You sir, have just made us laugh uncontrollably!!! Thank you!

Sabaton's drummer is married to Floor Jansen (yes, yes, that Floor Jansen), just in case you needed to know :-)

With Sabaton, I learned more about War-History then in school.

as a german we learn much about history mostly bc of our past but i fell in love with sabaton bc they show not only one side they show "the bad guys" beeing good too and they tell story of "normal" persons doing there best to do the right thing or what they believe do to be right thing

I appreciate how they honor those whom have fought for their nations. Without mention of the ideology of the respective governments. Fighting men are fighting men no matter what their origin.

Sabaton's guitarist Tommy Johansson has his own group Majestica. I'm thinking you'd really enjoy Above the Sky from them.

A big yes to both!

I love this music video because in the beginning you can hear the british radio report on Bismarck destroying the Hood and being pursued, and for the longest time i thought the captain was the survivor depicted in the video but no, that is the son of the last living survivor of the Bismarck that died a year before the video was released, and all the war memorabilia you can see in his cabin, when Joakim asks him about the boat, belonged to him. And the video really accurately depicts the actual events, the lucky outdated biplane torpedo hit that jammed the rudder and forced the Bismarck to stand and fight, how the bridge was hit and the officers killed and how it was finished off by ship launched torpedos. But a video that really has a billion million historical and cultural references is Rammstein's Deutschland and everytime i watch it and/or scroll the comments i find a new reference or nod to something in Germany's past.

Two historical notes: 1) some of the lyrics are the (translated) quotes from Otto von Bismarck, the German leader for whom the ship was named. 2) inside the compass that the older man was checking at the end are the longitude & latitude coordinates of where the Bismarck went down. These guys pay real attention to the history behind their songs.

quick note, they found all the torpedo walls and all of them were intact, the allies did not sink it, the crew scuttle it so enemy did not get it

I believe there were some different stuff that collided when they wrote the song. First there were some suggestions to them. They have this history channel where they also take suggestions about themes to sing about. One of them was about Bismarck and the war of the atlantic. For some years they had attended some gamecon (or something?) representing Wargaming who at that time were heavy on World of tanks. This time they asked if they had some song they could use to promote their newer game World of warships. Sabaton and especially Joakim deicided to take on the history, so the song was born and WG who at the time had a fantastic CGI department did do this. So when it was released it was put out on both Sabaton and WOWS KZread page. Since i play the game... Yeah.

I have heard, read etc..that in the beginning as the band are climbing the steps of the building you see a pair of swinging legs..legend has it that is Floor Jansen...

Thank War Gaming the makers of the Video game (World of Warships) for their collaboration with Sabaton in the making of this video ..great game if you into Naval Historic Warships doing battle on the high seas..

Really good songs from Sabaton is "En livstid i krig" live with YT caption turned on. "Night Witches" long animated story version from yarn hub. "No bullets fly" animated story from yarn hub. But of cause I stand by my previous request Versailles - Masquerade ( m.kzread.info/dash/bejne/oJ11zsGpkbHYmJM.html ). This Japanese band just brings a unique sound to metal that I my self was trying to achieve before I found out about them.

Inside the compass that the captain of the modern boat has - the one retrieved from the Bismarck's captain by the young German sailor - are inscribed the coordinates of the final resting place of the Bismarck. Some of the song's lyrics are quotes from Otto von Bismarck himself. That shows you how much attention they paid to details in this song and video.

"En Livstid I Krig" (A lifetime of war) Live in Gothenburg (switch on captions) Any rock musicians dream gig! 👍😎

Finally guys.....topp 3 track with Sabaton , my opinion....🇸🇪 And now screaming Eagles, officell video... 👍

Hi, great reaction. You know Tommy, one of the guitarist of Sabaton has his own band called Majestica where he both play the guitar and do the vocals. And belive me, he have an extremely good voice. Check out Majesticas song "Above The Sky" and you will be surprised.

heard him step in for Joakim in some vids from last years 2 festivals they did in France ( i think) the took a place from i believe Manowar who didnt show up because of some silly reason

One of our neighbors who died years ago was a survivor of the Bismarck he was pretty miserable the rest of his days. Poor soul.😢

Since Sabaton did a song about the Bismarck, next up they need to do one about the other monster battleship of WWII . . . the Yamato.

Thank you to World of Warships for creating the amazing battle scene for this video. All the ships and fighting were created using CGI, then used Live Action actors placed into the scene. This is just one example of some of World of Warship's amazing battle scenes they can make. BTW- World of Warships is a free to play warship game. You can see more of the Bismarck in their mini documentary too called Naval Legends. kzread.info/dash/bejne/aX9tpKyhnNeWqtI.html

You gotta love Harry's "little girl anticipation". Yelling "I love this song so much" at the start of the song .. Before it even started, and all you see and hear are 2 cars driving through a small Norwegian fishing town :P

Every time I hear it I have chills, plus its a great song.

Despite all assertions, the Bismarck did not sink due to the enemy fire (Torpedoes and shells). She was a burning wreck, but she did not sink until the captain himself gave order to open the water-valves and causing the sinking. He did it because of the hopeless situation and the fact that Bismarck's guns were destroyed or ran out of ammo. The ship should not get into enemy hands too.

YESSSSSS... ive been waiting for this one. great video.

There are so many small details here that unless u dive deep into history u wont fully understand the importance of them. A few examples is the perfect depiction of what the Bismarck looked like aswell as they actually showed its battle vs the British HMS Hood at 4:30. The big gap betwinn the smoke stacks is what gives it away and was a unique feature so the ship could carry a spotter plane. At 4:53 the allies are hunting the Bismarck down as it tries to reach the French coast to receive cover from the German airforce. They even show what is historicly belived to have been the true kill shot that sealed the Bismarcks fate at 5:10. That torpedo hit destroyed the rodder on the ship causing it to sail in 1 big circle and for the next 5h British ships shelled it nonestop but it still wouldent sink. Even with British destroyers sending torpedos at it its historicly believed that the Admiral on the Bismarck desided to scuttle the ship himself by ordering various latches and doors along the hull to be opened. Its belived this becouse of how the ship reportedly sank, it for the most part sank straight down and not the typical way where 1 end of the ship raises out of the water or the ship totally flips over. The ship eventually did flip over while almost completely underwater we know this becouse the 4 main turrets are not attatched to the ship itself so at some point underwater it flipped over and the turrets came lose and the ship flipped back again before settling itself on the sea floor. They even show what is likly to be 1 of the turrets coming lose at 7:45

The Bismarck was apart of the 2 Bismarck class Battleships and the flag ship of the German Navy (Kriegsmarine). The Bismarck was launched on February 14th 1939 and was tasked with sinking merchant ships from the U.S with other German vessels such as Prinz Eugen, Scharnhorst and Gneisenau. in 1941 the Bismarck left Norway by hiding in the Norwegian fjords, a Norwegian reconnaissance plane spotted the Bismarck and let the British admiralty know of the ships existence. The Bismarck left port along with the Prinz Eugen and was planned to go through the Denmark Straight however the Danish resistance notified the British navy and had 2 light cruisers shadow the Bismarck and Prinz Eugen, the British now knowing Bismarcks existence and now knows where they're going decided to intercept the 2 German ships with HMS Hood and HMS Prince of Wales. The Battle of the Denmark Straight lasted around 10 minutes with the royal navy taking a devastating loss, one of Bismarck's 380mm shells hit the ammunition magazine inside HMS Hood which caused a massive explosion leaving the ship to split in 2 and sink rapidly. After Sinking HMS Hood both German ships focused on HMS Prince of Wales and she started to sale in the same spot as Hood was but managed to slip away thanks to a smoke screen but not without taking heavy damage from both ships. After the sinking of HMS Hood and word got out to the British public Winston Churchill ordered every ship available to sink the Bismarck at all costs, the Royal Navy called many different ships from around the world to help sink the Bismarck, one of these was Force H which had HMS Renown, HMS Resolution, HMS Eagle and HMS Ark Royal. HMS Ark Royal was tasked to launch Swordfish Torpedo bombers to sink the German ships but after many failed attempts and almost sinking some of their own ships they managed to find the Bismarck and drop their torpedoes but most missed except 1 which damaged the rudder while the Bismarck was doing evasive manoeuvres to avoid the torpedoes which has now caused the Bismarck to go in circles and go in a spiritic path. Once the Germans realized they can't fix the rudder they radioed Berlin and said "Ship Disabled we will fight till the last shell long live the Fuhrer". Once the Royal navy caught up with the Bismarck they fired everything they had, even a Polish ship was involved in the Battle and ignored orders to stay in formation and got so close to the Bismarck they flashed the Bismarck with a message saying "I am a Pol" and started firing everything including the machine guns. After a good solid 20 minutes of shelling the Bismarck all the German ships guns were destroyed and the crew was jumping into the water, once the British navy started to run low on ammo and fuel they decided to torpedo the Bismarck and pick up any survivors before heading home. HMS Dorsetshire launched torpedoes into the Bismarck (which didn't do anything) and the Bismarck slipped under the waves thanks to the German crew scuttling him to prevent capture. out of 2,221 men who served on the Bismarck only 114 and 1 cat survived the sinking of the Bismarck. But you can also go to the Sabaton History Channel that talks about the Bismarck in much greater detail than me.

Thanks for sharing your re reaction with us . Hope you guys are staying safe down there take care n be careful .

I remember this video....it is a great song....👍

Bismarck: Lead his way across the Sea "Sabaton starts to play music" Bismark: FU*K В Остальном обожаю эту группу, как и ваш канал с реакциями. I wish you only a good.

WOW!!! I agree what a great song, great reaction keep on rockin 🤟

A great song and an epic video. I have been told, but not been able to get it confirmed. The german sailor being picked up from the water is the last survivor of Bismarck. He died the year before they released this video. And the skipper on the boat Sabaton is playing on is his grandson. :) I recommend you to listen to another Swedish band. Orbit Culture. There is many bands they sound like but I think that if Metalica would have started now as a band.. this might be what they would sound like. They are releasing a new EP in a few days but I recomend you to listen first to saw and work your way from that one. If you just want to hear one song.. then I would recommend “the shadowing” live studio version. You guys will love it! I guarantee. ❤️ from 🇸🇪

Beautiful guitar solo

Excellent work guys, as always! 🤘🤘

HE WAS MADE TO RULE THE WAVES ACROSS THE SEVEN SEAS

Fun fact: they worked with the creators of the world of warships game for this video. the company did 3d scans of the ships at the bottom of the sea to make it as accurate as possible.

Brilliant reaction to my favourite band Sabaton with there song Bismarck. I love military history and metal so Sabaton to me are the greatest band on the planet. All there songs are not only educational but give you so many emotions, from No Bullets Fly which is very emotional to Swedish Pagans which is a song that makes you join in and makes you want to be a Swedish Viking. Everything about Sabaton is just perfect. Keep up the great work with your reactions, you two are brilliant. Take care and stay safe. 💂‍♂️💂‍♂️💂‍♂️💂‍♂️🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇸🇪🇿🇦

Great reaction! (even if though you knew the song.. 😉) Check out Majestica "Above the sky" (official music video). Tommy Johansson ( guitar solo player) is lead singer. Prepare for a surprise!😉 Greetings from Sweden!🇸🇪

There's so much history in this song... Especially the first part of the video, where the battleship 'Hood' is downed (not fully historically correct, it was hit by another german ship after orders from bismarck), and then the torpedos from the planes hitting the rudder of the Bismarck making it a sitting duck. Also really good to see the acknowledgment of all soldiers who lost their lives, who are just following orders, regardless of origin. And of course... ridiculously good music :)

There was no other ship than Bismarck and Prinz Eugen. However, the 203mm shells of the Prinz Eugen could not penetrate the Hood's armour. Therefore it was Bismarck's takedown.

Hi, I love your videos so much Harry's musical knowledge is Sharlene's passion and quality music your love for you is impressive. More good luck to you

The memorabilia and compass belonged to the last survivor of Bismarck - he died 1 year before this released. His son is the fishing boat skipper.

Did y'all catch the pocket watch throughout the vid? A story in a story...

Ty for reacting to Band Maid and Sabaton . Two of the best ....

The boat is named after one of their early songs, Primo Victoria, which is about the march towards Berlin in WW2. Well worth a listen!

Yes🤗🤗🤗

You have to listen to Five Finger Death Punch. "Wrong side of Heaven" Heartbreaking so good !!

The video is very accurate to what really happened. Bismarck hit once - and blew up the HMS Hood (only three survived). After the hunt Bismarck had been hit by 400 shells, a bit more than hundred survived.

Recommend 2 epic songs... Angel's Calling ft Apocalyptica, official video for epic solos En livstid i krig live Gothenburg (in Swedish so put caps on)

lyrics in this song is best I ever heard, story is kinda sad though, but boy, the lyrics

Im with ya ive heard 100 times and still get chills if they were in history class i would paid attention

Another band from Sweden you should know about is Soen. Their song, "Opal" is excellent.

As always, really enjoyed your reaction! Small suggestion for Your next Sabaton experience. They have this guy in Russia "Radio Tapok" who has made several covers (in Russian) of Sabaton songs, then he made a sabaton inspired song "Defence of Moscow", Sabaton being awesome returned the favour and made a cover of his original and it is quite good! kzread.info/dash/bejne/a4ieusOnfM3WhLg.html Cheers from Sweden

Best channel ever!

Did you listen sabaton livstid i krig Live performance? If not, check it out and turn on subtitles if you dont speak swedish...

Go to a Sabaton gig and you will have more fun than at any other gig you have been to, they are so good!

This one and the last stand(the 189, the swizz guards) are my favorite

Can't believe you took long time to check out this song. React to Sabaton-82 and the way live the Great Tour. They played it with Amaranthe.

Sabaton is one of those bands that could translate quite well to a low brass plus tenor sax band lead vocals on euphonium lead guitar on tenor sax

When you have a song about a battleship that fought til its guns could no longer fire every other metal band just goes home.

Världens bästa band någonsin! The guitar solos are straight up audioporn.

also keep in mind that joakim only does the "german smith"-thing when he's singing a german songs.

Yeah cool. They always nailed. By the way if you planned to go back to Lovebites go check the song We the United until is not taken down. The song is last from the concert Five of a kind in Zepp Diversity Tokyo. Expect unexpected. Enjoy it.

Don.t miss the compass in the old mans hand and in the survivors hand ...... that. another layer in the video

I mean, it's more on the "poppy" side of Metal but it is such a powerful and well made song *edit* btw, iirc that captain of their boat is the son of the dude that put the coordinates on the watch. Or the one that was saved? i cant remember but he has some direct relation to the Bismarck. Died a few years ago, shortly after they released that Clip.

This made me sub beacause u guys are so Awesome by doing good Sabaton reation :)ok that was the lame version :). I subbed because you agrue so awesome plus you are very down to earth :). Big hug from Sweden.

You can also check out their new song Defense of Moscow, so epic

A metal song about a ship? That must've been Loudness - The Battleship Musashi?

The ship namn is primo Victoria… look at the song namn in Woodstock live 🤟

Bismarck was definitely at fault. It was attacked in retaliation for sinking HMS Hood. The Captain gave the order to scuttle rather than let it fall into British hands, but it is said (by experts) that it would eventually have sunk.

You know the battleship name is Bismarck

Sabaton. No Bullets Fly Yarnhub animated version.

To this day, there is a not irrelevant amount of debate as to the cause of Bismarck's sinking. We know her crews scuttled her, and I will call Bismarck her till the end even though her captain called her male, but did the Brits actually do enough damage to actually cause it and the germans just sped it up? Or was she functionally fine, other than being unable to not go in circles which was potentially fixable if she wasn't in the middle of an active battlefield.

I have said this before and I am going to say it again. If history class had been more musical I would have paid WAY more attention.

Check Out.Sabaton Defence of Moscow (Offical Musik Video)

The swordfish pilot who seemed disappointed that his torpedo missed, turned out - he had hit the rudder crippling the Bismarck - noticing this, the Navy went after it, sinking it a Norwegian Fjord - there is also some evidence to suggest it was scuttled as well.
