    The greatness from this song comes from the fact that it can be applied to any war in history, not just the 30 year war. It can be applied to any individual that has ever had to leave their home for a war they didn't start. We often get caught up in the statistics and forget the individuals.

      Not only those who needs to leave their own homes. But all humans who have been through something like this.
      WE ALL should try to treat each others with the same respect as we want ourselves.
      But It may be hard.

      @@pangling2217 you don't understand war, it hits different, perhaps you don't trully know what war is?
      _You've been born in this world, your in a happy family, you love each other, you play with your father, you both have a great time, and then you stare at the lowering sun, time passes quickly, you have a job, your living a peaceful life, you and your father always talk together, thinking of all the memories, and then war starts, you and your father will get drafted to war, when the news have reached your family, your parents shed in tears, and when you learn about it, you stop what you were doing, your mind leaves your body, and your just thinking "is this really happening? My peaceful life, my family, all at risk of ceasing to exist." Before you and and your father leave home, you two stare at your mother, your mother that you have never seen be this sad, and then leave, knowing theres a chance you can never feel the comfort of a peaceful life ever again, knowing this could be the end, as you travel, you tear up, about the memories you've had, you've been emotional remembering them, but it hits harder knowing that maybe you won't have more, your father cheers you up, making jokes and talking about the funny memories, it lightens your mood, time passes, you've been sent to the battle fields for the first time after training, you look at your father hoping you both survive, time passes once more and you now know what war is, it isn't a source of glory, glory only comes to those who faught bravely for their home and family, as the general makes the call, the battle has begun, machine guns and artillery have started doing their purpose, hundreds, maybe even thousands, have fallen, you look at their bodies and think, "they had memories too..." you charge fiercely for your comrades deaths and for your home and loved ones, you see your father get shot, you run to him, you fall beside him, you remember everything you did with your father, he looks at you and says "I'm glad you were my son" and his eyes close, you don't hear him breathing anymore, you shed tears, you stand up and fight, but like everyone else, your story ends, you fall down, your entire life flashes within your eyes, and you fall asleep, never to wake again, the battle wasn't a major one, hence why barely anyone remembers, you have been forgotten, everything that happend to you, gone._

    The song is incredible, and hits so hard.. even hits harder when you understand the words. I'm Danish and our language is somewhat similar to Swedish, so we understand each other fairly good. Hearing him sing in his native language really adds to the impact. You can hear the pride and soul in his voice.. so powerful!

      @@danielnystrom7310 Personally I wouldn't say the swedish version hits more, just differently. Personally I like the english version a little better. The swedish version is from the view of a single person and while that does make it more relatable it kinda sells short just how pointless and crazy this while war was. The english version is less "relatable" but it does a better job at portraying just how insane this really was. A lifetime of war doesn't really come across in a song about one person going to war and then maybe returning or maybe not. It makes you feel for that one person but the english version portrays the feeling of "a lifetime of war" better when it's about all the people who died and fought and just how many of these people there were, "has man gone insane" really hits me so much more when they say "Three decades of war". I'm 30 now, and there really is no question that I can ask except "Has man gone insane" when I think about how if I had been born on day 1 of that war, the war would have ended only now. 30 years is just such an incredibly long time, and I don't think the swedish version really portrays that quite as well as the english version.

    This song just simply bridges countries, languages and cultures because the feeling and passion from it stems from something that is the same for everyone.

    A Lifetime of War, the English version, tells about the war from the broader perspective.
    Please do a Sabaton History reaction. Alvin York (82nd All the Way) or Simo Häyhä (White Death) are great, borderline unbelievable stories.

    In most European countries there were rich landowners who reigned over the peasants. But Sweden always consisted of free farmers. If there was a war, every village equipped one man who was willing to follow the king and fight. They equipped him with armory, weapons and sometimes even a horse. While he was away the village supported his family.

It truly was a lifetime of war. You should definitely check out the english version of this song, it is more from a perspective of overall population, civilians and the madness of it all. This one was more from a perspective of individual soldier.

    The song is from the album Carolus Rex from 2012. The album came in two versions a version with english lyrics and another version with Swedish lyrics the songs were the same but the lyrics were in different language.

    It's interesting that they have this same music in English, but while the Swedish version talk about a soldier that spent his whole life moving from place to place in a foreign land fighting, not knowing when to return home and what would they find.
    The song in english is from the other perspective, someone living in the areas where the war was, seeing it changing hands, armies passing etc.
    It is very interesting how both versions are complementary to each other.

But then when this live music video came out something broke in me, I can barely listen to this without tearing up for some reason and I don't know if it's just because of the video itself or a combination of the video,song and just how the world has kinda changed since I first heard it almost 10 years ago.

    In a way, this is the story of every individual soldier in every war. Instead of being a father or son, they are a casualty to never return home. Metaphorically it also fit with all soldiers who return but scared either with PTSD or with limbs torn apart.
    In the end it is not their war, but that point comes across in the English version.

    To live one more day
    Through decades of war?
    It spreads like disease

    A lesser-known fact, since you brought up logistics and sanitation: when "Baron" von Steuben joined the Revolutionary Army during the American Revolution, he had to teach them a lot about logistics, including sanitation. Sure, he taught close-order drill and tactics too, but Washington's army desperately needed things even more basic than that.

    Some of the kids that were conscripted, were as young as 13. Usually poor orphans. So who would mourn for them? Who would miss them? No one, because they were bred as cannon fodder. Many were born in the field, born and died in battle. So literally a life time of war (also expected lifespan at that point in time was about 25 years). All for religion. Protestant vs catholic. No side willing to back down.

      If the war is fought on your land the soldiers tend to get younger. WW II the youngest (6) and the oldest (86) soldiers were both Russian. The war dropped in on the 6 year old when the Germans annihilated his village and only he escaped into the woods. For 30 years the war raged over Europe from Spain to Sweden and the rich and powerful have a vision of it but the soldier just fights and survives or dies.

The alliance of Catholic France with the Protestant German princes kind of puts that to question. And the Catholic Spain fighting Catholic France who fought with the northern Protestant Germans because they hated the Hapsburgs on principle. Greed and power had more to do with it than religion.

    Counting only the killed and wounded (most would die in captivity) swedes during the last battle versus Russia. (Battle of Poltava) you could fill up that very stadium that they're playing at. And each one of them had a family, a best friend, a childhood crush, dreams and fear.

    The Thirty Years war was mostly begun by German princes wanting freedom from the Hapsburgs in control of the Holy Roman Empire. Supposedly it was about Protestant versus Catholic but religion went out the window with the first battle. Greed and power became the reasons to continue among the leaders.

    From a veteran's perspective the reason we fight is not "What about me?" We are fighting to protect our families and country. There is some concern about our own survival, but primarily because it means, if we fall we will not be able to continue the good fight.

    It's worse than that. They don't call it the 30 Year War for nothing. Imagine if war broke out and you got drafted, fought and died, and your wife had to raise your kids by herself, only for them to get drafted when they came of age and die in the same war that claimed their father. A husband and friend, father and son, that never came home. Those could all refer to one person, but it also works if they're all different people in the same person's life, someone who lost their husband, their father, their sons, and their friends, all claimed by a Lifetime of War.
