@@Sabaton I learned about Alexander the Great by Iron Maiden singing about him in 1986. I learned part of the book of Exodus and the story of Moses through Metallica's "Creeping Death" song. And now, I have learned something about the 1527 Sack of Rome. Thank you!
You know, I was raised catholic, so my grandmother always listened to gospels. I miss her to this day. I think this is something we both could've enjoyed.
You haven't really LOST your grandmother, @eliavi3251, you GAINED a guardian angel who not only watches over you but, even now is listening by your side. Ex Virtute Dei Defendam!
I'm a Christian pastor, a life-long metal fan, a D&D player (& DM), and a Castlevania fan - this song appeals to me from like 40 angles. Just fantastic work.
God bless you! I came out of the new age movement, with psychic training from middle school up, then Jesus came to me in a vision and pulled me back. Now I'm a Christian again, as I was as a very small child.
I discovered them over a year ago and haven't looked back since. They reignited my love for history which led to me learning more and more in my free time, while at the same time got me into metal and I wouldn't want it any other way

@@gatopreto9236 Yep. I'm an atheist. There's nothing religous about this song. It's about a historical event. People don't actually listen to it and only listen to the chorus. Just like Born in the USA.

The archbishop of poland went to a sabaton, and said "the churcg bows to a metal band", and gave them a sword. Also, many priests i know listen to metal
And the coolest way to tell the story of how a massively outnumbered Amount of Swiss Guards chose to give both their sword blades and lives up to protect and guarantee his Holiness's escape, that is what I call a true story of sacrifice ⚔️✝️
It may sound ridiculous but I discovered this song when I broke up with my gf and it helped me a lot, made me smile everytime I listened to it. Thanks Sabaton.
@@Winterstormadvisory Give it some time, dude. Weeks, months or even years, that's your call. Just remember nobody has the right to make you feel you're a worthless person. You're not. Everything happens for a reason. Listen to music, it will help you a lot. Take care, amigo.
yeah their music is a lot more accessible to non metal people I've noticed. Everytime i try to get someone into metal the sabaton route almost always works
34 year old father of 2 and a husband of a great woman .I will be gettin baptized on fathers day along with my whole family and my pastor approved to have this song played at our baptism after our testimonies to god. the power iof this song is unmatched, we are in a time where i believe we will stand with our lord against the evil once again and we will all walk the steps of heaven together by gods grace

*The last stand - LYRICS* In the heart of Holy See In the home of Christianity The Seat of power is in danger There´s a foe of a thousand swords They´ve been abandoned by their lords Their fall from grace will pave their path, to damnation Then the 189 In the service of heaven They’re protecting the holy line It was 1527, gave their lives on the steps to heaven Thy will be done! For the grace, for the might of our lord For the home of the holy For the faith, for the way of the sword Gave their lives so boldly For the grace, for the might of our lord In the name of his glory For the faith, for the way of the sword Come and tell their story again Under guard of 42 Along a secret avenue Castel Saint’Angelo is waiting They’re the guard of the Holy See They’re the guards of Christianity Their path to history is paved with salvation Then the 189 In the service of heaven They’re protecting the holy line It was 1527, gave their lives on the steps to heaven Thy will be done! For the grace, for the might of our lord For the home of the holy For the faith, for the way of the sword Gave their lives so boldly For the grace, for the might of our lord In the name of his glory For the faith, for the way of the sword Come and tell their story again Dying for salvation with dedication No Capitulation, annihilation Papal commendation, reincarnation Heaven is your destination Dying for salvation with dedication No Capitulation, annihilation Papal commendation, reincarnation Heaven is your destination In the name of god For the grace, for the might of our lord For the home of the holy For the faith, for the way of the sword Gave their lives so boldly For the grace, for the might of our lord In the name of his glory For the faith, for the way of the sword Come and tell their story Gave their lives so boldly Come and tell the Swiss guards story again *Historic fact of the song* The story of the 189 brave soldiers in the Swiss guard during the sacking of Rome in 1527. Since Charles V, ruler of the holy roman empire couldn’t pay his troops they mutinied and forced their commander to lead them towards Rome where plunder was plentiful. When the invading force entered the vatican pope Clement VII escaped to Castel Sant’Angelo via passetto di Borgo. The few remaining guardsmen gave their lives on the steps to St. Peters Basilica.
Fun fact, the german soldiers were called "Lanzichenecchi", from the italian word "Lancia", which means spear, because of the very long spear they carried. Those soldiers werent imperial soldiers, but mercenaries, and thats why they mutinied. On the other hand, even the Swiss Guard was made out of swiss mercenaries, but instead of surrending while being outnumbered, they decided to gave their life for the Pope.
The power of this song is undeniable. If I take a moment to actually listen to the lyrics instead of working with it as just background music, it never fails to make me tear up while thinking about the sacrifices that were made.
@@Baraodojaguary Same. The fact that people sacrificed themselves made me fall. I am currently working on trying to take out all swear words from my vocabulary and have been eating more healthier and been more cleaner. I intend to start reading the Bible soon but I don’t think I will go to church
I have my sabaton playlist and this was the first song I ever heard by sabaton. The first sabaton song I ever downloaded and will always listen to this song. Sang with a powerful message and the truth.
History teacher: Has anyone heard of the Swiss Guard Story? Me: They're the 189, in the service of heaven, they're protecting the holy line, it was 1527! Edit: Wow a year later and I had no idea this comment had almost 5k likes on it. Thank you guys.
It has a good melody and amazing harmony, most heavy metal is still pretty ass from my experience. Just some bands actually understand you still need melody and harmony in your heavy metal.
Sabaton has changed my life. I have been listening to Sabaton for 2 years now, and I absolutely love it. I have had a hard time in the last 2 years, a lot of stress and depression, but listening to Sabaton helps me relax and forget my problems. I wish you all the best.
These are the kind of comments that make our day. We're so glad that our music has helped. Music has that power. We can definitely relate! ROCK ON & Happy New Year! 🤘
LOL! I am so glad i live alone in my own house, so i can blast music however loud i want. It's brick, so even at full blast, you can barely hear it outside, i checked.
My parents use to say, metal is not good to listen... I played this many times at full volume in my room, then later they came and asked the name of music cuase they enjoyed it... Great work SABATON.. 😇😇😇😇
Dying for salvation, with dedication no capitulation, annihilation papal commendation, reincarnation Heaven is your destination *IN THE NAME OF GOD* I love singing this verse
@@Sabaton I was introduced to you through my friends when playing the game known as "For Honor" on Sundays. We would put down our cross emblem onto our shields, and we would go to battle with our knights in shiny armor when listening to this song... Every Sunday... for a very long time. Thats How I was introduced, AwEsOmE song btw. I was wondering if there is a proper place on the internet where it could be "possible" to receive permission to use this music in some edited videos of mine. I have several videos of a game I play called "Conqueror's blade." I was hoping i could get permission from you all on using your song in my Conqueror's blade video. Im not sure where on the internet would be the best place to ask this of u tho. ;)
I doubt you'll ever see this Sabaton, but as a Christian history buff, this song single handedly inspired my physical fitness journey. Anytime I do running I'll always say the the second bridge to myself, "Dying for salvation, with dedication". It helps me run a little farther. Thank you for inspiring me.
My husband and son saw this band last night in Youngstown and, even my "I can't get out of the 80's hubby" loved this band. Tonight, I listened to them for the first time and, my 59 year old mind is blown! Love❤
Romans 10:9-10 "That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved." And please repent of all of your sins and obey all of God's commands before it is too late 🙏. Amen 🙏
@@reclusiarchgrimaldus1269 What the fuck, go preach somewhere its wanted, plenty of places on RUclips, and have your "perfect god" honor his so-called "promises" before preaching about it. edit for spelling
@@overlordhabib Nobody, I just find it annoying when christians preach unsolicited in the comments about believing in the christian god, and trying to guilt-trap and scare people into believing, when the bible's/the christians god's "promises" are easily disproved. Believe what you want, just don't go to random comments to spam the bible unsolicited. Simple as that.
Sabaton is literally one of the greatest metal bands of all time. No cap, there music is able to teach you more than most teacher in school. I love Sabaton!🔥
@@yoboikamil525 In the sabaton history channel's episode where they describe the battle of wizna (song - 40 to 1), they explain how the youngsters preferred their songs to history books. The adults were just happy that the history of poland was being taught. Win win i guess :-)
This was the song that first introduced me to the epicness that is SABATON. As a Christian and an ex soldier, I couldn’t think of a better way to go out.
Exactly how I felt when I heard this! I found Sabaton end of 2022 and I fell in love with their music. Coming from a fellow Christian who likes rock, Sabaton is awesome ❤️
history nerd.... LOL You are only interested in what suits you! Who created god? Answer: Age of universe is 13.82 billion years, Age of earth is 4.54 billion years, Age of mankind is 200,000 years, Age of God concept is 10,000 years, Age of mother God is 8,000 years, Age of the Hinduism is 6,000 years, Age of Zoroastrianism is 4,000 years, Age of Judaism is 4,000 years, Age of Jainism is 2,600 years, Age of Buddhism is 2,600 years, Age of Confucianism is 2,500 years, Age of Taoism is 2,400years, Age of Christianity is 2,000 years, Age of Islam is 1,200 years, Age of Sikhism 400 years, Age of shiridi Sai baba cult is 100 years. Various Gods are created by man at various periods. So God is man's creation.
They are only adjuncts, for we can gain extensive learning from diverse sources; however, one becomes erudite from books. How do you think the lyricist acquired his knowledge of history?
My mom talking to 18 year old me: What do you want to do after you graduate high school? 18 year old me: Joining the Guard Mom: National Guard? Me: No, Swiss
It's not that easy! To join the Pontifical Swiss Guard you have to to be - a native citizen of Switzerland, - Catholic, - unmarried, - a male, - between the age of 19 and 30, - have a professional degree or high school diploma, - be at least 174 cm tall, - and have completed your basic service in the Swiss Armed Forces with good conduct.
I’m not sure, but I think this song legitimately saved my life once. I was suffering from a severe migraine alone in the middle of the night, With no energy to do anything. I played this on repeat a few times, and it gave me the energy to call for help. Thank you Sabaton…
I listen to Sabaton because: They are a great band They compose great songs They keep me away from getting depressed They are awesome Thanks for everything Sabaton
@@paulnittler9248 it is more about their bravery and unflinching commitment to do their duty even if they know that they are likely to die while doing it.
Ok I did some research on "The Stand of the Swiss Guard" as its called. It is true that they swear in new recruits on that day, May 6, to honor those who died. However, you dont get people excited about joining your group by telling them all about the ultimate sacrifice they might have to make. You dont shy from it, but dont lead the conversation with "you might die like these guys did". However, this song is inspiring, emotional and a good tribute to the brave men who gave their last to protect that which they held most important.
Dying for salvation...for dedication... No capitulation...annihilation... Papal commendation...reincarnation HEAVEN IS YOUR DESTINATION! This will forever resonate in my brain.
SABATON!! As a veteran, I absolutely love that these guys sing about bravery, honor, strength and resolve without the politics or borders, just humanities finest moments! No matter what side, if you were a beast, they got you!
Seriously, no one's going to talk about the freaking UNICORN rocking out at 0:33 ?! Sabaton's music is so incredible they even attract mythical creatures, wth
@@ChristophKuckartz the only metal songs I knew are anime Openings and Dragonforce - Through the Fire and Flames. Now however, is a whole different matters.
Other bands: Let's make songs about badass vikings, cool pirates, barbarians and awesome fantasy warriors killing dragons. Sabaton: Let's make a song about the Swiss Guard and we will make it sound more badass than anything.
Sabaton: ''Ok, ok, so you know the most boring part of a war, the armastice and peace deal, right?'' ''What if we made the most intense song of the album about that?'' *The end of the war to end all wars happens, and it's fucking amazing*
I am an atheist, but still this song is inspiring. That the 189 Swiss Guard were so dedicated to their beliefs that they laid down their lives, just so the Pope could get to a better fortress of safety. It is a piece of wonderful history where people trancended their mortal persons and laid everything on the line. And it has become a wonderful tradition that it is May 6th that the new Swiss Guard are accepted into the ranks of the guards of the Vatican. (These sack of Rome took place on May 6, 1527.)
If you think all of that is badass, learn a little about what you’ll be missing in the glory of heaven if you stay atheist. It’s never too late until it’s too late, my friend.
I was already a Metal fan, but my wife asked me on our first date if I liked Sabaton during our "what music do you like" conversation. I'd never heard of them before. Long story short, we've been married for 10 years and have been to 2 Sabaton concerts so far, both here in Los Angeles.
as a Russian as a historian as a Christian as a guy who listened to sabaton songs a lot of times I thank sabaton for their really good songs infinite/10 brother greetings from Russia god bless y'all

I'm crying at this moment. For the name of the God, they gave their lifes so boldly. Never understood that religion things. I'll never understand that. But this, and the others too... Perfect. Simply perfect!
I finally made it out of all the comments. I wanted to say I live on a farm and a big one so I take my dogs on a walk every day and then I put my headphones in and listen to 28 of my favourite sabaton songs and just listening to your songs makes me always so proud because I sut not know there are still bands that play about music. Whell also thanks for all the great songs
And I now have my new favorite history teacher... the way he would welcome us is by playing songs at the start of the day by Sabaton.... and the best part, whatever the song was about, is what he would teach us about that day. Best teacher in the world

*The last stand - LYRICS*
In the heart of Holy See
In the home of Christianity
The Seat of power is in danger
There´s a foe of a thousand swords
They´ve been abandoned by their lords
Their fall from grace will pave their path, to damnation
Then the 189
In the service of heaven
They’re protecting the holy line
It was 1527, gave their lives on the steps to heaven
Thy will be done!
For the grace, for the might of our lord
For the home of the holy
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Gave their lives so boldly
For the grace, for the might of our lord
In the name of his glory
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Come and tell their story again
Under guard of 42
Along a secret avenue
Castel Saint’Angelo is waiting
They’re the guard of the Holy See
They’re the guards of Christianity
Their path to history is paved with salvation
Then the 189
In the service of heaven
They’re protecting the holy line
It was 1527, gave their lives on the steps to heaven
Thy will be done!
For the grace, for the might of our lord
For the home of the holy
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Gave their lives so boldly
For the grace, for the might of our lord
In the name of his glory
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Come and tell their story again
Dying for salvation with dedication
No Capitulation, annihilation
Papal commendation, reincarnation
Heaven is your destination

For the grace, for the might of our lord
In the name of his glory
For the faith, for the way of the sword
Come and tell their story
Gave their lives so boldly
Come and tell the Swiss guards story again
*Historic fact of the song*
The story of the 189 brave soldiers in the Swiss guard during the sacking of Rome in 1527.
Since Charles V, ruler of the holy roman empire couldn’t pay his troops they mutinied and forced their commander to lead them towards Rome where plunder was plentiful.
When the invading force entered the vatican pope Clement VII escaped to Castel Sant’Angelo via passetto di Borgo.
The few remaining guardsmen gave their lives on the steps to St. Peters Basilica.
If you just click read more in the description...
wew, you just got trolled epic style@@midknightranger71
Fun fact, the german soldiers were called "Lanzichenecchi", from the italian word "Lancia", which means spear, because of the very long spear they carried. Those soldiers werent imperial soldiers, but mercenaries, and thats why they mutinied. On the other hand, even the Swiss Guard was made out of swiss mercenaries, but instead of surrending while being outnumbered, they decided to gave their life for the Pope.
In the name of God. Some capitalization errors in those lyrics.
The power of this song is undeniable. If I take a moment to actually listen to the lyrics instead of working with it as just background music, it never fails to make me tear up while thinking about the sacrifices that were made.
Thank you so much Cameron

Ok I did some research on "The Stand of the Swiss Guard" as its called. It is true that they swear in new recruits on that day, May 6, to honor those who died. However, you dont get people excited about joining your group by telling them all about the ultimate sacrifice they might have to make. You dont shy from it, but dont lead the conversation with "you might die like these guys did". However, this song is inspiring, emotional and a good tribute to the brave men who gave their last to protect that which they held most important.

I am an atheist, but still this song is inspiring. That the 189 Swiss Guard were so dedicated to their beliefs that they laid down their lives, just so the Pope could get to a better fortress of safety. It is a piece of wonderful history where people trancended their mortal persons and laid everything on the line. And it has become a wonderful tradition that it is May 6th that the new Swiss Guard are accepted into the ranks of the guards of the Vatican. (These sack of Rome took place on May 6, 1527.)
If you think all of that is badass, learn a little about what you’ll be missing in the glory of heaven if you stay atheist. It’s never too late until it’s too late, my friend.

And I now have my new favorite history teacher... the way he would welcome us is by playing songs at the start of the day by Sabaton.... and the best part, whatever the song was about, is what he would teach us about that day. Best teacher in the world
T(h)ank you!
@Opecuted I know right!
@@Sabatonhi!
Best band ever, this is the music we live for.
Thank you friend 🤘
