Movies often portray Sir Winston’s speeches as bombastic and emphatic, but in reality his tone was reserved and deliberate. Gary Oldman did a fantastic Churchill, but he, like many others before him, fell into the trap of delivering a Churchill speech with vigor and shouting. In reality, Winston’s words spoke for themselves, they rode in on a wave of pure prose, not of emphatic noise. That was the true brilliance of his tongue.
I humbly submit my contrary view. I believe that what we are used to hearing are recordings done years after the initial delivery to Parliament. I have been led to believe that the original submissions were more vivacious than the later recordings.
Some recordings we have were made 9 years after he made the speeches, he obviously wouldn’t feel or give the speech in the same manner as if the enemy was days away from taking the island.
A speech which still can drive audience to tears almost 8 decades after it was delivered. A true statesman both GB and the world should be proud to have had.
Also drove millions of Indians to tears that a lot of British do not know .....lots of news were hard to come by those days ... thousands if indian soldiers also lost their lives for the British ....all forgotten so quickly ....
Any student of public speaking, debating or seeking a career in the law should study the techniques of Sir Winston Churchill's speeches. There is much to learn. Notice how Churchill's journalism training forms the backbone of all his speeches. I shall recommend this speech to all NZIBS students and graduates. Brian Morris, Principal.
THANK YOU graceful charming MAN of iNFiNiTe WiSDOM. WINSTON CHURCHILL = iLLUMiNATiON (The Ancient Technique of the WRiTTEN and SPOKEN WORD). That's 3 "i" or 3rd EYE 666, which is the TRUE HOLY TRINITY. also see 369 NIKOLA TELSA. The Number of the BEAST = BEAST MODE. (A MAN OF POWER). also see GHOST RIDER MYTH, PHOENIX MYTH, JESUS MYTH, BACK TO BLACK, DUMBLEDORE etc etc etc. 33
What would I have done if I lived in Germany back then and knew or heard of the Concentration Camps, would I have spoken out knowing I could be killed. Now as far as Germany standing up to Hitler, I am not sure most did, there was a weakness in the people, but then that purposelessness became strength, became stronger by following someone as captivating as Hitler, inspired by his voice, his Speeches, Winston was different, not crazy, well, may he drank too much, loved women too much, he was flawed, ok...... but he knew that there was only one way out and that was Onward, Straight Ahead, there was no looking back, just Marching onward and believing in, hoping for Victory! Never, Never, Never Give Up! And I think when Hitler heard his voice, his speeches, he may have been taken aback, someone was actually standing up to him where so many had folded like a house of cards. We need great men and women today, strong warriors as the battle wages on!
@@roelkomduur8073 We fought the Communists for a further 45 years after the war. While the Germans were threatening to invade the UK, Hitler was allied with Stalin. Russian oil was fueling the Luftwaffe. Fuck the USSR.
@@Juho999 Like I said, when Germany was actually trying to invade the UK, Russia was a nazi ally and supplying the Germans with raw materials.

Juho Mannela without the USSR Supplying Germany they wouldn’t even have enough oil for their tanks or even their LuftWaffe! Fuck the USSR and Communism
@Daniel Clark Clark ok ok its nice to hear that information because i learn from people like you instead of just search through internet and has many details. Thx sir have a nice day 🙂👌
As a 64 year old Englishman born in 1957, I was not born until after World War 2. But my parents lived through the war and as children we were told by our parents and taught in school about the War and in particular Winston Churchill's part. His speeches to the nation and stoicism were very widely regarded as responsible for keeping the moral of this country up when it was on its knees. It saddens me that this hero is not fully appreciated by most of the millennial generations. That most of them don't realise that they owe their freedom to Winston Churchill and that generation who gave their lives . A time when freedom meant more than safety.
Its easy to keep up the moral bein english during the war. Being bombed but not being invaded as other european nations had to endure. Never suffering an invasion such as Poland
And, every year, as I hear the repeated speeches of Winston, I smile inwardly, as Day of Remembrance approaches, for he is carried in the hearts of the women & men, that have fought for our Nation...I'M NY Toms very British future wife, America/British, Veteran, Middle East & Continent of Africa
Only wicked people would give a thumbs-down to this speech. He was a great man, a great mind, and a great command of the glories of the English language.
Reading William Manchester's bio on Churchill and I have just reached this section of the third volume. I am more than a little grateful that this is available for all of us to hear.
Man of the Century. The Good Lord in his wisdom saw fit to place this man at the crossroads of history and he played his part magnificently. No man in the world at the time was better fitted for the role he was given. Every person in the world breathing free air owes a deep debt of gratitude to Lord Churchill and the entire British nation.
that fatso,called churchill,was a bloodthirsty r@cist,zi@nist rabid d@g that killed tens of millions of innocent people and the main responsible for ww2
Funny enough that he is again needed now ....the rise of the far right in Europe and UK ... the destruction of Syria and now Ukraine ...the absolute impotence of USA ...the rise of the tyrannical dragon That man is needed again nowadays frankly since 2010
Winston Churchill is one of the finest renegades humanity has ever produced. I can only wish we had many like him in the entire world, but particularly in the USA.
+Daniel Clark Clark And if Osama Bin Laden hadn't terrorised America and some other western countries,then Middle Eastern people would've been suffering even more today. See how that sounds?
The voice is not Churchill's. The speech was originally delivered by Churchill in the House of Commons which, at that time, was not wired for sound recording. Churchill privately recorded several of his war time speeches after the war for posterity at his Chartwell home in Kent. Radio actor Norman Shelley's voice was used to broadcast some of Churchill's speeches - including 'We shall fight them on the beaches' and "Blood, Toil, Tears and Sweat", Shelley would take his own false teeth out for the part. At the height of the war the British Council had additionally asked Shelley to impersonate Churchill for broadcasts in America. In 1990 an American speech research group called Sensimetrics tested 20 of the speeches that Decca and EMI sell under Churchill's name. The speech patterns on three recordings were found to be different. They were the disputed speeches originally made in Parliament in 1940: the Dunkirk speech, the 'Finest Hour' speech, and the one made on 13 May, when Churchill promised 'blood, toil, tears and sweat'.
Ed, well said. Winston Churchill was truly one of the most consequential figures of the 20th century. His courage and leadership were instrumental in the allies triumph against the forces of evil that sought to conquer and enslave all freedom loving people.
what about his ally Stalin? He made him strong. Churchill war not far-sighted enough. A big mouth. Nothing heroic about him. He was like he looked. By the way Hitler, too. Both were without any vision for the future. Hitler destructive and narrow-minded
viola229 you are avoiding the point and you obviously don't understand how how he was brought to power Churchill called into power because he was the only figure that England saw as warmongery enough to get us through the war. War is a cruel place and do we needed somebody who would do cruel things but Churchill got us through the war he was not brought to power to look forward he was brought into power because he was a bully in some ways and would do anything in his power so save democracy no matter what people thought of him for it . He was not brought to power to look into the future he was there for the war and only that and he did is job very well.
I'm like ricky Gervais. Churchill is one of my heroes. Born Lancashire, emigrated to the USA at three. My father was english, mother American. Just like churchill. I'm such a nerd I've memorized some of churchill's speeches and have read his biographies. What courage, what leadership that man had to stand alone in parliament knowing the task at hand in stead of choosing terms with hitler and allowing a swastika to fly over Buckingham palace.
if you want the background of this speech then you must read his first book on ww2 , "the gathering storm " and "blood toil tears and sweat" by john lukacs. did sir winston have his little character traits that some people loathed ? YES ! ....BUT there was NO ONE associated with british government that could have done what he did to pull things together for england and the world AT THAT TIME.
Pamela Jaussi true because for the first time in the British empires history it was fully united under one cause as they realised England was not fighting for imperial glory but to save its culture, democracy, free trade and everything it had spent 300 years building. In someways Churchill made one of the biggest sacrifices ever made in history because what country as ever given up all the territory it owned to give the world something good (and no other country before that time has given up everything it owned for the good of other nations even enemy's)
Thank you churchilll and more importantly thank you british people You stood up against tyranny when nobody was willing to. I will always be grateful for the opportunities you and your grandfathers provided for me ..... 80 yeaes later and brexit drama be dammed.... From the bottom of my heart THANK YOU
Those who forget the past are doomed to repeat never has their been a strength of such character been needed more at this time and of course then to lead and unite not just one nation but all who fought the tehorney of such ungodly evil in the world as we knew it then to differing battles now. Sir Winston Churchill I tip my hat to you good sir
He could see what was happening years before and warned about it repeatedly. For this he was demonized. He was entirely correct. An eccentric and a genius.
Thank you for posting this, and for posting the text of the speech as worded when he delivered it in the Commons. I wonder why he changed some of the words of the speech when he made this recording of it.
I give you Norway, those ceragoes people I give Norway my Love from Scotland, you gave your lives from a common cause and my friends I give for ever more my love. Norway will never die as long as Scotland will Prevail, God Bless those who gave their lives for freedom. Norway I love you. xxxxxx

Before the days of DNA studies my wife did a genealogy study of her family and turns out she is related to Churchill through his mother who was an american how bout dat.
With all thats going on in ukriane i really needed to hear this right now so inspiring. We all owe this man our freedom sad to think our goverments become corrupt and a joke
So I'm here from the Peppa Pig Borris Johnson speech. Someone in the comments had referenced this speech comparing the competence of the two PMs. After hearing this speech, I think I will have to say , point taken.
Thank you for the uploading. Perhaps you can tell me: as far as I know, at the time in Parliament there wasn't equipment for recording speeches. This partly explains why the recordings of the other 2 famous speeches ("Their finest hour" and "We shall fight on the beaches") were done, not by WC himself, but rather by Norman Shelley, the best impersonator of Churchill's voice, at the time. So my question: is it also Norman Shelley's voice that we hear in this recording?... Shared on Google+
“You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: Victory. Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, Victory however long and hard the road may be, for without victory, there is no survival.” 4:12
Some of our corporate managers and politicians, who consider themselves leaders, should take an example on how to motivate people for whom they are responsible.
Churchill was a fantastic war leader, but as a child growing up in the fifties in the north east of England we used to boo him when he appeared on the news reels at the local cinema we cheered when Eisenhower made a appearance, it was many years later that I found out why we treated him with scorn, his treatment of the coal miners in Wales when they were on strike a last resort i might add to get better conditions and to curtail the amount of fatalities that were occurring to our brother coal miners, get the rats back down their holes was his answer to settling their grievances, that response from a Tory would not surprise the Labour party voting Welshmen, but if compassion had been added to his long list of attributes maybe just maybe those kids sitting on the wooden benches at the local flea pit would have heralded his appearance on the screen with cheers instead of jeers.
A nation in despair, weakened by war, defeated Lost their pride in Versailles A former prisoner, with a vision or a grand delusion Rise to power in the Reich
You all can harp and criticize Churchill all you want. He inherited a government that had appeased and capitulated at every turn for 20 years. Then when the war was won he was sacked by the very people he saved. A tragic hero will never receive his true accolades.
churchill es un ejemplo para los politicos de todos los paises. Aprendan de el, que no prometia nada mas que esfuerzo, trabajo, y sufrimiento, nada de palabras vacias, por eso inspira confianza,,,,
Winston Churchhill stood up, publicly to tyranny. He was not afraid to say what needed to be said and he said it, he said it in the face of great odds stacked against him and the British Empire. But he stood strong and never gave up, he decided freedom whatever the cost was worth fighting for. If we do not develop that sort of back bone, and if we are not prepared to stand up for our Rights and Freedoms, where ever you are in the world, you will loose them, make no mistake and you will live in tyranny and regret. That day will come.
While Switzerland was just thinking to make chocolate, while the whole mainland was surrending to Hitler's brute force (Italy too, with the worst choice made by Mussolini due to the isolationism after the Ethiopian war), while USSR's only move was the aggression to Finland, men like Churchill and Roosevelt decided to carry on the battle for the principles humans fought for and were fading, defended the principles of our society, of western society
Marco Boesso Roosevelt did not do anything it was all Churchill and the English people the Americans sat on there mainland why England was bombed into e group and still beat the Luftwaffe what did Roosevelt do, keep everyone in America with no intention of joining the war until Japan forced them to and when they did they attacked a few islands until Jewish and British scientists told them how to make the A bomb because Britain did not have the industry to produce it however if england had not been bombed we would of made the a bomb first.
Знову слухаю цю промову і думаю про те, наскільки схожими є ситуації тоді а Британії і зараз в Україні Великий і сильний ворог, мало зброї і ресурсів, опора на велику але недостатню допомогу союзників.. біль втрат.. бомбардування міст.. і розуміння того, що це війна за саме існування нашої держави і того, у що ми віримо..
Britain and so many countries were so... suprisingly... so very unprepared... So dastardly exposed.. that I still feel today... how could it be... that there must have been... what only they know.. so many questions later.. and unanswered... as we remain... in the abyss...

He spoke with a calm resolution that must have inspired the country at the time. It certainly inspires me today. What a generation they were.
Some recordings we have were made 9 years after he made the speeches, he obviously wouldn’t feel or give the speech in the same manner as if the enemy was days away from taking the island.
100% agree
True. Winnie had to shout to be heard; Parliament didn't have sound systems then.
“He mobilized the English language, and sent it into battle”. John Kennedy.
Not-so-fun fact: Churchill outlived Kennedy.
So does #Blass Hollingsworth, below, with his offensive use of "literally."
Kennedy's father did not like Churchill lol
My mother remembered listening to Mr. Churchill's speech on the oversees radio broadcast.
A speech which still can drive audience to tears almost 8 decades after it was delivered. A true statesman both GB and the world should be proud to have had.
Churchill was bribed to destroy Europe and the British Empire.
Also drove millions of Indians to tears that a lot of British do not know .....lots of news were hard to come by those days ... thousands if indian soldiers also lost their lives for the British ....all forgotten so quickly ....

I fear all that was fought for, and won, is disappearing. Fascism is re-emerging, more reason to remember these words.
So I'm here from the Peppa Pig Borris Johnson speech. Someone in the comments had referenced this speech comparing the competence of the two PMs. After hearing this speech, I think I will have to say , point taken.
Goosebumps!
Wow! I’ve never thought of it that way honestly…

Thank you for the uploading. Perhaps you can tell me: as far as I know, at the time in Parliament there wasn't equipment for recording speeches. This partly explains why the recordings of the other 2 famous speeches ("Their finest hour" and "We shall fight on the beaches") were done, not by WC himself, but rather by Norman Shelley, the best impersonator of Churchill's voice, at the time. So my question: is it also Norman Shelley's voice that we hear in this recording?... Shared on Google+

“You ask, what is our aim? I can answer in one word: Victory. Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, Victory however long and hard the road may be, for without victory, there is no survival.” 4:12
so word of wisdom; full of strength against tyrrany, fumar matar
France loves you Winston, you true legend

The greatest Briton of the 20th century -> Sir Winston Churchill
Some of our corporate managers and politicians, who consider themselves leaders, should take an example on how to motivate people for whom they are responsible.
1:39 :I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, sweat and tears."
Churchill was a fantastic war leader, but as a child growing up in the fifties in the north east of England we used to boo him when he appeared on the news reels at the local cinema we cheered when Eisenhower made a appearance, it was many years later that I found out why we treated him with scorn, his treatment of the coal miners in Wales when they were on strike a last resort i might add to get better conditions and to curtail the amount of fatalities that were occurring to our brother coal miners, get the rats back down their holes was his answer to settling their grievances, that response from a Tory would not surprise the Labour party voting Welshmen, but if compassion had been added to his long list of attributes maybe just maybe those kids sitting on the wooden benches at the local flea pit would have heralded his appearance on the screen with cheers instead of jeers.
A nation in despair, weakened by war, defeated
Lost their pride in Versailles
A former prisoner, with a vision or a grand delusion
Rise to power in the Reich
You all can harp and criticize Churchill all you want. He inherited a government that had appeased and capitulated at every turn for 20 years. Then when the war was won he was sacked by the very people he saved. A tragic hero will never receive his true accolades.
विजय का एक ही आधार पहले खुद विश्वास करो हम जीतेंगे
churchill es un ejemplo para los politicos de todos los paises. Aprendan de el, que no prometia nada mas que esfuerzo, trabajo, y sufrimiento, nada de palabras vacias, por eso inspira confianza,,,,
3:27 This is the kind of leader South Korea needs right now.
Winston Churchhill stood up, publicly to tyranny. He was not afraid to say what needed to be said and he said it, he said it in the face of great odds stacked against him and the British Empire. But he stood strong and never gave up, he decided freedom whatever the cost was worth fighting for. If we do not develop that sort of back bone, and if we are not prepared to stand up for our Rights and Freedoms, where ever you are in the world, you will loose them, make no mistake and you will live in tyranny and regret. That day will come.
One of the greatest Orators of the Human Race.
he understood the moment in history and spoke the truth.
While Switzerland was just thinking to make chocolate, while the whole mainland was surrending to Hitler's brute force (Italy too, with the worst choice made by Mussolini due to the isolationism after the Ethiopian war), while USSR's only move was the aggression to Finland, men like Churchill and Roosevelt decided to carry on the battle for the principles humans fought for and were fading, defended the principles of our society, of western society
Nice to read a sensible comment.
Marco Boesso i`m swiss british and i AGREE
+Marco Boesso Hate to be that guy, but USA did not entered the war until Desember the 11th 1941.
Marco Boesso Roosevelt did not do anything it was all Churchill and the English people the Americans sat on there mainland why England was bombed into e group and still beat the Luftwaffe what did Roosevelt do, keep everyone in America with no intention of joining the war until Japan forced them to and when they did they attacked a few islands until Jewish and British scientists told them how to make the A bomb because Britain did not have the industry to produce it however if england had not been bombed we would of made the a bomb first.
If your comment is meant sarcastically, I second it thoroughly.
Saved the world on his own for a time KBO
Greatest Leader of all time.
He was a gentleman and a soldier.
Знову слухаю цю промову і думаю про те, наскільки схожими є ситуації тоді а Британії і зараз в Україні
Великий і сильний ворог, мало зброї і ресурсів, опора на велику але недостатню допомогу союзників.. біль втрат.. бомбардування міст.. і розуміння того, що це війна за саме існування нашої держави і того, у що ми віримо..
he s amazing
From India ,Respect to this man .
Sir Winston Churchill was The Greatest British Leader we ever had. God Bless him 🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
Who are ennemies ans what is the ultimate goal please ?
Britain and so many countries were so... suprisingly... so very unprepared... So dastardly exposed.. that I still feel today... how could it be... that there must have been... what only they know.. so many questions later.. and unanswered... as we remain... in the abyss...
