1:51 “Du tronar på minnen från fornstora dar” is a lyric from the Swedish National anthem. And it doesn’t mean, “Do you believe the stories from our grandfather?” But instead, “You are enthroned by great memories of the olden days,” referring to the former glory of the Swedish Empire.
The Dalecarlians were the thoughest guerilla fighters in Europe back then. There are stories from German Landsknechte and Danish soldiers about how scared they were to even patrol Swedish forests, because you never knew when you were going to get a crossbow bolt between the eyes
I love metal just as much as the next person if culture. But every once in a while, you find a song that just moves you somehow. Doesn't need to be explained. This is one of those songs for me. It makes me proud to be Swedish. And I'm not Swedish. But I work for a Swedish company and I have some Ikea stuff, so that counts, right?
I think the story with the Swedish version is that similarity to Sabaton's Carolus Rex album is that the Swedish version is meant to act as a first-hand account of the event in question
Nope. It's about Sweden war of independence from the kalmar union (more specifically the danes) and the knights from "dalarna" that came to help king Gustav Vasa. Sabaton very briefly touched this topic on this in "livgardet" as the first few men that joined Gustav Vasa were the first members of livgardet, referenced in the lyric "traced their roots from 16 strong, by their king where they belong"
@@rr_gaming4954 As stated, first hand account of event in question, I'm aware it's meant to be Swedish War of Independence, but this comment was initially written as a counter-point to the idea of the song being about a hockey team.
This song with the Swedish text are about the best hockeyteam in the world. It has references to the the history but still Leksands If rules in this song. The original english text is about the refferences above.

Not really. It's about the "darlänningar" fighting for their own freedom to not get occupied by finnish people back those days. They sing "Nobody who's blue and white can understand" which refrences the finnish people. Long story short. They mainly were fighting for their self freedom at that point and keep a strongpoint between sweden and finland, which nowadays is lappland.
Thanks for providing the translation man, it helps with my swedish. Anyways, can you provide the translation for the description too? And of course, more videos of this kind are most definitely welcome!
@@DukeofTxtspeak consequence.net/2021/04/former-sabaton-civil-war-guitarist-rikard-sunden-convicted-child-molestation-pornography/ Disgusting. Maybe the band removed his songs so he won't get any revenue. I don't think they made any official comments
idk why but this song is remowed from spotify and is been a hell to find it again
thx Duke you the true hero
The same for me, but I can't hear the audio. The entire video is silent for me.
I think because of the rickard sunden case.
Only Sabaton and Civil War could make from a simple person a Swedish patriot
Aka Arabland patriot
@@appleratpipe Go fuck yourself
Haha, for sure. But this song is essentially about ice hockey... so....
or non swedish :)
Sabaton? Nooooo

Thank you, if I ever need to reupload this I will correct that

Dalarna patriotism increased by 100%, and I'm not even from Dalarna.
Leksands if💙🤍

I am not Swedish nor interested in hockey, seems this is a reference that I missed.
As a Swede i find that extremely unlikely, but i'd like to hear your reasoning

@@woxics What? That's not even remotely true.
Själv är jag Djurgårdare, men min far var från Krylbo och höll på Leksands IF. Denna är en grymt bra låt

Wait, actually I went through all your other videos and, let's put it this way, I'm gonna be busy for couple of days
and you got a sub from me too of course
@@mikheilv The description is just a google translated version of the one from the English version of this song, Also available on my channel.
@@DukeofTxtspeak ok man thanks
Trodde denna låt handlade om Leksands IF
det gör den, iallafall den svenska versionen
@@aimb6344 ja det var det jag tänkte
Jag är inbiten FBK supporter men denna låter är helt otroligt bra.
Is this Nils Patrik Johansson?
Yes.
He has absolutely awesome voice
No this is patrick
wait a minute

The English version has different lyrics. Is there a reason why?
According to the people here, this one is actually about a Hockey team.
Not sure, maybe civil war just wanted to switch it up a bit.
Varför har den här låten försvunnit från Spotify?
I'm not sure.
Copyright problems probably
Did they remove this song from spotify????
Yes. I just saw that too.
@@xaufojjj damn, do you think it was because of that guitar player who got jailed??
@@villumsonne1107 I belive so..
Ooh...
Could you elaborate on this? I wasn't aware of such a thing happening.
