My father, an ex Brigadier with 10 battalions under his command raised 2 battalions with brass and pipe bands based on HM Royal Marines Band winning many Best Marching Bands competitions.
Jim i must have watched this a thousand times never tire of watching thank you im English living in Texas reminds me of home . To be honest i love all your videos .
I saw the movie Bridge on the River Kwai and Sir Alec Guinness would be hard to be equaled. Even when he marched with his troops, the way he held his head, the way he swing his arms. Though the movie is a far cry from the reality of the horrible conditions the prisoners worked under (read the book The Lost Highlander), there's something about the movie that still stays with me after all these years. And I am 71, saw the movie when I was seven and peppered my oldest sister with questions about the Japanese and British troops. Back then it was rare to see a full length movie with mainly British actors.
My father fought; he loved this melody and the movie it's associated with (to this VERY day)!💕 I just wish I'd known the words. He would've lost his mind 🤣🤣🤣🤣...then, "shushed" me when mama asked what was so funny. 😘👍🇺🇲
highly inaccurate film. the Allied Prisoners were treated a great deal worse than the film industry had any intention of showing. read a few books, then sit down and cry
@@dianamarquez4774 ...it takes as much endurance to sit through "Lawrence of Arabia" as it does to actually cross the desert... ...I would like to recommend to you another movie which you might enjoy, much lighter in tone, featuring another well known British actor... ..."The Best of Enemies" (from 1961) is an Italian film starring David Niven and Alberto Sordi, where a British major (David Niven) and an Italian captain (Alberto Sordi) gain mutual respect for each other in 1941 Ethiopia... ...enjoy!...
My great uncle on dads side died as a POW on the Burma death railway. He is buried in a Commonwealth war graves cemetery near the river kwai. His FIVE brothers fought in New Guinea. They took no prisoners.
Sad to say that this year there less then 50 of these brave men left my father was 2/29 Battalion at the fall and was sent with F Force on the Burma May they RIP. your sacrifice will never be forgotten ❤🇦🇺

There's a video featuring recruits to the Royal Marines band. If accepted they learn how to play a second instrument; a brass player will learn a woodwind instrument and vice versa. I think they're trained to be medics for combat duties. A pretty good career.
@@geoffpoole483 In the musical theatre it is commonplace for a "pad" to require its player to play two or three different instruments. Unsurprisingly, you will find a lot of ex-forces musicians in theatre bands, and very good they are too.

BRAVO GENTLEMEN BRAVO WELL DONE WELL PLAYED AND I CAN'T TELL YOU HOW GOOD IT FEELS TO HEAR THIS ONE MORE TIME. GENTLEMAN NEVER STOP NEVER GIVE UP ALWAYS KEEP PLAYING SO WELL PLAYED.!!!!!!
Watched the movie several times and got my students in Junior High in Ghana to watch in school. Yes the WW2 was not much of an African ideological war despite our engagement and involvement in the many war theaters. I wanted them to learn the many morals that the movie teaches and i'm glad they did. Salute to men who sacrifice for others.
The movie "Bridge on the River Kwai" is highly recommended. I saw it in a drive-in theater in California during its initial release over 60 years ago. The Colonel Bogey March was whistled by the British prisoners as they marched in key scenes. Unforgettable, as was Alec Guiness's performance.
@@mafirearmsafety Setting the scene: I was 5 with my 10-year old brother in the back seat; our parents were 35. Our ride was a 1955 Dodge station wagon. The drive-in was somewhere near Pasadena, CA.
What a rendition. Once again so many thx. My father-in-law was a royal marine commando How proud am I. As always, thank the dear Lord they are on our side The pride is almost touchable !!
It is painful to recollect past memories.Always 😢appreciated, thanks for bringing the sweet memories of the past times, missed ❤but can never forget. Thankd once again.
It has nothing to do with salvation. God could care less. Eternity will not be about any of us or what we have done. It will all be about Jesus Christ who died on a cross to save us from our sins. We all deserve hell and then the lake of fire on Judgement day.
oh wow!!! i have not enjoyed anything that much in a long time. I played baritone in High School, and in the Texas Aggie band (where we did Colonel Bogey). Thank you Jim Ramsay for marching along with the Baritones. I am church pianist now ... we play all hymns and choruses by ear ... i have wondered why i continually add color in the left and and seldom in the right. This video explained it all to me. The counter melody in this piece is wonderful ... glorious. You never get over sounds you heard as a kid. So glad my early music was melodious and beautiful instead of harsh and angry. I'm in my 53rd year as a dentist. I can come home after a hard day very stressed out and very very tired. Can barely drag to church on Wednesday nights where i play a few "sing-along" requests before we pray ... then an hour later practice the songs for Sunday for about another hour. And amazingly feel rested and rejuvenated afterwards. Keeps me out of the bar-rooms and honkytonks! Thank God for beautiful music. This Royal Marine Band gets both thumbs up.
The band of the Royal Marines ………….always bloody marvellous. It’s high time that the band of the Royal Family, starting with the Queen , lives up to them and all that which they represent through the music.
My Late mother absolutely adored the band of the Royal Marines and when she was dying and had when we came into her hospital ward she told us that she’d seen the Royal Marines band march up and down playing just for her and it made her happy
@@sjefhendrickx2257 Hmmm, watch this: ruclips.net/video/q6MJSfjXUgQ/видео.html It's like day and night. This british marching band or whatever just can't compete. And LOL at the way that tuba player is holding his instrument xD
Wonderful. I can remember playing the beautiful eupho counter melody to this March as our school cadet band (Melbourne High School) marched up Swanson St on Anzac Day in the mid 1970s. As we marched, one of the old WW2 diggers danced through our marching ranks while playing the spoons. My music teacher just said play it all triple forte as I was the only eupho. God I was exhausted after we had played it 3 times before we got to the Shrine. Amazing memories. All those old diggers are long gone now, but I’m still playing Eupho and loving those Kenneth Alford marches!
I have seen the movie several times and still IMO one of the best movies ever done. Last time I watched it was 3 weeks ago, and this march is my favorite of all. I was in Thailand in 2013 and visit Kanchanaburi to see the original bridge, and also visit the museum and cemetary. Very emotional even if it was long time ago
Nothing more brings about a great sense of pride and nostalgia then a March so well played by a band that uphold the tradition so well, enabling history to continue to be recognized and remembered!
The military bearing being maintained by every Marine in this band while performing is simply impeccable! This just shows you the level of perfection and excellence of one of the world's greatest military branches 🇬🇧
An observation that I had also. I find that most nations that have a present or past relationship to the crown tend to have a strict military bearing. Being an veteran from the Canadian army, I always found that we had more snap to our step, and more precision than that of our southern neighbours.
Absolutely! No other military in the world marches with such perfection and "oneness". Army, Navy & Air Force. They're absolute perfection. A joy to watch and listen to.
@@brianjohnston9822 The British Empire once colonized nearly 25% of the world. Today they leave their language and culture as a legacy on every continent. That's impressive!
Oh lord, those baritone and bases, how sweet it is! Marching so far to drumbeat, many watchers not getting to hear the music. Maybe they'll make the block again.65 yrs. past l marched and played that composition with a Trumpet to my lips and fingers pushing the valves and wondering as l did so, if the watchers along the street were possibly having as much fun as l. Still love that song, and especially an elegant group like this performing it! Google up the origin of that song. Yery interesting story on how it was created! Great video! Thanks, keep up the good works!🌈
My Grandfather served in Europe during WW2 he took part in the Landings just after D-Day and taught me this when I was a small boy in the mid 70's and of course I heard it played during the last Remembrance Day he was well enough to travel to Britain for in 1988 as we watched the Veterans March down Whitehall, but I don't think my Mom forgave him for teaching me to Sing "Hitler has only got one ball the other is in the Albert Hall" and so on 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
I love this a lot . My grandmother had a pianola ( player Piano) , which as a child I jumped on as soon as I arrived at her place . One of her rolls was this “ Colonel Bogey “ . I played it to death . This is hard work . A lot going on for the band guys .
I remember when my sister was a member of the Frankston Mariners marching girls team way back in the very late 1950's & early 1960's, out in Melbourne, Australia, Colonel Bogey was always played as one of the tunes to display march too.
I first watched ....River Kwai in an old cinema hall in Bangalore, India, when I was about 15 - 16, and found it deeply inspirational. Back then in the 70s in Bangalore there were perhaps only three cinema halls which dedicated them to screen English language movies. Though we saw quite a few iconic movies they would be anywhere between 5 to 10 years after their release in the west. Since then I have watched it twice more on the TV. Each time I am so moved by every shot of the movie. Now as a 64 year old grandmother I hope that my young grandsons would one day watch the River Kwai and learn what words like true character, honour, fairness, patriotism etc can mean... This clip brought back lovely memories. Thank you.
I still remember this movie and the River Kwai March. I couldn't imagine that they would blow up the bridge and the train falling into the river. It wasn't fake. A great movie!
Great movie. Way more than just a "War movie". The study of the dynamic of human interaction makes this film a 5 star for me! A multitude of human emotions are woven into fabric of the story throughout the film.

To really appreciate a Military band you have to be there, the music reverberates through your entire body.... As ex Navy, Heart of Oak does it for me every time, oh and Dambusters 🥲
Pay attention to your pulse when you hear this. It beats stronger, and eventually, IN TIME to it. As for your endorphins, the reading is off the charts. ♥️😉😁
The only part of the forces that still strikes you with the same inspiration as it must have the ordinary person of 150 years ago. God bless the Royal Marines.

We all deserve hell and then the Lake of Fire that burns with sulphur and fire on Judgement day.
This was a movie nail biting till the end. It's nostalgic when I viewed this mammoth movie in IMA. Glory and proud British forces are amply reflected in this classic display of marines band throught out the main avenues. Indeed amazing display and smart band.
Oh my gosh!!!! The lyric you scrolled!!! That is truly TRULY. CLASSIC!!! I always thought it was the song about a pot-scrubbing abrasive your younger Americans called “comet.” Scusi whilst I go clean up a mess in the loo!!!
Very good Band. They marched in perfect formation just like the United States Marine Corps. I always love to hear a professional band because they spend a lot of time practicing to be perfect.
I am an American citizen who does admire this British Military band playing their song. This song represented the British prisoners of war being honored for their courage in facing the brutal treatment of the Japanese Imperial Army during World War 2. My heart goes out to those British Prisoners of War who were brave suffering at the hands of the Japanese Imperial Army during World War 2. They fought along with us side by side during the Second World War. That song has a lot of meaning.
@@bobbievasco6915! Was he is the British or the U.S armed forces? I am very proud of him for his service to the United Kingdom and the United States. Thank you for sharing that with me. The U.S. armed forces bands should play that song because the United Kingdom fought alongside with us during that war. Their soldiers were just as brave as our soldiers were when fighting the Japanese during World War Two.
I can't begin to count the number of times I've watched this. And of course it was featured in the movie Bridge on the River Kwai. Great music. Great history
stupid saying because...."for the wages of sin is death, (we all die, therefore we are all sinners) but the free gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord."
They're so amazing. NOBODY does this as well as the Royal Marines!! My father was in the Royal Australian Navy Band that was part of the Queen's coronation celebration, all those years ago. 🇦🇺 My Mum was in the Navy too during the war and just after the war. So proud of them. These Royal Marines look and sound fantastic. I could watch them for hours.

In memory of S/sgt E.O. GREEN , Platoon 138, San Diego, 1968. We whistled this last 3 weeks of boot camp before graduating. He was ONE HELLUVA A MARINE!!! Will NEVER forget him or our 3 other DI'S

My father, an ex Brigadier with 10 battalions under his command raised 2 battalions with brass and pipe bands based on HM Royal Marines Band winning many Best Marching Bands competitions.

You are very welcome
Bloody septic tank! Lol mate , you blokes. Kept Australia’ free in ww 2 we still love yas mate
An amazing marching tune which brings back nostalgic memories of those amazing years. I watched Bridge on the River Kwai 4 times those days.
I saw the movie Bridge on the River Kwai and Sir Alec Guinness would be hard to be equaled. Even when he marched with his troops, the way he held his head, the way he swing his arms. Though the movie is a far cry from the reality of the horrible conditions the prisoners worked under (read the book The Lost Highlander), there's something about the movie that still stays with me after all these years. And I am 71, saw the movie when I was seven and peppered my oldest sister with questions about the Japanese and British troops. Back then it was rare to see a full length movie with mainly British actors.
How about Lawrence of Arabia?
My father fought; he loved this melody and the movie it's associated with (to this VERY day)!💕 I just wish I'd known the words. He would've lost his mind 🤣🤣🤣🤣...then, "shushed" me when mama asked what was so funny. 😘👍🇺🇲
@@YT-jh8co I never cared for Lawrence of Arabia. Just didn't interest me. But Bridge on the River Kwai. Stayed with me all these years.
highly inaccurate film. the Allied Prisoners were treated a great deal worse than the film industry had any intention of showing. read a few books, then sit down and cry
@@dianamarquez4774 ...it takes as much endurance to sit through "Lawrence of Arabia" as it does to actually cross the desert...
...I would like to recommend to you another movie which you might enjoy, much lighter in tone, featuring another well known British actor...
..."The Best of Enemies" (from 1961) is an Italian film starring David Niven and Alberto Sordi, where a British major (David Niven) and an Italian captain (Alberto Sordi) gain mutual respect for each other in 1941 Ethiopia...
...enjoy!...
My Father was Prisoner of War of the Japanese and forced to work on the Death railway
every time i hear this tune it brings tears to my eyes

My great uncle on dads side died as a POW on the Burma death railway. He is buried in a Commonwealth war graves cemetery near the river kwai. His FIVE brothers fought in New Guinea. They took no prisoners.
Sad to say that this year there less then 50 of these brave men left my father was 2/29 Battalion at the fall and was sent with F Force on the Burma May they RIP. your sacrifice will never be forgotten ❤🇦🇺

You can't beat the Royal Marines. Even the musicians are elite! Guards eat your heart out!
There's a video featuring recruits to the Royal Marines band. If accepted they learn how to play a second instrument; a brass player will learn a woodwind instrument and vice versa. I think they're trained to be medics for combat duties. A pretty good career.
only the italian "lagunari" can and not always
@@geoffpoole483 In the musical theatre it is commonplace for a "pad" to require its player to play two or three different instruments. Unsurprisingly, you will find a lot of ex-forces musicians in theatre bands, and very good they are too.

It's beautiful!! I love the Military Marching Bands. The Best!
Watched the movie several times and got my students in Junior High in Ghana to watch in school. Yes the WW2 was not much of an African ideological war despite our engagement and involvement in the many war theaters. I wanted them to learn the many morals that the movie teaches and i'm glad they did. Salute to men who sacrifice for others.
The movie "Bridge on the River Kwai" is highly recommended. I saw it in a drive-in theater in California during its initial release over 60 years ago. The Colonel Bogey March was whistled by the British prisoners as they marched in key scenes. Unforgettable, as was Alec Guiness's performance.
At the drive in I never saw much of the movie
@@mafirearmsafety Setting the scene: I was 5 with my 10-year old brother in the back seat; our parents were 35. Our ride was a 1955 Dodge station wagon. The drive-in was somewhere near Pasadena, CA.

The pride is almost touchable !!
Love this British march classic! Played so beautifully. Euphoniums are the heroes!
It is painful to recollect past memories.Always 😢appreciated, thanks for bringing the sweet memories of the past times, missed ❤but can never forget. Thankd once again.
I am a retired soldier (from the SADF) and I love this march!
How majestic is this.. Love to watch and hear it again and again. God Bless ❤
It has nothing to do with salvation. God could care less. Eternity will not be about any of us or what we have done. It will all be about Jesus Christ who died on a cross to save us from our sins. We all deserve hell and then the lake of fire on Judgement day.
oh wow!!!
i have not enjoyed anything that much in a long time.
I played baritone in High School, and in the Texas Aggie band (where we did Colonel Bogey).
Thank you Jim Ramsay for marching along with the Baritones.
I am church pianist now ... we play all hymns and choruses by ear ...
i have wondered why i continually add color in the left and and seldom in the right.
This video explained it all to me. The counter melody in this piece is wonderful ... glorious.
You never get over sounds you heard as a kid.
So glad my early music was melodious and beautiful instead of harsh and angry.
I'm in my 53rd year as a dentist. I can come home after a hard day very stressed out and very very tired.
Can barely drag to church on Wednesday nights where i play a few "sing-along" requests before we pray ... then an hour later practice the songs for Sunday for about another hour. And amazingly feel rested and rejuvenated afterwards.
Keeps me out of the bar-rooms and honkytonks!
Thank God for beautiful music.
This Royal Marine Band gets both thumbs up.
my daughter is a dentist too! Stressful job! Glad you enjoyed it Robert!
The band of the Royal Marines ………….always bloody marvellous. It’s high time that the band of the Royal Family, starting with the Queen , lives up to them and all that which they represent through the music.
The River Kwai March---
A masterful master piece of music and drums
No, it’s called “Colonel Bogey March”, 1:14 , it was composed in 1914 and has always been a military marching tune
Bloody brilliant pride in every step 👍 pride of British military bands makes you proud to be BRITISH thank you
It is back!!!
This is my favorite performance. You can hear the second melody and it is just amazing!
Been back for a while! CD Baby relented on their copyright claim!
The best arrangement I have heard of this piece. The primary and secondary melody from the brass section simply blend beautifully. Bravo.
My Late mother absolutely adored the band of the Royal Marines and when she was dying and had when we came into her hospital ward she told us that she’d seen the Royal Marines band march up and down playing just for her and it made her happy
The finest military band in the world, bar none. If this doesn't make you feel proud and privileged to be British, nothing will!
The finest?
Show me the facts and I will agree with you as an American!!
@@bw2495 - when you get to that level of skill, the difference between any given band will be hair thin.

It's like day and night. This british marching band or whatever just can't compete. And LOL at the way that tuba player is holding his instrument xD
Wonderful. I can remember playing the beautiful eupho counter melody to this March as our school cadet band (Melbourne High School) marched up Swanson St on Anzac Day in the mid 1970s. As we marched, one of the old WW2 diggers danced through our marching ranks while playing the spoons. My music teacher just said play it all triple forte as I was the only eupho. God I was exhausted after we had played it 3 times before we got to the Shrine. Amazing memories. All those old diggers are long gone now, but I’m still playing Eupho and loving those Kenneth Alford marches!
Keep it up Poms. The history, the discipline, the music lifts the heart. Going to watch/listen to Scotland the Brave now. Brings tears to my eyes.
Glad you enjoyed it

Thank you from an Englishman living in the loveiy Philippines
I have seen the movie several times and still IMO one of the best movies ever done.
Last time I watched it was 3 weeks ago, and this march is my favorite of all.
I was in Thailand in 2013 and visit Kanchanaburi to see the original bridge, and also visit the museum and cemetary. Very emotional even if it was long time ago
Where is it available to watch? I would love to see it again! One of my favorites.
Can watch the movie on Netflix I think
The Bridge on the River Kwai is also available on Amazon Prime

Big thank you to CWGC for keeping their memories and sacrifices alive
Nothing more brings about a great sense of pride and nostalgia then a March so well played by a band that uphold the tradition so well, enabling history to continue to be recognized and remembered!
Oops.... and pride is a sin. duh.
Music from one of the VERY best films ever made!! Love it.
Ha. The movie borrowed the music. The music was written DECADES before they even thought of doing the movie. But, we get it.
When i was a lad i was a drummer in the sea cadet force band,our instructor was a former Royal Marine bandsman,we could't have had a better one.
The military bearing being maintained by every Marine in this band while performing is simply impeccable! This just shows you the level of perfection and excellence of one of the world's greatest military branches 🇬🇧

An observation that I had also. I find that most nations that have a present or past relationship to the crown tend to have a strict military bearing. Being an veteran from the Canadian army, I always found that we had more snap to our step, and more precision than that of our southern neighbours.
Absolutely! No other military in the world marches with such perfection and "oneness". Army, Navy & Air Force. They're absolute perfection. A joy to watch and listen to.
@@brianjohnston9822 The British Empire once colonized nearly 25% of the world. Today they leave their language and culture as a legacy on every continent. That's impressive!
They should be doing something useful like cleaning the streets. Waste of taxpayers money.
Well done !, brings me back to my time with mostly 42 ..in Recce troop 64/72
Ahhhh, I feel safer just watching this. Thank you to all our brave servicemen and women for your service.
I saw Bridge Over River Kwai as a kid and now, at 71, I will occasionally whistle that tune when I am out walking.
Ma gni fique.... j'en suis toute émue... bouleversée et les larmes aux yeux..merci pour ce bon moment..... merci du fond du coeur, merci.
Splendid! the band made me march with them, tho, i am so many miles away. love it.
When we had our Wings Parade, we were honoured with HM Royal Marines Band playing the March of the Royal Air Force. Felt very privileged. 🙂
now its our time to help you...must lern to drive left but i need time...
We are privileged. Thank you 🇬🇧
Been a fan of this March since my childhood right up to the movie Bridge on the River Kwai. I am 86 yrs old and it is still my favorite
I'm a Yank, but stirs my heart anyway. Good show!
Oh lord, those baritone and bases, how sweet it is! Marching so far to drumbeat, many watchers not getting to hear the music. Maybe they'll make the block again.65 yrs. past l marched and played that composition with a Trumpet to my lips and fingers pushing the valves and wondering as l did so, if the watchers along the street were possibly having as much fun as l. Still love that song, and especially an elegant group like this performing it! Google up the origin of that song. Yery interesting story on how it was created! Great video! Thanks, keep up the good works!🌈
That was euphonium they don't use baritone in most marching bands
These folks have obviously done this before. The baritone countermelody really makes this a stellar performance.
My Grandfather served in Europe during WW2 he took part in the Landings just after D-Day and taught me this when I was a small boy in the mid 70's and of course I heard it played during the last Remembrance Day he was well enough to travel to Britain for in 1988 as we watched the Veterans March down Whitehall, but I don't think my Mom forgave him for teaching me to Sing "Hitler has only got one ball the other is in the Albert Hall" and so on 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Brilliant side drum(snare) as well.
I love this a lot .
My grandmother had a pianola ( player Piano) , which as a child I jumped on as soon as I arrived at her place .
One of her rolls was this “ Colonel Bogey “ . I played it to death .
This is hard work . A lot going on for the band guys .
I remember when my sister was a member of the Frankston Mariners marching girls team way back in the very late 1950's & early 1960's,
out in Melbourne, Australia, Colonel Bogey was always played as one of the tunes to display march too.
I first watched ....River Kwai in an old cinema hall in Bangalore, India, when I was about 15 - 16, and found it deeply inspirational. Back then in the 70s in Bangalore there were perhaps only three cinema halls which dedicated them to screen English language movies. Though we saw quite a few iconic movies they would be anywhere between 5 to 10 years after their release in the west.
Since then I have watched it twice more on the TV. Each time I am so moved by every shot of the movie.
Now as a 64 year old grandmother I hope that my young grandsons would one day watch the River Kwai and learn what words like true character, honour, fairness, patriotism etc can mean...
This clip brought back lovely memories. Thank you.
I still remember this movie and the River Kwai March. I couldn't imagine that they would blow up the bridge and the
train falling into the river. It wasn't fake. A great movie!
Great movie. Way more than just a "War movie". The study of the dynamic of human interaction makes this film a 5 star for me! A multitude of human emotions are woven into fabric of the story throughout the film.
Show this to your kids never let them forget what true British patriotic people are all about 🇬🇧🇬🇧

This was a movie nail biting till the end. It's nostalgic when I viewed this mammoth movie in IMA. Glory and proud British forces are amply reflected in this classic display of marines band throught out the main avenues. Indeed amazing display and smart band.
One of the best movie I watch, showing the perseverance of the British during WWII.
Great marches and brilliant music thank you for making it possible. LL
So pleased these highly disciplined men are looking after us. thank you so much. God bless you

Comet, will make your teeth turn green
Comet, it tastes like kerosene
Comet, will make you vomit
So buy some Comet, and vomit today!
Very good Band. They marched in perfect formation just like the United States Marine Corps. I always love to hear a professional band because they spend a lot of time practicing to be perfect.
This is the coolest thing to see live. One of my best memories of England without a doubt…
A musical band or orchestra is so well timed and trained. Always amazes me.
i never missed this movie as a child and it encouraged me to join the RCAF in 1968 . I always admired the heroism of the soldiers.
Beautifully and precisely done!⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Good marching bands are so stirring..love the traditional style marching snare drums.
I am an American citizen who does admire this British Military band playing their song. This song represented the British prisoners of war being honored for their courage in facing the brutal treatment of the Japanese Imperial Army during World War 2. My heart goes out to those British Prisoners of War who were brave suffering at the hands of the Japanese Imperial Army during World War 2. They fought along with us side by side during the Second World War. That song has a lot of meaning.
