John Lennon,
for all his outward cynicism,
was the Beatle with the most unabashed,
sincere childlike wishes for the basics:
Love and Peace.
It's perfect indeed
that another unabashed romantic,
Sarah McLachlan,
has chosen to lead off her very 1st X'Mas CD
with "Happy X'Mas (war is over)".
She covers the song with affection,
with exactly the same arrangement,
a choir of children happily joining in at the end.
The Lennon Legend lives on.
And so do our hopes for wars being over.
Happy Christmas!!! | Happy Xmas (War Is Over) | | Wintersong | | Sarah McLachlan | |
