- On December 8th, 2022, Popup Choir (Tijmen de Koning and Maarten Bos) joined forces with Dutch broadcaster EO to make a beautiful choir version of Happy Xmas by John Lennon, and to spread the message of peace.
We invited 700 people that never met before (and hadn’t practiced beforehand) in Amsterdam. In just one hour the people learned the harmonies. Then we immediately recorded this version of the amazing song. The result aired on national television on Christmas Day 2022.
Put on your best headphones or turn up your speakers, because it turned out so, so beautiful! Listen for yourself and share with someone that needs to hear this.
Check www.popupchoir.nl to join one of our events. And like and subscribe to our channel to stay tuned for more video’s of people singing together.

War is over if you want it. Always has been, always will be. RIP John Lennon.
Absolutely war could end if humans could put their pride and differences aside, and be civil about issues. I’d like to see it happen in my lifetime.
@@erinjordan8668its the elite who run governments they are the problem to them war is money, they get richer by lobbying governments to spend our taxes on supporting wars while they rake in millions as they have invested heavily in the companies who produce weapons warships fighter jets bombs, United snakes has been the biggest threat to world peace since 1918
@@erinjordan8668 Unfortunately,we humans are created with many flaws.....anyway ,I believe in good .....
If you want it. The very crux of the problem is. Humans don’t seem to want peace. War is over, if you want it. Peace!
@@CherylsCreativeWorld33 I wish with all my heart that your words become the truth.All the best from Belgrade!🌲
Greetings from the USA. Well done and John Lennon would be proud.

It's Christmas, 2023 and this video has given me chills!! Considering our word is experiencing 2 active war conflicts at this time, this moving song has so much meaning. Thank you to all involved!!
There won't be any peace here on earth until the Prince Of Peace comes.

Peace on earth, that's my wish..... please freedom for all peoples of the world... that is all, what I want. For me and my children and the generation, that will follow me....❤
Beautiful! and oh how I wish this was true. It seems more and more of us don't want it but those making money from it continue it.
I so so wish John could see this - he'd be so thrilled. Peace from Wales xx.

Street wise tal.....
Lovely sentiments that don't reflect reality I'm afraid; there'll always be someone in power who will want it and have the means to carry it through. Its human nature I'm afraid now and long after I'm dead and gone.
This is the most touching recording I have heard in believe this will be a yearly tradition beautiful done god bless us lord Jesus and heavenly farther the world needs more love ❤️ and less hate 💞💞💞💞💞💞✝️✝️✝️✝️
Oh ! Wonderhul Thank so much 日本から感動しております。
VERY VERY NICE!! Merry Christmas from the US. I thoroughly enjoyed this lovely rendition, like others here have said, I KNOW John was watching this and feeling proud of all of you, and I also like to think that he might have a tear in his eye, as he has seen that unfortunately we have YET to achieve it. WE MISS YOU JOHN.
Words and songs have such power and love.
Beautifull. Lennon Forever
Замечательно, Джон Леннон. Форевер
Happy Xmas (War Is Over) Lyrics
[Yoko Ono & John Lennon]
[WAR IS OVER, IF YOU WANT IT
WAR IS OVER NOW]
So this is Christmas
And what have you done?
Another year over
And a new one just begun
And so this is Christmas
I hope you had fun
The near and the dear ones
The old and the young
[Chorus: Community Choir]
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
And so this is Christmas (War is over)
For weak and for strong (If you want it)
The rich and the poor ones (War is over)
The road is so long (Now)
And so happy Christmas (War is over)
For black and for white (If you want it)
For yellow and red ones (War is over)
Let's stop all the fight (Now)
A very merry Christmas
And a happy New Year
Let's hope it's a good one
Without any fear
STOP -
WAR IS OVER NOW
WAR IS OVER NOW
WAR IS OVER NOW
WAR IS OVER NOW,
WAR IS OVER NOW.
WAR IS OVER NOW, IF WE WANT IT
WAR IS OVER NOW
WAR IS OVER, IF WE WANT IT
WAR IS OVER NOW…..
MERRY CHRISTMAS- HAPPY NEW YEAR MERRY CHRISTMAS - HAPPY NEW YEAR
WAR IS OVER NOW
WAR IS OVER NOW
WAR IS OVER NOW
nice, you actually listened to all the parts, also the ones we added that are not in the original. Cheers, happy x-mas!
Beautiful to hear and see. Congratulations to you all for the amazing performance. 🇦🇺🇳🇱
Wat een mega ervaring!!! Met 700 mensen en dan t nog zo strak laten klinken👏👏👏🎉
echt een geweldig nummer en een geniaal artiest
Me and my high school classmates sang this song in the 90's part of our Christmas season school program. ❤
God and Jesus are helping to stop war by the raging of the seas…..it is a miracle!! He is allowing the earth to deal with her pain….is it the earth? Is it God? Man does have an effect, but what power do we have compared to God? We have stewardships, but are we supposed to use power over them, or protect them?
Bravo!!!! The best Christmas song ever.thanks
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤GOD LOVES US ALL❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Some of us are pretty sensitive, so the hardships of life can seem to be a lot to handle….may we sleep well, and get renewed strength to face our challenges.
Awesome performance and version. Happy Christmas to All. War is over! Peace prevails. God bless us. ❤
How solemn and magnificent!
Lovely :)
Fantastično!!!!!
Beautiful!

""Spurring the coming of ""END TIME 😰🛏🛏🛏
ja een geweldig nummer Monique
Sing it like it was sung!
A bit premature isn’t it singing this when war will never end but compleat praise for these guys for singing this song.
Of course war will never be over. Not just ‘this’ one..
FFS...the greatest of enlightened Nations, gone Far right...What's hapened?
???
@@Varyanmorningstar my sentiments entirely.
John was feared. He could join people together for the good. Tell me who else did it so direct? Evil is everywhere and music is more n more evil now .
Who has the authority of Almighty God to ""change Original *MERRY CHRISTMAS* to !!! Xmas !!!
😠😤😡🤬
Listen to the words. This song sucks!
Very Well
Very nice Christmas song
