Song: Shiroyama
Author: Sabaton
Movie: The Last Samurai (2003)
Lyrics for "Shiroyama"
It's the nature of time
That the old ways must give in
It's the nature of time
That the new ways comes in sin
When the new meets the old
It always end the ancient ways
And as history told
The old ways go out in a blaze
Encircled by a vulture
The end of ancient culture
The dawn of destiny draws near
Imperial force defied, facing 500 samurai
Surrounded and outnumbered
60 to 1, the sword face the gun
Bushido dignified
It's the last stand of the samurai
Surrounded and outnumbered
As a new age begins
The way of the warrior comes to an end
As a new age begins
The ways of the old must apprehend
It's the nature of time
That the old ways must give in
It's the nature of time
That the new ways comes in sin
An offer of surrender
Saigo ignore contender
The dawn of destiny is here
Imperial force defied, facing 500 samurai
Surrounded and outnumbered
60 to 1, the sword face the gun
Bushido dignified
It's the last stand of the samurai
Surrounded and outnumbered
Until the dawn they hold on
Only 40 are left at the end
None alive, none survive
Shiroyama
Imperial force defied, facing 500 samurai
Surrounded and outnumbered
60 to 1 the sword face the gun
Bushido dignified
It's the last stand of the samurai
Surrounded and outnumbered
60 to 1, facing the gun
60 to 1, culture undone

I love how nobody was truly the bad guy here. The Imperials we’re trying to modernize, adapting more western ways that worked for other places, while the rebellion was trying to preserve the ancient way of the people. While in the end, the samurai and the imperials reached their common goal.
Its interesting how 1 1/2 generations are split between Shiroyama, and Okinawa.
i liked how they portrayed the imperials as still being samurai by heart
the tears they shed whilst mowing the samuria down really got me and the kneeling in respect was the nail in the coffin
Except the American government. They helped modernize Japan yes but they made them alienate their culture and heritage to do it.
Historically it was most complicated, as Satsuma province was actually a home to a clan which was always more pro-imperial and pro-modernization as having closer ties to west than others, courtesy of geography and Nagasaki port, used first by Portugal and then by Netherlands. Saigo Takamori knew it was needed to modernize the country, he just wanted to keep samurai as ruling class. Tricky thing with samurai, other than warfare, they didn't really have other purpose or were allowed to pick other professions, which turned plenty of them into poverty, so many were actually glad that class restriction were getting lifted. Takamori at some point before his resignation from government service wanted to travel as envoy to Korea and behave in a super insulting fashion to get himself killed and provoke a war which he calculated that modernized Japan would win. After all his plans were failed, he resigned and later setup schools over the country to train his new paramilitary forces. During the rebellion he actually wore western uniform and had nothing against using artillery or guns, himself leading numerous artillery schools.
Nathan Algren was inspired by French officer Jules Brunet, who served during Boshin War, 10 years before Satsuma Rebellion so there is a clear timeline issue here. Brunet was part of French contingent hired by Bakufu (Tokugawa Shogunate) government in an effort to modernize their outdated forces. Actually both Bakufu and Imperials did recognize the need for change, but the question was: who would control the Emperor and do the actual reforms. They also had unfinished business between each other, as clans like Choshu wanted revenge 250 years in the making.
@@TimaeusEXE The Japanese culture and heritage (I think you mean the Bushido culture) wasn't alienated by the Americans but by the Japanese army themselves to fast tract modernization, Jules Brunet a Frenchman (not an American portrayed in the movie) fought for it the Bushido way. 🤪

In total war, we play our cavalry to win. In last samurai, even they didn't charge they will die no matter what. Imperial had 30000 soldiers and they only left 40 after first round of fight. They have a choice there. Wait for other rounds of imperial soldiers come and die or take the chance and charge with everything they have. If I were Seigo, I'll do that too. What about you? Brother.
When you think about it, this is like medieval knights fighting 19th Century European militaries.
can't stop imagining that since I first saw this movie
@@eendjesman9723 I believe the Japanese used the match-lock more than Europeans once they started to produce them. They quickly replaced the bow in the later stages of the Sengoku Jidai.
@Pa Dide yes but at shiroyama there were no guns so that’s why i
@@eendjesman9723 Nobunaga used flint lock guns as far back as the sixteenth century to break up cavalry, I would imagine that they were well adapted to using them in the nineteenth century.
Except that the samurai had been using firearms for centuries by then, since they had got them from the Portuguese in the 1500s.
The only reason they were using bows and swords in the movie is that this is after they ran out of ammo. Before the events of this movie, they were using guns as well as some artillery pieces.

Jokes aside any who get the true meaning of this, "fight for what you believe in no matter how much the odds are against you, no matter the cost" send a message to those who defy you that if you must fall you will only do so with honor and at the ultimate cost. Make them remember who you are and how much it took to defeat you if defeat is the only option. Those of today know nothing of such. Let this video be a true reminder of what it means to be a true warrior.
Rest In Peace Saigo Takamori-sama. You died as you lived: with honor!
Imperial: tell me how he die.
Nathan: I'll tell you how he lived.
That is the best line for me.
The message of the movie of preserving and honouring your identity and roots is powerful and should apply to all people and nations!
Exactly. EVERY culture is equally fascinating and these cultural differences are what set various peoples apart and the similarities are what unify us all. The inherent uniqueness of each individual is what makes humanity beautiful. Without chaos there can be no perfection, and with beauty comes inherent imperfections. If we were all identical we would be boring and not worthy of any note. Refusal to remember who we were opens the doors to the bad parts of history being put on repeat.
There must be a balance. If Japan hadn't modernized, there wouldn't be a Japan now, or at least it would be nothing like we know it now. But a culture's roots should never be forgotten, either. That goes for any culture - Germanic, British, Brazilian, Chinese, etc.

that "SHIROYAAAAAAAAAAAAAMAAAAAAAA" still gives me chills.
This, right here, is the difference between Chinese and Japanese history. China removes the history of itself except for the successes. Everything about them is written from the victor. But in Japan, they understand, they recognize what got them that far, that their history is a treasure to be cherished and understood. Because of this, Japan has an extremely strict ideal of familial and personal honor to this day, while China believes the winner is always right, even if they cheated.

There comes a time in every culture when the Warrior must bow out to the Soldier.
They were rebelling because they were losing their privileges.
Truly the Gun is a dishonering weapon killing your opponent from far distance with no skill nor any battle experience. But a sword and facing your enemy 1 vs 1 is a honoring fight and death as well.
I'm kinda hoping this is satire. If so, this is all of the comment. If not, read more below.
Firearms take a lot of skill to properly maintain and use in modern combat. Not only does it take countless hours of training and discipline to be able to aim straight in a high tension fight, but you have to understand your weapon and it's capabilities, as some situations will put you at a disadvantage with certain gun types or calibers. Is the skill needed to use it the same as a sword? No. Is it less than the sword? Also no. They're different, but that doesn't make one dishonorable.
@@stopsign1626 I dont think killing someone in a sword fight is harder than in a gun fight man.
@@yazui.i.9368 I mean that's exactly the point the rest of my comment was making. I take it we're on the same page?
@@stopsign1626 What I meant was that using a sword takes more training and skill. You look your foe in your eyes, instead of shooting from the distances. Everyone can learn how to use and maintain a gun fast, while learning the sword takes a lot more time to handle and use.
By clicking the gun you can kill someone, you need to use your whole body to use a sword. Thus a weapon like a gun, shooting from the distance in most cases, is more easier to use in general, than a sword where your nerves explode while you fight with a foe face to face.
Oh fuck off. You're one step away from declaring the common people too uppity.

My hairs stood on ends in thrill and my heart was filled with respect. All of them, each one of the Samurai knew they'd die, yet they fought, fought for honour and their respect. And they succeeded in gaining that respect for themselves.

They would never be
Samurai does mean to serve when translated into English
Many portray this conflict as "old ways against the new", but I think it is important to look at what was the driving force underneath.
It was class conflict. Samurai were defined first and foremost as landowners and nobles. And in order for Japan to modernize, it had to size and redistribute their property, and strip them of their privileges. A surprising amount of samurai went along with this, but a lot were mad.
So it's not *really* about tradition, it's about who owns shit and has power. Samurai defended traditions in the sense that it was traditional for them to be in power.
Yep, the tradition that samurai hold during satsuma rebellion just like many battles previously they fought were for power and they did that with honorable Bushido fashion(when they died) just to be remembered as brave as fuck but again these Japanese warriors have no honor when it comes to obtaining it like Nobunaga and remember Bushido when they about to die.
Slight correction, samurai didn't own land unlike medieval knights they were a military caste first and foremost. The rebellion was mostly due to military reform, if the samurai weren't needed to fight wars they had no reason to exist as a class, so they rebelled
'had to seize and distribute their property' - Commies confirmed Dishonourabru!
@@captainl-ron4068 Land reform was often used as a tool to establish capitalism just as it was used as a communist policy.
Capitalists don't particularly care about property rights if it's not *their* property rights, and are perfectly fine with using state power to steal shit from others. See every imperialist war or colonial expedition.
In this particular case though I'm on the side of capitalism. Japanese land reform wasn't even particularly harsh, sone samurai just really wanted to throw a tantrum. Haha machine gun go brrrr.

Great editing skills my friend! Excellent video! Thank you for your work!
What's amazing about this film is there is no real bad guys both sides are filled with good men who are fighting for what they believe is best for the defense of their country to the elite traditional warriors defend like they have successfully for hundreds of years or a new enlisted army that has a method that has proven to work and when all the samurai die there is a great sense of respect when they bow to what many believe are the best of their people.
Great vid as always mate my favourite film and Sabaton song 10 out of 10 from me.
People in this comment section seems forget that this war happened because the samurai class right (not taxed, get monthly payment by doing nothing, can get away with killing etc) got taken away, not because some honor or some shit.
Not exactly, if a samurai killed a person who hadn't committed a serious crime against them the samurai was put to death and all of his family's property was confiscated.

Japan in my opinion did it right they assimilated “kind of “ but promoted nationalism and honored the past which today has allowed for there culture to stay intact to an extent not seen in most colonized countries
I mean, that nationalism then led to their imperialism in the first half of the 20th century. Dunno if that’s a better outcome.
BTW I think colonised is the wrong term for some Asian Countries like China and Japan. It wasn't an excessive european landgrab like in america or africa. It was more like forced tradedeals and cultural imperialism.
Excellent matching of footage and theme to the song. Strong work!
