SABATON - Cliffs of Gallipoli (OFFICIAL MUSIC VIDEO) | REACTION

[@raquelortega3620]

I love Sabaton. I started hearing about them through my 15-year-old daughter. She wants to be a military historian, so she's passionate about Sabaton's songs. And since I follow everything she follows on social media, I started following them too. 🤣

[@Fury-u9k]

Awesome yeah sabaton take no sides but tell the truth via song this conflict is very tragic and a mark that Churchill could never shake

[@GivenToe]

Yeah Sabaton are so great. Oh well then tell her "A Swedish youtuber says she has good taste in music!" I bet she is! Thats so awesome.

[@raquelortega3620]

@@GivenToe Yessss. My daughter has very good musical taste, she loves Sabaton. I hope they come to Madrid (Spain) we will both go to see them. Playing their music at home so much made me become fans of them too.

[@susanjw7763]

Aussie here....This is the original line-up until March 2012 when 4 members left leaving Joakim and Par to find the new members - enter Chris, Thobbe and Robbin who was replaced by Hannes. Tommy joined Sabaton when thobbe left in 2016. I learnt about Galipolli through school and Sabaton gave me the opportunity to learn more about the Galipolli campaign

[@GivenToe]

Hello there Susan! Wow up until 2012, thats cool! Thanks for the info, means a lot! Yeah Sabaton taught me more about history than school did to be honest.

[@ryndrasoffical]

Correct, but its not Robbin, its Robban Bäck who joined 2012. Tommy replaced Thobbe 2016 and Thobbe replaced Tommy in 2024

[@patprice6083]

Love Sabaton yes Joakim is young his voice has matured. The Water Diviner with Russell Crowe is search for his sons in Gallipoli good movie❤❤❤

[@magdalenapruszynska1447]

Did you notice that Joakim does not have his tattoo there? 😁😁😁😁 It is really old song - from 2008 - The Art of War Album 😁😁😁 Here we have the old squad. Daniel Mÿhr (keyboard), Daniel Mullback (drums) , Rikard Sundén (guitar) oraz Oskar Montelius (guitar - he plays the solo).

[@GivenToe]

Wow thats epic! 2008! Had no idea 😍

[@LenkaB.]

Sabaton is my most favorite band.❤ Thanks to Sabaton, I got to know Tommy.😍 In this song are the original band members - both Daniels, Oskar and Rikard (and of course Pär and Joakim).🙂 I love Joakim's voice and this song. 🤘Thank you for this reaction. 😃

[@GivenToe]

Sabaton are awesome! Yeah same here. Thank you Lenka! =)

[@HenriqueAlbuquerque295]

Sabaton don't surprise me anymore. This is great as all they do. Great, great, great. Thank you bro!!!!!

[@GivenToe]

Yeah I really enjoyed this one! Thanks bro!

[@AFalk86]

[@helenpeterson]

My Great Grandfather William Cresswell and his brother Albert were servicemen, Albert was one of those casualties and is remembered at the Somme. This song is so powerful.

[@GivenToe]

Thats very powerful indeed. Thank you for sharing Helen!

[@thedistractedauthor7389]

Me holding back giggles at the cat noises... but then 2:53 came along and completely took me out. 🤣 Thank you again for another Sabaton reaction.

[@GivenToe]

hahah yeah those darn cats! They are so cute though so it's hard to get mad at em XD Thank you!

[@Shoshonegrl]

Geeezz Giventoe 😆 🤣 😂 I didn't notice you were swedish. I absolutely love all of you guys accents. It's beautiful. This is indeed an old song, it's cool!❤ Thank you

[@GivenToe]

Hahah well surprise surprise! 👋😂 Thank you! ❤️

[@MetalGoat84]

Hej GivenToe, jag är fran Tyskland. Travelled to Sweden in 2019 for holiday btw. This song was on the 1st Sabaton album I bought called"The Art of War" from 2010. At this time on the drums must have been Daniel Mullback (2001-2012), Keyboard Daniel Mÿhr (2005-2012) and on Guitar Rikard Sundén (bis 2012).

[@RemoW74]

I've seen them live 34 times so far.

[@katygaston8777]

@@RemoW74 Lucky you!

[@christianchrillesvensson]

Sabaton, the world's best history teachers, you will probably learn more from them than you did in school and have more fun😅

[@GivenToe]

I learnt more about history because of Sabaton, that school ever did! Amazing isn't it?

[@christianchrillesvensson]

Yes indeed amazing, Fun fact, I have been to the place where Charles XII (Carolus Rex) was shot dead when I was a younger. But it wasn't until I started listening to Sabaton that I understood more about who he was.

[@elzbietajukic905]

Sabaton IS great. I'm stating the obvious here, but I love history 😁. This is an older song. It's from "The Coat of Arms" album with original members of the band from 2008. Very powerful song, I'm glad you're doing the reaction to it, because the song, for me, is underrated. And Sabaton is known for their solos, aren't they ?? 😎 Don't worry, I haven't heard about Gallipoli either. But after this song I started digging and found out all the grousom details of that battle. Very engaging reaction. Do more of their older songs if you can. They should come back to light. Stay healthy 🤘🎶🇵🇱

[@GivenToe]

It sure is! Yeah around 2008 is when I first started noticing them. I didn't like all songs and took a short break and around 2010 I made another go for them and fell completely. Sabatong are known for epic solos indeed! My favourite being Tommy and Chris though. Most creative solos ever. And powerful. Thanks Elzbieta! Always nice to read your comments!

[@sarahberry4389]

Love Sabaton...which I learned through your videos...agree love the piano !! Amazing video. Thank you

[@GivenToe]

Thank you! 😁

[@bubsmomma]

Hadn't yet realized their full potential. Fun to compare now with them. Quality of videos is there

[@GivenToe]

Exactly! And wow they have evolved in such a great way! Not just Joakim, all of them! And as a whole band.

[@Elena_Oraevsky]

Thank you very much for Sabaton and for this song. A very emotionally powerful song. It is from their 4th album "The Art of War". Behind the drums sits Daniel Mahlbach, the first drummer of Sabaton. I liked him very much, I was worried when Daniel left the band. And in general, when 4 members left the band at once, I was afraid that Sabaton would not recover. Luckily, Hannes, Chris and Tommy (now Thobbe) gave the band a new life. Thanks for the great review, take care.

[@GivenToe]

Thank god! 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻

[@marinamucic908]

Daniel reminds me so much of Jukka Nevalainen from Nightwish with his drumming style, he's all in and I just love it

[@geneWebb-uh5fg]

ABBAMAN.... I actually liked the music in the song a lot the keys really did it for me. You know I'm not into the subject matter of their songs but they are top-notch when it comes to songwriting. I mean it's good to remind people of the past and what has happened when I would prefer a different lyrics😊

[@GivenToe]

Yeah Gene, they really are masters at writing lyrics and also keeping it historically correct. I love that.

[@helenesvanborg6234]

Sabaton is Sabaton and I don't think I have heard any bad song yet 💥 This one was new for me and it's great! Even though it is a little strange for me to see this guys. I'm a pretty "new" Sabaton fan. It's still strange for me to see them without Tommy. But as I said, a great song like usual 🤘💥 Thanks David 🙏

[@GivenToe]

I agree Helene! I have yet to explore a lot of older Sabaton songs for sure. Same here. Thank you!

[@JoakimLindqvist-d2w]

Thanks for a good reaction:)

[@kayhill-fp7wy]

❤That was a awesome epic video, ❤ Joakim does sound different then and younger, ❤ like you it wasn't the same without Tommy and Hannes, ❤ it was only through watching Tommy that I started following Sabaton, ❤ the song was great even though it was sad, ❤ looking forward to seeing more videos love you Giventoe ❤xxx ❤

[@katygaston8777]

It's Tommy's birthday today!

[@GivenToe]

Really liked that! Yeah he sure does. Yeah Tommy did add a certain touch to Sabaton. Probably why he stayed for so long. I am positive though, that Sabaton has evolved in such a great way, they will do ok without him

[@mirandabekkernens8265]

He David....nice reaction....great song....did not no this older song eder...nice solo indeed...have a nice weekend 😊❤

[@GivenToe]

Thank you! Yeah the solo rocked! Interesting to go back in time a bit and compare. Thanks you too!

[@Anderssw]

mycket bra låt.

[@marjaoisti9693]

❤ Have a nice weekend david⚘

[@GivenToe]

U too! ( a little late sorry)

[@ThunderboltDragon]

The single was released on Myspace in 2008 so almost 20 years old and I think Sabaton's first single? Anyway the song is great, but only my nr 2 when it comes to Galipoli. Nr 1 is of course The Pogues' version of The Band Played Waltzing Mathilda. Totally different kind of music but a truly awesome song. I can really recommend it. Beware thought it's 8 minutes long. I don't know what songs are on your Patreon request list but if you find Screaming Eagles and/or Blood of Bannockburn (both by Sabaton) I can really recommend them too.

[@GivenToe]

Wow on Myspace?! Thats awesome. Back in the day. I have not heard "The Pogues" version. Sounds interesting! I like long songs so thats great! Thank you for the tip!

[@tremion9420]

Hello GivenToe. recently subscribed to you after watching your amazing and hilarious reaction to Beast in Black - Power of the Beast. Amazing reactions then and before (watching back many past reactions currently as well). Since most of the bands you react are my favourites it's an extra spice to the enjoyment. Whenever you have a chance, and time, I'd recommend to react to a german power metal band called POWERWOLF ( in case if you are not familiar with them already or someone already beat me to it ). For a good starter I'd suggest Sainted by the Storm . Keep up the great work 🤘

[@GivenToe]

Hello there Tremion! Thank you for subbing and welcome to the family! I am very happy to hear you enjoy my videos and my taste in music! Powerwolf are great (at least what I heard so far)! I did a few reactions in the LIVESTREAMS I have now and then. So they were Live reactions. Thanks so much and take care! =)

[@ingerbjorkman6373]

Lite skillnad på bandet då och nu .Men en bra låt 👍Kommer ihåg första gången jag skrev , du hade livesändning från jag tror var svärmors stuga 🤔 Jag var helt övertygad om att du satt i en vindskupa i New York och la ut musikvideos. Såg nog ut som en fågelholk 😮 när du började prata skånska och var från Eslöv 😂 Vi pratade om lömska spindlar vill jag minnas. Kramar till Dig ❤

[@GivenToe]

Jajamän! På Öland 😁😁😁 Haha tes Eslöv metropolen 🤣

[@eleonoragiacomazzi5775]

Sabaton are masters of war history for sure..David, if you are interested in movies about war campaigns. I highly recommend the 1981 Australian film directed by Peter Weir...Gallipoli..Very moving..Speaking of baby faced Sabaton...Mel Gibson is also extremely young in the film.. Thankyou David...you sound much better..😊 Until next episode.. Ciao bello ❤

[@GivenToe]

Eleonora! Yeah they truly are masters indeed! So accurate and true! And expressive. I read another comment saying I should watch that movie too! I should see it! Thanks Eleonora! Take care now! Ciao bella!

[@randyrumrnr2062]

Bro...we have the same birthday, 17th Feb!

[@GivenToe]

Thats awesome! 🎉😁

[@forestgirl22]

That's not you being bad at history it is the teacher being not varied enough at teaching it. 😅 also yup that's a lot of humans dead. 😢

[@nicklasnyselius]

2008 är den från 😊 så det är originaluppsättningen

[@marinamucic908]

Never heard of Gallipoli?! I get not knowing the history, but not knowing Peter Weir's masterpiece with Mel Gibson from 1981 is inexcusable! David, I'm disappointed 😂 Just joking, of course, but you should seriously watch that movie 😃 As for Sabaton, this is an amazing song, like every song from The Art Of War

[@GivenToe]

Never head of it! I thought it was just a "town" in Italy. History is not my strong side I'm afraid, but thanks to Sabaton, I learn a lot! Which film is that? I like Mel Gibson a lot but that one passed me by I believe XD

[@marinamucic908]

@@GivenToe I was joking, but in reality, it was easy to miss that movie because it's from 1981 and it was the movie that skyrocketed Mel Gibson from Austraila to international movie scene. Gallipoli is a peninsula in Turkey, then Ottoman empire, where the battle between Ottoman and Australian forces took place and that's what this song is about. The movie is really worth seeing, even if it's not entirely historically accurate, as usual with such productions. The name of the movie is also Gallipoli

😅 So ... 16 years is "very old" nowadays. And this is not the Sabaton "you grow up with" ? So you are 12 yo ? Wow...Do you react to those mideval Bands like Iron Maiden? Or even these Stoneage Guys Deep Purple? Guys... seriously...

[@GivenToe]

Hahah yeah VERY old XD I started listening to my first Sabatong songs around 2010, the first song I heard being "Primo Victoria" and "Attero Dominatus" followed by "Metal Crüe" and "Nuclear Attack". My favourite around that time is "In the name of God". But after that I took a "break" from Sabaton, and when I returned to them, Tommy and Hannes was in the band. I might react to Iron Maiden since I have not heard all of their songs. But I did listen a lot to them in my youth. Especially the first 2 albums with Paul Di Anno.

[@Finkele1]

Doesn't tell anything about Gallipoli. For me it's big no no. This is anti war song without any references. At least price of the mile has reference and enough to understand how fucked up war is.
