GUEST,JimP Lyr Req: One Tin Soldier (53* d) RE: Lyr Req: One Tin Soldier 28 Nov 06


A good tune, but I have to agree with those who find it much too preachy. I find that, unfortunately, many anti-war songs share this defect; when I hear someone singing (usually with great bathos) Cranes Over Hiroshima, or And the Band Played Waltzing Matilda, I just cringe. On the other hand, Brave Nelson ("May the lord put an end / To the cruel old wars ...") never fails to reduce me to tears.
