"When John and I were sort of talking about world peace and love and all that kind of thing, bed-ins, etc, you know people were just laughing at us," Yoko Ono told Reuters recently. No one's laughing anymore, fortunately. Ono is teaming up with Hard Rock International for an Imagine There's No Hunger campaign, which kicked off November 4. The initiative will be funded with help from SERVE3, a compilation consisting of:
Bruce Springsteen “Remember When The Music”
Joss Stone “Love Has Made You Beautiful”
My Morning Jacket “Look At You”
Avril Lavigne “When You’re Gone”
Robert Randolph & The Family Band “Diane” (Live from Bonnaroo 2006)
The Charlatans “Complete Control”
Ryan Shaw “People Get Ready”
Marc Broussard “Keep Coming Back”
Starsailor “Military Madness”
Micki Free “Mother Earth”
DMC “I Be Rockin’ It”
The Chapin Sisters “I Know It’s Over”
John Lennon “Give Peace A Chance”
Hard Rock locations will also sell Imagine There’s No Hunger merchandise, including a limited-edition bracelet, pin, and holiday ornament. And here is the video.
