Whatever Will Be Will Be

Whatever Will Be Will Be
From/Da Songs For Change

"Another song by Tom Fairnie. Inspired by the events of September 11, 2001, Tom writes that this song 'is really an expression of fatalism and how we attempt to come to terms with these events but also asks the question "Why is it we retain the ability to carry out these acts, but we seem incapable of learning how to stop them?" '"

Rockets Over Babylon

by Tom Fairnie, Mike Dillon & Bob Shields
Da/From Songs For Change

"Tom Fairnie is an Edinburgh-based singer-songwriter. In his first song, Rockets Over Babylon, 'the chorus recalls the bombing of Berlin, Hanoi and the Lebanon, which is used to emphasise the fact that perhaps this isn't a strategy that works. The song isn't meant to be overtly anti-war but is meant more as a comment on the wisdom of a failed foreign policy that stretches back to the crusades.' "
