A Song For Ukraine: John Lennon's "Give Peace A Chance" To Play On Radio

Sunday, March 6, 2022

Around 150 public radio channels across Europe will play "Give Peace a Chance" at 0745 GMT on Friday in solidarity against the war in Ukraine, the European Broadcasting Union announced.

The track, penned by John Lennon, will be heard in more than 25 countries including Ukraine, while European commercial radio stations will also join in the moment, the EBU said.

"This powerful call for peace through an iconic song will resonate with millions of listeners," said EBU director general Noel Curran.

The idea came from German public broadcaster RBB.

"The horrors of the war against Ukraine are more apparent every day. Our solidarity, our humanity and our support are needed," said RBB chief Patricia Schlesinger.
