Almost anything by Eric Bogle - be it from laughter or sadness.

I had a down day on Monday and listened to three of his albums on the bounce. This one in particular got to me :-



When I was a young man I carried my pack

And I lived the free life of a rover

From the Murrays green basin to the dusty outback

I waltzed my Matilda all over

Then in nineteen fifteen my country said Son

It's time to stop rambling 'cause there's work to be done

So they gave me a tin hat and they gave me a gun

And they sent me away to the war



And the band played Waltzing Matilda

As we sailed away from the quay

And amidst all the tears and the shouts and the cheers

We sailed off to Gallipoli



How well I remember that terrible day

How the blood stained the sand and the water

And how in that hell that they called Suvla Bay

We were butchered like lambs at the slaughter

Johnny Turk he was ready, he primed himself well

He chased us with bullets, he rained us with shells

And in five minutes flat he'd blown us all to hell

Nearly blew us right back to Australia



But the band played Waltzing Matilda

As we stopped to bury our slain

We buried ours and the Turks buried theirs

Then we started all over again



Now those that were left, well we tried to survive

In a mad world of blood, death and fire

And for ten weary weeks I kept myself alive

But around me the corpses piled higher

Then a big Turkish shell knocked me arse over head

And when I woke up in my hospital bed

And saw what it had done, I wished I was dead

Never knew there were worse things than dying



For no more I'll go waltzing Matilda

All around the green bush far and near

For to hump tent and pegs, a man needs two legs

No more waltzing Matilda for me



So they collected the cripples, the wounded, the maimed

And they shipped us back home to Australia

The armless, the legless, the blind, the insane

Those proud wounded heroes of Suvla

And as our ship pulled into Circular Quay

I looked at the place where my legs used to be

And thank Christ there was nobody waiting for me

To grieve and to mourn and to pity



And the band played Waltzing Matilda

As they carried us down the gangway

But nobody cheered, they just stood and stared

Then turned all their faces away



And now every April I sit on my porch

And I watch the parade pass before me

And I watch my old comrades, how proudly they march

Reliving old dreams of past glory

And the old men march slowly, all bent, stiff and sore

The forgotten heroes from a forgotten war

And the young people ask, "What are they marching for?"

And I ask myself the same question



And the band plays Waltzing Matilda

And the old men answer to the call

But year after year their numbers get fewer

Some day no one will march there at all



Waltzing Matilda, Waltzing Matilda

Who'll come a waltzing Matilda with me

And their ghosts may be heard as you pass the Billabong

Who'll come-a-waltzing Matilda with me?

Well, seeing children suffering usually dose it for me.

On a lighter note though... seeing Southampton getting one over Portscum.. I mean Poertswa.... erm ... Portstosse... PORTSMOUTH is another thing that guarantees to get me crying with joy.........:wah:

well, at that rate I would have said onions!

"Remember When" by Allen Jackson

Always makes me think of my grandmother, aunt, & mother & their marriages. They've all passed away now.

"you are so Beautiful" makes me all gushy, because my youngest son (at the time 11 years old) insisted on me playing it one night on the computer and I didn't understand why...once I played it...he took my hand in his and we slow danced to the song....okay I'm blubbering, just thinking about it......-1:-4

Another one for me was "She Thinks His Name Was John" by Reba McIntyre.

Mags totaly agree, also I love The Carnival is Over by the Seekers, makes the hairs on my arms stand up very moving.

Another from Eric Bogle.......................

The Heroes Return



My youngest son came home today,

His friends marched with him all the way,

The flutes and drums beat out the time,

As in his box of polished pine,

Like dead meat on a butcher’s tray

My youngest son came home today.

My youngest son was a fine young man,

With a wife, a daughter and two sons,

A man he would have lived and died,

Till by a bullet sanctified.

Now he’s a saint, or so they say,

They brought their Saint home today.

Above the bombed and battered streets,

The lowering sky looks down and weeps,

On children’s blood in gutters spilled,

In dreams of Freedom unfulfilled,

As part of freedom’s price to pay,

My youngest son came home today.

My youngest son came home today,

His friends marched with him all the way,

The flutes and drums beat out the time,

As in his box of polished pine,

Like dead meat on a butcher’s tray

My youngest son came home today.

hiya,

will tell you something weird about phill collins " against all odds " it was played at my husbands funeral two years ago next october and i've never been able to listen to it since.

anyway, my hubby had had several goes on his local pubs christmas raffle, they still included him in the draw for the prizes ( actually i think it was a bit of a fix !! ) and he won first prize, a dvd with two films included with it, one of which was "buster " where the song,against all odds, came from in the first place.

its all in the box under my bed cos i still cant think of it without crying, let alone watch it.

my gran used to sing this to me we would both be in floods of tears
