Sabaton - 40 to 1 - Live at Wacken Open Air 2019

[@michalshaman]

Hear a song about Polish soldiers fighting in WWII performed by a Swedish band at a German festival... Priceless

[@ronaldostrowski4014]

I am Australian of part Polish descent whose late Polish veteran father fought the Germans as a member of the Free Polish Forces alongside their British and other allies. He has long passed away, but would be amazed by the sight of a new generations of Germans singing alongside this awesome Swedish Band remembering the brave deeds of the 700 Polish soldiers under the command of Latvian born Captain Ragnis. They fought off Guderian's 40,000 German troops backed by the Luftwaffe, panzers and artillery for THREE DAYS1 In 2017 I visited the monument to these almost forgotten Polish heroes After three days there were only 40 of them still alive in the bunkers and given the very high German casualty rate Guderian threatened to execute them all if they did not surrender. In light of this ultimatum their Latvian born commander ordered them to surrender, but threw himself on a grenade declaring that with his death Poland will eventually win out. And, now after 1989 his prediction has come to true. Indeed, it seems that Poland will never die. Thank you Sabaton for this remembrance of Polish heroes with such a stirring song. And, God bless Sweden for giving us with Polish connections such a talented and historically insightful band which has popularised many moments of Polish military history which most outside of Poland are unaware of. The same goes for all the other battles of other nations, including their own Sweden, which Sabaton commemorate in their awesome music and lyrics.

@@ronaldostrowski4014 I'm glad to read that my friend, as I'm polish I cry hearing this song every single time. Maybe we were weak by equipment, lack of planes, warships, tanks.... but spirit of this man that fought back then. They knew no fear.

[@wessenwolf]

I once saw a show of colosseum with jon hiseman, one of the greatest drummers ever, known for his 15-minute solos. And he said during a concert that he ia astonished by what metal-drummers can do, things he never managed to elarn throughout his career like doing a drumroll using just one hand. You might not like metal, but you cant deny that metal-musicians MUST be technical geniuses.

And here I am. At 3.37 AM, crying about the courage of soldiers long dead, from a foreign land. I'm danish.. why does this make me feel national pride? I mean, we surrendered almost immediately. Shouldn't this make me ashamed? No, because if there is one thing that this song confirms, it is that brave men and women can do near anything with enough purpose.

[@wessenwolf]

A subtle, but very important detail: notice how in the studio version he sings Unless YOU are 40:1 YOUR force will soon be undone But when in germany he is considerate enough to not adress an audience of Germans who had no part in the war but live with the guilt of it by singing Unless THEY are 40:1 THEIR force will soon be undone And thats one more reason to love sabaton

[@md1987]

I wasn’t there but I will see them November 3rd! This makes me proud to be a metal head! No matter where you are in the world all Metal people are my people, we are band of brothers and sisters, no power can break our bond!

[@PowermadNavigator]

The performance is great, really... I must say, however, that... might piss some people off, but... this is only the Internet. Daniel Mullback has so far been the most impressive drummer for this band in my book. The guy has energy, he has the hits, it's like he contributes most to Sabaton's sound and feeling... even though it's just drums, may not be just drums, the guy dishes the stuff out there and he does it properly somehow. Daniel Mÿhr ... what can I say about him. I think the best thing I can say is that having a live keyboardist will always be better than using samples and additional tracks. The rest is only natural afterwards and it's much better.
