![Teacher Reacts To "En Livstid I Krig - Sabaton" [BEST EVER]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/1r5_9CX2h0g/mqdefault.jpg)
When the crowd sings like that in the beginning is when you know you've truly made it as a band.
@Antonio Phoenix @Jonas Mathias everyone knows your both bots lol
Crowd singing the intro is among the best I've seen
The Swedish version is about what one soldier is writing about the 30 years war.
The English version is more about just the war itself.
The Swedish text is also wat more deep than the English One, like in the entire Carolus Rex album.
The swedish lyrics is from the swedish peoples point of view, the english lyrics is from the third party point of view thats why the lyrics are different.
The entire album is 200% better in swedish
So .ych passion
I'm glad you took the time to find out about the song and what it means. In North America, we have no experience with the concept of there being a war that gobbles up generations , and kills MILLIONS. We have no concept of long drawn out wars happening on our doorsteps, spreading famine and misery. Yet this has happened over and over in Europe. The background of the song was a war that happened between 1618 and 1648, ALMOST 400 YEARS AGO!!! And there's a good half of Sweden, singing the words back to Sabaton with GUSTO.
How amazing it must have been to be n that stage, to hear and see that audience, all bent on hollering out that song together.
Thanks! Yeah, it was interesting to learn about it. I've always been fascinated by those older wars that were much slower and drawn out. I can't imagine what it was like to live through those times. Such a powerful topic matched by beautiful music, performance and the passionate crowd. :)
Thank you Sandra for this comment. I tried to give you this appreciation before, but obviously CZcams don't like me to express my feelings in public. Anyway, Mrs and I take your comment as an positive question of honour, and therefore those gatekeepers of CZcams can't manage it, but I'll tell you, we Swedes - at least many of us - are harder than many of the leftist thinks.
We will come and get you!

@@lanapleym8577 FYI I am half Swedish! My Dad's parents came to Alberta and set up a home in Drumheller, Dad and his siblings were born there. My Dad was the youngest, and is now the last, at 82.
And for all that wonders, Sabaton is our favorit band. Ofc.
@@SandraNelson063 Nice to hear. I hope our past goes future somewhere. Not with MENA! /Michael
I was there. I've seen this video 100s of times. I've listened to the son 100s of times more and I know all the lyrics. Yet, I get goosebumps and falling tears. Every. Single. Time.
Same for me
me toooo, and I wasn't even there :'D
I was also there. It was AWESOME!
3 Danes disliked this video remembering that they lost that war.
Them Danes.
🤣🤣🤣
As i dane myself, i sang along to the entire song, and stood first row on this exact concert. Great times were had, music really unites us all
😂😂😂
We let you win that one, you have to let your brother win sometimes or he wont want to play with you anymore.
@@fet_frug KALMAR UNION!!!!!!!!!!!
The "i" is pronounced like the english "e". The rest was quite flawless for a non-local. :)
Haha thank you! I realized as soon as Joakim announced it :D
Here's for anyone that wants the (rough) translated lyrics
I turn around and see my home disappear
My time at home now feels to me, far too short
Only youth, barely a man when duty called.
If I will see my home again, That I do not know
Among kinsmen from my village, I went out into battle
And the world burned
Because the war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who will miss me?
So see me as
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never comes home
But who mourns me?
Went out in battle for Sweden, was baptized in blood
Out there, death awaits, no heroism
On the fields where kinsmen fall, no song is heard
Challenging our destinies, once again
Far from home
Be baptized and die in battle
And the world burned
Because the war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who will miss me?
So see me as
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never comes home
But who mourns me?
And when my time has run out
Who will care?
They fight on
Does a soldier get a dignified end?
Fall asleap.
Fade away
And never wake up
Because the war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who will miss me?
So see me as
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never comes home
But who mourns me?
The drummer is the husband of Floor Jansen (Nightwish). :)
I love this band! How can i say anything else beeing a proud neighbor to the country they are from 🇳🇴🙌🏼😊 Song title is in my language, and i can hear every word in this awesome song! Great reaction ! Greetings to you all from The Shieldmaiden from Norway ⭐️🤗
As a Swede and fellow Sabaton-fan, it's always nice to see people of other nationalities enjoy them! However... "Pearson" is definitely Swedish/scandinavian in origin. "Persson" or "Pärsson" (It's spelled different in some families) ,does not mean "son of a pear.. It Means "Son of Pär". (Pär/Per is a common name here). I know someone mentioned it earlier... but you should look into your heritage. =) Nice reaction vid. Keep it up.
Hi Ricke, thanks for your kind words! Even as a non-Swede, it's hard not to be moved by a performance like this. Anything that brings people together in a positive way like this is beautiful. Yes, I've often wondered if I have Scandinavian heritage. I will do one of those DNA tests and keep you posted haha. Thanks again - more Sabaton videos coming soon. :)
Många som har reaktion videos till denna låten på sistone ja vet inte varför, vet du? :)
The how do you explain the movie ""Ett päron till farsa" ;)
@@PastramiStaven Vild gissning, verkar trenda bland olika reactkanaler, dom flesta är betalda eller på önskemål av följare.
har kollat kanske 5 liknande videos innan denna, en härlig känsla att se någon med annan nationalitet (som kanske inte förstår svenska) njuta av en av våra stoltheter.
I guess its tending among reactchannels, most of them are payed-request or just requested by their followers. Ive just benchwatched maybe 5 similar videos prior to this one.It's a great feeling to se someone with another nationality (that maybe dont understand a word) enjoy one of our prides.
@@ThomFoolery1 You definitely have scandinavian heritage. Pretty much all surnames with the ”son” ending is nordic.
So glad you like Sabaton. One of the best live bands I have had the pleasure of seeing live. I saw them in Charlotte NC USA on a Tuesday night in 2012 with only about 20 other people in the room. Joakim looked at the crowd and basically said that this was more than they expected. The band put on a performance worthy of a crowd of 20,000. True professionals and even better people. Fast forward to October 2019 in Atlanta GA USA...Sabaton performed in front of a Sold Out crowd (most of the USA shows were sold out in 2019). It is has been wonderful to see the popularity of the band grow of after all of their hard work and dedication to their music.
Hey Jon! Yeah, it's hard not to love these guys. They seem so hard working and honest. There's a lot of love and fun put into their performances which is so infectious. Awesome that you've been able to witness their journey from the start! 🙂
The lyric där ute väntar döden inte hjältemod made me cry
The show was magical i was there in the front and the entire crowd was singing.
Var också där, riktigt sjuk show. Tur att konserten hann vara innan alla restriktioner
Jag var också där, fyfan vilken upplevelse!!
Also my first time listening to this song. What a rich and powerful work. Powerful, inspirational and moving.
I got really choked up listening to this. It makes you feel all kinds of emotions. That crowd were outstanding what an atmosphere. Epic🤘 I love how its filmed from behind very cool!👌🏻
This was the last concert I was at before things shut down, I'm happy that it was a good one (Amaranthe and Apocalyptica where the other bands, and they where great too), love that they decided to put this version up (there are other similar videos of other songs from the other tour stops) Brings back the memories , but I really starting to miss going to concerts now...
Oh wow, that's an incredible lineup! That must have been amazing! Can't wait for the world to start gigging again. 😃
Same. I Saw 'em in Stockholm and it was amazing
Sabaton, only a few hours ago, just released an animated version of Night Witches and it looks so good! They also included an audio sample from the Sabaton History Channel that introduces who whe women pilots were and what the song is about.
Oh awesome! I'll check that out! :)
Man I was just about to request you for this reaction. Thanks man. ❤ From India with love to all my Metalhead Brothers 🤘🏿
Craziest thing I've ever experienced. Was totally mindblowing live.
I WAS THERE AND IT WAS SOOOO FUCKING EPIC! This moment has carried me through this shit year of 2020 so much tradegy this year and so much struggle but this moment is gonna stay in my heart forever.
JAG ÄLSKAR GÖTEBORG
My try for translation which makes more sense in English.
Motherland isn't the perfect translation because in Swedish it's "Fosterland" and that basically means
country where you have grown up and which you love, your homeland
I look behind me and watches as my home dissapears before me.
My time at home now feels way too short.
Yet a youth, hardly a man when duty called
Will I see my home again?
Among friends and relatives I head out for battle.
And the world burned.
Because war will ruin a man
I give my life for my motherland
But who will miss me?
So see me as a husband a friend, father and son that shall never return home.
Who will mourn for me when i'm gone?
Went out to war for Sweden, baptized in blood
Out there only death awaits us, not heroism
On fields where friends are falling no song can be heard.
Challenging our fates yet another time.
Far away from home(be baptized and killed in battle)
And the world burned
Because war, will ruin a man
I give my life for my motherland
But who will miss me?
So see me as a husband a friend, father and son that will never return home.
Who will mourn for me when i'm gone
?
When my time has run out, will anyone care
They fight on
Will a soldier get a worthy end
Get his rest and fade away to never awake
Because war will ruin a man
I give my life for my motherland
Who will miss me?
So see me as a husband a friend, father and son that will never return home.
But who will mourn for me?
Thank you so much for checking this out!! It was the perfect reaction, so emotional for the country.
Thank you very much! I'm glad you enjoyed it. Yes, I can only imagine what it was like to be there!
The swedish and english version/ lyric are not the same. Its not a direct translation but another song.
Good to know, thanks!
Thomas Pearson yeah they English version takes a third person view to ten conflict of the Thirty Years War while the Swedish versions as you listened to takes the perspective of a single Swedish Soldier who served during it.
@@reecedignan8365 Thanks for sharing! That is interesting. I wonder why they made it different for the translated version. I prefer the idea of the first person perspective.
Thomas Pearson
Funny enough the album this comes from - Carolus Rex - they wrote said album in both English and Swedish (their native tongue). As such I believe they wanted to do something special for said album and started changing a few things to reflect that said album is all about Swedish patriotism - Carolus Rex being Charles the XV if Sweden - as such for the Swedish version of the songs they made this one more personal - as Swedish troops served in the 30 year war, even tho it took place in the German states.
The Swedish version has different lyrics than the recorded english version yes, but the embedded lyrics in this video is a pretty good translation of this version.
Saw them in Stockholm and we also sang along in the beginning! Was an awesome experience! \m/
I was there. This song is one of my most precious concert memories in recent years.
That must have been awesome! Thank you! 😀
I was at that show and its the best concert I have been to. It was amazing to hear 11000 people sing ❤
I am so envious! :)
@@ThomFoolery1 Make your way to a show when they come around mate.
@Yamadori Ryoushi Same here ;)
I was at their show in February in Antwerp, my last concert before COVID shut everything down... it was so amazing. Awesome detail: there’s also an English version of this song, but the lyrics aren’t half as heartwrenching as these... seems like a different song on the same theme.
When i listen to this song i feel close to tears and get goosebumps every time. I listened to this song for the first time (i think) when my brother was in Afghanistan during the war against Osama. He was stationed in a safer part of the country, but anything could still happen. Luckily he got back he got back safe and sound!
I was there live in Gothenburg. Sabaton is amazing live, the crowd goes wild and the band members are having a blast on stage. En Livstid i Krig is especially awesome as live perfomance with everyone singing along
Thats awesome! I can only imagine how great it was in person.
I love all these reactions to Sabaton songs! This is a good one. Thank you. ❤
I was in that crowd, very close to the stage as well, definitely the most amazing consert moment I've ever experienced.
Awesome! I am envious! :D
Defiantly a beautiful performance. Perhaps my all time favorite live band performances that I’ve seen on CZcams.
Edit: I always get chills whenever they hit the chorus.
Edit#2: I got goosebumps too! Goosebumps and chills!! Every time!!
The first time i heard this song i cried like a baby even though i didn't understand a word. I didn't have to understand to feel the music. Then i heard the english version and cried like a baby again 😂
Hey Chris! Yeah it's so powerful, even without understanding the lyrics. Especially with this crowd singing along. Hope you're well mate. :)
@@ThomFoolery1 hey mate, all is well mostly thanks :) been struggling with sleep but that's 80% of the world so i can't complain 😂 i hope all is well over the sea :)
We played this song on my friends funeral. RIP👼
Sorry for your loss, Leo!
Sorry for your loss, but what a great send off.
😢😢🤘🤘
This made me cry, the first time I went to a concert with Sabaton were in 2003 and I've seen them I think more than 20 times. They always put up a Great show! I miss going to concerts sooo much, I'm gonna cry like a baby when I finally can go and see them again ❤️
Thanks for sharing Linda! That's awesome that you've seen them so many times. It's definitely going to feel emotional when we can all come together and do concerts like this again. 🙂❤🤘
Super :-) Great Reaction!!!
I do LOVE your pronunciation of "i"! :p
"I" in swedish has the pronunciation of long "e". :)
Just found your channel and you seem like a real cool and humble guy. You got yourself a sub from sweden!
Tack! That is so kind of you to say!😊 Thank you for subscribing! 😁🤘
@@ThomFoolery1 You're welcome mate. Keep up the good work! 🤘
Going through my family tree recently and I gotta wonder what my ancestors experienced during that war. Horrific doesnt even seem to describe it.
I look around and I see my home fade away
My time at home now feels far too short
Just a youth, barely a man when duty called me
If i get to see my home again, that I do not know
Amongst friends from my village, I went out to figtht
And the world burned
For war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who will mourn me?
So see me as
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never comes home
But who will miss me?
Went to fight for Sweden, was baptized in blood
Out there where death awaits, not heroism
In fields where kinsmen fall no song is heard
Challenging our destiny one more time
Far from home
Baptized and die in battle
And the world burned
For war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who will mourn me?
So see me as
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never comes home
But who will miss me?
And when my time runs out
Who cares then?
They fight on
Does a soldier get a worhty end?
To fall asleep
Pass away
And never wake up
For war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who will mourn me?
So see me as
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never comes home
But who will miss me?
Great band👍🏻👍🏻
Agreed! :D
I WAS THERE! EPIC!
Great reaction👏 this song is so powerful and touching🤘
Thank you! 🙂🤘
This is such a beautiful song! It gives me chills every time I hear it! think they are from Gothenburg, right? Fun fact, Floor Jansen is married to the drummer! Keep rockin’ it out! 🤘🏻❤️
It is truly a beautiful song though very sad. But they are from Falun, not Gothenburg.
Yeah, beautiful song indeed! Oh that's so cool! That is a serious power couple... or power metal couple! 🤘
SayaViking very sad!
Yes, I can never get through the whole song without tearing up a bit! 🙈
They're actually from my hometown of Falun and I've been lucky enough to meet all of the members (except the singer, he's too easily recognized nowadays) on multiple occasions, due to mutual friends. Really nice and polite guys! ☺️👍
I was there and it was fucking awesome.
They sure are amazing!
Now I want to hear a Sabaton song about raisins. :) FYI, I don't speak Swedish but I can sing along after all the times I've listened to this song over the past few years.
Haha! A whole album about fruit would still sound epic! That's awesome dude! Shows how good the song is. :)

By the way I really like your reaction to this song.
I was not in Göteborg but well the day after in Stockholm at Hovet with around 9500 people singing this very song. Epic.
Thank you Ewa! That must have been awesome! :)
@@ThomFoolery1 Yes, it was. I got goosebumps. 😀
Imagine that all the Nordic countries were to be united under ONE queen (independent states with their own parliaments much like the USA).
Queen Victoria of the North, long may she reign. Ruler of Sweden, Finland, Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania, Denmark, Norway and Iceland.
The Nordics never forget...
Winter is coming, God help whoever tries to hurt us!
Yeah, all of their songs from the Great Tour are filmed from the stage looking out into the crowd.
You should look up two latest Sabaton shows at Wacken, in 2019 and 2020. Each one of those is fantastic in it's own right.
The 2019 show was Sabaton's little too early 20th anniversary (actually in December) and Wacken's 30th anniversary. It was 2 hour show.
The 2020 show was a virtual show on a virtual stage in Wacken with virtual audience. This was played live virtual.
Both shows were filmed and mixed and streamed via magenta TV 360 of Germany. They have a show up for a year at their website.
The 2019 show you have to hunt for.
That 2 hour show is insanely good and I get goosebumps just thinking about it. .
That sounds great! I would love to find more of their live videos. Thanks! :)
Great reaction dude ! Cheers from Swedish Dave
Thank you, Swedish Dave! :D
Homefield....cant be beaten!!!
I was there. It was an Epic Time! ♥️
I can only imagine! 🤘
FYI......Drummer is married to Floor !
I heard! What a power-metal couple!
I feel privileged i was there
There's a version with english subs if you want to get the lyrics.
And if you want to know more about what the song is about here's the Sabaton History episode about the song: czcams.com/video/RT2FLNvzoPQ/video.html
Yes, Sabaton have their own history channel. ;)
My hometown,
I have a question very unrelated to the video. The last name "Pearson", is that an anglicised(?) form of the Swedish last name "Persson"? I am Swedish and happen to have the last name Persson. My curiousity gets the better of me sometimes :P
Hey Micke, I am not sure. My close family are all English but I may have Scandinavian roots. I need to do one of those ancestry tests haha 😄
A tips is to re watch it with subtitles. In from sweden and i can till its a emotiol song
You mest that Up like hell i am from Sweden but it was good
I do prefer Sabaton 2.0 over Sabaton 1.0, even though 1.0 is the band I learned to respect originally.
Jag ger mitt liv för mitt fosterland...
I give my life for my country...
Never seen swedes as patriotic. Probably because the last war we were involved in was a few years befor my time, 1718....
The last war was in 1814 when Sweden forced Norway in to a union.
The great northern war was between 1700 and 1721 but Sweden was involved in 11 wars after that. We lost Finland to Russia in the the Finnish war 1808-1809.
@@Tim_Nilsson Bra Tim att du korrigerar. Alldeles för många som inte kan vår historia.
Well, we aren't.. but in this context I'm seeing it more as defending the people you love; in that sense we do it a lot. :)
Another song that you could react from Powerwolf is Incense and Iron, it's amazing !
Thanks for the suggestion! I'll check this out. :)
a lifetime at war!
If you know swedish and what they sing a boute in this song it is kind of sad same with cliffs of gallipoli and The english version a lifetime of war
I also have a cactus light
Hey man love the vid. would be cool if you reacted to In Flames :)
How much did you understand about the lyrics? because you kind of nailed it with the "your someones husband or wife, or a friend to someone or a family member", in the song they sing "so see me as who I am: a husband, a friend, father and son, who will never return home again" :)
Hi there! I actually had subtitles when I watched it but used a different video for the playback and forgot to add subtitles. My bad haha. Really beautiful lyrics.
@@ThomFoolery1 ah i see, good shit anyway! Nice reaction to a nice performance!
"I've been told to turn the subtitles on", proceeds to not turn subtitles on :D
I did watch with subtitles, I just forgot to add them to this playback video, my mistake.
@@ThomFoolery1 :)
You remind me of swedish hockey player Melker Karlsson :)
hopefully covid doesn't fuck it up, but they have like a sweden tour next year, and fuck yeah im going, but it all depends on how this shit of a pandemic plays out..
Fingers crossed for you mate!
I was there
I was there :D
Where the subtitles
You need to react to livgardet
hmm... I like you. I don't like many people but you seem like a cool dude.
Thank you kindly! 😊
I really loved this video, followed!
It helps that you share my fathers name, and my last name :D Good one isn't it, Son of Per :D?
Thank you and thanks for the following! 😁🤘
You must do, dEMOTIONAL - ILLUSIONS. You won´t regret it.
"i" should be pronounced as "e".
😢 as always with this song
en livstid i krig, ''A lifetime in war''
or '' war of a lifetime''
Pärson. You must have swedish roots?
I'm not sure, I possibly have some Swedish heritage. That's maybe why I love Scandinavian bands so much haha

Welcome sweden and welcome ukrine same colur on flags 🇸🇪🇸🇪🇸🇪🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦🇺🇦
Typical Sweden, make a song of war, that totaly anti-glorifies the war, and point out how the war destroy/ruin the man (soldier)
Still Mainstream Media (Swedish) gave the album bad/mediocre score in 2012 when the album was released. Accused of romanticize the period.
Though really well received by the real Metal reviews and international press, and especially the fans. This song is anti-war but most of the album is more "neutral" like the their usual
stuff.
haha 13 ppl dont like sweden dont come to sweden then
😂😂
