With Armistice Day coming up this Sunday, music commentator, Graeme Downes has been listening to protest songs. He chosen 3 that still resonate - 'Talkin World War III Blues' by Bob Dylan, 'Shipbuilding' by Elvis Costello and 'What Passing Bells For These Who Die As Cattle?' from War Requiem by Benjamin Britten.
