First Aid Kit Cover of Buffy Sainte-Marie “Universal Soldier”

“Universal Soldier” is a great song off Buffy Sainte-Marie. This protest song was written in the early sixties by Buffy Sainte-Marie. It's about individual responsibility for war. First Aid Kit wanted to sing this song because, unfortunately, what Buffy sang about at her time is still is so true today and will probably be so for years to come. First Aid Kit changed the lyrics a bit to make it more relevant to today's society. Here the Swedish duo First Aid Kit offer a lovely version of the song.
