I would seriously recommend you checking out their cover of Motörhead's '1916'. The video is amazing, and it's a great cover to boot (with Mikkey Dee and Phil Campbell showing up in the video to pay their respects to Lemmy).
+1000 to this, absolutely incredible cover AND incredible video. Also No Bullets Fly. There are just so many I could recommend but these 2 are definitely where Id start.

They probably get the history correct more often than Hollywood. Of coarse they do work with a historian who moonlights in a few of their videos, and Indie helps host the Sabaton History Channel on RUclips.
You should listen to him singing in his Swedish mother language - totally different. He said himself he emphasises the R in Englsih so much to mask the Swedish accent. "En livstid i krig" live Fun Fact -- the Bismarck is the only ship ever referred to as "he".
Rolling the R is often used for emphasis, I don't think it would fit "En Livstid i krig". Many Swedish artists in the 50's and 60's used this technique... One that comes to mind is Lill-babs, check the song "Tuff Brud I Lyxförpackning" and watch for the rolls.
Lindemann refers to her as a she in his speech in 1940 during the "Indienststellung". Heute wird uns eine neue, Ehrfurcht erregende Waffe aus Stahl und Eisen, unser neues Schiff, gestiftet und anvertraut. SIE wird heute von unserer jungen Mannschaft, die ermächtigt ist, Blut und Eisen zu einer kraftvollen Symphonie aus eisernem Pflichtgefühl und Überzeugung zu verbinden, zum Leben erweckt, und mit heißblütiger Kraft und Kampfgeist werden höchste militärischen Ziele erreicht. Never seem the claim that Bismarck was refered to as "he" verified. This is alleged by one of the former Crew but not supported by facts or verifiable in any way. The reports of the Kriegsmarine most offen mention "Bismarck", "The Bismarck" or "The Battleship Bismarck"
Interesting factoid: Joakim Broden has no vocal training and never intended to be a singer. When Sabaton formed he was the keyboard player and had written a few songs which the band asked him to sing to get an idea of the melodies. The band did not have a lead singer and asked him to fill in until they could find one. As Joakim puts it, "They never did...lazy bastards."
Bismarck, one of the most requested topics for a Sabaton song. A gift to the fans this tune. Gotta love my Swedish Sabaton. Awesome reaction, rock on 🤘
This was a fantastic winner for the Metal Theme. You're right. The compass is significant, but I haven't found reliable sources as to why. Fairly reasonable to assume the compass taken from the Bismark captain is the one the tugboat skipper has. Some folks point out the numbers scratched onto it match fairly well the coordinates where the ship sank. Others believe the skipper is a descendant of the rescued German sailor: son or grandson.
I figure the tugboat captain was the son of the Bismarck sailor who was rescued. I didn't think it was a compass, but a pocketwatch (which would have been more common at the time). Look at compasses back then and they typically didn't look like that, but pocketwatches did.
Great reaction Beth. As you are a vocal coach I can strongly recommend that you listen to one of Sabatons two lead guitarists (both are lead). Tommy Johansson is not only a very good guitarist he is also an extraordinary singer (recently left Sabaton for to continue with his other band Majestic). He has his own RUclips channel. I suggest that you listen to his cover of You raise me up, singing one octave higher than the Josh Groban version. Really amazing actually!
For Christmas you should look at their song Christmas Truce Also you should check out their former guitarist Tommy Johansson who has a golden voice. He has a RUclips channel and is also the singer of his own band Majestica
The allied did not sink the Bismarck, they made video like this because of the game. 1 torpedo hit the rudder, preventing the ship from steering and could only go in circles, but in the wreck they found all torpedo walls, none had taken any damage at all and the only penetrations of the hull(two) was way above the water line where it have very thin armor and almost no slope. The german crew sank the ship by placing explosives on the insides, to prevent the flagship of n-germany, the pride of adolf, to fall in to the hands of the allies
Great react. Has she heard any of Tommy's solo works. Jokim is talent for sure, but as far as singing goes, holy moly Tommy is talented. He's left the band to pursue his solo work, but god can he shred and sing.
Sabaton's a wonderous rabbit hole to dive into especially if, like me, you're a history buff AND a metalhead. You now absolutely must check out The Christmas Truce, all about the rl truce of 1914, though that might actually be best saved for December since it's relatively close. Shiroyama and Rorke's Drift are another couple I'd recommend off the top of my head but I could go on.
I have never heard of the band or this song but it is amazing. You would have loved rocking and head banging in the sixties and seventies to the QUO . I remember when i could do that with my hair ,sadly now i cannot find it .
"Not through speeches and majority decisions will the great questions of the day be decided-that was the great mistake of 1848 and 1849-but by iron and blood" From a speech held in 1862 by Otto von Bismarck.
Hi Beth. I know you love your world music. Have you ever come across a Polish group called Tulia? All-female folk group who use a technique called "white voice" or something, and the do the most beautiful, unearthly covers and original music. Their covers of Nothing Else Matters and Enjoy the Silence bring me to tears every time.
Closer to Christmas time you have got to check our their song Christmas Truce, the cinematography is just as good if not better than their video on Bismarck, and since we all love Floor Jansen, she helps with an epic closure to the song, much love, keep doing what you do
Joakim really leans into the pronunciation problems swedes often have with the English language. Like you said with J-sound in iron, fire and sight, hard K-sounds, rolling R's and american'ish A-sounds. I also think he does it in a very deliberate way.
There were 2000 men and 1 cat on the Bismarck, The cat was one of the Survivors of the Bismarck. The cat was named Sam, and he went on to survive the sinking of both HMS ships that he was the ship's cat on. He is known as Unsinkable Sam. Sam went on to live out his life at Admiralty House at Gibraltar. The Graphics in the Video of all the ships were done by the World of Warships graphics department of Wargaming Inc, A video Gaming Company.
Kriegsmarine - 'krieg' = war, 'marine' = sea (literal), so Navy. Great band, these guys. They know their stuff too. Hope you react to some more. Those who have already suggested 'En livstid i Krig' know what they are talking about, I add my vote to that. Also recommend: 'Winged Hussars', 'The Last Stand', 'Shiroyama', 'Soldier of Heaven' and 'Race to the Sea'. Plenty of other great songs, I can't list them all here, lol. Oh and '40:1' and 'Uprising' (from I think it's Woodstock) in Poland are well worth a watch too, the crowd was so invested.
For those new to Sabaton: History this and other of their song have it's own channel. It contains interesting(sometimes very blunt) facts about the real cases f.e ""Bismarck - Battle of the Atlantic - Sabaton History 012 [Official]"" ruclips.net/video/r5D3wSqdIG4/видео.html
Fun fact the Bismarck was not sank by the allies. The crew actually scuttled the ship. Marine archeoligists studied the vessel in detail. The armoured hull was not penetrated, and the vessel would have been sea worthy had the crew not sank the ship to prevent it falling into enemy hands. The rudder was damaged by the allies during the air attacks on the ship which caused it to be unable to properly steer. Which led to the final confrontation of the entire allied atlantic fleet versus the lone bismarck. It went down swinging and its fighting spirit and last stand was praised by brittish admiralty. It sank the Hood and in the final stand critically damaged several other vessels.
Nice Video. hello from Germany. Around 50 ships were scheduled to hunt the Bismarck. After the heavy hits they fired the last of their ammunition and then the Germans blew up the Bismarck. Please reac to more Sabaton. Wolfpack,Red Baron and No bullets fly are coole music Videos
Wargaming's World of Tanks division also did the CG for Primo Victoria and Steel Commander, plus added a Sabaton themed Tank to their World of Tanks Games.
the song was aso in corporation With wargaming like the song Primo Victoria the named the ship aso the wargaming World of Warships chanel has named the video as Bismarck. A musical tribute from Sabaton and World of Warships and there is also The battleship “Tirpitz” of the German Navy is 253.6 meters long and 36 meters wide. It is a good three meters longer and slightly heavier than its almost identical sister ship "Bismarck"
I love how the chorus sounds almost like a marching army. The way Joakim emphasizes it like PRIDE of a NATION the BEAST made of STEEL each word sounds like a stomp
"Funny" thing is, that Bismark was sink by a pre-ww2 aircratft, a humbe Fairey Swordfish, that managed to hit the ship rudder, that ultimately sealed it's fate. David and Goliath reference.
There are rumors stating that the allies weren't able to sink the Bismarck themselves. Apparently, the remaining crew members scuttled the ship themselves.
This was confirmed when the Bismarcks wreck was found. While the superstructure and the deck were utterly destroyed by the allied battleships, their cannons were unable to penetrate the hull. Eventually the German crew scuttled the ship, not wanting the allies to get their hands on it.
I was hoping to find Frank Sinatra's - My Way on your channel, but seems like you haven't done that one yet. I always have trouble singing it and it's an amazing song! Also, i think you'd like Marija Serifovic's - Molitva, a winning song from Eurovision 2008. contest
Go go Power Rangers. I just had to check out the pronunciation of the theme song. Also I had to check out Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs, wich is by the way Sejushi Bisumaruku in the orignal, wich means Star Musketeer Bismark. This ist just how may brain works when I hear somebody say "R" pronounced as "A". I will never listen to those theme songs like before.
Hey Beth Roars! I want you to watch and listen to SABATON - Ghost Division (OFFICIAL LIVE VIDEO) ruclips.net/video/9FkYxnm70vg/видео.html This is because what the singer Joakim does in this video, you have probably never seen or heard anyone else do. Because at the same time as Joakim sings, he runs around on stage. You don't hear the slightest hint that he would be possessed. I think this is powerful and so have other Vocal Coaches and opera singers, as Joakim is not exactly a lightweight person.
Not a worry Beth - I'm Canadian and while I can manage the short, French rolled R, a longer one (Spanish, most Scandinavian languages, Gaelic, etc) is pretty much beyond me alas. Not sure why, my Mom can do it!
I love what I've heard of Sabaton so far. My favourite is '82nd All the Way'. Another Swedish metal band, then, you might want to check out is Amaranthe, who did a cover of that song, and has performed it live with Sabaton. They are buddies with Dragonforce, too and toured with them... wish I'd been able to go to one of those shows! I'd love to hear your reaction to Amaranthe's 'Amaranthine' which I think might be the best power-ballad ever: ruclips.net/video/D8lV1To-_fU/видео.html Their more typical stuff is more like 'The Catalyst' ruclips.net/video/5521ErpWF_M/видео.html in style, where they have 3 vocalists trading off parts (clean female, clean male, and growler) and Elize and Nils are considered top vocalists in the genre, I think... in one band together! Worth checking out for sure.
Thank you Beth for reacting to Sabaton they are one of my favorites. Looking forward to your "En livstid I krig" reaction, if you decide to react to it. I would also like to make a selfish request because I know you reacted to an Afrikaans song "Komma" a few years back. Can you please react to "Francois van Coke & Karen Zoid Toe vind ek jou English Subs" it is such a meaningful song with a lot of vocal skill and harmony for you to analyze.
"Primo Victoria", the name of the boat they were on, is also the name of another Sabaton song - worth a look! They froze on the boat, Joakim was probably bashing his leg to make sure it was still there! My Dad was RAN. His ship chased the KMS Scheer after HMS Jervis Bay was sunk - lucky for him and me he did not catch it, that time.
I don't think I have ever been in love before, but my god I think I'm in love with Beth Roars. I have never been so vulnerable in my life, and I found this channel by accident. Best suggestion I have ever had. I am now addicted to this channel and learning so much. Always fancied myself as a singer and this channel has helped beyond belief. I absolutely love Beth Roars. Her Celtic sounds leave me breathless. I've always wanted to have a future in Scotland. So Beth If you are listening, I see no ring on your finger... I can help you with that, If you fancy a Yorkshire lad from England in your life. Also I really love you.
If you listen careful in the beginning of the Video, you can hear over the Radio the message "The German Battleship had taken down the Mighty Cruiser Hood" that lead to the order Bismarch must be sunk at all Cost.
Calling the Bismarck a "Big Old Battleship" is somewhat under stating its importance. It was a floating weapons battery, that if it got into the Atlantic would have massively crippled Allied supplies and troops. There's a reason the Allies ran a couple of their ships ragged and counted themselves lucky they got a strategic torpedo hit, cause if the Bismarck (And his sister ships) got to the Atlantic, the allied war effort would have been majorly crippled
ples keep in mid that HMS hood sunk with 1,415 hands lost an the Kriegsmarine lost 2,086 hands on Bismarck war shood be a last resrort an we shod not forget the 2 world wars Theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do and die. (From The Charge of the Light Brigade, the poem)
you talked about the R---the hard and the rolling R.. you self are one of the history decents from denmark to island and the irlandish cultur. 70 procent of danish cultur vikings with norway and some swedes. today it s blendet but when you get a islandic girl talk inglish she sounds like a south irish with rolling R..And the ginger girls is from west denmark to brittania irland and scottland to island and greenland. that was before the itaian romans tryed to take over europe,, they failed som belgien and duthe people where left.. The Inglish languish was born and as you know today the irish people then would not join the brittania. UK today. check up your ansesters history an hobbys.. there was meny cost vokalist like opera nature and folk songs.. its beautifull,,
The captain of the fishing vessel was the son or grandson of the survivor you see at the end of the video. It's the same compass with the coordinates inscribed.
The British never did sink the Bismark, the crew scuttled the ship. yes it was damaged, but not beyond repair they didnt want the ship to fall into British hands.
6:31 and a cat, curiously. unsinkable Sam, rescued by the british, and survived three ship sinkings in total until the brits decided that he might be bad luck.
the company that did the video is a small gaming company they have a couple games you might know also their song primo victoria done by the same company the game are as follows world of warships world of tanks the company gave the band a premium tank in the game for every1 to play with
Olá! Recomendo muito que você veja o vídeo de um quarteto brasileiro, o "Quarteto Gileade" eles são famosos no meio gospel, procure a música à capela "Nova Jerusalém" é sensacional!
Sabaton me fez gostar mais de metal, dificil achar uma música deles que não gosto, ainda bem que eles escreveram uma música sobre a participação do Brasil na segunda guerra, por isso vim a descobrir essa banda que hoje sou fã.... Sabaton made me like metal more, it's hard to find a song of theirs that I don't like, thank goodness they wrote a song about Brazil's participation in the Second World War, that's why I discovered this band that I'm a fan of today...
Eles fizeram uma homenagem a heróis de guerra BRASILEIROS, contam a história dos Cobras Fumantes. O Brasil não queria entrar na guerra e um governante disse que só entraríamos em guerra se a cobra fumasse, entramos em guerra e muitos combatentes morreram no front lutando contra nazistas e fascistas na Itália.
For context Battleships are one of the biggest and most powerful things humanity has ever created, up there ith supercarriers and the atomic bomb. The Bismarck was bigger than anything the Allies made, terrified the shit out of the Allies and notably was given a male name - as the song said "The King of the Seas" - when ships are almost ALWAYS she/her. The sinking was a HUGE morale boost to the British forces in a war that, at they time, they were losing. Also ROFL 4:52 Authoritarian is certainly an amusing word to land on in a song about a German WWII warship haha
The story goes that Hitler used male pronouns because nothing that powerful should be referred to with "she." I don't know if that's true or not, but given that the sister ship Tirpitz did not get this treatment, I doubt it. As far as male names go, that's completely false. Most ships with a human name have used male names. The sister ship Tirpitz, as an obvious example. Or I could bring up other German warships like Gneisenau, Scharnhorst, Roon, etc. Or maybe British ships like Hood, Lord Nelson, King George V, etc. Or American ships Nimitz, Porter, Farragut, etc. I trust I've made my point.
@@reliantncc1864 It was the Bismarck's Captain Lindemann who is the only person (on record) to have ever referred to her as a "Male" Not even the Admiral on board nor anyone else ever referred to Bismarck as He. And like you said, Tirpitz, Bismarck's sister ship was referred to as a she. She even gained a nickname "The lonely Queen of the North."

Absolutely yes!
I concur
YES please, the vocals are amazing in that one. And, um, bring tissues.
Sabatons Swedish version of ''En livstid i krig'' Live whit subtitles is a must!
I concur emphatically.
From the The Great Tour in Gothenburg
Yes, you hear his voice there alots more, all levels.
When the Bismarck emerges from the fog….THAT was badass.
It was even worse survival numbers on HMS Hood, out of 1490 sailors onboard only three survived.
Bismarck took well over 400 hits from shells and torpedoes. Can't imagine what that must have been to go through.

Carolus Rex in Swedish live from The Great Tour which features Apocalyptica.
When Joakim sings in Swedish, goosebumps every time.
Please. Watch 1916. A cover that Motorhead first did. Gut wrenching. Then react to Motorheads version. Even more gut wrenching.
You should check out former member Tommy Johannson's cover of Phantom of the Opera. He is phenomenal.
This was a fantastic winner for the Metal Theme. You're right.

The captain scribbled Bismarcks last position on it.
He’s apparently the grandson of the sailor and the compass he’s holding is the actual one from the Bismarck. It was loaned for the shoot.
I figure the tugboat captain was the son of the Bismarck sailor who was rescued. I didn't think it was a compass, but a pocketwatch (which would have been more common at the time). Look at compasses back then and they typically didn't look like that, but pocketwatches did.

Lead guitar here is by Tommy Johansson. You really should check out his solo stuff!
Tommy is awesome. Check his stuff. One of the best.
I love that they added the Fairey Swordfish launching the torpedoes that took out the Bismarck's rudder.
The whole video is pretty accurate apparently. It's sponsored by World of Warships, and they've got some hardcore experts.
@@richardgoddard37 I think Sabbaton go out of their way to be accurate.
@@richardgoddard37 Well, it matches what I remember of Sink the Bismarck when I read it back in 8th grade.
The great Tommy Johansson on guitar here (he has dropped out from Sabaton now though) and Floor Jansens husband Hannes on drums.
Sabaton!!.🇸🇪Nice reaction Beth

That was a great reaction video, love how you break down the vocals, and add a bit of trivia.

Just watched them in concert a few weeks ago when they opened for judas priest. They put on a great show.
When Bismarck sank the Hood there were just 3 survivers out of a crew of around 1400
And they came back for a reunion for decades afterward. Sad day when the last survivor had no shipmates left.
For Christmas you should look at their song Christmas Truce
Also you should check out their former guitarist Tommy Johansson who has a golden voice. He has a RUclips channel and is also the singer of his own band Majestica
The allied did not sink the Bismarck, they made video like this because of the game. 1 torpedo hit the rudder, preventing the ship from steering and could only go in circles, but in the wreck they found all torpedo walls, none had taken any damage at all and the only penetrations of the hull(two) was way above the water line where it have very thin armor and almost no slope. The german crew sank the ship by placing explosives on the insides, to prevent the flagship of n-germany, the pride of adolf, to fall in to the hands of the allies

Hey, hey, hey! Don't leave out Rhapsody! They're a damn good power metal band too!
Another one to add to the Sabaton list - No Bullets Fly.
Random info: The band Heaven Shall Burn made a song about Tirpitz, the other ship of the Bismarck class. That song has quite the different vibe.
Please check out Tommy Johansson’s channel, the former lead guitarist in Sabaton. Awesome singer! Great reaction!👏
I highly recommend reacting to their "Night Witches" collaboration with the Yarn Hub. Make sure it is the full animation. (Good reaction, Subbed)
You should really listen to Sabatons Christmas Truce, in my opinion it's a master piece. There is also a little but great surprise in the end.
I have never heard of the band or this song but it is amazing. You would have loved rocking and head banging in the sixties and seventies to the QUO . I remember when i could do that with my hair ,sadly now i cannot find it .

The Bismarck did more or less oneshot the "Mighty Hood" in WW2, a british Warship. Horrific stories that happend back then.

Great band, these guys. They know their stuff too. Hope you react to some more. Those who have already suggested 'En livstid i Krig' know what they are talking about, I add my vote to that. Also recommend: 'Winged Hussars', 'The Last Stand', 'Shiroyama', 'Soldier of Heaven' and 'Race to the Sea'. Plenty of other great songs, I can't list them all here, lol.
Oh and '40:1' and 'Uprising' (from I think it's Woodstock) in Poland are well worth a watch too, the crowd was so invested.
When he sings they are bound by "iron and blood" it's referring to a speech by Otto Von Bismarck en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_and_Iron_(speech)
For those new to Sabaton: History this and other of their song have it's own channel. It contains interesting(sometimes very blunt) facts about the real cases f.e ""Bismarck - Battle of the Atlantic - Sabaton History 012 [Official]"" ruclips.net/video/r5D3wSqdIG4/видео.html
Fun fact the Bismarck was not sank by the allies. The crew actually scuttled the ship. Marine archeoligists studied the vessel in detail. The armoured hull was not penetrated, and the vessel would have been sea worthy had the crew not sank the ship to prevent it falling into enemy hands. The rudder was damaged by the allies during the air attacks on the ship which caused it to be unable to properly steer. Which led to the final confrontation of the entire allied atlantic fleet versus the lone bismarck. It went down swinging and its fighting spirit and last stand was praised by brittish admiralty. It sank the Hood and in the final stand critically damaged several other vessels.
BISMARCK IN MOTION
swimming in the ocean
Causing a commotion
Coz he is so awesome
Does anyone ever realize the kid climbing out of the water IS the boat captain that takes them out?
Throwing in a request too:
The Animated Story Video from Red Baron.
Great reaction! Great band! Great song! Great movie! Great facts!..Gorgious lady!! 😍
Nice Video. hello from Germany. Around 50 ships were scheduled to hunt the Bismarck. After the heavy hits they fired the last of their ammunition and then the Germans blew up the Bismarck. Please reac to more Sabaton. Wolfpack,Red Baron and No bullets fly are coole music Videos
Not just funding, World of Warships developer did the CG. Just super impressive all around.
Wargaming's World of Tanks division also did the CG for Primo Victoria and Steel Commander, plus added a Sabaton themed Tank to their World of Tanks Games.
Beth still rules and still roars!
the song was aso in corporation With wargaming like the song Primo Victoria the named the ship aso the wargaming World of Warships chanel has named the video as Bismarck. A musical tribute from Sabaton and World of Warships and there is also The battleship “Tirpitz” of the German Navy is 253.6 meters long and 36 meters wide. It is a good three meters longer and slightly heavier than its almost identical sister ship "Bismarck"
FUN FACTS The commander of Bismarck suggested the ship be called a HE instead of She. Also, Bismarcks' birthday is February 14 (Valentine's Day)
My fav is The Last Stand
Beth is the cutest metalhead.
Awesome reaction! Could you please react to HammerFall “The End Justifies”
I'd love to see your raw reaction to Archspire. The vocalist's breakneck pace is astounding.
I love how the chorus sounds almost like a marching army. The way Joakim emphasizes it like PRIDE of a NATION the BEAST made of STEEL each word sounds like a stomp
Wow...they were just here in Wisconsin...not huge on metal but they have a unique, exciting sound...really talented! 👍
Night Witches is another great one, thought they don't really have bad songs...Winged Hussars, Ghost Division, Attack of the Dead Men.
To be honest, the Royal Navy didn't "sink" the Bismark. It was scuttled by its own crew
"Funny" thing is, that Bismark was sink by a pre-ww2 aircratft, a humbe Fairey Swordfish, that managed to hit the ship rudder, that ultimately sealed it's fate. David and Goliath reference.
There are rumors stating that the allies weren't able to sink the Bismarck themselves. Apparently, the remaining crew members scuttled the ship themselves.
This was confirmed when the Bismarcks wreck was found. While the superstructure and the deck were utterly destroyed by the allied battleships, their cannons were unable to penetrate the hull. Eventually the German crew scuttled the ship, not wanting the allies to get their hands on it.
@@bucue802 ay, thanks for confirming! It impresses me tbh! Imagine all the shells and torpedoes it took and still wouldn't sink!
I was hoping to find Frank Sinatra's - My Way on your channel, but seems like you haven't done that one yet. I always have trouble singing it and it's an amazing song! Also, i think you'd like Marija Serifovic's - Molitva, a winning song from Eurovision 2008. contest
Go go Power Rangers. I just had to check out the pronunciation of the theme song. Also I had to check out Saber Rider and the Star Sheriffs, wich is by the way Sejushi Bisumaruku in the orignal, wich means Star Musketeer Bismark. This ist just how may brain works when I hear somebody say "R" pronounced as "A". I will never listen to those theme songs like before.
Hey Beth Roars!
I want you to watch and listen to SABATON - Ghost Division (OFFICIAL LIVE VIDEO) ruclips.net/video/9FkYxnm70vg/видео.html
This is because what the singer Joakim does in this video, you have probably never seen or heard anyone else do.
Because at the same time as Joakim sings, he runs around on stage. You don't hear the slightest hint that he would be possessed. I think this is powerful and so have other Vocal Coaches and opera singers, as Joakim is not exactly a lightweight person.
Please react to Erik Grönwall all by myself (original key) Celine Dion challenge
It just occured to me how much I want an UDO cover of this song. Might accidently start WW3!
Very cool band who do some real good historic storytelling with music! Love that approach!
Not a worry Beth - I'm Canadian and while I can manage the short, French rolled R, a longer one (Spanish, most Scandinavian languages, Gaelic, etc) is pretty much beyond me alas. Not sure why, my Mom can do it!
I love what I've heard of Sabaton so far. My favourite is '82nd All the Way'. Another Swedish metal band, then, you might want to check out is Amaranthe, who did a cover of that song, and has performed it live with Sabaton. They are buddies with Dragonforce, too and toured with them... wish I'd been able to go to one of those shows!
I'd love to hear your reaction to Amaranthe's 'Amaranthine' which I think might be the best power-ballad ever: ruclips.net/video/D8lV1To-_fU/видео.html Their more typical stuff is more like 'The Catalyst' ruclips.net/video/5521ErpWF_M/видео.html in style, where they have 3 vocalists trading off parts (clean female, clean male, and growler) and Elize and Nils are considered top vocalists in the genre, I think... in one band together! Worth checking out for sure.
Thank you Beth for reacting to Sabaton they are one of my favorites. Looking forward to your "En livstid I krig" reaction, if you decide to react to it. I would also like to make a selfish request because I know you reacted to an Afrikaans song "Komma" a few years back. Can you please react to "Francois van Coke & Karen Zoid Toe vind ek jou English Subs" it is such a meaningful song with a lot of vocal skill and harmony for you to analyze.
"Primo Victoria", the name of the boat they were on, is also the name of another Sabaton song - worth a look! They froze on the boat, Joakim was probably bashing his leg to make sure it was still there! My Dad was RAN. His ship chased the KMS Scheer after HMS Jervis Bay was sunk - lucky for him and me he did not catch it, that time.
I don't think I have ever been in love before, but my god I think I'm in love with Beth Roars. I have never been so vulnerable in my life, and I found this channel by accident. Best suggestion I have ever had. I am now addicted to this channel and learning so much. Always fancied myself as a singer and this channel has helped beyond belief. I absolutely love Beth Roars. Her Celtic sounds leave me breathless. I've always wanted to have a future in Scotland. So Beth If you are listening, I see no ring on your finger... I can help you with that, If you fancy a Yorkshire lad from England in your life.
Also I really love you.
If you listen careful in the beginning of the Video, you can hear over the Radio the message "The German Battleship had taken down the Mighty Cruiser Hood" that lead to the order Bismarch must be sunk at all Cost.
Calling the Bismarck a "Big Old Battleship" is somewhat under stating its importance. It was a floating weapons battery, that if it got into the Atlantic would have massively crippled Allied supplies and troops. There's a reason the Allies ran a couple of their ships ragged and counted themselves lucky they got a strategic torpedo hit, cause if the Bismarck (And his sister ships) got to the Atlantic, the allied war effort would have been majorly crippled
2:19 is actual footage from Bismarck, filmed from aboard one of the Allied ships that was fighting it.
Sabaton has so many amazing songs - welcome to this fabulous rabbit hole! So many treasures to find❤
Ah yes, the Bismarck. One of the greatest artificial reefs ever built. lol
ples keep in mid that HMS hood sunk with 1,415 hands lost an the Kriegsmarine lost 2,086 hands on Bismarck war shood be a last resrort an we shod not forget the 2 world wars
Theirs not to reason why, theirs but to do and die. (From The Charge of the Light Brigade, the poem)
you talked about the R---the hard and the rolling R.. you self are one of the history decents from denmark to island and the irlandish cultur. 70 procent of danish cultur vikings with norway and some swedes. today it s blendet but when you get a islandic girl talk inglish she sounds like a south irish with rolling R..And the ginger girls is from west denmark to brittania irland and scottland to island and greenland. that was before the itaian romans tryed to take over europe,, they failed som belgien and duthe people where left.. The Inglish languish was born and as you know today the irish people then would not join the brittania. UK today. check up your ansesters history an hobbys.. there was meny cost vokalist like opera nature and folk songs.. its beautifull,,
The captain of the fishing vessel was the son or grandson of the survivor you see at the end of the video. It's the same compass with the coordinates inscribed.
The numbers etched into the compass are the coordinates where Bismark sank.
I just discovered this song a few months ago myself 😁
The British never did sink the Bismark, the crew scuttled the ship. yes it was damaged, but not beyond repair they didnt want the ship to fall into British hands.
6:31 and a cat, curiously. unsinkable Sam, rescued by the british, and survived three ship sinkings in total until the brits decided that he might be bad luck.
the company that did the video is a small gaming company they have a couple games you might know also their song primo victoria done by the same company the game are as follows
world of warships
world of tanks the company gave the band a premium tank in the game for every1 to play with
Olá! Recomendo muito que você veja o vídeo de um quarteto brasileiro, o "Quarteto Gileade" eles são famosos no meio gospel, procure a música à capela "Nova Jerusalém" é sensacional!
Luciano Pavarotti, James Brown - It's A Man's Man's Man's World ... REACTION...
Sabaton me fez gostar mais de metal, dificil achar uma música deles que não gosto, ainda bem que eles escreveram uma música sobre a participação do Brasil na segunda guerra, por isso vim a descobrir essa banda que hoje sou fã....
Sabaton made me like metal more, it's hard to find a song of theirs that I don't like, thank goodness they wrote a song about Brazil's participation in the Second World War, that's why I discovered this band that I'm a fan of today...
Eles fizeram uma homenagem a heróis de guerra BRASILEIROS, contam a história dos Cobras Fumantes. O Brasil não queria entrar na guerra e um governante disse que só entraríamos em guerra se a cobra fumasse, entramos em guerra e muitos combatentes morreram no front lutando contra nazistas e fascistas na Itália.
Iotuun i feel the night, you wont find a better vocalist in metal
For context Battleships are one of the biggest and most powerful things humanity has ever created, up there ith supercarriers and the atomic bomb. The Bismarck was bigger than anything the Allies made, terrified the shit out of the Allies and notably was given a male name - as the song said "The King of the Seas" - when ships are almost ALWAYS she/her. The sinking was a HUGE morale boost to the British forces in a war that, at they time, they were losing.
Also ROFL 4:52 Authoritarian is certainly an amusing word to land on in a song about a German WWII warship haha
The story goes that Hitler used male pronouns because nothing that powerful should be referred to with "she." I don't know if that's true or not, but given that the sister ship Tirpitz did not get this treatment, I doubt it. As far as male names go, that's completely false. Most ships with a human name have used male names. The sister ship Tirpitz, as an obvious example. Or I could bring up other German warships like Gneisenau, Scharnhorst, Roon, etc. Or maybe British ships like Hood, Lord Nelson, King George V, etc. Or American ships Nimitz, Porter, Farragut, etc. I trust I've made my point.
@@reliantncc1864 It was the Bismarck's Captain Lindemann who is the only person (on record) to have ever referred to her as a "Male" Not even the Admiral on board nor anyone else ever referred to Bismarck as He. And like you said, Tirpitz, Bismarck's sister ship was referred to as a she. She even gained a nickname "The lonely Queen of the North."
