- Another great historical moment captured by a Sabaton song, outlining the invasion of Poland by the German military in World War 2, and the heavily outnumbered Polish holding their ground.

Swedish band Sabaton singing in Poland about German invasion of Poland .. making the poles proud… same Sabaton sings in another country about their history.. making them equally proud of their nation! Impressive !
love the polish people
As an Swede and European all shit have get us closer to each other
But the people from Poland is so great people LOVE THEM
🇸🇪❤️👍
Polak here…I’ve studied the ‘39 campaign a bit (great book= The Eagle Unbowed) The plan was for Poland to hold for two weeks, then France attacks Germany’s lightly defended west border, followed by Britain. France and Britain wussed out. Poland held for four weeks even after the Soviets invaded on the 17th. Your analysis was spot on.
There was definitely frustration within official polish leadership about the lip service given to them by western “allies” about the potential help that was coming. The reality was the western allies were in no position to offer really anything substantial, they weren’t ready for war. They were, at least in my opinion, hoping their words of potential involvement in Poland would be received more as a threat to Germany than a promise to Poland.
@@rayceofhistory It's nice to discuss this with someone who has at least looked into the Polish vantage point. I agree France and Britain weren't ready, but I think if France had attacked the Rhineland area, even if a full invasion wasn't possible, it really would have smacked Hitler in the face and given him a great deal to reconsider. Just that little bit may have stopped him in his tracks for a while. Would it have stopped the Soviets on the 17th? I don't know.
@@detroitpolak9904 you may be right in regards to France retaliating. Hitler, by his own admission, was waiting for intervention by the west early on. Every move was like a chess move, intended not necessarily to win, but to gauge the opponent. When no move was made, step by step Hitler came to believe there would be no real consequences. That the allies would do anything to avoid another world war. And he was right to a degree, they were doing anything they could to prevent another conflict. I’m curious how things would have gone had France attacked. Because they were not in a position to fight Germany, not on any large scale. Their leadership had handicapped the soldiers too much, and in my opinion, had rested too much on their laurels from winning WW1. So I wonder what happens if France attacks. Does Hitler believe in his military enough to let them loose, to turn his ire towards the west early, or would he have just maneuvered to block France and then after Poland was taken decide it was time to strike. I’m not sure of the answer, especially with the agreement with the USSR. But no doubt it would have taken pressure off of Polish resistance, there would have had to be at least an initial response to French intervention.
That concert was just crazy. There was somewhere north of half a million people in that crowd.
It looked WILD.
Please, watch Sabaton History episode for this song ;) This is a very little known story, even in Poland. Sabaton did a great job to remind us of this battle.
It should be out tomorrow!
I would like to mention that after that song the crowd started singing their national anthem to the band.
True❤🇵🇱🔥
Wow! Thank you for reacting to this great Sabaton song!, which resonated a lot here in Poland. I love the whole concert of Woodstock, 2012! - Sabaton was amazing and energetic and the audience was brilliant! My very first song I watched of Sabaton on the internet a year ago was Uprising (I recommend it live 2012 Woodstock) and official video is very good too.
The Battle of Wizna was one of the first defensive battles, which they didn't taught me about. They just say about the beginning of ww2 like September campaigne in general. We've just had 21 years of hard times of our fresh independance and we had a lot of great officers, who, you know, after 17th Sep when Soviet Union entered , were captured and then shot into the back of their heads. There were over 20 thousand Polish officers and intelligentsia. God, Honor, Homeland - these are values that have been in the hearts of Poles for centuries. Today...? I hope too.
There is a sabaton song from the carolus rex album called ruina imperii however it is only sung in Swedish and describes the collapse of the swedish great pwer era. You should really check it out for a video!
It’s on my list to get too, so it shouldn’t be too long.
9:58 it's easy. Poland was none existing for 123 years, we get back on the map in 1918 and we didn't want to gave up our independence for which we fought. There is pretty good video which shows our history from 1939 its called "IPNtv: The Unconquered" - czcams.com/video/Q88AkN1hNYM/video.html

Seen sabaton once live. They rock and it was a amazing show. But to be at a show in poland hearing 40 to 1 and uprissing. I cant think of any show be more crazy and full of tears and emotion then in poland.
If I forget them, you, God in heaven, forget me!🇵🇱
Honor and Glory to the Heroes!
breathtaking! every Gig in Poland ends up in a big positive mess! I love it, and i have to go there. the Borders less than 200km away!
After they played this song the audience started singing their national anthem.
Though that becomes a bit awkward because one part of it is about how they forced us swedes out of thier country, and Sabaton is swedish. It would be like if the US national anthem sang "We defeated the bloody British and drow them from our land!".
Fun fact: It's the only national anthem that recalls Sweden by name, our own anthem only talks about The North/Norden.
The exact lyrics in English:
Like Czarniecki to Poznań
After the Swedish annexation,
To save our homeland,
We shall return across the sea.
Most Brits and Americans probably wouldn’t know this, but the US national anthem actually is in direct reference to the British attempt to destroy fort McHenry right after they had burned the White House and Congressional buildings to the ground in the war of 1812. So the whole thing is actually a reference to the US standing up to Britain, from basically start to finish of the song, although it wouldn’t be awkward if it was sung with a British band playing because nobody would actually understand the reference.
IPN Unconquered!!!!!!!!!!!! Try that my friend
We do not !! beg for freedom !! WE FIGHT for IT !! Kurwa
jeszcze jedno piwo :)
❤Poland🇵🇱
It has turned out through research that it wasn’t really 40:1, those figures were propaganda, but it’s still a very fascinating story. It’s sort of forgotten or neglected that the Soviet Union invaded Poland simultaneously from the east as Germany and the Soviet Union had agreed to split Poland in two through the Molotov-Ribbentrop pact.
Who have you read that has numbers for it? I’ve not come across any that have much backing by sources on either side of the debate.
Bardziej panowie to chodzi o to że nie ważne ile razy nas czyli Polskę najada i tak POLAK nie łamie danego słowa kto jest przyjaciel to jest przyjaciel a kto jest wróg niech się strzeże pozdrawiam przyjaciół mojego kochanego Kraju zza granicy
@@rayceofhistory According to Polish historian Dr. Tomasz Wesołowski from the university of Białystok, what stoped the Germans from advancing was mainly the Narew river and not polish resistance, since they had to build a pontoon bridge. Many of the polish soldiers were already about to flee the battlefield. A cording to Bialyostok, German losses were only 9 soldiers and the myth about the polish defence was created during the 50’s and 60’s by communist propaganda - at first in Sztandar Młodych and later in following publications that had little to do with reality. Wesołowskis research has caused controversy among many history lovers and nationalists but is accepted among most polish history scholars. There were many myths and historically incorrect “facts” that were created through the communist propaganda machine and many of them are hard to change even today, since this is what people were taught in school. Especially today when polish nationalism is growing.
If u liked this live performance i can recommend a few others, their songs Uprising and Ghost divison, are two great ones and one off my personal favorits is Swedish pagans with tina gau 👍
Hi... why you have English ensigns or flag on your background...
It’s just one of the historical things I collect. I actually have five back there, that one is just the only one visible in that video. But I have that one, the prussian flag, the Serapis flag, the join or die continental flag, and a Roman standard. I particularly like ones that either weren’t a real flag, like Serapis, weren’t around long, something that makes it very specific to a time in history.
I thought this was a song about a compressor...
You really don't know what you talking about.... stick to what you have
2012 Sabaton is in Poland at the "Przystanek (bus top or station) Woodstock" concert, in Poland, not the USA. Sabaton collected approximately 500,000 at that time. Pol'and'Rock Festival (in 1995-2017 Przystanek Woodstock). pl.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pol%E2%80%99and%E2%80%99Rock_Festival
