I didn't mean ''Landsknecht'' is a song, they were elite german mercenaries. What i meant is there was a song about them in the 1500s so check it out.

Do you know the title of the landsknecht song?

I'd like to hear it.

14,000 landsknecht were part of larger army of Charles V (Holy Roman Emperor) who sacked Rome in 1527. The sack of Rome was a cluster f**k of epic proportions precipitated in part by the inability of the Empire to make good on its promise to pay the army, including the landsknecht.

The defense of Pope Clement by the Swiss Guard during the sack is commemorated to this very day.


Just for fun a link to a commentary on landsknecht fashion which was the most amazing thing:

It was from watching this video that I first heard the name landsknecht.
