Like it or not, it's that time of year known as Christmastime. Aside from the overlooked religious aspect, it is a time when our appetite for consumption is in high gear. With that said, I'm certainly no grinch. Christmas marks the end of another calendar year and the beginning of a fresh one, with all the promise of new (and better) things to come.
Encapsulating that feeling, here is John and Yoko's 1972 classic single that is simultaneously a celebration and protest song that stands up to the test of time and retains its quiet power after all these years due to its gorgeous simplicity.
Enjoy.
