Thread Name: Greatest Anti-War Song Ever?
Subject: RE: Greatest Anti-War Song Ever?
Waltzing Matilda is the one that moves me the most.
Another favourite is one where every verse starts: He was only fifteen. and the first line of the choruis is: And the sergeant said "Son, you must shoulder your gun." I haven't yet found the title for, or, the writer's name for this song. Can anybody help please?
Another favourite is a song re WW1 by Barry Wake, (a local singer/ songwriter) called 'Tomorrow's Sun'.
