Music - War

Today in class the boys were discussing how a lot of songs relate to the Vietnam War or other wars. We have been analysing "I was only 19" in class as part of our SOSE Unit. Today we looked at a few other songs that I have listed below. Many boys recognised the songs but had no idea what the lyrics were about. This may be a great decision to have with your child tonight, or even let them listen to some songs you know of.

Have a great week everyone!



Fortunate Son - Creedence Clearwater Revival

Imagine - John Lennon (we also discussed Merry Xmas, War is over)

For what it's worth - Buffalo Springstein

War, what is it good for? - Edwin Starr

Born in the USA - Bruce Springstein

Eve of destruction - Barry McGuire

Orange crush - R.E.M

Blowing in the wind - Bob Dylan
