Cass Dillon sings "Christmas in Fallujah" by Billy Joel

The anti war song "Christmas in Fallujah" is the second new pop song Billy Joel has written since his 1993 album, “River of Dreams". The song is performed by 21 year-old Cass Dillon.

“I didn’t feel I was the person to sing this song,” said the 58-year-old Joel. “I thought it should be somebody young, about a soldier’s age. I wanted to help somebody else’s career. I’ve had plenty of hits. I’ve had plenty of airplay. I’ve had my time in the sun. I think it’s time for somebody else, maybe, to benefit from my own experience.”
