I think this is an incredibly poignant piece of music, the innocent voices of the children not understanding the stark truth of man's mortality.

I wonder where the kids are or what theyre doing now, well; I know what one is doing and where he is, lol

Thanks for upping this vid; its the first time Ive seen it, sad really, seeing as I was in it all those years ago

@Firefused you never got a copy? I am very sorry. Are you non-union? 

[Ghoopty]

@EarpJohn I'm sorry.....you may be right. I have the first cd release and it's not on there, presumably because Keith West wouldn't allow it.

[EarpJohn]

@Ghoopty It is included!

What was the ridiculous reason why this song was not included on the CD re-issues?

Hallo Herr Wirtz. Ihre liebe Mutter habe ich Ende der 70 er Jahre oft mit dem Taxi von der Praxis nach Köln zum Einkaufen gefahren. Ein mal lief Teenage Opera im Autoradio. Sie sagte das Sie das Lied geschrieben ( oder die Musik ) hätten.Sie gab mir immer 10,- DM damit ich beim Brauhaus Früh, während der Wartezeit, was essen konnte. 10,- DM war viel. Dafür mußte ich 2 Std. arbeiten. Frechen habe ich aus den Augen verloren. Wohne seit 1981 am Bodensee.

Liebe Grüße Detlev.K

@veit56211de Ich hab von 1974 bis 1981 in Frechen Taxi gefahren. Von der Praxis Dr. Wirtz habe ich viele gute Fahrten bekommen. Alle paar Wochen habe ich Fr. Dr. Wirtz nach Köln zum Einkaufen gefahren. Sie hat mir dann immer 10,- DM gegeben damit ihr während ich auf sie gewartet habe beim Brauhaus Früh was essen konnte. Das waren liebe Menschen.

Ich habe das Lied immer sehr gerne gehört. Ende 1970 habe ich eine Frau Dr. Wirtz im Taxi gefahren.

Das Lied lief im Autoradio. Sie sagte das Ihr Sohn das Lied oder die Musik geschrieben hat. So genau weiß ich das nicht mehr.

@rainhills There are four ancient provinces of Ireland, Munster, Leinster, Conaught and Ulster all which are part of Ireland. I am English but married to a Tipperary girl aka a Munster girl. Bloody Sunday was dreadful but no more so than the attacks on teenagers in Birmingham. What the hell was that all about? Catholics versus Protestants? And vica versa. Ulstermen and women of all demoninations would be horrified if you called them anything other than Irish.

@arsenalml You obviously have some sort of sexual hang-up - what's sex got to do with it? All the things I listed happened in the "real world" and I only sympathise with the innocent people who were killed - whatever race, creed or religion - and by whichever "side" they were murdered. No, I'm not a republican nor an IRA sympathiser - I'm a people sympathiser.
