I’ve always liked the song “Galveston”. I didn’t know that it was intended to be a protest song against the Vietnam War. Glen Campbell turned it into a pro-troops song.
I never knew that about Galveston either. Absolutely fascinating factoid.
The song wasn’t written as a protest song. Jimmy Webb wrote it about the Spanish-American War.
