league of nations


composers
Lyrics: Kerr
Music: Simple Minds


publisher

background
League Of Nations was hurriedly recorded as the B-side for The American. It was never really completely finished, really only being a melodic idea and a fragment of an instrumental.

It was fleshed out more during their live shows, and a recording from Hammersmith Odeon became a bonus track on the Sweat In Bullet single.

The live version included extra lyrics (which can be heard on the Sweat In Bullet single). Unfortunately it's very difficult to make them out.
