That cross is based on one that is actually located at one of the battlefields in Belgium, and the inscription is nearly identical. The Christmas Truce of 1914 is one of the most remarkable moments in human history, and Sabaton did an incredible job paying tribute to it.
The Khaki Chums cross placed in 1999

Isn’t that the original cross in the video?
Ya to bad my country just killed everyone on Christmas. Look it up its rarely remembered because canada has really cleaned up its image until Justin.
you are correct about the cross....it is here in belgium where i live...it is in Ypres to be pecise.....the words on the cross are there.....Sabaton is the greatest war history teacher in the world....
At 14:25 Floor is given credit for the ending vocals.
In 2014, Sabaton began work on this song. They are obsessed with being factual. It took them 7 years to complete it. They wanted to "get it right". They tell stories. They don't pick sides or slant the view either way. Politicians start wars. Soldiers fight those wars. "We were all friends." This is not just a Christmas song. It is a year round message. The wailing and screaming guitar gives me chills and tears. Floor singing the outro is as much a part of the song as the beginning battle. She soothes the soul, gives closure to a heartfelt song. If not for that, it would have felt incomplete.
Best comment.
One of the main reasons it took 7 years is because it just didn't fit into any of their albums or themes at the time. They have several songs that got delayed for years because of that.
Their songs are written about real people and events from military history.
More to try from them: Bismarck (sinking of the German Battleship in WWII), Soldier of Heaven (White Friday avalanches on the Italian front in WWI), or the animated video for Night Witches (Russian WWII 588th all female night bomber regiment)
I'm sure someone probably told you when they recommended this band, but if they didn't, the drummer (Hannes Van Dahl) is married to Nightwish frontwoman Floor Jansen.

@hris O - Those are all excellent choices to introduce Sabaton to someone new to the band. 👏
Just one is missing in my opinion: No Bullets Fly (animated Yarnhub video). 🤘
It’s a beautiful song and Floor’s vocalise during the credits is absolutely gorgeous.
Producers: we need an angelic voice for the credits.
Hannes: Gimme a sec. I know someone.
@@ATrainHC same joke in the comments on 2342 people reacting to this music video
@@Belnick6666 maybe I should read comments... but I really don't care.
This epic song was filmed in my country in August 2021 🤗 btw Floor at the end sounds heavenly 😍🎩 and Joakim ( singer) is 1/2 Czech, couse his mother was coming to Sweden from Czechoslovakia and his grandmother is living in Prague 🇨🇿 greetings from Czech Republic 🇨🇿🙏
8:11 this man is so powerful that he transformed an acoustic guitar into an electric
And not just any old acoustic but a real-life vintage-period guitar that is older than both of us put together.
The heart hears what the heart wishes to hear.
You should read about the Christmas truce from World War 1. Sabaton always have a historic background behind their songs!
Tommy Johansson the guitarist has his own band `Majestica` next Christmas I highly recommend listening to the entire `Christmas Carol ` album by them, it`s a masterpiece. Other than that `Above the Sky` is well worth a listen.
You now know Sabaton. You already knew Amaranthe. Look for those two bands together with "82 All the Way Live"
Yes Joakim, sings with rolling R's, he have explained that the reason for this is that when he sings he can stretch the lenght of the sentence so it matches the verse, making it easier for him to make the sentences work/rhyme/fit together. Simply by adding some more "R's".
I hope this makes sense it can be a little difficult to explain it in text.
I just saw him explain it helped to hide his accent when singing in English.
Can't wait till you react to this song 👍. You should know it's a true story what really happened on 1914 between the English and German troops. I love Sabaton !!!! . Very talented Power Metal Band. They too are a Swedish band. All of their songs and videos are absolutely top class. See you tomorrow and have fun 😀🤟🌹❤️
czcams.com/video/V_9buqpwCdM/video.html
British Troops not just English.
Roshan Jesook Also remember the French troops.
True story. There are also photos from the football match.
Probably not so paid attention to the end credits. 😉
Floor Jansen (Nightwish) was mentioned. She sang the end credits. She is also married to Hannes (drummer) of Sabaton. This is the one who got out of the trench first.
Go Sabaton, Go Floor!!!!!!!!
I love Floor Jansen's voice at the end.
Floor Jansen is married to Hannes Van Dahl the drummer of Sabaton and they have a daughter named Freja.
The Christmas Truce of 1914 is one of those stories that restores faith in Humanity. It was a real event, taking place roughly five months after the start of WWI. It was not one official truce, but multiple smaller truces all along primarily the Western Front between British and German units. The popular story goes that the British could hear the Germans singing Stille Nacht and then started to sing along with Silent Night. Afterwards, men entered into No Man's Land to exchange gifts, play soccer, hold mass, and bury the dead. Some truces lasted up to New Years, while there were some spots where the war persisted.
Floors outro is awesome 🤘🤗
Hello Bisscute, Sabaton is a very great band and this song is absolute a masterpiece with an epic ending. The contribution of Floor Jansen at the end is a cherry on a cake. And she did that before with the songs Ghost Love Score and Shoemaker where she added by herself the endparts with her own touch. GLS you commented before and I also would recommend to do Shoemaker on your playlist on this channel.
They are a great band just musically, but their storytelling and to strictly adhering to historical facts bring them on another another (intentionally) level.
Music and football. The two things that are almost guaranteed to bring people together.
I highly recommend No Bullets Fly for the next reaction. Keep handkerchief ready
true, but remember to take the long animated version.
Yes it was WWI, and you are right: soldiers will say "I shoot at a target, not at a person - I would be a murderer." Sabaton has succeeded in letting us feel this. So, indeed, a masterpiece.
Sabaton history channel for the songs is great too, they break down a lot of the historical stuff of the songs, and the creative of it as well.
Nice reaction, I would love to see you react to when they did En livstid i krig (a lifetime of war) live Scandinavium Gothenburg 2020. It is the Swedish version of you song so you might want to be sure the subtitles are one (even though they are a bit of a hit and a miss on some of the translations) I was there and it was simply an amazing show.
The fact that this is based on real events really adds to the emotional impact.
I get emotional everytime I watch this music video
I can't imagine how hard it must have been for the soldiers to go back to fighting each other after sharing a moment of peace and friendship.
At the end of the day we are all human and I wish we could focus more on what unites us instead of what separates us, that's my hope for the future, Powerful song
In the last part Floor is singin
Who ever built the trenches did an amazing job! Every detail in this video was perfect. 🤔👍
So is the guns and the uniforms. I think the work with some reenactors who really know their stuff.
This is why the project took six or seven years. :)
@@bradt8019 Oh, yes, it ABSOLUTELY was! :)
did you recognize the vocalist's voice at the end? is from Floor Jansen, wife of Hannes Van Dahl, drummer of Sabaton's band 😉
please, for next Sabaton song try react to "no bullets fly" czcams.com/video/dslO-3GgenY/video.html like this one is from a true story and to be watched to the end
czcams.com/video/V_9buqpwCdM/video.html
yes beautiful story
Sabaton is a Swedish band. The chrismas truce happened in 1914 when allies and central powers (just Germany) came together to celebrate Christmas the troops exchanged photos of families, chocolate, champagne and cigarettes, barbers gave hair cuts, they had ceremonies to bury the dead and of course play a game of football which I'm pretty sure the Germans won. The Pope wanted the soldiers to have a truce for Christmas every year but the national leaders rejected it so the soldiers had an unofficial truce and it was the one and only truce. All the events seen in this video I'd all true.
Its such impressive that we get to learn historical Facts using music , I simply Love it
Fun Fact: Hannes, their drummer (who gets blown up in the beginning) is married to Floor Jansen of Nightwish. He is Swedish, she is Dutch, and they live a quiet life in a beautiful country side of Sweden with their young daughter, dogs, cats and horses.
The beautiful operatic voice over the end credits is her.
Bisscute Hello, and you’re correct, The Christmas Truce is the Sabaton song based on the true story of the spontaneous Christmas truce of 1914, the first year of the First World War, at the time called The Great War, later The War to End all Wars; after months of continuing hardships, on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day all across the western line, the Germans, British, Scots, and French soldiers and captains put aside their weapons and came out of their trenches with food and drinks to celebrate Christmas in peace and harmony, they had the Christmas service, buried their dead, wrote letters home, and even had a good game of football aka soccer ⚽️, a few were able to kept the peace to New Year’s Day.
Sadly, didn’t last, nor be repeated till after 1918
In some parts of the trenches the truce lasted several weeks. Yes it's a song about the Christmas truce of WW1. It's a very heartlifting story and I encourage you to dig into it.
"LEST WE FORGET" - Nothing more to say about this and every other war (by a former soldier engaged three times in the war in Afghanistan).
Christmas is approaching, the soldiers feel that they have had enough of fighting and would like to forget about it for a moment. It is December 24, 1914, the British and Germans go out unarmed into No Man's Land to... play a football match.
Absolute fact.
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 will be releasing their 10th studio album on March 4th 2022.
Nice thing about them is that their video's never blocked so it's CZcams 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)

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.
End part singing was Floor Jansen Biscute :D
Hi Biscute! Awesome New Arch Enemy track and video 'Handshake With Hell' released just recently. Must be the best new song by anyone so far this year! Cheers - Take Care!
Thanks fore the sabaton reaction soo good
FLOOR JANSEN SING THE END VOCALS OF sabatons Chrismas Truce Floor is Married with the Sabaton Drammer Hannes van Dahl 🤘🤘🤘
Yes it did happen , 8 miles south of Ypres where my grandfather fought was gassed and was captured
yes this event actually indeed happend, the night before it was noted in a war diary that the Germans, Austria Hungarian, British, scottish and french were all singing o holy night and in the morning they emerged from the trenches drinking, playing football and exchanging gifts. of course when news got out about it the higher ups were furious cause it happend under their noses without their command, the day after was awkward since neither side wanted to fight because they just made new friends and neither side could bring themselves to do it. so the higher ups had to replace the battalions in those sectors to fix the issue.
Beautiful song, video, and reaction.
I dont comment often, but your reaction and your way of thinking of not only the band but allsaw the people in the background.. thats impressive. For being so young you really have a well placed heart and eyes for detales. Sorry spelling..i have dyslexia . And this band is from my country and i have meet them . they are humble guys.
Yes is realy happened. Love your reactions and emotions that are sincere 'that makes it beautiful to listen to and look at you because you are sincere and real.to see your beautiful humanity reacting to you is nice .and you have a beautiful sweet beautiful accent 'is really beautiful to listen to❤🤘🤘🥰
aww thank you I appreciate it so much
SABATON - En Livstid I Krig (Live - The Great Tour - Gothenburg)
I don't think you realised that it was Floor Jansen who sang the outro at the end credits. She is of course the wife of Hannes!! ( de drummer van Sabaton ).
Wonderful reaction to this song. You may want to also review Bismark from Sabaton.
Dear Bisscute, you honestly deserve each 'Like' you receive for your reaction(s). Like you I consider this a masterpiece and I did not mind my eyes watering. Its based upon a historical fact from WW1 and shows that even in most cruel times humanity does not vanish completly. What a message right now. Thanks to you and best wishes to all friends in Romania and for all your neighbors currently in danger. Stay well 🙏
This band is amazing and historically correct
Good reaction!
Sabaton is a Swedish band and pretty much all their songs are about true stories and historic events. If you like history or would like to know more about what the songs are about they have a Sabaton history channel that are great!
Here is a Sabaton rabbit hole in no particular order :)
SABATON - The Red Baron (Live - The Great Tour - Berlin)
SABATON - En Livstid I Krig (Live - The Great Tour - Gothenburg)
Sabaton has a channel where they deal with the background of all their history based songs, Sabaton history channel, looking there you can find out much more about what they are portraying
Great song to react to.
Kiitos!
Kiitos ❤️
the coolest way to learn history right here with Sabaton, just an FYI Floor Jansen's (from Nightwish) Husband was the guy and the grenade, also they have a History Channel that does a deep dive into all their songs so when you hear a song and want to know more about the history of it go to their history channel
Did you know, that Floor Janzen from Knightwish, is marriet to the drummer from Sabaton?
"Its war themed", yeah you'll notice that ALOT with Sabaton
Oh, you noticed the tree? Good! First reactionist who saw it. Symbolic blowing up of the piano, no more truce after that incident. What a production. Give credit for all the trench builders!
So this will become the best and most played Christmas song ever.
I did when I was very very little My grandma used to have a tree like this
hi bisscute great song by sabaton as some one else mentioned the drummer is maried to floor jansen allso towards the end a women sings that is floor singin also this is a true part of history it happened in no mans land in 1914 on christmas day and a english speakin solider who could speak german started singin a christmas song in german and hence the true story of wot happened
I am Infantry, and this is a tear puller every time no shame. Humanities Highest Acheivment, followed by its lowest, so tragical.
The soldiers on both sides were replaced because they would kill each other. Each side either didn't shoot or just shot up into the air. The trenches were so close that they actually tell jokes to each other. The rule you don't shoot and we will not shoot. They apparently had the right idea about war lets just talk instead.
No Bullets Fly (Animated Story Video) is one of the best from Sabaton
This is a very true story 😔. This is our home 🙏❤️ we have to find a way to live in peace. Then again...the word peace would not exist if it wasn't for war. We have to come around it and find a way to live as earthlings. 🙏❤️ It's our home !!!
it be wicked sexy when joakim(lead vocals/piano) hard rolls his R's
I can hear it as well , but I get it a lot that i Roll my Rs...so I am confused
The animated music videos are a must also Bismarck and Soldier of Heaven. Also great reaction.
Yes my dear biscute I think there is a story of a white dove that appeared in the mist of the battlefield and both sides stopped shooting at each other for that one day, if I'm not mistaken that incident was in world War 2
Ohh Yes Bisscute!!!!! More Sabaton from you please! It was very nice and interesting reaction from you! Where are you from....interesting that you , just like Joakim Brodén the singer, roll your "R:s" :-) I like it! Greetings from the province of Dalarna in Sweden - Home of Sabaton
Oh I am Romanian , where is he from ?
@@BisscuteReacts The band Sabaton is from the city of Falun in Sweden. They have their own festival there ...its a very pleasant festival in the summertime - Sabaton Open Air (I have been there twice) with people from all over the world!
Every Sabaton song is about an actual historical event. Try the animated (long!) video for Night Witches next.
Sabaton is the best Swedish power/heavy metal band of all time 🤘😎
Just be prepared, if you go down this rabbit hole you will find many many cute little bunnies.
Correct me if im wrong but is Bisscute part Japanese? If she is Sabaton has made a song about the last samurai called Shiroyama. If that is of interest!? 😊
I am not
Really late yeah lol Christmas was months ago now. Let the tears fly lol. Then Floor at the end as well so crazy good oh my just yes, please.
a song that goes well with this is the Pentatonix cover .. Imagine (Beatles song) .. captures the spirit of what is going on here ..
A true Story when German and British Soldiers celebrate Christmas together on 24 December 1914
by the way Hannes drummer of sabaton is married with Floor
You are a sweetheart
i recommend to check Galneryus - Wind Blows live or audio and band Hurriganes and their song "I will stay" :)
This wasn’t exactly my cup of tea but I can’t imagine anyone else I’d want to watch it with. Thanks for your commentary and I look forward to your next video 👍🏻
The Christmas Truce is may be the last act of humanity during this awful war..... The guys played football, exchange gifts, talk to each other, and from the next day again start to kill each other.... God Rest all their souls
The drummer of Sabaton is the Goddess Floor Jansen husband
"Lest we Forget" comes from a Poem by Rudyard Kipling:
'God of our fathers, known of old,
Lord of our far-flung battle line,
Beneath whose awful hand we hold
Dominion over palm and pine-
Lord God of Hosts, be with us yet,
Lest we forget-lest we forget!'
It's to say, may we never forget those who fell in battle.
Floor Jansen was the vocalist during the end credits. 😊🥰
Yes, the spontaneous Christmas truce in 1914 actually happened. And it was never repeated. In December 1915, the British soldiers were told that any of them who were found fraternising with the enemy would be arrested and court-martialed. If found guilty, the most likely outcome would have been the firing squad.
@Bisscute: All of their music is based on historic facts. It should be played in schools in the history lessons, I'm sure kids would be more interested in history.
this christmas truce happend, but only once becouse high command thought it made the soldiers weak.
And The Unkillable Soldier (Official Music Video)
Its coming soon
React sabaton smoke snakes ☺️☺️☺️
the song talks about 3 Brazilian soldiers who faced an entire battalion of Nazi soldiers, after the hard battle, the three were killed but were buried with honor by their own enemies.
Good video.
Fun fact: This video was filmed in the Czech Republic, as Joakim, the lead singer, is half-Czech.
@Bisscute: Do you want to feel a patriotic pride for another country? Then I recommend reacting to 40:1 by Sabaton, which is about the Polish Army during the initial blitzkrieg in 1939, holding off 40,000 German troops with only 1,000 Polish soldiers during the Battle of Wizna in Poland.
This sounds so interesting , I will look into it , thank you
Great video... you are one of the few who can do those reactions. They are a joy to watch and you have a cute accent too :) be sure to listen to their guitarist TOMMY JOHANSSON - You Raise Me Up (1 Octave Challenge) you will love it
Floor Jansen from NW is singin at the end.
Now you need to react to Rammstein's Deutschland. Another stunning historical metal song. It cost 6 million us dollars to make. The most expensive video of it's time.
Have you done "The Last Stand'?
I'll go look.
You will probably hate me for that, but yes they actuall blew up the Wagner Piano. But they gave away signed pieces of it to fans after that. And yes, this acutally happend. But the commanders thought it is bad for moral. So that never every happend again.
welcome to the Sabaton Rabbit Hole, glad to have you on board
I am Excited to be here , Thank you for your support
@@BisscuteReacts Buckle up, your in for a great and wild ride of your life
Ciao Biss, la guerra è un mostro terribile. Fino a quando non lo capiremo tutti l'Umanità non andrà avanti. Un abbraccio forte
I'd recommend you react to the ballad of bull also by Sabaton
React to ...No bullets Fly by Sabaton !!! Absolutely true and remakeble story and song. Watch the whole video until the end 👍🤟❤️🌹 Thanks love ..take care 🙏❤️🌹
It's a true story bisscute it was the British Vs Germany world war one they put down there weapons for Christmas day
