Good on You for let the credit finish, so one more 👍 from Me😎.
Told you you'ld love it!
Yes! Thank you!
No Bullets Fly (animated story video) from Sabaton is a must watch. Bismarck is another awesome song, The Attack of the Dead Men, The Red Baron, To Hell and Back, and 82nd All The Way are some of my favs
I certainly agree on Bismarck (the song that introduced me to the band) and Attack of the Dead Men. I'd add Winged Hussars and Primo Victoria.
Don’t forget ”En livstid i krig” live from Gothenburg (with subtitles if you’re not swedish).😢
I want add The Ballad of Bull and Father to this list. ^^
Fantastic reaction, The 1st guy outta the trench is Hannes Van Dahl there drummer & husband of Nightwish singer Floor Jansen who also sang the outtro over the credits. A BIG yes to the Bismark its an amazing video also
I have not reacted to Sabaton and I should have. Wise words. You get a like. Also, my translator in Iraq was a sniper on Saddam's army. Doesn't matter. We're all fellow humans. We unite.
No bullets fly animated story
Nightwitches full animated story
Screaming Eagles
Bismark
These are good stories to start with.
Welcome to Sabaton. Bismarck would be a really good one and then also No bullets fly the animated story video. Also excellent reaction. ❤️&✌️ From South Africa 🇿🇦
Oh, what to choose....?
A couple of must see is 'En livstid i krig' live from the Great Tour in Gothenburg, its in Swedish but use the subs, 'No bullets fly' the animated story, I think someone suggested that already, and finally 'Ghostdivision' live from the polish Woodstock back in 2012. Amazing performance!
And this is just for starters...
I also recommend their official Sabaton History Channel, if you want to learn more about the event in the song.
Really good reaction!
The animated version of "No Bullets Fly" is pretty much the go-to first Sabaton recommendation -- sort of like "Ghost Love Score" is for Nightwish. BTW, in case you haven't heard it a hundred times by now, Hannes Van Dahl -- the one that went over the wall first in this video -- is Floor Jansen's husband.
Their animated STORY versions are always a good choice.
Night Witches is phenomenal.
AVIATION, DEVIATION, UNDETECTED STEALTH PERFECTED
I concur
I cry every time when I hear this song.😢 I think that you should check all of theirs animated videos, they are awesome and you get a little bit of history. 😉 Keep rocking 🤘🎸
History + Metal = Sabaton!
There are just so many great songs so you cant go wrong, but I recommend these: Bismark, en livstid i krig (live in Gothenburg), ghost division, no bullets fly (animated story).
BTW: if you liked the music in Pasadena 1994 you might like "The Last Stand" by Sabaton. :D
This song genuinely made me tear up the first time I heard it
It’s a powerful song
I'm happy that he finally fell into this rabbit hole; he's going to enjoy it so much! Knowing his love for military airplanes, I would recommend "No bullets fly" and then "Night Witches". Great reaction as always!
IIn all the reactions I have seen, you are the first to acknowledge the role of the first men who took the first step in asking the other side for a truce. They were the real heroes. At that time there were many men who were simply shot. We should honor their sacrifices.
💯
Sabaton has a loooong list of history based music.
A bit of advice, Sabaton videos are often have dedications (in memory of...) and/or messages (war know knows no...) at the end, so watching to very end is recommended.
Actually, Sabaton have won awards for being educators of the public (not much money, but prestige), they have a history channel on UA-cam where they talk about the history behind the songs (over 100 at present) and why/how they made the song/video.
Animated STORY videos. short history lessons with music videos in them, followed by concuding history), you will likely have enough explained in these to get you interested to find out more.
No bullets fly
Night witches
Lady of the dark
Red baron
epic ones (official not the lyric videos)
Bismark, about the sinking of the ship
Defence of Moscow, self explained
Christmas truce, about the spontaneous truce in some parts of the western front during Christmas 1914
40:1, about polish soldiers, badly outnumbered (just under 750 in all) facing 42 000 germans, they where BADLY outgunned desperately defending against the German invasion 1939.
Uprising, the Warsaw Uprising during 1944.
To hell and back, they tell the story of Audie Murphy (highly decorated) and his struggle AFTER the war, so about PTSD and drug addiction that returning soldiers can face.
Fields of verdun, the 300+ day long battle fought there.
Price of a mile, about the battle of Passchendaele in WW1
Screaming Eagles, about the battle of the bulge
Royal guards and Livgardet in that order, they are partially intertwined and tell a story (Sabaton do that), both about the history behind Swedish Royal guards, written to celebrate the 500 year anniversary of Livgardet (Royal guards in Swedish).
Unkillable soldier, Abou Sir Adrian Carton de Wiart. the acting deliberately simulates "plot armour" and acting⁷ in videogames/movies where hero never has bad outcomes to injury. he actually went through MORE in reality, survived plane crashes, escaped POW camp… served Boer war, WW1, WW2 and few minor in-between.
Live performances.
40:1 from Poland
Uprising, live from Poland.
.
En livstid I krig live from Göteborg Sweden (in Swedish but there are subtitles) ,very heavy again, about thoughts of a young man going to war.
Swedish pagans, live from Wacken 2019 (with Tina Guo).
these are just some, there are plenty more.
The soldiers on both sides were replaced as they would not kill the other. They either didn't shoot or shot up in the air. The Christmas truce didn't just happen there, it happen in other places. This was forbidden on both sides after this.
Someone probably already mentioned but for the most part the men all refused to fight after that they had to be transferred to other places and command fearing it would happen again would bombard heavily and then transfer people before holidays. it really was a rich mans war
Damn
If you continuing with Sabaton and do both history channel, music videos, animated videos and live performances you will find that not only do they make history current and alive. BUT they are also a totally amazing bad live. Great in energy really appreciative of their fans and big on audience interaction .. as Joachim said in an interview .. that’s what is unique and interesting for them .. the songs they know .. the people are unique .. my suggestion, at that point, is to watch the Sabaton vlogs just in private (for example from the tour in the US 2022) .. they are such nice dudes . AND hilarious 🤣 I promise you will have a big smile on your face the entire time .. these are the guys I would like to hang with 🔥
I'm glad you responded to Sabaton. You can choose any if their songs next time because they are all hits!
Can't wait to see you react to more of them. All their videos are amazing!
If you want an awesome live song with Sabaton I can heavily recommend en livstid i krig (a lifetime of war) live Scandinavium Gothenburg.
It is the Swedish version of the song (the Carolus Rex album that had come out during that time is about a part of Swedish history called the era of great power or stormaktstiden)
It was released in both English and Swedish versions, the English gives you more of an outsider's view of the war while the Swedish is from a Swedish soldier's view.
I was at that show and all I can say is that you won't regret it.
Yes, and that show and song have inspired a lot of non-Swedish fans to start to study Swedish, at least enough to be able to sing along in Swedish:)
Great reaction. Almost all Sabaton music videos are epic and their live shows are incredible with massive crowd interaction and intense production. You cannot really go wrong with either, but I highly recommend the videos from the 2012 Polish Woodstock festival where Sabaton performed in front of a crowd in excess of 550,000. Keep rocking.
Ending credits Floor Jansen , hmmm should she have made some songs of her own , she sounds pretty good 😜
😂
have a look at Nightwish and you will see some songs of her, she is amazing
I wonder if there's a band out there that might want her.
@@g.m.6511 haha , I know, I discovered Nightwish about 3 years ago through reaction channels and in meantime I was lucky to see NW 2 times (Amsterdam and Hamburg) see Floor in Hertme and on the 17 April and in July I will see her again, so I guess I’m a little bit familiar with her , and I’m unbelievable happy I discovered this all because I didn’t know NW , Epica Ayreon and some more bands while I’m Dutch myself, thanks to YT I found lots of good music I never heard about, so it was not serious when I write about the ending credits 😜
You should totally watch more Sabaton! Last Stand, Primo Victoria or Attero Dominatus are really good, Metal Crue or Metal Machine are really funny, and good. :D
I concur, can't go wrong with any of their songs really.
*tosses a defiant Swedish Pagans at Wacken 2019 in the room*
@@christineschmidt8501 "Swedish Pagans, marching ashore, forged in Valhalla, by the hammer of Thor!" :D
What an AMAZING
🌟CHRISTMAS🌟
Song by SABATON.
The lyrics and the MUSIC

Unbelievable.
All Band Members play a Role.
Also the HUSBAND from
FLOOR JANSEN,
The DRUMMER van SABATON,
HANNES VAN DAHL.
He was the wounded SOLDIER.
It's also a piece of history.
You can learn a lot.
It's very...... EMOTIONAL 😢

FLOOR JANSEN,
makes it extra Beautiful...💫

FORGOTTEN!!!!
Thank you this was
AMAZING.
Love and Peace 🕊
Love from the Netherlands
️ 🇳🇱 🙋🏼♀️
The most things they do are great, but I really recommend you to take on "Ghost division", the official live video from Woodstock. Another great is the "En livstid i krig." That one is in Swedish, so don't forget the subtitles. But it's awesome!
If you wanna go deep, see the video for "Inmate 4859". That history is not very well known, so look at Sabaton history channel on UA-cam for background. Really an amazing story!
Good reaction for this one!
Phenomenal reaction man - just watched you for the first time (searching "Sabaton reactions" 😅) and you speak extremely eloquently and convey thoughts and emotions brilliantly, which is a breath of fresh air.
Seeing a metal enthusiast discover Sabaton with no foreknowledge is so rare, and it was awesome to see you hear the beautiful gut-punch that is Christmas Truce as your first intro to the band.
Their two most recent albums (which this song is from) are about World War 1 and absolutely rock.
Most people in the comments will probably recommend Bismarck next, which is a great song and music video and a standard for first-time reactors, though my personal favorite and best recommendation would be Seven Pillars of Wisdom, which is about Lawrence of Arabia and was the song that made me fall in love with Sabaton in the first place (and it bangs hard as fuck 🤘😆🤘).
Lookin' forward to more reactions man! Gonna have to go through your catalogue now and catch up. 😄
I showed this sabaton song at Christmas to my aunt and gramps. Normally not their cup of tea, but you could feel the room go still. They were amazed, think they got why sabaton is my fav band of all time. Heck I’ve even meet them! Have had them sign my tattoo which I got done permanently when back home. An amazing band and always an epic song
I saw them live last October this was one of my favorites that they played that night it was incredible live they bought a piano on stage and everything
You notice the section with the guitar is greenscreened in? There is a reason for it... that instrument, if you paused to look at it, has no mic hookup because it was made over a century ago. It was not actually in playable condition, the wood has long since dried out and is very fragile, but the owner was not about to let the instrument be on the primary recording lot. Even ignoring all the acting, just the humidity of the snow could damage it. The rest was recorded, including the background audio track, then he was permitted to play it for this small section in a safe place inside a recording studio. A pre-1920 piano can be found, and even if they really blew it up (they didn't, because they respect history better than that) it would not be that great a loss. A guitar from the same era is nowhere near as easy, and is insured for a value that would buy a small home.
This reminds me of the scene in The Hateful 8 where Kurt russels character smashes a guitar that was the actual million dollar guitar by accident. Lol the reaction from the actress that knew it was the real one was priceless. Thanks for that but of info!
The female singer in the end is Floor Jansen, singer in Nightwish. And she's married to the drummer in Sabaton.
Sabaton is a Swedish band that writes and sings about Actual historic events, battles, moments of heroism and wars, but hey don't glorify war whatsoever.
They released their 10th studio album earlier this year.
Nice thing about them is that their video's never blocked so it's UA-cam safe. (except for some Wacken video's that gets blocked by Wacken)
If you really want to go down the Sabaton rabbit-hole, I would recommend these:
(These are all from the Sabaton Channel, and they never block videos so it's safe to use)
[live at Woodstock 2012]: Ghost Division, 40:1 and Uprising
[Great Tour Live Videos]: En Livstied I Krig (make sure to turn subtitles on), Red Baron, Swedish Pagans, Primo Victoria, Fields of Verdun, Devil Dogs & Angels Calling
[Lyric videos]: Attack of the dead men, The Final Solution, In Flanders Fields, 82nd All the way, Sparta, Shiroyama, Cliffs Of Gallipolli and The lost betallion
[Music Video's]: Bismarck, Steel Commanders, Defence of Moscow, Livgardet (make sure to turn subtitles on), Fields of Verdun, Rourke's Drift, Screaming Eagles, Uprising, The Future Of Warfare (Building Blocks Video) & Seven Pillars of wisdom
[Animated History Video's]: Night Witches and No Bullets Fly (not animated music video's, the animated history/story video's)
[Covers]: Kingdom Come [Offical video]
and I'm sure people told you but in case, Sabaton have another channel (Sabaton History Channel) where they do a deep dive into the history behind the songs with Indy Nidell.
if you're just starting with sabaton, i'd recommend reacting to the "Sabaton History" aswell, as a lead in, but hey, everyone does it diffrent
The only people who could understand what the soldiers were going through were those on the other side of the trenches. WW1 is absolutely insane - great reaction.
End Credits - that's Floor Jansen signing from Nightwish (and Hannes' wife), she's one of the best female vocalists in the world!
Nice reaction, and I subscribed because you wisely let the credits roll on. As other posters note, always let the credits go through:) For suggestions, Soldier of Heaven, Harlem Hellfighters, and the song they usually end with, "To Hell and Back" about Audie Murphy. Their stage tank is named Audie. And a favorite concert of mine is the Hellfest 2019 concert, where Sabaton filled in for Manowar. Joakim lost his voice, so the two guitarists, Tommy Johansson and Chris Rörland took turns singing the songs with Joakim providing them with the lyric sheets. This concert is over an hour, so not sure you want to do a reaction to it, but it is incredible to watch, that despite everything, they still performed a great show for the large crowd expecting Manowar.
Welcome to the world of Sabaton! There are so much to listen to. Bismarck is a great choice. It's another musikvideo with cinematic qualities. It's not on an album. They created this for all the fans that wanted Sabaton to make this song.
This video always brings tears to my eyes. It just goes to show that war is about the powers that be. Not the ppl. But they send them out there to die.
This song is a bit different than the rest of what I've heard of them. But this one is so beautiful.
And I did get the shirt yes. Still waiting on the hoodie though lol
Update: Got the Hoodie now. It's fantastic!! 🤘🤘
About frickin time!
Listen to the songs Bismarck, No bullets fly and The Last Stand (Live) after this. There's really good too.
Read about them before so get the history behind Bismarck and The Last stand, in the animated No bullets fly you get it all in the video (to the last seconds).
If I can recommend, check Attack of the dead men, Bismarck and Far from the fame. The last one doesn't have an official clip but video from Masters of Rock 2012 is fun, including some fan interactin since the singer is half Czech(I am Czech too). They are great songs as basically all of them.
1914 trench warfare ... true story ... and Floor Jansen dinging the outro . Perfect Video /song . Greetings from nwAse Sweden
First off one important thing: Whichever music video of Sabaton you watch, make sure you stick around to the very end. Sabaton likes to hide some little easter-eggs in there on occasion. Christmas Truce is no exception in this regard. Remember the opera vocals during the credits? That is none other than Floor Jansen of Nightwish - who just so happens to be the wife of Sabaton's drummer.
With that said, let me give you a few recommendations..
Bismarck (Official Music Video)
The Unkillable Soldier (Official Music Video)
No Bullets Fly (Animated Story Video)
Night witches (Animated Story Video)
The Lady of the Dark (Animated Story Video)
40:1 (live in Poland 2010)
The Red Baron (Live, The Great Tour - Berlin)
Swedish Pagans (Live, The Great Tour - Gothenburg)
If you are interested in reacting to more Sabaron, I would personally recommend their cover of the song 1916, which was originally composed by Motorhead, it is a powerful tribute to those that have died in all the wars (especially the Battle of the Somme) as well as Lemmy (the lead of Motorhead).
Comes out tomorrow morning!
🤗🍒🤘🏻And who did the credits? (Yes Floor Jansen van Nightwish, wife of Hannes the drummer of Sabaton)
All true and the cross is still there in a field in Ypres France great video
Bismarck is a good choice so go for that one 👍
The last part was Floor Jansen
Still that backround noise arrgh. Glad you did this...beautiful song. Only what 8 months to xmas lol
Yeah I record in batches. It will be handled.
@@ThunderRooster Glad to hear and great pick for something to react. Funny was kickball...basically in those conditions it was more kickball than football. But yea football is played with feet you know ;)
Remember is everybody thought this war would be over by Christmas. To hear they're still sitting in the trenches fighting the weather fighting the rats and the fleas much less going back to the trenches and trying to kill the poor bastards again.
This really happened in history
Monster Magnet "The Duke" is a must watch.
To be the first one to step in no man's land with 100 rifles pointing at you, that requires some big time major balls of steel; and nobody shot., it's so inspiring. One of the most famous is that of British commander Francis Wallington, who told of a sergeant under his command who crossed German lines to meet a German soldier in the middle of the battlefield. The name of the British sergeant who crossed the lines during the Christmas truce was Frank Naden. In his book "Silent Night: The Story of the World War I Christmas Truce," historian Stanley Weintraub describes how Naden approached the German lines with a small white flag and was greeted by German soldiers who came out to meet him. After exchanging gifts and chatting, Naden returned to his trench and told the story to his comrades-in-arms.
WOW. Thank you for the info!
@@ThunderRooster 🙂👍
Thanks for mentioning the book, also mentioned in another music video post section. I bought the book, but still don't have the heart to read it: I know it's tragic. That war should never have started, or once started, should have ended with the 1914 Christmas Truce, and then followed Charles Dickens' advice through the character Scrooge, to honor Christmas every day of the year, peace on Earth. People might say this is dreaming, but we aren't the only ones.
@@merryrose6788 🙂👍 I haven't read it too, but I will, eventually.
I couldn't agree more.
No Bullets Fly (animated), En Livstid I Krig (live in gothenburg), To Hell and Back, Bismarck…. im subscribing in hopes you do them all lol.
I will do a lot from them. They are inspiring.
That's an awesome 6-string bass
I do love my bass.
I suggest checking out no bullets fly animated story
You should listen to the Metal Crue song from Sabaton. Even if you don't make a video about it. According to the singer Joachim, he wrote the song on the toilet within 20 min. because they needed anouther song on their album. It's a metal encyclopedia because he used a metal magazine to write it. It is a part of a triology (metal crue (band names). metal machine (metal album names), metal ripper (metal song lyrics)) there is a mashup of the three song made by Sabaton make sure you listen to the 3 songs in their original form.
All these people suggesting songs and not mentioning classics like Primo Victoria, Uprising, Final Solution, White Death etc come on guys!!
Which one next? 1916 (Sabaton cover from Motorhead original) Just do it, you can thank me later. Then after that you need Bismarck.
I did both! 1916 is on here and bismark is on patreon.
Bismarck...or Ghost Division (Live) from 2012
Bismarck is the great one for me, plaese check it out, It is a must have !!
It was amazing! I reacted to it but had audio issues. It’s on patreon , I salvaged the camera audio but it was not good enough to put on the channel.
I enjoyed your reaction so here you have a new subscriber🙃 but I wonder if you could turn down the background music a notch when you're talking. It's good music but I had tough time hearing what you said. I might be the only one then just ignore me but if there's more than me it's something to think about.
🤓🇸🇪
Thanks for subbing! Yeah the background music is new for me, so I need to find a proper way to do it. Thanks!
Bismarck is great choice, you should watch iT👌
🤩👍💥💯🎼
🤘😎 🇫🇮 💙
kick-ball????`? ITS FOTBALL!!!!
