Land Of Confusion Lyrics
I think it's about the general abuse of political power, applying to any such situation throughout the ages
It isn't about any particular event or war. It is a relevant at ANY point in time. The video to this song was excellently made. The guitar riff was also taken from The Who, which is subtly hinted with a last minute change made to the original lyrics. "MY GENERATION will set it right"
Oh hells yeah! Particularly when he sings "my generation will put it right........we're not just making promises, that we know WE'LL NEVER KEEP". That sounds an awful lot like the Baby Boomers who promised to change the world for the better but never kept those promises and never really intended to after all.

It's just about how the major world powers seem intent on damaging our world. Think the spitting image / sartirical video to this song says it all.
In this song, Phil Collins addresses the problems of abusive political authority.
This song talks about the political power of the government and how they make it"the land of confusion". Song is a warning to those in power
No, not really the government. The government is just the result of the societ.

Best video ever
It's about how Ronald Reagan and the Russians were going to blow up the planet in the 1980s. Pretty scary.
This is one of those songs that was prescient and applies now even more so than when it was made, while also tying into most of human history. It's chef's finger kiss.
Quozzerx: I don't see how that's possible since the album containing this song was released in 1986 while the Gulf War was 1991.
I think quozzerx meant to say Cold War. I think it's an anti-Reagan song. The video for this song is the wierdest I've ever seen, but it's fun to watch. Download it sometime if you haven't seen it. They make fun of Ronald Reagan alot in the video too.
It discuss the greed and uncertainty of the Cold War-era 1980s, but evoke a sense of hope for the future. And indeed its such a cool song
