Horrible Histories Joan Of Arc Song

[@elizabethbellauthor]

I cannot thank you enough for posting this (and any other Series 5 clips, hint hint). I live in the blighted colonies where we cannot get Horrible Histories any other way but KZbin!

Really fantastic stuff from Martha .... very good production. Clever stuff.

You're guilty of hearsay! and wearing men's trousers. Most epic line in the song!

Martha's hair is really nice in the first few shots with that colour and length

[@javannagtegaal7073]

Love this song

[@HawkFest]

That's true. What you're missing though is that the English thought she died after they struck her (as many of her companions, right after the arrow got her, thought she could), they were quite sure about this, which played along the perception of some miraculous healing.

[@emppumamma]

The "historyteachers" do the same, actually! If you like these songs, I suggest you check them out too. They are not professionals, but still really good.

[@kgs42]

Fabulous direction - brilliant Martha. HH untimely ended at the height of its powers. I place a curse on Terry Deary.

[@amlawhell5568]

LOVE it!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[@harrietlittle6356]

I love price tag and the lyrics they come up with are clever

[@PenguinSlime]

Firstly: I am not a Catholic, so her sainthood and martyrdom are invalid to me, but-as being in Christendom-her heresy. Secondly: I never said it was an immediate happening. I realise these events were years apart, but that stops not their happening and relevance. Secondly, Part B: Though His Majesty James VI & I brought an Union to the Monarchs, the Thrones were not unified, until the Acts of Union 1707 between Scotland and England, with the reign of Her Majesty, Queen Anne.

A) They were two brothers named Bureau, B) It's spelled 'cannon" and C) the technology was available as early as Crecy; it was the spiritual will to prevail that was lacking until Joan arrived

Joan of Arc, best military commander since William the conqueror.

[@rypluch]

[@Retarior]

rypluch Yep, she might actuaely die in Bohemia if she managed to join that crusade :-D.

[@zoetropo1]

Joan of Arc didn't raise and equip an army on her own: she had rich and powerful backers in the Duchy of Lorraine and Charles VII's mother-in-law Yolande of Aragon. The Hundred Years' War began as the Breton War of Succession, which dragged in both England and France. Once that was resolved, England began to conquer France, with the support of Brittany and Burgundy to flank the French from the west and east. Thus it was a strategic error when the English offended Arthur III of Richemont, the legitimate Duke of Brittany. Arthur was captured at Agincourt in 1415 but was ransomed (the Bretons had deep pockets) and in 1429 he fought beside Joan of Arc at Patay. In 1435, Arthur's diplomacy at the Congress of Arras reconciled France with Burgundy. In 1450, the English army in Normandy were crushing the French at Formigny when the Breton cavalry under Arthur's command arrived and wiped the English out; in 1453 they administered the coup de grace at the battle of Castillon in Gascony, definitively ending the war. Others also deserve credit. Jean de Brosse spent his own fortune to create an army to help the uncrowned French King . When Joan was captured, it's true that Charles did little to help, so Jean de Brosse sold his family silver to raise another army to rescue her, but the English sneakily moved her just before de Brosse's army got there. In 1433, de Brosse died bankrupt and was threatened with a pauper's grave, which shamed Charles into intervening to ensure a decent burial, but he still left de Brosse's family in poverty. Nicole de Chatillon, a wealthy Breton heiress, married de Brosse's son in 1437, so restoring the family's fortunes. (Incidentally, the French ambassador in Shakespeare's "King John" is named Chatillon.)

[@pokemasterx4244]

@@zoetropo1 That's a lot of writing. Do your fingers hurt after writing all that?

[@BloodyBay]

1:56 That's it. I'm going back to the Epic Rap Battles of History and suggesting Joan of Arc vs. Pierre Cauchon. Sure those two have some unresolved issues to rap out. And what the heck is a "pompomoose," anyway? o_O

[@BloodyBay]

Ohhh...apparently, a pamplemousse is a French grapefruit. And apparently, Joan of Arc enjoyed singing about French food. :D

[@windhvit]

BloodyBay You dolt pamplemousse is FRENCH for grapefruit, as in that's what grapefruit is called in french. There is no such thing as a french grapefruit.

[@BloodyBay]

windhvit Well, aren't you special? Do you go around calling _everyone_ dolts just to make yourself feel like a man? News flash: If a grapefruit's in France or comes from France, it's a French grapefruit. If a grapefruit comes from England, it's an _English_ grapefruit. If a grapefruit comes from Brazil, it's a _Brazilian_ grapefruit. And so forth, and so on. In closing, thank you for needlessly chiming in with your foul and abrasive attitude. Now that you have so needlessly waved it around, kindly stuff that attitude back into your rectal cavity where it belongs.

[@CyberPancakesXD]

BloodyBay Oh man guys, this guy used _italics_

[@BloodyBay]

CyberPancakesXD So did you. :-p

[@Elizabeththegreatest]

I can't believe the Bishop even had to ask what language Joan's voices spoke, she was obviously going to say they spoke french!

[@zoetropo1]

Yes, of course they'd speak French to her.

Awesome song

[@Queennerd1718]

love it . Joan of arc is amaze , she stood up for what she thought was right. They shouldn't of killed her

[@shhhleepy]

I wish Joan was still alive, I would just learn French and talk to her.

[@gardengrovespin]

she was such a great person

[@morganallred932]

I had to listen to this at school!

[@maggiedavidson5140]

this chick is amazing! Ii wish I could've met her!

[@katjones5515]

This rocks!!!!

[@MrFireflies100]

Well, you have to take into account that Joan of Arc lived centuries ago, when medicine was not as powerful as it is now. So back then, being hit by an arrow and surviving was a miracle.

[@jonashofstad9819]

I seriously cant get over her movements and her look in this video...

[@mistymcshifty1584]

"nobody has so far questioned Moses' mental state with regards a burning bush etc." That's because nobody sensible sees Moses, as depicted in the Bible, as a real person. Like many myths, his story may have its origin in reality, but, unlike Joan, he is not a verifiable human being. The Bible's not to be taken literally. Joan was a real person who committed real acts, and mental illness is one explanation to explain why she believed what she did. Me? I think she just fibbed.

[@JD1010101110]

If I had this when I was a kid, i would of learnt alot of history, much, much earlier!

[@carrotsoffury]

Joan of Arc is just the coolest saint

[@tash7073]

luv it! papplemousse, baggette

[@MsAelim]

In the same boat as you then. Thank goodness for KZbin.

[@bvzd1]

look it up, English territory in 1337 (start of the 100 years war) stretched over much of France, after Agincourt in 1415 the English were comfortably winning. However, Joan of Arc made her appearance towards the end of the 1420s and helped turn the tide "crushing the English" and in doing so began to take France back, concluding in 1453 when Henry VI's madness and War of the Roses ended the war abroad, which France won!

[@theproclaimer4000]

good song

[@LolrusGaming]

I didn't know they thought that. Thank you for the information. :)

[@SuzieGuru]

"Bought a pair..." *bit of a pause* "Of trousers!" Horrible Histories, I saw what you did there and you are very naughty and wicked. And yes, I love you for it.

[@MegaFalloutman]

I see you've taken a lot of flak for calling Joan of Arc a heretic but I agree with you on certain points, I don't believe she was a heretic but I believe she used the power she had gained from people believing she was connected with God to gain support/arms for the war against the English who had a rightful claim to the french crown.

[@Alex-vn6tg]

SO STUCK IN MY HEAD! 0,.,0

[@Alex-vn6tg]

Ikr! I'm singing it when I go off to bed and at school in class when I'm meant to learn. LOL. XD

This song rocks it is EPIC!!!!!!!!

[@Alex-vn6tg]

I was just listening to it!

[@Momo_Minomo]

In her testimony she said she was visited by St. Micheal the Archangel, St. Catherine of Alexandria, and St. Margret. Sometimes she would see them, some times just hear their voices. Considering an uneducated peasant girl was able to outsmart some of the greatest religious minds of her day for months and months I'm willing to believe her. Try reading her testimony some time. They tried every way in the world to trip her up and failed.

[@alfwwarbic5360]

Groovey

[@SuperGingerBickies]

Besides, if you bother to read Exodus, Moses led the Israelites out of Egypt from slavery and oppression having been guided by God. God sided with the Israelites against Pharaoh and Egypt. However, nobody (please correct me if I am wrong) has so far questioned Moses' mental state with regards a burning bush etc. Joan became Saint Joan because she practised what the RC Church calls Heroic Virtue as evident from testimonies regarding the revision of evidence at her trial etc.

[@Mindlabytinth]

I'm not sure about it, and I'm just putting out a thought here, but could it be that "scotch" would be used to describe things "done in a certain way typical of the scots", while "scottish" would be used to describe things "coming from, or relating to the land of Scotland"? In other words, one being a judgement on the "typicality" of something relating to a "Scottish way" and another simply meaning "coming from Scotland" or "located in Scotland"?

[@colmhearty6565]

best song i even know all the words

[@SuperGingerBickies]

Also, the Pope who reviewed the notes from Joan's trial concluded that it was the bishop who interrogated her at her trial who was the heretic. Not Joan. Heresy has not gone away, even now, in 2013. There is nobody burned for it, just admonished and, if obstinate, eventually excommunicated.

[@PenguinSlime]

Scottish and Scotch are, both, applicable: Scotch eggs; Scotch tape. ‘Scotch’ has been used for hundreds of years. ‘Scots’, ‘Scottish’, and ‘Scotch’ each have their own proper and different usage.

[@ktwalters2840]

2:52. They charged her for basically saying god spoke to her and now she is a saint. Irony at its best

[@TomZanovich]

A) one of them was an engineer and a military theorist, the other was a pure soldier and a real psycopath, the one who made the tactics of making the brits fall right on their cannons... B) Sorry to have make an innocent typo because I am french and we write it like that. C) I never said that Joan has ever made anything useless, I am just saying that there is much, much more reasons of the french victory than just her.

[@LolrusGaming]

laura torres, good point

[@Hulliness2]

I love "bought a pair... of trousers" lol

[@jekyllsreject]

I can confirm the other side of this argument being an actual real Scottish person. I guess 'Scotch' is just a name for the things we make, it's never ever used other than that.

[@SuperGingerBickies]

I'm reading a brilliant book by Professor Kelly de Vries called 'Joan of Arc A Military Leader'. Its main emphasis is on Joan's military prowess. On the question of Joan's mentality: Dauphin Charles's father was mentally ill so he would have spotted a loonypot a mile off. He had Joan questioned by several experts as to her claims and was satisfied that she was legit - especially when she told him things about himself that nobody else knew outside his own court!

[@sezzyhills]

argh i wish i could work on horrible histories so much you don't even know

[@AdelaideSwordAcademy]

great song, but I just can't get over the fact her pauldrons are on backwards. that's the "shoulder armour" ;)

I love Joan of Arc, and at first I was pretty disappointed with this song. But it's grown on me.

I've lived only 20 Earth lives. Being psychic: Clairvoyant, Clairaudient and Clairsentient... and being "wired" by Spirit to the Spirit World.... that's how I see, speak and know of God.

[@barrycorcoran8066]

Scotch is used in England as a derogatory term for Scottish ppl a bit like them calling the Irish fenian's

[@kakawong3252]

Which song did the chorus come from?

[@BigBadassR]

She was a cool young lady, sad things had to go that way with her.

Thirdly: If you will ‘troll’, then at the last know that “tch” is not to be onomatopoeia; it is spelt “tut”. (I realise this in nitpicking, but I stand by it.)

[@eddardstark3915]

I recently found out some rather surprising news. before you read on know that i am not one of those insane nationalists who use false facts and lies to support and deny any terrible thing that their country did, I am just simply putting facts out there. It was actually the french who imprisoned and burnt her, the English had no part in her sentence. The French condoned her for wearing trousers

[@JohnnyBeGood3322]

Joan Of Arc, hot as an arc welder

[@blackmichael75]

But "Scotch throne" is not correct. To refer to things pertaining to Scotland, or people from Scotland, the correct word is "Scottish". Look it up if you don't believe me.

[@PenguinSlime]

Look, it's 'Scotch', but I don't feel like arguing. You say what you think is right; I say what's right. I don't have time for the constant back and forth, because--believe me--I will not give in. Ended?

XD

[@blackmichael75]

There are hundreds of women saints. What are you talking about?

[@moimeme7499]

Lol, what funny is that even the English nobility spoke French at the time.

[@SuperGingerBickies]

The ''W'' stands for ''Whatever''. You chose your handle for YT - so don't accuse me of calling you names. First of all, I'm sick and tired of people not sticking to the FACTS about Saint Joan of Arc. As Europe was CATHOLIC at the time of Saint Joan, the matter of the English kangaroo court and ''Heresy'' was resolved BEFORE the Reformation, the charge of heresy does NOT stand. And adding monarchs hundreds of years later is irrelevant.

You 'don't feel like arguing', you 'don't have time for constant back and forth', but 'you will not give in'. Um, so which is it? And you are wrong, the word is Scottish.
