John Charles Julian Lennon was born on April 8,1963 in
Liverpool, England. Julian is the son of John Lennon and
his first wife Cynthia. When Julian was born, John Lennon
was in the heap of his carrier and was forced to be a
part-time father for Julian. Julian, as a child inspired
several Beatles compositions; "Lucy in the Sky with
Diamonds" which arose out of a drawing Julian made of a
classmate. The title of the song was actually
misunderstood. People thought that the Beatles were singing
about "LSD". During Julian's parents' divorce, he became
the subject of Paul McCartney's "Hey Jude." Julian began
playing guitar and drums at age ten, adding piano as a
teenager; he appeared as a drummer on the track "Ya Ya" on
the John Lennon album Walls and Bridges.
Review about Julian Lennon A Great Singer-Song Writer Without A Doubt | Reviewer: Edwin
------ About the song Valotte performed by Julian Lennon
Julian Lennon wrote a beautiful song in "Valotte" and performed equally well. Every where I go I still here this song. It has stood the test of time.
Who knows what Julians reasons for not recording more are. Perhaps because of his relationship with his father, the great John Lennon, he is disillusioned with the entire game. Perhaps he just doesn't enjoy the music business. Anyway, he doesn't need to prove anything to anyone but himself. He has proven his talent with the few but important contributions he has made to popular music.
I loved John Lennon. But he wasn't fair to his son. I don't have the right to judge him. But this has to be a great and lingering pain for Julian. I want Julian to know that we love him and we love his music. If he ever decides to record again we will surely be ready to listen. He doesn't need the Beatles or his Father's legacy. He can stand on his own talent.
Best of luck to you Jude, wherever you are. And thanks for the beautiful song "Valotte"!
Such a beautiful song | Reviewer: Isabel
------ About the song Valotte performed by Julian Lennon
I've heard this song since I was a child. I never get bored of it. When I listen to it I just say, No matter if Julian is John's son, the song it's beautiful by itself and Julian is a great writer for composing it.

------ About the song Valotte performed by Julian Lennon
I could never find it until the internet came along, and I could look it up by googling the lyrics.
I like this song, and Too Late For Goodbyes, and also wonder why Julian hasn't recorded more. Well, at least we have these songs, part of my 80's childhood.
I just LOVE this song | Reviewer: Iva

So melancholic and such a special song ...
I just don't understand why Julian Lennon didn't keep singing. I'm sure he could have been even more successful than his father ...
What a Pity!!!!!!! | Reviewer: Javier Salgado
------ About the song Valotte performed by Julian Lennon
As the awesome George Harrison's song says, it's a really pity that he never recorded with Beatles survivors!!!! Now the can do it with Danny Harrison, but Julian is the Same John Singing, composing an playing! Fuck Yoko!!!!!!!

------ About the song Valotte performed by Julian Lennon
"The actual place (Valotte) is an old chateau in the middle of France and it was kind of a place in the middle of nowhere, no distractions, so it was a good place to work and the actual chateau was a beautiful place so it was very inspiring out there and it was the kind of dream house you might want to live in you know, so that's what started off the whole song." - statement made by Julian
wow | Reviewer: gary davenport
------ About the song Valotte performed by Julian Lennon
I was vacationing and this song came on in a restaurant. I thought wow, how have I been alive this long and missed this John Lennon song, especially since its so well written. I figured it must a been a Lennon solo post beatles song. Now that I found out its Julian, I would like to make the following statement. Although Julian's voice is similar to his father's by no fault of his own, the song is great not because of the vocal sound, but because of the superior writing. I cannot think of a song that is clearly superior to this in its genre.
