This is the English version of the song you heard last week "En Livstid I Krig" this version is slightly different in point of view but also very good.
Not slightly different. The Swedish version cut deep if you understand Swedish. It truly point out the soldiers contribution will not be appreciated for the sacrifice they have done.
Well Damn lmao!
@@MaskinJuniorAlso Sweden did , as unlikely as it sounds like today, did kinda helped the protestants win. There is a fun sketch with steven fry about the treaty of westphalia when sweden germany, england and france made a treaty after 3 decades of war, the 30 years war. Back then, sweden was also a small country, one contributing factor as to why historians think sweden did so well in the 30 years war, was because the soldiers themselves really thought they were doing the right thing by trying to cast out all the catolic beliefs. And hey im happy for it, well done / a swede who sucks at latin numbers.
This war started as a conflict between protestants and catholics, in Central Europe, (1618-1648). Sweden got involved in 1630 because Swedish territory was threatened and had to be defended. One really sick thing about it, was that Swedish nobles (and the crown as well) made fortunes of this war. Some of the castles in our country was built with blood money...(religion and greed). That was one reason why Swedish government and nobles didn't want it to end at first.
Great reaction, again!🤘
Thank you very much 🤘🤘🤘
And nowhere is that more obvious than in the song 1648 on the album. When the rest of Europe are trying their hardest to negotiate peace after 30 years of war, Sweden goes on a rampage through Bohemia (nowadays Western Chech Republic) to secure as much loot as possible while its still up for grabs.
It's a good song, check it out! :D
@@markusjongren4098 That's a great song!🤘 That part of our history is one of those things I'm ashamed of. (On the other hand, "my" part of Sweden where a part of Denmark at the time).
The damn Swedes stole the hugest hand written book during that war! As much as I love Sabaton and as much as I normally don't mind Swedes: fuck you! Rerurn our treasure.
@@markusjongren4098 Yes, as long Sweden was good at war they could earn money and riches by it, it was said that it was cheaper for them to go to war than to have peace. So the logic became that they shoud finish what they had started, it became normal for them to both start and end war over and over, many kings that way inherited ongoing wars and conflicts from earliers kings. This is how Sweden became an empire for a while until Russia and Norway took down the empire and humbled the swedish nobles and kings. The swedish people were actually really poor because all the money earned through the war was also used only for the impressive buildings and then for the military. The Caroleans was one of best military power in Europe despite it's small size. This only because Denmark was the wake up call for the swedish kings for making Sweden wanna get stronger in the first place as had lost to Denmark and felt humiliation during the 30 year war and noticed that if wanted save the swedish land and save it from outsiders Sweden had to become the bully. Swedish kings did not want to lose to Denmark and Norway so Sweden did everything they could to improve its military that had lost to Denmark. The bigger and stronger Sweden became at war then the more enemies it got, the goal for Swedish kings was probably to be recoginised as a super power in Europe kind of like how France and Great Britain was. Greed and Religion and the success definitly got to the swedish kings heads.
I'm turning 29 this year. So if this war had begun when I was born, it would still have over a full year to go. It's insane to realize the scope of this. You could have easily been born and died without ever knowing peace in this time. And given how many millions of people died in this war, a lot of them probably did. Imagine living your entire life in just one war. Man truly has gone insane. And it's sad to realize that we're not any better today.
30 years of war. Just imagine. Most died of sickness/dissease or hunger. War fueled by religion and greed.
Insane to think about it.
@@v3tReacts
The Thirty Years War began because some emissarys of the Catholic Emperor were thrown out a window by a Protestant mob and ended with nearly 1/5 of Germany's population dying in battle, or from desase, hunger and the atrocities committed by both sides
@@v3tReacts
wars on the scale of the Thirty Years War and English Civil War are the price people had to pay because Kings, Emperors, Lords, Dukes, Popes, Cardinals, Priests, Parlaments, Princes and others saw themselves as God's represenatives on Earth and thus their reigns were ordained by God himself, or came solely from the nobility, clergy, or upper middle classes
Gotta love to see how much you enjoy listening Sabaton :)
Always! 🤘🤘
I will have to recommend the swedish version of this song, it's got a different story line, more about how the 30 year war hit the home. Specifically: Sabaton - En Livstid I Krig (Live in Gothenburg).
He already whatched it.
I would have loved to see them English revise the original lyrics......fighting side by side beside their kin hoping to be remembered by family while fighting for their homeland.....more meaningful
@mikewachowiak4976 This is why I prefer the English version. People tend to get the wrong the ideas from the Swedish, as if they aren't listening to the lyrics. It was a disasterous war for Sweden.
People dragged away from their farms, leaving poverty and famine behind. Hundreds of years to recuperate for that disaster. They didn't fight for their country, their fight is what helped destroy Sweden. And with the poverty, the King even melted down the church bells to pay for the war, no one had time to mourn people they hadn't seen in the last 10-20 years.
The lyrics clearly say there was no glory to be found, yet people still try to find it. It was a meaningless war that only destroyed.
Lyrics from Swedish version translated to English!!
" I look around and see my home disappear
My time at home now feels far too short
Only youth, hardly a man when duty called me
If I get to see my home again, I do not know
Among relatives from my village, I went out to battle
And the world burned
For the war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who misses me?
So see me as it
A husband, a friend
Father and son never coming home
But who mourns me?
Went out in battle for Sweden, was baptized in blood
Out there, death awaits, not heroism
In fields where relatives fall, no song is heard
Challenging our destinies, once again
Far from home
Be baptized and die in battle
And the world burned
For the war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who misses me?
So see me as it
A husband, a friend
Father and son never coming home
But who mourns me?
"Guitar solo"
And when my time has run out
Who cares then?
They are struggling
Does a soldier get a dignified end?
Get to sleep
Disappear
And never wake up
For the war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who misses me?
So see me as it
A husband, a friend
Father and son never coming home
But who mourns me?"
🤘🤘 Thank you..
Dude, i gotta admit. This reaction brought tears to my eyes. I can’t imagine what you’ve went through being a war vet. Plus this song has really grown on my as one of my favorite Sabaton songs.
I look around and I see my home fade away
My time at home now feels far too short
Just a youth, barely a man when duty called me
If i get to see my home again, that I do not know
Amongst friends from my village, I went out to figtht
And the world burned
For war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who will mourn me?
So see me as
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never comes home
But who will miss me?
Went to fight for Sweden, was baptized in blood
Out there where death awaits, not heroism
In fields where kinsmen fall no song is heard
Challenging our destiny one more time
Far from home
Baptized and die in battle
And the world burned
For war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who will mourn me?
So see me as
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never comes home
But who will miss me?
And when my time runs out
Who cares then?
They fight on
Does a soldier get a worhty end?
To fall asleep
Pass away
And never wake up
For war it can
Destroy a man
I give my life for my homeland
But who will mourn me?
So see me as
A husband, a friend
Father and son who never comes home
But who will miss me?

Now when you have listened to both the english and swedish version, which one touched you most and why?
Swedish Version for sure! And the reasoning is just the pure power and energy behind the Swedish version and the venue they were playing in gave me the pride of my own country even with it in the condition its in.
@@v3tReacts It's not about pride though, it's about the pointless (from the swedish view) nature of the 30 Years War.
@@Gustav_Kuriga a little bit about pride as well right?
This song got me into sabaton and metal in general
I got into sabaton well wow lmao screaming eagles I believe.
@@v3tReacts first time i listened to sabaton was summer 2016
As a history nerd, I love Sabaton. They sound pretty good also
Yeah, as others have said. Swedish version with captions on.
look back a bit I did do the Swedish Version kind of not knowing HAHAHA
@@v3tReacts
Yeah, its almost a different song and the lyrics are more personal. It's an "i need to pause here" alot kind of lyrics.
My man, I liked this. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
The 30 years war was dark. It begun with Roman Catholic persecution of protestants - and protestants resisting.
But it spiralled into something broader - notably Roman Catholic France allied with the protestants because they were worried by the political ambitions of Spain.
I think by the end everyone just wanted the fighting to be over - however, as dark as it was it paved the way for (some measure of) religious freedom in several countries.
Yeah, it's one of my favorite piece of trivia to throw out that "the 30 years war is described as a war between protestants and catholics, but the catholic french HIRED protestant swedes to fight other catholics" (mostly spain, I think.) Makes you think about how history is presented afterwards.
@@cuffzter I think the largest part of it was Protestants + France vs catholics. Though it was messier than that at times.
While the treacherous Danes and Norwegians close to fight for the catholics. 😉
Gotta check out their song 'Attack of the Dead Men'
This is about the old war of europe and the 15 year old king Karl the 12th. All of the record is. Karls nickname was "Carolus Rex"
🔥🔥🔥
Just some nerdy trivia for you; The period from 1914-1945 is considered by many historians to be the "second" 30 Years War. Since WWI never really ended for a lot of people in Europe and Asia.
Sweet
Thanks for this comment... When you dig into the who's and why's it's easy to view that period as one armed conflict with a period of cease fire in the middle...
There's actually two versions of the Carolus Rex album, one English and a Swedish version.
The Swedish album has more depth in the lyrics, I highly recommend it with subtitles.
The only difference in those days the KING where in the first lines on the battlefield that´s a huge difference..today the "moneychangers" are hiding behind the curtains drawing in the threads to the puppets fighting their wars..!!
yep yep
Check out the history video they did on it too if you want the full story because there's a bit of important info that the song only says in passing
Ghost and v3t Sabaton History Reactions coming soon.
tbh the lyrics can touch the heart cause it's done that to me while i listen to this
Tack!
🤙
My Favorite Sabaton song is no bullets fly
I loved your reaction to the Swedish version alot better.....
Understand they are Swedish and not ABBA , but imo they pulled it of pretty damn good
Greetings from Germany :) I live in Schaumburg, which is till now named the county of Schaumburg-Lippe. The thirty years war lead to violence and death. The earl (or count idk) died in the middle of the war (kinda unfortunately bc he reigned really well and had brought education and wealth) and in the peace treaty in 1648 the county was divided and then sort of unified later. I have to say, that I am some times proud of our castle and the big roles Schaumburg-Lippe played (we even have a place in the National Museum of Portugal). The funny thing is, that I am not proud at all to be german.
What a great way to learn history! In this case Swedish and European but it seems human history is the history of our wars and Sabaton are great teachers!
Another Swedish band called Amaranthe has done a cover on Sabatons son called 82th All The Way so maybe you can do both versions and see which one you like
I def gonna have to check em out! 🤘🤘
This might be my favorite song on Carolus Rex it has a lot of competition on that album.
As a Christian man, it's insane to think how if they just took a peek in the book they claimed to believe in, they'd have known that what they were doing was absolutely nuts.😢
Was it though? Because that book endorses quite a lot of violence and backwards thinking. I respect the christians who live peacefull despite their books teaching, but as I said that is DESPITE the book, not because of it. Let's not pretend that the Bible doesn't expressly endorse war against non-believers, slavery and other things the primitive tribes who wrote the bible believed to be just during their time period. I respect you as a christian man, but let's not pretend that the people who killed in the name of your god did so without justification from your book, and that those who waged war injustly simply didn't believe in the teachings of your book.
Jeremiah 50:21
“Against the land of Merathaim, go up against it,
And against the inhabitants of Pekod.
Slay and utterly destroy them,” declares the Lord,
“And do according to all that I have commanded you."
Jeremiah 48:10
“Cursed be the one who does the Lord’s work negligently,
And cursed be the one who restrains his sword from blood.
Samuel 15:3-23 ICB
"Now go, attack the Amalekites. Destroy everything that belongs to them as an offering to the Lord. Don’t let anything live. Put to death men and women, children and small babies. Kill the cattle and sheep, camels and donkeys."
Chronicles 15:12-13 ESV
And they entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and with all their soul, but that whoever would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, should be put to death, whether young or old, man or woman.
Genesis 17:13
a slave born in your house, as well as one purchased with money, must be circumcised. My covenant will be marked in your flesh as an everlasting covenant.
Colossians 3:22-4:1
Slaves, obey your earthly masters in everything, not with a slavery performed merely for looks, to please people, but wholeheartedly, fearing the Lord.
Isaiah 14:1-2
But the Lord will have compassion on Jacob and will again choose Israel and will settle them in their own land, and aliens will join them and attach themselves to the house of Jacob. 2 And the nations will take them and bring them to their place, and the house of Israel will possess the nations[a] as male and female slaves in the Lord’s land; they will take captive those who were their captors and rule over those who oppressed them.
And that's just a few examples. I can list more if you want. A lot more. Jesus straight up tells an abused slave to return to their master for they will receive justice in heaven only if they serve well. That is the book that according to you, people who commit violence don't actually believe in.
If they read the Book, they'd realize that the Book says to "rightly divide" so anything after mid-Acts is for us and tells us of the history of the Body, anything before mid-Acts is history and/or for the Jews only, anything in Revelations is post-us (as we are the Body _not_ the Bride) and is for the Jews instead and a foretelling of what will happen once we as those of us who have accepted His gift and placed our trust in him (and everyone below the Age of Accountability, most likely 20 years)(and also note that we do not need any works to be saved nor can we lose our salvation no matter what though we can lose rewards in Heaven) are caught up and brought out of here before we face any of His Wrath. The Roman Catholic Church added loads of shit to it and with their basically black-ops Jesuits they can be called a nation unto themselves with some level of military power, basically their own little church-state, and it wasn't even a century yet after Jesus returned to Heaven did the Romans twist the Word and start perverting it. Then there was the Roman Catholic Church's reign and restricting the Word from the common man by burning every non-Latin copy they could find of the Bible, their priests preaching a tainted false "gospel" that goes against what the Word says and it wasn't until the Reformation centuries later did the Word begin to be translated into common languages, many decades of basically hot potato as authors run from the Jesuits who were hunting them down like rabies-infected mad dogs to slaughter them as they translate the Word and get it out there so people can read it and come to know the Lord through his Word rather than the words of that unholy pope and their sacraments and demonic false gospel. And after all that chaos and death the Jesuits and their masters the Catholics failed to stop His Word from culminating in the most accurate English translation in history, the 1611 Authorized Version, aka the King James Version. Just read it with a dictionary beside you if you ever have trouble with older words, its got all the context, all the old and eloquent meaningful words that mean more than our simplistic dumbed-down English, and you get the actual idea behind what the writers put to pen those millennia ago when they all wrote a coherent Book separate from each other without collaboration, somehow being a Book with proper meshing between books as if it was written by one person instead of, what, 44 writers I believe it was? All separated across many hundreds of years, thousands even from the start to the end. That's amazing, and not only that but the Bible has been used as a sort of Rosetta Stone for ancient cultures, like the Goths who we learned were a colorful people who wore clothes of many colors kind of like Joseph did.
@@EskChan19 Well, firstly, I don't expect you to understand what I mean by what you're listing is out of context, not only in the sense that you're mistaking commands at the time to mean commands now, but also before Jesus Christ. The wrath of God towards the brutal evils of this world had not been satisfied until the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ, after which the Father drew all towards Himself. Before that, however, God had allowed certain civilizations to exist for a time, given them chance after chance, until their wickedness had become so immense and perverted that they had become too dangerous to exist--I'm sure various folk today could think of such civilizations in our pasts. Secondly, not only are you misunderstanding what a "slave" is certain contexts, but you're also misinterpreting commands to be submissive to one's master to mean God is okay with slavery--that's simply not the case. What IS the case is that God wants us NOT to repay evil for evil and to bear the image of Christ and love, and part of that is to bear all things--being rebellious would simply go against that. While you're thinkibg about that, you should ask yourself why we even think slavery isn't okay. Also, not that it makes that big of a difference, but I think you mean Paul rather than Jesus urged a runaway slave to return to his master, because that sounds like you're referring to Onesimus (Philemon). Regardless, as it turns out, Onesimus himself played a crucial role in bringing his own master to Christ BECAUSE he returned.
God is a God of perfect love but also perfect justice. Unfortunately, because of our own perversity, God was unable to show that side of perfect love in its entirety (though many times, executing justice IS an act of love, which people today have forgotten)--it is only by his grace that we still exist as a race! That's why we needed Jesus to be that perfect sacrifice to cleanse the sin of the world so that the wrath of God towards evil could finally be satisfied. Now all that is left is simply accepting that he did that for you and giving your life to him, and he'll take care of the rest.😊
And of course, whether you believe me or not and are willing to have an open mind about it is totally up to you.😉
Here's my translation of the swedish lyrics, that also goes well with the melody. Let me know what you think.
I turn around to see my homestead fade away
I wish I could have stayed there, just another day
Not yet a man, though called to arms to do my part
Will I see my home again, I wish with all my heart
With kinsmen from my village I went out to war
In a world of flames
‘Cause war surely can, devastate a man
I give my life, for my motherland
But who’s missing me?
So see me as them
the husband and friend
the father and son, who’s never seen again
But who mourns over me?
Went out to war for Sweden, baptized in blood
No gallantry awaits us, dying in the mud
In fields where friends has fallen, there’ll be no songs
Our fate once more we challenge, and marching on
Far away from home
(To be baptized and die in war)
In a world of flames
‘Cause war surely can, devastate a man
I give my life, for my motherland
But who’s missing me?
So see me as them
the husband and friend
the father and son, who’s never seen again
But who mourns over me?
And when my time is finally here
Who’ll sing my song?
They’re fighting on
I hope to die without much fear
I fall asleep, and fade away
And never wake up
‘Cause war surely can, devastate a man
I give my life, for my motherland
But who’s missing me?
So see me as them
the husband and friend
the father and son, who’s never seen again
But who mourns over me?
not 100% sure
🤘🤘🤘

Sometimes I wonder if the world would've been better these days if the islamic world had gone through a similar experience. A lot of the instability in that region is caused by the sunni/shia rivalry. Maybe if they would've had a century or so to fight it out amongst themselves and come to the conclusion that it might be better to just tolerate each others different views of the same religion the region would be in much better shape right now. It seemed to work fine for Europe, although at a large cost of lives.
😊👍❤️🇸🇪
Try Primo victoria, Wolfpack and Caroleans prayer...
I will repeat my commentary from one of your previous videos.
Привет из Крыма;
Greetings from Crimea!
I was delighted with your reactions and would like to ask you to listen to another Sabaton song - Camouflage, this is their cover of a popular song from the nineties, telling about the meeting of a soldier lost in the Vietnamese jungle and a strange, but very big marine. And a second song i would request - Wolfpack, telling us a story about the convoy ON - 92, and a day when they was attacked by German group of U - Boats.
I am writing these down now
@@v3tReacts Thank you, i will wait for your next videos! You are a really Amazing person!
And now Europa is about to burn and bleed again. We humans never learn.
Rorkes Drift
marked down lol
You should react to lyrics video of Price of a Mile.
Im gonna make sure I havent reacted to it and if so It gets added to the History Reactions ;)
please tell me he watched the swedish version! If he is a veteran i would really see what he thinks unless its to painful.
i did :)
@@v3tReacts I don't remember writing that message I was probably quite drunk, haha! But thanks for answering!
Must say the lyrics in swedish is way better but then I'm Swedish 🤔😎
Actually you have a great ideal. And just do a whole Sabaton album over a few days and then go onto another. Wait to you get to the Last Stand Album
Thats what I am gonna try to start doing so that I can keep it on one subject.
In the name of God by Sabaton, please!
Its on the list somewhere ;)
you gotta watch this is Swedish live in Gothenburg with subtitles, the song is way better as is the video
I had watched the Swedish version a lil bit ago
so... there´s a war without greed? how? You should get something out of it right? why fight it otherwise?
I'd say Sabayon Forks Drift
LMAO
lol
I mea Formed Drift
now I know what you mean.
The swedish lyrics are completely different
I don't get the religion bit, outside of Russia (Orthodox), all the forces that Carolus Rex's Sweden faced where also Catholic, he wanted to form the Scandinavian Empire, so greed fits.
You are mistaking the 30 years war with the northern war. This video is about the 30 years war when Gustavus Adolfus was ruling sweeden. The war is between catholics and protestants. Basically they used religions as a way of controlling masses and other countries.
indeed it does!
I think you have missed this part In History class. The Protestants in Central Europe revolted against he Catholic Churches persecution of Protestants. Gustavus Adolphus, the Lion from the North, came to aid the Protestants.
During the great northern war, Denmark-Norway, Sachsen-Poland and Russia all declared war on the Swedish empire. It was not an aggression from the Swedish king. He did however go on a counter offensive after being attacked, and thus defeat Russia in the battle of Narva and later push the Poland and saxony out of Lithuania and Poland into saxony, forcing Augustus II to yield his throne.
The swedish version is so much metter, the lyics are not the same at all
I think you and back to school might like this sabaton song about WW1
th-cam.com/video/npcGVeQ2ijk/w-d-xo.html
Stupid auto correct
😂🤣 we have all been there.
I was confused as hell LMAO i marked this song down I think HAHAHA
I love your content, but arguably the Swedish fanaticism in the protestant religion and belief that our king was chosen by god, was what enabled our king to start wars. Religion and morality is not alone the answer, we must apply rationality when we apply our values so we can best follow them.
The Swedish version is much better. It's 1000 times better.
Nej tack originalet är mycket bättre
