Sky pilot - Eric burdon & Animals
He blesses the boys they stand in line,
the smell of gun grease and bayonets they shine
He's there to help them all that he can to make them feel wanted
he's a good holy man
Sky pilot, sky pilot, how high can you fly,
you'll never, never, never reach the sky
He smiles at the young soldiers tells them it's all right
He knows of their fear in the forthcoming fight
Soon there'll be blood and many will die,
mothers and fathers back home they will cry
Sky pilot, sky pilot, how high can you fly,
you'll never, never, never reach the sky
He mumbles a prayer and it ends with a smile,
the order is given they move down the line
But he's still behind and he'll meditate,
but it won't stop the bleeding or ease the hate
And the young men move out into the battle zone,
he feels good with God you're never alone
He feels so tired and he lays on his bed,
hopes the men will find courage in the words that he said
Sky pilot, sky pilot, how high can you fly,
you'll never, never, never reach the sky
You're soldiers of God you must understand,
the fate of your country is in your young hands
May God give you strength, do your job real well,
if it all was worth it, only time it will tell
In the morning they return with tears in their eyes
The stench of death drifts up to the skies,
a young soldier so ill looks at the sky pilot
Remembers the words "Tho shalt not kill"
Sky pilot, sky pilot, how high can you fly,
you'll never, never, never reach the sky

정말 오랜만에 듣는... 추억의 노래 "Sky Pilot"입니다.
노래 중간 연주부분에 여러 가지 음향을 섞어 넣었고 베토벤의 교향곡도 등장합니다.
이 노래는 60년대 말 베트남전쟁이 한창일 때 유행했던 곡으로
전쟁의 처참함을 경험한 사람들과 자유 분망하게 사는 히피족들에게 크게 유행했던 반전 음악입니다.
곡은 신나는 듯 하지만 가사 내용은 X입니다.
반전음악이라고 해서 우리가 경계해야 할 필요는 없지요.....
음악에 있어서는 창의성이나 메세지,예술성 등이 중요하다고 봅니다....
선호여부는 각자의 취향에 맡겨야....
