One of the little-known and yet most poignant and powerful anti-war songs in the Poyzer set, this true-story looks at the experience of the boy coming home, reflecting on the trauma through a troubled mind. Performed on this occasion with the brilliant and incredible backing of Fluff on the violin. Featured on the 2003 live concert DVD 'Global', filmed at The Globe, Glossop, England.
