The West's anti-national anthem, Imagine. A good article showing that the pianist who showed up at the Bataclan actually does this all the time at such incidents; and the meaning and reality-denying use of John Lennon's Imagine.
Pictures were snapped of him on his bicycle heading to the Bataclan, piano in tow, determinedly heading to the scene of the tragedy. While playing, onlookers took videos and photographed him, ostensibly due to the heavy contrast of something so beautiful and hopeful amidst a scene that is so horrific.

It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for,
And no religion, too
Imagine all the people living life in peace…
