Wikipedia article"'Forgotten Years'" is a song by Australian rock band Midnight Oil, released in April 1990 as the second single from their seventh studio album, 'Blue Sky Mining' (1990). The song peaked at 26 on the Australian Singles Chart, No. 1 on the US 'Billboard' Modern Rock Chart and No. 11 on the 'Billboard' Album Rock Chart. The song was inspired by drummer Rob Hirst's grandfather and father's experience of war and how they said it was up to future generations to avoid wars in the future and not to forget how horrible wars are. The music video was filmed in Douaumont Ossuary, France.
