Sabaton - To Hell and Back (Lyrics English & Deutsch)

Sabaton really is the whole package: 1) Teaches you history like no other teacher. 2) Their music gives you courage like no other - giving you will power. 3) Perfect workout music - thus making you stronger physically as well. PS: Once nearly got a heart attack while running and listening to their music... Real story. You just cant stop running after you hear "Then the winged hussars arrived", realise what a men they must have been and how strong they must have been, because you just want to be as strong and courages as they were... Am I the only one?

I am pretty sure Cap was inspired from this man.

[@jthompson7175]

Cap's story to a point really does mirror Audie Murpy's. He tried to get into multiple branches of the military several times while lying about his age, until the Army took him - he had trouble because he was short. He became the most decorated solider in American history. When Hollywood made a movie about him, starring him, they decided to tone it down because they didn't think audiences would believe it.

[@GatsBerserker]

I'm from Russia and I know regrettably little about American history. I've learned about story of Audie Murphy because of this awesome Sabaton song! Impressed, truly impressed! He was literally The Real Captain America - without any super-soldier serum or vibranium shield. He's a real life hero and I truly respect him now when I know about his feats. Glory and honor to Audie Murphy and all heroes of Allied Forces who fought against Nazis in WWII! Best wishes from Russia to America - our stalwart ally in that war against Axis and to Sweden and Sabaton for this song! And, of course, to Piscator for making an awesome lyrics video.

The best part about the movie To Hell and Back, Audie Murphy fired the lead actor and director because he thought they were too stupid to make the movie correctly, so he took over the jobs. And, because of how amazing his story is, he actually rewrote the movie to be more believable, thinking no one would possibly believe what actually happened.

[@Afurrywolfguy]

Shows that Hollywood has no respect for true stories :)

[@BlackTemplar124]

IgnarHusky666 It's because Reality is Unrealistic. Soldiers like Audie Murphy and Simo Häyhä? Fictional characters need superhuman powers to do what they did. Portions of Murphy's military career were left out of his autobiographical film, To Hell and Back, because he didn't think anyone would believe him.

I always thought that Audie Murphy was just an effective killing machine, but he was also a poet and Sabaton used his poems to create a song honoring a great man.

He'd actually watch films of German orphans in a cleared movie theater. So seeing how much of a wreck he was, a good friend who happened to be in the film business talked him into doing the movie. A LOT of convincing was involved, so i am sure to keep Audie in the movie they probably toned it all down as to not give Audie any mental anxiety or flashbacks.

Sabaton feels like they are modern bards, singing songs of battles, acts of heroism and wars, and keeping it either awe-inspiring or awfully terrifying depending on the person. All in all, whatever they do is decent at its worst and spine-tingling feels inducing at best.

Fun Fact about Audie Murphy, he too was a musician who wrote several songs.

[@tommyodonnell9]

I believe it was 18. (He also wrote poetry.)

"Actual combat experience is the only teacher. You never come out of a skirmish without having picked up a couple of new tricks; without having learned more about your enemy...Total involvement with the war was the only thing that kept me alive and pushing." - Audie Murphy

The 3rd Infantry Division really is the most underrated US unit of WWII given how many battles it fought, how many MOH recipients it had, and how many unit citations it received. As great a man as Audie Murphy was, it's a shame he's the only Soldier the division is known for.

[@TheMemeDynamics]

This song is about the legendary US Veteran Audie Murphy. Born at Texas on 20th of June 1925, Also known as the most decorated soldier in the US history. He was awarded the Medal of Honor and many medals. Unfortunately, he ends his life in a plane crash on 28th of May, 1971. He was only 45.

The baddest man that ever lived was a 110 lbs dirt poor country teenager that grew up shooting squirrels for food during the great depression and was rejected multiple times by multiple service branches before being admitted to the army and becoming one of the greatest war heroes in history.

To Hell and Back is about Audie Murphy (1925--1971), the most decorated American soldier in the entire Second World War. In 1942 he falsified his age to 18 to join the Army and until 1945 he participated in battles on Sicily, at Salerno, Anzio and Rome, and also in southern France and the Alsace region. After the war he suffered from posttraumatic stress disorder ("shell shock") and as one of the first he took a stand for war veterans with such psychological disorders. In 1949 he wrote his autobiography "To Hell And Back" which was filmed in 1955 with Murphy playing himself. Over the next two decades he played in 44 movies. In 1971 he died in a plane crash, in the only 46 years of his life he was awarded with 33 medals, including the Medal of Honor and three Purple Hearts.

Let us remember those that have perished in battle. Whatever language they spoke or uniform they wore. Most, if not all of them were regular people that were pushed into battle by those in power. Many of them did unspeakably brutal things, in order to ensure their own survival and to protect their brothers in arms. My great-granddad's older brother was a cavalryman, after German HMG's wiped out the Belgian cavalry he retreated with the others and became a Machinegunner. After Belgium received their Lewis machineguns he used one of those to provide walking fire for his comrades while crossing the trenches. He died later on when he was supposed to be on leave, he stayed in the trenches to assist his fellow machinegunner. When they got overrun by the Germans during a raid, he crawled back through a 20" deep ditch to grab a crate of ammo drums for the Lewis gun. Then a mortar shell found him. He was aided later on by a medical officer. But he died bcs of the injuries sustained by shrapnel. He was a nameless unknown person, but we got the info bcs of the anecdotes of the Medical officer. Who wrote down the story told by his fellow gunner, who survived the raid. My grandma got hold of the records a few years ago. My other grandma's father fought on the beaches of Dunkirk, my granddad served with our Para-bataljons as well. My gf's granddad was a Royal Marine Commando, he jumped out of the boat at the beaches. He survived the fighting and settled in Liege in Belgium. These men were hard men, tough men, who surrendered everything in order to make sure we would have what we have today. Their sacrifice should never be forgotten! They should be honored and remembered so we wouldn't make the same mistakes anymore.

[@jjportala]

Claudy Focan my great grandpa was a soldier in the US ARMY During WWII and landed on Omaha beach and lived we used to have pictures of him escorting German pow’s but unfortunately they got lost through time I would love to have those pictures. My great uncle Casper was a willies Jeep driver in Europe for the US ARMY not much more is known about his service he came home shell shocked now known as PTSD. He never talked about the war. The service men and woman of that time area special breed of human.

I listened to this song for the first time today. I was sent a video of myself that a friend took while this song came on. When the video zoomed in on me the guitar came in. I just now listened to the whole song and the irony is I’m a short wild man from Texas that certainly hides his emotions.

"let them fall face down, if they must die, making it easier to say goodbye" that one lyric sends chill down my spine and highlights the horrors of war, your friends will die but the war deems you must move on and make your peace you must say goodbye and not seeing their face makes that easier, war is a truly horrible thing and i thank sabaton for singing about it and both highlighting the good and bad sides.

In a documentary about him , its said he would watch footage or media on war orphans .. I think it weighed overwhelmingly on his heart with the idea that he was responsible for orphaning children .. Our heros carry pain similar to this one way or another and we shouldnt forget that.

[@AlastoriaHall]

I have known of mr murphy since i was young and watched his movie every time i visited my grandfather, but i watched it again recently and realized something, in many scenes of the movie you can see he wasnt acting.... he was back in those moments, when he watches his friends die in the movie you can see the tears in his eyes because they died just like his friends, he was there again and the germans were not actors but germans in his eyes, he knew they weren't but he saw those germans that killed his friends. and it is truly tragic that war happens, mr murphy was a prime example of a man who went to war and did what a soldier does, but also a reminder, that men like him never truly leave the hell fire of war. and the scenes in this video near the end are from his movie, and if you look in his eyes you might see it too.
