I have been fan of Amaranthe for a a while, just recently got into Sabaton thanks to looking at some of your old vids. Sabaton's version is better, just has more emotion. Probably because they wrote the song and that type of story is what they do. But they are both incredible.

Personally, I didn't enjoy Amaranthe's cover of Sabaton's song. A little edit: Alvin York went into WW1 as a pacifist Christian. He refused to fight up until that machine gun nest killed his best friend. Then, he just started shooting.

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

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.

I love me some armaranthe but I'm also a die hard sabaton fan, so they get my vote. Also checkout "for whom the bell tolls" by both Metallica and sabaton

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.

Sabaton!!! Love these guys so much :)

I lost my shit when this started up at the concert I went to in Chicago last October. That whole concert was the epitome of hype.

If you haven't seen it, Sabaton has a second YT channel called Sabaton History where they go into the historical background of their songs, as well as the process of writing the song. And this Sabaton is the original version of this one.

A great song by both bands I can't choose it is a true story and it's cool two foreign bands did a song about it.

You have it right with the Sophie's Choice reference. I heard the Amaranthe version first... That's how I discovered Sabaton. I love both versions and I honestly can't answer who did it best.

It makes me SO HAPPY to see you having the exact same reaction to Sabaton that I always have lmao

This is my absolute favorite by Sabaton. I also heard the Amaranthe vetsion first and then I actually listened to the Sabaton original and I LOVE THIS BAND AND THIS SONG SO MUCH

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.

Sabaton is probably my favourite band out there, there's load of music you should check out haha, don't even know where to begin!
