BORN: October 9, 1940, Liverpool, England DIED: December 8, 1980, New York, NY John Lennon was born on October 9, 1940 in Liverpool, England. When he was four years old, his parents separated and he ended up living with his Aunt Mimi. John's father was a merchant seaman and John did not see a lot of his father when he was small. As a child, John was a prankster and he enjoyed getting in trouble. As a boy and young adult, John enjoyed drawing grotesque figures and cripples. One of the reasons for his obsession with cripples and deformities was because of the Death of his Mother Julia. The John's school master thought that John could go to an art school for college, since he did not get good grades in school, but had artistic talent. He made it to art school, a More... (Submit New John Lennon Lyrics) (Submit New John Lennon Lyrics) All you need is love | Reviewer: Andreas ------ About the song Serve Yourself performed by John Lennon Manuel, what are you on about the 2nd world war and the ones that fought and all that...If all people had love inside them there would be no need to fight between us (there would be no nazis)... Look at the root of something and not at the surface... The only way to stop injustice is love, if you have true love inside you (and me, and him and her and....etc...) then there will be no injustice! We all need to try and don't sit back and think this is all theory and it cannot happened... If you are not part of the solution then you are part of the problem...and the problem is that we need to give love to everybody... Lennon's world, communism or not: Not possible in this world | Reviewer: Mark ------ About the song Imagine performed by John Lennon You forget Utopia, unified government or global peace will never exist for the simple fact that resources will never be able to be shared evenly amongst people so therefore there will always be strife and competition for goods, services, and consumables such as energy. The only way for a state of living as Lennon describes it to exists is to be part of/the "insert you afterlife of choice, when you pass away, here" because that's the only time that there would ever be the ability to have mandatory resources(Food, water, energy) distributed on an on demand basis to maintain a true communistic utopia. So therefore our best adaptation is a localy managed government that handles a region and generates compitition as a way to effectively manage distribution of goods, services, and consumables, hence capitalism. Not perfect, but the most effective way to deal with the amount of distance and transactions things have to cover to satisfy everyone, whether they worked for them or not. - | Reviewer: riodiculous ------ About the song Imagine performed by John Lennon Im interpreted this wonderful song as mr. lennon's imagination, not his idealism, communism, or any of that. just imagine, just dream. dont take this too serious by judging this as a propaganda or some like that. no offense, but i prefer dreaming rather than take this disgraceful world like there is nothing wrong, even more, maybe we should make a world of utopia, where there hitlers communism or bennys fascist. Love, Peace and Happiness | Reviewer: Shelby ------ About artist/band John Lennon I really think this was a great piece on John. I have been listening to the Beatles and John Lennon since I was very young and I'm only 16 now..I am now writting a paper on peace activists and he was the number one person I thought of... we love you john Lennon, Christian? Yeah, right! | Reviewer: per ------ About the song Serve Yourself performed by John Lennon The Bob person, may I guess-a Christian-claims that Lennon before dying was showing an interest in Christianity. Well, that's a load of shit and wishful thinking. It's funny how Christians try to claim intelligent, critical people to be closet believers. I assume it is because they have nothing of the kind in their churches. Lucy Lennon Psycho Bitch | Reviewer: Angelo ------ About artist/band John Lennon We have all confirmed just how mentally unstable Lucy lennon is. She states over and over again the same bull. She is trying to make a name for herself by hiding behind a computer and posting nothing but lies. She will never admit to who he/she is because of the lies that have been created. I know that if I new something true to the fact I would stand up and show myself to prove that I am correct. John did love May. Learn to deal with it Lucy and get over it. Find a person to love you and you will then understand. Of course it won't be John Lennon but that's o.k.! Maybe go to the nearest animal shelter and get yourself a pet. You can even name it John if it will make you feel better. Take baby steps. yes but! | Reviewer: Manuel ------ About the song Serve Yourself performed by John Lennon Because ofcourse, there's always a but... nice, i like that man, i thinck "he was not one of the badest..." But i have to say that after talk like this, nice, peaceful... we have to admit that without "fighting", humanity would still live in caverns, with power for the strongest...jungle rules... Nice to talk about peace, but sometimes we'll have to fight for peace... (2º world war against the nazis...) the poeple who faught in the 2º world war were not all wrong... thancks to them!!! Easy to talk, talk, about peace, but now we have more than 1.000.000.000 poeple starving, and i will stop listening to charming poeple, sitting on millions, talking against revolutions and promoting peace... they are no thonsands of ways to stop injustices...(history talks a lot about it...) For Lucy Lennon | Reviewer: Angelo ------ About artist/band John Lennon Although Lennon would publicly lament this period, he did not do so in private. Journalist Larry Kane, who befriended Lennon in 1964, wrote a comprehensive biography of Lennon which detailed the “Lost Weekend” period. In the interview with Kane, Lennon explained his feelings about his time with Pang: “You know Larry, I may have been the happiest I’ve ever been… I loved this woman, [Pang] I made some beautiful music and I got so fucked up with booze and shit and whatever.”[24][25] John said it himself Lucy. Remember once something is written you can’t take it back!!! I know you will try to turn it around but don’t bother. Everyone cover your ears and say LALALALALALALALA The Walrus was George! | Reviewer: David ------ About the song How Do You Sleep? performed by John Lennon Both Paul & John are very deeply inspired musicians & writers. I love them both. On thee other hand they both were pretty unheroic when it came to putting songs from George Harrison onto Albums. "It's Only A Northern Song" was originally intended to be on Sgt.Peppers. Nevertheless Sgt.Pepper & Magical Mystery Tour which were landmarks of psychedelic music would of never happened without the vision & rigor of Paul McCartney and can hardly be called "Muzak". Like many artists in the 70's who were traumatized by the sunken ship of freedom's revolution, both Paul & John resumed to more subliminal approaches. Neither of the two remained as bold as e.g. David Bowie, who openley asked "Is There Life On Mars" (See those Cavemen Go...) Here's an example for a guy who has "nothing to say" from the album Memory Almost Full: Lightning hits the house of wax Poets spill out on the street To set alight the incomplete Remainders of the future Hidden in the yard. Hidden in the yard. Thunder drowns the trumpets blast Poets scatter through the night But they can only dream of flight Away from their confusion Hidden in the yard. Undemeath the wall Buried deep below a thousand layers lay The answer to it all Lightning hits the house of wax Woman scream and run around To dance upon the battleground Like wild demented horses Hidden in the yard. Undemeath the wall Buried deep below a thousand layers lay The answer to it all Macca was The Beatles' main sound man... | Reviewer: Rick ------ About the song How Do You Sleep? performed by John Lennon History has shown Macca to be the most prolific songwriter with more hits. Lennon was more of a message song poet than a melodic tunesmith. John wanted to save the world with righteous anthems, Paul gave it more ear candy to fight the cynicism. Humanity is not perfect. But music can be. john lennon | Reviewer: elizabeth ------ About artist/band John Lennon this guy is an amazing person. "OH MY LOVE" is the greatest. i'm super happy that they formed the beatles. their songs are kick ass. who could live without them? they definately made a great difference! Imagine | Reviewer: Ryan Boyce ------ About the song Imagine performed by John Lennon I love Lennon, he's my hero if I ever had one. I'm not so sure about all of this communist stuff people seem to say about him, but for me, this song is a mantra for a better world, not by force, but by truth and the greater human way. Don't hope for a better world when you could very possibly be living the only life you'll ever have today. Love people as your fellow men and women, we all spring from the same earth and no one is above that. Share the love, share your wealth, the true nature of growth is compassion. People take everything he says so literally, trying to twist the words around and contort them into some kind of verbal monster. Take what you will from the lyrics, but only if you really want to make the world a more beautiful place. I love you John, and I'll face the world as purely as I believe you did. No ideals | Reviewer: Jazzy ------ About the song Imagine performed by John Lennon What an idealistic world promoted by Lennon. Again, as long as humanity lives in this world, it seems unworthwhile to think of what would happen in a world such as that. Reality bites, ideals don't matter, except to set a standard we try to attain. Maybe socialism and this song have one thing in common: an ideal that is unattainable. Look at what happened to socialism. As such, humanity will make all ideals falter and crack. It just doesntt work.If we all lived in that manner, we wouldn't be called human beings. Because none of us are perfect - and that is a perfect ideal, peaceful, placid world. Indeed, it is apt to imagine. just what we need! | Reviewer: lennon fan ------ About the song Give Peace A Chance performed by John Lennon thank you sing 365, because i looked for these lyrics somewhere else, and the stupid website said it was by the beatles. wow. anyways, this is what our president and everybody needs to stop and listen to. "all we are saying is give peace a chance!" discarceful! | Reviewer: lucy ------ About artist/band John Lennon HOW DARE YOU USE SUCH A HORRIBLE WORD LIKE THAT IN YOUR BIOGRAPHY! YOU SHOULKDE NEVER SAY THAT WORD THEREARE PLENTY MORE WORDS THAT MEAN THE SAME THING AS "CRIPPLE" IM UTERALLY DISCRACED ITS APOLING! This song will always be special to me | Reviewer: David ------ About the song Grow Old With Me performed by John Lennon It was at our wedding.And after 10 yrs.my wife passed away after a 2yr battle with cancer at 40. this is one of the songs played at her service to pictures from our life together.And through the sadness this song's beauty shinned on what will stay with me,the joy & memories of "sharing our lives together." There isnt enough words to describe the beauty that john lennon created with this song. dichotomy | Reviewer: John ------ About the song #9 Dream performed by John Lennon This song is such a dichotomy to me. The "dream, dream away" part is an absolutely amazing melody !!! ... as a listener, I feel like I am in a dream and am "floating" with the music. An awesome song indeed, until the "ah bowakawa, pousse pousse" part comes in, which may mean something grand, I don't know, but the awesome melody and "dream state" is lost at this part of the song, which is a shame. It's too bad that Lennon couldn't have kept the beginning melody throughout the entire song somehow, something more subtle I suppose. This is probably what kept this from being a great song and more of an obscure one. For example, the song 'Imagine' is simply awesome from start to finish, no "let down" at any point in that song. Anyway, those are my thoughts on this song that could have been another 'Imagine'. It's too bad, he was so close. John is better than Paul | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song How Do You Sleep? performed by John Lennon The reviewer "Abraham" said that John was the one that made coflicts and that Paul never had donde something like this (as we all know Paul never lowered himself making such a cheap and bad tasted song just to counter this attack from John). This CHEAP thing is something that happened because McCartney had donde somthing like this first, and it doesn't matter why, this song it's just GREAT and it's middly offending himself (So Sgt. Pepper took you by surprise/jump when you momma tell you anything) sorry everybody, but John Lennon was the talented, greater and better musician that the HISTORY has had. McCartney is still now SO FAR of having Lennon's artistic level. He (Lennon) it's just AWSOME!! Read me | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Imagine performed by John Lennon It angers me to see so many right-wing cynics dismiss anything meaningful as communist. Lennon isn't calling on a government to impose communism, even if the song shares some of the ideologies. It preaches sharing the world with others and dismissing social boundaries that keep mankind apart. If you think it's based on any system of government at all, you are entirely missing the point. Mr. Lennon is very inspirationale | Reviewer: Anonymous ------ About the song Imagine performed by John Lennon I think this song is realy inspirationale espesialy with that stupid war in iraq im no hippie but this song realy speaks about whats going on and when David sang it on American Idol it blew me away I love this song You could review the artist/band John Lennon in Biography page You could review John Lennon album by visiting Albums page and selecting an album You could review John Lennon song by clicking the song which you like  Download "John Lennon" Music | | ||||||||||
