Harvey Milk - Old Glory

Harvey Milk - Old Glory - Taken from the 2006 CD Special Wishes.

This is one of the best songs in history. I had the pleasure of watching these guys in New Orleans on my birthday a couple of years ago. I cried. They make good

One of the best ever songs

[@goober666]

How do you think Old Glory feels
displayed over battlefields
after so long folded away
Flying in the face of her sires
strung out on barbed wire
"Man somebody burn me", I'd say
"Or at least provide an orchestra to play"
"Go man go, don't that trumpet blow"
proclaims the piccolo
now that the violins hold sway
Imagine how the snare drum feels in
comparison to battlefields
when that slutty cello looks his way
Well I swear I've got that feeling now
but can a maestro beat this time away
I really don't know
Well here's what I'd really like to know (***not sure about this line***)
will firecrackers blow
back home on Independence Day
How does a firecracker feel
displayed over football fields
with tnt lately at play
Yeah but hate the price of freedom high
man freedom ain't a word I would say
But what about your father
what would he do?...
Listen I really must confess
that I'm feeling less and less
like sitting here talking to you this way
How do you think my father felt
resorting finally to the belt
with years of patience plainly a waste
Well I swear I've got that feeling now

it's actually my favorite release from them. it really stands alone compared to their other output.

I agree,this was an odd record to make,this is me and Creston s fave album,hands down,best thing we ever did,it just passes people by

[@stevenfoutch6306]

@@stephentanner9767 Had no clue. I'm thankful to own a hard copy of the album. It is truly fantastic.

[@DoglessEndeavor]

Agreed. It's my favourite too. It goes in a million directions at once and they're all equally ugly/beautiful.

[@brosephdoesviddy]

Best song about a flag and war, maybe ever.

[@stephentanner9767]

I have a patreon so does Creston,it’s less than dirt cheap

[@danbrown6513]

In a perfect world, Harvey Milk would be just like this

[@thomasw_]

sublime song, smashing band

[@stephentanner9767]

I have to start using smashing

[@MichieJon]

Best band to come out of Greece, that’s for sure

[@BlackManta_777]

iTunes deleted this album from their store and from my phone. My life has been sadder and emptier since (seriously).

[@thefivewoundsofchrist]

So did Spotify. :\
