Tuesday Sniping: Pack Up Your Troubles Edition

The First World War began a hundred years ago, 1914. The final studio album by the original formation of Echo & The Bunnymen paid tribute to that conflict. In the dittie selected for you here from 1987, you get a mashup of the British Army on the march, with bits of Kipling thrown in for good measure.

They give us hope
And teach us well
With magic moons
That cast a spell
And hypnotise
And draw us in…
I believe, I’m believing…
