Split Enz did not write this song about the Falklands. Musicians should stay out of politics especially the Finns. They forget their audience live in the real world. We deal with enough xxxx without being reminded of it

this is why i get angry when politicians find the wrong msgs in simple songs like 6mialb. it wasnt written at the time of the f. war or anywhere near it.some pm's need lampooning rite bewteen the rite 2 sides of their decision making brain where they think they make the best judgement for their country at stake.

When Mrs Thatcher was the Prime Minister in 1982 the military junta that ruled Argentina occupied the Falkland or (Malvinas) islands. The British sent a task force to recover the islands, which they eventually did but not until at least one ship had been lost to a French built Exocet missile and a British submarine sank an Argentine cruiser (The Belgrano) as it steamed away from the area. This song was a single that Mrs Thatcher's government banned because they said it was parodying the Navy.
