Name of the Song

The name of the song that I have chosen to use for my music video is 'LU2'. It is by the band 'Freedom to Glide'. The song is from the album 'Rain' which was released on 11th November 2013, for remembrance day. Each of the songs on the album link to World War II in some way and are all made in memory of the people who served in the war. Freedom to Glide are a rock band from Birmingham, England which is made up of two members who both started off in Pink Floyd tribute band. 'LU2' is a vocal, piano and strings piece that focuses on a prisoner of war. This gives their audience an insight into what it was like for the prisoners of war during World War II. This topic is not ne that is usually addressed and spoken about so by featuring it in a song it will speak to people and help them to better understand the topic better.
