When they all sing "In the name of God" near the end... genuine, literal chills. Everyone I've played it for feels it too. The whole song is great in general, but that one part, and its placement in the song overall, really helps make this one of my favorite Sabaton songs in general.
The sacking of Rome happened in the 6 of May 1527. May 6th is the day of the year when the new recruits of the Swiss Guard are sworn in as members of the Guard. In the end, the defeat became a victory against time. They are still remembered...
@@fredriknilsson6042I was at the last show in the tour in October, and it was my first concert ever. I’m going to the Powerwolf concert on February 23rd, and I’m so excited. Rock on Sabaton and Powerwolf 🤘
This song is absolutely amazing, whether this original version, or the covers by Dan Vasc and Jonathan Young. I'm so glad I found Dan's channel it introduced me to so many great musicians, reactors, and new friends, some of whom are also CZcams creators. Another great reaction!
The bravery and courage, seeing your death coming, but you fight anyway. It is heart breaking, sad, and great. I'm profoundly jealous that I'm not as good a man as they were. I don't know how I could ever be.
I actually remember more historical dates when there is a Sabaton song about them because I just replay the songs in my head. I could never remember the date for D-Day until Primo Victoria. I don't think there is a Sabaton song that I could even say is objectively poor, let alone bad. I like all the songs they have done and their consistency is exceptional.
When you told of the Swiss guard requirements, I couldn't help thinking: "Well, they can't be an elite unit. They have to take anyone who fits the description." I'm not so sure it's so easy to find devout catholics in Switzerland... But then I thought about southern Switzerland which is pretty much Italian so maybe there are a bunch anyway. And now I had to look it up. 38% catholics in Switzerland. According to the books. Pretty certain a lot of those are more or less atheists in reality. So. Basically. I really have no idea what I'm talking about here. :)
back in early 2000 i was on a joint securtiy team in D.C. so got to see how many different protaction details worked from Russia , Saudi, Jordan ect.. compared too the DSS of the State Dept. and the UDSS (uniformed division of Secret Service) they all did things different for VIP protection.
Amazing song!! ❤❤❤❤❤❤ SHORT FACTS: The outnumbered Swiss Guards, protectors of the Vatican, stood against an invading horde during the sack of Rome in 1527, Giving their lives so the Pope could escape... The song is based on the perspective of those people. & how driven & Loyal they were to their faith in order to sacrifice their lives... -It's very Deep❤ But the band itself is not a Christian band.
"To Hell and back" = the family was grateful for not doing another annoying country song. "No Bullets Fly" = the family was grateful for keeping up theirs grandfathers legacy. "The Last Stand" = As long as there are 189 antibodies in your daugthers blood: SHE (Whom Is Your Daugther) Shall Not Fear Harm! Sorry: As a German, my Shakesperean poetry is more than 'a little bit rusty', me was taught "Faust" ... but U know WIM 😘!
This is one of my favorites of theirs.(Sorry, Bismarck isn't coming off the top of the list for anyone or anything...) Sabaton is so good at setting a 'feel' for a song, and they got the 'holy' vibe all OVER this thing. And it works. I'm not particularly religious, but, again, it's perfect for THIS story. Saw Sabaton in St. Louis last September, and it was a great show. They sounded like this in person.
That's the beauty of Sabaton they're the masters of consistency and simplicity they have the same look, style and formula and yet for every album they put out they sound better and better not many bands have that level of consistency.
@@irvinscottprovinglifeandlo4830 Well. No. They are not a christian band. They sing about history and this particular piece of history is at the heart of christianity. And they have changed. If you listen to early Sabaton, it's very very different. Now, they have found their style. And it works for them. :)
I'm not Christian but I still like this song, I can totally respect them for defending what they believe in until the end.
I'm glad your daughter is doing better. I'm going to see Sabaton and several other great bands in august at their own festival, Sabaton Open Air.
Thx this song means a lot to me 🇨🇭 glad to hear your daughter get better 🙏

The way Sabaton just played with the syllables is the definition of advanced writing and singing.
It was totally sold out unfortenally. 😭 This is one of my favourite Sabaton songs, and The lost battalion is also a really good one
Sorry to here that. I was at the concert in Norrköping, it was great

The resident church organ player mr. Brodén wrote the music with Chris.
They decided to go all out with the churchy sounds and epicness :)
This song gives me the chills, Such a good song. Love the "epicness" of so many Sabaton songs!
Glad your daughter is doing better, I'm also glad Frozen Crown brought me here.
One of my favorite Sabaton songs 🇸🇪😀 I am so happy to hear your daughter are doing great. 😀
im so glad i've been listening to this band for 10+ years love these guys so much
I appreciate the reaction. I'm hoping to see Sabaton in Atlanta on October 4th.
" It was 1527, Gave their life's on steps to heaven"
1527, Sacking of Rome and Swiss guard's defence of the pope
Amazing song
IN THE NAME OF GOD!!!!
I'm with you, man... October 22nd in Montreal !😁
I cannot wait to see sabaton on Oct 10 in Cincinnati
Thank you for that reaction OSN :)

Sabaton will also be returning to Australia.. can't wait!!

This is such a fun song live. Saw Them on May 2nd, it was such a Good show! The only thing I missed on the setlist was Lady of the Dark
Also. Hope everything works out with the medical bills and everything! Wishing all the best for you and your family
Isn't this just the most Sabaton song you've ever heard?
Not sure I understand your question
When you told of the Swiss guard requirements, I couldn't help thinking: "Well, they can't be an elite unit. They have to take anyone who fits the description."

COUNTERSTRIKE is awesome.
Why?! Why the hell did you have to mention that unicorn thing? I've never noticed it before now I can't unsee it.😅😂
Amazing song!!
❤❤❤❤❤❤
SHORT FACTS:
The outnumbered Swiss Guards, protectors of the Vatican, stood against an invading horde during the sack of Rome in 1527, Giving their lives so the Pope could escape...
The song is based on the perspective of those people.
& how driven & Loyal they were to their faith in order to sacrifice their lives...
-It's very Deep❤
But the band itself is not a Christian band.
🤞 for your daughter
Odd, Par has his swedish song bass, but the other guys have their regular urban camo instruments
"To Hell and back" = the family was grateful for not doing another annoying country song.
"No Bullets Fly" = the family was grateful for keeping up theirs grandfathers legacy.
"The Last Stand" = As long as there are 189 antibodies in your daugthers blood:
SHE (Whom Is Your Daugther) Shall Not Fear Harm!

Something I've been noticing, don't get me wrong sabaton is a good band but, every song I've heard it sounds almost the exact same just sayin
That's the beauty of Sabaton they're the masters of consistency and simplicity they have the same look, style and formula and yet for every album they put out they sound better and better not many bands have that level of consistency.
@@chrisumana7644 not sure I see that but wish them well
Well, I am just realizing they are a christian band, christian bands don't ever change their style, still a good band
@@irvinscottprovinglifeandlo4830 Well. No. They are not a christian band. They sing about history and this particular piece of history is at the heart of christianity.
And they have changed. If you listen to early Sabaton, it's very very different. Now, they have found their style. And it works for them. :)
@@jonashansson2320 I'd be surprised to find out they are not a christian band, but I also don't know this as fact
🤘🤘🤘
