| | War Time |
| | Many of the songs they listened to had no war theme, some where about the war, and some of the songs they listened to were not meant to be about the war but the soldiers put their own connotations into the song. | | | Lennon’s most angry song of the bunch is "I Do not Want to be a Soldier."(lyrics) The music is a powerful and distorted electric guitar, but the lyrics are simple. | | | Appropriately the last song in the war time period is "Happy Xmas (War is Over)"(lyrics) by Lennon and his new wife Yoko Ono. |

| | mediageek: It Takes A Poll to Add An Anti-War Song |
| | These songs are sandwiched inbetween a blitzkrieg of commercials and blaring DJs that have no other purpose but to get you to buy shit anyway. | | | If an anti-war song is in demand, then they'll play it, but don't expect Clear Channel to start chanting anti-war on the air outside the song. | | | And I'm sure Clear Channel's classic rockers are probably playing old anti-war songs by the Beatles, Crosby Stills and Nash, and such, primarily because the songs are so entrenched and worn-in that, to an extent, their meaning has been lost, or even just misunderstood. |

| | It said the channel had to be careful with song title and lyrics, and with content in videos even if the songs themselves were not likely to cause problems. | | | The guidelines are similar to those used in the first Gulf War of 1991, when songs were banned if they had dubious titles or lyrics. | | | During the 1991 Gulf War, Radio 1 banned several songs, including Phil Collins' Something in the Air because they could be construed as being insensitive. |

| | Thankfully there was at least one refreshing anti-war song, if a war song can be characterized that way. | | | The lounges in the gentrified and boho sections of large cities have plenty folk singers performing "love not war" songs while their audiences munch on vegan burgers. | | | And those few songs that have tackled the topic of war have left a lot to be desired. |

| | The July revolution of 1830 reinstated the song, which was rearranged by Hector Berlioz, and it was adopted as the national anthem under the Third Republic in 1879. | | | Thierry Klein reports that the song originally had seven additional verses which didn't survive into any official version. | | | In short you can think of La Marseillaise as being The Marseille (Song) with song quite happily allowed to fall by the wayside under the rules of French grammar. |
