war and then 20 years in the National Guard. by the way they have 2 tanks
Okay...1:24 you see the drummer? That is Hannes Van Dahl. He is married to Floor Jansen of Nightwish. They seem to be the perfect couple.
You should react to "Konungens likfärd" its one of my nr1 songs of the carolus album!
This concert was a blast, i was there in the back singing my heart out with everyone in the stadium, i teared up because it was so amazing!
Yes, Konungens Likfärd and Ruina Imperii are the 2 other favorite tracks of mine from this album.
Jag stod i den publiken och fick äran att sjunga med😍🤘🏻
Really loved your reaction. Gained another sub hehe. Hilsen från Sør-Tyskland
Sjukt kul att se dina reaktioner, Sabaton har en tendens att slå på hjärtesträngar så tårarna rinner samtidigt som man skrattar lyckligt! Seriöst, Christmas Truce behöver du se!
Tack så jättemycket!
I am writing my graduation work, I don‘t know how to call that in english, the final project you do before graduation, about the thirty years war and Swedens role in it and Sabaton, more specifically the album Carolus Rex was my inspiration, so this is just awesome to see
Bro your patriotism is beautiful, much love from England.
Sabaton Open Air, Falun, 6th of August 2022.
Sounds too good to be true! :D
@@simpleviking But it is. :D
@@angiewegenerdjmetalamazon4468 I'm holding hope, was supposed to go see them at the end of FEB in Borås, but that show got cancelled thanks to covid risks. Ill see you both in falun hopefully! ill buy you a beer ;D
I never listen to Sabaton until I was told Floor Jansen was married to the drummer. So I turned them on. They are so good now I know why my son's didn't tell me about them. After all u don't want Mom liking your bands. I just thought it was Swedish hockey players I loved.
Loved youre reaction to this
The tour is schedule!! But all shows in sweden is sold out I belive. I'm going to the show in Stockhom 28 of April. Mostly because I live there.
I was given a heart on youtube yesterday from the former Tommy! He is amazing solo! ❤❤
Great reaction, well done sir :) Greetings from Finland
Åh så bra, react på fler av Sabatons låtar du är bra på det , kör på!!
Var på Sabaton i min hemstad Skellefteå nu i maj.. helt Magiskt, hoppas du har fått fara på en spelning 2022.. 🇸🇪🇸🇪
Jag var där.. Det var en upplevelse :) bra reaktion video 🤘🏻🤘🏻
Have you been able to see them in concert yet? Make it happen while you still got the chance. It might sound morbide, but I think you know how much many of us miss Chester Bennington and that they never were able to be at a live.
This is My absolutly best consert i ever been to.
Jag älskar ditt sätt att reagera på världens bästa Band!!
Check also Uprising and 40:1 at Woodstock Poland 2012. Have a good fun 👍🙂
I've seen Sabaton live in 2019, great show!
With carolus rex, this is my favourite live video from sabaton
5:56
A few years ago the tour-truck carrying the "tank"-riser had an accident on the Autobahn, imagine being the cop who is told "a truck with band equipment" crashed and you find a tank.
That accent on "Krig" tells me one thing.... Skåning ;)
Primo Victoria, Wolf pack, the hammer has fallen
What an awesome crowd!!
if you dont know -- but Florr Jansen ( nightwish ) is married with the band leader from sabaton
Its so insane knowing that some people never knew anything other than constant war and bloodshed
Klockren nationalsång! 🇸🇪 Var i Stockholm förra året... lever på det än!!!!
Another recomandation if you like it whe the Crowd is enchanted by the Music and is singing along. Blind Guardian, a german Band ant the german Festival Wacken 2016, singing Bards Song and Valhalla, both english Songs but the Crows knows it by hearth. Absolutly moving for every Musik lover to see scenes like this, where the Crowd interacts with their loved Music and Band like this. And Sabaton is like this, everybody would learn to sing along.
What many do not know is that little Sweden at that time in the 17th century with only 1.5 million inhabitants was a warrior nation. It was all about war against Denmark, Russia. Hundreds of thousands of young men had to sacrifice their lives for the king of Sweden. We fought as the Vikings did, conquered .. killed, slaughtered ..Poland we were in conflict with many times. Poor Poles like Charles the 10th ravaged and burned. The Carolines as they were called the three kings were men. The greatest of them and most famous is Charles the 12th. He who went against great Russia and defeated Peter the Great in many battles, despite great inferiors in mantle. The Swedes' tactic was to go against the enemy ... you were not allowed to fire your weapon before you saw the white eye of the enemy. Imagine what a fucking nightmare. What toughness. Sweden was cruel at war. We held together and fought for God and the king. One third of Sweden's young men died in the wars. But without all these wars, Sweden probably would not have existed today.
Great reaction.
Welcome to the Sabaton Family!! Greetings from Germany 🤘🎸
Try get a ticket on next Sabaton Cruise, 24h(last time 48h, was 10th jubelium). I was lucky to be on it 3 years! 2500 fans and Sabaton on Cruise over Baltic sea on Silja Galaxy, 24h trip Sabaton does a 2h X 2 gigs at the evening. Also great and meet, signing stuff and takes photos 🤟🇸🇪😎
congrats on 100 subs
Tack! :D
I have cards for sabaton concert in april and i hope desparate that the Situation here in germany cools back down so it don't get canceled.
If you want to fight for your country after listening to Sabaton, you misunderstood the meaning behind it. Sabaton always brings out the tragedy of war, without fail. But I do agree with how the music makes you feel, it invokes unity and brotherhood. That's the power of metal, and Sabaton are among the greatest.
You are one step away from true awesomeness... please react to Tommy Johansson covering Green Day's Basketcase...with a surprise melody mash-up! (Tommy is Sabaton's guitarist...but he's also a power metal God on his own!)
Beautiful reaction. Vackört :)
The Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) was a series of military conflicts that took place in Central Europe, mainly in what is today Germany. It ended with a peace treaty signed in the Westphalian cities of Osnabrück and Münster on October 14, 1648, from which it was named the Westphalian Peace.
And it was about Religion, catholic vs lutheran.
awesome reaction..
React to Sabaton - Smoking Snakes. They tell the story of 3 brave Brazilian soldiers who fought bravely in WW II and refused to surrender to the German troops.
Härliga reaktioner 👍🏴☠️✌️
I was on a Sabaton concert. It was one of the best ;)
I've always wondered how it would feel to want to fight for one's country. to be brought up in a place that treated you so well, that you'd gladly give your life to protect it.
I've never felt patriotism, even tho my country has been under attack for a decade now. because it always treated me like crap, and has thrown tens of thousands like me into the meat grinder, while corruption and nepotism created billionaires off of war profiteering.
sorry, I understand this topic is a bit too heavy for a Sabaton video, and I'm glad you're enjoying their work like I do. it's just that hearing those words set off a chain reaction in my mind. but don't get me wrong, it's refreshing to see people feel patriotism towards countries that actually deserve it like Sweden.
Nordics are extremely loyal for their countries, regular citizen may not care too much about world politics.. dictators etc, but any of us aint second thinking if they would sacrifice their life for the country. :)
You fight not for the nation, or for the politicant. You fight for your family, to protect them. Later, in the military, you protect your fellow soldiers, your new family, your friends there... War and fights are not heroism or glory. Its about the survive, the hope for a better future, the hope, it will be end, if you do your duty. In that way, millions will fight "for the country" - the media, the propaganda can label it as you wish. For civilians, its necessary, to be "them" and "we", and the winning of "we" over "them" to justify the suffering. But honestly, at the end, you realise, ony "us" exist, and the enemy is also us,. So, patriotism is just propaganda, very little soldier feels it.
@@Firynn I get what you mean. if the fighting ever gets close to home, I'd gladly fight to protect my family and loved ones, that would give my life some meaning or purpose, at least.
but I don't feel the same about the country as a whole, because it never felt like it appreciated me, so why throw my life away for it.
dunno about the propaganda part, I'm almost sure others have felt patriotic on their own, hell I even used to feel it before I grew up to be such a cynic.
Now, thanks to Sabaton, I only feel patriotic towards other nations when listening to their songs.
@@sineupp Blind patriotism is never good anyway, it leads to seeing one's own country as infallible no matter what it does. In my opinion a country must earn their citizens respect and patriotism by treating them and others right. Being a patriot just because you were born somewhere is nonsense. I was born in one country, though my parents are immigrants from another. I've been asked often why I'm not patriotic towards my "home country" (the one my parents come from). That country did nothing for me and would never do anything for its citizens since, similar to you, corruption and nepotism is rampant. The country I live in now has caught me when I fell and has built me up when I was down on my luck. It cares about its people, its infrastructure and environment. Those are reasons to be patriotic.
Fighting to protect your our own borders and country is one thing. When war comes inside your borders, everyone would pretty much help to secure the country again.
Also Sweden has in their info pamphlet that they sent out with info if war breaks out: "If Sweden is attacked by another country we will never surrender. All information that the resistance will stop is false"
So yeah .. taking over Sweden means you kinda have to exterminate the ENTIRE population since politicians are not allowed to surrender
Sabaton Ghost Division next?
You MUST see Sabaton's Bismark song :)
The song also serves a higher historical meaning for Sweden due to endless wars that Sweden participate in the king who was crowned after Carl the 12, said no more wars and that is the reason why sweden became a neutral country
A lesson learned and it’s sad to see how the world has changed now when Sweden is joining NATO
Did the politicians wake up the Swedish war bear
8:25 Sabaton actually has some videos on RUclips singing the national anthem with their own style.
This will be a great journey. Welcome to the world of Sabaton 🤘🍻 Try Night Witches live from Leipzig
New sub here. 🥰 Great reaction bro.
Just a word of distinction: Sabbaton doesn't sit well with any sort of "nationalistic" vibe. They basically desribe history from different viewpoints. Which, when picked out of context, makes then very easy targets for critical comments(swedish nationalismn, nazi heroismn etc.) but is always proven wrong when seeing the whole picture - basically they have a song for all the POVs.
