♫ EDELWEISS (EDELWEIß) ♫

[SWENSS0N]

@djkandahar69 well spoken! And a happy new year

[Calidore1]

fantastic song, fantastic sentiments.

[BENNYSIEGEL90]

Only SS-boys able to stand gold were Dietrichs boys and Steiner's finns. Check out Pyhtiä and Könönen if you want to see how real men fight in winter. Russians had the siberians, germans had Leibstandarte and finns.

[AR15DAN]

Go mountain troops!



[EDMARTINTX]

The Edelweiss flower became a symbol for Waffen SS Alpine divisions in WWII and was made into a metal badge to be worn on the left side of their mountain caps. Also an Edelweiss patch sewn onto their caps. BUT here the English Translation of this song: Very lonely and

At a rock wall,

Pride under a blue sky

A small little flowers standing.

I could 'not resist

I broke the little flower,

And it gave the most beautiful,

Heart beloved maiden. SEE the rest on "Soladatenlieder".

THE 4TH REICH IS RISING

[rommel110]

mientras mas la oigo mas me gusta

la musica y las canciones no son culpables de loque hace el hombre

[alphatotheomega7]

For being so hardcore, the Nazis sure had some gay and lighthearted songs. Really, all of them have lyrics about girls and flowers.

[EvilKorbinDallas]

@alphatotheomega7 No, its just the media portraying them as EVIL EVIL WASISTS!..

[alphatotheomega7]

@EvilKorbinDallas True. Did you see Warhorse? It was the worst movie I've ever seen about World War I. All the British soldiers were noble hearted heros, while most Germans were portrayed as cackling Nazi cartoon villains. Such an incredible disappointment.

[EvilKorbinDallas]

@alphatotheomega7 What do you expect from SpielBERG... *Cough* Jew...

[JackTiger9]

Nazis tried to stop the Jewish led NWO from taking over Germany. That is why they are villified and demonized today. Wake up you brainwashed suckers.

[JackTiger9]

The Allies killed far more people in prison camps than the Nazis. Do you history and stop listening to NWO media lies. The NWO hates Nazis because National Socialism is the world's best defense from the Globalist Judeo-Capitalist NWO that is trading your jobs to China.

[TheHasanMurat]

Goddamn drunken Fritz

[ichrammsteinfan]

@redshocktrooperrst this was made as a marching song jacknut plenty of songs back in those days were to remind the men of home and what they were fighting to protect, so hush and let the soldiers sing about home

[littledutchboy1996]

was this called the edelweiss division? what division did this song belong to? someone please inform me :)

[TheUrboy1991]

@littledutchboy1996 the full title of the song is Es war ein Edelweiss, and it was composed for the Wehrmacht Heer, or the German Army Land Forces

[Zanator1]

SIEG HAIL! LONG LIVE NAZI GERMANY!

[RedShocktrooperRST]

@Zanator1 You are aware you've just saluted the worst bunch of bastards to... what amounts to a love song, correct?

[Zanator1]

@RedShocktrooperRST Its a marchign song.... Bastards becouse oyu say so... Had they won, you owuld have been the bastard!

[RedShocktrooperRST]

@Zanator1 Well, there is not a single reference to Nazism, unless you count Hitler's Favorite Flower, and then you look up the lyrics...

...Yeah, this song's about giving flowers to a loved one.

[Zanator1]

@RedShocktrooperRST Yeah, and its a marching song....

[AdamForExample]

The only ones using German WWII songs today is the French Foreign Legion but of course its in french. after WWII alot of germans joined the Legion and they brought their traditions with them. thats why i want to join the legion

[TheRussellnificent]

DAST IST FANTASTICH!

[sakuraxms]

this is not wut i thought it was gonna be siiigh im stupid i thought it was gonna be edelweiss from the sound of music song -_-|||

[jimmyxx3]

@sakuraxms

Don't worry, this edelweiss song sure makes me want to sing along aswell, just as beautiful but in a different way, i love both of them.

[sakuraxms]

@jimmyxx3 yeah it is ^_^ i did enjoy it because im german and i respect it alot its really happy sounding and i also like both of them i just thought it was the other one <3 thnks ^_^

[jimmyxx3]

@sakuraxms

Great to hear you respect such beautiful songs, such songs like these should still be used today, something that you can sing together with an arm over the shoulders of your comerads smiling.

[sakuraxms]

@jimmyxx3 yeah i agree tht would be awesome like in school well in english anyway ^_^ and thnks and yeah they should be used now a days it would be great to hear our soldiers sing this.thats a great thought to think about we need to remember and respect what we had long ago.

[videocanone]

Nationalism is good because it gives people an identity and gives them unity. Internationalism is bad because it makes everyone a useless eater with no direction. I'll take Germany Identity, NSDAP or otherwise over any UN namby pamby soulless mulatoization and babalonian bullshit any day of the week !

[MoustaphaWins]

@videocanone

Wisdom, my friend!

[ybunnygurl]

You have to give it to the Nazi party, they could really wright good marching songs.

[Anonymarine]

@ybunnygurl did you even bother with the translation? its still a good song. Hell, if you want to get technical, old old slovak,hungarian etc folk-songs spawned back in the 1800's are viewed as fascist because of their extemist nationalism, the same can be said of any country's folk songs, especially where they encourage pride. This song is really quite innocent! ^_^ about a flower growing at the mountaintop, and a flower growing in the valley!

[rudiherold84]

Schoenes Lied!!!

[CAsovjetCA]

@person607 you can be offended because it's german music from the period 39-45 so it's nazi

[jimmyxx3]

@CAsovjetCA

Are you retarded?

How could a song about a flower growing in the mountains supposed to be offensive?

[spiros66]

@jimmyxx3 --At last a logical Youtuber ! Thanks my friend!

[jimmyxx3]

@spiros66

Haha thankyou :)

Although i find it rather obvious cause i speak German myself, either I'm logical or their just real dumbass's XD

This isn't even a Nazi song whether the Wehrmacht marched to it or not, cause the Wehrmacht wasn't even a Nazi orginization it was sort of like todays Bundswehr.

[nimbalo300]

@jimmyxx3 it was song by the edelwiß divison of the gebirsjäger

[pigcanfly007]

This is Edelweiss??

[randomgreen13]

@pigcanfly007 there is another song called adelweiss from the sound of music :)

[iceblue345]

we played this at a recorder concert in elementery school..Is that conciderd Nazism or supporting the Nazi party?

[person607]

@iceblue345 I wouldn't think so, but some people are just way too sensitive. Its a song about a flower, how could anyone be offended!

[jimlad87]

ach bin udder vahn audershwellten! Iche reikkonnervise das libberachen :)

[ArfPaws]

No wonder the SS boys had a smile when they marched with this stuff!

[Neal913]

For your information djkandahar69, the Song Edelweiss was not written by the Nazi Party. It was written by an Austrian.

[1811FranzLiszt]

I do not like the nazis but this music is very beautiful...

[jeff62rey]

Ich wohne im Amerka, aber meine Grosseltern kam aus Bayern und bin Ich sehr stolz

auf Deutschland. Ich musste so viel Deutschland bereisen! Hoffenlich willt es bald zu sein!! Ich mochte im Obama's Amerika sterben!

[brunoblood]

Gott mit uns..

[makmecrazy09]

wish I knew what they where singing in english...

[mikes47jeep]

@makmecrazy09 a rough translation

Forlorn and all abandoned, On a cliff face that loomed High,

reaching for the blue sky, A tiny flower bloomed.

I just could not resist it, I picked it where it grew,

And gave it to the dearest That my heart ever knew

[mikes47jeep]

@makmecrazy09 verse 2

She wore with pride and honour, It on her Sunday best.

She knows this little, tiny star A man's heart cheers the best.

Just for my sake she wore it, And it does make me proud,

'cause of this little flower, Two hearts each other vowed

[gregoification]

orea komatia bravo spiro

[38dragoon38]

This version is 10 times better that the John Denver and Julie Andrews version!!! Those 2 wouldn't have lasted 5 minutes in the Gebirgsjager.

[yvesguilland]

das original Ton, wunderbar, ich danke dir für diesem schön Lied, für immer da. . . in Herz, danke Kameraden. . Sieg.. .

please do go listen to your gummy bear gay tech music and leave the history to people who actually appreciate it

[PaulTGuise]

Why did you even post then?

[vanlentrobert]

Ik was 6 jaar(1942) dit liedje ken ik nog zeer goed toen de duitsers in onze stad verbleven!!!

[lucius1976]

Really? But it is more a Gebirgsjäger song. Not many mountains in Netherlands.

[Maryheart93]

Bellissimaaaaa!!!!!!!!!! Grazie spiros66 per queste canzoni...è sempre un'emozione ascoltarle per me, soprattutto perchè..... mi vengono in mente tutti i ragazzi caduti, dei quali onoro la dolce memoria.......................­...............grazie.....=)

[libertango100]

FASCISTA !!!

[Maryheart93]

ma và........ Hai letto bene quello che ho scritto? Fatti un giro a Costermano và e visto che mi dai della fascista vallo a dire anche a quelli che stanno a Redipuglia. Forse capirai.

[13candygurl]

ja thes ist g'ud!

wehrmucht na-me els veden von herinner de's lon mine koffen kommdant!!.

[Ahnentreue]

Sehr schönes Soldatenlied!

[djkandahar69]

This could be compared to the River Kwai March, but i bet this doesn't get that much respect because the "Nazis" made this. But in my opinion this is one of the best war songs ever.

10/10

[stygn]

@djkandahar69 I agree... A bit poor audio, but this is some of the good stuff the Third Reich brought to the world. Sure, they had some strange policies, but they did have great music : ) I enjoy much of music the Third Reich brought fourth and popularized. I not a nazi, you're not a nazi, we just like good music : )

[TheSavonsonni64]
