Check out a song I wrote about an American soldier who survives Vietnam, only to lose his son in Iraq. When you open the video, you can view the lyrics by clicking on "about this video" to the right of the screen.
Now, from watching the news and from lots of postings I've seen on youtube I get the feeling the majority of Americans are not for the war. What a frustrating situation all around for a whole lot of people..
I'm not an american, but I am sympathetic to the frustration you must feel. "some of us spoke out from the beginning, others are beginning to see the light" this line kinda really hit me. I am reminded of just before the iraq invasion, when the canadian government decided we would not be a part of the American led coalition without UN approval. My work lost some big American contracts because of that decision, to the point some people were eventually laid off.
Great song! I LOVE your style, you remind me so much of the late great Johnny Cash, but I also hear a little John Stewart too, but you are still a unique individual guy with a lot of talent, and a pretty nice Martin!
I always say the Martin plays better than I do... John Stewart is actually one of my favorites. Not everyone remembers him, but he was a huge influence on a whole generation of songwriters.
well written question
