  • This song was written in 1965. I graduated June, by November I had lost 11 of my friends who had just graduated. We were old enough to go to war and die for the USA but we were not allowed to vote in the USA until we were 21. The war seemed senseless and Pres. Johnson was playing games with the lives of innocent kids. Barry McGuire said it like it was. If you didn't live during that time, you have NO idea what the feelings were..I am just glad we survived with our emotions still in tact.

  • Only great songs can last generations and the point still hits home. The lyrics to this song are amazing and so true.

  • first i thought this was sung by Bob Dylan (with his modern day voice^^)

  • The USA is a country of War lovers that are fooled into believing that these wars are necessary. They are making the defense contractors billions and killing our youth. Get out of these stupid wars and nation building. Build our own Nation. No wonder the world hates America.VOTE FOR RON PAUL!!!!

  • pls rate my protest song anno 2011

  • porno pietje en kleine pop we missen je zo

    zelfs ken zou zich om draaien in haar graf!!!!!

  • @txsugarbear well said, mate. born in '71. my generation has never been asked to sacrifice the way those boys did. live on.

  • This is a good song in reference to the drooling imbeciles who are denying that global warming is a scientifically proven fact. No need to change the lyrics, really, it applies to those idiots perfectly.

  • @suziQ27 ummm...its from a Tim O'brien story. I have never been to war

  • @kingnat2

    not so.

    you did what you had to do, and that was/is extremely brave~

    never allow anyone to make you feel any differently.

  • @txsugarbear and for that sir I thank you...if it wasnt for your generation we wouldnt have it as good as we do nowadays. Again I thank you

  • just realized; "the eastern world is not exploding" is fairly broad from an american standpoint. It can refer literally to europe and africa as east, but it it can refer to asia despite the fact that the shortest way to get to china, japan, tailand, indian, etc would be westward travel. Considering the nature of language it can refer to any part of the world to a flexible enough mind
