Brothers in Arms on the Mike Church show, March 25

[mirrorimageegamirorrim]

This is a song you rarely hear on the radio but this morning, on the Mike Church show on channel 125 Sirius-XM, Mike played almost the entire song as part of a discussion he was having.  He said the song is anti-war.  I never thought about it that way but maybe it is.  As the song played I could only see the scene from "Out Where the Buses Don't Run", of course.  Did anybody else hear this today?

Dire Straits â€“ Brothers In Arms Lyrics

These mist covered mountains
Are a home now for me
But my home is the lowlands
And always will be
Someday you'll return to
Your valleys and your farms
And you'll no longer burn to be
Brothers in arms

Through these fields of destruction
Baptisms of fire
I've witnessed your suffering
As the battle raged higher
And though they did hurt me so bad
In the fear and alarm
You did not desert me
My brothers in arms

There's so many different worlds
So many different suns
And we have just one world
But we live in different ones

Now the sun's gone to hell and
The moon's riding high
Let me bid you farewell
Every man has to die
But it's written in the starlight
And every line in your palm
We are fools to make war
On our brothers in arms

[Tom]

The song is about the civil war in middle America in the 80s, most likely El Salvador.

A perfect fit for the scene!
