Note: I really, really hate this song.

“Road to Moscow” is my husband’s favorite song. He is probably the only person, other than Al Stewart, of course, who actually knows all the words. It does evoke the pain and hopelessness of war and the Moscow campaign in particular, as well as the fear the Germans had of getting caught by the Soviets. Hate the song, but fills the bill.

For American cultural hisotry, how about American Pie?
Could do “Vincent”, too, European cultural history.
