Apparently written during the war against Franco in Spain. Many Yugoslavs fought voluntarily for the Republic. Their experience was precious for the resistance in Yugoslavia a few years later. Death to fascism, fredoom to the people!
I believe the song was first written during the napoleonic wars and the spanish sang about driving out napoleon's armies. The republicans adopted it for their own cause during the civil war.
You guys were humiliated three times: 1- were humiliated in the spanish civil war 2-were humiliated after the spanish civil war 3-were humiliated seeing Franco impose Christ Kingdom for thirty six years congrats.
This song will always belong to those who fight against facism, be it in iberian lands or yugoslavian ones, in any language, in any culture, always in the side of those fighting opression
@@theingeniousone5141 No this is anti-fa song. Croats made fascist one after they surrendered to Reich and finally had chance to kill civilians in other balkan states and not be killed in return.
My grand grand father is a bosnian muslim he is a captain on the yugoslavian army and he join the partisan's he is a my hero rest in peace grand father murat
The oncle of my grandpa was a Partisan but then he got circled by Bulgarians and died in 1942. His name is stanimir veljkovic zele and He also got the 2nd highest medal called Order of the People's hero. If you google his name, then you will find a picture of him and you also find a statue about him. My grandpa also said, that he was one of the most intelligent people in his town. So there's a school called like him
There should be statues for all the comrades who didn't live to see the end of the revolution. May he rest in peace, and may he rest easy, as his Motherland was liberated. But the work of revolutionaries is not done; capitalism and the vile forces of reaction now reign supreme in the former Socialist lands of the East. As a Ukrainen, it is our duty as slavs to honor our forefathers, and to charge valiantly in their image. May he rest in peace, but comrades, his fight is not over.
Your grandfathers and ancestors who fought against fascism are heroes! I offer my eternal gratitude to all men and women who gave up their lifes in fight against barbarism
I never heard this Partisan version before. Fantastic! I doubt my Chetnik friends would appreciate it as much as this American. Solidarity comrades. Death to fascism!
I don’t know how fascist dogs even claim superiority. I don’t like the auth left but at least they attempt to fight for the greater good. Fascists want to exterminate anyone who doesn’t adhere to their contorted view of life. Being a fascist is the return to barbarism
@Oswald Mosley It's when say that some people are intently inferior without any evidence what so ever and that you can make a meritocratic society already based on birth.
@Oswald Mosley more like, when you hate people in general, what all of you have done even in your most pacifist form all you do is advocate for the worst possible things
@Oswald Mosley that is the definition of fascism. Everytime one of you is talking you're usually making cheap excuses for warmongering, hatred and fucking slavery at times and the other times you're just lying. Wether you love your mom or not isn't even relevant.
@@zemuntaurunum9781 the Yugoslavs held their own for the entire war. The only thing those Stalinists did in the war effort was try to assassinate Tito 5 times. The Soviet Union was a cancer on this earth and it’s better in the grave
@@liamnacinovich8232 you have to read more or maybe you feel some hubris and emboldened being behind a computer screen, thanks god the USSR existed, I am an anarcho-syndicalist myself but I commend the good things that came up through the Bolshevik/Soviet project. If it was not for the Red Army, you would not exist nowadays.
@@knightofliberty9297 yes Bandera the Facist who turned the workers against the their friends the Poles and yes Ukraine is good country but bad corrupt government
Although I am not a Communist, as an Italian, I am very sorry for the terrible things done by the Italian armies in Yugoslavia during the Second World War, especially to the Slovenes and Croats.
@@dimitrimolotovvyacheslav4604 Integralismo é o fascismo à brasileira. Integralista bom é integralista morto. Respeitemos a memória da FEB, que foram até à Itália vencer o fascismo. Exterminemos o fascismo de nossa pátria.
My Great grandfather fought with the Partisans. He joined in 1944 and fought in the Srem front. He caught Typhus, so he had to go recover, which meant that he could only continue the war after joining his unit again in Slovenia. He was quite the man.
@ϟ AntiSemiTHICC [Reborn] Ϟ You idiot, we in Yugoslavia had complete freedom. Now we are nothing more than bitches of the west. Tito was much different than other leaders who claimed to be communist, under him everybody lived better than now and in my country all people see him as a hero. If you lived here you would understand.
Are you degenerated? Right-wing nationalism destroyed Yugoslavia, in my country literally every single building is work of socialism, not to mention the fact most of older people go to Tito's grave site to pray instead of church
Rich,poor,white,black,everyone has the responsability to defend their culture/religion/language and history!Serbia for SERBS!Croatia for CROATS!Bosnia for BOSNIANS!Nobody should be forced to work and pay taxes to satisfy the needs of other ethnicities while his own family is suffering!You will never be able to force me to forget my heritage and culture and work for others!Yugoslavia was a big mess,yes people had work in factories,but HONOR and PRIDE AT ALL COSTS,NO BREAD AND MONEY AT ALL COSTS!Communists have no honor and backbone.Nobody can make Croats forget their history,nobody can make Serbs forget their history and just "coexists",this is against human nature and against the sacrifice of their forefathers that fought for their people.
During leadership of Tito everyone lived better, wish the man could come back. Now we are slaves of west and our people work for 300 dollars per month.
Exactly, look how it is in Kosovo, my motherland is destroyed by those Chetnik pigs and that fucking Milosevic because Tito just HAD TO DIE! May he rest in peace, now we are puppets of NATO and the yanks!
I love this song! its based of a song from the Spanish Civil war "¡Ay Carmela!" it was sung by the Spanish republican forces, mostly by the "Brigada Abraham Lincoln" also known as the XV International Brigade and by other members of the Spanish left .
it's even older then that, the original is el paso del ebro which is about the rout of Napoleon's armies by the spanish guerilleros, there's a lot of variations of this tune, even one made by the franquist dogs, but most were used by the republicans. And the one you talk about is viva la quince brigada, which is yes about the XVth brigade of the international brigades, the american brigade, altho I also read that it was about the brigada Connolly, so the irish brigade. But regardles, it's a great thune that celebrates all freedom fighters from all times :)
Actually, the song has nothing to do with Yugoslav communist movement. It is originally song written by Spanish republicans. This particular interpretation is by Yugoslav singe Darko Rundek from band Haustor.
De todas las versiones que he escuchado de esta entrañable canción , esta es la que más me ha gustado . Viva la lll REPUBLICA , hermanos que ya se la ve venir .
@@druidgorefiend8915 el Jacobinismo es lo peor que le paso a la humanidad, sos un enfermo si apoyas el jacobinismo y los ideales revolucionarios después de los años del terror, mira que el absolutismo es malo pero eso es mucho peor
@@Latrine1999 Gracias a la revolución de la burguesia y el pueblo es la razón por la precisamente gozas de una calidad de vida mil veces mejor a las de tu regimenes monarquicos...
@@druidgorefiend8915 Nunca dije que me oponga a la revolucion francesa? Justamente dije que me opongo al absolutismo. La revolucion francesa en si es un ideal que los jacobinos corrompieron, luego Napoleon lo arreglo y después tuvieron el sistema democratico que esta ya obsoleto. Eso dicho estar a favor de que la revolucion francesa haya pasado no significa que este en contra de las monarquias, ya que en una manera no absoluta no son malas, especialmente para los paises paternalistas como los ibericos, las ex colonias españolas y gran parte de los paises mediterraneos, España es un país que no se puede mantener unido sin monarquia despues de todo. No obstante, igual sostengo que la mejor forma de governanza es la Republica Comerciante Veneciana
No. Its about fighting fascists. Because fascists deserve to be fought. Its about liberating people regardless of their nation or country because every single person is your brother. your comrade.
