this must be the most mis-reprisented track of all time

 

why is it bracketed with the crimbo songs? 1 line and a jingle?...

 

the song is a protest song, protesting against nuclear proliferation and the (then) prospect of a nuclear war.

So is Happy Xmas (War is Over) - a protest about Vietnam and not simply a John Lennon Christmas card.

 

It also has a nice line in salvation army style brass which is fairly synonymous with Christmas and, most importantly of all, it was released around Christmas time.

 

'Mad World' by Gary Jules is on all the Christmas compilations and that has less in common with Christmas than anything.
