Cee Lo Green changes lyrics to "Imagine" to fit his religious beliefs.
Instead of singing "Nothing to kill or die for/and no religion too", he changed it to "and all religion's true".
Nice and inclusive, but I think if he had a problem with the lyric he should have found another song for the New Year's celebration. I'm sure he's stunned at the controversy, and his intentions weren't to offend, but it speaks to how religious people are isolated amongst themselves to the point where they really don't understand that others don't believe as they do.
And if that didn't occur to him, then the Cardinal Rule of music is you DON'T EVER mess with Lennon/McCartney songs. Don't cover them, don't sample them, don't remix them (unless you are the reincarnation of George Martin). Just don't touch them.
