EXPAND FOR LYRICS
In the gloom the gathering storm abates
In the ships gimlet eyes await
The call to arms to hammer at the gates
To blow them wide throw evil to its fate
All summers long the drills to build the machine
To turn men from flesh and blood to steel
From paper soldiers to bodies on the beach
From summer sands to Armageddon's reach
Overlord, your master not your God
The enemy coast dawning grey with scud
These wretched souls puking, shaking fear
To take a bullet for those who sent them here
The world's alight, the cliffs erupt in flame
No escape, remorseless shrapnel rains
Drowning men no chance for a warriors fate
A choking death, enter hell's gates
Sliding we go, only fear on our side
To the edge of the wire
And we rush with the tide
All the water is red
With the blood of the dead
Although I'm still alive, pray to God I survive
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
The rising dead, faces bloated torn
They are relieved, the living wait their turn
Your number's up, the bullet's got your name
You still go on, to hell and back again
Valhalla waits, valkyries rise and fall
The warrior tombs lie open for us all
A ghostly hand reaches through the veil
Blood and sand, we will prevail
Sliding we go, only fear on our side
To the edge of the wire
And we rush with the tide
Oh the water is red
With the blood of the dead
But I'm still alive, pray to God I survive
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
How long on this longest day
'Til we finally make it through
Anyone Play this Today on D-Days 80th anniversary.
Is a Real Metal Loving Patriot!!!
God Bless the U.S 🇺🇸
hell yes!!!
Every year I play it and post it on Socials for D-Day. Like a history lesson and tribute at the same time.
why not god bless all the allies
Also add Sabaton's Primo Victoria to that playlist
80 years since a brave group of human beings stood up to tyranny and said no. Thank you for our freedom. It wasn't free.
Too bad the current generation is too gutless to do the same.
When the music and the movie have a perfect match.
Both the song and the scene depict the exact same historical event, so yeah.
May all fallen souls of the longest day R.I.P. and thanks all those brave men for the liberation of Europe.
That was done by the Soviet Union.
When USA enter the war germany was more than one full year losing againts the soviets and was close to lose.
@@Pokesus stop already son. If not for US and UK ammo and equipment shipments Soviets would be fucked anyway. It was mutual achievement.
A debt that cannot be repaid
@@Pokesus da muss ich dir recht geben !!
@@Pokesus yep. Ready about Katyń x D and Smoleńsk. F u ck soviet union
80 Years to the greatest bravery of the 20th century.
Blood and sand, they did prevail.
Watched it for the first time when I just found Iron Maiden 14 years ago. I was 13 at that time. It was the start of my journey through metal and rock and music in general. Came across so many great genres and bands in the last 14 years. This song is still one of my favorites today. Still underrated tho.
I love how the song and the video sync with one another so well at 1:32, with the lyric "Enter hells gates" and showing the doors of the transport craft opening and the machine guns firing at the soliders. Very symbolic.
Bravest men to walk the earth.
One of the only times I saw multiple grown men cry, was when Saving Private Ryan hit theaters. That opening scene of Omaha Beach just hits hard.
Thank you US, England and Canada!!!!
France: Am I a joke to you?
The rest of the world: Yes....
You forget USA
And thanks to former USSR which had lost 27 million people during a war.
My father was at D day fought through the hedgerows , through St Lo , and got severely injured in Mets . this scene is breath taking to me .
Metz*
@@ArtilleryAffictionado1648My bad you are absolutely correct .
Still remember first time i heard of Normandy..i was a kid watching how proud at "Stand by me" movie the kid was saying "My father stormed the beach in Normandy!"
May they all rest in peace...
Heroes. All of them.
Que barbaridad de canción solo Iron Maiden hace una canción así como todas sus canciones con significado, letras bárbaras y musicalidad de manera sorprendente VIVA Iron Maiden
People forget what a gamble this mission was. We had to fool the Germans and keep them guessing where we were going to strike fortress Europe. It could’ve easily gone sideways, but thank God, it didn’t. Our eternal gratitude to those who gave everything to bring down the greatest evil our world has ever known.
In Tears as I watched This Massacre at the landing of the Allied Forces during WW2.
May their souls RIP
Excelente música. Álbum injustiçado.
I remember watching this video 8 years ago
el mejor video 240p de todo TH-cam
In fact 😂
Beautiful song and tribute
13 hours in office and i m still going viva la capitalism, my longest day, its nothink compares to our grandfathers who fought Nazis
Remember, not all of us were bad nazis
@@goobthewarden9192 There were surely some with more empathy...
They fought it. But now IT raised again. For example in Latvia. This week there was SS Division March on the streets of Riga and Narva. WTF, and there is american brave guys - they help this fucking country with guns and took Latvia in NATO... FUCKING ALLIES... THEY TRAITED THEIR GRANDFATHERS WHO DIED IN D-DAY... FUCK BIDEN, FUCK NAZIS NATO
The Greatest Generation 🙏
I remember watching this with my dad when i was younger damn time flies
Awesome!
Due Maiden I have known a lot of history, literature and who knows how much more. For example, due Maiden I discovered Lord of the Flies by William Golding. Well, I watched first the film of 90's and then, the novel.
Saw this clap as a kid on elementary school with friends. Djesse tim etc. Teacher was like wtf is wrong with these kids,.
Whoever made this great job these are HeROS!
This song depresses me for another reason than everyone else’s. This song makes me think of the day me and my ex broke up and it makes me upset to where I want to cry
This isn’t about you
@@hban3040 tfym

Doo gooooddd mowie 👍
When kids from us, uk, Canada, and australia saved the free world.
By the time the german army was already decimated by the red army. So, of course, allied troops were very brave on D-day, but no, they didn't play a big role.
@@sergiosolano6773 How do you figure? Yes, Soviet forces and people suffered the heaviest casualties and subsequently inflicted heavy casualties on Nazi forces. But that fighting was mainly in Russia and the Eastern European countries. I'm not denying Russias success in the war, but their involvement didn't help on the Western European front as much. Can we admit it was definitely a joint effort?
Lets also not forget that Soviets were in alliance with the Nazis at the start of the war when they were attempting to split up Poland and the nearby countries amongst themselves. It was the Nazis betrayal and invasion of the USSR that brought the Soviets to the Allies.
@@matthewwhite3967 You don't have to figure out anything, numbers speak for themselves, the soviets caused 95% of the german casualties. Germany and The Soviet Union were not allies, they signed a non agression pact called Molotov-Ribbentrop, thats completely different.
@@sergiosolano6773 Yeah, they signed a "non-aggression treaty" with the Nazi's and then proceeded to invade Poland with them in 1939. But, no, they weren't "allies" were they? They just invaded the same country and turned a blind eye to them. And they also invaded Finland at the same time. Russia then doesn't seem so different from Russia now, when you look at their history.
But that's not the point anyway. You're playing a numbers game here. I'm not denying the Soviets killed more Nazi's and paid a higher toll than the other allies. But that's not what won the war alone. The bulk of the USSR's involvement was on the Eastern front, fighting in the own territory and preventing a successful takeover of Russia. Yes, they should be commended for that. But you're undermining the rest of the Allies involvement by suggesting that D-Day and the liberation of France wasn't directly involved with the eventual blockade of Berlin and the fall of Nazi Germany. Sheer numbers alone aren't the determining factor in a war fought on several fronts, such as WW2.
So yes, lets not undermine Russias involvement, but don't act like they single handedly won the war themselves. That's revisionist history at best and just plain ignorance at worst.
@@matthewwhite3967 Sorry for My English, is not my main language.
