According to the UN High Commission for Human Rights, the “Caesar with no shirt” (thank you for this name jannesan) and his naked aggression has resulted in 10,403 Ukraine civilian casualties between February 24, 2022 and June 21, 2022. During this period, 4,634 people were killed, including 1,780 men, 1,194 women, 131 girls, 148 boys, as well as 41 children and another 1,340 adults whose sex is unknown.

According to Wikipedia, Around 7.1 million refugees fleeing Ukraine have been recorded across Europe, while an estimated 8 million people had been displaced within the country by 3 May.

Interpretation
This is a ballad of solidarity.
The into begins with destruction and pain; ominous synth and low-register brass
The verses offer a glimpse of hope and resistance; guitar pad
The chorus and bridge reminds us that the Russian bear is never too far away; ominous synth
The outro speaks to resilience, resistance and final victory; uplifting synth and trumpets

My goal is that someone from Ukraine who somehow may listen to this, would understand this message of empathy, hope and solidarity despite cultural and spoken language differences.

Ukraine! We Stand By You

There was an Asus to A discussion here not long ago. It was in regards to this song. Hopefully you can hear the tension and release.

Comments good or bad are welcome. Thanks for listening if you do.

For me there’s no better place in the band than to have one leg in the harmony world and the other in the percussive. Thank you Paul Tutmarc and Leo Fender.
