He called in Artillery on advancing tanks and soldiers. He kept giving corrections. The Artillery asked "how close are they" Audie said "Hold the phone I'll let you talk to them...
If you aren't willing to fire on your position. You aren't willing to win.
Nothing flippant. Sometimes you have to eat shell fire.
@@brahmpayton334 Harsh but accurate even from before gunpowder. If you weren't willing to be all in, even perhaps in the danger zone, you weren't committed enough to win in most cases.
The phrase "Crosses grow on Anzio, where no soldier sleeps and where hell is six feet deep" is from a poem written by Audie Murphy himself in which he describes the horrors of the battle of Anzio, you should check it out, it's really beautiful and deep
This is easily one of their most popular songs. They often close out concerts with this song bc it has such a massive effect and is so recognizable with that whistle.
Audie's son gave Sabaton one of the posters for the movie "To Hell and Back" as a gift for honoring his father with something upbeat and metal rather than a country ballad (which is what the majority of songs about Audie are in the style of.)
not dissing this song in any way but I think it is more popular in America than in any other part of the world.
@@Templarofsteel88 well makes sense because he is an American lol
@@Templarofsteel88 Lol yeah well its about an american as someone pointed out. Its no different than if you go watch Polish crowds whenever they start hitting Uprising or 40:1 live. Of course you get even more hyped and into it its about your ancestry, your nation's history, your nation's heroics.
@@Templarofsteel88 Most of Sabaton's songs are more popular in the states than anywhere else in the world. There are maybe a few exceptions and most of them are Polish lol.
That said, there is something special about being an underdog and doing way more than you have any business doing in the fight, like 40:1/resist and bite.
In Holtzwier, France, the citizens of this town that the Allies liberated have built a modest, but moving and informative memorial to honor Audie, and also the troops that fought and died. They have a 2 dimensional metal sculpture of Audie on the tank, and a photo of Audie with his medals. The first time I heard this song on RUclips, they were singing at a huge festival, and all the Europeans knew the words to the song. So many people in the US don't even know who Audie is or what he did.
Two fun facts about Audie Murphy.
Look up a picture of the man. You’d expect Steve Rogers. You’d have all the valor of Captain America in a MUCH tinier package.
There’s a reason it even made it into the song.
Audie told them to tone down the REAL LIFE events of the movie because he thought no one would believe them.
I had a pic of him on my other screen during the reaction. I agree!
Very much a case of "size/strength isn't everything". :)
Audie Murphy was a very big Western movie star and many of his costars were afraid of him because he would mock their fire fights, fist fights, knife fights, etc.
He also carried a pistol with him at all times with the bullet he was quoted, “saving it for the demons that may come”
He was a very respected soldier by veterans and many in the military because he had asthma, lied about his age, and all he wanted to do was fight because there were many dying and he wanted to serve his nation.
He was a real captain america
He also had malaria for a good portion of his tour. He apparently got a lot of lucrative cigarette ad offers, but refused to do them because he didn’t want to set a bad example for children. Captain America without ever needing the super serum.
@@mileshill7196 Yes, he also turned down doing ads for alcohol for the same reason. As Dave notes, Audie is still inspiring people. But he never really got over the war experiences.
Fun Fact: Sabaton's tank on stage is called Audie
Then what’s the other tanks name
@@Hockey-gn2tj Murphy
@@greaper1976 oh lol
What a legend Audie was. First, battling through North-Africa and Europe. Then coming home to battle his demons he got from ww2, winning that fight aswell and making most of his life.
Also, I love the line "Crosses grow on Anzio". Battle of Anzio cost around 10 000 KIA for Allies and Germans combined. Total casulties were over 60 000 combined.
Awesome reaction!
Also a line directly from Audi's own poem about his personal view of the battlefield
One of my favorite Audie Murphy stories. His squad was falling back when a german platoon attacked his regiment. Audie, climbed into the command turret of a burning m4 tank and fired the machine gun holding off the platoon by himself while his squad escaped. He won the CMH for that action. He was addicted to morphine that he was prescribed for the pain of all the war wounds he received.
Yep. He was later asked after the war why he had seized .50 cal and taken on an entire company of German infantry, he replied, "They were killing my friends." What a fucking legend.
The melody to the song incorporates a very old timey Western film soundtrack vibe, playing tribute to Audie’s movie career. Obviously the big stand out note about his acting was that he played himself, but the majority of his filmography was Westerns, hence the melody choice.
Audie Murphy was by far more bad ass than any of us could ever dream of being. 3 Purple Hearts, the Medal of Honor, Distinguished Service Cross just to name a few of the medals he earned in the war. That's not including the two medals awarded to him by the French and another from the Belgians. Then to come back and go into war with his own demons, and win that war too...what a true American bad ass.
No shield. No red, white, and blue suit. No "super soldier serum." Didn't matter. Audie Murphy was the REAL Captain America!
just some huge balls and a will power bigger than them, not just to go and fight, to treat his ptsd and cure it *BY HIMSELF* in a week because he wanted to
I would also like to add that Audie Murphy also lied about his age to get into the army. That is just crazy to me, he did all of that and he wasn't supposed to be there.
Audie was known for his parts in old western films... that's partly why there's a western-themed melody in, I am guessing.
Now that I have had time to actually watch this: I am super glad that you took away the "be humble" message because this is actually how I took it when I listened the first time
I live in the same area Audie Murphey was born in. The theater here even has a section dedicated to him. Several things in town are named in his honor too.
He lied about his age to get into the military at 17 and earned every medal in the military (not just ours by the way) by his early twenties. Imagine 17-22 year olds today doing this.
The title of the song comes from a movie Audie starred in himself. Clips of this movie are in Sabaton’s music video. Also many of the lyrics are taken from poetry that Audie wrote when he came back.
The melody is from the good the bad and the ugly. Audie starred in a lot of spaghetti westerns too.
People always say imagine people these days going through that they said the same thing after WW1 people will always step up in every generation. This generation is no softer than any in the past 40 years more intelligent and nuanced sure and the US army at least preys on the poor and underprivileged offering them a future in return for service something you should get without having to join the military.
This is actually my fav song from sabaton
You should watch the movie. At one point his unit is in danger of being overrun by a company of infantry and tanks. He calls in artillery on his position. The artillery asks him, "How close are they?" "Hold on, I'll let you talk to them yourself!!"
Whenever i hear the intro, it reminds me of the old Clint Eastwood "spaghetti westerns"
One of my favorite songs of theirs
deff should re-watch this song with the official music video as it's really good and shows Audie playing himself in his movie To Hell and Back" deff should watch the History eps. also the Murphy Family was very happy with this song.
I'm amazed how good you are in interpreting the song! Thanks!
Just to complete the picture the band show us it is reallllly worth to see the Official MUSIC Video!
Sabaton just released a lyric video for the Song The Ballad of Bull which I think is a very underated song would to to see you react to it. Keep making great videos Dave! 👍
With the end of the war you endured, the troubles continue and grow.
The way I heard it put best for military types is that those who deploy never really come back.
If you like solos that spark emotions, check out The Final Solution. The solos in that song WEEP.......
Hell yes my 2nd favorite sabaton song
Yeah, I'd never heard about the addiction story...wow whole new level amazement.
Sabaton also made a music video to the song, which I highly recommend checking out.
Also, I'd like to see more Dan Bull reactions from you in the future. Maybe his raps for Super Meat Boy, The Last Guardian, and Shadow of the Colossus.
Depression is hell for me! War is a whole different realm!
Great video, I love this song myself now you need to do cliffs of Gallipoli.
I should chose the OG videoclip, where you have deeper represent of PTSD, but ok. I love this song no matter what! :)
Sabaton included the spaghetti western themed music as a homage to his movie career.
Your comment on the starting melody i didnt see it that way. It does also have like a wild west vibe to it.
The only man badass enough to play Audie Murphy in To Hell and Back, was Audie Freaking Murphy. He got into an argument with a Producer on the set of a movie one time. Murphy just GLARED at him. The Producer later said "That was when I realized that I was arguing with a man who killed more Germans in Combat than I've killed bugs on the freeway." The Producer quit the next day! Fun Fact, Murphy stood 5'5" tall in combat boots!
Funny, scary story about Audie! During some films, the director might ask Audie to look deadly. But, his deadly look was so scary that the director decided that Audie would scare the audience. So, they always toned it down. One of his most poignant moment is in the lyric video, when his friend dies in battle, and for a moment Audie looks somber and lost; then starts fighting again.
Another very moving story that makes you very, very thoughtful. Like all Sabaton songs. War is a terrible beast...
You have to check out majestica - above the sky! It's the leading guitarist of Sabaton, Tommy Johansens band. The song is one of the best current power metal songs. Not only is there guitar solo but a drum solo and a base solo as well during the instrumental break! Epic!
audie played in alot of westerns...thats the melody!
Always like to watch your videos man, you are so charismatic and cool! Keep doing what you doing!
I think the music is meant to reflect Irish music. "Murphy" is an Irish name. His actual story is amazing, and the things he did.
It’s based on f the western theme of the movies he had acted in as a nod to his career as an actor
I love your channel keep up the great stuff
The melody makes me visualize something like the Gunslingers in the Dark Tower series riding into battle
The whistle at the beginning and at the end is referencing spaghetti westerns because Lt Murphy was from Texas
Hey man can you listen to the ballad of the bull
Fun fact, Murphys son wrote to Sabaton thanking them for not making "another country somg about my father"
everytime i hear this number and not focus on the lyrics.. i just think of the Hobbit: Battle of the 5 armies fight at the end. XD
someone even made a musicvideo of it.
What about Inmate 4859?
INMATE IN HEEELL OR A HEEERO IN PRIIIISON
Haven't even watched yet and i am excited
This music is perfect for Lord of the Rings
This song is about soldiers getting back with PTSD and mental health problems and being thrown out by the government to deal on their own, while the said government collects the rewards for the soldiers victories.....
Should have watched the music video, much more powerful!
wait till you find out about Alvin York in the song 82nd all the way! \m/
Here ya go.

@@whatitdodave checking it out now!
i love your reactions man! :)
correct me if im wrong, but isnt the opening melody an old western/ cowboy melody
It was inspired by the Enrico Morricone soundtracks often used for the so-called "spaghetti westerns". I think Audie Murphy starred in some of them.
to be honest the melody it's more westerns cowboy, for me that is.
The real life Captain America
Texas gang?
