They shall not grow indie as we that are left grow indie

Two events got me thinking about this - "Pipes Of Peace" on Popular, and Radiohead's rush-releasing their charity new song about recently-dead WWI veteran Harry Patch.

Have there been any good modern day pop songs about World War One?

The criteria being:

- must be specifically about World War One (not just war in general) (but being about it in the video counts, cf PoP)
- must have been recorded and written after World War TWO

There's no particular reason there SHOULD be good modern WWI songs of course, any more than there should be good modern Napoleonic War ones. But are there?

The field as I understand it:

- Radiohead's thing
- "Pipes Of Peace"
- "Stop The Cavalry" (unless it's too general)
- "All Together Now" by The Farm.

Good grief.
