Forgot to mention it in the video, but just so nobody thinks I forgot:
HaNnEs VaN dAhL iS mArRiEd To FlOoR jAnSeN
Thanks, nearly forgot about that...........
Where is Empuu's EV-1? HAHA!
No no, you're thinking of Robban Bäck
I was joking when I said you should do this, but I find it hilarious that you actually did!
😂😂😂
When you spend so much on pyro that you can`t afford security.
Sabaton: No problem, we`ll just put barbed wire and flamethrowers in front of the crowd.
Hahahahaha
Actually there's security but you have to stand x meters away due to the pyro lmao. I work regularly at their own festival as security so I can tell you from experience 😂
But at least it's never cold
@@fardiad as Scandinavians, they'll probably need some extra heating onstage
I have a funny relationship with this song, I had to write a paper for a college class about how cultures interpret art in different ways. I decide to write about how the different versions of the songs show the different perspectives on Gustavus Adolphus. To make a long story short, I listened to the Swedish version so many times that I had the lyrics memorized. Fast forward a whole pandemic, Sabaton was playing a last-minute show in Denver where the audience picked the songs. To troll the crowd, they started singing the Swedish Version...
That's when I knew my time had come, I was the only person in my section who knew the lyrics.
What were the reactions of Sabaton and the rest of the crowd?
This pandemic needs to be over already. I need my live shows back. Sabaton put on such an insane level of show. I cannot imagine how exhausted the band is by the end of a single stop, let alone the end of a tour. This triple reaction was so much fun, and I agree. Par's bass tone is just fantastic. So are all the instruments tbh. They know *exactly* where the tone needs to be.
The guy in the gas mask is Joakim performing Attack of the Dead Men. They have some sort of mic rigged into the mask to allow him to sing.
I actually found that out after I uploaded the video, which is awesome. Like I said in the pop-up, a lot of the time the people in costumes like that are part of the crew. Rob Zombie is super notorious for that as well. I think it's more surprising to me that it IS Joakim in the outfit. Haha
@@TankTheTech They really are one of the greatest bands and criminally underrated here in the US. Aside from the music, the lyrics are meaningful and powerful. You should see the amount of ebooks I have in my collection just because I want to dig deeper into the stories. After reacting to "No Bullets Fly" (and you will), you need to read the book behind the story "A Higher Call."
@@TankTheTech Also, I think your dad would love "Red Baron." There's a very Deep Purpley vibe to it.
Oh nice! I’ll definitely dig it too!
@@TankTheTech would love if you do a reaction to the red baron. It's a bit different but it's absolutly one of my favorite songs of the Great war album
Apocalyptica joined in re-recording Sabaton's "Angels Calling" off of their second album Attero Dominatus. They made a MV from the session and it was released as a single. Then Apocalyptica opened for Sabaton on the second leg of the Great Tour, and came on stage for Angels Calling and several songs after.
They also released a cover for Fields of Verdun before the original Fields of Verdun by Sabaton was released
Angels Calling with Apocalyptica is amazing and so much better than the original imo
Oh yes! Carolus Rex is one of my favorite Sabaton albums, and this song is easily my favorite off that album, followed by The Carolean's Prayer.
This song is so much better in the swedish version. The whole album is better in swedish. Still a great video man! ¨Love the vidoes!
Agreed! I keep telling my non Swedish speaking friends as well. Not that the English album doesn’t have any impact on me when listening to it but the Swedish album just strike me like a lightning every time I listen to it. I can’t wait for their new Swedish album and I do have high expectation of it, I mean at least be as good as the Swedish Carolus Rex please!
This is actually one of the songs where I prefer the english version to be honest, I like the more outside viewing in perspective the english version takes
I don't really car if the Swedish version sounds better because especially for Sabaton I want to understand the Lyrics.
For a lot of music the lyrics don't matter but for Sabaton they are important. At least for me.
The swedish lyrics are so much more bad ass
"Legenden den löd
örnens död
den skållas i helvetets glöd"
which can roughly be translated into
"The legend fortold
the death of the eagel
is scalded in the embers of hell"
@@qqchan rofl, på svenska blev det lite mer badass :)
That plane on stage... I remember the concert in Oberhausen and Joakim said "This is a party organ. Because every time we play on it, it's a party" :D I love those guys, they are funny, their music is awesome and their concerts are epic and there is always so much going on!
Attack of the dead men next!!! Make sure you watch the russian version of it aswell :)
Also when he does the tour video watch the live in Moscow version where Radio Tapok performed with Sabaton.
The plane is from The Red Baron and the gas mask is from Attack of the Dead Men. Speaking of, please do Attack of the Dead Men, lyric video, tour video and the live version featuring Radio Tapok. Awesome!!!!
The Stockholm show was amazing! I was there with my son, having a blast. Apocalyptica played several songs with Sabaton. It was so awesome!
Your pronunciation was good. I'm always impressed by how well and clear you pronounce both Swedish and Finnish words and names. It's rare for an English-speaking to get everything even remotely correct.
I’ve been learning Finnish on the side so I’m getting better. Haha
I was there too, it was my first metal show, and probably the best choice. It would’ve been even better if I spoke Swedish so I could understand what they were saying.
The swedish version of the song is so f*cking good! And live even more!
Tank, Check out there song "Great War", the official music video and the live video from the Great Tour. In my opinion one of Sabatons most epic song by far!!!
Btw, you gonna love the pyros in the live video;)
Nice that you choose the Swedish version to end with... The Swedish lyrics from the entire album has a better flow as it was written in Swedish. Keep up the good work!
I forget how much I love Par's sound every time. Mad props to the band and the team behind them. Top notch all the way around.
I swear I said this before I saw Tank say it lol
I love the history Sabaton puts in their music! They seem to be fair to all militaries. They don't make a habit of demonizing honest soldiers of any side. We need more of this.
This song is also a part of the Europa Universalis IV DLC Sabaton Soundtrack - The 30 years war is a central point in the game, and there's something intensely satisfying about crushing heretic armies while blasting Sabaton... Was my gateway into Sabaton.
I have met the guys from apocalyptica when they were in Scotland., they are amazing guys, very funny and down to earth.
Their gig was amazing too. I hope I get to meet the guys from sabaton someday 🤗.
I love watching your reactions, you can see you limbering up for a full head bang. Your smile gets wider and wider 🤗💕🏴
One of my fev from Sabaton!!!
And you need to do Calorus Rex, one of the best of them for sure.
Yes. Do a reaktion on that song...please🙏
If you haven't checked out their tour vlogs yet, most if not all of the non performance shots from the MV are from there.
I would love a reaction to those, maybe in a livestream?
Some of them are hilarious
@@eves1503 Tommy explaining the teaspoon rule, their “workouts,” forgetting their passes and pointing to the side of the bus for their ID’s, all great stuff
@@hsguitars4828 right? or when Tommy said “Hannes turns birthday today”, or when they were practicing the Great War song in a bathroom or something super small, or when Par was laying next to an ant hill and saying how blissful life is (bless him), or the whole episode when they went hiking in LA and Tommy tried doing aerobics on the way up 😂 Their vlogs are great.
Yeah I second that, Tank, if you enjoy backstage stuff their vlogs from the great tour are amaaaaazing. That's how i fell in love with the band (yeh, i fell in love with the band before i fell in love with their music :D)
Any song by Sabaton is a solid "head bang song", but Lion From The North is THE song to head bang song. One of my favorite songs ever by them
So happy you watched the Swedish version as well! Thank you for that, it's one of my absolute favorites and I wish the english translations out there could make it more justice. :D
One of my favourite Sabaton song.
The Song Carolus Rex with apokalyptica Is amazing too
I have to ask for Hell and Back for next Saturday. When I was deployed with the 3rd ID, I played it once and next thing I know half the base was blasting Sabaton.
"What? Where that plane come from??" ......"The Re Baron live" intensifies...... 😂
If I remember correctly, Joakim teased the crowd by playing the intro for Swedish Pagans on the organ inside the "plane"
I remember a couple of years ago when I was on a bus on my way to Uni, listening to this song when I noticed a street sing passing by that said Gustav-Adolf-Street. Very surreal moment for me, a reminder how history is all around us if we decide to look out for it.
Funnily enough that street also has a crossroad with a Bismarckstreet, which now also has a Sabaton song.
(I live in Germany btw, so both of these are kinda common names for streets around here)
Awesome reaction Tank!! I think you will sure love the official video of The Great War! That one is packed with a lot tour footage! 😉
Actually well done on the swedish pronunciation of the title! Not that far off, as a swede I'm impressed! :) Great reaction as always Tank!
I saw them live in Dallas in 2019, and a long time Sabaton fan, but THIS song is the one that hit me in the face during the show. Totally blown away by this performance. it's now one of my favorites. Tank, you gotta see these guys live! (damn you COVID).
You did pretty good with the Swedish title, I have lived in US for 16 years... No one can still pronounce my name correctly including my wife.. lol.. A note on the pyro and explosives. During the Great Tour hey use 46 flame throwers and 8000 kg of explosives.. that's 17 600 lbs.
Great one....or is that great three? ;)
A few inputs:
1. There really is a differance between the English version and the Swedish. It is not quite as big a difference as A life time of war/En livstid i krig, but the entire album is differnt enough lyrics wise to almost feel like 2 totalt different albums..as a Swede that is.
2. In the MV you didn´t miss the fist bumps with Amaranthe, right? ;)
3. Regarding the number of trucks and busses: You can most problobly divide it by 2. Europe and especially Sweden has really strict regulations regarding the amount of time a truck/bus driver are allowed to drive, so most of the trucks/buses on this tour probobly has 2 drivers a piece to be able to keep rolling non-stop
4. And this is an important one........ Still no Avatar? I really need a GUitar tech to tell me if they are having sex with their guitars on "Hail the apocalypse", or if they just are abusing the shit out of them ;)
5. As stated in the beginning: Great!!! Keep em coming :)
Yeah that bus/truck driver thing is for real. They can't even drive a second over the time with these new digital trackers without risking massive fines.
I agree with point one; I’m Scottish but speak Swedish so it was like discovering an entire new album when I realised it was available in Swedish too. I love that they sing the Swedish versions of the album Sweden - I have actually travelled to see them live there purely for this reason.
@@eddiewinehosen6665 yeah, I was gonna jump on that one as well. With 12 drivers, it's most certainly 5-6 trucks and 3-4 busses (maybe they have some drivers as reserve, idk). And it's not only Sweden, but I can also attest to Germany having super strict regulations regarding driving hours, mandatory rests etc.
As a sidenote: I'm not exactly 100% certain, but I think the guy with the gas mask that @TankTheTech chose for a still to talk about stagehands is actually Joakim himself.
Another great reaction to a song from an amazing band.
I highly recommend two songs with cameos in the music video, the Red Baron and the attack of the dead men.
Also great to see on of your tour photos in the Tank Facts
Damn 😎😎😎
Thanks for a really awesome reaction om my favourite Sabaton song!
You should take song by song on the Carolus Rex album, it’s the story about the Swedish empire! This is the opening song (1st track is just the intro to this song, you could hear it on the 2nd and 3rd video here).
Keep up the good work!
Best regards from Sweden!!
What's better than a Sabaton reaction? A triple Sabaton reaction.
I can't wait for you to get to Red Baron and Attack Of The Dead Men
This Song (in it's swedish version) is by far my favourite Sabaton Song.
Tank... How could you missed the FANTASTIC official video of "Screaming Eagles" from Sabaton? It is top quality!
So glad you included the swedish version, i was there :) greetings from Sweden!
Oh, you already have in your head the lyrics from 40:1. Nice catch (It reminds me everytime I listen to this song too)
Man, I love your videos! Great job with the Swedish! I am from Sweden but live in Las Vegas, NV. Hope to meet you when you pass through Las Vegas. Rock on and keep up the good work!
. . Greetings from Sweden . . Did really enjoy those 34min. watching this reaction , thanx Tank . . . :O) .
i got no words...triple reaction...u just keep finding ways to suprise and blow my mind
thank you
Man this song is so great, how ever the version in swedish is my favorite.
Fun fact. They used over 8000 kilos of pyro on the great tour. Around 23 gigs.
God how I miss Sabaton Saturday man! Pls come back!
Fun fact! Gustavus Adolphus is the founder of Gothenburg in 1621! So you could say that he is the originator for all the great metal from Gothenburg 👊
Really like your reactions, keep up the good work👍
Great reaction (again)! Love that you did the 3 versions. It was great seeing you so happy with the tour footage 😁 and yes, Sabaton are the kind of nice guys who credit their crew. They have some great backstage footage of their great tour as well on their channel.
Nice to hear you're an Apocalyptica fan! Love them and have been following them for years as well. I can confirm, their shows and their music are amazing!
Really enjoyd this video thank you so much for it. Great
pronunciation on Lejonet från Norden :)
here in Nuremberg we have a Gustav Adolf Strasse (Gustav Adolf Street) During the 30th war Nuremberg and Sourrounding was a famous battlefield Gustaf against Wallenstein.
Dude with that beard you're actually the spitting image of the grandfather of Gustavus Adolphus, Gustav Vasa, the most important king in the history of Sweden.
I'm so glad I made it to a Sabato. Show in early 2020. I was In Stuttgart on Hannes Birthday It was a really great show
Nice!
The song in Swedish is such a beastly powerhouse. Thanks for reacting to this one
I would recommend from them the song "Ruina Imperii" so epic
I have to share this feeling because I hope you and others will understand it. @10:36 the intro lures you in with peace and calm, and when I am at a live show, I look around and see everyone feeling those same things, maybe catching their breath from moshing,everything is still. I can't help but think that a lot of these people don't know what is coming and there is nothing they can do to stop it. @11:00 there is a slight pause then all hell breaks loose, instantaneous mosh pit and chaos everywhere. I hope all Sabaton fans get to experience this one day. Certainly one of my most favorite feelings of any concert I've been to, it is truly explosive energy.
The footage of the Stockholm concert really brings that feeling out, and the large screen hypnotizes you with the flame burning. I can't say enough good things about this song.
I love the "screaming" cello in the opening, so haunting! And the slow, almost stalking sound that slowly builds up into the song proper with what sounds like a deep breath followed by a massive BLAST of artillery in the live version, so awesome!
The same Swedish ruler was active in my home country at the time as well (Estonia), during the period 2 well known schools in his name was built during the so called "good old Swedish times". If I remember correctly we invited a previous Swedish king to help or protect us against our hostile neighbours.
One of if not our most famous Tartu Ülikool (university) then Academia Gustaviana and well known Gustav Adolf Grammar School were built in that timespan.
We had some famous vikings as well, our Oeselians, vikings from Ösel (Saaremaa) raided the Swedes as well... one of the earliest vikings and among the last pagans, 2nd largest viking finds in the world. Interesting back-and-forth battles with knights.
This is one of my most loved songs from Sabaton, it's just too perfect to not like it. So pure, fast heavy at once. Those latin words hit so hard! I love it so much. Sooo, just gonna binge watch all of your Sabaton reactions :D and I have been at the first concert where they introduced Fields of Verdun and holy molly. I loved it. No one knew it but it rocked a lot.
This was awesome! Thnx! Loved every second!
the most sabaton reacts make you happy but i think this is the best so far.. sorry for my bad english. Thx for all of them
I really loved the reaction video u made, i watched drumcam of van dahl playing this song and it was amazying. As a former drummer this was fun to watch
Munich, January 19, 2020. Such a great show :-)
Seen Apocalyptica Live last year in February on the Sabaton Tour.
And yes, they were awesome. they played Symphony of destruction and the whole crowd went wild.
As a swede I have to say I am partial to the swedish version of this song... of Any of the songs from that album actually... The lyrics are slightly different to make them work in the respective languages, but that is not all, to hear the songs of the swedish empire in my own language is an almost spiritual experience as I journey through our history XD
Man this was an awesome reaction! To do a triple reaction was great and am so glad the swedish version was included. Instant goosebumps as Joakim started to sing a the live version! And as always on this channel, alot of cool information from you Tank, thank you!
What an awsome reaction video! Just loved the triple threat reaction! I am impressed that you take the time to look up on the history of the Sabaton songs. Looking forward to more! Extra probs for you playing the Swedish versions to, as a Swede it feels just right! Can it please be saturday soon again...
Hahahaha that ending when he's just standing under the towel. He's exhausted.
Your Swedish was good. I'm glad you pronounced the j correct.
Brilliant. Awesome.
Sabaton kicks ass
.tx mate stay safe
Lovely reaction (as always) to one of the bests songs by Sabaton.
Speaking about pyro, another fun fact: Sabaton brought about 8500kg of explosives on the great tour... as a reference to the pyro :).
Since you watched the Sabaton History tonthis song; Thanks for another great reaction with more great back stage information, “not Chase” haha
saw them before the Pandemic in Southampton UK their tour sets are amazing their drummer was built inside a TANK
Came here without knowing this was a triple reaction. I might need a neck brace now.
I'm reaaaally looking forward to videos where you can go a bit more in depth with production/tech stuff.
Awesome as always. Thanks for this, Tank!
This brings back good memories, I saw Sabaton live on the great tour just before the pandemic started. It was my very first metal concert, my very first real big concert really, so it was memorable and I wanted to go see more (this was to be the warmup before seeing Nightwish live the next year but this has yet to happen...). I was at the Stockholm concert, it was special because Sabaton has apparantly dreamed of performing at that arena :)
That was one of the best experiences of my life, I've loved Sabaton for quite a while but I hadn't gotten myself to see any of their concerts. Was so happy to be able to attend this one, I was told they were awesome live but they very much exceeded the high expectations I had.
As for the man in the gasmask, you will find out Attack of dead men :D
I appreciate the pop-up Tank facts!
As a Swede this whole album is a patriotic ride through both epic and sad feelings. It evokes a lot of patriotism, especially in Swedish. When I listen to it, I listen to the whole album in one go, from start to finish, as its best enjoyed.
Also: I play this album in the background when I dominate the world as Sweden in EU4. #SwedenIsNotOverpowered
Just found your channel, and so far I am loving all the reactions!
You seem like a super genuine and fun guy! Cheers
Thanks a ton!!
I accidentally found you, subbed already because of the awesome fact boxes inserted in your videos
It was Hannes Birthday on Jan, 18 2020 in Stuttgart. I was there and saw them live a few weeks before Covid stuck... absolute amazing show.
I was at the concert in Prague Hannes mentions at 21:52. It was truly amazing! Still waiting for live version of Far From the Fame from this show
Dammit tank, you were so busy headbanging you missed the old lady rocking out at 11:16. Its awesome hahaha.
My favourite Sabaton song 😎🤘
Looking forward to this reaction 💪💪👌👌
This specific live performance, I was there and in that vid, I'm vissible in the crowd. This show was out of this world. So crazy and so much fun
Keep up those fact boxes. Helped me a lot with the context of the song! Hoping to see them in future videos! : Lots of love from Norway.
Love their 17 сentury coats. Was in Great tour March 13 2020 In Moscow was awesome as i expected
I fucking love the fact that you're playing Insomnium in the background
Another great reaction man!! 😃😃👌🏼💯🦋
You're making Saturdays a bit better with these, man! Thank you, and take care, Tank!
And I look forward to more Saturdays with more Sabaton - there's a lot to go still!
Also, don't worry - the pronounciation was fine! ^^
Loved it👍👍Going for 3 next saturday also i hope 😁😀
Freakin great reaction!!🤘🤘 And your pronunciation was really, really good! 👍
Everytime when you start headbanging I'm worried you will miss something in the video 🤣🤣 Great reaction video!! 💪
I usually do. Hahaha
Sabaton's show at Wembley was the last show I went to before lockdown! Was epic! Also Apocalyptica had a much more integral part than just guesting on a single track, there was a whole portion of the set where they were on stage. So you'll no doubt see more of them as you continue your Sabaton journey.
Also check out Angels Calling that Sabaton released with Apocalyptica prior to the tour, or perhaps Apocalyptica: Live or Die ft. Joakim if you've not heard that one already.
in case you missed it the guy in the hazmat mask etc carries a flamethrower, as for the plane i would agree given Red Baron has a keyboard solo part too
Fashion Fact - Nice of Apocalyptica to wear matching "Urban Camo" trousers (pants) that Sabaton seem to wear as part of their band's uniform.
Urban Camouflage is a derivative of the US M81 Woodland Pattern Camouflage, but with shades of grey used to reflect an urban environment. It was first seen in the late 1990's. Whilst it was highly sought after by Hollywood studios, hip hop artists, and used by third world militias and police forces, it was never actually adopted other than for occasional "enemy forces" roles by the US Military.
One of their best for sure. I love it.
The guy in the gas mask with the tanks on his back btw is Joakim - it was part of their London performance of Attack of the Dead Men
This was one of the best moments from the encore in London! Fucking loved that show!
Hey man, a year ago in February I went from Portugal to Stockholm in most part of that show and you gotta go check em out live. It was the last show I went to and it´s magical being among sweds, singing in swedish. Great great show and a great great reaction!
Wow dude that pronunciation in swedish on Lejonet från Norden was GREAT, you might be one of us Swedish one day :D
Music, art, culture, & history, all in one shot. How good is that? Great stuff.
I've seen them three times during that Tour. Rock am Ring, Wacken and Oberhausen, Germany. Three different concerts, it was awesome!
First load I ever pulled as a truck driver was for the Barnum and Bailey Circus. They had five 53 foot trailers and three flat bed trailers of stuff, and their train for personnel, their animals, and two more flat cars of gear. They had two drivers from my company permanently attached to move stuff around for them and I was assigned as their third truck driver for three days. Really cool. Their second driver was off doing something, so I went with the lead driver, a former SAS guy, to get the horses and elephants from the train. Train cars are huge and massively heave, so it was pretty crazy when I twigged to the fact that one of the cars was ROCKING. Lead driver explained that that was the elephant car, and the two elephants were in there gently swaying, which was enough to rock the whole car. I pulled the horses and their riders back to the arena, and I drove 15 mph and took every bump and turn like I had a load of eggs.
So yes, twelve trucks, even with smaller European trucks, is a massive setup.
And yes, mad props to the riggers, who were taking truckloads of equipment and basically building a second stage setup sans a stage upon which to set it up, while dangling a hundred or so feet above a concrete floor. Maaad props.
