“Give Peace a Chance” was a song by John Lennon. The content of the song was a lot more gentle when you compare it with Pearl Jam’s “Bu$hleaguer”. It was staged in a hotel room in Montreal. Per Lennon, “… alternative to violence is to stay in bed and grow your hair.” The major idea was to promote and protest against violence. Later, the song became the “anthem of the anti-war movement for Americans fighting in Vietnam.”
Pearl Jam’s voiced in his 2003 anti-war message “Bu$hleaguer“ was intensely strong in details. It criticized Bush was not a leader, he was just a “Texas leaguer”. The lyrics carried out strong opinions and anger.
