By Eric Bogle (who also wrote "No Man's Land" ).

Eric was born in Scotland, but has lived in Australia since around 1970. I met him over 40 years ago (how scary is THAT admission?) when we were both playing at a German folk music festival. Those two songs remain to this day two of the most powerful songs decrying the uselessness of war.

"In the Flesh" + "In the Flesh?" - both on Pink Floyd's The Wall.

I'm claiming the prize for the smallest addition to the song title. Though, tying for that, is "Start" by Peter Gabriel (May 1980 - track on "Peter Gabriel". Well, yes, of course, because his first 4 albums were all just called "Peter Gabriel". Do I get a prize for that too?) and "Start!" by The Jam (also 1980 - released as a single 15th Aug).
