I think Paintbox, but I'm not sure
a question in 3 parts:
1 which is the song played at the beginning of the wall live (is there anybody out there?)before in the flesh ?
2 whose is that song?
3why is it there?
i dont know the name but the singer is Vera Lynn "i think i spelled the last name right" and i dont know exactly why its there but i have to take a stab at it, because of the song "Vera" and i think waters lost his dad in WWII and she sang to the troops, thats my stab so im probably wrong but meh oh well
TheDark&CrazyPiperDiamond, correct, Paintbox Cool
the song is 'we'll meet again' of vera lynn.
you can hear 'we'll meet again, don't know where, don't know when, but i know we'll meet again some sunny day'.
this song was sung by lot of soldiers during the second WW, because they hoped to return home alive.
my question:
Why do some kids sing "Ring a Ring a Roses" during Take It Back (I know the song its meaning, i just wondered why that's in there"
Take it back speaks about nature: if man abuses of it, nature can have its revenge.
ring-a-ring-a-roses is said to be referred to an europe plague in 1600...nature had had its revenge.....!!

yeah, but i don't really buy that. it's tenous. so you think the Black Death was nature's revenge?
I don't think that...maybe david thinks so, maybe not...
Light my mind!!!
i have a trivia question, in what other PF project is the beach on the cover of MLOR used
