SABATON - A Lifetime Of War (Official Lyric Video)

[@Sabaton]

On May 23, 1618, the Bohemians went up against the Habsburg rule and threw imperial officials out of the window, marking the start of the 30 Years' War - a violent, bloody, disease-ridden war.

Sabaton, I don’t know if you will see this, but hello my name is Ibrahim. I am from Yemen and now live in Egypt. This song hits me hard, very hard, especially the lyric “Religion and greed cause millions to bleed”. I have experienced this firsthand, having suffered through much of the Yemeni civil war, a war about religion and greed. This song made me tear up even a little. Thank you sabaton. You guys rock.

Never heard the song before but I liked it. I also really love military history so once I found out what the song was about I did my best to backtrack and find out who actually made the song (video didn't do a good job at the information...) and I been here ever since

I am from Sumy, Ukraine. And I think I will remember a moment from that war forever. When electricity was gone for a very long time, and I was lying on a couch in my headphones with my phone at about 12% charge hoping that it'll last until lights will go back on, and I was listening to that song. Just when I thought that there was no hope for electricity today, and it will probably go on only tomorrow. But the lights went back on right at the moment that song started playing! I had a feeling that I can't really explain. I felt happiness because of the lights, sadness because of the war, and now I guess I will remember this song for that moment forever. Thanks Sabaton for releasing these songs!

Meu Deus! Quando você acredita que essa banda não pode mais te surpreender, eles aparecem com uma versão magnífica como essa. Uma verdadeira obra prima! Sabaton cada vez mais se consolidando como uma das maiores bandas do mundo. 🇸🇪 🇧🇷

[@Cast-Carnival]

Let me guess, smoking snakes is one of your favorites. edit: called it.

[@simbeto1]

@@Cast-Carnival Yes, it's definitely one of them!

I discovered sabaton this year and i just can't stop listening, specially this song. When the lyrics came out I got a little "huh, i've never heard this before", and now i can't stop listening to this song. It's so catchy, i literally can't get it out of my mind. And no i don't need help with it

[@bradenpstasny3477]

Same I’ve been listening to Sabaton for years and haven’t heard of this song (and price of a mile) until this year and they’re one of my favorites

[@Mister_IRA]

Epic! I love your music sabaton!

[@enbininja]

Same here!!

[@arssup]

Try the Swedish version, it’s even more awesome!

[@rxbenrs23]

Lying in bed, back against the wall, crossed arms, closed eyes & headphones on. The light off, music running on and overthinking everything that is happening into your life. All your judgy thoughts running like an unstopable machine. Realising you care too much about people who you even aren't inside their mind, ready to give 100% but won't receive a single 20%. Late at night wondering if you should cut off & take care of your mental health or still be there to care for people who won't do the same, cause such a great heart as yours is rarely able to be found. Is not your loss when you are trying hard and end up in dust, is not your fault having a heart with endless love... but chose wisely who you give that love cause note everyone is ready to hold it. Maybe they'll look back one day & say: "he was different, now we losed him" but nothing is guaranteed in this life. Head up King, you got this. Move forward. - Random dude from the Internet.

This song is way too relevant to events in the current day and it's genuinely sad

[@Nogodni_medved]

This song was actual literally since 1618

[@excaliburofgachagames9241]

Everytime i listen to it i think of the world and how everything is falling apart. It makes me feel sad and alone.

[@deborahspijkerboer5983]

Thought I couldn't love Sabaton more.... until this song. It literally gave me chills. Also, Sabton is the perfect combination between metal and history!

[@franciscodetonne4797]

With some slight modification, this song can be THE anti-war anthem. Wars should exist only in works of fiction, not reality. Thank you, Sabaton, for using your talent and time to spread awareness and pique our interest of history.

[@dianeeyestone2040]

I just discovered Sabaton through a tribute to Hogan's Heroes. I am a history buff and really enjoy your songs. They have led me to some obscure historical events. (I am 77 yrs old.)

[@eren.8577]

Always love hard, metal songs of Swedish and this one became my favorite thanks to eu4 that made me realize this masterpiece. Respect from Turkiye

[@benb-gh3uo]

Though it’s about the bohemians, you could apply this masterpiece to any time period, especially now

[@MajorOcto]

since when is it about the bohemians?

[@benb-gh3uo]

@@MajorOcto read sabatons comment on this post- it’s about the 30 years war between the Hapsburgs and bohemians

[@MajorOcto]

@@benb-gh3uo ok

[@MajorOcto]

@@benb-gh3uo its about both the bohemian revolt and the 30 years war

[@gottkroprinz7859]

​@@benb-gh3uo The 30 Years War involved way more powers than Bohemia and the Habsburgs. Whilst it did START due to the Bohemian Revolt, many other European Powers joined later on the Protestant side, including France and Sweden.

[@silenze5389]

Legendary as always

[@SuperEHEC]

I remember like 11/12 years ago Piscator His lyric videos teached me English while sabaton teached me to enjoy metal and helped me alot of times staying alive I guess Love you guys so much

[@Justbahduh]

The song we all need to be reminded of once in a while. Never should it be forgotten.❤❤

[@JGGR89]

Sabaton, you continue to elucidate and rock my socks off! I sent in a request regarding the Borinqueneers from the 65th infantry. I hope their story can inspire you. Rock on! 🤘

[@williamwinder5011]

Those who start the wars are never the ones that fight them. Why must our children BURN? Many go off the fight, but no one comes home.

[@isthatzq]

Actually during this time period the kings and commanders fought in the battles. The king of sweden during this war died charging into the catholic forces.

[@Drakuba]

One of my all time favorite from Sabaton, along with no bullets fly and price of a mile Love the way this song resonate within me

[@Igorilianu]

One of the best songs out there on the live session and I am happy to seee most of the old songs getting this sorts of videos, keep up the good work sabaton and people behind the scenes of sabaton

[@Eg.601]

This album was incredible. So glad that these guys are still around

[@Speedosoundsonic]

"Religion and greed, cause millions to bleed " truer words have never been spoken..

[@Aceshot-uu7yx]

True but to be fair to religion that greed usually disguises itself in the guise of religion. In truth thought the conflict stopped being about religion after that first decade as France and Spain tried to build their power after Sweden and Germany were tiring from the conflict. Religion can start problems but greed is infinity more powerful. The soviet union under Stalin and Lenin with millions killed can show that. At first it was ideology but then became truly despotic and worse as it went on. Religion itself does little, it was the catholic church losing power and protestants sementing themselves in a time of revival. It truly broke down into a power struggle after that first decade with it becoming obvious it lost its original meaning or purpose. The parallels with the Russian Civil War are stark, two ideologies clashing,which to an outsider seem the same but when studied deeper show strong differences, fighting each other and causing untold suffering. The only diffrence is we know Stalin and Lenin combined killed a great deal more people then these kings and queens did.

[@beefanly4315]

Decided to try Sabaton and this is my first listen. Will definitely listen to more!

[@joao43851]

so many feelings listening to this song. I cannot pick any bad music from Sabaton, and I truly love all of them. Yet, some of their songs, like this one, are just .... MAGNIFICENT

[@circuitthesentienttoaster1477]

Hello Sabaton, Love your vids, from the USA 🇸🇪 💖 🇺🇸

[@sirpuffball6366]

always nice when Sabaton leans into the anti-war part. Truly based
