Donald Fagen

Also Donald Fagen's New Frontier (1983) is een anti-war song. And not on this list. --159.100.86.146 (talk) 18:29, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Why not "Radio Africa"?

Why is "Radio Africa" (1985) of Latin Quarter not on this list? Cause it should be! --159.100.86.146 (talk) 14:35, 9 April 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Additional anti-war/Nuclear annihilation songs.

After the War - Gary Moore https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/After_the_War_(Gary_Moore_album) (the lyrics are basically asking the soldiers/politicians what they will do post-war) Here Comes the War - New Model Army https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/The_Love_of_Hopeless_Causes The Queen and the Soldier - Suzanne Vega https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/Suzanne_Vega_(album) (the whole song is about the soldier questioning the queen about what he's fighting for) We Kill the World (Don't Kill the World) - Boney. M is a nuclear war annihilation song. (e.g. "I see mushrooms, atomic mushrooms, I see rockets, missiles in the sky"). https://wiki.riteme.site/wiki/We_Kill_the_World/Boonoonoonoos 86.49.230.218 (talk) 19:43, 3 January 2024 (UTC)[reply]

BAP

Hi everyBody. Thanks for this great and Exemplare collection ! I don't want to criticise. And Ihm not even sure about the original lyrics, but - I always thought that-as the title indicts - the song is meant as a warning against Neo- Fascists ... ("Kristallnacht“ having been the euphemism for November 1938's pogroms in Nazi Germany)? 176.2.71.89 (talk) 19:44, 11 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Well-known?

Should we be listing well-known war songs, or just songs that reference war? I've noticed some of these songs are not popular. Possiblegermany (talk) 19:52, 23 August 2024 (UTC)[reply]

Formatting

Is there a reason we're using quotation marks to put all the songs in? Seems kind of unnecessary. Watch Atlas791 (talk) 10:05, 7 December 2024 (UTC)[reply]
