Bring the Boys Back Home
"Bring the Boys Back Home" is a song from the Pink Floyd album, ''The Wall''. The song was released as a B-side on the single, "Pink Floyd The Wall - Music From The Film".
==Composition==
As the final notes of the previous song "Vera" decay, the listener hears several snare drums articulating a march beat in time, fading in like approaching soldiers. The song proves to be polyrhythmic, as this beat continues unchanged while the orchestra, choir, and lead vocals begin in .
Roger Waters sings the simple and direct lyric in his upper register, stridently, supported by a choir. A IV-V-I chord progression in G major repeats, providing a sense of satisfaction. This is followed by a reversal, from G to D major with F-sharp in the bass, to C major, which features a tritone movement in the bassline, going from F♯ to C, introducing a sense of instability. This progression is a recurring Pink Floyd theme, appearing throughout the album in "Hey You", "Vera", and others, as well as several songs on Waters and company's follow-up concept album on the losses of war, ''The Final Cut''. Waters and choir exhort, ''"Bring the boys back home / Don't leave the children on their own"''. On the final iteration, the song climaxes on the relative minor of E minor. The choir abruptly drops away, leaving Waters' voice alone, agonised and struggling to sustain the high note (the first B above middle C). A lone snare drum also remains, continuing its now-threatening march beat, as voices from Pink's past and present mingle while his manager pounds on his hotel-room door.〔''Pink Floyd: The Wall'' (1980 Pink Floyd Music Publishers Ltd., London, England, ISBN 0-7119-1031-6 (ISBN 0-8256-1076-1 ))〕〔''Pink Floyd: The Final Cut'' (1983 Pink Floyd Music Publishers Ltd., London, England.)〕〔Phil Rose, ''Which One's Pink?
