Happy Xmas (The War is Over)

38. “Happy Xmas (The War is Over)” was Inspired by the lyrics of John Lennon and Yoko Ono.

I’m not one who enjoys many traditional Christmas songs. However, I do have a few. My favorite is “Happy Xmas (The War is Over).” Although its title may upset some of you, you should listen to the lyrics which are full of hope, “ A very merry Christmas / And a happy New Year / Let’s hope it’s a good one / Without any fears” The lyrics are also timely with the hope that we will be able to leave our divisiveness behind, “And so happy Christmas /  For black and for white / For yellow and red ones / Let’s stop all the fights.” In case you’re wondering what my second favorite seasonal song is — that would be Tom Wait’s “Christmas Card from a Hooker in Minneapolis.” Ho, Ho, Ho.
