ABOUT THIS SONG It's obvious where this song came from. As a creative we borrow from one another. One being's inspiration is the fire of creation for another. For over 10 years I participated musically in peace events and gatherings, especially at Unity of San Luis Obispo, California, which had become a higher vibrational center invested in creating a more loving and peaceful world through conscious thought, belief, and action. When I heard the Christmas classic, I heard it as All I Want for Christmas is a world of peace...that was enough to be the catalyst.I wanted to paint a picture of the new world that have continued to hold is manifesting in these times. I put the cutesy little song in F, the Heart Chakra Key and peppered it with the major seventh chords that are so spiritually evocative and attractive. It moves in and out of major and minor so that it breathes with you as you sing it. The bridge completely lifts out of the structure to deliver a free moving jazzy world that reminds me of some Steely Dan interlude. The chorus that carries the familiar words makes it an easy one for an audience to sing along with...all I want for Christmas is a world of peace...pretty please...everybody living in a world of peace...make it happen now... A call for consistent action that tends the personal inner garden, creating the world of peace there first. That foundational frequency would then spill out to be made manifest in form around the world and throughout humanity...why not? ...make it happen now... |

SONG LYRICS: ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS
All I want for Christmas Is a world of peace A world of peace oh pretty please Everybody living in a world of peace Make it happen now Everybody happy They’d have everything they need There’d be food on every table We’d be clothed and clean Smiles on all the faces Love in every heart Clear communication And no words of harm I know that this sounds funny But I know if we believe We can have the kind of world That we all have dreamed of CHORUS No wars and no confusion Everybody dancing free We would sing and we would share In all the world’s beauty Work it would have meaning And would elevate us all We’d have leisure time and money We would have a ball I know that this sounds funny But I know if we believe We can have the kind of world That we all have dreamed of You and I were made for love Our moments could be Wrapped in love We could be cruising’ through the world This world’s a gift for us This world is lifting us So everybody listen And everyone keep wishin’ Let’s make this world our home ©1994.
