Light Up The Tree, Mister President (And Bring John Lennon With You)

December 21st, 2007 // 6 Comments

wandlaura.jpgThe efforts of Clear Channel’s programmers have probably helped you already get sick of holiday music, but there are many fine celebratory songs that would never cross their airwaves out there. To help cut through the clutter we’ve asked Jon Solomon, whose 20th annual 24-Hour Holiday Radio Show on WPRB kicks off at 6 p.m. on Christmas Eve, to offer up some seasonal cheer in MP3 form. Today’s song brings together George W. Bush and John Lennon’s Christmas wish for the world:

I am surprised with how thoughtful and well-crafted this “mash-up” is. The Lennon song isn’t one of my favorite holiday tunes, but I think this is pretty remarkable.

    Bush is the Decider.
    Not the Listener.
    Or, apparently, the Uniter.

    Hmm that was weird, my comment got eaten. Anyway I wanted to say that it’s nice to know that someone else also mentioned this as I had trouble finding the same info elsewhere. This was the first place that told me the answer. Thanks.
