The Music of World War II
8As a history enthousiast I decided to make a compilation of numerous songs originating from the second world war. I included songs of the Allies (mostly British or American) and the Axis (German). The primary focus lays on songs which were played/sung by the solders of the war, thus this can go from marching songs to relaxing songs. It's only a personal selection.
This video is pure for entertainment/historical purposes. I does not state any political standpoints or ideology.
The video illustrates a German Uboat (Type VIIC) with footage I recorded from the videogame "Uboat". It's an interesting historical management game, where the player takes control of a German Uboat. The game is still in Alpha and is available on Steam.
Take note that I do not own a gaming pc, this video is made with a middle class laptop.
