"May There Always Be Sunshine"

"Malaika"

"Peat Bog Soldiers,"
a song from a World War II concentration camp), India (
"Ragaputi"

"Kevin Barry"

"Shtille Di Nacht,"
another World War II era song).
's own compositions are consistent with the international theme, starting with the leadoff track,
"Oh, Had I a Golden Thread,"
about the "rainbow design" the singer would weave to bring the world together, continuing with
"All Mixed Up,"
about the racial intermingling of all peoples, and concluding on a massive singalong of his hit
"If I Had a Hammer,"

makes many of his usual stops, promoting international understanding and deploring war in its many varieties, and getting his audiences to sing with him. ~ William Ruhlmann
