Okay, you definitely need to react to No Bullets Fly, the animated story video, and to Night Witches, the animated story video. (Go for the long one, if it offers you a choice, so that you get the background and some extras as well as the song.) Fair warning, No Bullets Fly is a tearjerker! Suggestion for the Primo Victoria re-do, go for the live version from The Great Tour in Frankfurt. The official music video was made in conjunction with a game company (I'm not really into computer games much, so I don't recall which one) and not only is the audio quality kind of meh, the video itself was pretty much done to promote the game and really had nothing to do with the song's topic of D-Day. Sabaton live is also pretty epic, plus there's some fun interactions in some of their live videos - The Red Baron (Great Tour in Berlin) and 82nd All The Way (Great Tour in Munich) are good examples. 40:1 live at Woodstock 2012 is a must-do because of the crowd. And then the ultimate crowd-pleaser song, Swedish Pagans, do this one live from Wacken 2019 with special guest Tina Guo. And... I think I'll stop running off at the keyboard now, that's already seven suggestions from me and I could probably spout off another dozen if I take time to think about it. (Oh yeah, would love to see more Nightwish, too! :-) You know, just for a change of pace and all that.)
LOOOOOVE this!! MsCatstaff, I appreciate this so much, I really do. Thank you! From what I've seen 'No Bullets Fly' is gonna be something to get my emotions prepared for haha! Honestly, it's an exciting thought that I'm in store for more music that will move me. I love it! I'm CERTAIN that I'll get to all of these and now I know exactly where to look if I ever get lost on my Sabaton journey and I truly appreciate it. I hope you're having a fantastic weekend so far! Thank you so much again for this :)
@@Chief322 You're very welcome! I have to admit, I hadn't heard of Sabaton before seeing all the "Hey, Floor is married to Sabaton's drummer" comments around YT, but I completely fell in love when I checked them out. I adore the history lessons in their songs, brings me back to my teenage years and earning extra credit in history class for memorizing Churchill's "We shall fight in the hills" speech thanks to Iron Maiden using it as the intro for Aces High. :-) Glad to know you plan to continue your Sabaton journey, because it's a wonderful one. My weekend is going well and I hope yours is too!
Chief, Sabaton drummer Hannes Van Dahl is married to Nightwish singer Floor Jansen. Unfortunately the only floor i've ever woken up on is after a party.😏
LOOOL!! Same tbf! What a lovely couple though, eh? Like.. legit POWER couple status. I love it! I did forget this nugget of info tbh with you, so thank you for the reminder, bro :) I hope you're having a great weekend, Gary :) Thank you for always popping up and stuff. I really appreciate that you stick around with us, brother :)
I thoroughly enjoyed your reaction,both for this one and the earlier you have done. I am definitely going to stick around and will follow your journey into the world of Sabaton. Stay safe my friend!
Hey Mia! It's lovely to see you again :) I hope you're having a fantastic Saturday so far! Thank you SO much for your kind words :) They really do mean a hell of a lot and I'm so glad I can be up to scratch and stay entertaining :) Take care, Mia. Have an amazing weekend. Thank you so much
loved you reaction :) i actually never heard of sabaton until my first wacken 2019. it was so epic ... i've been hooked since then. and i love their music videos.. same level of epic :D can't wait for more. have a lovely weekend ♥
Kathiii! Thank you so much, Miss! I really appreciate that a lot :) I'm actually a little jealous that you've A) Seen Sabaton and B) Been to Wacken! That must have been an incredible experience! I'm honestly so excited to keep going with these guys, like I said in the video, it seems that they're their OWN vibe, like nobody else is gonna be giving me the same feeling as these guys and I love it. I honestly hope I get to go see them next March! I'll keep my fingers crossed and keep filling my ears with Sabaton haha! I can't fail, surely! I hope you ALSO have an amazing weekend, Miss! Thank you again :) Stay safe out there!
@@Chief322 Wacken is indeed incredible.. I was so nervous at first because I am relatively small.. and I'm always in fear of being trampled to death and I've also never been to a concert xD but it was so amazing. The people are awesome, so nice and polite.. its like one enormous big family dressed in band-shirts and I felt at home from the start :D when you ever get the chance to come here, I def recommend it. I think as a metal head it is your duty to, at least once, do the Wacken-thing :D Oooh I hope you get the chance to see Sabaton! Keeping my fingers crossed for you! :)
@@xkatilea Wacken was your FIRST concert!? Daaaamn... what a way to kick things off for yourself! I kinda love that and I'm a bit jealous lol! Also, I agree, Wacken MUST be done! Honestly, I TRULY feel that! I'm only 5'8 and about 170lbs so when I stand amongst a crowd of 6ft 200lb+ men.. it's kinda intimidating AF but, as you say, everyone is always so kind and polite, we're all there to experience the same thing and it really brings us together. Thank you! I shall be keeping mine crossed too, so, hopefully combined, we can will it to be a reality haha! Have an amazing week, Miss :) Stay safe!
@@Chief322 Yes it's def a way to kick things off :D but I told myself: if you survive wacken, you'll survive any concert! :D I already got tickets for next year and I hope it'll not get cancelnd like the last two years.. especially with Slipknot in the line up.. I always wanted to see them live!! :D And yes it really brings the people together. I remember sitting down on the ground because my feet nearly killed me after running around 3 days straight :D and than several people came around, standing by my side so that I didn't get run over.. it was so nice and I was really moved because I didn't expected that. :') I wish you an amazing week as well!! :)
Ohhhhhh! I went to see Slipknot in January last year and you are gonna LOVE Wacken with them involved. You kinda got me wanting to see how much it'd cost me to get out there lol!! I agree with your statement there too, you got through Wacken so you'll definitely be able to smash your way through pretty much anything now haha! Ayyy nice! That's what it's all about! I love to hear that :D Music really is the best at bringing us closer, particularly when the band is a group of lovely people. It just emanates out and we all feel it. I love it so much! Thank you! You're so kind :) My week has been decent! Lots of anxiety the last couple days but I'm working through it! I GOT this haha! Much love, Kathi :) Thank you again for your comments and for sticking around and stuff. I really appreciate you!
Dude, I'm a Kansan. Oceans are fucking terrifying. Give me wheat fields and land-locked spaces. I like to see open spaces for miles. Also, Sabaton is the shit. Love them. Have you listened to Queensryche Operation Mindcrime?
A-MEN, brother! LOL! Absolutely shit scared of the ocean haha! I live in the most middle part of the UK too, not by choice, but definitely happy about it and certainly don't wanna get any closer to the edge LOL! I have not! I'll add it to the list right now, bro :) Thank you! There's a strawpoll going on on my community tab if you'd wanna drop a vote?

Thank you for this, I'm glad I'm not alone in my oceanic terror lol! I hope you're having a great week so far :)
May i recommend sabaton en livstid i krig which means a life time of war Recommend the live swedish version of the song cause the crowd sings along to the song and you Will maybe cry If you have the lyrics up for The song PS the swedish and english versions has different lyrics
Recommendation noted, my friend. Thank you! I'm certainly not opposed to a good cry to a new song so I'll definitely be up to the task and hopefully.. although unlikely.. I can stay strong and not lose my s&*t LOL! Thank you, Patrik :) Have a great weekend, bro :)
@04:50 Honestly, I have respect for both the elements, the sky, and the ocean, but what scares me most is mankind G_G Such a good song! 🙏 I'll pitch you a song from each album off of my Spotify playlist, starting of on more naval battles: - Midway - Wehrmacht - Metal Crüe - Swedish Pagans - Shotgun - The Lion from the North - Night Witches (Bonus: Swedish National Anthem (Live at Sweden Rock Festival)(Hit me up if you are doing this, in which case I'll write a translation for the intro and the song down for ye..!)
Ohhh damn, deep! I love it and honestly, I couldn't agree more. I LOVE when they sky is angry/scary, for some reason it makes me realise how small and insignificant I am and it brings me an overwhelming sense of peace. Whereas, with the ocean.. I just.. I've always had panic attacks in water and I cannot swim to save my life (literally lol) It TERRIFIES me, but, as you say, I definitely respect it, which is probably why I try to stay away at all costs lol! Dude, THANK you! Love me a good little list of songs. I really appreciate this, I'll add the missing ones to the list and I'm certain I'll work my way there eventually.

Bismark class battleships.. Such unique ships.. only 2 where ever made. Was also the largest ever in 1940. only outdone 1 year later when the Japanese Yamato class was made, which noone has ever made bigger battleships since. 1. Yamato-Class (1941) (Ship Name; Yamato, Sister ship; Musashi) 2. Iowa-Class (1943) (Ship name; Iowa. The last battleship to be built by the US navy). 3. Bismark-Class (1940) (Ship name; Bismark, Sister ship; Tirpitz)
Cheif!! You are totaly correct, i got the same feeling of going back in time, but this time in the 80s ther wher progressiv technical symphonic Metal with a drop of Europ and Iron Maiden or somthing like that😀👍🎼❤️. But once again i wanted to mount my horse and go to war and save my fair maiden 😂😅⚔️.
Right!! It's hard to put your finger on EXACTLY the feeling but it's certainly a nostalgic one and I love it! And hey.. if you need help on your journey to save your maiden, I'll strap up and be galloping alongside you, my friend! Just so long as we have Sabaton to ride to LOL! Much love, Peter! Thank you for always popping up, bro :) I appreciate you. Have a fantastic weekend, brother!
@@Chief322 thank you buddy, and a good weekend to you too🤘. NOW LETS RIDE🐎🌪️!! This is a top 5 channel for me, so keep up the good work, this must be going somewher good😀.
I highly recommend "Sabaton - Midway" and the video you should use is "Sabaton - Midway (Music video)" created by Knight SGC Archive (there is no Official Music Video for this one) and it is about the Battle of Midway in World War II in which the Japanese planned a surprise attack to capture the island of Midway and the Americans learned of the plans and set up an ambush on the Japanese Fleet from the direction they didn't suspect them (subtitles work for this video and I recommend them).
Bro, THANK you for this suggestion. I'll make note right away and add it to the list. I'll try to drill CC's into my head lol! They distract me a little but if they're recommended I'll certainly follow that advice :) Thank you again, man :) I hope you have a lovely weekend!
Whooo! Doesn't get much more epic than that! The only things that come close (imo) are En Livstid I Krig and Defense of Moscow. Angels Calling would be up there as well, as it was performed live with Apocalyptica.
Defense of Moscow WAS a dope song, you're not wrong haha! Righto, I'll make notes on the other two, my friend :) Thank you for this! Also.. Apocalyptica AND Sabaton..?! Sign me up! I'll be DEFINITELY getting to that one! Thank you again :) Have a great weekend!
@@Chief322 For more Apocalyptica and Sabaton together, check out The Price of a Mile live on The Great Tour in Helsinki. That one is WWI, the battle of Passchendale.
Took like 15 torpedo bombers and 4 destroyers to take down the Bismarck, and the Germans choose to scuttle her. So he wen't down on his own terms rather than being destroyed or captured by the enemy, pretty badass
Their Metal is OK and I like the idea of their songs being all about war (though this one, Bismarck, was written for the company that makes the game World Of Warships) but, as an ex-History and English teacher, I'm too aware that they have avoided making a song about Sweden's participation in WW2. Everyone seems to know Sweden were neutral but few seem to realise that they spent the entire war, up to the last few days, supplying Nazi Germany with nearly all its iron ore, which was absolutely essential and necessary for them to make the tanks, planes and guns that killed so many millions. They also bought coal from Germany throughout the war, providing much needed income for the Nazis. Maybe one day they'll write a song about that dark 'secret' but somehow I doubt it. Band-Maid's only secret is Maiko lips!
Hmm it would seam that thies fackts made it possible for Denmark to get our Jewish population over ther safely, due to the trust germany had to Sweden 🤔. See good in bad is what i think, when this is the case. But the main thing i would like to express here is my gratitude for the history lesson👌, i had no clue about this👀❤️.
They write songs about military history, why would they sing about Sweden selling metal to nazis? There are "dirty secrets" everywhere in history, they just don't make good songs.
Tony! I honestly appreciate this lesson a lot, bro! I didn't know that and I LOVE to learn history! I'm gonna have to come find you for a personal history lesson, brother! LOL! It gets me to thinking, like Peter says, I wonder what kind of positive knock on effect it may have had for the surrounding countries with the Swedish being trusted by the Germans. I love being taught new things and engaging my brain like this. Thank you, brother :) I hope you have a great weekend!
@@PeterMortensen1978 It's not publicised a lot but, like you say, their neutrality did enable some people to escape the war and the Holocaust/ Shoah so something good came out of their stance. Denmark and Norway had very brave resistance fighters who fought and died through the entire war.
Remember that Sabaton made this song because there was such a high demand for one from the fans.
Legends for doing so!
"The te-RRRR-or of the seas" Love the way he rolls his 'R's. Thanks!

Looks like their genre is "history metal"......I didn't think metal could get more diverse!
they do write about history, but thats not a metal genre, thats just the lyrics, correct me if im wrong, bu they are mroe Symphonic metal?

React to the rise of evil by Sabaton
Their Metal is OK and I like the idea of their songs being all about war (though this one, Bismarck, was written for the company that makes the game World Of Warships) but, as an ex-History and English teacher, I'm too aware that they have avoided making a song about Sweden's participation in WW2. Everyone seems to know Sweden were neutral but few seem to realise that they spent the entire war, up to the last few days, supplying Nazi Germany with nearly all its iron ore, which was absolutely essential and necessary for them to make the tanks, planes and guns that killed so many millions. They also bought coal from Germany throughout the war, providing much needed income for the Nazis. Maybe one day they'll write a song about that dark 'secret' but somehow I doubt it.

@@PeterMortensen1978 It's not publicised a lot but, like you say, their neutrality did enable some people to escape the war and the Holocaust/ Shoah so something good came out of their stance. Denmark and Norway had very brave resistance fighters who fought and died through the entire war.
