Sabaton is the only band I know who can get a crowd of Poles in the hundreds of thousands pumped and singing about a German armored division in WW2!
And what a crowd... :o
3:13 ”is his knee reinforced steel?”
Fun fact: Joakim is actually a cyborg sent from the future to save the Swedish metal scene and teach us about history
Between Sabaton and Ghost, Sweden's music scene is perfectly safe
That entire show is insane! Watch uprising and 40 to 1 3/4 of a million polish people singing there own history. It'll give you goosebumps
"That guy, is the personification of Redbull."
Couldn't have said it better myself.
According to the legend, Joakim have Red Bull running in his Veins instead of Blood
Honestly I think that goes for the band as a whole.
Well as a Pole I must say that concert was awesome!!!! More than 500.000 ppl :) memories. That festival is always amazing :)
40:1 and Uprising next!!!! Also at Woodstock Poland. Songs about Poland, crows is loud and wild!
I second this, 40:1 and the polish audience goes wild - this is history for them (and you :o))
for my the best Sabaton Poland song is THE WISSAR HUSSAR
YessicaSunny, im with you.
Lets do Uprising, and 40:1 from Woodstock😀🤟😀
Yeeeeees!!
WARSAVA WALCZ!
I did a research and find out that there were around 500,000 people at that show. For me being a Swede, that shit makes me proud to be a Swede.
Yes, that would be 5% of the Swedish population. - And from what I heard the figure 500.000 is on the lower end of the estimated audience...
the official attendance was 500k becuase that was the capacity. but unofficially the attendance was around 750k ...
"Let's go, I'm ready!" "...I'm not!" That's a pretty standard reaction to this song 😂
*Sabaton riff starts*
Joakim's knee:
AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA
Fun fact: Rommel was low on supplies with the 7th panzer division so he took his command car and raced back through the French lines. On the way back he got a complete French battalion or company (I don't know exactly) to surrender just with the strength of his voice
Well there French
Kachow
I’m pretty sure the French surrendered since they thought they had somehow over shot the frontline and were in enemy territory.
Around 550K to 700K people were there.
Great reaction by the way!.
82nd All The Way!!!!!
And Amaranthes cover and the live performance with Sabaton and Amaranthe together. All 3 in one reaction 😀😀👍
Jocke and Pär (singer and bass player) are so down to earth. I have seen Sabaton (old lineup) live three times. One was on a rock boat cruise and I bought a Sabaton "Army-tag-necklace" for my ex and I had problems open it, then Joakim showed up and said "Let me help you". Me and my ex was photographed together with Per on another concert for a newspaper. They´re like any ordinary guys. The "new guys" in the band are awesome singing and playing as well. In Swedish: Tack för superbra konserter med massor av energi!
Ghost division was the hypest song at the Sabaton concert I went to a few years ago, they like to open with it quite a lot.
I'd love to see you to react to their song "Lion From the North" or "Lejonet Från Norden" from The Great Tour next (they have the song both in English and in Swedish)
Lejonet Från Norden The Great Tour in Sweden with subtitles!
I love reading the caption you have at 7:25 "if this doesn't fire up a crowd...nothing will!" is super accurate because ever since they came out with this song I believe every single concert starts with this song because of its fast paced out of no where energy and it doesn't really have a dip other then a solo
Sabaton is COOOOOL......seen them several times live....and what I absolutely like about them: They are always delivering the same energy.....if it is before 1000 People or a huge crowd like this.....oh....and as being a german I have to say : NOCH EIN BIER.....Sabaton Fans know what I mean....:-))
Think about the lyrics what you will ...when they start this you yell "Ghost Division" from the top of your lungs when it is time....Awesome Live Band !
Try 40:1 from the same concert.....awesome !
It was 2012
I was there among 850 000 people, amazing crowd (= 8 largest stadiums in the world)
It was a special time and now I have special memories ;)
Joakim had that steampunk vest only during this Swedish Empire Tour. Otherwise he uses the diamond plated one. I can tell that like in this opening song Joakim also runs like a duracell bunny even in the last song of the concert :D I have also that kind of steampunk style vest btw :P
Yes, there was a bit of mic feedback in this video. Ghost Division was the first song of this concert, and I have have heard from people who was there that it was sorted in the next song. I wouldn't be surprised if all was good and well during the soundcheck earlier, when everyone was standing still on the "X"-es on the stage, but then you get to the concert and Joakim starts running around everywhere on the stage, front-back, left-right... Cheers / B.
I have a ticket for Sabaton for their sweden tour and i can't wait too see them again! 😁😁
They also have Hulkoff as their guest band and they rock as well!
This drummer is Robert Bäck who played with the band for about a year after the split in 2012, and then left to become a father. He now plays with Mustache from Gothenburg. The blond guitarist is Thobbe Englund who left the band just before Tommy joined Sabaton. Thobbe prioritized his young son, but have recently joined Civil War, a band started by the four members who left Sabaton in 2012.
You REALLY need to see Uprising. It's one of the best live performance videos there is!
Sabaton - To Hell and Back, its a great song, "good" topic and amazing music video! :D
Nightwish and Sabaton are 2 of my favourite bands! Have a ticket to their concert in my hometown in 2022 ( The Swedish tour, postponed twice). Looking forward to it. Nightwish was one of the bands for Sweden Rock Festival last year, but that festival was also postponed twice, to next year. Well this pandemic sh#@t will hopefully end one day... 🙄
Great reaction, btw!
According to festival organizers the attendance that year was on the order of 750,000 people, of which about 550-600k attended Sabaton's headlining set.
And this is not the original lineup; all those guys except bassist Pär Sundström joined in 2012. Guitarist Chris Rörland is still with the band. The guy with the Stratocaster is Thobbe Englund, who was replaced by Tommy Johansson in 2017, and the drummer is indeed Robban Bäck, who stayed for less than a year before leaving because he had a kid and being replaced by then-Evergrey drummer Hannes.
To answer the question of is is knee made of reinforced steel no it's made of depleted uranium
I saw them do this live last night. They were awesome! And their support was Bay Metal. What a night!!!
Soon! I will see them in a few weeks :). I have to record reactions to the songs on their setlist now before I get spoiled :P
Ok, this explains everything. If you have Su to only heat up the audience...
Dude you gotta do Gloryhammer!
"Hootsforce" or "Gloryhammer" those are great videos and amazing songs!
They open every show with this song, gets you in the mood right away
Still remember the first time I saw them. Friend dragged me along to concert. This was before they hit it big. We were around 50 people in a small cramped bar. Rocked just as hard then as they do nowadays. Just an amazing band through and through
Sabaton was supposed to have a tour in Sweden and abroad, been postponed to next year. I really want to see them live too.
I love your reactions! I litterally went "Yay!" when I saw a new Sabaton upload. :D Your reaction to this live performance is pretty spot on to my own when I first watched this one. Joakim's smile is just so damn contagious, I've watched this performance so many times and I still can't stop smiling along with him when I do. They all look completely overjoyed and who can blaim them? I watched a documentary that showed them going to Poland and arriving at the festival site. It was the largest show they had ever done and they looked kinda overwhelmed at it all but super excited.
I can really recommend the song "Uprising" from the same concert, Woodstock 2012. It's a song about the polish resistance movement against the Nazis in Warsaw. Performed in front of a huge polish crowd. Also, the song is fantastic.
Side note. The written comments on the screen during the video were great. I like how I get to know more about what you're thinking and feeling about the song and the video that way. Keep up the great work! :)
I knew you would love it😁
I think you need to do The Final Solution. That song gives you goosebumps
The Final Solution is probably one of the most important Sabaton songs to know about and to have heard. it isn't the best, but probably the most important.
His knee is made of 10 tanks
Since their video in tri-corner hats, I've thought they should do videos depicting themselves as time travelers -- appearing in ancient battle scenes dressed in period garb to bear witness and then disappearing, sort of like the old ZZ Top videos.. ••• Thanks for the video. I always enjoy yours a lot! (-:
Duct tape the headphones with Sabaton.
Screaming Eagles?
Found your channel randomly (thx UA-cam algorithm!) and I stayed for the Sabaton Wednesday reactions ;)
I really like what you're doing here so I'll check out the rest of the videos too.
Now a small request from your friendly Belgian neighbour for one of the next Sabaton Wednesday: please check out "resist and bite" (great tour live video). It's about the Belgian Chasseurs Ardennais and their battle in the Ardennes in 1940. It's also the slogan for the Belgian fanclub Boar Battalion (the chasseurs Ardennais had a boar as their emblem) 🤘
They still open with this song to this day, Wish this pandemic were over casue I got 2 tickets to concerts with them here in sweden
Dam that was hella good! The song, the band, the crowd, the energy, Plus the reactor!! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
If Joakim's knee is reinforced steel, then I wonder how his fist feels at the end of a show.
that vest with the gear patterns on the plates is the one he bought at a steampunk event he happened to be at one point early on in sabatons history, i believe he has newer ones with the diamond pattern plates instead of the gears
That show is why Poland Rock (formerly Polish Woodstock, because apparently the guy that started Woodstock threatened to sue for using the name) has politely asked that Sabaton not perform there again, because it's free attendance and their security is not prepared for 550k-750k people showing up.
Less fun fact, when you listen to the song Fields of Verdun, and they mention three quarter million people died in that battle over the course of 303 days. Yeah, that's that crowd.
More fun fact. Yeah, Rommel was a pretty okay dude. He didn't agree with Nazi ideology, but his country goes to war and he's gonna do his duty as a soldier. He still treated prisoners with respect, he refused to kill captured Jews, and he led from the front with his men.
He was also crafty as hell, once he realized Leeroy Jenkins'd his way into France and accidently cut himself off, he turned back and happened upon a convoy of French trucks loaded with men heading to the front lines. He pulled his tank around the convoy and parked it in front. With only himself and the men in the tank, he ordered the convoy of dozens of French troops to surrender because they had crossed into German controlled territory. As Sabaton's historian tells it "and Rommel did this with his general's uniform and commanding tone, alone", and the French complied because clearly they must've crossed German lines if the Germans approached from the rear.
Sadly, Rommel was forced to commit suicide in order to spare his family after Operation Valkyrie failed (the plot to assassinate Hitler), and while Rommel had no part in it, the SS thought him guilty enough for simply knowing of the plot (which he did, but chose to neither help for hinder). After his death, Allied command did remark he was the last gentlemanly opponent.
In the battle of Verdun not three million people died, but 1.2 million if we take the highest estimate made recently, but you see that the Sabatons sing of battles with more deaths, such as the Battle of Stalingrad, with about 2 million deaths.
Just found your channel. Gigantic Sabaton fan and you seem cool as hell. Cool “hi tank” tag as well. Definite subscribe, looking forward to more sir.
6:12 Woodstock Festival Poland 2012 (later renamed to Pol'and'Rock Festival) - 700 thousand people
YES! My favourite Sabaton song, well third, you already did Great War and Swedish Pagans! This is such a brilliant song, the energy is insane, especially live!
If I had to pick a song next, 40:1 at Woodstock, brilliant performance to see the crowd go nuts for it
Skål
"They are the Panzer elite, born to compete, never retreat ".
Sabaton Wednesday 🤘🤘🤘.
Damn it was a long week...
Nice as always 👍🤘
Abraço (yes I'm a hugger 😏)
another great reaction m8. As they say in comments i have heard nummers from 500 000- 750 000 ppl in that consert. just give me an shout and i have a ticket for you in a Sabaton consert in Helsingborg Sweden 31/1 2022. Btw you should react to The Final Solution..very dark and good song from them and it should never been forgotten about. keep up the great reactions.
Try to hear the last stand 🤘 love that song 😎
Sabaton 🤘🤘🤘🤘 Love this song
When Rommel died winston Churchill did a speach
Thobbe Englund is indeed rocking a Fender Stratocaster he said it sounds more honest and alive
Regarding the feedback from the mic you heard, apparently it was fixed right after this song. Some technical issue, but it didn't affect anything besides Ghost Division since it was their opener. Also I'd say react to 40:1 live at Woodstock Poland, or the Last Stand official music video.
Sabaton - Hill 3234, react this! You love it!)
Watched this again because well its awesome. And I missed the I'm ready. No I'm notttttt. At the beginning 🤣🤣
650 000 people to answer your question. this show was in 2012 before Tommy & Hannes Joined. You need to check out 40:1 and Uprising from the same show as well.
next song i would love to see eighter 40:1 or winged hussars
It's so weird seeing Pär without his beard here ^^
I know if there is ever a "Highlander" reboot, I want them doing the music with NightWish. How amazing would that be?
List of Sabaton songs:
40:1 (Live at Woodstock)
The Lion from the North: (Live at Woodstock)
Swedish Pagans (Live at Wacken 2019)
Primo Victoria (Live at Woodstock, DO NOT do the official music video, the scenes are not related to the song at all)
Carolus rex is a great song both in english and swedish!
Noch ein Bier! :)
About 650,000 people attended the concert
ITS TIME FOR THE RRRRRED BARRRRRRRRON!!!
If Joakim is Redbulll, then you need to watch: Winged Hussars ;P
I note that the largest German military base is named in honor of Erwin Rommel, the leader of the 7 panzer division, precisely the Ghost Division, at the inauguration of the base there were also the general's wife and son.
On the fact that someone asks why he was given the name of a general of the third reich, the answer is quite simple, during the war period, Rommel was respected not only by the allies of Germany, and internally in Germany, but also by the enemies of the Germany, had clashes first with the SA and then with the SS, for their brutal methods and for the persecution of the Jews.
And then there is the fact that he is thought to have collaborated in the failed assassination attempt of Hitler, and for this he was forced to commit suicide, then it was the allies who fueled what is called "the myth of Rommel", for to use a "good German" during the war, to prepare the rearmament of West Germany in an anti-communist function.
Great video of great video👍🔥
Their were 550,000 people in the crowd
Please check out the group From North, they are a Swedish Viking Metal Band.
🤘🇸🇪🤘
Takie rzeczy tylko w Polsce..!! 🤍❤ Niestety drugiego takiego koncertu już nie będzie..!!
SKÅL 🍻 för fan!
Next reaction with Sabaton- Into The Fire
Erwin Rommel was not a friend of Hitler and was later forced to commit suicide by Hitler. Greetings from Germany and keep up your good work.
One of joamkim’s favorites lion from the north, live the great tour 😎
Yehhhh🔥 SABATON🔥 So🔥 Great🔥
Well Sabaton is touring at least here in the States with Judas Priest later this year!!!! 500,000+ at Woodstock, imagine getting that many Poles to sing about a Nazi general and his tanks in WW2!!!
sadly you need to come to sweden or poland to get the best crowd feel
Erwin Rommel was one of the very few generals of WWII, after whom military bases and ships of the Bundeswehr were named after, after the war. He was forced to suicide by the regime, because he possible knew about the plan for the assassination of Hitler in july 20th 1944.
Hello, we must also say that in addition to him there was also General Hasso von Manteuffel, who after the war became a politician, it was he who decided that the German armed forces of West Germany should be called Bundeswehr.
Hello Viking! Could you please react to Amorphis and tell us what you think about them.
from 500,000 people to 750,000
When i hear this song it kinda remind me of the meme: do i need to revive rommel to teach you how to drive a F$!#-ing tank
Yes it is a stratocaster
Rommel was killed for not being a Nenzi
A Swedish band opening their show by singing about a German WWII soldier in Poland. The power of music.
Being a German myself, I prefer from the historical background 40:1 more, although Rommel wasn’t a Nazi himself. But, as you said, he was fighting on the wrong side.
40:1 has an insane performance and crowd reaction.
Rommel, unlike a lot of german generals during the time definitely deserves respect.
650.000 people are there
500.000 People was in place
sabaton to hell and back
I might be late to the party but rommel is the desert fox, no?
react to Swedish band Falconer (Rejoice the adorned) :D
Please for the love of God bring us, 303 days below the sun, *FIELDS OF VERDUN!*
500,000 people attended..
40:1 live at woodstock 2012 next for sure, you want a song to get the crowd fired up? how about a song about a polish last stand performed IN warsaw to 750 thousand people?
I really hope you check out devil dogs or even 82nd all the way and loving your videos dude
The Whole GREAT WAR album is amazing, especially the last one which is by faaar the most epic ;)
@@ZETH_27 i 110% definitely cant argue with that fact lol
Please react to GrailKnights Pumping Iron Power to understand Joakim's knee durability
According to Par one time after a show Joakim looked at his knee it was black and blue
Who won the 1940 tour de france?
.
.

The 7th panzer division.....
Get a softbox for your light or turn it down a bit, you lose all the details in ur face and look like a ghost :)
Who says i am not ;). And i know... light has been an issue for a while now... ill get it right some day
Wanna see people moving? React to Megadeth live in Buenos Aires (and thank me later!)
I wouldn't go as far as saying Rommel was a good person...
40:1 or Uprising
