There is something surreal about War Pigs .The wail of the sirens at the start and the totally stripped down sound with only the faint drumming when Ozzy sings those immortal lines and the guitar lick at the end of each line.The bass being totally not subdued.There is a certain Naiveté to the lyrics even though its an anti-war song.Its got a definite sadness and a finality to it but yet in an eerie way its an all is not lost song.Its got an ambiguity which I can't describe. Bill Ward's drumming is excellent.It's a song that gives me hope.always.It is a song which restores sanity and alleviates pain.
Faith in humanity has gone down a few notches and don't know when I will get it back again.I am tired of playing games all the time.I have a sudden craving for simplistic quick solutions.
