I was at this show (sitting somewhere in the middle of the platform to the left from this view of the stage) They had sold out the arena so we were 10 766 metalheads in the arena (going by facts online and in the newspaper after the show) Needless to say, it was one hell of a show that night.
We are seeing a beautiful rainbow here from Ukraine 🇺🇦 Serbia 🇷🇸 Korea 🇰🇷 Japan 日の丸, and Sweden 🇸🇪 It's so beautiful and emotional. I'm so touched because music is all about what we should praise 👏
About the flags. Ukraine's modern flag was first adopted in 1848 and is celebrated each year at August 23rd. The colors are believed to come from the Prince Danylo Romanovych 13th century Lviv coat of arms, depicting a golden lion on a blue background. Although the true origins are unknown both for the Ukrainian and Swedish flags, there are many theories and there could have been some similar inspirations. The Swedish coat of arms with it's 15th century origin also depicts golden lions (two) against a blue white background, together with 3 golden crowns against a solid blue background. Further more the Ukrainian trident, tryzyb stems from the Rurik Kyivan Rus' period 10th-12th century. It does resemble a crown, much like the Swedish coat of arms, but one theory is that it might resemble the Birka Falcon, a Viking Age artefact from the same time period. The outer parts being wings of a upside down Falcon diving to attack it's prey.
Whenever I see the flags of Denmark and Norway, I'm sometimes confused with the colors of red, white, and blue, just like Russia and Holland. But the Swedish flag does stand out because of its unique combination of colors. I'm impressed to see that there were some historical backgrounds and relationships between Sweden and Ukraine like this way. It's awesome and thankful to hear that from the people related here, rather than AI or Wikepedia.
@@OnohaMingdong-LifeInOsaka Thank you for your reply 🙏. Regarding the flag colours of Nordic, Dutch and Slavic flags, I think we all get confused 😅. The Japanese flag is also very unique in its design. It's a great design that all people remember easily 👍. Speaking of Ukraine, their Tryzub or Trident 🔱 symbol always make me think about the very talented female Japanese rock band, also named Trident. High energy and super skilled musicians. Japan has so many great bands and artists right now. Especially female and rock. 😎🤘🇯🇵
Please note that the English version tells a different story, still about the 30 years war tho. The Swedish version is from the perspective of a young Soldier going to war, the English version tells as story, more like a birds eye view, of Europe in war.
I usually explain it as the Swedish version tells the story from our/an Swedish soldier's view while the English is more from an outsider's view of the war.
Wonderful reaction. And coincidentaly just 1 hour before seeing this I watched your reaction of Shiroyama by Sabaton. But can you imagine Joakim (the singer of Sabaton) pairing up with Babymetal? That would be fun right? Oh s**t I forgot, it has happened. Oh Majinai, please go and watch it:) All the best from Sweden
I think it would be great if Sabaton has a work with one of Kpop bands. But you can hardly find a kpop band, not like Japan because they mostly sing and dance. And you can find a "Oh Majinai" reaction on my channel if you didn't watch yet.
As a Swedish person I can say that Despite this song is about a old war history related to Sweden sadly it relates also the current conflict in terms of suffering, memory of the fallen heroes and how war impact people's life in such tragic ways sending much love to my brothers and sisters from Ukraine...Once Blue and Yellow 4ever Blue and yellow 🇺🇦 ❤🇸🇪 regardless of where we go to traveling
During the Covid days when stuck in the house, I think I enjoyed many dramas and movies, especially Vikings related. I was surprised to notice that Vikings were all over the Europe, even in Africa, if I'm not wrong. Many scenes were about Kiev where we can easily find the trace of Vikings. Maybe mordern Ukraines are from them at some point, I guess.
Great reaction guys :) To answer your question about the connection between Sweden and Ukraine. Kiev (or what would later become Kiev as we know it ) was actually founded by vikings from sweden. And ukrainian kosacks fought alongside Karl XII at the battle of Poltava. But as far as I know there's no clear connection regarding the flags :)
@@ManfromOsaka Would like to think so :) Some say the choice of blue and yellow was a way to celebrate or honor sweden for trying to push the russian empire away. It's a nice thought but I have NP factual evidence that that is the case. Apparently the cosacks in the area had been using those colours for a long time
@henrikalexandersson4663 It looks like Sweden and Russia had been engaged in many ways to get a hegemonic power in the Northern and Eastern area of Europe. It was so smart for Sweden to be neutral during the First and Second World War in Europe.
Let's add a little. There is no recognition/place for Finnish fighters in the song. The Hakkapeliitta were Finnish cavalrymen who served in the Swedish army, especially in the Thirty Years' War. The name Hakkapeliitta comes from "Hakkaa Päälle!" - to the war cry, and it was attached to the troops with military success for the first time in the Polish War. Hakkapeliita rode Finnish horses. Later, in some contexts, all Finnish soldiers who participated in the Thirty Years' War were called Hakkapeliitos, regardless of the armed forces. Listen to Winter War by Sabaton sometimes, and it's a shame it didn't quite work out
I can see that quite Finnish soldiers played great roles in the war on the Sweden side. I don't know much about European and Nordic countries' history, but there must have been lots of geopolitical situations between them in each case throughout history. Cheers to Finnish heroes 🙌
Joakim conducting a choir of thousands - practice for when his voice goes... Ukraine and Sweden share flag colors because the Kievian Rus was originally ruled by Swedish Vikings. Ukraine is one of three countries that claim origin from the Kievian Rus.
I don't think that's correct. Sweden didn't really exist or have a flag at the time of the Rurikid era of Ukraine. The Swedish flag showed up much later (hence the cross) from king, saint, Erik seeing a golden cross in the sky while invading Finland in the 1200s iirc. Sweden and Ukraine were also allied during the time of Ivan Mazepa and Karl XII but I'm pretty sure the flag thing is a coincidence. I'll leave it to a Ukrainian to explain the origin of their flag btw.
@karl-erikmumler9820 I think I saw the Saint Erik statue somewhere in Sweden, but I'm not sure. Anyway, it's interesting to know more about things related to the history between Sweden and Ukraine.
Song: *is about 30years war between Imperial Alliance and Anti-Imperial alliance, only western European countries involved* Comments: "woah Ukraine its literally about you, even flag colours are same as Sweden, almost brothers" Bunch of clowns, very entertaining ones
“About 30 years of war” very close but no. It is about “The 30 Years War” a very specific and terrible time. Worth reacting to the Sabaton History episode on the event’s described in the song. Tragic but important to remember why we don’t let religions control governments and declare war based on religious differences.
Thanks for your accurate comments about it. It looks like the history of Europe has long been engaged with the religion, mostly between Catholic and Luther, if I'm not wrong. Maybe some others. Now, the strong and irrevocable tsunami from all over the Middle East and Northern Africa to Europe is ongoing, which is not expected to get solved in the near future. Far Eastern countries don't have a religious problem, but more dangerous ones, called totalitarianism.
@@OnohaMingdong-LifeInOsaka “far eastern countries don’t have….” Thats either a bad joke or bad history. Far East has had a long bloody history with religion in both distant and modern history.

Sweden's got a stereo type image of soft pop, normally in Korea and Japan, but the more I know it, I'm surprised. 😊
Dear young women. It was a fine reaction. Bless you and take care. Greetings from Jonas. Old man from gothenburg Sweden. ❤
Thanks 😊 Take care
I'd like to say to the girl from Ukraine, that we are always by your side! Much love from Sweden

Girls! Go for it. You guys are looking so great 👍 lovely reaction ❤
頑張って👊😆🎵
Interesting to see the reactions of three girls from different countries🤩
If the girls really enjoy a sing-along, there's always Blind Guardian and The Bard's Song at Wacken and Manowar and Heart of Steel live in Lisbon.
Yeah~ Can't help singing along with this song. It's so catchy. 🎉
So catchy to sing along ❤
My hometown of gothenburg.....
宮崎産和牛は柔らかくてとても美味しいんだな😮 皆さんここで楽しんでね😊 ggood reaction🎉
I highly reommend the engish version of this song too
Lovely ❤
The Swedish version is about the 30 years war. It's called a Lifetime of War because young men were born, lived and died knowing nothing but war.
You left a clear tip about 'The Lifetime' with which some people who don't know much about this song might be confused.
Both the Swedish and English version is about the 30 years war.
should do 40:1 that made sabaton Honorary Poles as well Uprising and Inmate 4859
They sing about the Thirty Years' War (1618-1648) .. Where Sweden became a great power
可愛いリアクションだったね。皆さん頑張るのよ🎵😊

예전에는 메탈 음악도 가끔 들었었는데 이젠 케이팝이나 미국 노래 이외는 잘 들리지 않죠.가사가 있어 대충 노래 분위기를 이해했어요. 멜로디가 케치하고 관중들이 이 밴드를 좋아한다는 느낌❤
좋은 지적입니다. 물론 케이팝을 개인적으로 좋아하지만 (정말 많은 케이팝팬들이 있죠) 다른 나라의 음악과 문화도 접하고 수용하는 자세가 중요할 것 같습니다. 나이가 있어서 그런지 아직도 Deep Purple ACDC Beatles 노래를 듣습니다.
