SABATON Cliffs Of Gallipoli Reaction

[@Vanetra]

When we were kids, to prove that we are close friends in Turkey, we shake our hands after a bit of cut (yes this is dangerous but we were kids). And we would call it blood brother. No matter how physically we did not shake our hands, our blood was spilled on the same land. That's why we have always seen you as our blood brother. Loves from Turkey.

Abi yaa

[@claytonthomas4165]

Thank you for that. Love from Australia, may our countries stayed united and strong as brothers.

[@mushinbujin]

Apparently that was a thing in the United States too. They used to teach us about it in school, telling us it wasn't safe to do. That's the only reason I ever heard of it.

[@metehan8232]

I wish it never happened but it happened. As our ancestor Atatürk said, your sons are our sons. Rest in peace.

[@aaaabjy]

Gotta be honest, I did shed a tear or two at the first part of the song. May they Rest In Peace

[@rudigerheissich9800]

"There is no enemy, there is no victory". So strong, so true...

[@danielrupp7578]

American Army veteran here and can appreciate your putting the song off. There are a few songs from Sabaton that are tough for me but good. Purple Heart stands out as one of them.

[@danorott]

Purple Heart just hits different.

[@mamavswild]

Another US army vet here (82d ABN Fallujah 2003-2004 and 2 other trips)...this song for me is the toughest. Next would be Price of a Mile. Camouflage and Ballad of Bull hit me hard too. Other songs that strike me pretty deep is Soldier of 3 Armies and of course, A Lifetime of War...(Both the Swedish and English songs...the Swedish one is really tough to get through because the lyrics are completely different and far more powerful and personal) And as odd as it sounds I got choked up at the end of Bismarck LOL; sadder than Titanic for sure... ...but then the Winged Hussars arrived and I felt better.

[@bismarckandthekriegsmarine9711]

Please do ballad of bul an Australian medic who saved 12 us soldiers at the battle of tamboo in new Guinea untill sabaton i had never heard of as an Australian my self

[@davidhenriksson285]

Patrol dont wipe your tears, your pride will not be hurt by smears!

[@serifecanbolat9105]

Anzacs were our friends in the Gallipoli War, even if it is called enemy, we even shared our food, gave gifts to each other, became friends in the war.. I always cry whenever i think about Gallipoli. As a Turk i am proud of my nationality cause we even became friend with enemy and our enemy loved us like real friends. Rest in peace all heros. I hope we don't see such wars again and our friendship last forever. 🙏🏻

[@carls8286]

One of my favourite Sabaton songs as well. Its always moved me even though Im swedish. They capture a feeling in the song that I can compare to the songs from Carolus Rex, which are about the swedish wars during the 1600-1700. Great reaction, thanks! Respect from Sweden \m/.

[@danorott]

Carolus Rex is one of their best albums.

[@lancerd4934]

I too wanted to wait until I was ready for this song... ...I wasn't ready

[@AGDinCA]

Man, that was powerful. You made me tear up, too.

[@Fantunes69]

Honor and respect to Australian and New Zealand soldiers. Real heroes.

[@elssir1537]

Even though I'm no Aussie I really love this song. The Story of Gallipoli is really tragic but in the end with a bright and promising view of the future. Atatürk was really a great leader. Good fortune to you from Czechia. Keep it up. Loved your reaction Btw: if you like this type of slower and sadder Sabaton songs I recommend the Price of a Mile as well.

[@JB-gr3jl]

G'day from West Texas. I remember the film from years ago. Thanks for sharing with us.

[@timm2428]

know that theres at least one american whom will forever remember our anzac brothers in arms and will honor them.

[@edwardnelson9807]

Make that 2!

[@mamavswild]

@@edwardnelson9807 Make that 3! 🇺🇸🇦🇺🇳🇿🇬🇧🇨🇦

[@Lannisen]

Sabaton History has an excellent episode about this song and this battle, if you want to see how Joakim approached this piece. Really powerful reaction, thank you ❤

[@Lannisen]

And as for another song, I'm quite partial to Seven Pillars Of Wisdom, about Lawrence of Arabia.

[@LianteakaLia]

This song is really powerful and emotional to me and I'm swedish, so to see you react to it was even more so. I was tearing up right along with you. The battle of Gallipoli was a catastrophic faliure from the get go, it never should have happened. But it's amazing to see that even in the darkest hour there can still be that glimmer of hope for the future. Foes turning to friends in the end.

[@fuhrertehlulzen]

Every ANZAC Day there are 3 songs I have to play; Cliffs Of Gallipoli - Sabaton And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda - Eric Bogle I Was Only 19 - Redgum even if "I Was Only 19" is about Vietnam war, I feel it still fits

[@mamavswild]

🇺🇸🇦🇺🇬🇧🇳🇿🇨🇦. Family forever This is the first video I’ve watched of yours...subbed! Loved your honest reaction. The Turkish president’s speech made me spontaneously leak from my eyeballs.

[@andrewludwig9251]

I love your perspective on this battle. I got emotional watching you getting emotional!

[@GriziDaWiz]

Americans can think of their D-Day soldiers as heroes, but we think of the ANZACs at Gallipoli as brothers who were like us, ordinary kids, who signed up and were deceived. But they took it head first.

[@tor7619]

Check out sabatons song the ballad of bull its also about an austrailian guy (leslie ”bull” Allan) 🤘

[@mushinbujin]

Have you seen the Clancy Brothers version of And The Band Played Waltzing Matilda?

[@Brainreaver79]

sadly thats the version of the video that didnt had the Monument with the quote regarding the Anzac fallen in them.. i know one of the videos to that song has it

[@DeaconFFrost]

Those heroes that shed their blood and lost their lives... you are now lying in the soil of a friendly country. Therefore, rest in peace. There is no difference between the Johnnies and the Mehmets to us where they lie side by side here in this country of ours... You the mothers who sent their sons from far away countries wipe away your tears. Your sons are now lying in our bosom and are in peace. After having lost their lives on this land they have become our sons as well. - Mustafa Kemal Atatürk

[@evakenworthy7308]

I hadn't heard this one, thanks! That quote at the end made me ugly cry. I learned about Gallipoli from the Pogues version The Band Played Waltzing Matilda and I can't listen to it without sobbing. Respect from the US! kzbin.info/www/bejne/mYvUf2Sdod9ngLs

[@shamsmehdi3725]

"Former foes now friends side by side". British sent the australians to get slaughtered. I wonder about the loyalty of this "FRIEND".

[@mamavswild]

They sent everyone including themselves, it was a poorly conceived campaign...Winston Churchill wasn’t a decent dude in WWI.

[@kingseb2252]

This is why i hate the british (not the people the government especially during ww2 and ww1) they were arrogant and foolish and Australian and new Zealand troops paid the ultimate price
