3. It's political, just more abstractly so.
It's difficult to see the politics without pictures of dead children, but the song urges us to "give love (and ourselves) one more chance," and to look at ourselves and change.

It captures the essences of both Christmas and politics.

6. Anyone remember the Freddie Mercury tribute concert?
David and Annie performed there as well. Very moving.
