-- INFO
The French Revolution (French: Révolution française) was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France from 1789 to 1799 that profoundly affected French and modern history, marking the decline of powerful monarchies and churches and the rise of democracy and nationalism. This anthem was composed in 1792, and is played every 14th of July on Bastille Day, to celebrate the 1789 Revolution. The Bastille was a Parisian prison for political dissidents under the monarchy, and its capture & destruction soon became the symbol of the French Revolution. Three words you will often hear: liberté, égalité, fraternité.
--- LYRICS (with translation)
Allons enfants de la patrie
Arise children of the fatherland
Le jour de gloire est arrivé !
The day of glory has arrived
Contre nous de la tyranie
Against us tyranny's
L'étendard sanglant est levé !
Bloody standard is raised
Entendez-vous dans nos campagnes
Can you hear in the fields
Mugir ces féroces soldats ?
Howling fearsome soldiers?
Ils viennent jusque dans nos bras
They are coming into our midst
Egorger nos fils et nos compagnes
To cut the throats of our sons and consorts
Aux armes citoyens ! Formez vos bataillons !
To arms citizens! Form your battalions!
Marchons, marchons ! Qu'un sang impur
March, march, let impure blood
Abreuve nos sillons
Water our furrows
Damn, who ever made the French National Anthem must have wanted to intimidate the hell out of its enemies.
Anthony Lekanof It was the purpose XD
Just imagine the situation of France after the revolution, in middle of all the european monarchy that fear revolution in their own land XD
Well it didn't happen😂
@@peak420 It happened did you forget when France annexed your country ? :)
@@spinaxiv It was a joke because they surrender at world War 2

An *original barbershop arrangement* of the French National Anthem: La Marseillaise. With Bastille Day (July 14th) coming up, I figured it was a good time to try some French barbershop for a change!
Let me know what you think of it & please share if you enjoy. :)
Bonne fête du 14 juillet !
Juste magnifique (tu n'as effectivement pas fait beaucoup de chansons en français mais elles sont toutes bien, donc c'est pas grave :P)
J'aime bien en particulier les chansons que tu fais en participation avec d'autres pays
uxipotz4 Merci, c'est sympa ! :)
maybe the greatest anthem of them all, couldn't hope for a better thing to listen. The greatest congratulations... completely astounded. (and i'm italian. if i were one of those who hate french, this would have had even more value, as a compliment :D joking, obviously, your land tought democracy to europe... )
Hey Julien!
You should sing St. Louis Blues by Nat Cole!
/watch?v=E3z3Vm3lCNk
Julien, this was very well done but I have a question for you... You're a French national, aren't you? I've always wondered if French was your first language, as you seem to speak it near flawlessly as far as I can tell ( at least to my American ears). Your normal English speaking voice doesn't seem to have any traces of an accent to me, so... how'd you manage that or were you born in an English-speaking locale? Your English speaking dialect is very neutral and hard for me to place. I suppose it doesn't have anything to do with your music but it's something I've been very curious about since first seeing your videos. Regardless, I really enjoy your work. Thanks.
i know it takes a lot of effort for these videos and a lot of time but you stick to it and you did great.
Thank you Lidsay! This one was quite a bit of work indeed, from writing the arrangement with a friend over the Internet, to learning the parts, recording, editing, putting it all together... Definitely over 50 hours of work on this one. Gotta be a bit crazy to do that! :p
A Cappella Trudbol we greatly appreciate the work!
oh my god Lindsay I love you

Fun fact, the last part of the anthem translates to "March, march, until the blood of the impure waters our fields!"
RadioactivFly Yeah, kinda gruesome... I translated the lyrics in the video description, by the way.
RadioactivFly bloody History need bloody anthem.
It's actually not anything bad said here.
When we say "impure blood". We talk about our own blood. At this time, there was nobility and the the rest called "tiers état". Nobles were said to have a blue blood, a "pure blood".
As the revolution began, the people started to fight for themselves and not some nobles. So now, it would be our own blood, our impure blood spilling for our own interests.
Stalysfa stfu and go surrender again frenchie
Eww
As a French I can tell you this is the most beautiful version of the French national anthem I've ever heard :')
Ah, merci ! Ca fait bien plaisir.
Fais tourner ! :)
True ❤
If you are English, you have a good French accent.
Cody Von Storm Je suis français. :)
***** Well then! Vous parlez bien l'anglais!
And if anyone is reading this particular post and can’t read French: his French accent is good because he is French. And he does a hell of a good job singing La Marseillaise! My favorite version by far!
@@skittleseer1 I thought he was English, wow fooled me..
Well, I know french
Damn I love the French language
Wyatt O'Neil rather beautiful language isn't it?
Very!
Italiano amico :(
Italia fascista Italian and French are Latin Langage they have so much in common.
Nahoule Deb I do know this as I’m Italian
For those wondering why the lyrics are bloody. Its because France in 1789-1799 had the bloodiest revolution in history with people being executed around the clock in every French town that had a Guillotine. This song was written when the monarchist nations were invading the extremely anti-monarchist country, and was a rallying call for French fighters under napoleon.
No. It was a rallying song under the first republic. The "Chant du départ" replaced the Marseillaise under napoléon.
It's not a blood thirsty anthem, the "impure blood" part talks about the blood of the french people, in contrast to the nobles who had "pure blood", or a "blue blood".
You can't treat the whole revolution as one revolution. The period between 1789 and 1792 was not a period of mass execution. It's what I call the "counter-revolution" under Robespierre that started this period of mass execution.
This song was sung also during the french monarchy when the King Louis XVI declared war to Austria during the constituional monarchy.
Even Robespierre himself got his head chopped off.
@@GumSkyloard
Yeah he went a little wacky.
@@chuchulainn9275 Just a little.

Too much power and resentment can do that to you.

This song was towards the Austrians. So kind of towards the Germans aswell. 😅
France loves Germany 🇫🇷❤️🇩🇪
@@seanslick38 Austrians are like the unfortunate brother of Germany 😂
It's beautiful to see how the fiercest of onetime enemies have become the best of allies, commited to a peaceful and prosperous Europe
Sure........
American here, and jealous that France has a _good_ national anthem. Compared to La Marseillaise, The Star Spangled Banner might as well be a pub song...
+QBG It actually is. Based on a British pub song at that: "To Anacreon in Heaven".
Well that would explain it ;-)
It's a written poem set to the tune of a drinking song.
Having said that, SSB seems to fit the tune better than the version of "To Anacreon in Heaven" I just listened to...
QBG oh come on.....have little pride in your country friend. Do you even know what the Star spangled banner is about?
I'm neither American nor French. And Star Spangled Banner is AWESOME!!! What the heck are you talking about?!

I've been listening to many versions of La Marseillaise for days now -- they're all beautiful and stirring but this one is really special! Bravo!
Our french teacher gaved us a project to sing the French anthem as we started learning french few years back only so it was a bit difficult task for me to sing it. I saw several vedios of france national anthem but in many of them the voice was not clear ,but this vedio was fabulous and helped me a lot to learn the anthem thak you so much for your great help😊😊😊😊

Watching this for maybe the 50th time now. Except this time I am in France!
I do have one request. If you can, can you do the Russian Federation's Anthem?
If you don't want to or can't I completely understand.
Selective Dexter That sounds like a great idea! I'm more than happy to take song requests from friends & fans on Patreon who pledge a little something towards my music and help me make all this sustainable. You are more than welcome to join & support: patreon.com/trudbol

The most tragic and blood thirsty anthem
Yet the most appropriate. At least now.
true
+ELC Driver, You fail to get the picture of what was going on. The bloodthirsty people were the Austrians poised on the border of France in April of 1792, ready to invade and make slaves out of everybody, not the French people, who were called to resist at a time when there were no standing armies and no draft ... yet. The bloodthirsty people were the "despotes sanguinaires," the bloodthirsty despots oppressing the French people, and the henchmen of Bouillé, not to mention "all these Tigers who mercilessly slash the breast of their mother [their own motherland]." In the face of people who not only want to kill and enslave you but who are already oppressing you with no compassion whatsoever, will you sing, "Let's all march hand in hand down the Champs Élysées while strewing flowers to the happy throngs around us?" No, you will sing, "Let blood so vile be spilled till victory's won!" This anthem is not about the French people being bloodthirsty. It's about them standing up to people who want to murder them in cold blood. You have to love your enemies so much that you don't want your enemies to become murderers. And the only way to do that is to defend yourself. If you don't fight back, aren't you an accomplice to your own murder? As such, you are just as guilty before God as if you had murdered yourself, because you helped your murderer to kill you. "Vive la France! Vive La Marseillaise!" See my three-verse piano arrangement with French and metric match English singing translation, "La Marseillaise (The Spirit of Marseille):" id144230.webhosting.optonline.net/gloriasunproductions.com/merchantmanager/product_info.php?products_id=49
ELC Driver You forgot the most beautiful
ELC Driver And is not blood thirsty at all lol, you probably read that on buzzfeed, what they say violent is what the enemies are going to do with the french if they succeed.
This is amazing my friend from France will like this
Vive Le France Salutations Des Philippines
Let's go children of the fatherland,
The day of glory has arrived!
Against us tyrannies
Bloody flag is raised (repeat)
In the countryside, do you hear
The roaring of these fierce soldiers?
They come right to our arms
To slit the throats of our sons, or friends!
Grab your weapons, citizens!
Form your battalions!
Let us march! Let us march!
May impure blood water out fields!
Holy shit for being stereotypically beings ones to give up easily this anthem is quite how you say violent? Not saying that the French are ones go give up easy tho.....this anthem is badass. VIVE LA FRANCE

Thanks. :)
The lyrics are translated to English in the video description.
Ouais ! Enfin une chanson que je connais.

You should do the russian anthem.
I'm currently taking song requests from my supporters on Patreon, you are more than welcome to join, pledge a little something to support my efforts & let me know what you'd like me to work on next. Please understand that making these videos is a lot of work, and an independent artist needs support from fans in order to continue making music. :)
I think it's difficult if you don't speak russian, even though the russian anthem is amazing
@@JulienNeel tut tut
It's a pretty dark anthem for such an upbeat tune XD
It was written during the french revolution after all :P
Vincent Bédard" let the blood water our fields". 😲

Si belle! Cela m'amène toujours aux larmes. L'une des chansons les plus appréciées au monde. Merci beaucoup de nous avoir donné à tous.
Would you please be so kind as to sing the Indonesian National Anthem "Indonesia Raya"? It must sound wonderful when sung a capella!
Do you dare to do the Argentine National Anthem? :D
Do you dare pledge a little something to support my music? I'm more than happy to take song requests, but I have to be realistic about the hours I put into my music (30+ hours per video), so I take suggestions from friends who support my work on Patreon. You are more than welcome to join the club and pledge a little something to help, and of course suggest songs you would like to hear. Here's the link: patreon.com/trudbol
Great job!! Can you do this with the Russian National Anthem?
Je suis français ... et c'est vraiment un excellent travail ! Bravo 8) !

People that make fun of France for capitulating during WWII obviously don't know their history.
Throughout history France has had one of the best(at times the best) military in the world.
At the start of WWII France had better tanks than Germany, very good armament, well trained and brave soldiers. It was their leadership that caused the blunder.
From America: Vive la France!!🇫🇷

French Anthem: *Antagonize*
Ladies and gentlemen your 2018 world champions
Vive la France! Love from French Canada! l’amour du Canada!
So inspiring! I watched this for years. I finally spent three months in France. A dream come true! Thanks!
Best anthem in the whole world and I personally think you improved it with this. Love from Mexico
Dommage de moins en moins de Français se souvienne de se que veut dire cette hymne... Pour eu on leurs dit que c'est raciste xénophobe mais ils n'on jamais de vrai cour d'histoire...
Devix LaCrêpe Le plus drôle est que certains politiciens ne la connaissent pas non plus ^^ C'est dire!
Devix LaCrêpe putain votez le fn 2017 pour balayez , je suis marocain , je vis au maroc mais j'aimerais pas que mon pays soit envahie ( bonne chance ;) )
Jack Frost Non déjà le dernier partie d’extrême droite qui étais arrivé au pouvoir c'étais les Nazi. Et le Fn propose rien qui peut aider la France.
+Devix LaCrêpe absolument aucun rapport, tu compare les nazis et le fn toi ? finalement tes un peu comme les moutons qui vote socialistes.
Le FN propose une réforme complète sur l'immigration, sur nos soit disant alliés (Etats-Unis que nous suivons bêtement partout alors qu'ils nous espionnent) et autres ...
C'est bien beau de dire tout le temps que le FN ne propose rien mais je suis sûr que t'es jamais partit regarder le programme du FN d'un côté, tu doit répéter bêtement ce que disent les gens.
+GunzR1 Le Fn n'a rien de dangereux pour les Etats Unis ou le système ils se contenterons de suivre le troupeau.

Could you do the Russian National Anthem?
It MAY or may not be a challenge.

Great arrangement, almost cried actually... Anyhow, what is Bastille Day? Is it like Independence Day in France? Was it established after the French Revolution?
Thank you! If you watch the video till the end & read the video description, you'll see that the French National Holiday is July 14th. :)
It's the day that mark the beginning of the French Revolution. The Bastille was a prison and the people took it.
SekundesCCFFVII Ahhh yes, I did know the Bastille was a prison, I just thought it was like an independence day in France, thanks for the clarification.
***** Yes, it is kind of like Independence Day, except we celebrate freedom from the monarchy and the early days of the French Republic.
*****
I wish Spain would liberate itself from the monarchy and become a republic.
can you do the English National Anthem? "God Save the Queen" :)
Sure, I'll get around to it. A little support is appreciated in the endeavor, as it's quite a bit of work to put these videos together: patreon.com/trudbol Thanks! :)

Looking forward to that.
Класс! Отличная работа по монтажу видео и режиссуре! А почему у вас 3 синих и один красный галстуки?
Thanks! The red tie is for the melody (main voice), the blue ties are for tenor, baritone and bass, the back vocals. :)
***** Thank you. You are very kind!
Wow! Thanks for refreshing my hazy knowledge of French history [learned piecemeal in various French, history, philosophy, and literature classes], and thanks for the translation, line by line. I truly had not realized how gritty some of the words are, as I'm usually too assailed by chills to attempt an accurate translation. Thank you, Julien -- magnifique!
Thank you! :)
thank you ! Long Live England !
Gotta be honest, France has the scariest national anthem.
The lyrics are quite violent indeed. I wish we would change them at some point, they are aging a bit.
***** I always had some trouble understanding the line "qu'un sang impur ... abreuve nos sillons"
Who were the ones with the impure blood?
Pablo Sorbara They were the Royalists. The anthem is about the people overthrowing the monarchy.
***** To be honest, I like them. These lyrics tell the story of a nation throwing off the bonds of monarchy to become the paragon of democracy in Europe. The people took the initiative and created a republic out of one of the world's most powerful states. It's similar to the United States's national anthem in this sense (though we didn't throw off monarchy, just the nation, and we never got somebody as great as Napoleon).
EnergyKnife
It's not the war or revolution bit that I find a little creepy. It's the watering fields with blood.
I wish we had national anthem like this instead of the anti English dirge that is flower of Scotland.
Love it! Vive la France!!! Allez les bleus!
Love from India 🇮🇳... such a lovely anthem.. filled with passion and spirit.. vive la France 🇫🇷
Such a beautiful national anthem.
My barbershop chorus is going to France for the 80th anniversary of D Day this June and my quartet is learning this especially for the trip. On to Normandy!
I like listening to French without knowing what it means because then it all sounds beautiful
Probably a good thing, the actual words are quite scary. (To arms! Citizens! Form you battalions! Let us march! Let us march! May impure blood water our fields!)

Matthew Nagel It was a blast and a privilege to put together this arrangement with Adam Scott himself! I'm really happy with how it turned out.
I'm Brazilian and I think so beautiful the France Nacional Anthem. It's very important the people's participation in this moment of France's history. Our anthem is very beautiful too, however The Independence wasn't a popular event, so in atual days the most part of our society doesn't know what these pretty hard words means!
Nosso é mais massa
This is beautiful! Flawless!!
Thanks! Do share! :)
I will :)
It's a beautiful national anthem, but the lyrics kinda scare me. *shiver*
Kathryn Hill Agreed. I wish we would change them, or perhaps use those from the second verse.

Makes me want to put on one of my WWI French uniforms and head for Verdun!
i can see her...*rip my eyes*... at 0:25
I can do that as a Canadian Weird Al Yankovich satire called Canadian Marseillaise. Here are my lyrics.... Canada, our native land; The day of True North is here!; From far and wide our sons command. Let the lord keep our True North land; We always stand on guard for thee! Forever glorious and free. From far and wide our true native land. Canada for our sons command. Canada is forever our native land. Our lord, keep our land; Our lord keep our land. Canada, Canada, our native land; Canada, our nation is grand!
The American people often tease the French, and I'm sure the reverse is true. But neither nation would be here today if we had not stood together in the pursuit of liberty. On an island off the coast of New York, there stands a great American icon symbolizing freedom and the pursuit of happiness. Let's never forget that she herself is an immigrant from France.
Thank God for the French nation.
Really enjoy your anthem covers. Keep it up! :)
