And that is the beauty of it. We listen to the same song, but love it in a different way. To me that is something very special. Also when I listen to it, i feel like we are a bunch of fools that live trapped together on one planet, everyone has different interests. We all care so much about our little problems. While hey, this is one small planet earth, there might be so much out there. We are just one tiny place in the universe. It might sound childish, but as I write this I remember an episode of South Park, where planet earth is introduced as an intergalactic reality-tv show. Where people of different races are put together on one planet and the aliens watch us fight for entertainment. It really makes me think about what the hell are we doing? BROTHERS IN ARMS | Reviewer: Jed | 4/22/09 I d like to add the correct information about the song.. This song was written at 70s but it was NOT released until 1985.. There are two versions of it technicaly, and the last version is shorter.. This refers to an event which MK has faced..But he is not happy to tell it anywhere... He used ery special guitar to play this one.. Pensa Suhr MK1 ... It is known as Stradivarius of the Guitars... Very special made by maple.. This information is somehow-something "hidden"... the meaning | Reviewer: cameron | 12/13/08 this song is about the brave men who left everything they had and loved to fight for thier country. All they had was a rifle and the men next to them. Those men being thier "brothers in arms". They didn't have thier mums, wives or god, just a rifle and brothers in arms. Brothers In Arms | Reviewer: Celt | 12/9/08 It is.. heh "simply" a song about revolution and the sad destruction of live's revolution and war entails. Some hope is amended to the fact that, us humans, to date, still manage to finish our mutual destruction and maintain some bonds of "humanity" or brotherhood, if you prefer. I care not what war or "revolution" it was initially written for, it applies to all. We do what we feel we must do, all of us. my opinion | Reviewer: gabryiaxx@hotmail.it | 9/10/08 I can only guess what this song's about, but i don't mind it; my thought is... sometimes the result trascend the aim... so the lines, "...and we have just one world, but we live in different ones", are of the highest poetry. Surely M.K. intended to say a particular thing with that,but they for me can mean another whole thing... and that's not misunderstanding, that's the poetry. my opinion | Reviewer: gabriele | 9/9/08 I can only guess what this song's about, but i don't mind it; my thought is... sometimes the result trascend the aim... so the lines, "...and we have just one world, but we live in different ones", are of the highest poetry.

Agreed | Reviewer: Tuan | 6/10/07 I think so, war is a waste of lives and destroy everything we try in this world.Make love not war, why do we have to kill the others ?For whom and for what do you think this war bring to us?
