(Lyrics):
[Verse 1]
Our little army boy
Is coming home from B.F.P.O
We've a bunch of purple flowers
To decorate a mammy's hero
Mourning in the aerodrome
The weather warmer, he is colder
Four men in uniform
To carry home my little soldier
[Chorus]
(What could he do? Should have been a rock star)
But he didn't have the money for a guitar
(What could he do? Should have been a politician)
But he never had a proper education
(What could he do? Should have been a father)
But he never even made it to his twenties
What a waste, army dreamers
Oh, what a waste of army dreamers
[Verse 2]
Tears over a tin box
Oh, Jesus Christ, he wasn't to know
Like a chicken with a fox
He couldn't win the war with ego
Give the kid the pick of pips
And give him all your stripes and ribbons
Now he's sitting in his hole
He might as well have buttons and bows
[Chorus]
(What could he do? Should have been a rock star)
But he didn't have the money for a guitar
(What could he do? Should have been a politician)
But he never had a proper education
(What could he do? Should have been a father)
But he never even made it to his twenties
What a waste, army dreamers
Oh, what a waste of army dreamers
Oh, what a waste of all them army dreamers
Army dreamers, army dreamers

What could he do? Should have been a rock star
But he didn't have the money for a guitar
What could he do? Should have been a politician
But he never had a proper education
What could he do? Should have been a father
But he never even made it to his twenties
What a waste army dreamers
Oh what a waste of army dreamers

“But he never even made it to his twenties.” Hits hard every time.
Yea cuz in the vid I graped you
rt
I know what that feels like…
Toughen up soldier, he look, you forgot this 👑
@@idzbbyboy9410 There's only one thing, and that's the undertaker.
For those of us who do not understand why the kid joined the army, he originally joined for the money. The song is calling out the preditory nature of war/armies on the lower class into thinking its their only way to achieve. something.
Then I think he died, which I ended up sobbing a lil.
@@Ollie-Sterling yeah, it just hammers home the idea that the lower class is nothing but battle fodder for the rich/influential
@@melaniemoses5750 Yeah.
Not exclusively. While I agree that there's definitely class analysis in the song, it's far from the central message. It's mostly anti war
I thought he was forced into it?
This song reminds me of all the children and teens who faked their age just to get into ww1 cause they had either nothing left or to get at least some money for their families and friends.
oh poor darlings..
a sad world we live in when people realize things like this happens or did happen
Even worse. Many kids went to the barracks stating they are 15-17 years old to which many commanders said things like "Happy birthday. On paper you are from now on 18." God bless their little souls.
There was also the fact that war was seen as something amazing to take part in
"Fight for your country"
"Honor your family"
Children were always encouraged to join the army..
There is a poem "Dulce et decorum est"
That talks about it
They were never warned of the horrors of war..only encouraged to lay their lives down..Glorification of war..
The great war was a concept of wonder. Reports did it no justice, but there were actually too many people volunteering (for Britain at least, and in the beginning). It became a spectacle, with soldiers talking of the excitement of war and encouraging others to join in. But then it turned, war advanced, and soldiers were taken down. WW2 was when the true turn happened, ptsd wasn't as prevalent in the first. But we quickly had a name for it during the second. The second was no spectacle, it was brutal, one that had no surplus of volunteers, and one that many injured themselves to avoid.
@@akiokami9367 i will be honest i am 20 m now and i also thought war were some cool shit. but reality stuck me hard . ww1 and ww2 both were brutal . when you see people you shared a bond with just die in front of you. not able to give a proper good bye.
" Give him all your stripes and ribbons Now he's sitting in his hole He might as well have buttons and bows " gets me cause all I can think about is a a mom staring at her son in his casket with a bunch of honor bandages and stuff and flashing to them as a little child playing with the buttons and ribbons smiling up at them as they show off the biggest button they found.
why would you say that bro no im crying
Dear god you're gonna make us all cry..😭😭😭
I thought it was the equivalence of "these ribbons and badges are nothing anymore just a bow and a button"
Dammit stop I'm crying already
youre also a bad fan, now come back here an think of teruko in the most recent chapters (115.)
this is everything. The way she actually sounds like a mourning, disturbed, resentful mother, losing her potential filled beloved son to a stupid war. Love Kate Bush for bringing this issue to attention.
It was years ago and it was banned off british radio which is even worse
She really does
@@francesca.000Why😭
I would get emotional too if I sang this song
War is just bad
A minute of silence for all the kids we've ever lost to war, friends, family, dreames.
This song reminds me of my brother. He died in the Ukrainian war nine months ago. He was only 18 years old😢
im so sorry 4 u
War is the great dragon, it will devour everything you have
I’m so sorry for your loss ❤️🩹
I’m sooo sorry for your loss, we will pray for your family❤
Rip❤
This song is SO devastating. I actually feel troubled😭😭
IKRRR (REIGEN ARATAKA SPOTTED 😍)
1:29 I love how you can hear the soldiers yelling in the background. It really paints a picture in your mind.
this song gives me chills, its so sad that thse are actually happening rn
It has been this way since the beginning, we aren't the first, and we won't be the last
Maybe FUN/SAD FACT:
After they chorus said "What could he do?" It sounds someone saying "Mom!" In the back😕
So real bro
That’s so sad omg
bro that made me cry 😭
And right after that someone who I believe is prob the sergeant screaming "Aim!"
@@StarsAbove01 I swear I heard "Fire!" somewhere in there
my brother is a veteran.....his friends died in war but he had to go home because of an injury
fuck war and what it does to families
I couldn’t agree more. A deep bow to your brother for experiencing something as horrific as war
My favorite neighbour died on training last week, he was in special operations unit and whenever i hear this song it reminds me of him. He was in his 40s and had wife and 3 daughters, and he was the best man i ever knew, fly high Crni🕊.
Or that's horrible! I feel terrible for him and his family, I hope they are doing well :(♥️
Fly high my man. Never knew who you were, but it sounds like you were one helluva guy. 🕊️
@@AbnormallyOnline he was. And i will always remember speech of his best friend who was talking about all the things Crni was doing for him such as giving him his jacket on the freezing days on their special missions even though he was also cold, and also replacing his best friend on the field when he wasnt able to go few times, or also sharing his food supplies with others…
@@vukad4620
Sounds like he was an angel even on earth.
@@AbnormallyOnline he was guardian of our country thats for sure.
Sending this to my brother because he wants to be in the army
Nahh😭😭
Rip in advance
Womp womp he will fight bravely and be highly decorated, send my salutes from someone in a boot camp rn to him.
@@SenhorMag shut up
@@04xri Cope harder and who spoke to u?
The first second I understood the meaning, I started crying. Kate's voice was really showing the emotion of losing a child soldier.
Actually it made me angry knowing this has been a stupid trend just because of the voice. The trend isn't even talking about the meaning of the song. I wish these songs could be taken more seriously. They really tell something.
This song reminds me of the friends my grandfather used to tell me about, the ones he lost overseas.
This song remind me of a french poem called " le dormeur du val" by Arthur Rimbaud
trying my hardest to not say bsd reference
@@re.__. good to know I’m not alone
I love that guy
@@nandixc3551 the struggle is real
@@re.__. true
“but he never ever made it to his twenties”
This line hits hard…
Idk why it took me so long to realize she's singing about a guy who died in army and that's why it's called army dreamers.
How did it take you so long, it's so obvious 😭
@@Rana-df3zv I never checked the lyrics.
Omg same, I didn't check the lyrics too
It's her son
I just realized that she's singing about a kid that join world war that died
"what could he do? Should've been a rockstar" "he didn't had the money for the guitar" "What could he do? Should've been a politician" "but he never had a proper education" "What he could do? Should've been a father" "But he never even made it to his twenties" I relate to this so much, it hurts.
Toughen up solder, here, you forgot this 👑
‘My son lost his face
Not by losing a race
Not by telling a lie
Why did he fight?’
Sinistrous trenches will never lead the right way
Sun had choked with the beast’s fumes before it rose
Metal hail is hungry for flesh, ready to suppress the beating
Which in my ears is louder than commander’s orders
Like commandments rehashed, heads will doze
Bodies will keep the mantra of motion, competing
With their creator, who temporarily ignores dismay
‘My son lost his face
Not by losing a race
Not by telling a lie
Why did he fight?’
To have spat acid lungs for me seems a stroke of luck
I just looked out once to see my lucky star soaring
Only to see it plunge, as if it was telling me to duck
In vain - cheekbones opened in warm wet welcoming
Steel kissed my eyes promising a mask worthy the opera
It’s better to lose one’s face than give up honour, is it?
Since when is slaughter honourable and proper?
‘My son lost his face
Not by losing a race
Not by telling a lie
Why did he fight?’
Is this a song?
?? is this a song
@@joanajisha4291my poem. Hopefully it wil lbe a song
this poem is beautiful, what really hit was “since when is slaughter honourable and proper?”
@@ykitsmeethank you. I'll do my best to make it into a song, the topic is still on, unfortunately...
Let us stand in silent respect for all those Army Dreamers,
Legends that never got a chance to shine
This hits really different when you’re in the Navy, and you see that we are slowly inching closer to war, and that your little brother is 17, and will have to register for selective service next year on his birthday as soon as he’s 18. And that if there was a draft, he’d be one of the first groups to go
Fuck war.
This song is so impactful, especially it portrays so much about soldiers going to the war. The country I'm living, Vietnam, the wars, men were actually volunteered to become soldiers and fight for independence; they risk their life for the love of the country. Though of course, our wars ended up with massive casualities, many men couldn't promised to come home with their family.
After I realized what was the meaning. This song didn't fail to make me cry
This makes me want to cry.
only if wars never existed.
Real rip 🙏
I hummed this song to my pet as we drove to put him down, and now im humming this to my new pet cats i was gifted. Full circle moment.
This song makes me feel really connected to something like i listen and watch anything to do with ww2 and i have flashbaks of me being a 20 yr old man in war with an injured leg bcs i sometimes experience leg pains so i feel rlly idk connected and i get flashbacks..
On my left leg I feel pain
I also feel connected to this sond because my granduncle died in WW2 when he was only 19
“But he never even made it to his twenties”
By far one of the saddest lines I’ve ever heard in a song, particularly because of how real this is for too many 😢
This song is so haunting yet so enchanting sounding, as if I'm contacting the spirits of all the dead soldiers in the battlefield and each one has a lot to say; thank you for making this amazing lyric video I really appreciate it!❤
I hate how sad this song is. But I love it both at once.
Two of my uncles died very young in the Iran-Iraq war of the 80s. I wasn't even born when they died. My grandmother buried one son and had to bury another 8 years later. She never deserved that heartbreak. It feels like something that's ingrained in my family. I wish my grandmother never lost her sons and my dad never lost his brothers. I think about the children they could've had, maybe they would've looked like me. Maybe we would've grown up together
can gladly say ive loved kate bush for years. i got the opportunity to hear her when i was way younger and have always appreciated her lyrical genius and voice
“Wars are old men talking and young men dying” -A wise person
Realizing the meaning is so sad im crying this is so sad
As a teenager, I had this thought. That I wished that armies weren't necessary. That they didn't exist. I said this to someone who was an EMT, who went to work with the military. I understand better why he didn't like that sentiment. A halfbaked, incomplete thought from a kid. Not even from their country. Who is very privileged.
As an adult, I still feel that way, though. I wish that armies and the military were not necessary. That no one had to take up arms to protect the lives of innocents from people who want to do harm. That no one had to make friendships so strong that you'd die for each other, only for that to actually happen because of the occupation. That no one had to come home feeling disconnected from the people around them because still carry around all that horror from being deployed. I can better form the thought now. And at the end of it, remember to thank those people for taking on the things that break so many, keeping millions of people like me from having to go through it.
I wish I could apologize to that person.
I relate to this for the recent wars in other countries that I sobbed for
i have been listening to this on repeat for like 8hr
This song: exists
Warrior Cat Fandom: It's free real estate
"We've a bunch of purple flowers to decorate a mommy's hero. Mourning in the aerodrome, the weather warmer, he is colder. Four men I uniform to carry home my little soldier." To all the mothers and families who lost their baby boys or anyone in stupid wars I am truly sorry.
This is the saddest and realistic song I've ever heard... ❤U KB for this art piece
Trend❌ Meaning✅
I was lucky enough to have my great grandfather come back from nam in 73 but he always talked about his friends he made when I showed him this song he told me most of them fell like how this song said “army dreamers”
Great song.kate is a very unique talent.
the font is perfect and so's the background and this video for such a song
My father was in the military, yes. He had been a high ranked soldier, he fought hard and for many years. He has passed, this song reminds me of him, the way he had been fighting for his country.
The lyrics “What a waste, army dreamers.” Remind me of him, his dream was this, he thrived for this and struggled many rough years, but what he got was death, he died on the battle field, I find myself visiting this song and even though it was created a few months ago, I think it’s relatable for me.
Army Dreamers single off the album Never for ever released in 1980. 44 years ago. Kate was 22 years old. Music and lyrics by Kate Bush.
This song makes me cry
My grandpa fought in ww2 he has the the 1000yard foot stare he showed me his army boots and dog tags and he said he lost all his friends in front of his eyes
"What could he do? He shouldve been a rockstar." Sally face core
This reminds me so much of Jason Grace it hurts.
(For my Percy Jackson fans, imagine Hera is the one singing)
STOP YOU DIDNT HAVE TO ADD HERA, IT WAS BAD WITH JUST JASON.
@@5-Koa-5 I knowww but it fit so much I couldn't help it :(
this is about ACTUAL PEOPLE dуing on ACTUAL wars IN REAL WORLD
jeez, kids these days
@@AggressiveSpaghetti Woah there no need to be pressed! Sure, it is a SONG written as a tribute to soldiers dying on war, but that doesn't mean you cannot link it to a fictional background where the same scenario occurs. (Btw, the character I was referring to was literally a child soldier)
@@Invel-967okay? This song also talks about child soldiers, specifically those who died before they could even turn 20
This song makes me tear up everytime i listen to it :,)
As of now, I'm not even in college or near the age to go, but I've been told to go to the army. Finding this song and about the meaning kind of scares me a bit.
My brain running through a list of characters this could apply to.
FRRRR
you know wars are real, right?
@@cupidsruin uh, yeah? What… what was the point here?
your whole bloodline
@@Slipperiest currently im the last of my bloodline so thanks i fucking guess???? what??/
This song gives me coraline vibes like the beat and music when they sow the little me with button eyes even if they crop out the voice
The song: Talking about a kid joining the army for money
The people: The creator.......the oc
This so beautiful trend
The part about not having money for guitar and lacking education always makes me tear up. Did we really could not get him that? Was it so hard? 😢😢
This is so so so much harder to listen to now that i can hear “MOOOOM” when they say “what could he do” it’s so so so distressing
This hit hard because deep down inside I kinda want to join law enforcement , I didn’t tell anyone. My parents want me to be a doctor or a lawyer, father says lawyer, my mother says doctor bc I’m good at bio and an excellent debater or so they say. I think both medicine and law are fun but I’m indecisive and don’t know what career path to pick. I’m seventeen and next year will be my last high school year. What sparked this sudden urge to join law enforcement was this game I got as a gift a week or two ago. My father gifted me the latest RE4 remake since I was doing well on my exams. The game is really fun, I have a weak heart but I personally felt a shift in myself. Like I’m not as frightened by things as I was before. I’m so indecisive a few months ago I wanted to be an astronaut. I don’t know what I want to be when I’m of age. Honestly everything seems so fun to do.
I hope you'll find your path. Good luck!
You're only 17! We're the same age.
I've been wanting to be a paramedic for a while now perhaps a year or two but yes you'll figure it out and if you don't like things you can try something new. Research the jobs you'd like to do because that can actually help weed out the ones you're not as keen on! Good luck with everything :)
@@pineapple-pop9936Thank you :) I’ll take your advice and see what jobs I actually want to do. Thanks
In my opinion, you’re stressing over nothing. You’re only 17, you have so much time to see what you want to do with your life. In other words, grab life by the balls and keep going.
@@sandrasorto8375 Thank you, I’ll try. I’m just very worried because I want to make my parents feel proud, and I want to do it as soon as possible. I feel that it’s the least I owe them. I love them very much and I want to impress them by attending a prestigious university and excelling at my future career. This summer was so jam packed with extracurricular activities and SAT prep. I want to ace the SAT on my first attempt (hopefully). I’ve somewhat settled on becoming a lawyer. I feel I sorta have a knack for it though I’m not very confident.
I cried with this song what you listen we had lived in Iran😭😭😭
This is the first song that made me cry like that. 😢
After reading books about Wars this hits different but if I heard this back then I wouldn't of understood.
This is the saddest song I've ever heard in my life
For those who is already in love with this in first sight:
i met this song with my son and i love it ❤
"but im glad he got the best childhood..."
I REALLY REALLY Love this Song
My brother went in the army yesterday and I can't stop crying 😭😭
I hope he comes back safe and sound. Wish you and your family the best.💛💛💛
@@anonymouscausewhynot thanks
I love this song so much ❤❤❤
I just realized that "But he really never made it to his twenties" means he went to war under the age of 20. This is so sad
Many young men aged 18 and 19 are forced to go to war to die 😢
I would like to show all the “sigma boys” who think war is like cod with my little dark age playing on loudspeaker and respawn mechanics
This song will forever remind me of Sodapop Curtis.
HELP WE FINISHED THAT BOOK TODAY IN CLASS
Love that book sodapop was my favorite character from the outsiders
This song breaks my heart
this one hits hard bro
me pone a bailar esta cancion
Thank you Kate bush for making me realize there is other ways to escape the lower class other than joining the military ❤
Wasn’t aware this was an old song, but it’s haunting…
Literally the 0,001% of people who's reading... I strongly hope your parents live longer than 100 years with awesome health
well thank you./pos (im not gonna vent on u btw)
@@haileyegg ok girl
It’s weird to listen to this lol how it’s popular but it weirdly fits? My dad was in the army, two wars, messed his head up, my brother joined, my other brother will soon, and I’m next. Strange
It's from the point of view of a mother. A mother.
@@isobeljames1328 doesn’t really change the fact lol?
I found this song everywhere in my feed so I decided to search up, and now I understand what this song mean
I may soon be one of them
Anyone in 2024 hearing this song? 😢❤
The word “war” angers me.Anything associated with war-I don’t want anything with it.I have lost so many people because of war.
Rest in peace dreamers…
This song is strangely comforting, yet so disturbing. So uneasy but hits so hard.
i dont know why but i love this song
Reminds me of the young shouldiers during the Liberation War.. aww....
Also Eren from AoT
I like the daily uploads!!! Also good songs every day! 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥

Mine: 👀

mine: 💫
I shouldn't have searched the lyric video, i didn't plan on crying today
I keep replaying this
Every time I listen to this I feel like I'm in the violet evergarden anime
I may be a military buff with hardset plans for joining the military, but the song kinda hits hard.
But like, fuck it. I was raised to be in the army, my dad would've gone to the army if not for hearing loss, my grandpa was a tanker, and my great grandpa was in drafted into wehrmacht from occupied poland and defected to join the British army. I simply can't imagine myself in any other occupation. So to hell with it, might as well.
Song released in 1980. It's not about you or your family. It's just from the perspective of a mother. A mother.
@@isobeljames1328 Well I saw alot of comments here about people's personal stories and their perspectives on war, so I thought I'd give my cent to the conversation. Sorry if that offended you.
@@isobeljames1328 Yeah, but the guy was just adding his perspwctive and thoughts that came from the song.
@@therandomname69420read his comment again
this song is beautiful but it turns out that it sounds a little sad but I really like this song🎀🎀
This is a very sad but very pretty song. I wish we could hear it sung in a lower pitch
Big part of soldiers are forced to join because of money issues or other stuff, war is only leaving corpes behind and grieving families and no honor badge will bring loved ones back.
Not people gatekeeping the song in the replys 💀
Saying that with a pfp from Hazbin Hotel made by a woman who has videos of girls getting raped in her yt playlist, has drawn zoophilia, has made transphobic remarks to a trans person, and has drawn art of a minor being groomed by an adult is a little risky, buddy!
BEATIFUL SO PRETTY
Surprising that so many people in the comments instead relate this song to fictional situations than actual wars. Seems like we are way too sheltered that war seems like an intangible concept to us.
I get what you mean, but at the end of the day it is a song so there isn't exactly a limit for its interpretation. (I personally do not like the idea of war, so I am thinking of a fictional scenario because I like that safe distance. Again I do understand the tragedy of war and I do not disregard it, I simply choose not to fully embrace it. )
@@Invel-967 Art can be interpreted in many ways; you'd be correct. But there's somewhat of a moral unspoken rule that if the song is about a political bias, it's to be treated as it's meaning.
@@dulcetscreaming You put it very nicely. To be fair, I think that if we choose a more loose interpretation while still showing respect to the tribute and the purpose of the song we are within moral rules and guidelines 😌.
I see this song for a lot fictional stories that are just as dark, when you take all the fancy details, its someone who never got to make it to their true potential, and a beautiful life wasted.
Weird considering how the world has never known peace since before 9/11 if even then. But again art can be interpreted in many ways... death of the author and all. But yes looking at this, this is a anti war song lamenting a mother's pain after her son comes home to her not by her door but by casket.
But again people can interpret it differently as they wish. As what is art without the ability to interpret things differently
This song gives me creeps but its calming
Not so fun fact: Kate's son actually died in war and she wrote this song about him
Rip
That is not true. smh
