Review about John Lennon songs
One of Many Warnings | Reviewer: Old History Marm
    ------ About the song Working Class Hero performed by John Lennon

Lennon had it right! Consider also the other bards of that period. There's John Fogerty's "Who'll Stop the Rain?" and "Wrote a Song for Everyone" ; Bob Dylan's Masters of War"; Simon and Garfunkle's "Sounds of Silence", and of course, Don McClean's "American Pie"---last verse,"...I went down to the Sacred store where I heard the music years before but the man there said the music wouldn't play, And in the street the children screamed, the lovers cried and the poets dreamed, not a word was spoken, church bells all were broken and the three I admired the most, the Father, Son and Holy Ghost, caught the last train for the coast, the day the music died" How sad and stupid can a people be? Wake up Americans!!! old retired teacher

Heroin' s effects | Reviewer: Ilovedogs
    ------ About the song How Do You Sleep? performed by John Lennon

It is well known that John was at the moment Heroin addict, and is well known that this drives paranoic too, otherwise he wouldn't have witten, and sang so cruel words. Everyone of the four Beatles were really great, and their music is really eternal, and maybe this was beacause they were do strickly friends...Surely John had suffered for the lacking of his parents, while Paul lived within a great family, even if he lost his mother when he was 14.
The difference is that Paul has been able to build another great family of his own, while John has not.
Even their wonderfull songs show the difference between them.
But I don't forget that Paul answered to this song singing Here Today, that is as so many Paul's song. a really love song...
I think Paul had a positive vision of life, John always a critic one.

    ------ About the song #9 Dream performed by John Lennon

"When you accecpt the inescapable nature of the mastery asemptote, you realize the joy isn’t in the destination (which will forever elude you), rather, it’s in the journey. The joy is in all the little wins, the little discoveries, the gains you experience along the way."

    ------ About the song Imagine performed by John Lennon

Anonymous, who wrote the message from March 23rd: I'd beg you not to say that things about the Bible and the Christianism in general because you are getting as low as most of the dulls who critisize this song for being 'heretic'. I believe in God but also love this song and I don't think these lyrics put down religion in absolute, I think these lyrics transmit very well the message of love and peace from Jesus, indeed. You just try not to hurt the believings of the other although they injure yours (I know it isn't easy). Profit that advice because you are young and it can be useful for you.

    ------ About the song How Do You Sleep? performed by John Lennon

It amazes me that so many people claim to know for a fact what motivated John and Paul's behavior.

Seriously guys, not one of you know a damn thing about the personal motives of these men. You are simply projecting your biased ideas about people you have never met.

I have read several books about the Beatles, and the only thing I know for a fact is that both John and Paul were extremely talented.

Everything thing else is just background noise.

    ------ About the song Woman is the Nigger of the World performed by John Lennon

Some of these reviews say this song is bullshit and that women have power today. While yes, us women do have power to do what we want, that's not what he's talking about.

He means in the social context. In the social context, he's absolutely right. Maybe you don't like his extreme comparisons (using the word 'nigger' or comparing women to slaves), but that doesn't change the fact that society does make women paint their faces and dance.

Basically, women are expected to be pretty so they can attract a man and have kids with him. They get called ugly so they'll put on makeup and look pretty. But after they have kids they'll be called ugly all the same.

Is it worse in 3rd-world countries? Absolutely. But I can tell you that, as a woman, I can still feel the pressures he describes today.

    ------ About the song Imagine performed by John Lennon

I am tired of all these Jesus lovers putting down this song. John was clearly sharing his thoughts, as he always did, and its rude to put him down for that. This song was not included ended to be about religion, it is about world peace, about everyone living and loving the same way. And, yeah, John was an Atheist....but how do you know that Jesus and God saved us. Hmmmm? You go to church an are preached to about how magnificent God is and you read the Bible and seem to know what he did to save you, and you believe it all when it could just be nonsense. How do you know it was/is real? Who documented all these things in to a Bible? Do you honestly think that the Bible's words never have gotten changed over the thousands of years? And God was just some being the magically came from nowhere, like a wizard? And he impregnated Mary how? By waving a wand? Also with Eve supposedly coming from Adams rib, how does that work when the woman has the children, which then grow up to be men? Tell me where he came from and how he did all this, then maybe I'll change my mind. Now I'm sure that all I have said is considered a sin, so please brothers and sisters pray, oh do pray for me (sarcasm).
By the way I'm a 14 year old girl who is obviously way more intelligent than you people.

Women are a bunch of lards and bloodsucking leeches | Reviewer: The Son Of Slave
    ------ About the song Woman is the Nigger of the World performed by John Lennon

Im tired of the free liberal women who just annoy the fucking shit out of me, we give them equal everything and they still fucking annoy. We do the working the women do nothing. Nothing, and that is reality. The are cash pigs and do anything, marry anyone, who has money. Because of them, their inferiority and dehumanizing the world is a immoral place. Niggers? My moms doesn't go out of the house if we tried to drag her, she has 4 servants exclusively to work on her house. I was brought up by nannies and servant, she is not worth the space or rank that "some" say a mother has or does. Never did she ever help me on anything. Niggers? Then what the fuck am i? What the fuck am i? I am single and won't ever ever change that. Fuck'em. Hate them. Money sucking leeches.

SO TRUE | Reviewer: Poetico
    ------ About the song Woman is the Nigger of the World performed by John Lennon

Black men won the right to vote 55 years before women did. Lennon is right, Women are the Niggers of the World. Women do 90% of the world's work and only receive 10% of the wealth.

    ------ About the song Woman is the Nigger of the World performed by John Lennon

This is more crap from an over zealous kiss ass liberal. And it's not true...woman have lots of power, it's the ones that do nothing about it or just accept it that are the fools...look at every commercial or Tv show... the man is always stupid and the woman is always smarter. Women can murder (abort) her baby without care or thought to the man...and then claim it is murder if someone causes her to lose the baby, if she miscarriages. It's total bullshit. I equate it to black people and abusing the race card, truth is they don't want racism to go away, they would lose that power to toss around. Take our token president, everyone is afraid to say anything against him and if you do you are labeled a racist. And he is a dumbass, if anyone thought Bush was stupid...Obama is more stupid, he spent more in 4 years than Bush spent in 8, It's a double standard.
