    Inspiring! Alvin Cullum York (December 13, 1887 - September 2, 1964), also known as Sergeant York, was one of the most decorated United States Army soldiers of World War I. He received the Medal of Honor for leading an attack on a German machine gun nest, taking at least one machine gun, killing at least 25 enemy soldiers and capturing 132. York's Medal of Honor action occurred during the United States-led portion of the Meuse-Argonne Offensive in France, which was intended to breach the Hindenburg line and force the Germans to surrender. He earned decorations from several allied countries during WWI, including France, Italy and Montenegro. He later formed a charitable foundation to improve educational opportunities for children in rural Tennessee. In the 1930s and 1940s, York worked as a project superintendent for the Civilian Conservation Corps and managed construction of the Byrd Lake reservoir at Cumberland Mountain State Park, after which he served for several years as park superintendent

    Got to see them last year and it was so awesome. It was a small venue, not more than 700 people but some people in the balcony said that when everyone started jumping they could feel it up there.

    Well technically since you asked for the best 'cover' it was Amaranthe as Sabaton created the song I agree with you both absolutely are fire for different reasons. Sabaton crushes it, Amaranthe does the song proud - leave it there.

    This was how i became a Sabaton fan. I have been a fan of Amaranthe since the Nexus came out, so when they made a new single i january i had to hear it, and then i had to try the original, and now i have bought the 5 most recent albums. And i agree i can't choose either.

    Well, how about seeing these two bands together live, playing this song together?! 😄 They did just that, in Oslo, Norway earlier this year. It was the final show on Sabaton's European tour. I was there, right in front of the stage!!🤘 Amaranthe and Apocalyptica were touring with Sabaton. AWESOME SHOWS from all of them!! If you liked this song (original and cover), you'd love Sabaton's "Angels calling" feat. Apocalyptica. You won't regret it!

    I love both versions, but even though Sabaton is like my most played band and the banbd I've seen live more times than anyone else, I have to say I prefer AMaranthes cover on this one, simply because its more of a headbanger!

    I love this song from both bands but Amaranthe, to me, edges out Sabaton’s. I listen to it more often and enjoy it just a little more than Sabaton. And you need some more Amaranthe! For older songs: the nexus, drop dead cynical, amaranthine. And newer songs with current lineup: helix, GG6, The Cowntdown! 🤘🏾
