War!! (not the cricketer)

[Spiff]

Tomorrow (US time) is a moment of truth, if George W. Bush is to be believed, which probably means that the war will begin.

So, in honour of this momentous event, let's make a list of the best anti-war songs (or pro-war songs if you're that way inclined)!!

I'll start with a couple of obvious ones:

Iron Maiden - 2 Minutes to Midnight
Iron Maiden - Afraid To Shoot Strangers

Now it's YOUR turn!

Tomorrow is when the UN will veto his latest resolution, then he will issue a "US citizens get the f**k out of Iraq" thing and then 36 hours later its on, thats what they reckon on the news...!

War Ensemble - Slayer
Bitter Peace - Slayer

 

[Spiff]

Oh.

Mandatory Suicide is an anti-war Slayer song, innit? Haven't actually listened to the lyrics.

 

[spawn]

No, I just saw the news! Its gone from that to all out war apparently

 

[spawn]

I dont know if any of them are pro or anti war really, just about war...

Point - Slayer

 

[Blitzkrieg]

...what is it good for..? Absolutely nothin...

 

[spawn]

Say it again...

 

[Southy]

War....Uh, what is it good for....



What about the whole Final Cut album by Pink Floyd..its more sorta post war though i guess :/

Disposable Heros- Metallica

 

[Goreripper]

'Disposable Heroes' - Metallica
'Civil War' - Guns N Roses
'War Pigs' - Black Sabbath

 

[Southy]

War Pigs

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Yes, 'Disposable Heroes' is a good one, excellent song.

 

[phlogiston]

Errrm..."For Those About to Rock" has canons in it. They're pretty warish.

 

[phlogiston]

I can't believe spawn's posted in this thread four times so far, and it's still up to me to mention '1776' and 'Ghost of Freedom' by IE.

 

[Blitzkrieg]

Ahh, 'Ghost Of Freedom', another goodie.

I want to go listen to G'N'R now, but I don't have the UYI albums.

 

[phlogiston]

Imagine - Lennon
Army Dreamer - Kate Bush

And that old classic:
"1 2 3 4 We don't want your stupid war"

 

[Winmar]

Um....errr......Nothin' But A Good Time by Poison.

 

[phlogiston]

I don't think you're taking this seriously, Winmar.

 

[_(^DRACULA^)_]

War Ensemble - Slayer
Killing fields - Slayer
mandatory Suicide - Slyer
The War Has Begun - Dark Order

 

[dreamwatch]

Volunteers - Jefferson Airplane
US Forces - Midnight Oil
Fortunate Son - Creedence Clearwater Revival
I Don't Want To Be A Soldier - John Lennon


and Billy Bragg's entire back catalogue.

 

[weetbix]

It's not exactly anti-war .... but I think George Bush has been lsitening to Savatage's "Of Rage And War" song a bit too much.

"You better listen to me you son of a bitch
Better disarm those missles sleeping in the ditch
You have no goddamn right to do the things you do
The world would be a better place if we were rid of you!"

Now, isn't that basically what Uncle George is saying to Uncle Saddam?
