A History Lesson In Every Song | 3 Generation Reaction | Sabaton | 40:1

[@kingseb2252]

I recommand you watch sabaton history channel they go in depth about the history and a little about the song itself This song is about the battle of wizna where 720 polish soldiers (with no real anti tank equipment) held out for 3 days against the german army 40,000 strong with air support and hundreds of tanks captain reginis said he would face his fate there and after 3 days he ordered his men to surrender after running out of ammo but true to his word captain reginis killed himself by clutching a grenade in his command bunker

[@christoneymobile]

Watch 40:1 Live, Woodstock Poland ❤

[@drigerdranzer7514]

Oh yes. The energy and atmosphere is amazing.

[@ez0950]

yes! when I saw the description I had hoped that this was that. Cannot believe the buy me a coffee request didn't come with a link

[@Flokarl1]

If you want, Go check out/react to Sabatons legendatry concert Woodstock Poland . Where there were more than 600 000 in the crowd! Songs like "Uprising" or "Ghost Division" were among the best ones there. The concert was broadcasted LIVE in Polish television...as the area wasnt big enough for all fans I believe.

[@Northman-from-the-North]

The song "40:1" is a tribute to the heroes of the Battle of Wizna in September 1939, in which fewer than 600 Polish soldiers held off over 30 000 Nazi German soldiers for 3 days. The song's title "40:1" refers to the overwhelming odds of the battle and the lyrics tell the tale of the brave Polish soldiers defying the odds against them and ultimately prevailing. The chorus of the song encapsulates this message, with lyrics such as "Spirit of Spartans/ Death and glory/ Soldiers of Poland/Second to none/ Wrath of the Wehrmacht brought to a halt." Through the song, Sabaton shows tribute and respect for the Polish soldiers for their courage, bravery, and heroism in the face of such extreme odds. Great song, great reaction.

Niedokładnie. Bo 730 , a dokładnie 728 żołnierzom i nie żołnierzy, a funkcjonariuszom Korpusu Ochrony Pogranicza. Batalionu słabo uzbrojonych i raptem w cztery działa lekkie i kilka karabinów ppanc i maszynowych, przeciwko 42 tysiącom żołnierzy niemieckich wspartych czołgami, samolotami i dywizjom piechoty. Czy Termopile? Tak, ale po co?kapitan Raginis, mógł swoją wiedzą pomóc armii podziemnej, a nie honorowo i bez sensu zginąć. Sorry, ale dla mnie to bez sensu. 😮

[@Denozo88]

The Poles historically have been some of the best soldiers in Europe. They were a major part in holding the Ottomans back at the famous siege of Vienna. Plus holding the line against the Russian empire for centuries.

[@mjgFlati]

NORTHMAN , IT WAS ABOUT 736 POLISH AGAINST 46.000 GERMANS , YOU ARE A BIT OFF 🇵🇱✝️✡🇮🇱☦🕎🇵🇱

[@Denozo88]

@mjgFlati The numbers aren't exact fool. We have a rough idea. Best estimates put it at a 40:1 ratio.

[@mjgFlati]

[@bubee8123]

''SABATON - Uprising (Official Music Video)'' is a must watch after this one.

[@lorenzo_smit]

I recommend “The Red Baron” Animated story video” or “The First Soldier” Animated story video next.

[@danielkarlsson258]

"Uprising" live from Poland Woodstock next?

[@deadmanlnc2215]

Amazing reaction. I recommend Uprising at woodstock Poland

[@bubee8123]

For the first time, they have to watch the official music video to understand story better. But that was their best live performance because of the great audience.

[@michaelginnis521]

Im with grandma this band is AWESOME and I went to Their Concert and THEY ARE WORTH IT TO SEE THEM LIVE

[@DjKorppi]

In this video you see "Sabaton 1.0". In 2012 both guitarists and the drummer left the band. Fortunately, most of the songs are written by Pär (the bass player) and Joakim (the singer), who remained and were joined by other great musicians to continue the great work.

[@peterkensborn8035]

Noooo, you should have watched the 2012 official video... from the Polish Woodstock, really epic.... But a really good reaction anyway!!!

[@janusz4695]

And do you know, dear ladies, what they defended with their lives? Because it was far from their family there. Children and wives. Maybe you don't understand it, but for Poles, defending women is the highest value. Because women give us life. And we appreciate you for that. You and our children are more important.

[@fredrikviking5250]

The Battle of Wizna was fought between 7 and 10 September 1939 between the forces of Poland and Germany during the initial stages of the invasion of Poland, which marked the beginning of World War II in Europe. According to Polish historian Leszek Moczulski, between 350 and 720 Poles defended a fortified line for three days against more than 40,000 Germans. [1] Although defeat was inevitable, the Polish defense halted the attacking forces for three days and postponed the encirclement of the independent operative....

it is par and joakim who writes the lyrics and all the band the music . thanks for god comments from denmark

Great reaction! If you havent already you might want to check out the Sabaton History channel. They explain the history behind the songs.

The hiatory on this song is what made my fevorty sabatonsong

[@tonyolsson4376]

Nice reaction! As many people have and probably will mention is that this song live should be from the 2012 Woodstock in Poland version. Here is a link to a video from there just to show how amped up the group went through their musical journey. Take care and hugs to everyone. kzbin.info/www/bejne/oorOl4Wwd9Osmrc

[@Drescher1984]

This a old lineup without Hannes and Tommy, Tommy whom have just recently announced his departure from Sabaton to focus on solo singing career.

[@fenrisulfur842]

This Song made Sabaton Demigods in Poland. In the history channel they tell the story when they performed in Poland, and a Bishop came to them and gave them his blessing

[@erikthompson619]

You mentioned the drummer ... well, this was not their current drummer Hannes Van Dahl (A.K.A. the loving and suitably tall husband of Floor Jansen and father of their two presumably future titanic children), but Daniel Mullback, part of the, so far, longest lasting Sabaton lineup from 2001-2012. Very unexpectedly, four out of six members of Sabaton collectively jumped ship following the recording, but prior to the release, of the 2012 "Carolus Rex" album. Only singer and sole songwriter Joakim Brodén and bassist Pär Sundström remained to recruit new members - one of them being Hannes, who had only recently had his major break as a member of Evergrey, another major force on the Swedish metal scene. Thankfully, and as you may have noticed, this overhaul of lineup did not impede the band's momentum in the slightest. On the contrary, "Carolus Rex" promoted Sabaton from very popular to certified rockstars in their native Sweden, and internationally their career has just kept on soaring ever higher with every subsequent release. Their lineup has remained MOSTLY stable since then: the only exception being one of the two guitarist posts, that has been vacated not once but now twice, with the recent departure of Tommy Johansson - who understandably felt the need to focus on his other band Majestica, where he is both the songwriter and singer, rather than Sabaton, where for obvious reasons he was neither.

[@alancarter41]

To date, all of the band changes in Sabaton have been amicable partings. The 2012 breakup was due to the leaving members wanting to tour less, and they formed the band Civil War, which also using history themes for their music (you should check out their song "Rome is Falling" or their songs about the American Civil War). Others left due to family issues. The fact is the heart of Sabaton is Joakim (who write almost all the music) and Par (who handles the business side and co-writes the lyrics with Joakim). As long as they stay committed to the band, Sabaton will go on producing great music since there will always be exceptional musicians wanting to join the band. BTW, if you check the Sabaton blogs, they have a cool video showing Hannes auditioning with his interesting story about how he ended up with his current name.

[@birrextio6544]

I don't think they read any comments on youtube, they never show any signs of taking in the feedback.

[@altolario82]

Joakim did a duet with the band Nanowar of Steel from Italy. Their lyrics are really hilarious but the quality of their music is unreal. Recommending "Pasadena 1994", "Norwegian Reggaeton", "Chupacabra Cadabra", "And then I noticed that she was a gargoyle", "Giorgio Mastrota", "Valhalleluja"

[@patrichagstedt4256]

Thanks from sweden on your reaction 😍🤟🤟

[@KathyLuluandDonna]

Thank you too!

[@SuperSupermanpunch]

Good reactions girl's 🎉🎉 But you should have done their live version 40:1 in woodstock Poland 🤪

[@torpitsanas9010]

Pär(bass player) and Joakim(singer). This song is from 2008 released album. Tell about Battle of Wizna (WW2) in Poland vhere Polos were unnumbered 40:1, but manage hold Germans 3 days. Some recommends Uprising(live Woodstock 2012 Poland) song about Warsaw city uprising against Germans in WW2 or Great War(live Wacken 2019)

[@shinkwanghyeon1535]

Night Witches and Resist and Bite are a couple of my favorites

[@SireGrailknight]

That rolling R is kinda how we say R in swedish, (except for some southern accents here).

[@jonask9641]

Sabaton "Swedish Pagans" is a great song you should listen to 👍

[@christoneymobile]

I can't wait for your first Sabaton "Double Header" with the History and the song all in one tidy package. Yes, these do make for long videos, but we don't mind! I would recommend "Ghost in the Trenches" for this, truly AWESOME story. And if you are looking for US Military history, there's "82nd All the Way", "Screaming Eagles", "Devil Dogs", "To Hell and Back", and several more; this is just a starter list.

[@conradamber]

Really love your reactions! specifially for Sabaton, i'd love to see you react to one of their video's on their sabaton history channel. Pick any one about the songs you've already seen. It will blow your mind to hear the backstory behind every song.

[@davidknox1400]

Thx guys loved it! Rock on🤘

[@FemaleSniper86]

Have to point out that Sabaton has changed the band members over time, and the drummer you are refferring to wishing to see more is most likely Hannes, the current drummer, which is not the drummer in this video. You did see him on that tank in "En Livstid i Krig" and "1916". Btw, Tommy is leaving Sabaton for his own band, so soon there will be yet another guitarrist. But our Chris is still in the band, thankfully :) Maybe now people will remember him again, coz he is also amazing.

[@ML_SE]

The first September 1939 Germany started their war against Poland and it was the start of WW2. This song is about the battle of Wizna six days later when the Polish soldiers was outnumbered with over 40:1 but they held the ground for three days. Some argues that it was only 350 Polish soldiers against more than 40 000 Germans. 🤓🇸🇪

[@Spasmaticus]

Greetings from Sweden, I'd recommend you one of their earlier works called "The hammer has fallen".

[@clashof6d]

White death sabaton history version, probably the 2nd best sabaton history episode

[@Kickenwing13]

So that song was about Poland's last stand before the Nazis inevitably took them over. There is a very cool video from a festival in Poland when they play that song the energy is amazing.

[@tomaszzaraza9971]

By the accent of people shouting I'm guessing this was from Poland. well would be fitting since a story is about Poland, too. and now i realised it was in Poland. as for the drummer, you mean Floor's husband ;) by the way they are on US tour this year

I have a slight gripe with a small part of this song. The way Joakim pronounces the word "buried" in the "... buried in history." part of the lyrics. Sounds so weird. And it's obviously incorrect too. Small thing to be annoyed by perhaps but I still am ^^
