When hostilities began in 1914, there were of course no war songs as such. In their absence soldiers, as well as those left behind, took over existing Music Hall favourities; sentimental ballads like 'There's A Long Trail A-Winding' and novelty numbers like 'Tipperary', together with the occassional survival from earlier wars, such as 'Goodbye Dolly Gray'.
