Sometimes people forget we live in the same word as the Roman’s, Greeks, medieval times, ancient civilizations, we all breathe the same air, look up at the same stars, and desire the same things. The story of humanity needs to be taught so all those who got us to where we are now are never forgotten for their sacrifice.
Humans of the distant future will look back into the past to us, the same way as we now look back to see the ones that lived long before us. One day, we will be the ones who lived long ago
@@stevensonsteven5965 no apparently the song was based on some random ass painting. it is said in the song that he used to be feared, no one feared louis.
On January 21, 1793, after a snowy night, Louis XVI was led to the scaffold through a sad and resigned crowd. He slowly climbed the steps, then at the top, silenced the drums and shouted: "I am dying innocent of all the crimes that are imputed to me. I pray to God that the blood you are about to spill will never fall on France". The knife fell at 10:22 a.m., the king was dead. A few fanatics rejoiced and sprinkled the crowd with his blood. The rest, soldiers and civilians, remained petrified. Paris is then locked in mourning, houses and stores are closed, some families are in tears. The executioner, C.H Sanson, will say himself that in front of the head of the king, "the major part turned away with a deep horror and a painful shudder".
I feel this song fits Napoleon more than King Louis XVI. The beginning, while he sits in exile, he is recollecting how he basically ruled most of Europe, and how he now sleeps alone due to the fact that his wife didn't follow him into exile. How he used to roll the dice by taking huge risks in battle, and how his enemies greatly feared him. The minute he held the key, or rather became Emperor, Britain, Austria, Prussia and all his enemies joined forces, trying to close the walls in upon France. Also, not to mention that a famous painting of Napoleon, where he is on his horse and draped in a red cape, is called "Viva La Vida".
"I HEAR JERUSALEM BELLS ARE RINGIN ROMANS CAVALRY CHOIRS ARE SINGIN BE MY MIRROR MY SOWRD MY SHIELD MY MISSIONARYS IN A FORGEIN FEILD FOR SOME REASON I CANT EXPLAIN SANIT PETER WONT CALL MY NEVER AN HONEST WORD BUT THAT WAS WHEN I RULED THE WORLD" one of my fav parts so far❤
Ngl I feel like the best place to use this song as a bg music or theme song would be France, and more specifically Napoleonic Wars of French Revolution
This movie represents the French commune of Paris, in 1871. After the french lost against the Germans, the 3rd Republic was created but the people of Paris which has been siege by the Germans decided to revolt. The french came to stop this commune and killed them. I think that's what happened because i didn't have a big time to learned it.
It’s good to make it clear that Les Miserables is about the July Revolution of 1830, an insurrection that has created a constitutional monarchy, and not about French Revolution, aweasome edit btw
🎵🎵Do you hear the people sing, singing the song of angry men. It is the music of the people who will not be slaves again. When the beating of your heart echos the beating of the drums there's a life about to start when tomorrow comes.🎵🎵 Lyrics
