I wrote this track immediately after a very moving documentary last year on the last few surviving tommies of WW1. I also wrote a small poem which is below and will give you an idea of the lyrics behind the song.

Poppied Fields - 15th November 2005
Five million men Five million souls
One in five
They gave their futures, they had them taken away
The fathers who never knew
The children who never knew them
They endured the strife and the lice,
the shells and the smells,
the agony and the despair,
the noise and the fear,
Four Tommies remain, have laid down their pain
Age has wearied them, but the years not condemned
The world they are leaving will remember them
and all whose generals force to follow their lead
Whether on far away sands
or in poppied fields.
