How's the rest of it going Harvey?

Many years ago (as a callow youth) I discovered Harvey's shattering song "Death Come Easy". From a lyric and melodic sense it was easy to learn, but from an emotional point of view it was a hard one to sing.

Here's Harvey's post from today

Can we have a name for attribution, or should we just credit it to "Anon."?

no..it's just an exercise in exorcism I suppose. I always find the discipline of writing translates ones feelings into a concrete form. It's only 18 words but it seems like a chorus that needs no verses and is therefore a round.I suggest you make your own tune.

All too true, guest. You should put it in the "New Songs for 9/11" thread.

young men die
mothers mourn
fathers weep
children born
stories told
vengeance sworn
young men die
mothers mourn
