5 out of 5 stars How Can We Give John Anthing Less Than 5 stars.......2000-07-14

A while back, Apple released a double A-side single, "Imagine" backed with "Give Peace A Chance."

Enough has been written about "Imagine." Suffice it to say, "Imagine" is a window into John's philosophical mind and soul. On this CD, you are treated to the standard studio version of "Imagine," and the slightly different "video" version. Interesting to note, John played an even more different version of "Imagine" during the 1975 tribute to Sir Lew Garde, where he sang about "a brotherhood and sisterhood of man."

"Give Peace A Chance" was the anthem of the peace movement during the 60's and early 70's. It is well known that John recorded this song from a Hotel room in Canada (his famous bed-in with Yoko-san). This song may be a bit dated for today's audience; many of whom weren't even born when this song was released in the late 60's. Interesting thing about this song, it is "written" by "McCartney-Lennon." At the time this song was written, the McCartney-Lennon partnership still officially "existed" -- in reality, however, the partnership had disolved. On a side note, the Film, "Antz," featured a version of this song. . . "All we are saying, is give Zee a chance."

Happy Xmas (War is Over) is a very catchy tune. Believe it or not, Yoko-san singing with the children's choir is very effective on this single.

The CD contains three of John's early singles. These singles, along with the video version of Imagine, are good to have.
