Tears welled in my eyes at the part of the song that said Frank was going home in June. My God... This song perfectly protrays the horrors of war. The Herd are awesome, they've perfected this song as a cover and have shown they're a hip-hop band that don't just sing about the kind of stuff your average hip-hop band might sing about (eg. sex, drugs, alcohol, etc). I think this song will speak out to a younger audience now that it's been reconstructed as a hip-hop song by a band many young people love. This song has a powerful and important message.
