So beautiful, so sad. A novel in a song.
Unsurpassable - absolutely, heart achingly beautiful - there is probably not another artist in the world who could have written this song and made it so spectacularly fabulous.
Jacques Brel perhaps.
Sometimes I think only Richard could end a song of hopeless sadness with such an achingly beautiful guitar piece.
One of the greatest songs by the greatest living songwriter and guitarist. Just beautiful.
Absolute brilliance.
There's noone like him
Way out there in a class of his own. He is the best.
Absolutely!
This man and his marvellous songs. I love him
What a great song, so eerie and engrossing - and what a performance.
One of my favourite RT songs. Jerks the eyes. Rip dad and thanks for serving.
A masterpiece. This song and PJ Harvey's All and Everything, are the most haunting and evocative songs about World War I that I've heard.
We agree!
this is such a great and emotional song that the room goes completely silent even when I perform it!
And if it was in Melford about 15 years ago I'm sure I've heard you perform it! Heard yours before the original :)
And a very good version you did too!
He is a true bard.pure magic
Richard is the greatest.
Hard to hear this without crying
Stunning.
"To get back what we lost in a field in France" suggests that though the language is English this song is about a German corporal, a German squaddie. A searing critique of how war affects little people but also evidence of Richard's overwhelming humanity.
allan james - not necessary as soldiers of all countries 'lost' something. They may have lost their comrades, or their innocence/humanity.
@@honeychurchgipsy6 ww1 ended when an armistice was signed in a railway carriage parked in a field in France. Germany lost territory and suffered terribly for their their leaders' militarism.
@@SuperAllanjames - yes, Germany suffered terribly, but I'm still unsure as to whether RT is speaking about personal/individual loss or speaking, as you believe he might be, about the loss felt by countries.
Who knows - maybe one day we can ask him??
Either way it's a beautiful song.
A haunting novel and an unforgettable moving film captured in this incredible song. Richard you are an artist.
Brilliant,so underrated.
Nice to be in the minority, some times!.
Ow.
