War Songs – The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly

They go to awards shows, movie premieres, concerts, exotic vacations… but when’s the last time celebrities got together for a good old-fashioned war song? With all this hullabaloo over in the Ukraine, I think it’s time for a star-studded choir to rally morale here at home. Until then, I’ve put together a quick list of ‘war songs,’ which resemble nothing from the all-star track from 1991, “Voices That Care.” I was just a middle school kid, but that moment in time is still something I cherish because my dad was serving over in the Persian Gulf. Wow, that got serious quick, didn’t it? Ok, until Cher comes together with Guy Fieri, Kimmy Gibbler from “Full House,” Deion Sanders, and a group of other randomly assembled celebrities, here are a few war songs… and I just can’t include Brad Paisley’s incredibly bad “Same Here.” If you watch that, you might start a war with me for making you watch it at all.


Edwin Starr “War”… what is it good for?


Guns N’ Roses “Civil War”…


Carbon Leaf “The War Was In Color”…


The Neville Brothers (originally by Bob Dylan) “With God On Our Side”…


Celebrity Choir “Voices That Care”…
