John Lennon Lyrics

    ------ About the song Give Peace A Chance performed by John Lennon

Who is Bryan Abbott and why do I care? Visitors, Protestors, hippies, Deadheads, Peaceful 'young people', men and women of all ages, be COOL. Please! Do NOT let what happened in Seattle happen again!

    ------ About the song Watching The Wheels performed by John Lennon

"Right there, I feel exactly the same way. I'm all about changing the world for the better for humanity, not 'profits for corporations'. I see solutions and people laugh at me, mock my opinions.. but I know things ARE changing. Occupy Washington, Occupy Together, etc. Collective consciousness. It's here, and even when everyone makes fun of me, I put up with it.... it's all changing :)

Peace + Love"

    ------ About the song Serve Yourself performed by John Lennon

They both make a great point. I think both songs make one another stronger.
What I take away from these two songs is that you have to know that you are number one, and, in that case, everyone is number one, so you better help your fellow number ones.
The world is a top-podium spacious enough for us all!

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

Lennon's creative genus imagine leaves anyone who hears it a better person. He brought the art of music to a whole new level which just can't be explained with conceptual words. Listen to this song every day and someday the world really will live as one.

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

John wrote and sang about the world, while Paul wrote and sang about individuals in that world. Paul's best five songs are way better than John's best five. At his worst, Paul could be commercial and amazingly corny. At his worst, John could be ridiculous and blasphemous. Anyway, I like Paul more.

    ------ About the song Watching The Wheels performed by John Lennon

I believe "watching the wheels" refers to sean, I recently used this term in watching my girl observing a play. Just watching the wheels of her mind take it all in. Beautiful song. So poignant.

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

Personally I love both artists work. Paul certainly had an easy listening quality to all his work, but often lacked a message to his music [some of his music had plenty of message, but not most]. It was always simple and enjoyable. johns music was often edgy and abstract and hard to listen to. However, john often had so much to say lyrically in his music. I think approxamately 25% of johns music was some of the very greatest music ever written... However about 25% of johns music was abrasive, harsh, and generally awful. How do you choose between such greatness. They were both utterly magnificent musically, and probably my favorite all time band. Incidentally, they wrote their music separately and alone... and then upon completion would show the other what they had done and allowed an openness to change things based on the others suggestion towards bettering the stuff. i.e. Paul wrote "I've Got To Admit It's Getting Better; It's Getting Better All The Time"... And John upon seeing this piece of music contributed the add in "IT CAN'T GET NO WORSE". This is a significant addition to the song, but don't worry... Paul did the same thing for john. To me the BEATLES and the song-writing team of LENNON/McCARTNEY is among the greatest of all time. Maybe they did have a bit of animosity towards each other which showed up sometimes in their solo work, but under animosity you've got to know that they loved, respected, and appreciated each other and how well their Beatles collaborations complemented each other. In fact, many years latter and after Johns untimely death, Paul wrote a piece of music to commemorated his friendship and love for Lennon... It's called "HERE TODAY". The song totally expresses Pauls LOVE for John and his SADNESS over Johns being gone. No Lie... Look it up and listen to the lyrics!

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

When he says I don't believe in Beatles, he's referring to the way people viewed the Beatles in the sixties. To many they were 'gods'. He's saying he doesn't believe in Beatles as a group, as higher power. Not that he doesn't believe in Paul, Ringo and George(at the time). He treated Paul like a brother, but as many family relationships it got complicated as he got older. Yoko and Linda often said that they both wanted to speak, but obviously had way too much pride. Also, Yoko could not have split up the band if she tried. Things were falling apart even before she came in the studio. John wanted to write different songs than Paul. Just take a look at the White Album Glass Onion vs Back In The U.S.S.R.. George was getting a bit resentful. Even Ringo was tired of the band, he quit during the recording of the White Album leaving Paul to play drums on various tracks. Also, Paul sometimes restricted John from saying what was on his mind because he felt it was too forward and would ruin the band's image and get bad press. This was often shown when they were asked about politics. They were just four brothers who found it time to move out. But all in all, God is a good song and even if you believe in at least one thing he sings of, at least the ending is nice. Their dream is over, but their legend lives on.

    ------ About the song Jealous Guy performed by John Lennon

Well i'm a big fan of beatles even when i'm sad or lonely their songs give me ways to be happy. My dream is to see them live infront of me. but their three members are living in heaven now. so i can't reach them. I pray for their soul to rest in peace..
