The Beatles and some other great musicians (in several different genres) because they have written and performed lots of music that has made me happy!!!

Went to my 1972 class reunion last night -- our theme song was IMAGINE -- fortunately the principcal never listened to the words. Probably the closest thing to an atheist-peacenik anthem there is.
