Some good news for a change, the release of the POW's in Serbia. Any favorite songs of peace in celebration?

Well, I'm glad they forgot about Ton Orlando and Dawn and "Tie a Yellow Ribbon 'Round the Old Oak Tree."
How 'bout the one that goes to the tune of FINLANDIA?

It may seem premature, but how about "The Great Storm is Over" by Bob Franke?

Hullo, I'm new, I found the Mudcat Cafe this week, and am just catching up. I hadn't realised that the hostages had been released. Dredging through my memory, most songs are anti-war, or people cross-dressing to stay with their sweethearts. The one that describes the utter waste and futility of war, with the contrasting gentleness of peace is "No Man's Land," which I am just learning. It gives me goose pimples!!!!!. Hwyl.
