Only War Will Win
(from ‘King & Country’)
Lyrics Jane Bramwell Music Michael Brand
f
This is one of three different selections of songs featured in Bramwell and Brand’s musical
‘King & Country’ which received its premiere performances in Brighton, England in 2014.
The show dramatically portrays what it was like for the men who fought in WW1…. what was
it like for those who came back blinded or shellshocked… and for the families of those who
did not return.
Choice is a recurring theme of the show: men choosing to fight or not, women who have little
choice, and the choice for Christian men. In the end the members of the audience must make
their own choice. ‘Only War will Win’ is a featured song with a powerful message in the last
Act which gives time us to reflect.
