Patriotic Lennon?

"Obviously, the ... of this CD doesn't remember Lennon or the views he was expressing in the song, Imagine. I was amazed it was used on the TV tribute and am even more amazed it is on this CD. He was against war of any kind for any reason. He was also against government/country. Listen to the WORDS people!"

Good Music

"Nothing outstanding but its a nice collection of music from various artists. Not necessarily the best or most patrotic songs but solid performances from George Throrgood, Lee Greenwood, John Lennon and others. People shouldn't rate the CD based on a song that was released with the permission of an artist or their representatives either. Save it for an message board or a letter to the prodcuer of the CD, or the folks who control John Lennon's rights. Probably Yoko Ono."

Misses the Point

"With two anti-war songs (Imagine and 4th of July) the compilers of this CD demonstrate they have aboslutely no clue what they're doing. The could have put Lennon's "New York City" and any number of songs by the Beach Boys on here to illustrate patriotism or solidarity for the victims of NYC. Instead they simply shame themselves and the buyer."
