On New Years Eve in Times Square they will probably play John Lennon’s Imagine [Yes, they did, right before the ball dropped!]. Lennon’s song has also resonated with folks from the Occupy Wall Street movement. “Imagine” was one of the tunes sung by the small group of stalwarts who gathered at Liberty Square/Zuccotti Park for Christmas.

Below the first video are links to lots and lot of videos of Occupiers singing Imagine.
