One of the saddest songs I ever heard was Eric Bogle's "Green Fields of France" inspired by the writer visiting a WW1 military cemetery. The Fureys' version is the best...
"But here in this graveyard that's still No Man's Land
The countless white crosses in mute witness stand
To man's blind indifference to his fellow man.
And a whole generation who were butchered and damned."
