As great of a singer, a performer, as wonderful as a writer and as much clowning he is doing the tune he means everything he is singing with monumental conviction even through times of unbalance

Amazing song.

@puldrection very well put. drafted in 1970, this was edgy, but then, so was a lot of higher concious crap.

The song is about the dilemma faced by the armed forces chaplain(sky pilot). He is faced with the problem of trying to give encouragement to soldiers whose job it is to kill, while he must live with his credo of "Thou shalt not kill". It was powerful then and it still is. Real life stuff.
OMG I lost my heart to that badboy when I first saw him in a British INvasion film in about 1967.
One of the BEST VOICES EVER!!!
