Written in 1971 by John Lennon
It would appear that John Lennon originally wrote Happy Xmas (War is Over) as an anti-Vietnam song; however, with over 50 artists (including the brilliant Jessica Simpson) covering this song for Christmas albums one would wonder if it is still thought of as an anti-war song??
John and Yoko's song is played extensively on the radio at Christmas time therefore, I am led to believe the masses consider it to be a Christmas song...and I am definitely a lamb so that is why it is my #13.
*This song should never have been covered, especially by Jessica Simpson and Celine Dion
