This was a great version of what is basically a simple folk song of an epic battle that took the lives of millions of civilians & soldiers on both sides. And a song that to me also sounds nostalgically romantic. Always one of my 20 favorite songs. And I had several relatives lose their lives in the war fighting with Italian regiments alongside the Germans. They never made it back to Lucania in Southern Italy.

wish he didnt look like he was having fun playing this song... its so powerful and soul wrentching

I heard broken pieces of this on an FM station in 1975. I was a college student specializing in Soviet history. I only had a few bits of lyrics to go on ( no internet remember ). I just HAD to have this song ! I would go to record shops and tell the owners the lyrics, but Al Stewart was virtually unknown in the States. Finally one owner smiled knowingly and that is the day I discovered the brilliance of Al Stewart.

TOUR YOUR HOMELAND MAN! I WANNA SEE YOU WITH ME DAD! im 19

oh well, we will not see the likes of that song again in my lifetime.

from what point of view was it written? good question, but my guess is Russian. A Russian soldier who was captured by the Germans and then sent back to "Holy Russia" at the end of the war where he was no longer trusted by that paranoid Stalin bastard.

Those lyrics have been haunting my soul for almost 40 years. It is one of the most intelligent and literate songs ever written.

Awesome, thank you!!! Do you have a time stamp? It looks like Dave still has a bit of weight packed on, so maybe 2009 or early 2010?
You upload great videos; it's much appreciated and keep 'em coming. Many thanks.
