Thread Name: Spanish Civil War Songs: Who Sings What?
Subject: RE: Spanish Civil War Songs: Who Sings What?

I don't think Yellow Roses qualifies as a Spanish Civil War song; it was written in the early 1960s by Trevor Peacock & popularised by Adam Faith. The context of the Spanish Civil War has been attached to it retrospectively, but I'm not aware that it was written with that in mind.
