“Who’ll be there to catch their dreams as they fall
Who’ll be there for the children
When their nightmares call…”
Said of this song:
For a man so prolific; Wily Bo Walker somehow manages to maintain an exceptionally high quality standard with his songwriting; listen to the languid and darkly beautiful ‘For The Children’ to hear the words of a master of his craft.
He skirts ‘politics’ with the couplets ‘Oh Angel / I’ve heard so many lies / But with the wars in the East / Corruption to the West / How the Hell are we ever gonna survive?’ all alongside the chorus ‘And who’ll be there to catch our dreams as they fall / Who’ll be there for the children when their nightmares call?’ – Rocking Magpie Review
“Whew! what a song – absolute knockout!” – Tony Fitton, Blues in the Nite
“The impassioned ‘For The Children’ is a cri de coeur for sanity in this world with ‘wars to the east, corruption to the west’. Utterly convincing.” – Grant Moon, The Blues magazine
