1. K&R because it made me tear up...
We wasted everything those brave men sacrificed for us when the Supreme Court annointed an usurper to the White House...

I know it was a British song, but it is all about sacrifice for the defense of country....

3. I teared up as well. The piece seems about loss and hope, to me.
Two sides to a coin lost in the political tug of war we wage here, as is necessary, but a note to remember those that hope to come home and the loss of those that won't.

5. From the brilliant Roger Waters

Does anybody here remember Vera Lynn?
Remember how she said
That we would meet again
Some sunny day
Vera!
Vera!
What has become of you?
Does anybody else in here feel the way I do?

Roger Waters lyrics



Rec!

6. When the war was over,
we spent what they had made, but, in the bottom of our hearts we felt the final cut.
