"I feel proud for being russian, but i'm not russian" That's the Sabaton-Effect: You feel Patriotism for a foreign country

[@thelonelyghostN]

exactly

[@giratinathe_distorter7480]

Another great example of this is uprising

[@MysteriumArcanum]

That's like how every time I listen to Livgardet I feel proud to be Swedish, even though I'm not Swedish.

[@raf6029]

There are more cases of Sabaton Effect, literally in every Sabaton song

[@gregorm6605]

That second part of the solo is actually a part of the soviet/russian anthem, thats why it sounds so patriotic

[@TheRealmBetween]

Yes! I didn't realize until now why that part sounded so familiar!... is it true that the Russian anthem has a line saying "the police runs in teams" or something like that?

[@dixon2880]

@@TheRealmBetween Nope. I'm russian and there is nothing about police in our anthem

[@eves1503]

@@TheRealmBetween nothing about the police. The text is mainly about how vast and beautiful the country is and how proud we are of it because it’s the one and only, it is our home. The Soviet anthem, on the other hand, had a lot of references to communism, the will of the Soviet people to build the better future for themselves, the Soviet victories and stuff like that. But still nothing about the police. Music was exactly the same. Fun fact: the same poet wrote the words to both the Soviet (1943 and 1977 versions) and the Russian anthems (2001 version). Another fun fact is the Russian anthem is a complete song. It has three verses and three choruses.

[@tntfreddan3138]

@@eves1503 That's a nice touch, to have your national anthem an actual fully fledged song. In Sweden we actually don't have an official national anthem but when we sing "Du Gamla Du Fria" we usually only sing the first two verses and choruses. Those are the two original parts. The song isn't really about Sweden as it isn't mentioned in the first two parts, but only in the 4th part which was added in 1910 (Song was originally written in 1844). This is why the Polish national anthem is the only anthem in the world which actually mentions Sweden.

[@eves1503]

@@tntfreddan3138 so during the olympics, if a Swedish person is on the podium, they play that song? How interesting! I just listened to it and it’s so relaxing and hauntingly beautiful 😎And yeah, the entire Russian anthem is roughly 4 minutes long and they play a small part of it during sporting events.

Thankfully, Yamaha sponsored his new knee replacement. Joakim commented again saying that he loves his new Yamaha knee.

"Aces in Exile" during the Battle of Britain segment, "To Hell & Back" and "Union" about the invasion of Italy, "40:1" about the invasion of Poland, etc. She's definitely a cool teacher!

As a German I can proudly celebrate this chorus and sing it as loud as I do with the chorus of 40:1 or - my personal favourite - Resist and Bite. I feel proud for Russia as I feel for Poland and for Belgium. And If thousand polish fans celebrate Ghost Division in Woodstock, who am I not to celebrate the Defense of Moscow! 🤘

Resist and bite is such a under-rated song. I love it

Your beard can be proud to be Swedish... that is a Swedish beard if I ever saw one ;-)

Every time the chorus hits I’m getting goosebumps and feel like I’m ready move a mountain, this will be added to my workout playlist for sure

[@v.a.farafontova3049]

You have prepared for the viewing very well! Great job! 🤘💪Thanks. Most of those who filmed the reaction didn't know that Sabaton and Tapok worked on several songs together making a cover. And yes, I'm from Russia and I think we were the luckiest of all. 😁🤘💪We got 2 favorite Sabaton songs.

[@danielhughes3316]

What I hate is people giving hate on this song for stuff that is happening like just enjoy the history and the cool things about it

[@TankTheTech]

Gotta agree with you on that. I've seen a lot of comments from people hating on this song, or asking me to take this reaction down. This is about a part of history that has absolutely nothing with what is going on right now.

[@nevertrustbob1291]

@@TankTheTech Its pretty obvious too, Sabaton will be banned from Russia again if and when this war ends. Mainly in part in that they publically supported Ukraine regardless of the outcome Sabaton will never play this song or play in Russia again.

[@DonPavlentius]

Thank you for such a sincere and holistic understanding of music and Russian history. You are a cool dude!

[@vladimirxoxoxoxox2938]

instant sub! Best reaction ( i have seen all of them)!

[@TankTheTech]

Thank you!

[@jonassundell9366]

Great reaction! Greatings from jonas, gothenburg, swe. Stay safe u.😊

[@TheRealmBetween]

If you haven't heard Sabaton's "Attero Dominatos" yet, that's a good song to follow up with after this. And "Hearts of Iron"

[@AHVENAN]

You can actually buy exact copies of Joakims aviators in their merch store, or atleast you used to be able too, I have a pair on my bookshelf. I think it would be cool if you got a pair for yourself and did the intro to Sabaton saturday videos wearing them, think they would suit you quite well!

[@TankTheTech]

Good to know!

[@alexinkvizitor]

I got to know Sabaton thanks to Radio Tapok. This is a really cool band with great music and songs. And according to your reaction, everything is clear even without words - everything is written on your face ;-) :-) Thanks for reactions!

[@TheMarVist]

You're awesome! Thank you for reaction 😊

[@MycontentisgoldJerryGold]

I'm Russian on my mother's side. The origin of this song is interesting. It's as if someone wrote a song in the style of Nightwish, and Nightwish recorded it.

[@free42mind]

If you'll read the other comment you will know that it's not "if someone wrote". The author, Radio Tapok, intentionally wrote this song in Sabaton style.

[@MycontentisgoldJerryGold]

@@free42mind I do know how Radio Tapok wrote his song and how Sabaton covered it. I meant to compare it to Nightwish doing the same thing.

[@xxxxGreenxxxxDayxxxx]

I just want to see Sabaton play this live in Moscow. It's going to be pure chaos in that moshpit!

[@alexnazarov9436]

Tank, u r awesome!

[@mclotos]

Wow! This video makes my day! =)
