This song was written by some German political prisoners in a KZ where they had to dig trenches to dry up moors. Thought it was written by the prisoners for some reason the SS guards really liked it and had the prisoners perform it on evenings.

Rudi Goguel later recalled: "The sixteen singers, mainly members of the Solingen Workers' Singing Society, marched into the arena in their green police uniforms (our prisoners' clothing at the time) with shouldered spades, myself in the lead in a blue tracksuit with a broken spade handle as baton. We sang, and already at the second verse the almost 1000 prisoners began to hum along with the refrain. [...] From stanza to stanza the chorus increased, and at the last stanza even the SS men, who had appeared with their commanders, sang along with us in unison, evidently because they felt themselves addressed as 'bog soldiers'. [...] At the words '... Dann ziehn die Moorsoldaten nicht mehr mit den Spaten ins Moor' the sixteen singers thrust the spades into the sand and marched out of the arena, leaving the spades behind, which now, stuck in the bog soil, acted as grave crosses." Two days after the first performance, the song was banned by the camp authorities. Nevertheless, it was the camp guards who repeatedly demanded that the song be sung by the prisoners on their marches to work.[1]

@@letsplaypetrus4802 That fascination of the SS guards for the songs, arts etc of the inmates is one of the creepiest details of the concentration camps in my opinion. "Oh, we're making them work until they die, purposely. You know what would be great? Having them show how they're having fun and are inspired by it!"

In Greece during the Civil War, the female political prisoners of Averof(f) prison formed a band and the manager of the prisons would love them, and ask them to perform in front of her daughter. Some of them came from a variety of cultures and are translations, "Oppression and Slavery", the Russian song is included for example, some folklore from 1821. Unfortunately, they took the collection down from KZbin. I ripped it, but have no idea how to upload it🤪 kzbin.info/www/bejne/fX6VioaAm9p6eac kzbin.info/www/bejne/mHXJf2ONodWibM0

SAY IT. They were not simple political prisoners. They were communists. Communists were the first victims of the nazis.

It would be awesome to see you do "La Butte Rouge" next, it's a leftist anti-war french song. Oh and by the way, R in french is pronounced like the Spanish J, it's a more guttural sound than what you usually do ;)
