There is more to this than a great opening song at a huge festival.
They are serious history buffs and every line of every song of theirs is historically accurate.
They are not glorifying war, they are telling true stories that have happened, from every side.
During and after WWII, both the allies and the later occupying Soviet union, told that the Polish had been weak and cowardly during the war. With the songs 40:1 and Uprising, Sabaton has rewritten the history books, giving Poland back their deserved pride and respect. As a sign of gratitude they were, on stage, given a sword by the Arch bishop(!) with the words "The church bows to a metal band"!
Sabaton are regarded as national heroes in Poland and this crowd shows it. The fact that this song is about the German invasion of France doesn't affect that.
They even have a song about 3 Brazilian soldiers (Arlindo Lúcio, Geraldo Rodrigues and Geraldo Baêta) who died in Montese, Italy fighting for the Allies side (yeah! Brazil took part in the WWII) against a whole German platoon. After running out of ammo and being told to surrender (let's be fair), those 3 guys ignored the foe's plea and ran against the Wehrmacht troops with their bayonets attached to their rifles not fearing the certain death. The Germans, of course, shot them to death. But understanding their bravery, value and sacrifice, their commander ordered that 3 graves were dug to bury their deceased enemies and put a plate: "Drei Brazilianischen Helden" (Three Brazilian Heroes).
Pointless to tell that almost none knows about it in Brazil, last time Sabaton came to Brazil, they got a medal from the army. I am sure they got all these homages around the world with their work of Historical rescue. And that is pretty worthy, imo.
Yeah they are historically correct if you buy the history written by the victors.. LOL..!! So the truth level is about zero null and void in most of their songs...!!
I doubt that they are not glorifying war. Yes their claim is "we only tell what happened". But the way they do it (packing it into heroic sounding hymns) and making people party, sing along and have a good time, has the effect of glorifying war in the end. Intentional or not, they are glorifying war.
@@markusnaher56 Semantics but Rock- and metal music is designed to provoke a certain type of emotions. They could be singing about dragons and demons or football but they chose true stories that in them selves have a lot of emotion. Ones personal interpretation is very much up to preconceptions but they are not "intentionally trying to make you feel that war is a good thing". If you feel that way then read the lyrics carefully and look at their history channel for the backstory of the song.
Or just listen to Dragon force.
Or in short (and also the best description of Sabaton I've ever read, so I had to steal it): Sabaton is like someone screaming a Wikipedia article.
Yes, they are a bit too much into war for my taste. Yes, they also have songs putting the emphasis on the terrors of war and they often tell the stories of the brave underdogs.
I wouldn't be surprised to find a fair amount of people with varying flavours of weird political ideas among their fans, but I don't think they get people to having those either.
*He's built like a tank!*
Joakim: Oh yeah, it's all coming together.
The greatest compliment she could give to him ✌
If that was unintentional, it was the best remark ever :D haha
Just a perfect response by her. :-)
Joakim: I AM THE PANZER ELITE
They literally own two (prop) Tanks
Sabaton: The only swedish band that can make a polish audience chant about a German tank division from ww2
(Yes,i stole this from another comment section)

Or who can make people from Berlin in Berlin sing Attero Dominatus
@@p3chv0gel22 they are yet to make people on the hood sing bismark....
@@matsv201 now you basically dared them to trie...
@@Rahqui Well... all 3 survivors is dead now.. so... well
That feeling you are having IS metal. Its the adrenaline, the passion, the speed, the aggression. Its that pent up EVERYTHING being released.
Youve found your release my friend 😁
I love you and your wholesome comments
Straight on the point GALACTICRIMINAL.
yooo it's ya boi
like the actual ghost division XD
[throws devil horns in the sky and head bangs]
Sabaton is very popular, even beloved, here in Poland. This was the first time they played on Woodstock and probably the last as the organizers said they drew too big a crowd and more people showed up than they could reasonably provide security for (Woodstock is free).
I myself have been to their shows three times and they have always such a great energy and chemistry on stage! Actually chatting away with the audience and joking around. One time, during concert, Joakim (the vocalist) actually said "Wait a minute, we came here to play heavey metal not to talk to you people!" :D
And they always draw such multi-generetional crowds, from childrens to seniors. And on smaller venues, they tend to grab some small kid from the audience, get them onto the stage and take pictures, and have them "perform" for a song, get a ride on that tank of theirs (yes, that is an actual tank they travel with).
They're just super awesome.
I just got into Sabaton after watching a documentary on the winged hussars ... which strangely enough finished off with Sabaton - Winged Hussars. I can picture a crowd of Poles going absolutely crazy when that song plays ;D
@@stoissdk oh yrsh. and don't even get me started on Uprising or 40:1 :D
They challenged the narrative that Poland just rolled over. As we know, they didn’t, they cavorted themselves as well as any nation would, but were simply overwhelmed.
Old joke: Why did God put Poland between Germany and Russia?
No other nation could survive that.
@@Minotaur-ey2lg hahha there's something to that :D
@@Minotaur-ey2lg you are provobaly thinking of france
Who would win?:
- "Je suis monté" line
- 2000 men and 50 000 tons of steel
- 500 samurai
or
Joakim's knee
Joakims knee because he is a metal machine and looks like a tank (her words)
Daddykims knee, no question🤘
And his knee would still destroy the other two.
"He's built like a tank."
Funny you should mention that. I think Joakim's goal in life is to become a tank! But seriously, my wife and I have been to 4 of their concerts, and we've never left feeling cheated. They bring it and give their all EVERY TIME!
I believe in an interview Joakim said that he's always wanted to be a tank when he was a kid. So now he sings songs about tanks hoping to eventually turn into one.
That was a few years ago so my memory is hazy
He might not be a tank yet but he is a metal machine
I think they actually own two tanks
Gossip side....the actual drummer(not the guy in this one), is Floor Jansen's husband😁
The drummer in this video is the current drummer of the Gothenburg-based Hard-Rock band Mustasch.
Why is this everyone's favorite fact?
@@madogthefirst
Because Floor is The Best.
I would recommend you to listen to "Carolus Rex" and compare the song in both the Swedish and English version.
Yes that is great idea.
En Livstid I Kreig/a lifetime of war is also great
Do
this this a hundred times this
@@bane_0f_heroesx226 The lyrics makes soldiers cry.
The reported numbers vary because when crowds get this big, that's what happens. There's 600.000 to 800.000 people there. The one I would suggest to you would be 40:1 from the same concert. The reason? The battle that song is about took place where the audience and stage are now standing. It's about Polish soldiers, performed in Poland to a proud Polish audience. If you can find the extended version where after the song finishes the entire audience sings their national anthem, even better. I barely connect to music, and this performance knowing these things gives me shivers.
Also this Concert took Place on Polands national day.
@@argantyr5154 actually the day that Warsaw uprising started August 1st
Six hundred or six hundred thousand?
@@rehobothbitege4560 600k
@@krzysio53a thanks
*I highly recommend from Sabaton: "Bismarck", "Fields of Verdun", "Shiroyama", "Sparta", "Cliffs Of Gallipoli", "The Red Baron", "82nd All The Way", "To Hell And Back",........*
Smoking Snakes...
"Carolus Rex", "Primo Victoria", "Angels Calling", "Metal Crüe", "The Art of War", "The Price of a Mile", "Wehrmacht", "Talvisota", "White Death", "Firestorm", "Swedish Pagans", "Ruina Imperii" (Swedish only), "Killing Ground", "The Lion From the North", "Night Witches", "Resist and Bite", "No Bullets Fly", "Hill 3234", "Last Dying Breath", "The Future of Warfare", "Seven Pillars of Wisdom", "Great War" and "The End of the War to End All Wars".
"En livstid i Krig" (A lifetime at War) - live from Gothenburg from the Great Tour, in Swedish but English captions embedded. Amazing performance and the crowd makes every Swede proud to the core.
Definitely Bismarck!
@@tntfreddan3138 Definitely Carolus Rex, especially if she's more into "melodic metal"
"He's built like a tank"
Joakim Broden is a man who literally walked hundreds of miles from one gig to another in a week because he lost a drunken bet. Yeah he's kind of a beast
"Punching in the face with a lot of energy!" There is Power Metal to you in a nutshell!
The best about Sabaton is the Idea behind the lyrics. My wife is Polish. And I ended up Loving Poland! Every time I listen to 40 to 1, Uprising... Jeysus, makes me want to cry!
Like me when I listen to the Carolus Rex album (I'm Swedish). It makes me wanna cry. So many feeling it evokes!
As a german, whatever i could say now would sound wrong
@@p3chv0gel22 Nope. Rommel were and are still very respected. Also Sabatons song "No bullets fly" are about a german pilot escorting an allied bomber that are barely operational out of harms way since there are no honor in killing a target that cannot defend itself.
I’m a 66 year old metal/head I’m obsessed with this band. Discovered them about one year ago ( Floor Jansen husband is the Drummer). I’m going to compare Nightwish to Saboton in this way- Their Lyrics/sound/ performance is All the message. They are not political their message is historic heroic sacrifices of soldiers throughout history. When have you ever heard these words to describe metal-Angelic-dreamy-beautiful Nightwish, Saboton-Intelligemt-inspirational Their live performances are epic but their videos of their songs are powerful, educational, & are sometimes tough to get thru they are that good! Try the Videos of, Price of a Mile, Metal Machines, Night Witches( Soviet female pilots), Winged Hussars( elite polish Calvary). They are so passionate about historical moments & accuracy that they have Saboton History, I ask you to check them out, you don’t have to review this on your channel( although that would be awesome) but for your own education into metal being intelligent, thoughtful, inspirational, angelic, hard pounding riffs & sounds. Love your thoughts & knowledge of music, sounds & performance stay safe be well & ROCK ON!🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
Respect from Poland 🇵🇱 I AM 56 only😁👍
I’m not Polish and don’t speak Polish but him shouting out in Polish was one of the most epic things I’ve felt lol
Here's the history behind the song. And yes, Sabaton have their own history channel. ua-cam.com/video/uGd1h6pchzM/v-deo.html
And the "Split" the guitarists do is called a "Power stance"
Something a little softer: En livstid i krig (A lifetime of war) The version from The Great Tour, Live Gothenburg would be my suggestion, with subtitles on.
"built like a tank"
Joakim: "TANK? did someone say TANK????"
My goodness, do these dudes bring it! Wow! :0
Joakim doesn't have a classical vocal background (he was originally the keyboardist and only going to be the band's lead singer until they found a dedicated vocalist) but in the late 00s he really developed his voice and has only improved since.
I still think the 2006 album is amazing.
And from being a competitive swimmer in his youth he's got great lung capacity to build on.
He's not only built like a tank, he also dresses like one. It looks like he's literally wearing armor plating on his chest.
He is a metal machine
There is now a new drummer at Sabaton Hannes Van Dahl and that is Floor Jansen's husband, 😍 love from the Netherlands 🇳🇱🌷🙋🏼♀️😘
I am definitely going to check out a video that he is in. I've enjoyed getting to know him through Floor's channel during the quarantine. What lovely people they both are!
@@TheVoiceLoveCo 🇳🇱🌷😍Thank You 🤗
@@TheVoiceLoveCo great tour , sabaton -red baron with hannes van dahl on drumms
ua-cam.com/video/GmqVpskrLsQ/v-deo.html
And se lives in Sweden🇸🇪
@@TheVoiceLoveCo I strongly recommend the power ballad "A lifetime of war" / "En livstid i krig" with subtitles on. It will give you goosebumps for sure!!!
ua-cam.com/video/WBs3G1PvyfM/v-deo.html
Joakim was actually their keyboard player at first and was only going to be their vocalist temporally till they could find another one. Nearly 20 years later there he still is and honestly I couldn't imagine anyone else being their singer. It's also good to hear you giving him compliments on his voice considering he doesn't think he is a very good singer.
As far as suggestions for further songs to react to I'd suggest "40:1" live at Woodstock 2012 (same show as this one) or if you want something recent I'd say "uprising" live in Warsaw or "the Red Baron" live in Berlin both from The Great Tour. If you're ever curious about the historical events that inspired their songs you might want to check out their history channel on UA-cam, they do have a lot of interesting information on there.
He has a "army commander general sound" about him. Joakim sings like he's barking orders at his army (crowd) through a megaphone. And the band brings the energy to match. And it works perfectly.
@@senditkevin I just watched a interview with him and thats exactly what he said, he said he sounded like a drill sargent!
@@nuk3407 Yup. It works perfectly. I think i know which interview. Was it with Elizebeth from The Charismatic Voice?
I would highly recommend checking out En Livstid i krig live, it is a more recent video and while Sabaton does a lot of powerful songs, this is a ballad that has two variants with different lyrics. In Swedish, which is the name of the song I listed, it is from the perspective of a Swedish soldier in the 30 years war, in english A Lifetime of War, it is from the perspective of an outside observer wondering how humanity itself can continue after 3 decades of brutal, cruel warfare never before seen on such a scale and not surpassed in brutality and casualties until WW1.
Edit: Note if you do En Livstid I Krig live, put on the subtitles so you can see the English lyrics and get that side of the story.
Very good reaction respects from North italy
Hi Christi These guys are great. They have their own history channel. One guys talks about the story and one of the band members tell about the music. Im glad you're having fun.
Don't mess with this band.
They. Brought. Their. Own. Tank.
The tempo is so high because of the division the song was singing about. The ghost division was a german tank division that got their nickname for moving so fast both german and allied HIGHCOM had no idea where they were
You’re adorable. That pure adrenaline rush along with the unparalleled talent is what has we metal heads addicted. Thanks for the great reaction
As a veteran, Sabaton is one of my two favorite bands of all time. I often listened to them on my way to work (I was an artilleryman). Their music got me pumped for the day. I would listen to their songs about soldiers in the Army Tradition, such as Audie Murphy and Alvin York. They sing about the 101st and 82nd and everything in between. Perhaps my favorite song of theirs is Carolus Rex (English Version). And when I really need an adrenaline push I listen to Sparta.
Oh, Audie Murphy, To Hell and Back is fking fire, my fav song
Fields of Verdun is their best piece
How ever play sabaton for there trops will win the war.
"...To prepare for a concert like this, you're on a treadmill singing the entire set..."
Confirmed. Christi ready for Rammstein - Du Hast (live version in Paris) ^^
Yup it's just necessary now. If you like crowd control and male vocals and great staging.
"He who stops learning is old... he may be 20 or 80..." (Henry Ford). Let me start with this quote - anyone following your channel will quickly realize that you are very far from being old - no genre is too exotic for you not to make a reaction video about it. And that's a good thing - stagnation is regression and you have to avoid that at all costs in these times.
Sabaton is power metal and nobody embodies this better than Joakim. He is so full of energy and brings it on stage. It is always a pleasure to see this band on stage. Not only that they often give a history lesson - no, the music is audible and melodic. Joakim has a style of his own, and even that is not self-evident in today's world - in which more and more mainstream is being ironed out. I love Metal because it is honest and has a good fanbase. Metalheads always stand together, check out the big festivals - it's always a pleasure to be part of something like that. Hopefully next year again.
Sabaton is definitely worth a closer look - be it the older tracks like the one about Swedish history. I would perhaps advise you to start with the older things, into something with something like that: ua-cam.com/video/WBs3G1PvyfM/v-deo.html -- this live recording is from sweden, their home country. I promise you goosebumps over goosebumps
There are so many great songs from them i would reccomend Bismark For the video its epic, Livstid i krig from Ghothenburg you would need subtitels for it, final solution its a crying song, Night witches from Great tour 2020 and the new video Lion from the north
Great recommendation for her. Great song.
I believe the official video on UA-cam for En livstid i krig has a subtitle track (in English) for it that can be activated.
@@Zandman26 I think so to. I love that song. Would be so fun if she reacts to it first the Swedish version and after that the English and compere them
Let's talk about theory for a second why this song feels like it's a fright train slamming into you. It's that way by design, I'll cover the historical value in a second but musically this song is almost all inverted power chords on guitar that have the Fifth added in the bass, F# second fret on a guitar frets 3-5 are the punchiest on the guitar in any tuning. This song lives there so it hits very hard sonically. The pace is tied to the theme. So for the Historical part.
The song is about Erwin Rommel's 7th Panzer division, He was an absolute master of Blitzkrieg, Going so far that even his own high command half the time didn't know where he was. He would hit where no one expected. The speed and surprise tactics were very successful tools to demoralize his enemies, The french started calling them Le Division Fantome, "The ghost division". keeping the theme in mind, a Panzer Battalion whose claim to fame was coming from seemingly nowhere, often behind where the allies thought their lines still were. The pace of the song, that hard hitting feeling is exactly the goal. It represents the speed and chaos of the tactics. Speed, Fury, Organized Chaos.
As many people have pointed out, Sabaton sometimes gets a lot of flak because they don't shy away from telling stories from all sides of the way, There was a quote they have reiterated several times, They just tell the stories without regard to the sides. So there are songs that are from a Nazi side, some from Polish, Some the British sides. They are record keepers though, They chronical and recount events. They absolutely just sing history. The quote from the band is "We don't glorify anything, we just tell stories about things that happened.
"Built like a tank" is the best compliment to give Joakim
Isn't it fun to discover new things? Hope you decide to check these guys out they have exciting concert clips but also gripping music/lyric videos.
Yes, it is! I LOVED this experience!
@@TheVoiceLoveCo suggest song Final solution ....
@@palmanbracht9125 that's an extremely dark song to jump to for a second sabaton song experience - can't recommend it - it's a great song don't get me wrong - but not a great suggestion until you have experienced some more of the band first
If you want to be amazed you should see "Livstid i krig, live in Sweden" Captions turned on since the lyrics makes soldiers cry.
The vocal analysis is one layer of these reactions, but I also just love your openness and enthusiasm for new music. 😄
I recommend Beast in Black - From Hell With Love or Blind and Frozen. The vocalist will amaze you.
Great reaction!! You'll need to see Sabaton - En livstid i krig, live in Gothenburg next.
Hannes, Floor's husband, is the current Sabato drummer but this is a previous drummer. Hannes has mucho muscles and many tattoos and provides backup vocals on some songs.
Awesome reaction! It was such a treat watching the premiere of this video. :)
Thanks for being there, @Logan Kerlee!
Can I recommend Powerwolf? They're in the same genre as Sabaton and are more operatic. The lead singer, Attila, has had classical training and has a beautiful and powerful baritone voice. You can disect so many of their songs just by listening to his voice, not to mention, the guitar, organ, drums! AH! Everything! They're so good! Armata Strigoi is a great test to his voice, so is Stossegbet. I highly recommend them!
Fantastic band, similar in sound, but more of a horror-theme to their lyrical content.
So if you didn’t know, this song is about the 7th panzer division, led by the famous german General Erwin Rommel. They got the nickname “ghost division” by the French as they moved so fast neither German Command nor the french command could keep up with them.
You should react to Sabaton - Uprising (Live woodstock) for his range. And to Sabaton - En livstid i krig ( live from gothenburg) just because it's awsome. :)
Link: ua-cam.com/video/BmerZbDPXns/v-deo.html
I highly recommend listening to Price of a Mile. It's almost the exact opposite of Ghost Division. Where Ghost Division is upbeat and triumphant, Price of a Mile is tragic and mournful, and it really showcases the diversity these guys have in their feel and tone.
A lots of power metal musicians are highly inspired by classical music . Strong epic melodies with clean and powerfull operatic/lyrical vocals.
Essentially symphonic and power metal ARE classical.
Beethoven would go to Nightwish and say "what aren't all musicians like this?" he would probably realize that the 9th Symphony leads fairly directly to Ghost Love Score.
Mozart meanwhile will be scrambling to work with Sharon den Adel on a whole opera, and probably (bad boy) begging to guest on a Maria Brink track as himself but dead again. Chopin will actually join Lovebites and Liszt will try to get Exit Eden back together but settle for a slot on Babymetals backup.
Tchaikovsky and Prokofiev will fight over who gets to do a movie soundtrack with Sabaton.
Stravinsky meanwhile will be asking Marilyn Manson for tips on how to upset prudes & such in a permissive age.
Its actually Powermetal, or in this case, History Metal XD
Lmao
The drummer in this band, is married to Floor Jansen 😍
@@annhelensjostrom9065 well the new drummer, that video is old.
@@_aullik ok
It's heavy powermetal
Fun Fact:
The Woodstock poland Festival (now Pol'and Rock) is one of the biggest open air Festivals in europe and after this concert, Sabaton aren't allowed to play there anymore, because they draw to many people to this, so the Security was just not ready for this. If i remember correctly, the were nearly 550.000 people there on that evening
actually around 700,000 people were there during the Woodstock Festival
He was a professional swimmer in his youth like many other lead singers.
The energy levels are absolutely one of the things in heavy metal that makes the genre so appealing. Personally I love the high energy. About Sabaton: First of all: your pronounciation of the band name was perfect. The singer’s name is Joachim Brodén (yo-ah-keem bro-then). The band sings about historical events and objects in military history. In this case the song Ghost devision tells the story of Erwin Rommel’s 7th panzer division (a tank devision) in WW1, also known as the ghost devision. They got that name for two reasons: the division progressed so fast that both the allied as well as their own army leaders lost track of where they were. The other reason is the amount of dead bodies they left behind while marching on.
The band does not glorify war or violence, consider them to be a musical version of your history teacher. 😉😎
Other suggestions for sabaton: The official video of the song ‘Bismarck’, the official video of the song ‘Fields of Verdun’, the live video of 40:1 (forty to one) from this same concert (woodstock), and the live version of ‘The price of a mile’ from Wacken Open Air 2019. This last song features a great male choir and is very impressive! If you want to get to know the band members a bit better then I can highly reccommend to watch their tour vlogs from last year, as these guys are very funny but most of all, they are nice guys. As a bonus it gives a nice peek behind the scenes of a touring band. I can also reccommend their other youtube channel ‘Sabaton History’. In this channel they publish short, 15 minutes documentaries in which host and historian Indy Neidell explains the story behind he songs.
Fun fact: the current drummer of the band ( not the one you have seen) is married to Floor Jansen!
Fun fact, 9/10 times this is their OPENING song. Let that sink in.
Wow Sabaton! They have good energy. Next Bismarck, live Hamburg or En Livstid I Krig, live Gothenburg.
They brought out the crowd to sing the national anthem, these guys are masters of the crowd.
It was a lot of fun watching your visceral reaction to this! Your analysis was also both interesting and fun! Honestly, Sabaton isn't one of my favorites, but I do recognize their musicianship and you can't deny their fans love them. Honestly, watching you and other reactors discovering modern metal is helping me expand my musical horizons. I've come to understand and honestly appreciate musical styles I never thought would be in my wheelhouse so, who knows, maybe I'll come to love Sabaton!
Wow! I used the word "honestly" three times in that comment! I must have been lying! 😁
I saw them live in San Antonio. Amazing, they bring this same energy and kept it up throughout the whole concert. Their set was about 2hrs. I had just started listening to them at the time. The crowd went nuts when they opened with Ghost Division. Yes, lots of vets and military in the crowd. Like Iron Maiden their songs are very anthemic and you can't help but sing loud and proud!
It is a quality of metal musicians to have an incredible and inexhaustible passion for this music. and of all of us who listen to it and live for it ... Most of the people do not understand
In a way, he does sing classical music.
this is what the concerts at WOODSTOCK looked like.There were 750,000 people. THE CLIMATE WAS GREAT
Sabaton it's all about History this song is about the 7nd Panzer Division under command of Erwin Rommel in the WWII they invade so fast that even the German high command don't know where they was located... That actions give them the nickname of "Ghost Division" Sabaton sings about war History and the storys on those events they are story tellers! I'm a fan of history and Metal so these combination is awesome for me, but don't care if you don't like history with Sabaton the music speech and that is all it matters... I really love your reaction and i hope to seen more Sabaton on your channel a great one is Sabaton Uprising live in Woodstock 2012 of the same show this song is about the Uprising of Warsaw in the WWII... Women, Man and Children fight agains the German Army! And live in Poland is just a blast! so epic!! They make you feel patriot of a country that you don't even born haha that is the Sabaton efect 😆🤘🏻😎🤘🏻 again great reaction and analysis too!
Please do, En Livstid i Krig live from Gothenburg Scandinavium. You will love it.
His name would be pronounced Yoa-kim.
It's a jewish name from the bible, the swedish spelling Joakim, other countries typically go with Joachim or in hispanic Joaquin.
AMAZING HOW HAPPY YOUR ARE YOUR FACE IS GLOWING watching to this Brilliant Vocal plus 500,000 people signin. Plus all conditions in this event just mind blowing. Regards
Christi, in answer to your question about the crowd, there were about 600,000 people who attended the concert. Amazing.
you could do a dual review of "82nd All The Way" Sabaton did the original and and Amaranthe did a cover. Amaranthe have a 3 singers to build some range 1 female with clean vocals one male w cleans and a male with fry and grovels
So happy you reacted to this song sabaton is such a great force in keeping history and its stories alive. Please could you react to (sabaton en livstid i krig) the crowd sings with the band its something beatiful
Always love your reactions and analysis.
I appreciate that!
Now I just wanna rewatch Passchendaele and listen to "Price of a mile"
Queensrÿche - Take hold of the flame (live tokyo). I think you will be amazed by Geoff Tate vocals.
I know I am late to this party, but I had to say this. Do not ever apologize for being "All In". I only get to hear a new song for the first time once. I only get to discover a new band once. Watching a person go through that is then next best thing. It feels like I am sharing something I love with a new friend. Learning about what I am watching is a bonus, but not the main reason I am watching. Keep doing you.
Woodstock in Poland is the largest rock concert, possibly not only a rock concert in the world, which is 3 days long. And usually there are from 500,000 people to 750,000
He is built like a tank because he is a metal machine. Also i bet that this is the greatest compliment for him;)
"En livstid i krig"
live 2020 in Gothenburg with translated undertext and you will get emotional. Veterans reacting on this track is amazed of the feeling he/they express to all of us. Vocal, writing, instruments, expression, performance wooow! You have it all in this ballade. I would be honored if you show and comment this one on your channel. Hugs..
Look at their eyes. They really LOVE their jobs.
Met all the guys in Sabaton about eight to ten years ago when they played two shows in a tiny bar with an audience of 150 people. The shows were one or two years apart.
That was in Poland. About half a million of people at this concert. Try 40 : 1 from the same concert.
This concert is at the largest open air music festival I. Europe, with crowds reaching 750k, names Woodstock poland, since it’s been renamed to pol’and rock, but still draws crowds just as big as the one in the video.
Song is very fitting seeing as how it was about Rommel leading his division while Blitzing through France.
I love your reactions and breakdowns of "Home Free" and you said you want to learn to beatbox! So go to the Home Free page and look up the Adam Rupp Drum Solo and watch to see the most amazing sounds and instruments this man can do! You will be floored!
Some of Sabaton's songs are closer to ballads, such would be "The ballad of bull", "The final solution" or "A lifetime of war" to name a few.
In case you hadn't found out yet, they were playing at Woodstock, Poland, the crowed for 550,000 people
Blind Guardian - The Bard's Song & Valhalla - Live at Wacken Open Air 2016
,please watch it , their songs are so catchy the crowd sing like 60-70% of theyr songs in concerts and to see like 50k+ ppls sing on pitch is somthing...
That is the most viscerally fun video you could ever ask for. Sabaton have so much energy. They never disappoint
I'm subbing, love your style here. Also... you mentioned how he could do classical, react to "En livstid i Krig" (A lifetime at War) - live from Gothenburg from the Great Tour", someone else already mentioned it in the comments. It's not classical, it's still very much sabaton, but it's a slower and (if you turn the english subtitles on) sadder song, but oh so good. Honestly cried to that one the first time, and every time after there's still some eyewatering happening xD... but i digress. I'd honestly encourage you to react to... everything they have xD, several of the ones in this very comment section are awesome. Also, it might not be strictly musical but, Sabaton has a second channel called "Sabaton history" where a band member and a historian go over in deeper detail on the historical event that each song is about, followed by a section where they talk how that particular song came to be. I'd say react to it, but even if no they're quite the watch.
Cheers! :D
please react to En Livstid i Krig, live in gothenburgh, you will like their little softer side and the perspective from the stage is awesome :) Use captions !
Oh this was such a wonderful reaction, well you have plenty of them I do enjoy all your reactions so very much. You are fantastic :)
I am so glad you reacted to this song, it is one of my favourites by this band from Sweden (a swede here myself, and very proud we have this kind of talents making their way in the world)
I saw this band in concert in february just before we needed to social distance, it is a very treasured memory for me. My very first metal concert and it was the very best concert I've ever been to. They had so much energy on stage and I believe everyone in the crowd sang along with the songs. They actually opened with this song, from what I understand they usually do that. I get really excited and feel the blood pump as well by this song.
And I agree with you, I don't know a lot about singing but I do know from experience that walking and singing is very tough to do without getting breathy. And Joakim runs around the stage, keeps the crowd going and sings like he does for two hours. At the concert I saw, he pulled on a gasmask and some kind of tank thing on his back and walked around singing. That was just so impressive, he is a beast indeed.
It very much shows how much they love what they do, they are truly amazing musicians.
If you wanna check out a slower song by Sabaton , how about a lifetime of war, preferably the live version from the great tour. It is a beautiful experience.
Otherwise, I would recommend going for either Carolus rex or Bismarck.
Take care Christie, and thank you for being the wonderful person that you are
I've been a Sabaton fan since 2011 and have seen them live 7 times. Seeing your joy and reaction is what I see and hear sweep through the audience. I can't count how many time I've heard people in the crowd after a show say "They should have headlined" and now they do! Being around hundreds of people that love the same thing I do is a feeling unmatched!
Sabaton recently did a song called Christmas Truce. It really good 10/10 suggest.
Unleash The Archers.... Tonight we Ride.... Vocal Gymnastics at it Best. Great Range and Power.
In Sweden there is this tv show where famous swedish artists compete in different genres every week and one of them gets voted out weekly.
For another male fronted power metal band that I think you'll enjoy the vocals: KAMELOT!
you should listen to the swedish version of "en livstid i krig" by Sabaton, there's so much emotion abd the lyrics made me and a ton of other people tear up
Sabaton is probably my legitimately favorite band. They make me excited, I listen when I'm exercising and the music always pushes me to go a little harder and a little faster. This song is among their best for that, I'd recommend probably as a follow-up Night Witches, the new video they just put out for it gives the full story of who the Night Witches were, and was animated by a pretty cool youtube channel, I believe yarnhub is the name.
If you want to hear something slower by Sabaton, yet just as powerful, I recommend "Purple Heart" and "The Ballad of Bull" by them. "Purple Heart" is a tribute to all American soldiers who've been wounded or lost their lives in combat, and "The Ballad of Bull" is about an Australian stretcher-bearer (medic) during WW II who was awarded the Silver Star by the U.S. for saving the lives of 12 American soldiers.
Also, Corporal Leslie "Bull" Allen's deeds that day inspired the scene in Forrest Gump where he kept running into the killzone to rescue his fellow soldiers.
If you want to hear something more classical out of Sabaton, try The Ballad of Bull. Beautiful, lyrical, and really showcases that sonorous voice.
This 2019 Wacken 2 hour show is fantastic on more than one level. Pär's speech is fantastic and the show is awesome.
This song is actually a bit slower on the record, but they play it faster live for some reason. Which i love
Reasons could include:
When listening to music with a strong percussion beat, the human heart will attempt to match the beat, especially in a live concert like this. The beat is loud enough to actually vibrate your chest.
When you feel emotions like excitement or fear, it causes increased heart rate. When the music increases the heart rate, it causes feedback to the brain: Since you have the side effect from excitement, you must be excited.
This is their opening song for the set, so they want the speed to change the audience heart rate/energy level up quickly. The fast change is more dramatic and again helps set the emotions they want the audience to feel.
And the audience won't fight against those emotions. After all, that's most of the reason they're there.
You should listen to another Swedish band, Ghost. I think Tobias (the singer) have great vocals.
Ghost - Mary On A Cross
Another band with cool vocals are ofcourse Rammstein.
Rammstein - Ausländer
Thank You for reacting to Sabaton! Been in the US. They have Songs that touch me hard to the core! Purple Heart in Memorial Week, Promo Victoria, In the Name of God, In to the 🔥. The attendance was 500 000 plus. In Poland. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
I would suggest 40:1 from the same show, Plus Night Witches, & Winged Hussars.
