The song of the crusader is still with us, the song is saying - but it was always one of greed and evil.

@@tchitcho5169 Saladin is not considered as one of the 10 greats general of all times by military historians. One of the reasons is that Saladin was was quite good at running away. For example after the battle of Montgisard were Saladin's army was destroyed by Balduin IV of Jerusalem or after the battle of Arsuf, where Saladin's army was destroyed by the crusader army under Richard I Lionheart of England. Saladin had the fortune that all his more comptent enemies died before him (Balduin IV / Nur al Din) or had to leave the holy land because of troubles at home (Richard I). In that regards he was like Philippe August of France who also managed to survive all more competent enemies. (Henry II and Richard I of England) and won against a incompetent leader (John without Land)
Funny how the followers of Ishmael and Isaac have been fighting over 2 centuries and have not found the way of peace. One professes to follow a Saviour who was forgiveness, love and peace , yet lusts for the battlefield even with citizens of their own country. Wonder what Abraham would say today. Maybe sending Ishmael away caused a rift that will never be conquered because they never learned to live as brothers.

Although I have liked De Burgh's music for more years than I like to admit, this is the first time that I have actually listened intently to the lyrics. The true magic of this track is contained at the end. The lyrics are 'There is only greed and evil in the hearts of men today. However misguided those before us were, the great driver for them was belief in something above them. Christian or Muslim. Today we slaughter each other for the profits of faceless men.
Exactly, and that is why this is my favourite song. Only when we hear that last verse do we truly understand what he means when he cries, "Jerusalem is lost!"
Very nice though.However,i believe those before us still fough for profits.Difference throughout the centuries is the motive they tell the mass.Before it was religion.Now its leftists and rights..tomorrow something else

What's funny and inaccurate is your spelling. Is there anything Historically accurate ! Listen again to the end.. Yes we all know the generalisation of historical facts to suit statements one side or the other... Bless you for tuning in and making us all aware..! Take care
@@blackswan6175 Thank you for pointing out the misspelling ... and then proceeding to spell an adverb with a capital letter English is my fourth language, so it happens, but your statement is still a little petty. The rest of your statement just doesn't make any sense. I listened to the song hundreds of times. Yes, there is historically accurate and inaccurate art. And as you seem to have misunderstood my meaning: Salah ad-Din took Jerusalem from the crusaders. He never lost it in battle. He lost to Richard at Arsūf and Jaffa, not Jerusalem and he was very much respected by Richard and in turn regarded Richard very highly. There is generalization and there is sheer falsity. Take care
Wow, what an amazing song, I never knew Chris de Burgh did that. The crusaders really deserve a memorial day in all countries, and maybe we need some new crusades and the spirit of the brave crusaders today.
If you read the history of the crusades you would think differently. Most of them were a rag-tag bunch of mercenaries who tended to fight battles with anyone they came across, whether Jews, Muslims or Christians. They killed a lot of innocent people on the way to the holy land. Many of them never got there, choosing to settle in Byzantium instead.
Neither of these Mus lim and Ch ristian zealots that wasted so much resources and lives for their “imaginary all powerful friend” deserve respect…if anything a day to reflect on how humanity fell so behind due to these made up nonsenses…
There is No One Righteous (Psalm 14:1-7) 9What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin; 10As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one: 11There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God. 12They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one. 13Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips: 14Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness: 15Their feet are swift to shed blood: 16Destruction and misery are in their ways: 17And the way of peace have they not known: 18There is no fear of God before their eyes. (Romans 3,9-18)KJV
Love Chris de Burgh and musically this one is great. I understand his aim to meld Protestants and Catholics with this. but he does injustice to Salidan, who from all accounts was an extremely honorable man. No plundering and gave quarter to all who capitulated. Not so much for the crusaders.
This song always takes me back to the mid-80s when I was twenty something. Listening to this album, burning incense, tinkling ankle bracelets and big dreams.
Tomorrow is the feast of the Most Holy Name of Mary. It was made mandatory for all Catholics by Pope Innocent XI in honor of King John Sobieski's victory in Vienna. Dignare me laudare te, Virgo sacrata: da mihi virtutem contra hostes tuos. God bless you bros.
@Gstyle you filthy abdool.If Europe gone crazy now (leftist stupidity) it doesn't mean it'll be like now forever. Btw have you bowed down to your black stone idol today yet?
Great song if a little historically inaccurate. An-Nasir Salah ad-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub (Saladin 1138 - 1193) was a devout muslim,very humble and showed great compassion to his people and to his enemies. Richard I (the lionheart) particapated in the 3rd crusade and was not exactly an example of christian mercy,ordering the execution of 2500 muslim prisoners after the siege of Acre in 1191. Richard I (the lionheart) never actually attacked Jerusalem but did defeat Saladin at the battle of Arsuf 1191.He never returned to England dying at a siege in France.
Such a perfect video, really wonderful and enhances the song to show it at it's finest. Fabulous and, I imagine, huge work and editing . Thank you so much 🙏
I don't agree with that. Chris has produced many more great songs and still does to this day. Listen to 'The road to freedom', 'Spirit', 'Moonfleet Bay', 'Songbird', 'The keeper of the keys', 'Legacy'....
Der Song ist einfach genial. Man sollte nicht immer nur an seinen Glauben denken, sondern einfach die Musik und den Text auf sich wirken lassen. Ich selbst denke, glaube ich, viel zu oft an meinen Glauben. So ist das eine gute Übung für mich. from Germany
I can confirm as a Catholic, that this re-telling of the first Sacred Holy Land Crusader reconquering Jerusalem is more accurate than the thoughts that most people think of the Most Holy Crusades.☦️🏴✝️
Sacred, Holy ??? In whos name, God? Purest war waged for riches on earth, not heaven. By the Catholic church. Murder blessed by Popes and intolerant bigots of Royal Kingdoms. Just saying,, besides, this song is brilliant, Chris is a great Irish talent. Totally anti war and a lover of peace. Seen him in concert in Belfast, the song'Border li e was sung by entire audience of mixed relegion people, not a crusader in sight 😁
Wilt thou a Templar become ? Or a Knight of St John ? So many choices if thy heart be true. Consider it like a foreign holiday - you get to stay in provided accommodation throughout the Eastern Mediterranean - but in return you have to swear holy orders and bear a sword on behalf of His Holiness the Pope - and never give up your vow, or question your orders - on pain of death. If Templar thou seekest - then take credit from the finest families in all of Europe thou shalt, and charge interest thereto, and ye shall find thy reward not only in Heaven but on Earth also, lest ye be accused of heresy when the King of France won't pay up. And unto this I say therefore Templar, bury thy wealth in place far and unknown where no King or Cardinal can find it, or use it without paying due. And thus ye shall create a legend !
I have question why not Christian’s not taking over Jerusalem the holy land again ? Isn’t better to be with you instead Arab and Jewish who can’t stop fighting and they will keep fighting forever I think
He had a Peace treaty written in 1197 , that was the only time Richard the the Lionheart set foot in Jerusalem. I did Late Medieval history ( focusing on the crusades).
Ok kids... this is a good song! However, the Crusaders of old and the current situation in the middle east are hardly related... well except the Muslim factor. Truth, ISIS and Islam in it's purist forms (from centuries back) cannot co-exist with anything. However, the real root of the current issue is poverty, education and exploitation. That is to say that IF the people of Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Iran etc were en masse solvent and educated they would see other options as we have in the west. It was not that long ago that we behaved in similar manner really... however the world was not global and one could only do so much damage with swords! HOWEVER, consider that wealth is behind everything... the top 1% will have 50% of the worlds wealth next year... what does that say of the other 99% that allow this. Perhaps, as repugnant as they are, the thugs are lashing out in the only way they know being emboldened by greedy heretic bastards! We have after all ensured they have stayed at war for the last thousand plus years, fighting for scraps from the western table. HOWEVER in the current, turn it into a parking lot and make the entire region glow, I say! We can find other sources of energy for the next hundred or so years and let Allah or God or whomever you believe in sort out who is innocent and belongs where... do them a favor as life is short a meaningless over there now!
This is probably one of my all time favorite songs. It seems to echo through my soul and speaks to me in ways much deeper than religion. It illistrates the barbarism of humanity and what people will do in the name of their gods. This song is incredible..
@Findlay Robertson I think I would rather believe the majority of scientists, even if they believe in a dead god, than believe in your opinion, do tell me sir, what are your qualifications compared to these scientists?????
Yes but the meaning and the story are everything. My love of this type of thing is very strong , I like the feeling and the history in this kind of story telling, somewhat like broadsword by Ian Anderson. FANTASTIC.
I can understand your comment, and I and I doubt anyone else would argue with that - it's just the whining that bugs me and the fighting over religion. It's pathetic. I like DeBurgh because he doesn't always sing about love and a woman he thinks is sexy in a red dress, oh wait, nevermind ;)
Eurobunneh yes please enjoy Chris and stop arguing about religion before I kill you all with my wrath hahaha kneel before me and kiss my shadow I luv you all
My History teacher introduced me to this awesome artist, whom I saw in concert few years back, by explaining the class about Richard Lionheart and the Crusades. Thanks for the share.
There is good and bad in everyone, this song shows the struggle WE all go through. I'm sorry but I no longer believe in a religion. I do my best to never hurt anyone, religion is a twisted version of a true life, How can a person hurt another. We should be working together. Imagine the results, global peace, and major scientific advance. So many genius people chained to a idea that was thought up centuries ago. Before the right for free thinking.
When I was younger I was introduced the C de B and in particular this track which is immense. The structure is so strong and yet so simple. The arrangement is spot on. He is the master of story telling - that is what it is just a story. The C de B of those days was melodic and adventureous and unrivalled. He reminds me of another great - Elton John who also pushed boundaries early on but now struggles to come up with anything new and interesting these days.
All you who so fashionably like to dis the Crusades and the Crusaders because you are such goooodddd people and so moral and understanding and "hip"...let me just point out to you...centuries of Muslim conquest and piracy led to a European response. Look at the Battle of Tours, for example, and the conquest of Spain and the attacks on the Italian peninsula. You who are so liberal and hip, you better thank God for what the Crusaders did. If it hadn't been for them, for men before then like Charles Martel, for the Knights of St John who fought the battle of Malta after the Crusades and for the victory of Christendom at LePanto, you wouldn't be having a free debate. You'd be under sharia law and bowing to Mecca. May God Bless the Holy Crusaders! Thank you for your sacrifice and your service!!!!
john therealstig The sad thing is you probably patted yourself on the back when you wrote this thinking how it would really get me. I find your comment....sadly amusing...I'll bet if you are honest with yourself you'll admit you've never read any real history about the Crusades. You're parroting the same nonsense without any backing or documentation. I'm sure someone just told you this and you just, well, believed it with the deep mind you obviously have. You poor sap. I hope when Shariah law finally descends on you you'll enjoy yourself. And stand your non-Christian ground.
Jack Sprat "You're parroting the same nonsense without any backing or documentation." ha ha ha very good coming from a thesist your god is imaginary and even if he were not doesn't your 2000 year old book tell you to practise love and understanding? luke 16.31 Do to others as you would have them do to you. You as a believer are a far higher risk of "Gods" wrath for not practising his laws, so presumably now we have identified your sinning you will be looking forward to your stay in hell? To recap You based on 1 comment from me have judged and condemmed me very very christian of you, i am poor sap, dishonest and uneducated. When you freaks start practicing what you preach the world will start to take you seriously (well probably not)
john therealstig I will pray for you. You are a poor sap. I didn't say you were uneducated, just that you had not read about the Crusades. You just proved my point. All you have done is attacked me for believing in God and at the same time you quote scripture. How many faces do you see in the mirror?
Jack Sprat What you said was a clear arrogant and judgmental attempt to demean me and ergo boost your own flagging belief through an assumed intellectual superiority in none believers. You said "believed it with the deep mind you obviously have" incredibly arrogant sarcastic and judgmental comment from you. Its time to practice what you preach. What right do you have to be so judgmental of me? Do you have the right through your belief?
@@pinSjon79 This is a hollywood version of the truth, where the bad arab were chased from the holly city, and the good western men, have saved the world once more. I'd like to take a look at chirs's librairy.
@@pinSjon79 villifying muslims. Speaking from a catholic point of view. Needless to say this is the strongest piece of art speaking about such a huge piece of our collective history. The clash. Before amd evetually leading to the world wars.
@@issamcovers8222 Chris has later on published songs with a more reflected view, for example in 'One world' where he says that believing in God 'doesn't mean that my god is greater than yours, it only means we all have the right to believe, 'cause nobody knows it for sure'. I definitely prefer that point of view to the one in the 'Crusader' lyrics. Nevertheless musically 'Crusader' is a masterpiece.
"What do I do now?" said the wise man to the fool, "I have spent my whole life searching, to find the Golden Rule, Though centuries have disappeared, the memory still remains, Of those enemies together, could it be that way again?" Then the fool said "Oh you wise men, you really make me laugh, With your talk of vast persuasion and searching through the past, There is only greed and evil in the men who fight today, The song of the Crusader has long since gone away.................................................................
+Ashar Pervez He never. He signed a treaty with An-Nasir Salah ad-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub in 2 September 1192 allowing control to remain in Muslim hands but allowed the free passage of Christian pilgrims and traders.
Saladin burns in Hell but Richard the Lionhearted lives in Heaven! The followers of the false prophet have had their last Victory he may win a few more wars but his time is short and his wickedness will come to an end by God`s own hand.
Two wrongs still don't make a right. History only gets worse. Seem's we/they can not let it go. Ever see the movie ARN. ? You like this you'll like that! Check it out. If you get a chance.
In Saladin's defense, no historic source claimed he was a drunk, and even his foes pointed out his magnanimity as a knight in many occasions. Respect to the real artist (chris de burgh).
There is not much to add..every single word tells a story...a truthful one anyway, when Chris writes a song or a brilliant ballad, like this one.. He is not comparable - he is unique in every possible way snd view..❤🎉
That was one of the causes, yes. That, and because they invaded the Byzantine Empire, which was Christian, and the Pope was asked to help defend Christian interests.
When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. Isa 59:19 Stand up and fight people, it's now or never
Fight especially against false prophets, ravening wolves in sheep’s clothing, telling you what you want to hear while stripping you of your humanity on behalf of Satan.
Ok, I resent the end of the song. There is only greed and evil in the men who fight today. I know a UN Peacekeeper. The man does not have a greedy bone in his body. He fights, or rather fought, to try to protect and help people. It is not the men who fight that are filled with greed and evil. It is the men who lead the men who fight. Rwanda, Bosnia, Sierra Leone, Yugoslavia, Serbia, Cambodia, Somalia, he fought in all of them. But the men who lead them forbid interference unless they are directly attacked. So the men who fight watch on as the men who lead order them to stand down and let the innocent get massacred.
@@joshuaplotkin8826 I do believe the reference is more towards those who orchestrate the fighting and not the fighters themselves. Perhaps a soldier dedicates his life selflessly to the service of other in a war, but that war likely sparked from a controversy over territory or money. When it is said that "there is only greed and evil in the men who fight today" it means more the politicians and supposedly great leaders than the foot soldiers.
Since when is saying that christians weren't exactly sweet and innocent, that they were barbaric too making excuses for anyone. Perhaps you do need to learn to read. No one is waxing lyrical. Fact is Saracens were no better or worse than anyone else living in those days. Go ahead twist this too.
Dears ,lets be honest to history , because no one can change what happened , and the truth is that the crusaders didn't return to Jerusalem during the time of Salahdeen even though they tried many times and Jerusalem stayed with the Arab Muslims( who are not heathens as Chris mentioned )for centuries after the death of Salahdeen and not what had been sang in the song . Sorry but , there are historical facts you have to know .
This song was a mish mash of the first and 2nd, maybe 3rd crusade. King Richard did defeat Saladin in battle, and the last battle was pretty epic on king Richards part (not so much for Saladin). But as you stated Jerusalem did not get liberated by king Richard during his time in the crusades. King Richard was able to gain more territory and made a deal with Saladin to give Jerusalem access Christian pilgirms without them being attacked on their way to the holy land. Ironically both king Richard and Saladin were killed by people in their own land and not by foreigners of a different religion.
This is a timeless Masterpiece...right???
agreed
It is ❤
Right

"We are invincible, God is the king,
We are invincible, and we will win!"

I agree - these are the songs I love best from him. This, Spanish Train, The Traveller, A Spaceman Came Travelling. An old fashioned troubador.

Chris De Burgh must be one of the best storytellers in music.
yeah good story only lies but its an entertaining song :)
He is responsible for inflicting Lady in Red upon us and for that I can not forgive him!!!!!
I bought this album in 78 or 79. Hearing it again it's amazing how much of a prog influence it has. This and Spanish Train are his best.

It’s not fake, Saladin did run when he was defeated. He only won when he came back later with more men than the crusaders had.
Two giants during the crusades were: Godfrey of Bouillon and Richard Lionheart!

Listen again to the end.. Yes we all know the generalisation of historical facts to suit statements one side or the other...
Bless you for tuning in and making us all aware..!
Take care
@@blackswan6175 Thank you for pointing out the misspelling ... and then proceeding to spell an adverb with a capital letter
English is my fourth language, so it happens, but your statement is still a little petty.
The rest of your statement just doesn't make any sense.
I listened to the song hundreds of times.
Yes, there is historically accurate and inaccurate art.
And as you seem to have misunderstood my meaning: Salah ad-Din took Jerusalem from the crusaders. He never lost it in battle. He lost to Richard at Arsūf and Jaffa, not Jerusalem and he was very much respected by Richard and in turn regarded Richard very highly.
There is generalization and there is sheer falsity.
Take care

Wow, what an amazing song, I never knew Chris de Burgh did that. The crusaders really deserve a memorial day in all countries, and maybe we need some new crusades and the spirit of the brave crusaders today.
If you read the history of the crusades you would think differently. Most of them were a rag-tag bunch of mercenaries who tended to fight battles with anyone they came across, whether Jews, Muslims or Christians. They killed a lot of innocent people on the way to the holy land. Many of them never got there, choosing to settle in Byzantium instead.

There is No One Righteous
(Psalm 14:1-7)
9What then? are we better than they? No, in no wise: for we have before proved both Jews and Gentiles, that they are all under sin;
10As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
11There is none that understandeth, there is none that seeketh after God.
12They are all gone out of the way, they are together become unprofitable; there is none that doeth good, no, not one.
13Their throat is an open sepulchre; with their tongues they have used deceit; the poison of asps is under their lips:
14Whose mouth is full of cursing and bitterness:
15Their feet are swift to shed blood:
16Destruction and misery are in their ways:
17And the way of peace have they not known:
18There is no fear of God before their eyes.
(Romans 3,9-18)KJV
Love Chris de Burgh and musically this one is great. I understand his aim to meld Protestants and Catholics with this. but he does injustice to Salidan, who from all accounts was an extremely honorable man. No plundering and gave quarter to all who capitulated. Not so much for the crusaders.
This song always takes me back to the mid-80s when I was twenty something. Listening to this album, burning incense, tinkling ankle bracelets and big dreams.
I’m right there with you!
Next time we fight - its side by side
best regards from Vienna
We remember the Bravery of Sobieski and the Winged Hussars - Next time we fight - its side by side, brother together with brother.
I second that and its coming nearer than we think
Tomorrow is the feast of the Most Holy Name of Mary. It was made mandatory for all Catholics by Pope Innocent XI in honor of King John Sobieski's victory in Vienna.

Glad to see this current PC bullshit hasn't deleted a great song by a great singer !
kevchambers1970 amen brother!
Great song if a little historically inaccurate.
An-Nasir Salah ad-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub (Saladin 1138 - 1193) was a devout muslim,very humble and showed great compassion to his people and to his enemies.
Richard I (the lionheart) particapated in the 3rd crusade and was not exactly an example of christian mercy,ordering the execution of 2500 muslim prisoners after the siege of Acre in 1191.
Richard I (the lionheart) never actually attacked Jerusalem but did defeat Saladin at the battle of Arsuf 1191.He never returned to England dying at a siege in France.
There is no historical evidence Franco Norman Richard Lionheart ever even visited England. Myth.
Such a perfect video, really wonderful and enhances the song to show it at it's finest. Fabulous and, I imagine, huge work and editing . Thank you so much 🙏
Saladin was acctually an example to many chritian knights, a great knight and a great leader
Yeah, while I've always loved this song, the depiction of Saladin always felt very off.
Saladin was a heathen bastard
Really? Not just a dirty muslim!!!??
I hate to see how lots of people ( through their comments) are missing the point to this song.
Господи Иисусе Христе, спаси веру Христианскую. Привет из России. Православная.
It was lost and then found again after the fall of ottomans and then gifted to the third party with the title " to whom it may concern".

This is when Chris was an art rocker,rather than a peddler of love songs. This is great!
2 of his best known love songs are on the same record as this, I don't know what point you're trying to make?
@@Mark-nx1zz he became a light pop"ish" sounding artist, ditching some serious direction that is missing from todays music.
I don't agree with that. Chris has produced many more great songs and still does to this day. Listen to 'The road to freedom', 'Spirit', 'Moonfleet Bay', 'Songbird', 'The keeper of the keys', 'Legacy'....
Der Song ist einfach genial. Man sollte nicht immer nur an seinen Glauben denken, sondern einfach die Musik und den Text auf sich wirken lassen. Ich selbst denke, glaube ich, viel zu oft an meinen Glauben. So ist das eine gute Übung für mich.

I can confirm as a Catholic, that this re-telling of the first Sacred Holy Land Crusader reconquering Jerusalem is more accurate than the thoughts that most people think of the Most Holy Crusades.☦️🏴✝️
Sacred, Holy ??? In whos name, God? Purest war waged for riches on earth, not heaven. By the Catholic church. Murder blessed by Popes and intolerant bigots of Royal Kingdoms. Just saying,, besides, this song is brilliant, Chris is a great Irish talent. Totally anti war and a lover of peace. Seen him in concert in Belfast, the song'Border li e was sung by entire audience of mixed relegion people, not a crusader in sight 😁
Ego te absolvo ab peccatis tuis in nomine Christi - but you must fight in Palestine
Wilt thou a Templar become ? Or a Knight of St John ? So many choices if thy heart be true. Consider it like a foreign holiday - you get to stay in provided accommodation throughout the Eastern Mediterranean - but in return you have to swear holy orders and bear a sword on behalf of His Holiness the Pope - and never give up your vow, or question your orders - on pain of death. If Templar thou seekest - then take credit from the finest families in all of Europe thou shalt, and charge interest thereto, and ye shall find thy reward not only in Heaven but on Earth also, lest ye be accused of heresy when the King of France won't pay up. And unto this I say therefore Templar, bury thy wealth in place far and unknown where no King or Cardinal can find it, or use it without paying due. And thus ye shall create a legend !
I have question why not Christian’s not taking over Jerusalem the holy land again ? Isn’t better to be with you instead Arab and Jewish who can’t stop fighting and they will keep fighting forever I think
And it continues to this day.
Wonderful song but alas the spirit of the Crusader can no longer be found in Europe, she is ruled now by godless heathens....
Yep, what Europe needs now is maurading knights pillaging, murdering, and raping from city to city in the name of god, just like in the good ol' days
Just wait a little longer brother, action creates reaction, here in Greece eruption is imminent...
@The Tik Maybe Christian, doesnt mean god is real, man, if god was allmighty would he really let all those honorable Crusaders die?
And why not? If your deity is so powerful, why does he constantly beg for help from his flawed and weak creations?
Actually, Richard the Lionheart never laid siege to Jerusalem. But a beautiful song nonetheless!
+Ruperdepuup then, you don't know..
He led the 3rd crusade vs Saladin.
He had a Peace treaty written in 1197 , that was the only time Richard the the Lionheart set foot in Jerusalem. I did Late Medieval history ( focusing on the crusades).
Ruperdepuup thats true saladin never lost he was a kurd very kindhearted
"There's only greed and evil in the men who fight today, the song of the crusader has long since gone away" it's true
False, actually - even in the song. You'll notice it was the Fool who said this. Don't listen to the Fool, he's a fool for a reason.
Ok kids... this is a good song! However, the Crusaders of old and the current situation in the middle east are hardly related... well except the Muslim factor. Truth, ISIS and Islam in it's purist forms (from centuries back) cannot co-exist with anything.
However, the real root of the current issue is poverty, education and exploitation. That is to say that IF the people of Iraq, Syria, Egypt, Iran etc were en masse solvent and educated they would see other options as we have in the west. It was not that long ago that we behaved in similar manner really... however the world was not global and one could only do so much damage with swords!
HOWEVER, consider that wealth is behind everything... the top 1% will have 50% of the worlds wealth next year... what does that say of the other 99% that allow this. Perhaps, as repugnant as they are, the thugs are lashing out in the only way they know being emboldened by greedy heretic bastards! We have after all ensured they have stayed at war for the last thousand plus years, fighting for scraps from the western table. HOWEVER in the current, turn it into a parking lot and make the entire region glow, I say! We can find other sources of energy for the next hundred or so years and let Allah or God or whomever you believe in sort out who is innocent and belongs where... do them a favor as life is short a meaningless over there now!

When I was younger I was introduced the C de B and in particular this track which is immense. The structure is so strong and yet so simple. The arrangement is spot on. He is the master of story telling - that is what it is just a story. The C de B of those days was melodic and adventureous and unrivalled.
He reminds me of another great - Elton John who also pushed boundaries early on but now struggles to come up with anything new and interesting these days.
Only just found this song . An amazing story teller through his songs.
All you who so fashionably like to dis the Crusades and the Crusaders because you are such goooodddd people and so moral and understanding and "hip"...let me just point out to you...centuries of Muslim conquest and piracy led to a European response. Look at the Battle of Tours, for example, and the conquest of Spain and the attacks on the Italian peninsula. You who are so liberal and hip, you better thank God for what the Crusaders did. If it hadn't been for them, for men before then like Charles Martel, for the Knights of St John who fought the battle of Malta after the Crusades and for the victory of Christendom at LePanto, you wouldn't be having a free debate. You'd be under sharia law and bowing to Mecca.
May God Bless the Holy Crusaders! Thank you for your sacrifice and your service!!!!
And thank you for raping and killing babies and women you are true warriors of Jack's imaginary friend

The sad thing is you probably patted yourself on the back when you wrote this thinking how it would really get me. I find your comment....sadly amusing...I'll bet if you are honest with yourself you'll admit you've never read any real history about the Crusades. You're parroting the same nonsense without any backing or documentation. I'm sure someone just told you this and you just, well, believed it with the deep mind you obviously have.
You poor sap. I hope when Shariah law finally descends on you you'll enjoy yourself. And stand your non-Christian ground.
Jack Sprat "You're parroting the same nonsense without any backing or documentation." ha ha ha very good coming from a thesist your god is imaginary and even if he were not doesn't your 2000 year old book tell you to practise love and understanding? luke 16.31 Do to others as you would have them do to you. You as a believer are a far higher risk of "Gods" wrath for not practising his laws, so presumably now we have identified your sinning you will be looking forward to your stay in hell? To recap You based on 1 comment from me have judged and condemmed me very very christian of you, i am poor sap, dishonest and uneducated.
When you freaks start practicing what you preach the world will start to take you seriously (well probably not)
john therealstig
I will pray for you. You are a poor sap. I didn't say you were uneducated, just that you had not read about the Crusades. You just proved my point. All you have done is attacked me for believing in God and at the same time you quote scripture. How many faces do you see in the mirror?
Jack Sprat What you said was a clear arrogant and judgmental attempt to demean me and ergo boost your own flagging belief through an assumed intellectual superiority in none believers. You said "believed it with the deep mind you obviously have" incredibly arrogant sarcastic and judgmental comment from you. Its time to practice what you preach. What right do you have to be so judgmental of me? Do you have the right through your belief?

@@issamcovers8222 Chris has later on published songs with a more reflected view, for example in 'One world' where he says that believing in God 'doesn't mean that my god is greater than yours, it only means we all have the right to believe, 'cause nobody knows it for sure'. I definitely prefer that point of view to the one in the 'Crusader' lyrics. Nevertheless musically 'Crusader' is a masterpiece.
We will take back the Holy Land ❤
One of the best songs ever written Chris De Burg seen him 3 times Belfast kings hall 1 of many great songs he has wrote .
"What do I do now?" said the wise man to the fool,
"I have spent my whole life searching, to find the Golden Rule,
Though centuries have disappeared, the memory still remains,
Of those enemies together, could it be that way again?"
Then the fool said "Oh you wise men, you really make me laugh,
With your talk of vast persuasion and searching through the past,
There is only greed and evil in the men who fight today,
The song of the Crusader has long since gone away.................................................................
In what version of the history did Richard take Jerusalem from Salahuddin? lol
+Ashar Pervez He never.
He signed a treaty with An-Nasir Salah ad-Din Yusuf ibn Ayyub in 2 September 1192 allowing control to remain in Muslim hands but allowed the free passage of Christian pilgrims and traders.
Saladin burns in Hell but Richard the Lionhearted lives in Heaven! The followers of the false prophet have had their last Victory he may win a few more wars but his time is short and his wickedness will come to an end by God`s own hand.
@Graxxor Anandro Vidhelssen Of course, heaven and hell both exist. You'll be in either of these after resurrection of yourself after your death.

We should have held the holy land, that's were Jesus died for us but when money came into it that was the end.
In Saladin's defense, no historic source claimed he was a drunk, and even his foes pointed out his magnanimity as a knight in many occasions. Respect to the real artist (chris de burgh).
great song although Saladin was not as he's depicted in the lyrics. he was pious, generous and merciful as well to the Crusader enemy.
This song was banned in my country for years, thanks LORD now i can listen to it freely.

So what do you think of it? Do you agree with whoever banned it? Do you see value in the song?

That was one of the causes, yes. That, and because they invaded the Byzantine Empire, which was Christian, and the Pope was asked to help defend Christian interests.

When the enemy shall come in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him. Isa 59:19 Stand up and fight people, it's now or never
Fight especially against false prophets, ravening wolves in sheep’s clothing, telling you what you want to hear while stripping you of your humanity on behalf of Satan.
They lost the battle but the war is still going with other banners
Ok, I resent the end of the song. There is only greed and evil in the men who fight today. I know a UN Peacekeeper. The man does not have a greedy bone in his body. He fights, or rather fought, to try to protect and help people. It is not the men who fight that are filled with greed and evil. It is the men who lead the men who fight. Rwanda, Bosnia, Sierra Leone, Yugoslavia, Serbia, Cambodia, Somalia, he fought in all of them. But the men who lead them forbid interference unless they are directly attacked. So the men who fight watch on as the men who lead order them to stand down and let the innocent get massacred.
Did you miss the part where is said "the fool said"... Do you believe the words of a fool?
I think he meant that Wisemen think things logically in an illogical world.
@@joshuaplotkin8826 I do believe the reference is more towards those who orchestrate the fighting and not the fighters themselves. Perhaps a soldier dedicates his life selflessly to the service of other in a war, but that war likely sparked from a controversy over territory or money. When it is said that "there is only greed and evil in the men who fight today" it means more the politicians and supposedly great leaders than the foot soldiers.
Since when is saying that christians weren't exactly sweet and innocent, that they were barbaric too making excuses for anyone. Perhaps you do need to learn to read. No one is waxing lyrical. Fact is Saracens were no better or worse than anyone else living in those days. Go ahead twist this too.
after so many years i can not stop loving his songs yet.Have grown up with his songs.love
Dears ,lets be honest to history , because no one can change what happened , and the truth is that the crusaders didn't return to Jerusalem during the time of Salahdeen even though they tried many times and Jerusalem stayed with the Arab Muslims( who are not heathens as Chris mentioned )for centuries after the death of Salahdeen and not what had been sang in the song . Sorry but , there are historical facts you have to know .
This song was a mish mash of the first and 2nd, maybe 3rd crusade.
King Richard did defeat Saladin in battle, and the last battle was pretty epic on king Richards part (not so much for Saladin).
But as you stated Jerusalem did not get liberated by king Richard during his time in the crusades. King Richard was able to gain more territory and made a deal with Saladin to give Jerusalem access Christian pilgirms without them being attacked on their way to the holy land.
Ironically both king Richard and Saladin were killed by people in their own land and not by foreigners of a different religion.
Makes you wonder, what kind of reaction this song would receive if it was released today!!!!!!
Not enough diversity would be the main complaint.
Far too long for today's Spotify listerners and producers.
