Sabaton are the English name for the boots knights wore. The metallic boots allows you to move your toes but not your angles, ideal for horseback riding.
Well done Alex and George. These guys are a different animal, the Red Baron also from the Great Tour is a fine choice. Then again I would suggest Night Witches or No Bullets Fly - the animated story videos for these.
Sabaton really come alive when you see them live. The thing I love most is how you can see no matter how big they have got their still on stage to have fun with almost child like wonderment when fans join in .
One of my favorite Sabaton songs, for many years. I don't speak Swedish, but I learned to sing it and I could have joined in that crowd, had I been there. One day...
You should check out their brand new song, released today, "SABATON - Christmas Truce (Official Music Video)" about the Christmas truce of 1914 in WW1. Floor Jansen (From Nightwish, Hannes' wife as people probably have told you a thousand times) of also sings in the end of that song. It´s epic and emotional, a really beautiful Christmas song.
Great video! One thing to remember with Sabaton: it's worth watching their Official Lyric Videos, they are always higher quality than you'd expect and include a lot of additional information about the song
Red Barron on Night witches Live next with night witches do a double header of the animated story followed by the live version. For another IKEA banger it is important that you listen to nanowar of steel and valhalleuja.
sv.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lista_%C3%B6ver_svenska_krig We swedish have a long long history of war. And this song very emotional thinking of our ancestors even if we the recent time have had peace.
Sabaton is amazing band...The voice of Joaquin is powerful....Hannes Van Dahl is a great drummer is married with The Queen Floor Jansen . Powerful couple🤘❤
@@TheThamesmen Freja's four now, actually! Last year, Floor did a Q&A livestream on her Instagram and Hannes came in for a bit - someone asked if their daughter would be a singer like Mum or a drummer like Dad, and Hannes said something to the effect of, "She's the child of two rockers, she'll end up a lawyer because that's the only way she'll be able to rebel." (Probably not an exact quote, but that was the gist of it.)
I know you touched a bit upon it but here is some info. This song is about the Thirty Years' War that dominated central Europe in the 17th century (1618-1648). To this day it is one of the longest and bloodiest wars in history, with the death toll falling between 4 million and 8 million. Many of the fatalities were not even from active warfare, but famine and disease also plagued the area, upping the casualties that much more. Casualties reached such a high number that many Swedish men were forced to fight when they had barely reached manhood, and sometimes even before then. Which really makes the title of the song ("A Lifetime of War" in English) hit a little harder. Men basically spent their entire lives at war, no chance for a peaceful life. The was about the battle between Catholics and Protestants, and at some point during the war almost every major player/Country in Europe was a part of it. This Swedish version of the song tells the story from a Swedish soldier's point of view. You should also check out the English version; it is not a direct translation from the Swedish, but it rather tells the story of the war from the perspective of the outside people, those not involved directly in the war but were affected by it. The lyrics hits hard, but it also shows that even when times change, new technology comes, one thing remains constant and that is the horrors of the war, both those who fall in it and those who survive and have to live with nightmare every day (ptsd). Greetings from Denmark
to add to this, The Swedish nobility were charged with giving men to the army. They took in orphans and poor kids from the streets and raised them basically as cannon fodder. The line "who misses me?" basically means no one, no one misses a poor orphan boy whom at 13 was sent off to die in a war far way from home. Many were born in battle, lived their life in battle and died in battle, side by side with their fathers, borthers and cousins.
As so many of Sabatons songs and videos it gives me chills every time. And this crowd. Wow!! Shortly after Hannes van Dahl (Floor's husband) joined Sabaton in 2013 he got an e-mail from Pär (the bassist) in which he asked him what the measures of his drumkit were. Hannes said "about 3x3 m". Got a mail back "no... the exact measures". Oh..OK. But why and what for? Then Pär send him a blueprint of the tank! I would have loved to have seen Hannes's face!🤣 Don't know how they set it up, and I don't know if it's true, but Hannes said in an interview that it works like an IKEA package!😂 Cheers guys. Have a nice day. Oh and "The Red Baron"...🤘
Yes it's split up in in sections so it's easier to put up, but still it is a Tank that the stage crew has to haul up and down from the stage at every concert. It's one of the 2 Tanks that Sabaton have. / B.
Gosh, just watching this video and listening to the crowd sing the lyrics made my skin go into goosebumps. Might have to look for a show to attend in the future!
10:28 there are tommy Johansson, what you dont know he sings world class and got so many talents tommy match Queen and Elton John as well Josh groben, like you raise me up 1 octave Challenge, the sabaton family are big, Chris marriage to floor jansen as you allready know, but tommy he got his own band majastic (ReinXeed before) as well tommy easy can go world solo
Red Baron live is an awesome video to react to. These guys have so many great songs and really put effort in to their videos and live gigs. Their history channel is really great as well, they have at least one episode about the history behind each of their songs. I guarantee you will have a good time discovering this band.
thx for doing this awesome track, i shared your reaction to the Nightdreamers Reacticide Discord so more ppls. will follow soon.... looking forward to your Red Baron Live reaction...grts from a dutch Nightwisher in Sjermanie and pls stay safe !!
@@TheThamesmen Oh yeah, "No Bullets Fly" is awesome song to react to, and the animated version just brings another great layer to it! There's also a new song, released yesterday, called "Christmas Truce". The title gives away what it's about, an the song together with official music video just straight up brought tears to my eyes, you have to react to it!
The Thirty Year's War actually involved several European empires and kingdoms. I've come to say that it should be considered the first world war (and that the Seven Year's War should be considered the second).
The only reason I think the Thirty Year's War isn't considered a World War is because it was mainly in Europe particularly the Holy Roman Empire. The Seven Year's War I can see being called the first World War because it was fought in Europe, Asia and North America.
To call it a world war would be wrong as it was a war between kingdoms and other type of rulers divided by faith ( catholic and protestants) in Northern Europe. It went on from 1618 until 1648 which also means that a lot of countries of today wasn’t even founded, Sweden was at that time a major force with the Baltic Sea more or less an inland sea to Sweden. USA as a Country was still 128 years away as this war ended with peace treaties signed in Osnabrück and Münster in what today is Germany. Regards from south Sweden
Loved it! There's actually a theory circling around the dark sides of the interwebs you know. It simply proposes that there's not a single bad song made by Sabaton. I think it's pretty sound. Try some older stuff like '40:1', 'Uprising' or 'Ghost Division' from Woodstock in Poland (550k-750k people in the audience). And yeah... live long and prosper guys! Greetings from Dover, UK.
I really love how fun you have together. Warms my cold heart. Also...THE INTRO... deserves an award for coolest retro throwback! Well Done! Much Love 💙💛💙
First of all, great reaction!! Second, i know you would love Sabatons latests video ”Christmas trues” Third, the 40-years war was a very bloody war. Basically it was between the protestant countries and the holy roman empire. It involved most countries in Europe and was devastating for the civilians. Sweden took a lead role in this was with our king Gustavos Adolfi (Gustaf II Adolf). The bloodiest war if you count people killed was second world war. But if you look at the percentage based on the population at that time this war was much worse. In WWI about 3% of the population (military and civilians) in the involved countries died. In WWII about 6-10% died. In the 30-years war about 20-25% of the population died
Great reaction!🤘 I highly recommend "Red Baron" from the same tour. The footage is from the show in Berlin. Btw, the concert in Wembley Arena was sold out on this tour... 😉 They're really awesome live! I also have another suggestion for you history buffs... "Blood of Bannockburn" by Sabaton (official lyric video). I don't think that one needs any further explanation... 😉🤘 It's another catchy banger!
I was at this show (sitting somewhere in the middle of the platform to the left from the view of the stage) It was a truly awesome night, sadly this was just before covid broke out and started canceling shows ( I had for once gotten tickets for around 5 shows and 1 festival that year and this was the only one I got to attend) Just before this clip started Joakim (the singer) asked everyone in the crowd to hold up their cellphones since no once carries around a lighter anymore.
Can never get enough of reactions to this song. This was from the last show I saw live, less than a week before *the thing* broke out in Europe and fucked everything up. 18 months later, concerts are finally starting up again in Sweden. Anyway, great reaction. You got a sub.
Sabaton ft Radio tapok The Attack of the Dead Men live Tapok is an Russian guy who do covers of Sabatons songs in russian, this song they performed in Russia
@@TheThamesmen And also "Defence of Moscow" - it's a cover song of Radio Tapok's "Battle of Moscow", which was a song recorded in Sabaton's style. Sabaton bassist Pär Sundström states: "May 9 is celebrated as V-Day in Russia, the day to commemorate the victory over the Nazis in WW2. This year we participate in the memory of this event by releasing a song dedicated to the brave men who fought in the battle of Moscow. This track was originally written in Russian by our friend Radio Tapok. It's a very strong song and we thought it made sense that Sabaton should give it a try to make a honorable cover of this song. We love to surprise everyone, and this is a great surprise".
82nd all the Way is about Medal of Honor Sgt York in WW1. Amaranth toured with Sabaton for a while and did a cover of it. There is a video of both together playing it live. Triple header :D
Oh holy fucking shit! I remember that old logo/Intro! This takes me back quite a few decades, and not in a bad way!! Came here for brits reacting to Sabaton, but now I find myself revisiting old BBC shows!! Love it, or as Rik Mayall would have said: Aw-right! Let´s not try to be complete arseholes about this.. Right?:D On topic: Sabaton kicks arse when it comes to the good old power metal! Pure scandimetal!!
@@TheThamesmen Cheers Alex and rock on, both you and the BBC!! I also want to take this opportunity to thank Britain for the glory that is Iron Maiden!!
People like yourselves got me into Sabaton in the first place. You should start a podcast, because I could hear you waffle for hours, honestly. Do the Sabaton Starterpack! You've already done Bismarck and this, so: No Bullets Fly (the animated *story* version, very important, also: Alex will cry), Uprising (the official music video), The Great War, Night Witches (the animated story version) and the Royal Guard (the official music video). ⠀⠀...then there's always Ghost Division (live) Swedish Pagans (live), Carolus Rex, Devil Dogs and 22nd All the way (+ the Sabaton history episode of it, it's reaaally short and positively insane). I'd recommend that one checks out the official music video or lyric video BEFORE the live performances. I also love the English version of Carolus Rex, even if I get that the Swedish version is more impactful to the Swedes (the Swedish lyrics are richer, too - after all, it's their native language). The fact that you're so entertaining to listen to would make discussions about Sabaton history episodes hilarious. Don't feed the beast too quickly, though; you'll be doing Sabaton reactions until you die now, so take a breather now and then. Sabaton fans are really... Let's call them "committed" and "enthusiastic". You've earned yourselves a sub, gentlemen. Cheers!
@@TheThamesmen I mean, why not? Ignorance is supposed to be bliss and some people really enjoy flaunting their bliss. I think you'd pull that off perfectly, haha.
@@TheThamesmen Yes, I'm hilarious! By the way: Sabaton dropped a brand new track the other day; Christmas Truce, and the music video is already up! Maybe something you'd be interested in reacting to, as well.
I hope you will also be able to see a few songs from the concert from the Woodstock festival in Poland. I especially recommend: Ghost Divison, Uprising and 40:1 (the last one can be problematic, because it was taken off from YT, the only way is a movie from the whole concert and there, if you set it to 1:20:32, a verbal introduction and then a song begins, it is also worth staying a bit after it to see how crowd that came to the concert sing the Polish national anthem.)
Enjoyed this video very much. It was helped greatly by the lyrics so we knew what was said and could follow the story. The special effects were great but did not overtake the music but enhanced it. Well done.
Morning The Thamesmen. Thanks for another great video reaction. Sabaton are a great live band and they are touring next year (The Tour To End All Tours) so get yourself along to one if and when they do North America- you'll not be disappointed. Camouflage trousers are mandatory btw. For getting your war nerd on, I'd recommend 'No Bullets Fly' ruclips.net/video/dslO-3GgenY/видео.html as your next watch- it gives you an idea of just how far what they do as a band goes and how far music can reach. Keep up the good work and have a most excellent day.
The 30 Years´ War, was a religous war between protestants and catholics beginning in 1618 and ending 1648. Combined with this war are some other conflicts, like the last phase of the dutch independence war against Spain (1568-1648), a war between Spain and France and between France and Austria. Leader of the catholic league was Austria, leader of the protestant union was first the Duke of the Palatinate, then the King of Denmark and then the King of Sweden (Gustavus Adolphus the Great, Sabaton is a swedish band !) Main battlefield was the Holy Roman Empire (approx. Germany, Netherlands, Belgium and Austria today). Since it was mainly a religious war, the war parties fight to the bitter end and conscript every man to the army they could find, this could also be 14, 15 or 16 years old boys. In this time a soldier could be away from home for years, this means no contact to home -- modern telecommunication did not exist--. This situation is described in the Song. After the war, more than one third of the german population was dead. More than 50% of the land was devasted. In 1648 the parties signed a peace in Münster, Westphalia, (ü=ue) not because there was a victor, but because they are out of the ressources (men and money) to sustain the war. The peace cemented the independence of the protestantic faith, it also lays the fundament of the modern international law.
The 30 th war was between 1618-1648. It was between the prothestants and the katolics in Germany. The Swedish king was Gustav II ( the lion from the north).
Ok, bad timing from me considering this is a sabaton vidio, but I would love to surgest another one, a music vidio released a few hours ago - christmas truce. Apparently there first one about peace rather then war (oh well.. for a day..). The song is not there most bombastic one, far from it, but the vidio was amazing and at one moment my eyes had an alergic rection and started leaking. Its on there youtube Chanel, ruclips.net/video/HPdHkHslFIU/видео.html
Pro tip: Yesterday they released a new single (and video) from their upcoming album. The song is called "Christmas Truce" about the infamous real life story from World War 1 when soldiers on opposing sides pretty much celebrated christmas together, hung out, played soccer, exhanged prisoners and gifts etc. The song and video is incredible. I suggest you react to that one.
I really suggest that you react to the song "Great war", the officialvideo. There you also can se the involvement of the tank that the drums are set on 😀. Liked and subscribed for further Sabaton.
"30 years war? Must be a Swedish thing" More like a European thing, almost everyone was involved. Sweden, Denmark, France, Holy roman empire (Germany), Spain, the Dutch, Romania but also used mercenaries from all over like Croatian cavalry and Scottish troops. Britain was one of the few european countries that didnt join which is probably why you guys never heard about it. (unless its a skit by Fry and Laurie ruclips.net/video/c-WO73Dh7rY/видео.html )
another bismarck design flaw was the cabling from the firecontrol(tells the turrets and guns how to position themselves) to the turrets was above the armour and got shot by the british shortly afterwards rendering the bismarck virtually useless. Also shout out to the polish crewed destroyer who challenged the bismarck with the following signal "Come fight me I'm a pole". Keep in mind there bismarck was about fourty times heavier then said destroyer. For other sabaton songs Fields of verdun, The last battle, resist and bite, Nucvlear attack, Back in control, wolfpack, midway and Devil dogs. Also shout out to Christmas Truce
Interesting how the smallest thing can be your downfall. I suppose that is the definition of an Achilles’ heel? Thanks for the top tips we appreciate it
The recoil of it guns was also a problem, it disturbed or destroyed it own radars. Another often foreseen factor was that instead of using the Kiel Chanel it traveled north close to the Swedish coast and was spotted by the Swedish light cruiser Gotland. Well some sneaky Swedes told the British everything so they directly knew it was heading out and with what company. Pro British parts of the Swedish navy had already told the britts a lot about the ship from their month long visits down at the German shipyards also.
More suggestions: No bullets fly, Defence of Moscow, Devil Dogs to name a few, they are all good but it's impossible to sit still when listening to the last one - that's extremely catchy and is about how the US Marines (allegedly) got their nick name "Devil Dogs" in 1918 at the Battle of Belleu Wood.
The lyrics are not perfectly translated.but it gives a gist of of it. God damn Google translation. For example; war "might" destroy a man or "could" destroy a man. Another example, So see me for what I am a husband a friend, father and son. Etc. it goes on. Anyway it hits you more if you know about the thirty year war and that the Swedish soldiers went out to war with their fellow men from the same village together. So fathers went out and when their sons became fighting age, it's their turn, again fighting with the people you grew up with. I hope I made some sense with all this rambling.
Check out Saboton’s album, The Great War ( about WW1) it’s epic! Great job as always. Stay Safe Rock On from this old Metal/rock ( including super nerd).Rock On Stay Safe!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
The song is about a soldier and his story and at that time many formed a family early and those who did not have money were called up for the war at 16 or if it was 18 years old and were married with children then the soldier was both father, husband and son to its parents, but the song has a different meaning in the English version and I recommend that you check out the story on their second channel. Then I want to recommend that you watch 82nd all the way from Oslo but also check out the story behind first and there is a music video and a cover with another band that you can also watch if you want to make a longer video with all 4 if you want compare 82nd All The Way - Alvin York - Sabaton History 029 [Official] ruclips.net/video/bT2tlq6noOk/видео.html SABATON - 82nd All the Way (Official Lyric Video) ruclips.net/video/ZgfCUxFE7XA/видео.html AMARANTHE - 82nd All The Way (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) ruclips.net/video/XhepwtKR5lg/видео.html SABATON - 82nd All The Way ft.

Great reaction guys. Was that a great live performance or what? And don't feel bad about not knowing much about the thirty years war, I don't think you are alone in that department (it was a while ago after all...). Besides, that's easily remedied by watching the corresponding Sabaton History channel video...👍 As for your next Sabaton reaction, my suggestion would be "Night Witches" - animated STORY video (it's the one that's 7.22 minutes long) it's GREAT! The subject matter in that one is the simply awesome Russian all female WW2 588th night bomber regiment. Comprised of girls as young as 17, that kicked some serious Nazi butt in outdated bi-planes. Greetings from the land of reindeer banger's... Mmm, reindeer banger's, the food of the old Norse gods!😁
Thank you for the great recommendations. We really enjoyed that track. There will be more for sure. I hope all is well in your world I’ll see you with the next track
I Think its bit funny swedes sing a song like this, a nation which has not bee in war over two hundred years. The last one was when riket lost Finland to Russians. We call ourselves a front guard of Sweden here in Finland. Heja!

Great reaction! Love the song. I would say that you should be careful with spreading accusations even if they are alleged, at least if you are not up to speed on the story. I'm not going to recite it here because I don't want to turn your comment section into a cesspool of arguing, but there have been quite some development so if you are interested read up and draw your own conclusions.
Hi John (alex here) it was a poor attempt at humour and true, I shouldn't have touched that area. I'm not that interested in their life and am old enough to know that most things are 50/50 - Ignore me and point taken, wise words!! Be well

Nice reaction. should have used the video i recommended tho. Better translations of the lyrics and also explains the 30 year old war in the beginning. I honestly cringe everytime i see the Captions on the official video. Dont get me wrong. its better than nothing. But it still feels like a middleschoolers school project who translated it. But yeah. No bullets Fly Animated version. has a wholesome twist at the end as well
As a Swede. Reading the translation from "För kriget det kan, förgöra en man" to "Becuase of the war, destroy a man" it's super cringe on how bad the translation is. Not even close to what he sings. Even Google translate did a better translation and that says something.

(Probably not an exact quote, but that was the gist of it.)
Joakim*
I know you touched a bit upon it but here is some info.
This song is about the Thirty Years' War that dominated central Europe in the 17th century (1618-1648). To this day it is one of the longest and bloodiest wars in history, with the death toll falling between 4 million and 8 million. Many of the fatalities were not even from active warfare, but famine and disease also plagued the area, upping the casualties that much more. Casualties reached such a high number that many Swedish men were forced to fight when they had barely reached manhood, and sometimes even before then. Which really makes the title of the song ("A Lifetime of War" in English) hit a little harder. Men basically spent their entire lives at war, no chance for a peaceful life.
The was about the battle between Catholics and Protestants, and at some point during the war almost every major player/Country in Europe was a part of it.
This Swedish version of the song tells the story from a Swedish soldier's point of view. You should also check out the English version; it is not a direct translation from the Swedish, but it rather tells the story of the war from the perspective of the outside people, those not involved directly in the war but were affected by it.
The lyrics hits hard, but it also shows that even when times change, new technology comes, one thing remains constant and that is the horrors of the war, both those who fall in it and those who survive and have to live with nightmare every day (ptsd).
Greetings from Denmark
OMG Denmark - That's brilliant and I learned allot. Many thanks!!!
to add to this, The Swedish nobility were charged with giving men to the army. They took in orphans and poor kids from the streets and raised them basically as cannon fodder. The line "who misses me?" basically means no one, no one misses a poor orphan boy whom at 13 was sent off to die in a war far way from home. Many were born in battle, lived their life in battle and died in battle, side by side with their fathers, borthers and cousins.

WOW
@@TheThamesmen - 14.000 in Concert configuration according to Wikipedia. / B.
En livstid i krig means A life-time in war in swedish. The song is about the 30-year war that ended with Westphalia treaty
A life-time in war. A single i in our language i in. Jag is I.
@@thebronywiking kom på att jag skrivit fel själv också 😄
we know nothing.. thanks for this
@@TheThamesmen the 30-years war was between catholics and protestants. Basically we was against the power of the Pope and the Germanic Kaiser.
As so many of Sabatons songs and videos it gives me chills every time. And this crowd. Wow!! Shortly after Hannes van Dahl (Floor's husband) joined Sabaton in 2013 he got an e-mail from Pär (the bassist) in which he asked him what the measures of his drumkit were. Hannes said "about 3x3 m". Got a mail back "no... the exact measures". Oh..OK. But why and what for? Then Pär send him a blueprint of the tank! I would have loved to have seen Hannes's face!🤣 Don't know how they set it up, and I don't know if it's true, but Hannes said in an interview that it works like an IKEA package!😂 Cheers guys. Have a nice day. Oh and "The Red Baron"...🤘
HA HA!!!
Yes it's split up in in sections so it's easier to put up, but still it is a Tank that the stage crew has to haul up and down from the stage at every concert. It's one of the 2 Tanks that Sabaton have. / B.
Gosh, just watching this video and listening to the crowd sing the lyrics made my skin go into goosebumps. Might have to look for a show to attend in the future!
Lets go!
I’ve seen them 3 times if you ever get the chance go go go 👍
10:28 there are tommy Johansson, what you dont know he sings world class and got so many talents tommy match Queen and Elton John as well Josh groben, like you raise me up 1 octave Challenge, the sabaton family are big, Chris marriage to floor jansen as you allready know, but tommy he got his own band majastic (ReinXeed before) as well tommy easy can go world solo
😢 every time I hear this song, especially with this live performance.
The lyrics hit me deep.
I know... it makes my skin tingle
👍 Great to see you as always guys, you are Great! /Johan of sweden 🤘
Thans Johan from Swededn from Alex from America
Red Baron live is an awesome video to react to. These guys have so many great songs and really put effort in to their videos and live gigs. Their history channel is really great as well, they have at least one episode about the history behind each of their songs. I guarantee you will have a good time discovering this band.
Thanks and thanks for being here!!
Great reaction, thank you :) Greetings from Finland
Hello Finland thank you for being here
thx for doing this awesome track, i shared your reaction to the Nightdreamers Reacticide Discord so more ppls. will follow soon.... looking forward to your Red Baron Live reaction...grts from a dutch Nightwisher in Sjermanie and pls stay safe !!
Awesome thank you!
Next should be No bullets fly, animated!
Noted - Thanks!!! Thanks for being here and supporting us!
@@TheThamesmen Oh yeah, "No Bullets Fly" is awesome song to react to, and the animated version just brings another great layer to it!
There's also a new song, released yesterday, called "Christmas Truce". The title gives away what it's about, an the song together with official music video just straight up brought tears to my eyes, you have to react to it!
The Thirty Year's War actually involved several European empires and kingdoms. I've come to say that it should be considered the first world war (and that the Seven Year's War should be considered the second).
Wow.... cool
The only reason I think the Thirty Year's War isn't considered a World War is because it was mainly in Europe particularly the Holy Roman Empire.
The Seven Year's War I can see being called the first World War because it was fought in Europe, Asia and North America.
@@HALberdier17 I can support that.
To call it a world war would be wrong as it was a war between kingdoms and other type of rulers divided by faith ( catholic and protestants) in Northern Europe. It went on from 1618 until 1648 which also means that a lot of countries of today wasn’t even founded, Sweden was at that time a major force with the Baltic Sea more or less an inland sea to Sweden. USA as a Country was still 128 years away as this war ended with peace treaties signed in Osnabrück and Münster in what today is Germany.
Regards from south Sweden
It was a war between protostant and catolism , Sweden was an empire at this time
you two are the "monty python" of reactions! i love it :D I WANT MORE! :D red baron is a great choice :D
More to come!
Great! And now do their newly released Christmas Truce! :D ( no command, it's my heart dreaming)
I think that might be really interesting because the Christmas truce is a crazy story
Loved it! There's actually a theory circling around the dark sides of the interwebs you know. It simply proposes that there's not a single bad song made by Sabaton. I think it's pretty sound. Try some older stuff like '40:1', 'Uprising' or 'Ghost Division' from Woodstock in Poland (550k-750k people in the audience). And yeah... live long and prosper guys! Greetings from Dover, UK.
I really love how fun you have together. Warms my cold heart.
Also...THE INTRO... deserves an award for coolest retro throwback! Well Done!
Much Love 💙💛💙
Thanks so much!! We love you!!!
“ No bullets fly” animated video! Check that out, it’s great and really emotional…
Cool - Noted, Thanks for being here and supporting us!
I love Sabaton, but I haven't heard this song, it's amazing. Thanks for the reaction. Hello from Russia.
Hello Russia from San Francisco
First of all, great reaction!!
Second, i know you would love Sabatons latests video ”Christmas trues”
Third, the 40-years war was a very bloody war. Basically it was between the protestant countries and the holy roman empire. It involved most countries in Europe and was devastating for the civilians. Sweden took a lead role in this was with our king Gustavos Adolfi (Gustaf II Adolf). The bloodiest war if you count people killed was second world war. But if you look at the percentage based on the population at that time this war was much worse. In WWI about 3% of the population (military and civilians) in the involved countries died. In WWII about 6-10% died. In the 30-years war about 20-25% of the population died
Saving this for Xmas Speciall!!!!
@@TheThamesmen excellent idea, looking forward to that. :)
Must sees by Sabaton are:
"Ghost Divison" and "40:1" live from Woodstock in Poland
The lyric video of "No Bullets fly". But have your tissues ready!
:) Will do!!
Need to hear NIGHT WITCHES this is about Russian women pilots who attacked the Germans at night
The Animated Story Version!
No way - really!!
Great reaction!🤘 I highly recommend "Red Baron" from the same tour. The footage is from the show in Berlin. Btw, the concert in Wembley Arena was sold out on this tour... 😉 They're really awesome live! I also have another suggestion for you history buffs... "Blood of Bannockburn" by Sabaton (official lyric video). I don't think that one needs any further explanation... 😉🤘 It's another catchy banger!
Gret thanks! Thanks for being here and supporting us!
I was at this show (sitting somewhere in the middle of the platform to the left from the view of the stage) It was a truly awesome night, sadly this was just before covid broke out and started canceling shows ( I had for once gotten tickets for around 5 shows and 1 festival that year and this was the only one I got to attend) Just before this clip started Joakim (the singer) asked everyone in the crowd to hold up their cellphones since no once carries around a lighter anymore.
I see you!!
Can never get enough of reactions to this song. This was from the last show I saw live, less than a week before *the thing* broke out in Europe and fucked everything up. 18 months later, concerts are finally starting up again in Sweden. Anyway, great reaction. You got a sub.
Thanks Magnus - Be well and we survived that THANG! Be proud! Have a great gig
Great reaction, thanks. I was at that gig... Im so glad it was recorded. Hope you do more Sabaton. Cheers!
Oh definitely we are going to do more. We love it
Sabaton ft Radio tapok The Attack of the Dead Men live
Tapok is an Russian guy who do covers of Sabatons songs in russian, this song they performed in Russia
Wow seems one hell of a combination. Thanks
@@TheThamesmen And also "Defence of Moscow" - it's a cover song of Radio Tapok's "Battle of Moscow", which was a song recorded in Sabaton's style. Sabaton bassist Pär Sundström states: "May 9 is celebrated as V-Day in Russia, the day to commemorate the victory over the Nazis in WW2. This year we participate in the memory of this event by releasing a song dedicated to the brave men who fought in the battle of Moscow. This track was originally written in Russian by our friend Radio Tapok. It's a very strong song and we thought it made sense that Sabaton should give it a try to make a honorable cover of this song. We love to surprise everyone, and this is a great surprise".
82nd all the Way is about Medal of Honor Sgt York in WW1. Amaranth toured with Sabaton for a while and did a cover of it.
There is a video of both together playing it live. Triple header :D
Oh holy fucking shit! I remember that old logo/Intro! This takes me back quite a few decades, and not in a bad way!! Came here for brits reacting to Sabaton, but now I find myself revisiting old BBC shows!! Love it, or as Rik Mayall would have said: Aw-right! Let´s not try to be complete arseholes about this.. Right?:D
On topic: Sabaton kicks arse when it comes to the good old power metal! Pure scandimetal!!
Ha ha. Classic. We are the light entertainment budget TV from the 70s. Be well. Cheers Alex
@@TheThamesmen Cheers Alex and rock on, both you and the BBC!! I also want to take this opportunity to thank Britain for the glory that is Iron Maiden!!
People like yourselves got me into Sabaton in the first place. You should start a podcast, because I could hear you waffle for hours, honestly. Do the Sabaton Starterpack! You've already done Bismarck and this, so: No Bullets Fly (the animated *story* version, very important, also: Alex will cry), Uprising (the official music video), The Great War, Night Witches (the animated story version) and the Royal Guard (the official music video).
⠀⠀...then there's always Ghost Division (live) Swedish Pagans (live), Carolus Rex, Devil Dogs and 22nd All the way (+ the Sabaton history episode of it, it's reaaally short and positively insane).
I'd recommend that one checks out the official music video or lyric video BEFORE the live performances. I also love the English version of Carolus Rex, even if I get that the Swedish version is more impactful to the Swedes (the Swedish lyrics are richer, too - after all, it's their native language). The fact that you're so entertaining to listen to would make discussions about Sabaton history episodes hilarious. Don't feed the beast too quickly, though; you'll be doing Sabaton reactions until you die now, so take a breather now and then. Sabaton fans are really... Let's call them "committed" and "enthusiastic".
You've earned yourselves a sub, gentlemen. Cheers!
We've though about a podcast called "We are Stupid " and discuss shit we know nothing about! Thanks for being here and supporting us!
@@TheThamesmen I mean, why not? Ignorance is supposed to be bliss and some people really enjoy flaunting their bliss. I think you'd pull that off perfectly, haha.
@@FamousGirlfriend HA HA~!~~
@@TheThamesmen Yes, I'm hilarious! By the way: Sabaton dropped a brand new track the other day; Christmas Truce, and the music video is already up! Maybe something you'd be interested in reacting to, as well.
Joakim conducting a choir of thousands...
:) Can you imagine standing there
Wow, absolutely great song. Thank you for another great reaction, G & A!
Glad you enjoyed it and thanks Spartan!!!! We just called you out on a Fireside special appearing later today on Pateron!!
@@TheThamesmen You guys are too kind, but you didn't have to do that. Just showing my appreciation. Be well!
@@SpartanGuy83 you have not heard it yet😀
@@TheThamesmen HUh? I sure did.
@@SpartanGuy83 the fireside chat? Should not be visible yet?
Keep up and keep doing this. I love it👍😊
You are right. We need to do
More Sabaton soon. Thanks for the reminder
I hope you will also be able to see a few songs from the concert from the Woodstock festival in Poland. I especially recommend: Ghost Divison, Uprising and 40:1 (the last one can be problematic, because it was taken off from YT, the only way is a movie from the whole concert and there, if you set it to 1:20:32, a verbal introduction and then a song begins, it is also worth staying a bit after it to see how crowd that came to the concert sing the Polish national anthem.)
Brilliant!! THANKS
Enjoyed this video very much. It was helped greatly by the lyrics so we knew what was said and could follow the story. The special effects were great but did not overtake the music but enhanced it. Well done.
Glad you enjoyed it!
“War Is A Racket, And Always Have Been” General Smedley Butler MOH
Noted O Bud!!! Be well!
There is an animated (fan made?) video of "No Bullets Fly" that I think you'd enjoy.
(ssshhhh between us.... just recorded and out soon)
Morning The Thamesmen. Thanks for another great video reaction. Sabaton are a great live band and they are touring next year (The Tour To End All Tours) so get yourself along to one if and when they do North America- you'll not be disappointed. Camouflage trousers are mandatory btw. For getting your war nerd on, I'd recommend 'No Bullets Fly' ruclips.net/video/dslO-3GgenY/видео.html as your next watch- it gives you an idea of just how far what they do as a band goes and how far music can reach. Keep up the good work and have a most excellent day.
Keep an eye on the channel and we may well release that video reaction soon!
Another good one from this tour DVD is "Night Witches." I'd call it a Koenigsegg banger.
Thanks and will check it out!!
Huge WW2 history buff was stationed in Berlin in 70s Traveled to Austria went to the Eagles Nest. Love these guys

Love it, love you, just want to mention the V-sign bit is a myth:)
Never let the truth stand in the way of a good story!
@@TheThamesmen Good point. I retract my previous statement.
So great reaction. I have tickets for Sabaton at Falun 12 of february in Sweden. It will be great dudes. Take care and thanks for a great channel.
Have fun!
its an epic band with meaningful lyrics
The 30 Years´ War, was a religous war between protestants and catholics beginning in 1618 and ending 1648. Combined with this war are some other conflicts, like the last phase of the dutch independence war against Spain (1568-1648), a war between Spain and France and between France and Austria. Leader of the catholic league was Austria, leader of the protestant union was first the Duke of the Palatinate, then the King of Denmark and then the King of Sweden (Gustavus Adolphus the Great, Sabaton is a swedish band !) Main battlefield was the Holy Roman Empire (approx. Germany, Netherlands, Belgium and Austria today). Since it was mainly a religious war, the war parties fight to the bitter end and conscript every man to the army they could find, this could also be 14, 15 or 16 years old boys. In this time a soldier could be away from home for years, this means no contact to home -- modern telecommunication did not exist--. This situation is described in the Song.
After the war, more than one third of the german population was dead. More than 50% of the land was devasted.
In 1648 the parties signed a peace in Münster, Westphalia, (ü=ue) not because there was a victor, but because they are out of the ressources (men and money) to sustain the war. The peace cemented the independence of the protestantic faith, it also lays the fundament of the modern international law.
Live and learn - Thanks
Keep up the great stuff
Thank you we try
No worries mate
The Brits sense of history is reflected in the Americans..
Yep that is probably true
The 30 th war was between 1618-1648. It was between the prothestants and the katolics in Germany. The Swedish king was Gustav II ( the lion from the north).
Dam Catholics.... actually dam religion
RIP every Swede or Finnish who ever fought to defend the Swedish mother country.
Well said I’m pretty much true for everyone involved in pointless war
Awesome intro🤩
THANKS :)
Ok, bad timing from me considering this is a sabaton vidio, but I would love to surgest another one, a music vidio released a few hours ago - christmas truce. Apparently there first one about peace rather then war (oh well.. for a day..). The song is not there most bombastic one, far from it, but the vidio was amazing and at one moment my eyes had an alergic rection and started leaking.
Its on there youtube Chanel, ruclips.net/video/HPdHkHslFIU/видео.html
We hope to get to this one soon. Never like to celebrate Christmas too early!
Pro tip:
Yesterday they released a new single (and video) from their upcoming album.
The song is called "Christmas Truce" about the infamous real life story from World War 1 when soldiers on opposing sides pretty much celebrated christmas together, hung out, played soccer, exhanged prisoners and gifts etc.
The song and video is incredible. I suggest you react to that one.
Very tempting
I really suggest that you react to the song "Great war", the officialvideo. There you also can se the involvement of the tank that the drums are set on 😀.
Liked and subscribed for further Sabaton.
Oh interesting! We can see the Tank in action!? That is definitely worth seeing!
"30 years war? Must be a Swedish thing"
More like a European thing, almost everyone was involved. Sweden, Denmark, France, Holy roman empire (Germany), Spain, the Dutch, Romania but also used mercenaries from all over like Croatian cavalry and Scottish troops. Britain was one of the few european countries that didnt join which is probably why you guys never heard about it. (unless its a skit by Fry and Laurie ruclips.net/video/c-WO73Dh7rY/видео.html )
As British we seem to have an awful lot of wars in the history but we had never heard of that one! We were probably taking a break
Yes, it was probably during tea time. For thirty years. 😁
Huraaaaa!!!!!!!!!!!! Another SABATON vid
YEAH!!! We loved it. Thanks for being here and supporting us!
another bismarck design flaw was the cabling from the firecontrol(tells the turrets and guns how to position themselves) to the turrets was above the armour and got shot by the british shortly afterwards rendering the bismarck virtually useless. Also shout out to the polish crewed destroyer who challenged the bismarck with the following signal "Come fight me I'm a pole". Keep in mind there bismarck was about fourty times heavier then said destroyer.
For other sabaton songs
Fields of verdun, The last battle, resist and bite, Nucvlear attack, Back in control, wolfpack, midway and Devil dogs. Also shout out to Christmas Truce
Interesting how the smallest thing can be your downfall. I suppose that is the definition of an Achilles’ heel? Thanks for the top tips we appreciate it
The recoil of it guns was also a problem,
it disturbed or destroyed it own radars.
Another often foreseen factor was that instead of using the Kiel Chanel it traveled north close to the Swedish coast and was spotted by the Swedish light cruiser Gotland. Well some sneaky Swedes told the British everything so they directly knew it was heading out and with what company. Pro British parts of the Swedish navy had already told the britts a lot about the ship from their month long visits down at the German shipyards also.
Ghostdivision live at woodstock is epic
Thanks
"The rudder was an Achilles heel". Or maybe even an Achilles Keel! 😉
BOOM BOOM - Dam son... Missed that. That's a classic
For crowd involvement, you need to do 40 to 1 at Woodstock Poland. 500K + fans in attendance.
My god!
Loved that! (-:
THANKS!!!!
Great reaction guys. My favorite song by Sabaton is Carolus Rex. If you have time, please do that one.
We really like Sabaton and will be doing more
More suggestions: No bullets fly, Defence of Moscow, Devil Dogs to name a few, they are all good but it's impossible to sit still when listening to the last one - that's extremely catchy and is about how the US Marines (allegedly) got their nick name "Devil Dogs" in 1918 at the Battle of Belleu Wood.
Brilliant thanks for the help really appreciate it
The lyrics are not perfectly translated.but it gives a gist of of it.
God damn Google translation.
For example; war "might" destroy a man or "could" destroy a man.
Another example, So see me for what I am a husband a friend, father and son. Etc. it goes on.
Anyway it hits you more if you know about the thirty year war and that the Swedish soldiers went out to war with their fellow men from the same village together. So fathers went out and when their sons became fighting age, it's their turn, again fighting with the people you grew up with.
I hope I made some sense with all this rambling.
Thanks for this reaction , I really hope you do more Sabaton , give Primo Victoria a reaction it’s a Slanger . Also check out Sabaton history channel.
I will check it out
Check out Saboton’s album, The Great War ( about WW1) it’s epic! Great job as always. Stay Safe Rock On from this old Metal/rock ( including super nerd).Rock On Stay Safe!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
And you!!!
Svensk stolthet över vårat rike!
(Swedish pride over our kingdom!)
:)
The song is about a soldier and his story and at that time many formed a family early and those who did not have money were called up for the war at 16 or if it was 18 years old and were married with children then the soldier was both father, husband and son to its parents, but the song has a different meaning in the English version and I recommend that you check out the story on their second channel. Then I want to recommend that you watch 82nd all the way from Oslo but also check out the story behind first and there is a music video and a cover with another band that you can also watch if you want to make a longer video with all 4 if you want compare

Great reaction guys. Was that a great live performance or what? And don't feel bad about not knowing much about the thirty years war, I don't think you are alone in that department (it was a while ago after all...). Besides, that's easily remedied by watching the corresponding Sabaton History channel video...👍 As for your next Sabaton reaction, my suggestion would be "Night Witches" - animated STORY video (it's the one that's 7.22 minutes long) it's GREAT! The subject matter in that one is the simply awesome Russian all female WW2 588th night bomber regiment. Comprised of girls as young as 17, that kicked some serious Nazi butt in outdated bi-planes. Greetings from the land of reindeer banger's... Mmm, reindeer banger's, the food of the old Norse gods!😁
Thank you for the great recommendations. We really enjoyed that track. There will be more for sure. I hope all is well in your world I’ll see you with the next track
There is a better translation somewhere for the song. "Because war it can destroy a man" (not "because war, destroy a man).
Thanks for being here and supporting us!
Really quickly, you mentioned Johnny Depp, Amber beat him up, he did not beat her up.
We did say allegedly if that counts!
@@TheThamesmen fair enough
I Think its bit funny swedes sing a song like this, a nation which has not bee in war over two hundred years. The last one was when riket lost Finland to Russians. We call ourselves a front guard of Sweden here in Finland. Heja!
Ha ha.... They have free time TO sing...
@@TheThamesmen but still "longing" the thing we dont want ever more (in Finland three bloody wars in first 30 years of nation)

Is a "history buff" - Doesn't know what the 30 years war is. Yep.
Great reaction! Love the song. I would say that you should be careful with spreading accusations even if they are alleged, at least if you are not up to speed on the story. I'm not going to recite it here because I don't want to turn your comment section into a cesspool of arguing, but there have been quite some development so if you are interested read up and draw your own conclusions.
Hi John (alex here) it was a poor attempt at humour and true, I shouldn't have touched that area. I'm not that interested in their life and am old enough to know that most things are 50/50 - Ignore me and point taken, wise words!! Be well

It's cute that you think the 100 years war was a big thing...
We are just stupid.
Nice reaction. should have used the video i recommended tho. Better translations of the lyrics and also explains the 30 year old war in the beginning.
I honestly cringe everytime i see the Captions on the official video. Dont get me wrong. its better than nothing. But it still feels like a middleschoolers school project who translated it.
But yeah. No bullets Fly Animated version. has a wholesome twist at the end as well
Sorry. We get many recommendations and so easily mix up best versions etc. Also as we dont watch even once before we play them can lead to surprises!
As a Swede. Reading the translation from "För kriget det kan, förgöra en man" to "Becuase of the war, destroy a man" it's super cringe on how bad the translation is. Not even close to what he sings. Even Google translate did a better translation and that says something.
I suppose it is better than nothing for us.
