We have sung this song in another arrangement many times in concert with Steve Knightley and Show of Hands. This new version by Kirsten Pagel, is for a Female quartet, with rich dark harmonies and a tender, aching feel. We dedicate it to all who have passed through war, both in the past and unfortunately now, in the present. We also sing it for those within our communities that have recently lost a loved one. It has been such a difficult time to be grieving. We sing it for you to remember the best times, the friendship and the comradery and most of all, for the love that you shared together. Our charity for this song, is South Brent and District Caring, a small charity that looks after people in the community, provides crisis relief and comfort. To donate, please visit our fundraising page at: https://www.buymeacoffee.com/thelostsound 60% of the proceeds from this song will be donated to charity. Our whole...    less
