"Liza Mulholland is based in Inverness. Her song was inspired by the scale of killing in Iraq which made her think about Eric Bogle's anti-war anthem, Green Fields of France/No Man's Land, and 'how, ninety years on from the First World War, we have the same old utter horror and futility of war, with its terrible loss of young life on both sides, supported by the same old lies and platitudes from right-wing politicians.'"
La canzone è ispirata direttamente a The Green Fields Of France (No Man's Land) di Eric Bogle, una delle più famose canzoni contro la guerra di tutti i tempi, e una delle nostre "canzoni fondamentali". Bogle, come l'autrice di questa canzone, è scozzese di nascita (seppure emigrato in Australia da moltissimi anni).

"La radio al buio e sette operai,
sette bicchieri che brindano a FIDEL,
e SANTACLARA arriva nella cascina e nel fienile,
vola un berretto, un uomo ride e prepara il suo fucile:
sulla sua STRADA FERRATA IL TRENO BLINDATO lo sa,
d'ora in poi troverà SANTACLARA in ogni città".

Ci sono due palazzi.
Uno è il centro commerciale con la sua bella insegna, il tetto iperbolico e le vetrate lucide che lo fanno sembrare un autogrill da superstrada per Marte. L'altro, un parallelepipedo dritto pensato da qualche geometra con le coliche è il call center. Uno è fatto per essere guardato e infatti lo vedono tutti. L'altro è invisibile un po' perché non fa piacere vederlo, un po' perché il gemello sgargiante che gli sta accanto si prende tutta l'attenzione. Però si fa sentire. Ci parli al telefono quando ti chiama a casa per venderti un aspirapolvere o un nuovo piano tariffario.

"I know this song is not political. It does warn against the perils of a nuclear war and crazy leaders who might push the button. Some may think it refers to Israeli leaders, some may think it talks about other countries’ leaders. We are not taking sides. The message we wish to convey is that all we want is to live, smell the flowers bloom and have fun. Last year all of Europe had a laugh on horror movies monsters from Finland. This year we give the opportunity to laugh on the living monsters among us”
