Give Peace A Chance

What is Give Peace A Chance?


1.

a simple quasi-folkish tune written and recorded in a hotel room (during a "bed-in" for peace) in the Queen Elizabeth Hotel in downtown Montreal, Quebec, Canada in the late 60s. John Lennon of the Beatles and his new bride Yoko Onowere there on their honeymoon and they wrote, performed and recorded the song in that room, along with some special guests singing the chorus chant. This song has become an antiwaranthem and since then has been played and chanted at numerous anti- Vietnam Warrallies and at rallies opposing wars thereafter.

At the Ohio State UniversityOval in January 1991 I saw an antiwar demonstration against the first Gulf War (first war against Iraq). The rally organizers played many rock'n'rollantiwar songs, including "War" by Bruce Springsteen and "Give Peace A Chance". People kept on chanting, "all we are saying, is Give Peace a Chance".
