Forgotten Years - Lyrics
Few of the sins of the father
Are visited upon the son
Hearts have been hard
Hands have been clenched in a fist too long
Our sons need never be soldiers
Our daughters will never need guns
These are the years between
These are the years that were hard fought and won
Now, contracts torn at the edges
Old signatures stained with tears
Seasons of war and peace
These should not be forgotten years
Still it aches like tetanus
It reeks of politics
How many dreams remain?
This is a feeling too strong to contain
The hardest years, the darkest years
The roarin' years, the fallen years
These should not be forgotten years
The hardest years, the wildest years
The desperate and divided years
We will remember
(These should not be forgotten years)
Our shoreline was never invaded
Our country was never in flames
This is the calm we breathe
This is a feeling too strong to contain
Still it aches like tetanus
It reeks of politics
Signatures stained with tears
Who can remember?
We've got to remember
The hardest years, the darkest years
The roarin' years, the fallen years
These should not be forgotten years
The hardest years, the wildest years
The desperate and divided years
We will remember
(These should not be forgotten years)

Great music by hyper talented musicians and song writers, but if we listened to them the world would come to a stop and everything we know would not exist. That is what is wrong with liberal and woke ideology. They want to take away what the world runs on. Money, fossil fuels, free enterprise, etc. Sometimes people, wars are necessary to preserve peace and freedom. So no, Midnight Oil's political views were naive and not realistic in the world.= of the 80's and today. But I love Midnight Oil.

My American father served in WWII and came back with irreparable scars of which he rarely spoke and about which I knew better than to ask. I'm not sure I know what Midnight Oil meant to say with this video, but two things I know: first, thank God for those who gave their lives, their futures, their sanities (including the brave ANZAC soldiers of WWI and many others) for the freedoms we in the West take for granted. Second, God forgive us for irresponsible wars of choice such as Iraq.
@jamesgreaves3023
@jamesgreaves3023 Год назад
Well said. I am not exactly sure what Midnight Oil means either. Probably that we should not forget the terrible wars of the first half of the twentieth century. You are right that the West should never have invaded Iraq. It is a terrible tragedy. There was no justification. There were no WMD. It was all lies. USA and UK used Iraq against Iran and the Kurds in the 70's and 80's before they turned on Iraq. Saddam Hussein was considered a bulwark against Iran and a man who held Iraq together. Despotic regimes like Russia and China use the war in Iraq as leverage to justify the invasion of Ukraine and China's likely invasion of Taiwan and point out the hypocrisy of the West. Amazing that until Iraq's invasion of Kuwait in 1990 Iraq was considered a 'friend' or bulwark by the USA against its enemies. This parallels the West's use of Hitler. The West saw Hitler as a bulwark against Communism. The evidence is Hitler was on the front page of TIME magazine in the 1930's and called Man of the Year! How quickly it all can change.

Fantastic song by the oils,so powerful always makes me feel most emotional ,esp now I can fully comprehend the enormous loss of life, having visited Northern France and Belgium, the number of graves marked " unknown soldier, known only to God" and ages of the fallen really hits you. Most of the fallen are in their TEENS , some as young as 15 and 16. I think this song was inspired by drummer Rob Hirst, whose Grandfather served in WW1.

Ten years ago I was planning my first trip to Australia, my bucket list being getting a ride on a 747 to Australia and getting into a cage with a great white shark (both crossed off), when it occurred to me that it would be great to sit down and have a coffee with Peter Garrett. My favorite band is Rush, so I likes good lyrics, and even though I disagree with Peter's left wing politics, I love the passion he brings to his lyrics and his vocals. He was an MP at the time so I sent and email to his office with my proposal and then went to bed. Much to my surprise when I got up there was a reply from his assistant waiting in my inbox. He said that Peter was not going to be available on the dates I had mentioned but thanked me for writing. I replied, "at least you didn't say he would be washing his hair," which elicited a thunderous laugh in reply... 🤣🤣🤣

Natasa- yes, alot of what you speak is very true, it's alot more complicated today...in WW2 -simple: there's the evil (Nazism, Empireal Japan) go destroy it. Hell, even the cold war conflicts of SE Asia and Korea seem simple to the mess we have now. And I totally agree: war in any form is a dirty, ugly business that has destroyed entire generations of peoples, the waste of what couldv'e been for so many young lives. It should be waged only in the very last resort, where the purpose is clear, it's cause a just one. However, when my nation called, I answered, and served mmy country with loyalty, and i'm proud of that despite questionable justification for fkighting.

Rightly so. BUT. In this example PETER GARRETT, the lead singer, the BASTARD, did the following. He sang about conscience, in all it's guises. Then, he joined a Socialist/Communist Political party here in Australia, called the Australian Labor Party. He was recruited by them so as to attract the ýoung' vote. Whatever!, that's history. My point?. The Oils were approached, only Peter Garrett put his hand up for selection. Once a Dog........

twinstu50 Sounds like you have some kind of issue with leftism that has nothing to do with Peter Garrett's conscience. Listen to a song like Blue Sky Mine. Who's always stood up for people like that? The workers. Was it conservatives? Was it people who went on and on about the wonders of capitalism? No. It's been socialists every damn time. Of course, the Australian Labor Party isn't actually very socialist anyway, at least from what this American has heard of them.

Jerimiah10 Weirdly, it seems like the only people who write good songs - like, ever, really - are people on the left. Almost like lefties are the only people who have souls. Haha not really, but damned if it doesn't feel like that sometimes. The bottom line isn't the only thing that's important. If a company can't afford to pay their workers a decent wage, maybe they need a better business model. Shit, maybe the world needs a better business model.

Midnight Oil should have been much bigger than they were. It says something about humanity: when someone says something of meaning or in this case sings something of meaning , no one wants to listen nor pay attention. It is truly a shame.

Today is 11-11-2018. The 100th Anniversary of the end of WWI. I found out recently that military veterans don't mind the "Thank you for your service" salutation, but many prefer a handshake and the words "Always Remember" - because it means we're all in it together.

Am an American, every year on the 31 October people say happy Halloween and I say, it was an important day in history on the 31 October 1917 when the Australian Lighthorse took the Turkish strong hold of Beersheba which was the turning point in that campaign. I will never forget what they did and the sacrifices they did.

Goosebumps. I actually studied and learned about Australian history after hearing the lyrics in this song many years ago. Clearly one of the most underrated rock bands of the 80s and 90s.....very, very few singers have ever put that much passion into their work. And who else could win Aussie Song of the Year nearly 40 years after their debut... for Gadigal Land in 2020?
