I came up with the idea of making a playlist with 1950's and 1960's pop/r&b/soul songs depicting how war affected the relationship between lovers. I believe most of us associate "war songs" with politically charged lyrics and angry protest singers. That's not what I'm looking for this time. I'm looking for songs about love, waiting, faithfulness, loneliness, yearning, missing, etc., related to the Vietnam war. Preferably, ballads from the second half of the 1950's to the first half of the 1960's. But I'm open for all suggestions. Thank you!
Examples:
The Four Fellows - Soldier Boy
Johnnie & Joe - Over The Mountain, Cross The Sea
The Heartbeats - A Thousand Miles Away
The Orlons - I'll Be True
The Ronettes - Soldier Baby [[Of Mine)
The Shirelles - Soldier Boy
The Supremes - Your Heart Belongs To Me
The Players - He'll Be Back
