    I think I'll close out the evening's festivities with two from, arguably, the BEST "supergroup" ever

    You won't understand, but this song is in the Limburgs dialect and is about my hometown,

    Cas, that song has a nice sound. The melody reminds me of an American or Irish folk song, but I can't remember which one.

    Melody reminds me of "Keep on the Sunny Side" by the Carter Family, although "keep on the Sunny Side" has a faster tempo.

    Still, the melody does remind me of several American folk songs, Just this one popped into my head first.

    Tnis song is actually about the Cemetary:

    Translation

    In the morning when the fogs lifts
    Out of the white cloud 1,000 crosses slowly appear

    An endless field of honour
    Every cross is a hero
    On each cross a black raven is sitting

    What was it worth to you to throw away your life overhere
    For a small country you didn't even know of it's exsistance
    What was it worth to you fighting for other people
    When you didn't have to if it was up for mother to say

    When I look upon these rows of white crosses
    I realize what you have done for Limburg
    To chase away the enemy, you had to risk your life
    And could'nt go back to America

    Every Cross is a monument for some strange man
    who gave his life for us
    The most just 20 years old, were there for us
    The hell on wheels couldn't be stopped by anyone

    What was it worth to you to throw away your life overhere
    For a small country you didn't even know of it's exsistance
    What was it worth to you fighting for other people
    When you didn't have to if it was up for mother to say


    When I look upon these rows of white crosses
    I realize what you have done for Limburg
    To chase away the enemy, you had to risk your life
    And couldnt go back to America

    50 years we are free and all this time they are here
    They gave all they had to give
    In the early morning sun, lies here private Washington.
    I ask myselfe: Would I have done the same for you '?

    What was it worth to you to throw away your life overhere
    For a small country you didn't even know of it's exsistance
    What was it worth to you fighting for other people
    When you didn't have to if it was up for mother to say


    When I look upon these rows of white crosses
    I realize what you have done for Limburg
    To chase away the enemy, you had to risk your life
    And couldnt go back to America

    Anyone else having problems going back in this thread? Not worth the computer lockup to look back, so will just repost my favourites.
