Oh! It's A Lovely War!

John P. Long & Maurice Scott
Oh! It's A Lovely War!
Risalente alla II guerra mondiale, una canzone terribilmente ironica in puro stile yankee (nel senso migliore del termine). Testo ripreso dal canzoniere "Shay, Pious Friends and Drunken Companions", e riprodotto dal Mudcat Café.
The song "Oh! It's a Lovely War" was written by J. P. Long and Maurice Scott in 1917 and was part of the repertoire of music hall star and male impersonator Ella Shields.

Intorno a questa ed altre canzoni risalenti alla Grande Guerra è costruita l'opera musicale "Oh, What a Lovely War!" realizzata nel 1963 da Joan Littlewood and her Theatre Workshop, sulla base di "The Donkeys" di Alan Clark e di "The Good Soldier Švejk" di Jaroslav Hašek.

Song Itineraries: World War I (1914-1918)
If you want to help us with the translations (there's a lot of work to do and we can't manage it all by ourselves) it's now possible to search the songs that have not been translated into some language. Just insert the languages you know to easily find a song you can translate. Thanks!
