========= Soldier Of Heaven LYRICS ==========
I won’t be coming home
I won’t be going anywhere
I will guard this post forever
Here on the alpine slope where I did my final stand I shall remain
Among the ice and snow that binds me to this mountain
A force of nature too strong, sent from above
Where spirits lead the way, the winds will never fade
White Friday, I’ll take the
Stairway to heaven
I’m sky high, when I die
I’ll be immortal
Forever, I never
I won´t return to
Blood Mountain, I am the
Soldier of heaven
I saw the end of war
I watched the soldiers come and go
And I kept my watch forever
So many brave men fell in the battles that were raging down below
I have seen it all but none will hear my story
All of these years I have been frozen in time
I cried for spring to come but here, winter remain
I always dreamed that I would, serve high above
Where spirits lead the way, the winds will never fade
========= Historic Fact =============
High above in the alps close to heaven, in the most extreme circumstances, men fought and protected the borders during WWI. At 23:30 on April 17, 1916, the Italians, who were up against the Austro-Hungarian Empire, detonated 5,000kg of Nitro-Gelatine to secure the Col di Lana summit.

@tekumeku2244 2 года назад

Some historical context: Aside from the Italian Alps front, this song is referencing 2 particular events. "White Friday" was a series of avalanches that caused the deaths of 10,000 soldiers from all sides when all was said and done. "Blood Mountain" was the nickname given to a multi-year long struggle for 1 mountain (Col di Lana) in which neither side had any clear winner. Its tragic that the front is not talked about as much as it should be considering how hard both sides fought in the region. Thank Sabaton for immortalizing and honoring those sacrifices in song.

As the great-grandson of Tyrolean Kaiserjäger this means so much to me. Plus, the fact that it was published on the day of the "Drei Könige / Befana" is particularly special. In Tyrol we speak 4 main languages, and my family has been divided on both sides of the Alps, so the message of peace is always so very important, whether you swear allegiance to the Empire or to the Republic.

He served as an Alpino. Even if he survived, the war never left him.

Man, I wish your songs didn't make me sad 90% of the time. Such a bop, but so sad... "I will guard this post forever" is such a powerful line. It reminds me of the last verse in a Vazov poem, called "The new cemetery over Slivnitsa" about a decrepit and abandoned military cemetery he visited. " Rest here, under these tombs of ice You won't hear again a clarion or a chief Or the thunders of your glorious fights. Your final march is towards eternity - Heroes, rest in peace" The entire poem is very beautiful and my translation would, obviously, not do it justice, but it's exactly what this song reminds me of: People who just died and were forgotten - only their mothers felt their absence and remembered their names. it's just ridiculously sad. I also love how the WW1 planes in the video transition into WW2 planes.

White Friday, as they say in the chorus, refers to an avalanche that killed many austro-hungarian soldiers in 1916. The same day, other avanches killed other soldiers, both austro-hungarian and italian. I think that this song is dedicated to these forgetten soldiers too. They fell in the field although not in combat and they're heroes like the others.

My great grandfather was a Hauptmann (equivalent of capitan) in the slovenian homeguard regiments of the austro-hungarian hungarian army. He was present in 10 of 12 battles of Isonzo. When he returned home he burned his uniforn, insignia and medal. The only story he shared was of a battle when italian troops were attacking up a ridge under them and they were shooting down on them them like they were rabbits (his words). When they ran out of ammunition they started hurling rocks and boulders towards them and managed to repel the attack. He told his wife that no matter how much he prays his ticket to hell is already booked. Italian lads had the "luxury" of going directly to hell but he had to live with what he saw and did for another 50 years. In his words: i cannot find a valid reason what was the point of it. My generation did what we did, noone of us is proud of it. Your generation must realize what to do of it. The least you can do is trust us to never do it again...

A mountain where nobody will ever live, where no resources can be extracted, where no value can be found outside of a slightly more advantageous position and moving a line on a political map. And when the Italians finally win on one mountain, thinking finally they can move on from this hell, they realize there are more mountains the Austro-Hungarians have dug into.

Its a song that pays homage to the many nameless souls that were lost in the "War to end all wars." Absolute legend, Sabaton! ❤️

'Soldier of Heaven' is yet another testament to Sabaton's talent and their ability to create music that is both powerful and meaningful. It's a song that gives me chills and fills me with a sense of pride. Thank you, Sabaton, for delivering another amazing piece of metal mastery

The Italians and Austro-Hungarians fought on those peaks; trench warfare in the alps. With the diabolical Luigi Cadorna as general, nearly 700,000 Italians were sent to their deaths trying to fight a literal uphill battle against machine-guns and artillery for the first time. Truly the most brutal (and forgotten) front in the entirety of World War One. And in the end, the British Empire (my country) never gave them the land they were promised after the war was won. These heroes were lost for nothing. Great song, I, most certainly, will never forget the Italian front. 🇮🇹🤝🇬🇧

@avp1874 2 года назад

I thank you for very much for keeping the memory alive, and for sharing your opinion here for those to learn from. You never really see any love to the actual battles, mostly just to Sabaton (even though they still certainly deserve the praise).

I feel a large problem with the UK in World War style peace treaties, it has too many allies, and it realistically needs to provide for itself. Take WW1, do you help Italy or Serbia USA or Japan? These questions, these choices eventually led to the hate and discontent that led to the rise of men like Mussolini and Tojo. Small choices may seem insignificant at times, but they can always cause a large effect.

@samphillips8188 2 года назад

@@lordbonney9779 And the lack of coherent aim for the entente on what this peace would be? Rehabilitative or Punitive? In addition, the same problem the UK, and other Western powers felt in decolonization. Look at the Kingdom of Yugoslavia. Too many ethnic groups with no structures to make them feel represented

Sabaton vi ringrazio per questa canzone, sono italiano è sono molto colpito da come siete riusciti a rendere epico un evento drammaticamente significativo per l’Italia e per l’Austria. Perciò non posso che congratularvi con voi per aver reso onore con questo brano a quei soldati che hanno perso la vita su quella montagna e spero che continuate così. Un saluto dall’Italia Sabaton thank you for this song, I am Italian and I am very impressed by how you managed to make epic a dramatically significant event for Italy and Austria.

I’ve never listened to Sabaton before. But from what I’ve gathered so far, the leader singer has the energy of Freddy mercury, the closest physical appearance of chuck lidell, and the vocal strength of Ivan moody from 5FDP, and it’s honestly a pretty great mixup. I’m quite intrigued by this songs energy.

Sabaton is hands down my favorite band. In a world hellbent on tearing itself apart and history dies in darkness, Sabaton brings little pieces of it back to light. Their sound is absolutely incredible. I can listen to Steel Commanders and metal out, or I can listen to Soldier of Heaven and be moved to tears. They may just be one of the most if not the most important band alive.

@doomer9119 Год назад

It was always my dream to be a history teacher and perhaps a historian and I had to leave it because of some problems in my life, but since I started listening to Sabaton, it's as if something inside me turned on again, which has pushed me to go back to study, to immerse myself in the books and history that I enjoy so much. Thanks guys, you are the metal, the history and the memory!

@montishaya Год назад

I just found Sabaton today. Grew up on Ronnie James Dio, Iron Maiden, Savatage, Helloween, Manowar. My favorite songs and bands told stories, inspired and taught me something I didn't know before. I'm happy to see a contemporary band carrying on this marvelous tradition. Very happy to have found this band.

As an italian, and extremely respectful of our austro-hungarian adversaries I am so thankful to you for remembering and immortalizing the uniqueness of the fight these men fought, at such height, against nature and every odds, in a sector of the front that was so many times forgotten by the sheer vastity of a conflict such as WW1. "Thank you!" for honouring such a small but precious memory, that is all I can say!
