[PAR] [TLE] Christmas Time (Is Here Again) [SEP] "Christmas Time (Is Here Again)" (Lennon/McCartney/Harrison/Starkey) is a Christmas song recorded by the Beatles for their 1967 fan club Christmas record.  After being slated for inclusion in the planned (but ultimately scrapped) "Sessions" compilation album in 1985, the song finally saw official re-release in 1995 on the "Free as a Bird" single (issued in conjunction with the "Anthology" series), for which it was edited from its original 6:17 to a shortened version of 3:03.  The song opens with a light-hearted tune from all four of the Beatles and occasionally cuts to a tale of the Beatles arriving at the fictional BBC house.  This part of the song was cut from the 1995 single version.  The song then closes with a Christmas greeting from all four of the Beatles.  At the end, "Auld Lang Syne" is played on the organ as Lennon reads one of his original nonsense free verse poems. [PAR] [TLE] Free as a Bird [SEP] "Free as a Bird" is a song originally composed and recorded in 1977 as a home demo by John Lennon.  In 1995, a studio version of the recording, incorporating contributions from Paul McCartney, George Harrison and Ringo Starr, was released as a single by the Beatles.  It was released 25 years after the break-up of the band and 15 years after the death of Lennon.
