"Abraham, Martin and John" is a 1968 song written by #DickHoller. It was first recorded by #Dion, in a version that was a substantial North American chart hit in 1968–1969. Near-simultaneous cover versions by #SmokeyRobinsonAndTheMiracles and #MomsMabley also charted in the U.S. in 1969, and a version that same year by #MarvinGaye became the hit version in the UK. It was also a hit as part of a medley (with "#WhatTheWorldNeedsNowIsLove") for #TomClay in 1971.

It has been 61 years since that fateful day in Dallas. Sometimes the worst of times bring out the best in creativity.
“Didn’t you love the things that they stood for?
Didn’t they try to find some good for you and me?
And we’ll be free
Someday soon, it’s gonna be one day”
What the world needs now is love…
