Like “Summer Side of Life” which Gregory covered so well last time, this Gordon Lightfoot song touches on the impact of war on daily lives. Written after watching CNN’s coverage of Desert Storm, Lightfoot drew on his early family memories of World War II when writing the lyrics. A cover of “Drink Yer Glasses Empty”.
