Awww!! Got a message for this young adorable girl.. Don't ever be afraid or ashamed to show your emotions 🌹. I have the age of your dad and cry each time i see a video 🤷. It's normal for the people who care and love music to have that kind of reactions.
And Dad, TX you a lot for your channel. I am subscribed to a lot of them (about a hundred) and i think that you're the no.1 ! Love you all from Québec Canada 🇲🇶🇨🇦🤟
Wow! Thank you 🤘😃🤘 not too bad for just starting in june and not using the typical reactor set up ❤️
Me too, The tears flow often for me during this and Night Witches and No Bullets Fly, the fact that these stories are real make them really emotional. I wish the human history was not littered with such sadness and violence, but hopefully the future will bring about a change where these kind of events do need to happen, one can only hope. Stay strong Metal Cat Ava and as EvilJeeP said don't be ashamed of letting your emotions show, it shows how compassionate and kind you are, and Metal Dad it is great to see you being there and opening new worlds for you kids to see and learn from.
You're not alone, dear Metal Cat Ava; many of us have shed a few tears over this sad, yet beautiful story. I'm glad you liked the video. Happy Christmas to you all!
200% agree!
🤘❤️💯😃
yeah I am past 50 and my eyes tear up.
just now remembering while serving. the feeling you get when someone that you have spent time with training, shooting... is buried, you stand standing there in uniform, alive and knowing that it could have been you, that is a memory I hope none to have.
Makes me tear up everytime I watch this video, I'm 63 years old. Great Song
❤️
Well I’m 55 years old and this song bring me almost every time to tears to , seeing what’s going on in the world specially in Ukrainia right now, we just can have the conclusion that people never learn, sad
❤️🤘
Indeed!
Did y'all knew that 'Carol of bells' as to hear here is originated from Ukraine?
*Lest we forget* ,sadly we see the same pictures here as in Bakhmut now.
Metal hugs to you Metal Cat. I'm a very emotional dude, so it doesn't take much to make me feel. Not gonna lie, I cried with you Ava. If every man and woman had the level of empathy you showed dear child...there would be no war. Powerful song; just shattered my heart. Thank you guys so much for this 🤘❤️🤘
Thank you for watching our videos🤘😃🤘 Merry Christmas!❤️
My pleasure man. Merry Christmas to you, your lovely daughters and all of your family. 🎄🤘
Sending Love and Peace from Sweden. Remember that empathy is a great thing. Don't lose it, ever!
Well said, empathy is beautiful.
❤️🤘
little girl made me cry. so precious😢❤
no worries it makes me cry too n im 65 honey
🤘❤️😃
Ava is a trooper 💙
Merry Christmas Week 🎅 🎄 🤶
Merry Christmas 🤘😃🤘
Dear Metal Cat. I wish you a Merry and peaceful Christmas. 🎄🧚♂️🧚♀️from northern Germany
Same to you as well🤘😃🤘
You did the right one. A very good song for this time of year. Kudos to all that recommended this one. You know it's good when it elicits an emotional response like it did for you and many, many others. No shame in showing emotion Metal Cat Ava, it is a tearjerker. On the piano he was playing Carol of the Bells. I give it a 5/5.
May your daughters and their future families never have to know the horrors of war. You can lean more about the Christmas Truce of 1914 by viewing the Sabaton History Channel. Just search RUclips - Christmas Truce - December 1914 - Sabaton History 107. May you, Metal Dad, and your family have a safe and Merry Christmas.
Thank you and Merry Christmas! Thank you for watching our videos 🤘❤️😃
This video is very well crafted, but also quite brutal. The message is two dimensional, because the fight continued after the truce. And yes, I'm a big bulky guy, but the Floor's outro 'finnishs' me every time 😭. Still, Merry Christmas and Peace to the World! ⛄🎅👍
Same to you as well 🤘😃🤘
awww poor cub it hit her in the feels l be sendin her a hug this also be my fav sabaton song
🤘😃🤘
This is one of the greatest stories from WWI. Of soldiers continuing the chivalric traditions of their ancestors. Also, I cry myself. Watching "The Return of the King" makes me cry at so many points. For example, when the Rohirrim arrive at Minas Tirith and King Théoden, Merry, and Eowyn so their fear at the odds that are worse than they thought they would be. Rohan had about 6,000 men, Mordor had around 50,000-100,000. Then Théoden rallies his men and yells "death". Not that the orcs would die, but that THEY would die. On a fun note, this siege is based on a real siege from history. The 1683 Siege and Battle of Vienna. Sabaton has a song about that battle. "The Winged Hussars" One of their all time best. (Also one of their most memable songs).
Metal Cat Ava, it's okay to cry. Many ,many have cried watching this video. You are not alone.
The piano intro is Carol of the Bells played backwards. This video is movie quality, it was made by people who usually make movies. When the world shut down, no movies got made, so they had time for this. The entire band was in the video. The first soldier out of the trenches, the tall blonde guy, is drummer Hannes Van Dahl, Floor's husband. Guitarist Tommy Johansson threw the grenade, guitarist Chris Rorland was the first soldier on the other side out of the trenches, bassist Par Sundstrom is the guy with the beard in the trench that tried to call Hannes back.
The truce really happened and was unofficial, the officers and higher ups were pissed that it took place. Following years, they threatened the troops with punishment if it happened again, including execution.
Something to cheer her up. Does she like Frozen? Look on Floor Jansen's RUclips channel. Floor has done a cover of 'Let It Go' from Frozen. She made it during lockdown when her daughter was about 3.
Thank you🤘😃🤘
There ist a movie "Joyeux Noel - Merry Christmas" from 2005 and of course the Christmas Advert 2014 from Sainsbury. Both show this event very well, although the film is of course more detailed. You should watch this.
Well done Metal Cat Ava for watching this most important of Christmas songs. This is the true message of how there is hope at this time of the year, but also, we know how close we are located in Europe to a current tragic conflict.
On a lighter note - Tommy Johansson the guy playing the guitar amongst the footballers has his own channel and is releasing a classic Xmas song in metal style each day in December. Your daughters will like it.
Not to forget all of Tommy's "Disney versions" of Sabaton songs 😂😊
Awesome to know🤘😃🤘
Your daughter cried. It makes me cry a bit too. Now you have to tell here a lot about World War One and the futility of wars.
❤️
Also, recommend En Visted I Krig live in Gostonburg in Swedish with subtitles...this song gets everyone, Sabaton has a link in their videos to the history of the subject of the song which is worth a look also
En livstid i krig Gothenburg
Göteborg

🤘😃
I'm with you, Ava - I cry almost every time, and I'm 58! IT really shows how you can't destroy the humanity of people, though - put them in a situation like this, and they still empathise with the 'enemy'. "Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet, lest we forget - lest we forget!"
🤘😃🤘❤️
I wish that song to be in schools for Christmas
💯
Fantastic production. Give credit for all the trench builders.
Hopefully this will be the new Christmas carol #1 instead of that Mariah Carey thing :D
😂🤘💯
Great job, she made me tear up knowing what her little face was expressing . on the bright side of this she just got a history lesson that she would never get in our joke of schools we have these days
🤘😃🤘
I congratulate daughter's with such a big heart, let her stay like this...
❤️
Part of the history about this is it was during the first year of the war. It was before the Germans introduced poison gas, before Zeppelins started bombing London, before the hate and animosity could really take root.
And no shame in crying, grown adults cry about it too. It's a bitter-sweet and beautiful story.
Be warned though that the "No Bullet Fly" animated story video may hit a little harder. It reduced me to tears first time I saw it.
🤘😃🤘 thank you!
Dearie there's no shame at all to tear up at this song. I'm a grown man and Veteran myself and Always get watery eyed at this song (as well as a few other Sabaton pieces)
❤️🤘💯
I’m well over 100 times watching this and I still get emotional. Hugs to you both and keep up the great reactions!
🤘😃🤘
This reaction is just priceless, it shows that basic understand of emotion between humans and it doesn't matter how young you are, or have ever experiance war you feel the pain and joy. I just love this and it got me once again emotional to see your daughters feelings.
Lest we forget! Dont repeat history!
❤️😃
What a cute one youre raising. Thumbs up for the headphones.
🤘😃🤘
What a strong little girl your metal Cat is. Tell her there is nothing wrong with crying when something affects you that way. 95% of the people that watched had a tear in their eyes. She came back and held strong. Way to go!
Thank you! Merry Christmas 🤘😃🤘
Awwww Ava! 💖
Yesterday, Sabaton published the animated version of "Lady of the Dark", who is a great song about the most decorated woman in military history :). The song itself was very good, now it's way better !
ruclips.net/video/3AsRfcrZeUE/видео.html
Awesome
Watching adults react and cry to this video is one thing. I did myself. Your little one here is sharp and got the point of the song and video and good for her! This depiction of the very real event that occurred is supposed to hit you right in the feels, and it does its job quite well. Sabaton is an excellent band and educational to boot. I got the pleasure of seeing them live with Judas Priest in Sept '22. Great concert! You have a new subscriber btw :)
Awesome! Thank you🤘😃🤘
If you'd like to see one of their concerts, you could react to the live performance of En Livstid I Krig at Gothenburg. It’s listed on RUclips as SABATON - En Livstid I Krig (Live - The Great Tour - Gothenburg). It’s in Swedish, so be sure subtitles are on.
🤘😃🤘
Metal Cat you have a beautiful heart , that’s why we listen to music to feel the true soul . Amazing band emotional video. Merry Christmas Metal Dad and your daughters ❤
😃❤️😃🤟
Sabaton is an amazing band. I love they way they tell a story. Merry Christmas.
It's a great and very sad song. Metal Dead thanks for your reaction. Your daughter's reaction is priceless and very cute 😥❤. I cried with her at the end
❤️😃🤟
Stories like are important to remember and I hope you never stop being emotional about it.
I can't imagine there are many in the US who can truly understand the scope of the horror that was World War I. There was a battle where the front lines stretched across France from the English Channel halfway to the Mediterranean and lasted days without a break. No one was ready for this new level of warfare. Hundreds of thousands of people dying for nothing more than agreements between rulers to send their citizens to fight for someone else's argument, people pushing back on rulers who made their lives miserable, and powerful people wanting more power for no other reason than they felt entitled to it.
It's important to remember that each casualty from a battle in history or today is more than a statistic but is a person with hopes and dreams and family and friends.
This is the only Sabaton song where I'd recommend the original video over the animated story video. The animated video is good, but not nearly as emotional as this.
🤘😃
This girl is such a trooper! You're not alone to shed a tear or two to this one. 👍
🤘😃
Can't wait to see them again to sing the chorus with the crowd. Metalheads are like a family at a concert. BTW...I cried to Ava.
🤘❤️💯
In my opinion, the Christmas Truce of 1914 is one of the most remarkable moments in human history, Sabaton truly did it justice with this song.
Absolutely love this song, and its meaning🤟
I'm a metal head mom and I always tear up to some of Sabaton's more emotional songs (there are quite a few of them). I've seen a lot of reactions to this music video and there are grown men crying in front of the camera. Nothing wrong with it! It also shows how much wrong war is!
Much love to both of you and Merry Christmas from Sweden!🎄🇸🇪
Merry Christmas and thank you 🤘😃
If you want cry a lot with sabaton, see No bullets fly (animated video) you guys will love it, & it's perfect for Christmas because this history happened days before Christmas.
Could be next thank you!
Wonderful reaction… Who doesnt get teareyed from this song ❤
Even grown up has shed tears to this song.
Good video!
OH DAD!!.... I sure hope you understand just how intelligent, sweet and loving your little girl is!!!!... She broke my heart at the end of this video! But I truly hope she is willing to keep on doing videos even if they are sad, because people NEED to feel! And that is what music and great artist do!! Make you feel! From one father to another!
❤️💯
4:00 you both without noticing each other start perfectly banging to the beat in sync.
Thank you and same to you as well. I did not even notice the headbang til after the fact too funny 🤘😃🤘
Love this song listen to it a lot gives me chills and tears every time , its very powerful and very multi emotional
I met an old man in the mid nineties when we were filling our fuel drums at the local airport. He was a scrawny little dude, but had such a powerful voice and presence that you couldn't help but listen. What follows is an excerpt from his journal from the period.
I went down late in the day on the 24th, struck in the engine I could not press on. My crate nosed over into shell hole, I came to much later. I could do nothing but hide, the madness of no-mans land reigns terror on those caught in it. Darkness fell, and an eternity lay before me as I plotted my way out. But something happened that night, a soul deafening silence fell upon the front, followed soon by a single voice in song. Not believing what I was hearing, I peered over the mangled wings covering my hole. I saw a single man, standing above the trenches, hands behind his back, singing as though his humanity depended on it. It filled me with a chill the night and snow could not give. Then more of his comrades stood to join him, and they walked onward, slowly and un-armed. I heard a heavy Scottish voice say; "Are ye a'right lad?". A highlander with his pipes was standing aside my hole, his hand extended. Without a thought, I responded: "Shaken, but not dead."
"It's Christmas, Lad. C'mon."
I stood, and took his hand for help from the hole. Around me I saw what could be described as a wonderous occasion. Men of all sides stood in the desolation, talking in what tongues they knew as though there was no war. There was no hate, no blood, no malice, only cordial respect and humanity. I wondered then, what we were fighting these men for. It struck me then, that each of us had a job to do, but tonight we all refused to do that job and simply be human. The voices rose again in song, and the piper played as we walked to the gathering. I couldn't help but feel that there was hope for us afterall, that we are all the same, no matter our uniforms, our rifles, or our futures. Tonight is Christmas, tonight we sing.
-Manfred von Schreiber.
Rest well, old friend.
Pure poetry ❤️
Dear Metal Cat Ava, I am on old man. I retired from the Army after 27 years, I fought in Bosnia, Iraq and Afghanistan. This wonderful song is very tough for me to watch too. I suggest you concentrate on the little interruption of joy those men had, instead of what surrounded it. Talk to each other, and always remember that the purpose of the monster in the story is to show you they can be opposed and defeated.
❤️thank you🤟
Oh how sweet, there may be tears! Does that also mean that she more or less understands. We've all cried 😥😥
Let Papa comfort you soon with big kisses sweet
🌸🎀💝 darling.
❤️🤘
Hey Ava, i'm a 31 year old guy and also i'm a history buff (someone who loves history and to learn about it) so i already knew the story when i watched the video but... they got me, i cried too.
Is very sad to see how these men realized they are not different beyond the different uniforms and stoped fighting and became friends for christmas just to be forced to go back to fight and probablly kill or injure there new friends... ok i'll stop typing now cause i feel like crying again 😅
I'm obssesed with watching reactions for this video and almost everyone cries.
The guys from the band said it took a long time to write this sung and it shows, they created a masterpiece!
I'm a new suscriber of the channel and i loving the videos, keep it up!
Grettings from Costa Rica!
Awesome thank you for the kind words🤘😃🤘
Wow!! And wow!! Metal Dad and Daughters that was one of your best reaction videos to date and when seeing the little get one get emotional I did too. I wish you Metal Dad and Daughters and your family have a blessed and safe Merry Christmas
Thank you very much! Merry Christmas 🤘😃🤘❤️
Seeing her reaction made me cry too. I grew up hearing stories like this and I'm glad they're being passed on to a new generation. People should know about these things, even an event as confusing as this one--happy and sad at the same time.
Oh my this reaction deserves a sub! You are a great dad and little Metal Cat Ava is a real trooper ! Thanks for this reaction video!
🤘😃🤘
There's no reason to be upset at yourself for crying and its ok to be sad. As someone who served 4 years in the US army and dealt with combat this video still makes me tear up no matter how many times I listen or watch it. I don't know who thought not showing emotion was a strong sign but they are very wrong.
Thank you!
great daughter 🥹 smart and empathic
It's okay to cry, because no matter how many times I have watched this and never cried.....I cried this time Ava 😭
❤️🤘
War knows only losers. It's always about politics or money or power.
Fortunately, the majority just want peace.
Hope that 2023 will really be the year of peace.
Everyone have a healthy 2023 and peace of course.
I know this has already been said several times already but there is no shame in crying, to be honest i was crying with you my friend. This song (as well as many other Sabaton songs) makes even grown men cry. Love from Sweden, keep up the great reaction videos!
Keep rocking, and keep... metaling?... or something like that... :)
Edit: Yes I am very much aware that I am terribly unfunny but I thought I was hilarious so idc! 😎
😂thank you for your funny comment 🤘😃🤘
Hey guy! Thanks so much for this reaction. And hey Metal Cat Ava, you’re so sweet for understanding and feeling this story. Bless you both.
🤘😃🤘
No worries i have seen tons of react channels get hit right in the feels with this one.
world war 1 my great grandfather James passed away in the fighting In belleau wood France and his brother Charlie lost his arm I always get emotional listening to this I think about my grandfather James and remember the stories my great grandfather Charlie would tell stories about growning up as farmers in Kansas in the late late 1800s here’s to James and Charlie R.I.P ❤🍻
Wow! Thank you for sharing that ❤️
this whas the best reaction to this song i ever seen love from denmark
Well thank you! It was also a very emotional one for my daughter! I want to do the yarnhub one for 23 christmas
Really strong song, and a really strong reaction. This song touches everybody, young as well as old .
Keep on watching Sabaton, you have so many good songs to see and hear.
🤘😃🤘💯
Out of everything in history the Christmas Truce doesn't get enough attention. The event although it lasted only a day stands as a testament to how pointless war is and how even normal soldiers don't carry the desire to kill each other. It brings out the tragedy and horror of war in a way nothing else does, by showing these two sides could have been great friends and allies if those in positions of power didn't force them to kill and die so senselessly.
💯
"I see you were a scabberd but no sword" "peace on earth good will toward men"
🤘
hope to see you again before christmas but if not have the best holiday ever
Same to you as well! 🤘😃🤘
Kids get it. War is horrible and we never seem too learn. peace and love from Norway.
😃🤟
This makes grown-ass men cry, there's no shame in it.
Amazing video!! You won me over with this one bro!! Now go give my sweet baby a hug from auntie!!
🤘😃🤘❤️
Oh my!!! Miss kitty ears was not alone . Such a very emotional video.. Beautiful song and wish we could have WORLD PEACE, but that will never happen. Merry Christmas metal dad and daughters and keep rocking. Give miss kitty ears a big HUG from all of us. 🤘🤘✌️✌️🌲🌲🎄🎄🇺🇸🇺🇸💜💜
🤘😃🤘❤️💯
There was an actual cross put up during the first world war, it wasn't that one but as far as I'm aware it's still up to this day.
I feel you. It is sad for me too.
bless you ava
A lesson here Ladies and Gentlemen: WAR IS AN UGLY THING.
💯
I hope you will react to Sabaton a lifetime of war both the swedish and english version.
Happy new year 🎉🎊🎈
Considering that you and yours watch Sabaton, you've probably encountered this already, but she's going to ask questions that even our best poets and philosophers can't answer. Every one of us do after this sort of film. Questions like why do we go to war. How can men who played and sang and even shared Christmas gifts were trying to fight each other.
💯
Ну как Вам сказать! Это в этом смыл Запада! Не стоит выдавать окопный момент за чудо! Если бы политики были умнее не было войны! И даже сейчас Запад! Готов сидеть в окопах и вспоминать!
Well, how can I tell you! This is the essence of the West! Do not give out a trench moment for a miracle! If politicians were smarter there would be no war! And even now the West! Ready to sit in the trenches and remember!
metal cat ava dont be sad i am 53 and crying just like you it is only human . ps best reations channel
Thank you 🤘😃
❤️🙏❤️
"no that's soccer", What one hurt for a European, haha
Hope you react to Sabaton Lady of the Dark the new visual video release.
Soon🤘😃🤘
NeXT pls…. Live from Göteborg… Sabaton-En livstid i krig. ❤
check out devil dogs ... they also have a history channel sabaton history that channel talks about the history of the song
good morning
Love the reaction. Sabaton's productions are insane... The unkillable soldier is quite big too. I must do a shoutout to Sabaton guitarist who made a great cover on this song. ruclips.net/video/qYQus1gDimI/видео.html
🤘😃🤘
Aww Lil Metal Cat, its good to show emotions , especially on big events!
If you guys are wanting some diff music I suggest Home Free , they are an amazing Acapella group!
And I think you would both enjoy their rendition of Grandma got Run over by a Reindeer 🦌 😍
🤘😃🤘❤️
DAD!!!!! Are you kidding me!???? Have you not watched the previous videos!!?????? That's NOT a hamster wheel turning in that precious mind!!!! That's a 427 big block ready to eat the hell out of all comers!!! Please stop belittling this young lady! Let her spread her wings so she can fly!
🤘😂🤘
Go to Tommy Johansson ( the guitarrist ) Chanel and React to his christmas songs 😊
Excuse me but can you please react to no bullets Fly but do not skip the end
Great reaction, but please, regardless of what you get recommended, DO NOT watch the official video for Fields of Verdun with your daughters (at least, not until you watch it and decide for yourself what to do). If you do that song, go with the live version (song is amazing and worth listening). A lot of us cried watching this the first time. Merry Christmas
Thank you sounds good🤘😃🤘
🤗🍒🤘🏻😘
🤘🇸🇪🇺🇸🤘
🤘💯😃
As she knows these are true stories, they might be too much for her to see the visuals of the songs. War stories aren't easy even for adults to watch less for a young child. Hopefully you talk it through with her after these reactions.
💯 agreed
ya better pass on unkillable soldier too graphic
So you think it's right to let your little child see something like that. Especially the opening sequence?! absolutely irresponsible!
👍
