"Give Peace a Chance" is a song written by John Lennon and originally credited to Lennon-McCartney (John Lennon and Paul McCartney). However, when Lennon's posthumous live album with Elephant's Memory, Live in New York City (recorded in 1972), was reissued in the 1990s, "Give Peace a Chance" was credited solely to Lennon. End credits of the 2006 documentary The U.S. vs. John Lennon (in which the song appears) also list John Lennon as the sole writer of this song.Early in the Bed-In, a reporter asked John what he was trying to do. John said, "All we are saying is give peace a chance," spontaneously, but he liked the phrase and set it to music for the song. He sang the song several times during the Bed-In, and finally, on 1 June 1969, rented an 8-track tape machine from a local music store and recorded it in bed.

I think we need to remember we have a voice - and if there are are enough of us using ours, we can change things. We need to practise another "ism": altruism.

The impact this man had on humanity, I can only stop and ask where has the torch been hidden so I can humbly pick it up to continue the struggle through the darkness. Give peace a chance. Thanks to all whom made this possible to view.
