Your ancestors died so that Sweden could become a socialist Islamic caliphate. How tragic and sad.

there are two versions of the song,.. a swedish and an english version, but both have different lyrics. The swedish one is sung from the perspective of a soldier, the english one is sung from the perspective of an outside observer. the swedish version you watched had captions so you could have had the lyrics. great reaction though ;)

Yeah I agree and as a Swede I think the caption is a much better translation of the Swedish lyrics than the English version and also has a much better flow

Me and my friend was in the crowd on the floor almost at front to the stage... I can just tell you...ive never had so much goosebumps in my entire life standing there singing this song. It was amazing.

It's really saddening that nobody remembers the Thirty Years War, the conflict the song is about. It killed somewhere between 1/2 and 2/3 of the ENTIRE population of the Holy Roman Empire. More people died in it than the Napoleonic Wars, and in proportional terms it was one of the most devastating wars in world history

In a way yes, though "A lifetime of war/En livstid i krig" is about grow up, live and die in a time of war is a bit different from most wars as this war lasted 30 years which is very long for a single war.

@@SayaViking for the story/history behind it, true enough. But in a broader sense, the two versions represent society in general, I think, no matter the date. Most people are always looking at the big picture in a given war; the battles, the tactics, the overall costs...which is A Lifetime of War. But very few, if any, look at the soldier as an individual...that is what En Livstid i Krig is shining a light on.

Song is about the 30 years war, lyrics are pretty emotional given it’s slow tempo. They do have an English version called “A lifetime of war” if you were curious.

Holy frikkin shite! One of the sickest things I've ever witnessed!:0. Stirs the soul

35 years old, going to my first live show in may 2022, Sabaton of course!

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? Artist: Sabaton Album: Carolux Rex (Swedish) Language: Swedish

Good translation, I would only make a few minor changes. Kinsmen is better for "fränder" rather than friends. I would use "fade away" instead of "pass away" as translation for tyna bort. And mourn and miss is switched in the chorus.

I've been in that audience and have sung those words several times (not at this particular show, but the Stockholm one and others). It is so, so powerful. Goosebumps, tears in eyes powerful. Every time. So awesome.

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?

That was my last concert before 2020 ruined Sweden Rock Festival. A whole bunch of awesomeness from Amaranthe, Apocalyptica and Sabaton during this show!

I was on that show.... Fantastic!

2:25 Mobile phones, and it felt epic. I was in the crowd singing along.

Greetings from sweden!!!! :D

Lights are constant, it just happened by accident for the camera to change focus a few times kind of in sync with the mood of the song, so it looks like lights are interactive. When a camera goes out of focus, the more luminous elements are more pronounced than in focus.

One of my fevorite Song ever

With the lack of festivals this summer you really NEED to react to Hardcore Superstars "You can't kill my rock n roll"

En Livstid e Krig. The Swedish cover of A lifetime of war. The 30 years war to be exact during the 1600s when King Gustav Adolph of Sweden invaded Catholic states of the Holy Roman Empire when the HRE tried to mess with Protestants. Sadly Gustav was killed during battle by a gunshot wound I believe. I say sadly because him and Carolus Rex are two fascinating kings at the time.

Its just our phone lights, it was a dope concert for sure 🤘

Great reaction to an amazing performance! The bands name is pronounced Sah-bah-ton.

Very great reaction:) Translate the text and it will be even more powerful song for your heart

If I interpret your light question correctly I am assuming you mean where it looks like the lights are changing brightness in unison? It's very subtle changes in the lighting on the crowd that gives it that appearance.

Joakim is a pretty chil gy and fun to take beers whit ^^ they was and playd on huse of metal here in my home town 2 of my freinds ho sit in wheelchare was there and watchs them they was liften up on stage and placed on the speakers during the rest of the performace just so they shuld see propely thats was nice of them ^^

Thank you!

Swedish metalband + Swedish metalheads = Match made in heaven...

If you by "the lights" refer to them appearing to be flashing I bet it's due to automatic diaphragm/shutter settings in the camera. It's not uncommon phenomenon when you have the ceiling spotlights leaking into the lens.
