"Glory to the Brave" is a song by the Swedish power metal band HammerFall, from the album Glory to the Brave, released as a single on October 20, 1997. On this release there are four songs. One was recorded live, one is a radio edit and two are a bonus track from a previous studio album, which can only be found on special copies.
The band say that the lyrics in this song are a tribute to long lost friends who died too early. "Even though they are not around anymore, they have a place in my heart forever." The dedication to Klas Fors, is to Joacim's grandfather, who died before the recording.
