@jlbrown97 Thank you for your comments.

Poor choice of music for a Tragedy! Why don't the British see the connection of this Tragedy and one event 23 years earlier?

The British Naval blockade killed 750,000 German civilians in the winter of 1917. Do you think that they could forget that?

Besides, all war is for profit of the likes of the Rothchilds, Rockfellers and the global elite. R.I.P. to the citizen slaves of all the world killed by the REAL BASTARDS!

@marinello6 Its a perfect choice of music its what was listened to at the time if you listen to the words you will see that they are about the Blitz and the war hoping it will all end soon.

My mother, and my grandparents, lived through this. My mother dodged gunfire from a Luftwaffe fighter while returning from school; schoolfriends down the road were killed in an air air-raid when their house was incendiary-bombed.

And, yes, there was unimaginable suffering on both sides. Germans did not choose to be Germans, let alone choose to be Nazis, just as we in Britain had no choice but to be British. Ordinary Dresdeners and Berliners also suffered greatly in a senseless and brutal war

[aqueoustransition]

it is TOTALLY unjust to blame an entire nation for the decisions of a handful of people in the second world war. Soldiers fighting for Germany were doing exactly the same as soldiers fighting for Britain... they may not have even believed in with what they were fighting for, but they had no option.

This is especially beautiful when you watch it with addition sound effects like explosions or fires. Behind all the chaos, you can still hear the hopeful voices singing. Even in terrible times like these, humanity will always pull through.

some comments are beyond belief ,, great choice of music for this video, Vera Lynn very fitting , and also yes Londoners did use the underground to take cover,, I have too many family members from that era to confirm it ,,, Also as jbmilitarycollector pointed out , the photo and footage evidence, says it all !!!

@frankophille This is just another example of contreversies that have plagued our modern day society. Why don't you do some REAL research before you make assumptions about things that you hardly know anything about?
