[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 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 👑
@@idzbbyboy There's only one thing, and that's the undertaker.
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
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?
A minute of silence for all the kids we've ever lost to war, friends, family, dreames.
tu ta pelle taklu
NO U TAKLU
Buddyy we are the same person
tf u just say to me
NO You
“Wars are old men talking and young men dying” -A wise person
1:29 I love how you can hear the soldiers yelling in the background. It really paints a picture in your mind.
" 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
@Literarycanine yesss
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.
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 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.
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
No matter what we do it won’t go away, that’s just a fact of human existence
Condolences to him, May God put him to paradise.
This song is SO devastating. I actually feel troubled😭😭
IKRRR (REIGEN ARATAKA SPOTTED 😍)
It oddly satisfying
This song remind me of a french poem called " le dormeur du val" by Arthur Rimbaud
trying my hardest to not say bsd reference
@@Thesleepiester good to know I’m not alone
I love that guy
@@nandixc3551 the struggle is real
@@Thesleepiester true
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
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.
What trend? Maybe there are two but a lot of the edits I've been seeing were really meaningful
@@Jubilee_mae the oc and creator one, I don't think it's still a trend tho
@@littlegirl2903 ohhh yeah I agree
‘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...
“but he never ever made it to his twenties”
This line hits hard…
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

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.
You aren’t seeing combat in the navy unless you’re a corpsman
This song reminds me of the friends my grandfather used to tell me about, the ones he lost overseas.
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 👑
Man, that sucks. Shoutout to all the teenagers who lost lost their life in war.
@@Toxic_choclate wth..... when?
I'm referring to the song. I've also heard of some cases where teens lost their life because of war. 8n the song, she clearly talks about her son not being able to reach his 20s. Then, clearly, he was in his late teens. Think about it
@@idzbbyboy in ww1 and 2 and even more recent wars 19 and 18 year olds die while fighting
Let us stand in silent respect for all those Army Dreamers,
Legends that never got a chance to shine
i feel like this song isn't a boy's mother POV, but rather from a neighbours who knew the boy and his family perspective. they're telling details about the family they were familiar with ('lack of money', 'boy being too young' feels like a discussion between family's friends.)
'four man in uniform to carry home *my* little soldier' feels like whole neighborhood liked the boy and were friends with his family.
@@Adr3n0chr0m3But "My little Soldier" sounds more like something a Mother would say to her son tho
While the line "We've a bunch of purple flowers to decorate a mammy's hero" sounds more like the neighbors speaking and mourning like they are all coming with flowers to the boy's funeral
@@heydat1guygavin395 i interpreted "my little soldier" as a nostalgic thing, like if neighbour and family's friends remembered soldier as a little child they knew for years that was very dear to them
“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 😢
"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.
After I realized what was the meaning. This song didn't fail to make me cry
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
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.
Did men received some privileges as the class that did that?
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
You should probably get that checked out, just a suggestion. It might not be serious.
Having flashbacks of ww2 seems very interesting but unnerving at the same time.
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”
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
That is so sad. Rip ❤🕊
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!❤
only if wars never existed.
Real rip 🙏
We wouldn't have call of duty
@@dirtydead4144 true but what is more important
@@CiElitOo0O Real
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 they 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.
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.
Realizing the meaning is so sad im crying this is so sad
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
1:27 You can hear a soldier calling for his mother.
crying rn
I never noticed that omg
Huh
Omg that hurt😢
I hate how sad this song is. But I love it both at once.
The weather warmer but he is colder literally made me pause the song and contemplate life
For my own use 0:21
Mine to
Mine three
Mine four
I relate to this for the recent wars in other countries that I sobbed for
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.💛💛💛

The teaching profession is a very important profession because it teaches us many lessons. Without it, we would be nothing. Without the teaching profession, we would never work.
This makes me want to cry.
Great song.kate is a very unique talent.
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? 😢😢
"What could he do? should have been a father.." hits me hard.
i have been listening to this on repeat for like 8hr
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.FireFly.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
Remind me of my favourite uncle.decided to become part of the military,and fight for the country.He was meant to come home .and 3 days before the reunion,he died.and rather than getting our beloved uncle at the door,an invitation to the funeral...
This song is strangely comforting, yet so disturbing. So uneasy but hits so hard.
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.
@@zennysbasement9669 I am so sorry
@@zennysbasement9669 Fuck anyone who’s doing this to you
At almost the very end of the song you can hear "mommy's darling". I love this song. The song of a mother's love and grief of her son.
2:07 my fav moment
I agree ahah I love that part
Same
Same
I used to listen to this song and thought it was about something romantic, melancholic, or even sweetly sad, but now the reality reveals itself in a devastating and irreparable way. Kate was extremely wise to create this song exactly in the context of the time it was released. The reality of war is incomprehensibly cruel and hard to digest, especially when we think of the human suffering of young lives that are destroyed, and the families left with an eternal hole in their hearts. It's unbearably sad to think of so many young men going to war, carrying dreams and hopes, believing they're fighting for something greater, or simply hoping to come back with the sense of a mission accomplished, only for it all to be brutally torn away. With that, everything is taken from them: their lives, their futures, the chance to grow, to err, to learn, to form families, and to live in peace. Each of these men had a story, a smile, a unique way of seeing the world, precious memories... and all of that is undone, often by something even the people involved don’t fully understand or control. The cruelty of this reality is painful and hard to accept, because we all know that the suffering caused by these events (and so many other violences around the world) is indescribable, irreparable, and irreversible. Yet the war machine keeps turning, muffling the voices of those who suffer, the voices of mothers who will never again hear, see, or speak to their sons. Honestly, I don't think I'll ever listen to this song the same way again, but the art that Kate Bush managed to create with it, so melancholic and tragic, remains one of the greatest works of reflection on human suffering. Simply incredible.
As a veteran it breaks me every time i hear about those who don't come back as well as those who do only to be used to promote the idea that any of this is okay. In the end we are all somones child and lose is lose. We are all human right and wrong is decided only by whos telling the story.
Man i cant help but tear up when you think about War and the waste of life it brings. No matter where we're from, most young army dreamers who fought against each other would've been friends, Chucking back a few colds bottles and cracking jokes if placed in different circumstances... Come quickly, *Lord Jesus*
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.
Can't believe this song made me cry twice, no other song has done that
For all my.old mates in the Roysl Navy....we certainly did our bit. This song hits home
Hey if your reading this, just remember that this pain is temporary and will not last forever, and while your going through it your not alone we are all in this together doing the best we can, I'm proud of you for still being here fighting everyday, cus it's really not easy but you still strong enough to not give up, know that I care about you and I'm glad your here, your feelings are valid and I believe you'll get to a better place with time. I hope this helps, you don't have to accept my comment or like it but I just did it for the people who needs it. Remember to drink water get some rest and check on your loved ones❤️.
I found this song around the same time we started studying the Vietnam War in History at my school. We read a book, which was a collection of short stories, called “The Things They Carried” written by a Vietnam veteran. Listening to this song while reading one of the short stories about a young soldier they lost was unbearable.
I don't understand the coincidence i just stumbled upon this song and just 10 mins ago.. i was reading a thousand splendid suns just now and read about Ahmed and Noor and all i think about is Mammy singing this.. out of all the ugly things and humans created, war is the ugliest
If you guys wear headphones on the left headphone is the guy singing and the right is kate singing
my fav song to listen to at night
A song comment section that isn't a calendar, I'm impressed
I was the reminder for half of the comments for this masterpiece/sad song :)
Was reminder to you
@ aww thanks!
This is the saddest and realistic song I've ever heard... ❤U KB for this art piece
This song made me cry 😢
This song makes me cry
on loop, a strange and odd music tune like you're searching for a place that doesn't exist, yet the lyrics are sadly relatable for many, many people
I always cried when I listen to this song .. I remember Palestinians childrens 💔 they not even in a army💔🍉
So many civilians die in war. Men, women and children.
A not so fun fact: Half of the Casualties in WW1 were civilians
the font is perfect and so's the background and this video for such a song
This song: exists
Warrior Cat Fandom: It's free real estate
I showed this my mom. She said what a lovely song and did a little dancing and when I explained what it was about. She said why would you make me dance for this huh?
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
That reminds me of Paul, the main character from the All Quiet on the Western Front movie/book. That book does not shy away from the brutal reality of WW1 and I recommend it if that’s what your into. Be ready to sob though...
This song made me cry. My heart hurts
This song makes me tear up everytime i listen to it :,)
My grandfather joined the Filipino army, when he was 17. he wasn't in his twenties yet. he cant be a politician, due to corruption and bad education. he cant be a rockstar, because we were poor. but now, for him at age 70, he is pretty doing good. Just never give up.
"but im glad he got the best childhood..."
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 breaks my heart
It’s so. Nice that this song hits different it has. A different voice a different meaning a differnet meaning and an angelic voice I love this song!
I swear i heard someone shouting "Mom!" when the person says "What could he do?" and it gets louder after each "What could he do?" And also, right after "Mom!" I hear something like "Aim!" And also, i may be delusional, but istg i hear someone shout "Fire!" A few seconds after 2:20 or something
Don't forget to feed your 4 cats...

as a Ukrainian, I feel this song so much
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
I have an uncle who went to war and didnt come back. My aunt was a medic. As you could imagine, it severly messed her up. This song always makes me super emotional when i hear it. He left behind a family and i never even got to say goodbye. Shi sucks.
After reading books about Wars this hits different but if I heard this back then I wouldn't of understood.
What if we lived without wars and hatred? Just live in peace..
"What could he do? He shouldve been a rockstar." Sally face core
😬
This song reminds me all the young talents who were crushed by the war in Afghanistan.🖤
As someone who is generally not the most physically well, it terrifies me to be in selective service while watching government tension increase, i know that if a war starts, i will not make it, guess its time to start considering Canada or something.
I may not be someone that knows the insides of the military and how they operate. But I'm pretty sure they have people that would manage reports and logistics. After all, an army can't sustain itself and it has to have someone plot out supply line routes and whatnot. Furthermore, if you're someone that can speak multiple language I'm sure it'd be great to have you as a radio operator to intercept any comms and gather intel.
I joined at 17 years old the military is not that bad buddy I promise there’s not much to be scared of there are plenty of support jobs where you just sit behind a computer.
Thank you for this, captions on other videos has really gone crazy and it never said the right things.
Now there is a video that has lyrics (this video duhh)
really random but for the marauder fans out there..
"What could he do? Should have been a rockstar. But he didn't have the money for a guitar." - Sirius Black
"What could he do? Should have been a politician. But he never had a proper education." - Regulus Black
"What could he do? Should have been a father. But he never even made it to his twenties." - James Potter
"Oh, what a waste of all them army dreamers." - The Marauders Era as a whole
That hit me like a punch in the gut
I cried with this song what you listen we had lived in Iran😭😭😭
i met this song with my son and i love it ❤
