CD Reviews

"Hope" for "Peace"

Pat Kelly | Here, There & Everywhere | 04/21/2003

(4 out of 5 stars)

"It's odd that in the US & UK, the major players in the Iraq invasion, this album is called "Warchild: Hope", yet in Canada this album is being released with mostly the same tracks as "Peace Songs". What does that say about how peace sells?At the time of this review, the Amazon.com tracklisting did not include the artist names. Since in many (but not all) cases these are well-known artists, here's the artists involved:1. Loving The Alien - David Bowie
2. Calico Skies - Paul McCartney
3. The Grave - George Michael (a cover of a Don McLean song from the American Pie album)
4. Vietnam - New Order
5. Peace Train - Yusuf Islam (You know him better as Cat Stevens, and yes, he's re-recorded the classic track he wrote over 30 years ago)
6. Love's in Need of Love Today - Beverley Knight (A cover of the first track from Stevie Wonder's Songs In the Key of Life by England's best soul singer)
7. In The Ghetto - Ronan Keating
8. The Beautiful Occupation - Travis
9. Stand up as People - Lee Ryan
10. Nearer - Moby
11. Love Is The Answer - Bassment Jaxx feat. Yellowman
12. We Got to Have Peace - Charlatans
13. Ooh Child - Beth Orton
14. The Wolf Covers Its Tracks - Billy Bragg
15. Hold On (War Child Mix) - Spiritualised
16. Ms Dynamite feat. George Michael - Faith (This was performed live on the Brits awards to a standing ovation. Ms. D changed the lyrics to make them more political)
17. Border Song - Tom McRae
18. Knocking on Heaven's Door - Avril Lavigne (Yup, Avril does Dylan. Well worth the effort.)"
