Sting – Children's Crusade Lyrics 11 years ago
Hi all-
If any of you still get the trackbacks for comments on Sting's Children's Crusade, I'd love to hear more ideas. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on meaning. To sum it up, we know:
1) talking about innocence of youth - going to war young, drugs - how the phrase "young lives betrayed" applies in many situations
2) "children would never be slaves" - advocacy for youth against war, drugs, and other wars we fight
- what more do we know about poppies, the war, and 1984/Soho as it relates to this song?
