so he was a cossack, a hun, an achaemenid, us light cavalry, english french, hussar, dragoon, sioux warrior, and a khan, a white, a red, a tsar guard, us special forces, a crusader, polish, a mounty, a confederate, crimean, swiss, and sweden, uhlan and an aussie
He has done alot it seems
Guess he's gotta story or two
The antithesis of "you need experience for this job"
No cataphracts or Numidian lights, or Grierson's raiders. big sad
@Time Keeper I couldn’t help but notice you only mention “US Special Forces”, from which I deduce that you’re yet another American that thinks of the American military as the greatest, but feel free to correct it.
You have no idea how disappointing it is when reading an incorrect comment about a song when the lyrics are “I was with the special forces…”, but to imagine that only Americans were in Afghanistan is showing a great deal of disrespect to all the allies that fought and died there.
Horses time in war has come and gone, but it still boggles my mind that for thousands of years, only until a little over 100 years ago, horses were one of our greatest tools and weapons, and all it took was one war to change everything
Not quite; there were other times in history (such as before the invention of stirrups or in the 1600s after the Battle of Breitenfeld) when infantry was the dominant force on the battlefield.
@@lukebarber9511he's more talking about cavalry being outclassed by tanks.
I feel that as long as armies need a quiet mode of transportation immune to modern detection with the ability to move at decent pace the cavalry man would still live. They are being used right now actually in the conflict in Ukraine
It's really interesting that the tempo picks up until the great war, slows, and then picks back up after the part about the US special forces riding in Afghanistan.
A reference to us potentially bombing ourselves back to the industrial age...
@R2RO20 while that is one interpretation of it I like to think it's more so the ghost of cavalry (or Horse Soilders lol) looking on the Special Forces on horse back and rejoicing that there breed of soldiers aren't dead after WW1
While dogs may be man's best friend
Horses are our brother in arms, fought and bleed together through countless conflicts, it is time to let them rest and enjoy peace
9.5/10. At least one of those "hussars" should have been the Polish winged variant, but I'll give you back most of the points because you also added the fadeout part.
Whenever I play BF1, I play this song on repeat while playing as the Cavalry class. Gives you a little moral boost.
I love being cavalry in that game
Oh I’m not the only one
@@billychops1280 god I wish they let us have a game mode with only Cavalry, cause CHARGING as cavalry has to be the best
Holy shit, I thought I was the only one!
The eternal horse sodger, riding on, for whatever master, mars' righful son... sodgers story, sodgers glory, when the battle's lost or won, horseflesh"s a shilling the ton...poor beasties of war! German Wehrmacht in WWll had app. 1.5 million killed or deceased horses...."Why, it's a damn crime that horses are in the war!" Private Detersen in Remarques "All quiet on the western front") having ridden a gentle Trakhener myself, I can't imagine hurting one of these gentle (if occasionally stubborn) creatures for "all the tea in china"... The monsters are us! 😢
i love this music video so much. It really helped me learn the different horse men of history. really great video dude
This song gave me freaking goosbumbs for the first time in a long while from music! man i love history
Finally found a lyric video for this song
This is just a horse having an identity crisis for 5 minutes and 13 seconds
A finer song has not been written or performed.
I dont why but I get chills from this song. Men faced with certain death with a companion who would disregard its own life to follow them, its honorable its beyond the instinct of normal animals and for some reason, regardless of how evil war is, is beautiful.
True.
The picture at 2:31 wasn't the charge of the light brigade in Crimea, it's the charge of the scots greys in waterloo, just a correction
And it is in fact not even a light brigade but a heavy brigade
The images make this so surreal
When the modern industrial world inevitably collapses into the next dark age, the horse soldier will reign supreme once again...
No Matter Defeat Or Victory, In Battle It Occurs To Me. That We May See A Swelling In Our Ranks.
Sadly....that time will come.....and most things and most people will be gone
A horse a horse, my kingdom for a horse!
I'm a hussar, I'm a Hun, I'm a wretched Englishman
Routing Bonaparte at Waterloo
I'm a dragoon on a dun, I'm a Cossack on the run
I'm a horse soldier, timeless, through and through
I?m a horse soldier, eternal, through and through
I's with Custer and the 7th in ?76 or ?77
Scalped at Little Big Horn by the Sioux
And the tears and devistation of a once proud warrior nation
This I know ?cause I was riding with them too
I drank mare's blood on the run when I rode with the Great Khan
On the frozen Mongol steppe when at his height
I's a White Guard, I's a Red Guard, I's the Tsar's own palace horse guard
When Romanov was murdered in the night
I knew Salah al-Din and rode his swift Arabians
Harassing doomed crusaders on their heavy drafts
And yet I rode the Percheron against the circling Saracen
And once again against myself was cast
Well I've worn the Mounties crimson, if you're silent and you listen
You'll know that it was with them that I stood
When Mayerthorpe, she cried, as her four horsemen died
Gunned down in scarlet, coldest blood
I's the firstest with the mostest when I fought for Bedford Forrest
Suffered General Wilson's Union raid
Mine was not to reason why, mine was but to do and die
At Crimea with the charging light brigade
On hire from Swiss or Sweden, be me Christian, be me heathen
The devil to the sabre I shall put
With a crack flanking maneuver, I'm an uhlan alles uber
Striking terror into regiment of foot
I knew my days were numbered when o?er the trenches lumbered
More modern machinations de la guerre
No match for rapid fire or the steel birds of the sky
With a final rear guard action I retreat
No match for barbered wire or the armoured engines whine
Reluctant I retire and take my leave
Today I ride with special forces on those wily Afghan horses
Dostum?s Northern Alliance give their thanks
No matter defeat or victory, in battle it occurs to me
That we may see a swelling in our ranks
I?s with the Aussies at Beersheba took the wells so badly needed
And with the Polish lancers charging German tanks
Saw Ross' mount shot down at Washingtown the night we burned the White House down
And cursed the sack of York and sons of Yanks
When I see that image at 1:59 all I see is the death korps of Krieg riding into machine gun fire with lances that have explosives at the end of the tip.
I swear every time I listen to this song I just want to hop on a horse and just ride.
The Polish lancers charging German tanks. Beautiful line
I'm a hussar but sadly we only rode M113s, great job on the video
First in, last out
Too bad ot a single picture of polish ulan or hussar
So glad someone finally made a lyric video.
I love it 💖
Thank you very much ^^
Did not expect this, I like it!
Nobody expects the Country Inquisition
Hope you like some different Content, next time you get a "normal" Synthwave Musiv Video instead.
But maybe just maybe you like this one too.
He forgot the Winged Hussars charging from Kahlenberg 😿
Just gotta wait for the Winged Hussars to arrive I guess. Maybe they'll come down the mountainside.
@@TheologyMan74 This New Year I was by car over there. I came down the mountainside on a bit of fog during the night from Kahlenberg to Wienna. Impressive. I was imagining that cavalry charge. The view on the City is indeed something that rings bells of history...
@@TheologyMan74they may suddenly turn the tide.
@@Cheesemonkey231 and hypothetically we would remember in September when the winged hussars arrived
Nice,I like it.
I love this video
Proud to say I saw Corb's full uniform performance at the Jubilee here in Calgary. His Rattling Sabres tour.
i need this song like i need water ❤
Ride on cowboy, ride on
Nice 👍🏻
This song makes me so sad...
I's the fustest with the mustest when I fought for bedford forrest
this song is genial
John horse Soldier
IHAI!!! Ride! Ride!
Great video.
What does de la guerre mean?
La Guerre means "the War" in French.
But it means something different.
There is a quit famous German Book about Strategy that is named "Vom Kriege" from a General called Clausewitz.
And "Vom Kriege" is called "De La Guerre" in French.
Corb Lund talks about "Vom Kriege" cause Clauswitz talked in his book about how War changed and a more Mobile approch is needed, which was basis for most of the German Doctrin in the last Century and which founded the Blitzkrieg and Tank Warfare.
"Machinations de la guerre" Machines or crafts of war.
Simply put, it just meant in this case - “of the War”. The whole line relates to rapid fire, barbed wire, trenches, tanks, and aircraft - “the steelers of the sky and the machinations de la guerre”..
@@Lord_Ronin_The_Compassionate steelbirds
@@findantu I stand corrected. Probably it’s my hearing but when Corb sings it it still sounds to me that it’s “Steelers”. No excuses as the bloody lyrics were there to start with! Time for this Norwegian Blue to fall off his perch, it’s well overdue.

Good to have you back solider!
@Time Keeper I couldn’t help but notice you only mention “US Special Forces”, from which I deduce that you’re yet another American that thinks of the American military as the greatest, but feel free to correct it.
You have no idea how disappointing it is when reading an incorrect comment about a song when the lyrics are “I was with the special forces…”, but to imagine that only Americans were in Afghanistan is showing a great deal of disrespect to all the allies that fought and died there.
Its because by the end of September 2001, we had US S.F. and CIA scouting pre invasion, on horse back, entrenched with the northern alliance. You don't know how disappointing it is to see none Americans run that suck with zero knowledge of what actually occurred on the ground.
@@thomasetter6056 Unfortunately you’re also showing your ignorance of who was there in Ghanners. As part of the British SF, specifically the SBS, we were there in mid-October/November 2001, which is when our American cousins were there (October 2001, not September!).
Our colleagues from the SAS were also there, so your comments trying to make it out to be a purely American only operation, shows a great deal of disrespect and disservice to those that were fighting alongside the American SF.
With that attitude it’s hardly surprising that a lot of countries distrust/hate narrow minded Americans especially those that believe, without reason, that they’re the only ones fighting the terrorists. Would you care to amend your incredibly inaccurate comments or do you prefer to stick with your biased, inaccurate BS?
Even a cursory check with Wikipedia conform that none of us were in Ghanners prior to mid-October 2001, and for my unit (SBS) we were still there when the Tora Bora Bunfight kicked off - but I don’t recall seeing you there!
Care to explain?
@@Lord_Ronin_The_Compassionate Odd, I also don't recall ever seeing you on a patrol or kicking something off.
Say what you want about the Stan, it had 2 major players, none of them where the UK. We held it down, then when we shifted to Iraq, Canada took over as the main armored force for years.
As far as narrow minded goes, that isn't correct. They where factually American dominated wars, yes we had a coalition that had many nations contributions, bit it doesn't change that the GWOT was an American campaign, started by Americans, because of an attack on America.
Did I say you or your nation was crap? I don't think so. Did I say no other nation co tribute and sacrificed? Don't think I said that either. I spoke in fact. Factually the CIA and US SF rode on horses with the Northern Alliance. That is fact and it isn't up for debate.
@@thomasetter6056 Sorry mate but you’re an ignorant idiot. I know because I was there……..
I tried to advise you of your America-centric attitude being incorrect but you decided to double down on your ignorant claims. How does it feel to be just another Walter Mitty?
You need to pay attention to the lyrics more. It has nothing to do with Being bias towards Americans. Yes several other NATO allies fought in Afghanistan. But that part of the song is in reference to American Green Berets who were the first to boots on the ground in Afghanistan in 2001. Fighting alongside the Northern Alliance led by General Abdul Rashid Dostum, the troops, often riding on horseback, achieved important victories against the Taliban. As far as I know no other nations troops fought on horseback in Afghanistan. Again it has nothing to do with Bias towards Americans he's just simply singing history as he did throughout the song. The singer himself is Canadian and mentions Canadian Mounties and many other nations. Just listen, enjoy and revel in the history mentioned in the lyrics.
I swear with the end of this song surely there's more to it but I can't find it.
