I am loving the enthusiasm you guys shows in your reactions, I think that is why we all come back for more. Kudos to you!
Guess I could say that this song is my favourite, but the problem is, that every time I hear a Sabaton song I feel just that one is my favourite 😀.
Thank you for the support. Yes we have the same issue as all the tracks are amazing!
and again :P
There were women's regiments containing these little PO biplanes as well as twin engined bomber or fighters. Some of the regiments were promoted to Guards Regiments (a high honour) and many of the pilots were awarded the highest military award: the Hero of the Soviet Union. One of the women's fighter pilots had been transferred to a mixed regiment where she fought alongside her lover. After he was killed in a training accident she fought alone. Her name was Lydia but she was also known as the Rose of Stalingrad, White Rose and the Lone Hunter. She holds the record for the highest number of confirmed kills of any women pilot to this day. There's a great book about the Night Witches (called Night Witches) I highly recommend.
Wow what an amazing history. Thank you for sharing and thank you for your support
Thank you Gentlemen. I was really looking forward to this. And you guys never dissapoint. Another wonderful reaction. Hope to see you do "Defence of Moscow" by Sabaton in the future.. Love from Stockholm Sweden /J
We will absolutely do more Sabaton soon. Thank you for your support it is an awesome community here
My history teacher in highschool actually told us of the "Nacht Häxen". He always included, for each segment, some cool things to read about that wasn't in the curriculum. I remember the Night Witches in particular because that was the one time he actually elaborated on a topic. Every test had a short essay on a list of topics provided with the test. Usually there were some topics relating to the extra subjects. For this segment maybe 80% wrote about the Night Witches. That story made a big impact on our class. And this was before Sabaton was a thing.
You had a great teacher who inspired you. Well done teacher. Take care
Not many people have reacted to Sabaton - The Final Solution. You should really take the time and do it. It's really heavy on your heart but we need to see and hear to not let history repeat itself.
I can imagine that might be a tough one. Thank you for the suggestion we will absolutely consider it
To put this in context: 23 000 missions, 3 planes each, 2 woman per plane ... so out of 138 000 woman in the sky, only 32 never came home... that is some epic stats right there! There woman were extraordinary. Much respect to them.
I KNOW!! I mean.... amazing Thanks for supporting our channel and more Sabaton soon!
Hello, gents! To clarify a couple of things:
First, the "Night Witches" is one of the most accurate records about any unit, in any army, during World War II. The reason? Soviet military protocols. Those protocols dictated that any service member who was merely MIA was not to be awarded any military service awards. This was due to the nature of the service member's fate being unknown, as it was not known if they were KIA, deserted, or simply walked away. The Commissar of the Regiment went out to find where her girls had gone down so that they would get any awards they were due for their service, even if awarded post-humously. In the process, she created a record of her unit that still stands as to how accurate it really is.
This story is now truly history, as the last Night Witch died in 2017.
May their bravery and sacrifice, their service to the cause of fighting Nazi Germany, never be forgotten.
Edit: One of my favorite tracks by Sabaton is Defense of Moscow, about how the Russians defended Moscow during the culmination of Operation: Typhoon during Operation: Barbarossa in 1941.
Cheers Gents. We'll carry on :)
Perfect. Thank you for the support
Great reaction 😎
It’s a very touching story for sure!!
If you want to continue on the Russian theme with Sabaton I can recommend ”The attack of the dead men” also a crazy story!
Please also react to ”The Lion from the north” and ”Poltava”, songs from the same album as a ”En livstid i krig” (about the 30 years war). That album focusing och the rise and fall of the Swedish empire and are considered to be the best album from Sabaton. So why not learn some swedish history and react to the whole album from start to end 😉
We wish we had more time to do this! One day we will do full albums but we do have day jobs!
Yes, "Lion from the North". Good choice!🤘😉
@@TheThamesmen No worries 😉 I have time to wait 😂 I also have a job to take care about!
BTW Sabaton do have a song called Stalingrad (why wouldn’t they)!
History we were never taught. Fantastic tribute. Phenomenal band! I homeschooled my kiddo and I used Sabaton History as the starting point for my teen's grade 11 History classes. It is a huge challenge to get historical information without the North American bias. Sabaton does an excellent job of shining a light on historical moments most have forgotten. My father laughed at your description of your teachers - his also had all served and he got them four or five years after they'd been back in Canada. One of his had been on the River Kwai.
Wow the story of the river Kwai or the bridge over the river Kwai is incredibly tough and sad. The generations before us saw and experienced things we have no idea about
I'm crying. Thank you for your reaction and your respect. Hello from Russia 🤗
Hello Russia. Thank you for your support and an amazing piece of history from your past. They were some seriously brave ladies
*Soldier of 3 Armys* Sabaton ! (Lauri Törni/Larry Thorne Soldier who serve in 3 Armys Finnish,German,US !! John Wayne playd Larry in movie *Green Barrets* !!
The fact that the commissar took it on herself to find the crashside of each of 'her girls' always gets me.
Sabaton are the best teachers of history PERIOD!! You get to experience what those people (most lost to history) went through and suffered. Forget all the "important" people found in those dusty history books, this is real life stories that relate to anyone. Here as a vet I can't comprehend the valor and grit these women had. Flying old bi-plane of wood and cloth that were a match waiting to ignite and taking every disadvantage and turning it in their favor. Lest we forget they made multiple bombing run on each duty run they were involved in. Thank you for your service...now get lost while we enjoy the Victory Parade you made possible...I am sure these women could of flown whatever planes were used in the parade, but no lets forget about them. Luckily Sabaton works at finding these heroes and puts their story to music to teach you about real history. Next gents try the very sad Price of a Mile (about the British battle at Passchendaele where 500,000 men on both sides died to gain 6 miles of the front) (ua-cam.com/video/LOrlRvBV59E/v-deo.html). Great reaction BTW!!!
Man thanks for this.... Thanks for supporting our channel and more Sabaton soon!
Girl Power!! Long before it became a catch phrase too! WoW that really is a Banger Guys....Thankyou!
Serious girl power you would not want to mess with!
Their job was to harass the enemy, disrupt supply and most importantly, stop their soldiers from sleeping and relaxing. A few weeks of bombing with zero warnings like that would ground anybody down!
Sounds like they did their job but I’m not sure you can call it a job!
Great reaction G & A! Not much better than waking up and seeing Ms. Loren. 🤓Amazing story and one of my favorite songs from Sabaton. Be well guys!
Good morning to you! Saboton continues to be an amazing actor to follow. We hope you have a great 2022 I look forward to continuing to chat and see you here.
"We grew up in the 80's..." .. gosh you guys make me feel old. My father was in the US Air Force and I lived . .grew up a bit . at RAF Upper Heyford England from 1960-1962
Heyford. Solid farming land
@@TheThamesmen Ha. Remember very little (10-12 yrs old) . but remember green fields and white sheep :) .. spent a month in Deddington, Banbury, UK .. a month in a hotel until we got on base housing. The village would be completely alien now .. all the shops were in the first floor of residences .. a completely different world.
Great reaction, guys. Thank you. As much as I love these animated story videos, you should check out the official live version of this song. It's awesome.
And you should definitely do a reaction to Seven pillars of wisdom, one of Sabatons best songs, in my opinion. Cheers
We will!
Hello Alex and George! Every time I hear a Sabaton song for the first time, I like what I hear. I'm impressed with Joakim Broden's song writing. To know the back story, and to see it come to life in the video is not only impactful, it's thoroughly enjoyable. 😃🖤
It is an amazing balance between music and history and production. It is completely fascinating
Such an emotional piece, as "No Bullets Fly". As a Finn, love to see you reacting to Sabaton "Talvisota". It is about Winter War between Finland and Russia in 1939. Russia tried to occupy Finland in few days, but it did not go as planned. My dad fought in that war.
Here is the link: ua-cam.com/video/Pn-FIFcNwBM/v-deo.html
Noted and Thanks for being here and supporting our channel.
There is a russian youtuber called Radio Tapok he makes coves of at lot of different western bands and translates their lyrics to Russian, some of his most popular videos have ben of Sabaton songs, and at the latest concert in Russia Sabaton had him on stage with them. Last year he made an original song in the style of sabaton called "Defense of Moscow", and Sabaton made their own cover of that shortly after (both versions are serious bangers).
will check when I get time. Thanks
just brilliant!
And the band are pretty good eh!
What a great surprise waking up this morning seeing this thank you guy’s 🤟 I think you should check out “to hell and back” or “Attack of the dead men” “82nd all the way” , “soldier of 3 armies “ also doing one of there live performances would be awesome they are great live.
So many good tracks to check out. Just wish we had more time :-)
I love this story! Thnx for a good and funny reaction video of the Night Witches. Friday they will release a new single Soldier of Heaven! I am so looking forward to it! :D
Can you track on Friday? Maybe will have to get the breaking news set out!
@@TheThamesmen I'm not sure when on Friday. I think early afternoon London time.
@@TheThamesmen ua-cam.com/video/LYI3eegIJlI/v-deo.html
Once again gents that was FAB. You just can't go wrong with Sabaton. You are responsible for my obsession as you introduced me when you reviewed Bismark. So many songs I could recommend for review, some of my favourites are : Last Stand, The final Solution ( heavy on the heart due topic it covers) but not to be missed. Defence of Moscow, Uprising, Resist and Bite, Winged Hussars, 82nd All The Way (Cracking tune), Fields of Verdun, Great War (Epic), Seven Pillars of Wisdom, Steel Commanders, The Lost Battalion and of course The Blood of Bannockburn due being from Scotland. New song dropping on the 7th as well. Keep up the great work 👍 👏 🤪🏴🎶🎶🎸
Noted - Thanks!!
Great reaction. I love this song. The ending always chokes me up.
It was a great track! Thanks for supporting us and have a a fab weekend.
Sending both of you,
Much Love 💙💛💙
Sending BIGGER love!!
I think you would like the song Rorke,s Drift, especially the video using clips from the film.
We will check it out and thank you for the suggestion. That movie was a great film as I recall
"Screaming Eagles" is an older one but another great one from Sabaton, with another well-made video to boot. It tells nearly the entire history of the 101st Airborne during World War II, but largely centers around their performance at the Battle of the Bulge when they were cut off and completely encircled by the Germans (who outnumbered them more than 2 to 1). The Germans sent a message to their commander demanding they surrender or be annihilated, and the exchange remains one of the most iconic in American history.
"To the U.S.A. Commander of the encircled town of Bastogne:
The fortune of war is changing. This time the U.S.A. forces in and near Bastogne have been encircled by strong German armored units. More German armored units have crossed the river Ourthe near Ortheuville, have taken Marche and reached St. Hubert by passing through Hompre-Sibret-Tillet. Libramont is in German hands.
There is only one possibility to save the encircled U.S.A. troops from total annihilation: that is the honorable surrender of the encircled town. In order to think it over a term of two hours will be granted beginning with the presentation of this note.
If this proposal should be rejected one German Artillery Corps and six heavy A. A. Battalions are ready to annihilate the U.S.A. troops in and near Bastogne. The order for firing will be given immediately after this two hours term.
All the serious civilian losses caused by this artillery fire would not correspond with the well-known American humanity.
The German Commander."
"To the German Commander:
NUTS!
The American Commander"
That sounds one hell of a story. I do hope we can get to it soon
Ha - I know this story but never knew a band wrote about it. Will check it
BTW guys, they have a song about the Falklands war called ”Back in control”
Ohhhhh NICE... I hope the Penguins get a mention!
Nice reaction.
Another fantastic reaction. Never knew anything about those women. Listening to music and learning about history....great combination. I wish you guys a great 2022!!
More to come! Thanks for being here and supporting our channel.
14:52 - each place would do around 10-15 missions per night. That's why so many sorties.
Also note that they were flying an OPEN cockpit plane during Russian winter. All night. And for navigation they had a map and a compass - that's it. No radio, no parachutes.
If you want to see a documentary (eng sub) with Nightwitches' interviews:
ua-cam.com/video/y-5cVgjJZu4/v-deo.html
AMAZING!!! A different era. Thanks for being here, we never take it for granted. More soon!!
Great reaction and as always so fun to see your excitement in these.
Another brilliant song is Rorke's Drift. Not the most popular but there is a fanmade video combining the song and the 1964 film "Zulu", and it just works so well together. Something that you'd definitely enjoy, seeing redcoats defending for their lives to amazing music. It's a chorus that will be stuck in your heads for weeks.
Isn’t that the film with Michael Caine delivering some classic lines?
@@TheThamesmen That's the one!
Best way to learn history.
Been a long-time Sabaton listener and happy you guys are following this wonderful path.
Thanks Peter - Take care and more soon. Thanks for being here and supporting our channel.
Another great reaction, chaps. And all the best for 2022.
Happy 2022 to you too. Thank you for your support we really appreciate it
Love you guys, you are great and you always put a big smile on my face.
Greetings from Sweden and yes you must do defense of Moscow, you will love it!
Hello Sweden!!
Nice reaction guys. I;ve learnt more history from Sabbaton than I did at school👍❤
It should be taught in school this way!! Thanks for supporting our channel and more Sabaton soon!
This was awesome. I am really enjoying Sabaton, especially the ones about the World Wars. My old man lied about his age so he could sign up, luckily for both of us, the war ended before he finished training! He would have hated this music but enjoyed the story. I loved the guitar in this, felt it really set the scene for the soaring planes. I'm all for this history lessons in music, more please!
Not only is it great music but we catch up on all our history! I do wish my history teacher school had taught us this way. We too are glad your father survived his youthful Ways!
The only thing i know about Sabaton is the drummer is married to Floor Jansen from NightWish ! But this is really awesome !! You really have to admire these young ladies for what they did !!! And the song is Awesome as well. Thanks and Great Reaction =)
Cool, thanks!
R.I.P. Major Marina Raskova, Hero of the Soviet Union, Mother of the Night Witches
Not kidding!
Not gonna lie, the new thumbnail is great but i didn't recognise it at first and nearly missed the video. Glad i caught it though. If i were to recommend a Sabaton song to listen to. Would probably be Defense of Moscow, Or Fields of Verdun, Or Shiroyama. Pretty much anything on The Last Stand and Heroes Albums is great.
Glad you like new Thumbnail. New look for 2022. Hopefully not too many people miss the vid because of the change
I'm sure people will catch on within a couple days and go back to see what they missed, Apparently Sabaton's releasing Soldier of Heaven at the end of the week, so there'll probably be a spike of people looking for reactions to it.
You guys are always good for a laugh and fun informative time.
Sabaton is great with their history lessons
Be well!@!!
A Russian Banger is Sabaton's cover of "Defence of Moscow!"
Noted! Thanks for supporting our channel and more Sabaton soon!
This was excellent as a music video. I found I was drawn in by the video and sound track.
I will have to play the song on its own to see if it stands on its own for me.
Thanks.
Take care
I've come for Sabaton and I've found gold :)
You really should listen to The Price of a mile next
Ok. Noted
Love you reminiscing around the camp fire! When you react to Fields of Verdun, can you also include the instrumental video by Apocalyptica.
Maybe one day we should do a show from a real campfire!
@@TheThamesmen Absolutely.
Chapeau! brilliant, but you still havent reviewed "Cliffs of Gallipoli"
Not yet! Take care
So great 😀
It really is everything they do is great
@@TheThamesmen
A tip
Sabaton - 82:nd all the way
Amaranthe - 82:nu all the way
Try to have the subtitles on next time, it is a little easier to follow theese great lyrics then.
Do Carolus Rex and learn a little about our swedish history
Great channel!!!!
Hello. We do but when we post here YT remove them. Sorry. Take care!
Great reaction :-) Try Sabaton winged hussars ;-)
Added! Thanks for being here and supporting our channel.
Cliffs of Gallipoli!
its an early song, pretty raw, not much of the epicness...but it fits well to the horrible desaster
Noted and thanks
Sabaton should be mandetory in school all over the world
Right here - TRUTH! Thanks for being here and supporting our channel.
you mentioned stalingrad, Night witches actually fought on the stalingrad front and then chased the Germans all the way back to Germany.
Thanks for being here an checking the vid out. Be well. G&A
SABATON (Attack of the Dead Men) next then 😉. Maybe an 2 in 1 Tapok cover version of it that sabaton let him release before they did release they Video that was a super nice thing I think 😁. Oh and there is a surprise in the video uuuuh! 🤐.
Noted and Thanks for being here and supporting our channel.
You should also check out Defence of Moscow.
Ok. Thanks
Each mission of the Night Witches was essentially a suicide mission. They carried no parachute, if the plane was landed, crashed behind enemy lines they were to fight to the death ( that’s why they had pistols), because if they escaped & made it back thru enemy lines they were immediately arrested, interrogated by the Commander and then executed for being a spy( this was the same for Russian male pilots). Russia was in a do or die fight and just could not take the chance. 40-1 Live at Woodstock Poland is a must see and is my suggestion. Stay Safe Rock On!🙏🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
It is almost inconceivable what people would do to survive. What an incredible history and story. Thank you for your suggestions and your support
Yes how!? I heard this was a hard story to get information about, not easy to get information out of old Russia/Soviet from what i heard.
But they did do an amazing job :)
They do tell a great history. Fascinating how they find and highlight the stories
Hello for great flat picking check out Billy Strings and Tommy Emmanuelle playing guitar boogey. Great guitar duel as they play off each other in the second song.
Hi Rick - Hope you're well. Noted - Thanks
Hi guys. I have not heard a bad Sabaton song yet, so take your pick🤘🎸🎸
I remember Joe 90, I loved the car but hated every thing else apart from the theme tune. Ah Memory’s 👍
Love the 90 theme tune... be well
There is a parallel band... Eluveitie is a Swiss band that is a bit focused on the Roman invasion of Gaulia. To the point, a fair chunk of their work is performed in Helvetian Gal, a very dead language. The band frontman, Chrigel Glanzmann has worked with linguistics professors to try to as much as can be known get the phrasing and pronunciations right. They have songs that are about particular players, both from the Gauls and the Romans, particular battles, or day to day mythos and doings of the Gaulish people. They are at last count an 8 piece, with traditional metal instruments and traditional, including a hurdygurdy. Some stuff is quite metalcore, a bit of an earhole assault, some is middle of the road, some is ballady. Inis Mona, Thousandfold or Omnos would be good starting places with the official videos.
Wow that is crazy eclectic. It is amazing what this world can produce! Thank you for the information as is fascinating.
You guys are on your way to being a Sabaton channel! Methinks you like them. 😉. Allot.
We do like them a lot you noticed!
Even better, the historians I've seen react to Sabaton's videos say they are "extremely accurate." They do it right.
I'd check out the official for Attack Of The Dead Men ua-cam.com/video/-AFdwoyNT24/v-deo.html it, this, and a couple of stories I heard from a Russian soldier himself have thoroughly convinced me that Russian forces do not fuck around - I pray we never end up at war with them.
Noted! Thanks for supporting our channel and more Sabaton soon!
Hi can you reac on sabaton devil dog
We can add it to our list for sure. Thank you for the suggestion
Movie material...
You are right it would make a great movie
The cover war history in a none judgmental way. The germans of ww2 are spoken of in the same light as the allied forces. Look at smoken snakes or the soldier of 3 armies
This is very clever how they highlight the stories without bring politics into it
🌹🌹🔥🌍🕊🇷🇺
Thanks for the support. 😀😀😀👍
Maybe SKYND is the only one who incorporate history, but they incorporate the bad kind of history...
Best forgotten!
operation CROSSBOW
Love. It :) that’s it.
YES!!!
