En Livstid i Krig – The Thirty Years War – Sabaton History 034
The Swedish version of 'Lifetime of War' is called En Livstid i Krig and has a different perspective on the Thirty Years War than its English counterpart. The song is about the many men and women who were born during the Thirty Years War, lived through the war and most possibly also died in that war.
