This war we fight is not our own.

Listen to what I'm hearing

I find this song to be very moving. For those who didn't click, it's Voltaire's "Crusade." Most of the songs I've heard of his tend to be funny, or at least upbeat in nature (even if it's because it's mocking what could possibly be a serious topic). However, this song is pretty dark and I think pretty damn timely (though, when won't it be timely, since this age old battle has gone on for so long?) Even those songs that have darker sounds aren't necessarily, I dunno, as powerful as I find "Crusade."

Not sure why I really wrote this. Perhaps I was avoiding the research I was doing for my story. Maybe I just felt moved.
