A song written from the point of view of a mother whose son joins the armed forces and may be sent to die.......Style is roughly folk-rock, musical arrangement influenced, to some degree, by Fairport Convention.

The name Cross Dresser for the band page came about because my mostly male collaborators were singing my female viewpoint lyrics! BTW Here are some links where you can find more songs by SongBird Cooper, that's my songwriting name, and co-writers. http://www.soundclick.com/bands/5/songbird...rationmusic.htm SongBird Cooper/Andrew Richardson collaborations: http://www.soundclick.com/bands/5/songbird...rationmusic.htm Cafe Rouge Capital of Mistletoe What Song Don't Bob Marley and Septic Snag SongBird Cooper/Dave collaboration Opium Rose http://www.purevolume.com/montober SongBird Cooper/Walter Farmer collaborations Kyoto (the world looks fine to me(NOT!)

Story behind the song
In the early days of the War on Iraq I kept imagining what the mother of a young soldier would be thinking and feeling...... Are You Sure They got it Right is made up of some of the things that were turning over in my mind................. The musical arrangement is Chris Bluemel's.... We were both very active in the Stop The War Protests in UK.
