"In Dulce Decorum" was a single released by The Damned in 1987. The song was originally recorded for the ''Anything'' album, but was issued as a single to promote the MCA retrospective ''Light at the End of the Tunnel''. The track was inspired by Wilfred Owen's poem ''Dulce et Decorum Est'', and began with an excerpt from a speech by Winston Churchill. The single, The Damned's last to break into the UK charts, made #72. An instrumental version was included in the ''Miami Vice II'' original television soundtrack, being featured in the third season episode "Walk Alone". MCA also issued the single in Germany. Here is the speech: Let us therefore brace ourselves to our duties, and so bear ourselves that, if the British Empire and Commonwealth last for a thousand years, men will still say, "This was their finest hour." -Excerpt of Speech given by Winston Churchill to the House of Commons as the Battle of Britain Begins, 18 June 1940 〔http://www.thenewearthworks.com/Articles/292949/The_New_Earth/SCHOOL/Fins_e_portfolio/Finlays_writing_work/Essay_on_Churchills.aspx〕 ==Track listing== # "In Dulce Decorum" (Jugg, Scabies, Vanian, Merrick) - 4:47 # "Psychomania" (Jugg, Scabies, Vanian, Merrick) - 4:03 Bonus Tracks on 12" single: - # "In Dulce Decorum (Extended Version)" (Jugg, Scabies, Vanian, Merrick) - 5:58 # "In Dulce Decorum (Dub)" (Jugg, Scabies, Vanian, Merrick) - 4:41 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「In Dulce Decorum」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
