- An old German sailor song made in 1914, which became very popular in the navy due to its patriotic lyrics. This video's purpose is to preserve history

When your voice is deeper than British ships at the bottom of the sea.
sure sure, just dont mention scapa flow to the germans lmao
@Car driver u cant rlly say that was a decisive victory on either side lol, if anything Britain won, sure we lost more but we still had more. We effectively crippled the pathetic kriegsmarine with a single strike of our once mighty navy.
@@henrywalker8287 "pathetic"

Anyway... as a german Citizen on the Coast... with roots in a maritime Family... Scapa Flow hurts. D: Right in the heart, even 100 Years after.
BUT the navy should not have been built in the first place.

German song: exists
CZcams: I charge you with Nazi
@battledabstudio With CZcams it doesn’t matter, anything related to Germany they see as being “Nazi”.
The sad thing is Nazi is a Acronym, lol.
Monarchism is much more based than Fascism or Naziism
I frickin hate CZcams for that
Now ask youself why, my friend^^' CZcams was imposed by the west^^' Of course everything that is german, just like me, is a nazi for them.
The old Imperial Navy flag of Germany looks badass
Not only naval from the entire military.
But today most Germans think it's naz!St because todays naz!s use it. :(
They even made a Republican version for the Reichsmarine Post WW1. If it was adopted I'm pretty sure it would still be in use today.

I am German , but this song remindes me of Hongkong 😅
In 1982 i lived as a kid with my father in HK. He was an Ingenieur. He invited three colleagues , which almost reached retirement. All three fought and survived the 2n ww.
He gave them „schnapps“ a lot and then they argued about the fight on the eastern front . My father gave them more „schnapps“ .. then he went to an old tape recorder and played exactly this song
Three old men, drunk , sang and did the „stechschritt“ through the Appartement in the 12th floor 😅😅
Next morning when my father went to work. The doors of the escalator open, and an English entered
He asked : „ did you hear them?“ , my father innocent „no,whom?“
„you know what ! First they did not leave us in peace, 2nd ww the did. not leave us in peace
And yesterday night the bloody Germans marched again!!“
My father .. sorry i am a good sleeper

Thank you dad for the memories, RIP.. ♥️

Everybody gangsta til the German navy pulls up
What did they do except get their asses handed to them by the Royal Navy?
why would anyone be afraid of the german navy? they got mollywhopped in both world wars
To be honest, they were intimidating in the earlier parts of both world wars. But of course, the Allies would catch up.

Why ? It still shows up in search.
@@seawolf7610 Every few years CZcams does a purge (or hides a video) of anything that might be considered Nazi propaganda even when it's just historical reality unless it's posted by a large historical channel. They really kicked it up a notch when the adpocalypse hit and went further when the age restricted stuff kicked in, in the last few years. But unless it really is neo-nazi propaganda the video will usually return to its previous state after a few months which is probably what happened here.
*tl'dr* - CZcams doing the censorship thing again using a bot algorithm that doesn't care about context.
This song is pure music to my Irish heart.

Wonderful song! At the end you hear the melody of my favorite German Imperial Navy Song, „Stolz Weht die Flagge Schwarz-Weiß-Rot (Unsere Marine)“. Definitely check that out!
The words where written in 1903 by Hermann Löns, famous German author.

Deutsches Kaiserreich
Matrosenlied
(Wir fahren gegen Engeland)
Text: Hermann Löns, 1910 Melodie: Georg Göhler, 1914
1. Heute wollen wir ein Liedlein singen,
Trinken wollen wir den kühlen Wein
Und die Gläser sollen dazu klingen,
Denn es muß, es muß geschieden sein.
Refrain:
Gib' mir deine Hand, deine weiße Hand,
Leb' wohl, mein Schatz, leb' wohl mein Schatz,
Leb' wohl, lebe wohl
Denn wir fahren, denn wir fahren,
Denn wir fahren gegen Engeland, Engeland.
2. Unsre Flagge und die wehet auf dem Maste,
Sie verkündet unsres Reiches Macht,
Denn wir wollen es nicht länger leiden,
Daß der Englischmann darüber lacht.
Refrain:
3. Kommt die Kunde, daß ich bin gefallen,
Daß ich schlafe in der Meeresflut,
Weine nicht um mich, mein Schatz, und denke:
Für das Vaterland da floß sein Blut.
Refrain:
Vor allem aber bekannt geworden im Zweiten Weltkrieg - Kein Kaiserreich, sondern "böse Nazis", aber auch deutsche Kriegsmarine...
Gott segne Engelland! Und Deutschland zugleich!

Germany: Yea we defeated the British Navy at Jutland, now lets return to port and never leave again... (Until it gets scuttled outside of Scapa Flow.)
So beautiful❤Thank you, the gentle and awesome German sailors❤❤We love you🇩🇪
My grandma used to tell me German soldiers sang this after marching through the Netherlands in 1940, so consider it an inter-generational experience listening to it.
For those who are interested what the last part of the song is, that's another Imperial German navy song called Stolz Weht Die Flagge Schwarz, Weiss, Rot.
and this song ended with the first stanza of "Die Flagge schwarz weiss rot!
Hi, I am an aspiring Russian poet, I write poetry of dubious quality). Your work of preserve the historical memory, the music of peoples resonates with me. I want to once again translate a new melody (which you have posted) into Russian in poetic form, but for complete happiness I do not have enough original photograph of two sailors, which is blocked by a map of Germany (1.17 timecode). Therefore, please, you can somehow find out where to find the original of this photo, thanks)
@Esquire same problem)
hi! sorry for answering on your question so much time after you questioned it, but im also intrigued by it's nature, as i searched everywhere for it, in german and english, editing the image, through yandex and google, and could not find it. have you done any progress since? thx
@@SudenKardashev I didn’t find it either. I just remade the song into verse, translated it into Russian, but after the current events I didn’t even begin to upload it anywhere. There is hope that someone will read our messages and tell the original, and then I will find inner peace.

i found it! i finally did it! i asked ingen himself for some help and he sent me. do you have a discord or something on which i may send you?

back from unlisted
This is now in game Hearts of Iron 4. When i play this i suddenly get planning speed +100% when planing invasion of England...
The song ends with part of the march "Unser Marine "
I want to go back and live in the good old days...
I swear i could remember hearing a newer version of this song in BBC's the battle for the Atlantic documentary
This was my grandms favourite song growing up during the war she listened to it often on the Record
How cool German language and voice are , I love both of them.
Bedankt!
People wrongly assume that this was more "NSDAP" rmusic from the 1940s like some of the other well known musical pieces. Same with the Koenigraetzer Marsch, which is actually an old Prussian composition from the 19th century.
Blame the Nazis for that association. Them using every and all "German" things was a deliberate attempt at propaganda, even the color of the party banner was deliberately done to evoke the glory of the past Reichs before it...
A pretty cool song, ngl.
the song was originally written and sung in 1914 by the German Navy saying goodbye to there Sweethearts. In 1939 it was re-recorded by Nazi Germany and you can see where the Third Reich added their own touches to it. Just some cool History Trivia for ya

My German teacher told me to listen to German music to help me learn the language.
Now I want to declare war on half the world.
lol
Yes if it's any comfort I must have learnt half my German sentence construction from imitating the speeches of Hitler. He did not talk with the volume of his orations ...that had been recently established. A lot of the style present in German newsreels has been deemed old fashioned and few Germans sound like that now.Just as no one is called Adolf Heinrich or Hermann.. Der Feind muss fuer jeden Angriff teuer bezahlen...
Ich lerne auch Deutsch
As a German i can say that whenever i listen to old German songs i also want to do that
Lol, when I was told to try listening to German music I listened to regular music. Dennis Dies Das comes to mind. I also enjoyed opera music like Der Freischütz.
It's quite ironic, the song talks heavily about a German solider going off to fight the English when really their High Seas Fleet remained in port for most of the war.
Only the battleships. Many cruisers, destroyers , submarines and even battle cruisers regularly fought skirmishes with the British fleet. One battle cruiser force even bombarded the town of Scarborough.
@@shivmalik9405 Indeed, but the battleships were the most important. The skirmishes were ultimately done to lure the Royal Navy out of its blockade of Germany, their best success of that strategy being at Jutland. But without the nerve to risk their navy again, the blockade remained. Instead of the glory of dying in battle with the British, it instead received the humiliation of being scuttled at Scapa Flow.
When the Germans fought British it was always a disaster for the British like at Jutland or Coronel. The British lost the naval war. Losing at least six dreadnoughts to combat or incompetence. It was only American intervention that saved the Entente from collapsing.
@@coatofarms4439 Id have to disagree. The blockade remained. That was the main Entente goal, blockade the Channel. The Germans failed to break it, so they lost. Period
@@thehetmanmapping1434 However the German goal was to sink vessels and continue the U-Boat campaign. The Germans wanted to break the Royal Navy through select engagements and attrition. They did succeed through this in sinking more ships than the British.

Yup. A world without at least some of the BS in the middle east, a world without a WWII or Holocaust, no Cold War or any of its proxy wars, no USSR, commie China, NK, DDR, etc. A much better world overall. So much BS traces back to the Allied victory in WWI

My Grandfathers was one of the Grey Wolfes. U775. Came back to tell .
This is sometimes still chanted against the British in places like Saarbruecken but I have heard British people confuse it with the Horst Wessel Lied and I am always intrigued by the Gregorian pun where the sailors sing Engel land ...did they mean it? I wonder also by the end of the Battle of Britain Germans ever thought of war dead in this songs terms. It's too heroic to be heard.
Idk how people can confuse the two, they don't even have similar melodies and Horst Wessel Lied is a far simpler and repetitive piece.
@@derpphil5400 Theres a quote from.Schiller Mit der Dummheit kaempfen Goetter selbst. vergebens.
The same crowd say Horst Wessel.Leid and.Liebstandarte and something called the Hitler Jungend Americans are often.hopeless with..German.Elvis only just makes it and where did .Wooden Heart come from ?
Suprisingly Nat Cole was brilliant at German.lyrics and Spanish too.The Germans liked him altogether Unvergesslich
People who criticise Nazi music often know very little German and even less about what the music actually said to the people.
I was looking some Iron Armenian post on CZcams about Bismarck in War Thunder when this dropped
Is this an actual recording? The only one recovered was the recording from 1939 arranged by Herms Niel.
Probably no. I find that a lot of these channels like to either fabricate songs or give their own versions of them. That is not to say that I don't enjoy them, but it's unlikely to be an historical recording.
This was sung in 1939, by Wilhelm Streinz
