Sabaton don't block videos.
They instead encourage people to react and share.
As long as you pick videos from their own channel you're safe.
Only the live stuff from Wacken can be a little effy because there Wacken have a word.
becouse Sabaton have there on Label is the own ... :)
This is 100% Accurate, they actually went over that in the Camouflage magazine they make.
The question was asked
"There are so many people that react to your music on CZcams do you think that's a good thing?"
Joakim responded: "Of course! we have a fan base, and I'm sure the people who react and share their songs do too.
We love to teach history in what we call a primal form....with metal music we find it keeps the attention of people and people always say to us, we listen your song and we went and did research we learnt a whole lot, so in a video that's maybe a couple of minutes long people will remember the things they learnt always.
Interviewer: "The reactors think they will have their videos removed from CZcams because of copyright will this happen?
Joakim: "We own Nuclear Blast records we have had CZcams emails saying that your song appeared in this video do you wish to Claim the rights and we always....always respond with No!, we enjoy the feedback we enjoy the creativity we ourselves watch the reactions so why would we want to do that.
If CZcams ever copyright claims a reactor then we ask them to reach out to us and we will put it right.
@@dingodelta Wait. Sabaton *owns* Nuclear Blast Records?
Since you're Belgian I would recommend "Resist and Bite" and "Race to the sea"
Resist and bite fills me with Nationalist pride for Belgium and I'm from the US.
Yeeeees
They both are fire
not to forget "Screaming Eagles"....
FOR KING AND FOR COUNTRY WE
ARE FLOODING THE RIVER
Sabaton is from Sweden, founded in 1999. Most of their songs are war-history based. I learned more about history from their songs than from school.
You should listen to "Race to the see" and "Resist and Bite" that are both songs about Belgium history.
If you like epic music videos I recommend "Christmas Truce"
And they have a history channel called Sabaton History, where they explain the history behind their songs.
P.s. your german sounds pretty good 👍
They do have songs that aren't war-themed. It's just that those songs are from the time before they decided on direction for the band. Metall Machine is one of my favorites, you can make a game of catching all the heavy metall/hard rock references and easter eggs.
@@SailorYuki that's true, the earlier songs and covers. But that are not the songs most people do reactions to. Metal Machine is indeed a great one 😁👍
Not ALL songs are war history, they have a song commemorating the bands that inspired them
The skipper in the intro is the son of the last survivor, who died in 2018. The pocket compass is a true relic from the Bismarck, engraved with the position.
Joakim Brodén, lead singer and a founder member. I believe his tattoos has a Maorian or Pacific origin.
Pär Sundström, bass also a founding member. Those two write most songs.
Chris Rörland guirar on Joakims left, joined 2012.
Hannes Van Dahl drummer and married to Floor Jansen. Joined 2013
Last, but not the least, he is 1.95 cm tall Tommy Johansson guitar.
Tommy is a musical world of himself, also fronting his own band Majestica and doing solowork on his own channel. New release every week. Recommend his Phantom of the Opera, where he sings both parts himself. Incredible range we don't hear much of in Sabaton as Joakim has the perfect voice for their music.
I concur to everything my fellow Carina says here although it seems she is not quite in tune with her keyboard...lol 😆
@@CarinaLenita no, I'm too hasty sometimes, and hampered by autocorrect. Good thing there's something called edit!
Merry Christmas CarinaLenita🩷
Well, Joakim is not the singer of Sabaton, he is their keyboard player and just sings until they find someone better. :p
I recommend the animated version of "No bullets fly" by Sabaton. Such a fascinating story.
You should have the tissues ready for this. It's not unlikely to cry a bit while watching it 😉
I concur! ❤
I concur!
i agree..so amazing
This is the way!
Christmas Truce is another masterpiece you should check out. Perfect time of year for it also. Great reaction!
For sure, Christmas truce is 🔥🔥🔥
From Sweden, drummer is married to Floor Jansen of Nightwish
Dude, you’re the most intelligent reactor I’ve seen. You pause and talk all you want. Have a great Christmas!
Agreed, I can count one hand the number of reactors that catch the compass coordinates, let alone put it together before the end of the video.
@@terryhiggins5077 yeah, he at least said 1939-41! I’ve heard some idiots guess the American Civil War. I click off immediately.
Even though it wasn’t a hard guess. I’m sure you noticed he got “the battle of the Atlantic” while it was partially covered, when almost no other reactor had. At least that I’ve seen, and Ive seen quite a lot lol.
@@comradeglaz42 yeah, majority drive me friggin’ nuts when they can’t even get the war correct, let alone that the ship even existed.
@@detroitpolak9904 so true
Awesome reaction man. 🤘
I think Christmas Truce would be a magnificent follow-up to Bismarck to really highlight the variety of their music but also their ability to gut-punch you with an extremely emotional story.
Keep up the dope reactions! 🤙
I second that proposal and follow it up with the animated story videos for No Bullets Fly, Night witches, and Lady of the Dark - in that order. Tissues are strongly recommended - for the first one in particular. Also: Make sure to watch the video to the very end. They like to hide easter-eggs in there.
1916
The sologuitarist is Tommy Johansson, he also have a great band, Majestica, where he is lead singer. He also have a own you tube-channel where he release covers every friday. He has an amazing voice...so listen to him to!! With Sabaton, I recommend en livstid i krig (subtitles a must), 1916,the last standö and christmas truce. They sing about war and important historical events..perfekt historylessons ❤
From their homepage
"In the pivotal year of 2005, we unleashed our studio album, “Primo Victoria”. For Sabaton, this was a seismic milestone that reverberated through the very fabric of our existence, forever altering the trajectory of our lives.
“Primo Victoria” marked the birth of our musical identity. We had written and composed music prior to it, but never quite like this. It showed the world that we were tackling metal music in an alternative way with alternative methods, armed with a distinct niche: heavy metal infused with fact-based history.
“Primo Victoria” pays tribute to events in military history spanning various conflicts around the world. It features powerful, anthemic music and lyrical content based on real wartime experiences. Upon its release, the album struck a chord with both metal enthusiasts and history buffs, and we are beyond happy that it’s still a firm favourite among Sabaton fans today. We hope that we have created something timeless that will continue to resonate with people for decades to come…
Brother , welcome to Sabaton world. They are singing for Great wars,and many wars from the past, without taking any side. They are from Sweden. The drummer Hannes is husband of the Goddess Floor Jansen , to which you already got introduced. Nice reaction , and keep them up, Sabaton worth it. Also Tommy their lead guitarist got one of the best solo's in the industry.
Greetings from Bulgaria
The name of the boat is Primo Victoria. Another of their songs. Recommeded looks Christmas Truce, 1916, Race to the sea. They also have another channel called Sabaton History for those deep dives on their music's inspirations
Two of the best other than this one are 'Christmas Truce' and 'The Last Stand' Sabaton sings about history, but they don't take sides, they just tell the story. The video was done by World of Warships, for this song. The old guy in the video is not the guy who escaped the Bismarck...but I've been told he's a descendant of a Bismarck crewman.
All Sabaton's songs deserve promotion, and understanding, of the the tales they tell, at the end of each video is the Sabaton history channel that in detail explains the history. Since your Belgian. You will appreciate Sabaton song Race to the Sea. And associated history youtube video. The ship captain I s the son of the last Bismark survivior, the ship is named primo victory after Sabatons song about D day1944, it is remoured that they made this video above the Bismark's final resting place. SABATON and their label, nuclear blast, do not copy right strike reaction videos as they learned a long time ago it's free promotion, be sure to give them credit and thanks. While I think Race to the Sea is something you will like, Sabaton's tribute to Motorhead, covering their song 1916, is my request.
Resist and Bite also falls into the Belgian column. Little older, but still an awesome song.
I was introduced to them with Price of a mile, Christmas truce is awesome and it’s that time of year. Also there cover of Motorheads 1916.
Being from Belgium, I suggest "Christmas Truce" Motor Head tribute "1916" will shake you. They have their own History Channel also. Sabaton History. All the music is historical, correct, military based from year 0 to 2023. Also there Drummer Hannes Van Dahl is married to Floor Jansen of nightwish. Great reaction, new sub.
Hello from Florida USA.
More than just shake, it will make your soul weep.
Sabaton’s music is almost entirely focused on historical war events/people/military units. No Bullets Fly, Lady of the Dark, 1916, Nightwitches are all great choices for you next one. But Christmas Truce is very good and, it is appropriate for the season.
agreed. I do strongly recommend tissues for the animated story video of No Bullets Fly though.
It's power metal but it's all historical and reality based, except some of the cover songs they've done. Sabaton are one of the best story telling bands in the world. They don't glorify war which is probably why they are so successful. They present the facts as recorded by history. Winged Hussars is probably their most memed song because I don't think there is a single Sabaton video that doesn't have some reference to it. Swedish Pagans is beloved by fans the world over. There are so many amazing songs though. They have songs about most of the major well known heroes from WW1 and 2. They have songs from the view point of just about every nation that has engaged in major conflict. They have one called ballad of Bull which is probably their most unique song because it's about a guy who became a hero without firing a shot, about the Aussie stretcher bearer Leslie "Bull" Allen. He received a silver star from the United States military for his actions. Really starting anywhere in the Sabaton catalogue is great because they have been so fucking prolific. One of their albums has the honour of being the most successful Swedish heavy metal album ever and of course it would be because it is done in English and Swedish and every song on the album "Carolus Rex" is a banger. Hell I listen to it in Swedish and I don't even speak it, it's that fucking good.
Sabaton is their own genre.
Man if you're Belgium then "Race to the sea" and "Resist and Bite" are absolute bangers from them! An absolute must watch! Love your reactions big guy and I'll be looking forward for more ❤
There is one song that is even more appropriate - especially given the season. Christmas Truce. Because as far as I am aware, the actual memorial-cross for that event is located in Belgium.
if you are from Belgium look up the song Resist and Bite! abut a Belgium unit at the beginning of WW2 that held up the Germans! great song! Joakim plays guitar on this track it is the only song he does.
And the Race To The Sea, about the King Albert of Belgia in WWI
I forgot that was about Belgium. @@carinarodebak9419
Welcome to the wonderful world of Sabaton! As others have probably already told you they're a Swedish band, and not only do they write great music, you'll also learn a ton of interesting history listening to them, as basically all their songs are about military history in one form or another. They even have a history channel with videos detailing the story and historical facts behind their songs.
Since it's Christmas soon I highly recommend checking out Christmas Truce, which is another great song and video by them. Other songs I personally like a lot are Soldier of Heaven, The Last Stand, Primo Victoria, The Red Baron, No Bullets Fly (the animated video is amazing!), Race to the Sea and Winged Hussars.
Sabaton is a Swedish power metal band from Falun, which was formed in 1999. The band's songs are inspired by various historical wars. Even the band name is military inspired, as Sabaton is also the name of the part of the armor that covers the foot. Sabaton has toured with, among others, Iron Maiden, Scorpions and Hammerfall.
”Christmas Truce” and ”Great War”.
Two good songs!
Sabaton, learn history, have feelings, let them go, enjoy every minute!
You don't have to fear copyright claims from Sabaton, I think. They have really embraced the reaction community. There are many interviews with the band members on different channels, for example Charismatic Voice.
My recommendations would be 40:1 and Uprising. Live versions from the Polish Woodstock festival. The songs are about Poland in WWII and the massive crowd goes absolutely bonkers 😂
I believe they own their copyrights so people can do vids like this
yes and no.. As far as I am aware they switched to Napalm Records somewhat recently, and from what i heard those folks are a bit trigger-happy with copyright-claims, even if Sabaton themselves are not. So better safe than sorry.
This video is copyrighted by Sabaton's label. They do not release their copyright claims. Just to let you know.
Welcome to the Sabaton Army! Great reaction! Sabaton is a Swedish metal band. Most of their songs are based on historical events. Since it is Christmas, you should try "Christmas Truce". Then try a live concert video "en livstid i krig". This one is in Swedish so you will need the subtitles. This one will give you a good idea of the fan base Sabaton has.
Christmas Truce from Sabaton is KILLER. You also have to watxh all the way through the credits and try to see if you can figure out whe sings in the credits. Its an ABSOLUTE Banger!!❤❤ happy Holidays 🎄💕🎉🎁😅
I concur
Christmas Truce! ❤️
The man at the beginning of the video with the compass is the son of the man who took the compass off the admiral of the Bismark.
All of Sabatons music is about warrelated events. I’m not sure but I think they let people react & share the MVs without problem.
You should watch ”En livstid i krig” live version with subtitles!!! ”Price of a mile” & their version of ”1916”
Great Reaction!
It's cool that you pay attention to every detail, 99% of reactors don't even catch the detail with the coordinates on the compass. And I like that you are following the lyrics, most of Sabaton's songs either have captions on their more famous MV's, or they have 2 versions of a song, one being a "Lyric Video" version, which is better for reactors who enjoy the lyrics.
Next I would recommend "No Bullets Fly" The Animated Story Video.
The song "No Bullets Fly" is one of my favorites, and the animated story video paints the full picture of that incredible story. It has captions for the lyrics and the narrator telling the story.
Sabaton is a power metal band from Sweden that sings songs about War. Not to glorify war, but to show the Heroism in war, the Epic Last Stands, and the struggle of doing what's right no matter the cost or odds.
Other songs you may check out: "Race to the Sea" and "Resist and Bite" because you are Belgian.
Here comes suggestion, SABATON - En Livstid I Krig, must be live from goteborg with close captions on.
Since you're from Belgium, for Sabaton songs I shall recommend "Resist and Bite" (one of their most underrated gems) and "Race to the Sea"
Oh, and now you have to learn some Swedish since Sabaton are from here 🙂
It’s a swedish band… and welcome to the history world of Sabaton. Next you could do: Christmas Truce (official) or/and “En Livstid I Krig” - live from Gothenburg (always subtitles - this is sung in Swedish) 👍‼️🏆
great reaction, every song of sabaton it's an history lesson, be ready for that
If you do "En livstid i krig - Live in Gothenburg" you have to remember to have the subtitles on since the song is in swedish, and the lyrics ad so much to the experience.
Race to the Sea is about the belgian king and one of my favorite Sabaton songs
Two of my favorite songs from Sabaton are 40-1 and Winged Hussars. I’m a sucker for the history and metal combo they do.
New subscriber here I think you’re interesting and pretty cool , I highly recommend Sabaton, “No bullets fly” animated story video , Night Witches & Christmas truce
great reaction, more please.
Sabaton is a Swedish band with a loooong list of history based music.
Sabaton also has an award winning history channel that gives background to over 120 if their songs (not music award, academic, aimed at education of the public) .
Sabaton videos are often have dedictions and/or messages at the end, perhaps not always but... watching to the very end is frequently well worth it.
Animated STORY videos (short Animated history lessons with music videos in them)
No bullets fly ,enemy show mercy to injured foes
Night witches, young women who fight the Nazi and do it with insane success afains all odss and adversity (discrimination, being given obsolete equipment...)
Lady of the dark
Red baron , the famous fighter pilot .
first soldier , about a unlikely French war hero.
Epic ORIGINAL videos.
You just saw Bismark, about the sinking of the ship
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 (with odds actually close to 55:1 they held for 3 DAYS when ammunition and supplies ran out.
Uprising, the Warsaw Uprising against the nazi germans 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
Screaming Eagles, about the battle of the bulge
Live performances
40:1 from poland
Uprising 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.
Two covers that are good
Defence of Moscow, self explained
1916 about the devastating battle of the somme in ww1, casualties topped 1 milion if you count both sides, all for 6 miles of ground,
these are just some, there are plenty more.
Defense of Moscow is special since it's a cover of a song that was written to sound like a Sabaton made by a russian youtuber/musician called Radio Tapok Who has performed live with Sabaton, has borroewed one of their video sets for one of his covers.
Great reaction to Sabaton!.. I hope for more... 🤘
I love their music.
They're Swedish. Thanks for the reaction 🔥
Sabaton history is an amazing channel that gose over more of the history the songs are based off of & you are correct Bismarck is one of the biggest battle ship of it's time and it got hunted down and sunk
Hi Anthony! Great reaction! A lot has been said already about Sabaton. And here is another snippet of info. A sabaton is an iron shoe worn by medieval knights as part of their armor. And please react to "Christmas Truce" as it took place near Ieper (Ypres), in your country. Groetjes uit Nederland!
Your comment on War is right on point and very true. I adore Sabaton as I love history but also their style of music to make a great combo.
I would say you should check out uprising live at woodstock poland 2012. They are from Sweden. Great reaction!
Great reaction, instant sub for this one. Keep em coming. All the best from Sweden.
Great reaction...you must react to live version of Sabbaton's En livstid i krig.....totally epic!
There is no time better than now to react to Christmas Truce. Take the video to the end-watch the credits! Great reactions!
You don't really need to pause sabaton's videos, they love reaction videos to their songs. Take as an example chainbrain, he played sabaton songs live for over an hour and multiple times played an entite album and has not gotten a single copyright claim.
Multiple videos which are 10hours of a single song are uploaded and no copyright claim, they have commented on a few reaction videos made to their songs thanking the person who did a reaction video❤
Christmas Truce (for this time of year.) Also, welcome to the Sabaton rabbit hole. As someone else mentioned Winged Hussars is another good one. The lyric video is good as well, but i like the knightscg archive version as it shows what happened (there is no music video.)
More sabaton, just scroll through reaction videos or comments you will find more amazing songs. remember to NEVER stop a sabaton video before it has fully ended.
Also singer Joakim Broden is half czech half swedish, he was raised mostly in sweden but if i remember correctly, his mother is czech
Dan Vasc loves this group & he’s done quite a bit of covers of their music…speaking of…Dan just dropped a new metal Christmas song “Oh holy night” & he’s said it’ll melt your face off…& it will!
Dan's version is really special. I love it
I actually appreciate that he mentions WHY he pauses the video. So many reaction channels will pause 20 times and also go back 15 seconds in the video to avoid copyright, but they never say they're avoiding copyright.
So this guy just seems more transparent by stating it. Props to you, man
welcome to sabaton. its a Swedish metal band. have a ton recommendations. but since it is that time of the year, sabaton Christmas truce the music video, would be a great one to react to. remember to watch it to the end.
Welcome to Sabaton! Nightwish army checking in. These guys do an excellent job relating moments in history. Great videos and songs. Christmas Truce is a good seasonal tune. Sabaton reminds of moments lost. Tommy Johansson lead guitarist, has his own page does excellent covers. And the dru.mer Janes.is married to Floor Jansen of Nightwish.
As a retired combat veteran I **LOVE** Sabaton's music. They tell the *TRUE* stories from war, and they don't "take sides" - they tell true tales of heroism, mercy, and valor. If I may request - my fav is "No Bullets Fly" (the 8min 50second animated story video) - it tells the true story of a WWII German fighter pilot who saw a *severely* damaged B-17 (American 4-engined bomber) and flew in to finish it off. But when he got closer he could see it was shot to pieces and that the wounded crew was tending to the OTHER wounded crew. He could not shoot it down - so, instead he ESCORTED IT out of Germany to safety. Then, 40 years later the two pilots met and became very close friends.
You wont have to worry about Sabaton blocking your videos, they encourage people to react to their videos to spread their music to more poeple.
Saw Sabaton a few years ago,they are soo good live. The drummer was on a Tank for the riser haha❤
Awesome, I discovered Sabaton recently, and I am glad I found your reaction!! I love the diversity in your reactions
The Swedish band Sabaton has a historic background in all their songs that you can read about. Bis, Christmas truce, The last stand, no bullets fly and so on......
They even have a history channel where they break down the history behind the songs.....
The drummer is married to Nightwish lead singer Floor Jansen.
You should listen to their songs, storytime, the greatest show on earth, and ghost love score etc.....
Welcome to the rabbit hole that is Sabbaton! Hope you like it here, we got cookies and metal! :D Sabaton are masters of storytelling and the way that they keep history alive through music is incredible. I've been a Sabaton fan since the early 2000's and I hope you will find the same joy in listening to their music as I have. You've already gotten some really good suggestions but one of my favourite songs is The Last Stand. A song about the attack on Rome in the 1500's.
Sabaton came to the US and took time to visit the battleships we have as museums.
"Primo Victoria" is the name of the boat and their first studio album. The title song is about D-Day.
A good movie to understand the Battle of the Atlantic is the 1960 movie "Sink the Bismarck". It was one of my inspirations to enlist in the US Navy in 1984.
That boat captain is the IRL son of the Bismarck survivor depicted.
I like to call Sabaton - Valor Metal.
You so need to check out their song "Race to the sea" Belgium song 😅
You certainly did have me fooled for a moment with your accent, I thought you were on this side of the Pond! Hello from the middle of Canada, and welcome to Sabaton fandom! I'm not absolutely sure what ALL of us are called, but we ladies are Night Witches (after some seriously amazing bomber pilots/navigators chasing the Germans out of Russia in WWII). You'll want to check out ... well, ANY of the animated story videos, where Sabaton collaborated with an animation studio called YarnHub.
Christmas Truce would also be timely, and as mentioned below, it'll hit you right in the feels. Cheers, and happy holidays!
Fun thing is, i first even heard about sabaton when i was at a festival, gates of metal 2005, they didn't sound amazing or anything, played the small stage, but WHAT catched my ear back then was that they were playing a comedic swedish song: långa bollar på bengt, long balls on bengt.
And i kept an eye on them and just grew more and more into them as they progressed, and that is still ongoing. They don't stop growing on me because of their standpoint on war and how they glorify regular people in them but also make kickass music from historical points is amazing, not to mention they are insanely good musicians and performers.
They LITERALLY bring people from other countries together more than other bands, i have been to their own festival 5 times, the last 3 times i was there when they played the swedish En livstid i krig i got into groups of people from all over europe singing it in swedish.
Also i think you would love: En Livstid I Krig live in gothenburg, have subtitles on and mind the feels in that song!
A suggestion because it fits perfectly right now: Sabaton - Christmas Truce. Wonderful song, heartbreaking but wonderful. definitely a staple on any metal christmas-playlist.
The office memorabilia and compass were the property of the last survivor of the Bismark. He died 1 year prior to this vid being released. The fishing boat skipper is his son.
Anthony ray and sabaton! HELL YEAH!
They don't copystrike, they have their own label and have stated they do not copystrike anything! :D
They don't strike, but they do claim. bot my Sabaton reactions received copyright claims
I recommend "Christmas Truce", "1916", the animated version of "No bullets fly" and the live version of "En Livstid I Krig" in Gothenburg.
If I’m not mistaken the guy who had the compass in the beginning (the guy who was on the ship before the band arrived) is the actual son of the Bismarcks captain who was given the compass with the coordinates engraved as it was sinking. His dad perished but he survived and they actually got him to be in the music video
The Bismarck was one of the biggest warships of that time.
The cannons they used on the ship are of the same type standing at the shores of the Normandy.
Also it is rumored to be called a "he" while all other ships are "she" and the way it sunk is still a little mystery. Some say the British navy was able to sink it while others think the crew sank the Bismarck by themself to avoid letting the enemy salvage it and getting new information.
Also there was the second ship of the Bismarck class called Tirpitz which also got a song. But this time by the German metal core band Heaven Shall Burn.
And as we are close to Christmas may give "Christmas Truce" from Sabaton a try. Telling the story from WW1 when soldiers from both sides decided to stop the shooting on Christmas day, talking to each others, exchanging presents, sang songs and also played soccer.
ALL German warships were referred to as HE. There is no mystery about the sinking. After the torpedoes from the Royal Navy Swordfish biplanes had damaged the steering Bismark was never going to escape. After being pounded & suffering heavy casualties the seacocks were opened and the ship was skuttled deliberately
@@richardwest6358 Nope.
Take Scharnhorst, Tirpitz, Prinz Eugen.
They all go by the she pronoun in German which is "Die".
Only when you use the type of ship like cruiser, battle ship and so on in German it is then either he (der) or neutral (das).
To Hell and Back music video, Devil Dogs Lyric Video, Final Solution Live Version
Edit: welcome to the Sabaton Army; Pär is on record pointing out that while Sabaton is often classified as Power Metal they consider themselves Heavy Metal since they don't have the high vocals and fantasy themes characteristic of Power Metal
You're the first reactor i've seen pay attention to the compass and the guy sabaton talks to about finding the boat. I too thinks its him from his time onboard the bismarck but it could be his son since if he was on bismarck during ww2 he would be like 90 when the filming took place. So its probally his son who was given the symbolic compass of his father as a gift.
Dude!!!!!! How many reactions I've watched done on this video and YOU ARE THE FIRST reactor I've seen catch the connection with the compass!! There maybe others but I've probably seen close to 100 people do this one and no one catches it. We'll done (and a great reaction overall)
Either the Sabaton lyric or animated music video to their song Lady of the Dark.
Sabaton is my favorite metal band, they have created a fantastic way for people to learn about history they might not have ever known about.
And they got the Fairey Swordfishes right- the aeroplane that sunk the most axis shipping in the Atlantic theatre
Hi there, wonderful you found my favourite band. I have been listening to a lot of your, ( specific home free and Dan Vasc) reaction.
The lead singer is Joakim Brodén.
The old man in the beginning is the son of the young man you got saved from the water. It is one of many epic songs from Sabaton. They tell history in their songs.
That Guitarist you heard there is Tommy Johansson. Another extremely good singer who has his own CZcams channel you should check out.
As for Sabaton, you are from Belgium, so " the race to the sea" would be very interesting for you because it is Belgium war history. I hope you do a lot more Sabaton songs...
They are from Sweden, by the way
(at the time) Bismarck was the largest naval vessel ever created. Obviously it was powerful, but story of bismarck is more about symbolism.. It was great honor for the germans. It was also great importance for UK to sink it. Churchill wanted that boat destroyed any means necessary, before it can go from germany to artic ocean. There was a large hunt for the ship, while bismarck tried to hide Norways ports during its travel. Then they found it. And yes, like the song, they sank it.
I can also recommend the animated videos they made with Yard Hub. Both Nigh Witches and No Bullets fly are fantastic (the later is crazy)!
And, as many here have already mentioned, Resist and Bite is also great. A quite unknown story about Belgium heroes, only 40 rifles strong, taking on Rommel's tanks.
So many people never notice the watch which is the most important part of the video with the coordinates of the final position of the Bismarck, the song is awesome as is the band , you learn so much from Sabaton 🤘
It's really cool.. The line "They are bound by iron and blood"
Was a throw back to the original man named Bismarck who unified Germany in 1871 after Prussia (The biggest germen state) won a war against the arch enemy France.
In his legendary speech he said: "The big questions of the time will not be decided through speeches or majority decisions, but through iron and blood."
Bismarck just had that specific thing to rule a country.. The strongest country at the time with the British Empire. He was a realistic person.. Not optimistic and not pessimistic..
Of course peace is cool and all that stuff.. Bismarck loved peace.. But at the end of the day.. You can't satisfy everyone.. And humanity will fight eventually. Now that doesn't mean you should talk at first.. But at the end of the day.. Iron and blood will decide. That's our sin..
Greetings from Germany 😂❤
Hi, mede Belg die op de Parking van Antwerpen woont hier!
Sabaton heeft ook liedjes over veldslagen die plaatsvinden in België
Resist en Bite gaat over de Ardense Jagers die in het begin van WO2 hun bevel om zich terug te trekken niet gekregen hadden omdat de Duitsers hun telefoonkabels hadden doorgeknipt. Ze besloten hun origineel bevel te volgen en vochten met 40 soldaten tegen de Duitsers die met veel meer waren. En ze hebben ze nog 18 dagen kunnen tegenhouden.
Race to the Sea gaat over de overstroming van De Ijzer om er voor te zorgen dat het Duitse leger de geallieerden niet kon omsingelen.
Screaming Eagles gaat over Amerikaanse soldaten die volledig omsingeld waren in de slag om Bastogne tijdens het Ardennenoffensief van 1945.
En The Price of a Mile, over Passendale. Groetjes vd op de parking, meer bepaald Brugge😉🤘
Joachim has a varied accent. He has dual citizenship as his Mom is Czech and his Dad is a Swede. He speaks English with a more Germanic accent than Swedish, though some stuff favors Swedish.
One of our neighbors who died years ago was a survivor of the Bismarck. He was very miserable for the rest of his days. Poor soul.😢

A little more info on the bismarck that the song and video leave out:
When bismarck placed a direct hit on Hoods deck and ignited the ammunition on board, and prince of whales i believe it was, took more damage from Bismarck, prince of whales retreated for repair, the royal navy sent all available boats with the simple order to "sink the bismarck" and then the real fight began, planes dropping torpedos, one torpedo stuck the rudder in a turned position causing bismarck to just go in circles, it became a sitting duck, taking (last numbers i read) 700 shells from the royal navy, and 8 torpedos before the crew on board the bismarck was ordered to scuttle the ship as they knew there was no chance
The amazing thing about Sabaton is that you'll find a French crowd singing along with a Swedish band in English to a song about the Germans fighting the Russians. But it's not all just World Wars either, there are great songs about everything from ancient Greece ("Sparta") to the sack of Rome ("The Last Stand") to the Battle of Vienna in 1623 ("Winged Hussars") to the Satsuma Rebellion in Japan ("Shiroyama"), plus songs about individual soldiers ("82nd All the Way" about Alvin York, "To Hell and Back" about Audie Murphy, "Carolus Rex" about King Charles XII of Sweden, and "White Death" about Finnish sniper Simo Hayha, among others). So many amazing songs... plus you'll learn a shocking amount of war trivia just from the lyrics.
1. Your memory in the begging was spot on - just mild inaccuracies. Very impressive from pure memory!
2. Until you said you were Belgian, I had no idea, I heard no accent. You might enjoy ''Resist and Bite' and 'Race To the Sea' by the same band - Both are about Belgium! To be fair, I imagine you will like most of Sabaton's songs regardless of where the songs are based on.
3. In all of the reactions I' have seen, you're the first I have seen to make the connection between the boy and the old man with the compass or locket.
4. Sabaton is a Swedish band that performs songs based on various (usually military) historical events.
love all of your reactions Anthony. sabaton is amazing, it was great watching your face during this, (btw the lead singer is Joakim Broden, he's from Sweden)
also need to say that it makes me happy to see you proudly state that you are from Belgium :)
Well obseved: the man with the clock is the son of the guy who rescued at the end.
The first review I've seen where someone picked up the pocket watch. That's the Easter egg they put in the video. The tug boat skipper was the survivor of the sinking of the Bismarck. Nobody reacting to this video picked it up. I saw it the first time.
Hello from Estonia! My daughter likes this band, i like Finnish bands like,The 69 eyes,HIM,The Rasmus and more...
En Livstid I Krig live version please ♥
Very attentive Anthony Ray! you noticed the compass. Sabaton is a Swedish band. They do songs in tribute to every nation.
sabaton are masters at what they are doing. they don´t just wire songs, they tell stories.
