Le régiment de Sambre et Meuse - Military March of the French Republic - English Sub

[frenchflush]

Love this song: we can feel the dreams of the young republicans leaving centuries of darkness (under the kings rules) behind them!

VIVE LA LIBERTE!

@frenchflush

+1000 ^^ :-)

[FlierFrank172]

When the French get intractable and irritating, I try and remember Lafayette. It helps.  I would have changed one thing about the way Eisenhower handled the entry into Paris..........American troops would have marched in first. I think they earned it.

[cumbas]

@FlierFrank172

1a)

?

It's not only one man & only Lafayette who help you non-educated "old" American (stop to watch your deceptive & retarded American propagandist movies from Hollywood as "The Patriot" for example...) but a whole country, the whole France, with much more monnay (& us without ask to you after this monnay & its interests as you done with us after the WW1 for example) with much more guns, more soldiers & our whole Navy "La Royale"

[cumbas]

@FlierFrank172

2a-end)

Our whole Navy who is the true winner of your "Independance War" by its main and the most important final victory vs the English "Royal Navy"

Without France the USA dont exist quite simply & you would prostrate yourself in front of an old English queen nowadays

SO YES, you are right to forget never that...

BUT as the French will forget never your big help in the WW2...

^^ :-)

[frenchflush]

@FlierFrank172 I agree that they earned it and I think (as french) that they should have entry first!

About my country (France): I know that it has (like all the countries) defaults & qualities. The point is to remember the good ones I think. When I look at my people today, obsessed by their salaries, I donno what became to thoses thousands of french proud old & youngs moustaches charging with a smile for the LIBERTY?

I dont agree with him in nothing...

"the French get intractable and irritating,".... ??!!

What this joke ?!

Just a stereotypical American point of view when an allie & especially France so, is not agree with the actions & decisions of the USA...

Easy false & only American point of view...

France & the USA are the older democracies allies in the world , YES

But France was not, is not & will no be NEVER the older... vassal... of the USA to follow always their decisions!

[FlierFrank172]

Ohio who?  ROLL TIDE !

[02BuckeyeProduction]

OH- Go buckeyes!

[theohiostateguy]

Go Buckeyes!

[cumbas]

@theohiostateguy

"Buckeyes" ???

[theohiostateguy]

@cumbas The Ohio State University Marching Band performs this while marching and creating script Ohio on the field. Their nickname is the Buckeyes.

Great march!

[cumbas]

@theohiostateguy

ah OK

[PARVEENAAM]

VIVE LA FRANCE!!!

[historyman4773]

When we played this in High School Band it was called "French National Defile".

[cumbas]

@historyman4773

'"French National defilé" ?? LOL

why not is is not the 1st time that the USA change the History & call & see the facts like they want ^^

But of course this "title" dont exist and this true title is in fact "Le Régiment de Sambre et Meuse" for a tribute to this French Army & the victory of Fleurus in 1792

This Military music tribute was created more of 80 years after in 1879 ^^

[cumbas]

@historyman4773

But nice of course that you played this French military music in your high School :-)

& actually it is one of the most played French Military Music in the world ;-)

[Jelennuie]

@historyman4773

We palyed it as well. It is published as French National in the US and Sambre et Meuse in Europe.

[Crahonne]

Depuis Vimy jusqu'à l'Afgha, en passant par la Libération, force et honneur aux furieux de la Belle Province !!

De mon côté, je suis soldat à la Brigade Franco-Allemande : il est grand temps de construire, la France et l'Allemagne ont fait assez de bêtises comme ça (avec aussi les Anglais qui ne sont pas les derniers, pour les bêtises...)

[Crahonne]

"Le régiment de Sambre et Meuse, Marchait toujours au cri de liberté..."

My batallion often uses this march for its parades !

[rdemaisfighter]

Je suis un soldat canadien et je suis un fantassin du regiment de maisonneuve à montreal. Sambre et Meuse est notre musique de marche depuis la seconde guerre mondial lorsque nous avons libérer des plusieur ville en france.

[Crahonne]

From Vimy to Afghanistan, and trough liberation of France, strenght and honnor to the furious comrades of Canada !!

I belong myself to the French-German Brigade : our both countries did enough bullshit, it's high time we would finally build something together !

[LeChar1989]

Merci beaucoup!=)

[jlunamatos]

I played this when I was at school, at university too.

Jose , Perú

[Faxe90Swe]

Can someone please tell me the titles of the French marsches played in the movie "Waterloo". I have looked everywhere and are beginning to wonder if they weren´t authentic marsches, but some creation by the film crew.

[cumbas]

I already answered in the past about the musics of this russian movie on Waterloo which has few to see as opposed to what all the Anglo-Saxons say (not astonishing since this vision arranges their propaganda ^^) and even some "francophile" few scholars with the true history of the battle

...

[cumbas]

it's a beautiful film esthetically but it's all that it has of interest for me

he speaks about half of the facts of the battle and of course of those which arrange the Russian author and the financial Anglo-Saxons of this film for their propaganda

[cumbas]

thus, the mostly of musics & marchs of this movie is not really a march alone, it's a medley of several marchs of the 1st Empire

one would say now a "DJ remix" ^^ ;-)

In the more important march during this movie in the French Army, you can hear a medley of "On va leur percer le flanc" & "La victoire est en nous"

[VisionRVB]

it's "la victoire est à nous"

[cumbas]

oops yes of course

sorry for this error of letters ^^

it's 'la victoire est à nous" & not "en nous"

[MaxRWF]

"La Victoire est à nous"

[re6356]

Planquette excelled with this superb march.

[cumbas]

yes it' sure friend

the end of the 19th century and the beginning of 20th were exceptional for the French military and patriotic music (like the period between Revolution & 1st Empire also)

& it's true that this March is one of most beautifull & perhapseven the most beautifull

[cumbas]

omg !! ^^

you are much more things to say about this "details" like this little kingdom of Hanover was the most important actor in the big History... ^^

....

[blackhawknj]

George of Hanover became King George I of the UK in 1714 while retaining his throne in Hanover. However it was a personal union only. When Victoria became Queen in 1837 the Salic Law forbade a female heir to the throne, Hanover separated from the UK, then was annexed by Prussia in 1866

[MrQuebec]

George III, King of Great Britain, was concurrently Duke of Brunswick-Lüneburg and prince-elector of Hanover in the Holy Roman Empire until the 12 October 1814 when the Congress of Vienna enlarge Hanover and made it a kingdom. Hanover was one of the true winners of the napoleonic wars.

[Nervmichblossnet]

I think Hanover was no kingdom. The King of UK was Lord of Hanover at the same time. Thats a difference.

[cumbas]

I think it's just "playing whith the words"

nowadays i think we would call that a "principauté" (a principality) but the principle is the same

"Monaco" or "Andorra" for examples who are small countries independent but under protection of France

Andorra for example is under protection of France and Spain

The president of the French Republic being for example even "Co-prince" of Andorra

[Nervmichblossnet]

Principality is the right word i guess. I agree with your statement so far.

Different thing: Isnt Counting Hannover sepperate from UK a bit funny? It sounds a bit like Hannover was on the same level. But I like the vid. Convinced democrat, too^^

[cumbas]

No discussions possible about it, cose it's trues historical facts :-) :

During this important Battle of French Revolution is quite simply the Austrian Empire allied whith UK and... Hannover ("kingdom" or "Principality" like you want ^^, but it was soldiers of Hannover which fought, allied whith Austrian Emperor and UK king) who attacked the young French Republic to destroy it

it's that the most important to retain and not to know if Hanover were a kingdom or a principality ;-)

[mattlh76]

Vive la liberté et vive la République

[rmorecook]

merci a la Republique de France de America

[cumbas]

Long Live to the 2 oldests Democratics Republic in the World!!!

[hommechauvesouris]

Vive la République!
