I don’t know the song, but what you described sounds horrible.

There are songs so completely owned by one artist it should be criminal for anybody else to cover it; The Christmas Song (Chestnuts Roasting) by Nat King Cole, Merry Christmas Darling by Karen Carpenter, Holly Jolly Christmas by Burl Ives, you get the drift.

It's called "Happy Christmas (War is Over)".

Personally, I didn't find the song itself that dreadful. I'd skip the video and just listen to the audio, the video is depressing and designed to shock. Yoko doesn't screech and scream, so her vocal contribution is tolerable. Saying that it's not awful is faint praise, so this isn't an endorsement. Only a total cynic like John Lennon would turn a Christmas song into a protest song.
