Anti-War Songs - The horrors of war and promoting peace

Paul McCartney: 'Pipes Of Peace' � Lifted from his 1983 album of the same name, this number one hit was Sir Paul's plea for world harmony. The promo video depicted the 1914 Christmas Day truce through the separate stories of a British and German soldier (both played by Sir Paul) when they met up in no man's land to exchange photos and play a game of football. A bomb forces them back to their respective trenches where they both realise they still have each other's pictures.
