Happy Xmas (War Is Over) • Vocal version

I like this composition as it's not just another Christmas song. it is something deeper and more powerful - a rallying outburst of cry for the long-lasting peace around the globe as the war was going on. It seems to me that the song's going to be spot on and 'contemporary' for years taking into account what's happening in the world now. The Christmas connotation is however what makes it very warm and hope-giving, a perfect feel-good holiday anthem that it great both as a sing-along and a piano solo work to play at gigs and close-knit group meetings. I loved the fact the arrangement has it all, including the complete lyrics, the fingerings and an optional accompaniment for guitar as well. Well recommended to all the performers.

The message if this song is so strong and the music so touching...

Ein ewiger, legendärer Klassikr von John Lennon... Ich bin kein Fan von Weihnachtssongs, aber keine Regel ohne Ausname. Absolut zeitloses Stück, der einzige Weihnachtssong, der mir gute Laune bringt.

Christmas in the mid-summer? Easily! That's a perfect song for creating the Christmas mood! It's been years since I watched that episode of The Idols, what a talented generation!
