@alanbstard4 I would love to see you try tell them that back in 1916 I am not going to war would be followed by being shot on the spot

@BUTZDJSUPERSONIC WHAT?????

[reangerer]

@BUTZDJSUPERSONIC It was followed by prison for the common man, you're thinking of a deserting soldier.

Well I think this is just the right tempo for such a melancholy song and the subject matter.

[alanbstard4]

it's all very well people making anti war music, but how about we tell the politicians we ain't going to war?

Thanks for posting it. Not only is this one of the best anti-war songs ever written, Shane's melancholy inflection is just right for the subject.

Sung far too slow for my taste.
