Me and the wife were living in a damp one-room in Islington, North London the year this song came out. We played it endlessly. And we called our baby - 'Oliver'. He hasn't complained!

About young poor kids recruited into the British Army to perform its questionable peace-keeping role, especially in Northern Ireland in the late 70s/early 80s.Fast forward to the present day, with poor American kids performing the dirty work in Iraq. Plus ca change...

good music does exist today you just got to dig a little
listen to wilco, beck, fleet foxes, joel plasket, billy brag, the last shadow puppets, the arctic monkeys, the black keys and alot of other bands are doing great things
I am a huge elvis costello fan saw him recently he is amazing just saying there is still good music today

I think it's quite a relief for forty-year-olds to hear that teenagers as young as myself (fourteen) are still listening to good music these days. Good music doesn't actually exist these days but it did a few decades ago. Long live the past! (My dad went to school with Elvis Costello, by the way. Somewhere in Liverpool, apparently.)
