War is a sensitive subject but war songs evoke feelings of inspiration, pride, fear, remembrance, confusion and hope. The headline echoes Edwin Starr’s 1970 anti-Vietnam hit War and most people’s feelings towards conflict. Culture Club released The War Song in 1984, although not their greatest song it stated, “War is stupid and people are stupid”. Maybe childish but a true statement?
