First Aid Kit Summer Session #1 – Universal Soldier (Buffy-Sainte Marie)

admin — Mon, 08 Mar 2010 09:05:33 +0000

This is our first session, for more info on the sessions check out http://thisisfirstaidkit.com

This protest song was written in the early sixties by Buffy Sainte-Marie. It’s about individual responsibility for war. We wanted to sing this song because, unfortunately, what Buffy sang about at her time is still is so true today and will probably be so for years to come. We changed the lyrics a bit to make it more relevant to today’s society.

Enjoy.
