I poke around on YouTube now and then, and recently found a couple of recordings of songs related to the war. Here's the links:
The song title is "Tears of God," by a young man named Josh Turner (I'd never heard of him before) and it's about the battle of Fredericksburg.
This one is titled "Going Home," by Mary Fahl (another singer I'm not familiar with) and I believe it's from the movie "Of Gods and Generals."
The following link is for a Civil War video that looks to be either from a movie, or possibly a film of a reenactment. It's titled "Chickamauga - River of Death." There's background music, but no vocal. It's one of the more interesting CW videos I've seen on YouTube. As I said somewhere else, I usually avoid Civil War motion pictures since the dialogue is so obviously fictional, and the actors seldom look like the person they are portraying, but this video, although in the real battles there would have been many more soldiers, gives one a sense of what it must have looked like. Here's the link:
Enjoy
