    This song is so emotional, my son has just come back from his 2nd tour of duty in afghanistan I'm so glad he's home safe but that doesn't stop me from thinking about those still out there, the ones that will be going there all their families and especially the ones who haven't come home and their families, I'll carry on praying for you all

    regardless of colour,nationality, sexuality or class this song is beautiful regardless of the connection behind the song. Times of death, grief and loss are times for people to but there differences behind them. Realise life is too short so stop bickering and live it.

    I would like to retract my previous comment. Upon investigation I realise that any song written by a Downes should in fact be applauded, given the difficulties they face.

  • @swimsuitissue123
    @swimsuitissue123 14 лет назад

    @brawlass Not really. I have family and friends who are in the army too. I still think this song is tasteless, it feeds on emotions without giving a solution. Others are not so lucky no and I share this sorrow for their family and friends. However I also feel pain for all the innocent civilians killed all across the world by British and American troops. People tend to be more ignorant of this. And I just felt this song makes the whole thing a joke. I am allowed to state my opinoin.

    @swimsuitissue123 At no point did I say you were not entitled to your opinion. However, I am also entitled to mine. Just try to accept the song for what it is. No solution - obviously. THAT is not the reason for it. I have to wonder about your 'innocent civilians' comment - and in turn your actual real thoughts for OUR troops. However, I do not wish to hear your thoughts on this as your comment said enough. Read the posts above. I am not the only one questioning your post.

    @swimsuitissue123 you are very ignorant to the family and extended family of our proud troops. The target audience as you put it is no such thing. My brother fought in Iraq recently, I was very lucky to get him home in one piece. Others are not so lucky. However, we all feel the pain of those brave men and women who do not return alive. I will support these guys in their music. They raise money through their music which may I add is very close to their hearts as serving soldiers. SHAME ON YOU
