Day 27: A song about war

I have a thing for concept albums. It's one thing to put together a great album where every song shares a genre, but to create a coherent theme for every song takes some serious dedication.

Maiden's Somewhere In Time is some of their best work, only trumped (in my opinion) by Dance of Death.

A song about one of humankind's most famous warlords;
Iron Maiden - Alexander the Great

Those are some controversial opinions, but I'll not stir that pot because I haven't listened to Somewhere in Time in it's entirety, as recorded. I do have Dance of Death and agree that it was well put together.
 
Day 27: A song about war/military/peace

Universal Soldier - Buffy Sainte-Marie



Luv this so much! (My third favourite musician of all time.)
A brilliant song choice! This only becomes more and more true with the passage of time.
Very sad from a social standpoint... but invigorating from an artistic point of view.
Thank you for sharing this one with us!
