A tremendous tribute to both Lemmy and all the soldiers who went off to fight, and sometimes die, for their homelands. Lemmy wrote '1916' after watching a documentary on the 1916 Battle of the Somme during which a veteran of the battle broke down in tears talking about holding his best friend in his arms as he died. Another song that just rips your heart out, and Tina Guo's cello at the end evokes such a feeling of sadness. The call backs to Sabaton songs were nice easter eggs. RIP Lemmy, and all those who died defending their homeland. You are missed and appreciated. great reaction, stay safe, keep rocking.

Like how they had Floor sing during the credits of Christmas Truce, that's cellist Tina Guo playing during these credits. She has joined them onstage at Wacken and is in their Steel Commanders video.

I've had the pleasure of having a world War 2 bomber pilot as a close friend whom died 9 years ago at the age of 94. A true hero I always thought and loved the time spent with him having our Tim Hortons coffee. He was my grandfather in law and flew a Lancaster on d day. God bless you man.

Thanks! You really put yourself into this one. 1916 by Motörhead is possibly the best anti-war song I've heard, and Sabaton really do it justice. It's also amazing to have an anti-war song that's so respectful to the people who paid the price. I've seen several combat veterans react to this and there's not a single "it's not like that" comment anywhere.

@@josephcoffey7013 : My gut feeling is that they are becoming more and more critical with age. The lyricists have dug into war history as their job for years and years now, and the overall tune is heading more and more toward "glory is ephemeral, suffering is guaranteed". But of course their last albums have revolved around WW1 which hardly had any point, yet broke all records in on how bloody and cruel a war can be. This way or that way, if you watch official videos for Christmas Truce and 1916, it's hard to come out with a feeling that "we should strive to have more of this".

More than anyone I know, Sabaton conveys the respect for the common soldier, for the sacrifice that so many made that we can be free. So few people today remember, so few appreciate what they did. Sabaton's music helps. people who never thought about that, start thinking and learning. May they make music for many years yet... thanks for the reactin man. Great as always.

I watched this on my way to work the other day. Be me, a grown man, on a public bus holding back tears. Was a big funny now that I think about it. But I could tell this hit you pretty hard. I could only imagine what it's like to lose someone in a time of war, especially if it's one of your brothers in arms, you train together, you fight together, and you die together. And only a few people will remember your name, but millions will remember your sacrifice. Over a hundred years later, it still burns to think about all the young men who fought and died in the great war. I always think of the line "the war will be over by Christmas" and all the men, and boys, young boys who said to their families they'll be home in a couple weeks to only be back years later, many of them in boxes. The pain that many families must have felt after the war, losing their sons, brothers, father's, cousins, uncles, close friends, I don't think I could manage, it would break me.

Sabaton is really great at drawing out the raw emotions in their music. Whether its pride or sorrow, hope or despair, they're really great at making music MOVE you to your core.

Hit me very deep as well. When my father passed away 7 years ago, I learned details about his WW II service that were astounding. My folks were both born in Germany. Knew Dad got conscribed into the German Army young, but didn’t know he was not quite 14 when they shoved a gun in his hands and threw him at the front! How he fought through nearly 4 years of war, from foot soldier to pilot, is an incredible tale, and a miracle that he lived, and kept his frostbitten feet! So many boys he knew were like the teenagers in this song, dying on some battlefield in some country, never to see their mothers again. Surviving after in a war-torn, defeated country is a whole other hair-raising story! Sabaton really did this justice, with respect and reverence for the sacrifices so many young men, and families, made. The cello and end credits are almost like a prayer to them 💔❤️‍🩹.

Too many don’t understand that respecting the sacrifices made in the past is not the same thing as glamorizing war. No one wants peace more than a soldier who has had a taste of war.

I was a weapons loader on F16s and I agree 100% about the ordinance. Its indescribable. Every time I hear this brings a tear.

One thing I truly love about Sabaton is how they always credits the crews and people behind them. In almost every video they don't only name director and producer but extras, catering and set builders. They are very generous with praise and seem genuinely nice people. On top of that they're pretty great to listen to and see live...hard to beat combination 🙂 A song "howitzer" had me laughing out loud! About Joakim's singing...I love it and I think most if not all Sabaton fans agree, but if you ask him, he didn't audition for the band as a singer but a keyboard player. He introduced some songs he'd written and had to sing them to the band and then it stuck. He always claims he's not a singer but by god, the man can emote!

Sabatons music videos reminds me of the first time i saw band of brothers, how i thought i could feel with the soldiers they are portraying. You never can unless you actually are there, but it FEELS like you can with sabaton!

Great reaction. Thank you for opening up. I think that was very brave to put in your deep personal thoughts. Been following Sabaton for a long time now and I love how they evolved from songs that more or less state historical facts to more personal stories and showing humanity. Keep doing what you're doing !

And this comes out soon before our ANZAC day on the 25th, will be playing this and many other Sabaton songs on ANZAC day. Lest we forget everyone.

Thank you for your service, sir. To all those others too. Everyone who did and everyone who never did come home.. we’ll never forget.

I saw Sabaton for the first time in NYC. Before they split with the original memers, since then, I never missed a Sabaton concert in the big apple, saw them with Nightwish and Epica in different tours, and the Heaviest was with Kreator opening for Sabaton. 🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘

Everyone who has ever served, anywhere, for any country, have a brotherhood with everyone else who has taken an oath to stand the line to the death if need be, to protect those behind them. Songs like 1916 strike a nerve because it reminds us of our brothers who fell so tragically such as at the battle of the Somme.

An epically tragic song that stirs up so much emotion. Oh to be young again.

I'm 25 with a 17 year old brother. This song hits me hard. I cannot imagine the type of horror a kid would feel being in that carnage.

From your reaction to the phrases "it wasn't my fault, and I wasn't to blame" I know it was an authentic reaction. I didn't see my face but I think my first reaction was the same (Sorry for my poor English)

There is a reason for Sabaton being my favorite band. My wife bought me a ticket for wembley concert in April. Best gift I've ever got in my life. What Sabaton can put together is unbelievable. Depth of their songs is incredible. Love them. Not everyone understand/cares about past wars and whatnot but Sabaton is doing the best possible job reminding people what was all that about and we should be glad for all sacrifices that were made back then to be able to live the life we do right now.

Just back at hotel from seeing them in Glasgow. They were awesome and this song was amazing live.

You had a very good reaction, well done sir. One reason I like Sabaton so much is that all their songs are about others and never about themselves: the sing about soldiers, about valor and about duty. They never sing about themselves, about their own prowess or try to set some kind of egotistical tone. Many bands (metal, rock, others) have songs that seem to project about themselves. That's not Sabaton.

First off moving and appropriate tribute. Moments like the Battle of The Somme showed the callousness of the leadership for human life. Yes, sacrifice is necessary if our way of life is to continue, but you can't betray the troops faith casually as leadership on all sides did in WW1. Lemmy didn't let us forget that, and Sabaton won't either. Great reaction and I respect how you don't trivialize your own service. You shouldn't, I have mad respect for it.

3. You got to hear Tina Guo's performance at the end of the video. / B.

The average age of a British soldier on the Somme was 26 years and two months. The youngest known soldier to fight in the battle is believed to have been Sidney Lewis, who was only 13. The youngest British soldier killed in the battle is believed to have been 15. The oldest British soldier to die on the Somme was 68. At the end of the Accrington Pals' first major action - on the first day of the Battle of the Somme - at least 584 of the 720 troops who took part were killed, wounded or missing. Pte William Marshall, who survived the fighting, recalled many were "killed and wounded even before they could get out of their trenches"

I saw Sabaton live a couple years ago. Their whole vibe on stage is amazing and their fans are absolutely rabid supporters of the band. As a veteran I found myself sometimes being a bit dismissive of bands that have songs about war and strife- knowing most of them have never had a job other than being in a band, much less experience with the topics they sing about. Like a guy singing songs about the pain of childbirth. Too many metal bands rely on edgy topics like war, oppression, genocide, etc for content simply because power metal about attending the PTA meeting probably won't sell. It's a trope in metal so you can't even blame the bands. Sabaton convinced me they come from a place of admiration and respect. Especially about the sacrifices of soldiers more than just the roar of the guns and the glory of a flag. I think bands like 5 Finger Death Punch (and virtually all country musicians) came off as simply pandering for popularity by being loudly pro-military. Sabaton achieves an authenticity that gets them past the velvet ropes of being taken seriously.

Thanx to Lemmy for the hard hitting words and the original song and thanx to Sabaton for bringing it up again. I've watched this video many times already: As reaction video or "just" the video and it get's me every time. -------------- "Motorhead frontman Lemmy Kilmister wrote this song after watching a UK television program about the 1916 Battle of the Somme on which a veteran reminisced about his friend dying in his arms with half his face blown off. "It came to me in a flash," he said. "The old guy is 88 all something, and he's still in tears about it. He walked through 25 feet of muddy s--t into the teeth of machine gun fire, all for nothing: 19,000 Englishmen killed before. Think! All those lives. And some bastard on a white horse probably got a medal for it too. You can imagine the bastards can't you? Back at the club." www.songfacts.com/facts/motorhead/1916
