Although it’s origin is uncertain, The House of the Rising Sun was most memorably performed by the Animals, an English rock group for whom it was a trans-Atlantic smash hit. They transposed their own narrative onto the lyrics – it became about a man whose father was a drunken gambler. However, the song struck a chord with the troops in Vietnam and ...
Originally written, recorded and released by Bob Dylan – to a positive reception – All Along the Watchtoweris now best identified with Jimi Hendrix. Although it has enjoyed reincarnations under The Dave Mathews Band, The Grateful Dead and U2, Hendrix gave it his stamp with an iconic performance in London on 21 January 1968. Dylan has described his ...
Mick Jagger and Keith Richards drew their inspiration for Gimme Shelterdirectly from the Vietnam War. In a 1995 interview with Rolling Stone magazine, Jagger said: The nugget of a point within that statement is that Vietnam was a war that was vigorously opposed, and the opposition to it formed part of a wider counter-culture movement. Musically, th...
An anthem of the anti-war, counter-culture movement which skewers elites who support the war but refuse to pay the costs themselves, delivered from the perspective of someone who isn’t a ‘fortunate son’ (read: born of a wealthy family) themselves. The song was inspired by the wedding of David Eisenhower’s grandson and then-President Richard Nixon’s...
Although its true origins lie in the Sunset Strip Riots of the late 1960s in Hollywood, a series of ‘hippie’ counterculture protests, For What It’s Worthfrom its inception took on an anti-war mantle.
Another song that was hugely popular with troops in Vietnam, probably because it recalled a nostalgic, peaceful setting entirely at odds with their own.
Another song associated with an iconic film (this time Hamburger Hill), We Gotta Get Out of this Placehad a simple emotional appeal that resonated with US forces stationed in South Vietnam. It was frequently played by US Forces Vietnam Network disc jockeys, and in 2006 an in-depth survey of Vietnam veterans found that it was the song they most iden...
Gaye was motivated by the social upheaval that dominated the 60s and 70s to write What’s Going On. A key experience behind the song was Gaye’s conversations with his brother Frankie, who served for three years in Vietnam, and his cousin’s death in the war.
Plainly an anti-war, counter-culture song (‘War, what is it good for? Absolutely nothing’), War, released in 1970, struck a chord with a disaffected public. It was originally performed by The Temptations, but they were anxious about putting forward such a controversial song as a single. Fans across the nation campaigned for its release, and it fell...
- “Fortunate Son” by Creedence Clearwater Revival. Creedence Clearwater Revival’s “Fortunate Son” is one of the most popular Vietnam-era songs. Written in 1969, the lyrics convey a powerful message about the harsh realities of war and its unequal effects on different classes of people.
- “For What It’s Worth” by Buffalo Springfield. The song was released as a single in December 1966 and became a hit in early 1967, reaching number seven on the Billboard Hot 100 chart.
- “We Gotta Get Out Of This Place” by The Animals. Released in 1965, the song was the band’s biggest hit in the United States and a classic Vietnam War flashback tune for many American soldiers fighting in the war.
- “War” by Edwin Starr. A protest song against the war in Vietnam, the lyrics express a strong and anti-war message. It was a big hit upon release and still remains one of the best Vietnam Era songs ever written.
