Both Ian Campbell's "The Sun is Burning" and Nazim Hikmet's (sp?) "Hiroshima" are, in my view, (FWIW) both much more powerful songs than several listed there. To me, the list looks like one of songs that achieved commercial success at some time or other and there are probably other more deserving entries.
