LEST WE FORGET to play this instead of Christmas carols this year 🤗🤗🤗 WHAT WOULD YOU LIKE TO HEAR NEXT, BRETHREN? 🤘🤘🤘 PS: Mariah Carey will probably dislike this comment 😀😀😀
Hi there I’ve got some ideas for ya Heats on Fire from HammerFall HootsForce from Gloryhammer Step Closer from LinkinPark My Way from Lintbisket But I’ll be happy with anything you sing Miss Anahata 🙂🙂🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤. Kind Regards AuraKnight 🖤🖤
For some reason, this masterpiece sung by a woman gave me the vibe of Valkyries or Angels calling the fallen home. And I absolutely refuse to change this perspective of that song now. Amazing cover!
"It never happened again, any war, anywhere. But for one day, one Christmas, a very long time ago, everyone just put down their weapons and started to sing. Everybody just stopped. Everyone... was just kind." - Peter Capaldi, Doctor Who, 2017
I cannot listen enough to Sabaton's version, now i can add this version to listen too, I would love to see it make the charts worldwide, in memory of all those lost souls from The War to End All Wars
It is honestly so hard to do justice to such a beautiful moment in world history, and both you and Sabaton have done such an amazing job of it. At the end of 1914, after months and months hard, brutal fighting, the frontline soldiers decided to simply lay down their weapons and celebrate the birth of a man who went about his life preaching kindness and compassion. No wonder Sabaton literally took years to achieve a song they were satisfied with!
Great cover, and great descriptive text with the use of old photographs of the actual truce. You add a haunting aspect to Sabaton's awesome song, although you can't manage the depth of the male voices emulating those soldiers at the front as Sabaton do (or what must have been a huge budget for their amazing video). I was a little disappointed that you didn't finish with Floor's amazing wordless solo ending though. I know you can if you reach for it. So something added, and something lost - I declare a tie! And that is no mean achievement for you. The generals were furious, as once the truce had happened, the soldiers could not be forced to shoot at their newfound friends, and whole divisions had to be rotated away from the front lines and relocated because they were just firing over the heads of the "enemy" or at their sandbag defences instead of at them. And it is hard to discipline soldiers who are firing in the right direction but missing. It would not have even happened if the war had not ground to a halt and near stalemate, with opposing sides within earshot and each pinning the other - so close that they could recognise each other by voice, even if it took the truce to connect face and voice. And it was spontaneous, breaking out in a number of sectors and spreading out. A great moment amid the horror of the war.
Thank you, dear Vincenzo! It is so rewarding to see people cherishing our rendition - it makes all the work worthwhile. Hugs to you from Transylvania! 🖤🤗🖤
@@AnahataOfficial All your works are worthwhile!! And i know what i say, 'cause I have been following you for at least 3 years. Greeting from Italy and.. Rock on guys 🤟.
Yes, it is one of Anahata's best covers. The ones that *might* be slightly better (how can you improve perfection?) are their first (Elan, Nightwish) and Yggdrasil (Brothers of Meta) which was so much better than the original (which is was also pretty good by itself) that the lawyers made them remove it. Shakespeare was right. Henry VI, Part 2, Act IV, Scene 2 (yes, I know, William was conflicted about it).
One wonders when looking at photos of the truce how many of those men who were there on Christmas 1914 lived to be reunited with those who they shared that Christmas
Never happened again not in any war anywhere. But one Christmas a very long time ago everybody just put down there weapons and started to sing. Lest we forget we will remember them. 🏵️
This is incredible! Thank you for this cover… You made my day!🤩⚡️ You’re one of the most underrated artists. Keep doing metal covers and great music! I wish you good luck. LEST WE FORGET
ooooo yeah, definitely one of the best Sábaton releases this year and also, in the voice of this wonderful duet, the emotion is even greater . Another excellent cover, thanks Anahata :))
a fantasticsong and as always a fantastic cover. Love it. Thanks a lot for another song. Until now christmas arrived a second time (first time was, when Sabaton released the Song) this year with your cover.
Thank you, dear Schattenwolf! 🖤 That is exactly how we felt when SANATON released their version. This song is an absolute masterpiece. Props to the guys! 🖤
There are many who would say that those who do heavy metal Christmas music are irreverent psychos. In reality, it is the ones who have the nerve to state such words that are the real irreverent psychos.
You two did it performed well with this one. One of top five of all covers you have done so far. And would be even more epic and legendary? A cover from Van Canto. And to be honest, both of you really need to go to Sabaton Open Air in Falun, Sweden next year. I will buy you two something from the bar right away.
this is one of those very very rare times where a cover is better than the original song.I am a massive Sabaton fan but for some reason this song is simply better when song by a female singer and I 100% prefer this cover over the original.I must say that I have become a great fan of ANAHATA and I hope she wil do more Sabaton covers,especially Aces in Exile,Back in control,Soldier of heaven and steel commanders would be great.Also covers of King Diamond songs would be very interesting to hear with ANAHATA,like Welcome Home,The family ghost,The candle,Into the Convent,Come to the sabbath and Dressed in white,could be awesome.I would also love to hear ANAHATA do a cover of Dimmu Borgir's,In death's embrace,Mourning palace andStormblåst.
I love this song it might be early for Xmas songs but this I don’t mind to much cause it’s head banging Badass at its finest thank you Miss Anahata for excellent early Xmas Gift. Now u better be on your best behavior for Santa or you may get a lump of coal. Just joking 🙃 I hope you guys have a lovely Xmas 🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤🖤. Kind Regards AuraKnight 🙂🙂.
This is one of my favorite Sabaton songs and you made an excellent cover for it :) I wish you would also make a cover for Sabaton - Soldier of Heaven. Are you planning to do that or is it in progress currently?
I hope they will stop firing when Christmas day has come and I hope the war is end in soon... in war not have a loser or winner it only have a suffer, the death, a loosing, wailing form a childs, people and widow
