Elvis Costello – “Peace, Love, and Understanding”

Sometimes it’s important in today’s musical culture to take a step back and re-examine a tune of the past. While constantly bombarded by news and images of war, distress, and natural disasters, it’s difficult to focus on the three tenets of humanity that hold the upmost importance: Peace, Love, and Understanding.

This iconic song by the legendary Elvis Costello resonates like a call for action, an anthem for those wanting to return to a time of optimism and the most basic principles of decency.

It’s a breath of fresh air and still prophetically rings true today decades after the song was written.

So take a listen, whether is brings hope or puts a smile on your face, it’ll have you asking “What's so funny 'bout peace love & understanding?
