First Aid Kit - Universal Soldier (Buffy-Sainte Marie)
Loading...
Uploaded by jagadambarecords on Jul 15, 2009
This protest song was written in the early sixties by Buffy Sainte-Marie. It's about individual responsibility for war. We wanted to sing this song because, unfortunately, what Buffy sang about at her time is still is so true today and will probably be so for years to come. We changed the lyrics a bit to make it more relevant to today's society.
Enjoy. :)

@Harbingerz1 of course people are always the problem, whether they kill each other for religion, politics or whatever else. I still think religion plays a big role in a lot of conflicts in the world, because it is one of the things that make people different from one another. and as we all know, being different, in some people's eyes, is enough to hate and persecute others. just one more drawer to stick people in. and, sadly, religion and politics go together hand in hand too much still nowadays

@marcusrun Donovan did a popular cover version, but it was written by Buffy Sainte-Marie.
