Ironic, that John's considerate enough to share a moment of his time, a few words, and an autograph, with a total stranger, only to promptly be shot in the back by that same person.
Yeah John Lennon dead he loved Yoko Ono but he messed around on her just like he did his first wife so you know he was no saint and you can't blame the woman for something that she couldn't stop him from screwing around and the first wife couldn't he could get nasty with women read his first wife's book on that crap he could be a real nasty person he had psychological problems to
Ann Darnell ......I strongly suggest you read more than one “account” of John, he was a complex man. I agree with @Andrew anyway, John’s private life had/has absolutely nothing to do with anyone else. He made music for us, left a wonderful musical legacy and that’s what I love/d about John. His personal affairs were *never* anybody else’s business and I (for one) am really tired of all the negativity shown a man we lost in such a cruel and pointless fashion almost 40 years ago.
I was satisfied with everything except for the doctor who said: "We knew who we were dealing with. We had a very important person in our midst and it was our job to attempt to resuscitate him." I love John as much as the next person, but I don't like the way the doctor worded it as if celebrities/musicians deserve to be saved more than if it was someone random on their way home.
Avinal .......I don’t for a moment believe that’s what the doctor was inferring, he was simply acknowledging John’s importance to the world. It’s a doctor’s job to do whatever is humanly possibly for *every* patient (regardless of status) you’re “putting words in the doctor’s mouth” with that statement. Doctor’s are only human after all and I imagine the doctor tending to John was as shocked as the rest of us with John’s murder. His wording is unfortunately being taken out of context.
Bullshit. Roosevelt would treat John and the scum Chapman exactly as their injuries warranted. If Chapman were dying, they'd make the same effort. Just because a Doctor speaks emotionally about a patient doesn't mean that patient got extra care. I'm a New Yorker. I know my hospitals.
In an alternate universe Paul the amature photographer incerpted Chapman before he shot John and became a hero.John went on to record 10 more beautiful albums and lives in alternate NY to this day.
In an alternative universe, it was a John Lennon look alike impersonator with a terminal disease, who loved him enough to get shot, and the real Lennon is alive and well. Didn't you hear the doc say "it didn't look like John Lennon?" So why the death hoax in this alternate universe? Why not? 🤫 Elvis & Michael Jackson are credited with fake deaths, by the way!
So what if Yoko Ono ran for cover when shots are being fired...normal people would you know also given her history of being in Japan she experienced a traumatic portion of her life in war torn Japan.
I would I would run for cover if I heard gunshots I don't blame her a normal person would it's a normal instinct somebody shooting and people going to sit here and say that what she supposed to stand there and be killed two where you guys are real a bunch of real weirdos that's all I can say if you think that she is a human being with feelings John could be an a******
The thing that gets me is, no one ever holds John responsible for anything, it's just Yoko. (Not talking about the shooting situation specifically, just in general) Everyone completely erases his part in things.
Evil POS..I was 10 at that time and remember my parents crying. I knew of the Beatles. It was so sad. I actually love Double Fantasy is one of my favs and I really think it's his best work.
Mark Trezise .......so don’t speak the bastard’s name, you’re only helping keep him in the limelight. I deliberately haven’t spoken the lunatic’s name since John’s death.
I just watched Yesterday and it was an alright film but when they showed John, I felt like crying. It's sad, I wished he grew old like in the film, doing what he loves with the people he loves.
It made me feel kinda bad, they basically said that if he wasn't in The Beatles he wouldn't have been shot and it made me wonder what Paul and Ringo would think when they saw it
It pisses me off how in documentary's like this that they don't mention May Pang at all. She was with John during that "lost weekend" and they loved it each other so to see that people try and pretend that their relationship was nothing, annoys me greatly.
I lived only half a block from St Lukes /Roosevelt and not far from John Lennon I had no idea that night what was going on How sad we lost an icon like the great John Lennon I so miss him like all his millions of fan's around the world RIP
If ur telling me I was not alive when Lennon died ur out of ur mind I'm not going to come one here and lie about something like this I was born in 57 so figure that out
She didn't end The Beatles. John said on a interview that The Beatles would never stay together because they were drifting away from the start. Plus John said he never liked the mayhem of being one of The Beatles, that's why he moved to New York.
I had just bought double fantasy , I was so happy that it was good , I loved John and wanted his music to still be good , all these years later and it still hurts , unbelievable
God Bless you Yoko!!! I remember that night like it was yesterday. I was with my late Mother watching Monday night Football and they interrupted the game to announce this. I went suddenly numb and couldn’t stop crying........my heart, prayers and love have always been with you and yours....Love you,Michele
No matter what is said about Yoko. Or even my personal opinion on her, she loved John. You can feel it . She never remarried . She never moved from their home .
She sold off all of Jones belongings after he died, never gave Julian anything of his fathers. John disowned his first son Julian and left him out of his will... Paul was more of a father to him than John. John didn’t deserve to die, but he was a hypocrite and Yoko only wanted his money (obvious by selling off his belongings) Yoko still makes money off johns name, she’s a terrible human being. You’re blinded by your biasis.
Kimberly J. Sullivan .......I don’t buy that at all, I’ve seen too many photos of John and Julian together at all stages of Julian’s life. On Pinterest alone, there are countless photos of them. It’s true John wasn’t around as much as he’d have liked to have been but for goodness sake, those young men were in the grip of “Beatlemania”, everything they did was scrutinised by the world, it was a crazy time and not exactly easy for *any* of them. Regardless, it’s a documented fact that John and Julian were seeing far more of each other and were planning a holiday together when John was killed. You’re only repeating things you’ve heard, none of us was there. Incidentally, it’s quite untrue to say John *ever* “disowned” Julian, total exaggeration of a fabrication.
Thank God Chapman has just been denied parole again. Although I personally wish he'd been released after the shooting - and left to the people on the street. We all know that justice would have prevailed. :(
Yoko so sorry my heart is broken for you!! The worse day in history for the world ..so sorry Yoko ,Sean,& Julian .my condolences my dear Yoko..sending my love to you...
I don't understand why people still to this day despise Yoko, John made his own decisions with his career, without her I doubt he would have become to the amazing man he is known for. Yoko is a beautiful hearted lady who had nothing but love to give, yet everyone was against her.
Interesting how the Doctor said that at first some colleagues didn't think it looked like John Lennon. His hair style was getting shorter and moving back towards the 50s pompadour by this time, which actually became an iconic style in the 80's.
When I was two I was startled by everyone singing along to this new song all you need is love . I was programmed since then In a good way. 52 years later. Love is still all you need.
Sheila Mchgee I must stay grounded because I have a vivid imagination , people have pointed out.So there is no end . it is an inverted pyramid of possibilities. We might get rid of the Apex in the curve but we won’t get rid of the fear. Sometimes it feels so random I could’ve been dead myself if it wasn’t for antibiotics given at the proper dosage at the time. Both as a boy and an adult. I Don’t want to feel invincible and desensitized or immune either.. Sometimes I feel like Nero playing his fiddle while Rome burns . I’m in the pool right now. Stay safe . I do believe there’s a big picture and a bigger power. Why do you feel now is different?
I don’t think it’s just gun laws though. Although back then I have heard it was easier to purchase a firearm and have open/concealed carry it in many different states. This is Murica after all. It took a long time to ban smoking indoors or near schools/hospitals and regulate gun ownership. It is also the beacon of light from mental health services (and I will accredit even abortion stopping unwanted children who would have been mistreated/abused if born) that has shaped a new generation. While we still have some massive issues with gun violence, I think there has been less psychopathic behavior in a violent or disastrous manner. Instead today you are more likely to find those same psychopathic behaviors on trying to love, defend, or interact/get close with celebrities or their favourite artist. I would say just look at the interview with the murderer of John Lennon and he tells the events like it was Yesterday. As well as keeping a calm demeanor while describing this self fulfilling prophecy. He says and I quote as I have probably been haunted hearing his side of this story but claims that John after signing his copy of Double Fantasy, asked “Is there anything I could do for you?” -which is reasoned as if John knew he was looking at the man that was going to kill him. If this is the true account of what happened before he died I have to say that in a sane world like the one we keep trying to steer towards often (while still retaining our human condition) I hope at least we by this age producing less of these murderous sociopathic types that actively prey upon and be extremely violent towards others.
He lived his life happy even in his finale day, he wanted to be in NY. And he died there knowing he loved his kids and wife Yoko. He died in NY where he wanted to be. He wouldn’t have wanted people to hate Mark, or anybody who had harmed him, he lived his life knowing he made a change of peace and love. John Lennon wouldn’t want u to hate NY or Americans, just to make sure that we don’t make the same mistake 2 times. Lennon was at peace.
I think they were tired they had been making music traveling all over the world doing concerts and I just think they were worn out and tired and it was just time to walk away maybe even start a fighting and arguing with each other Batiste friends the best thing to do would just let it go and they did they went the wrong way and they made ass-kicking music George Harrison my ass kicking music John Lennon made ass-kicking music Paul McCartney made good music to Ringo Starr actually went to other bands and did drumming and and you know become a drummer and other bands which was a good drummer
They were wanting to go in different directions. Paul wanted to tour, John wanted do his own thing, George wanted more of his songs on the albums. Ringo was getting into acting.
Yoko sang in a Japanese occidental scale true to her Japanese ancestry. You Are My Angel, found on Double Fantasy is sung in a scale in which we are more familiar with.
Yoko didn't split up The Beatles, The Beatles would have split even if he hadn't met Yoko. Time split The Beatles up. They grew up, they had families, their music was going in different directions. The group was getting too big, & the music that they did on their own was constrained by the pressures of the group. It was inevitable.
I agree it's ridiculous that they blame her for the breakup. It was like you said inevitable. How long do these boy bands last anyway. They eventually want to do their own music. I think Double Fantasy is one of his best work
Right on -- at first, (as a kid) I was like - 'huh?', but then it was: He's John Lennon, there has to be a good reason. I read a little of her writing; that made me respect - not like or dislike - her. It was so obvious that she meant the world to him, and vice versa. We never owned him. & isn't that the point?
i will never say the mans name who took johns life...i will never read anything about him or what he has to say....i would not give him one second of my time......
John said don't forget to get ur book...did you get ur album signed?? Paul said he'll get it tomorrow..ill get my book before I leave..why would john say that?? Surely John would of known if he signed his album..or not...am I reading that wrong?? And for Paul to have seen Lennon earlier, just the way it sounds he told Paul I'll sign urbook this afternoon,..so why did Paul not stay with John?? How did he talk to him if he did,? If he had access to John why did he have to go back outside and wait?? I'm confused about That part.... Know what I mean?
no yoko asked may pang to look after him...may and john had a relationship for eighteen months....she asked may to ne his girfriend....yoko controlled that because she knew she would have him back...and may and john carried on seeing each other to...may wrote a book about it...fascinating
This terrible tradgedy still moves me to tears, for such a peaceful and happy John at this stage in his life to be stalked by that evil psychopath amd murdered so violently is beyond beleivable to many of those who knew and loved John. Sadly, Dear Yoko was there when it happend I cannot imagine how she fel or coped with such a loss of her soulmate and friend and father to Sean his name sake (Sean is the irish name for John). and Julian. John and his family deserved to live in peace and happiness more than anyone.. We have missed out on the life of John and Yoko in their lives and the music that John would have given to the world. John Lennon will go down in our history books along with Paul, George and Ringo as the most famous band ever in the world. Lennon and MaCartney should be taught in schools that they were the most prolific song writers and composers of the modern times. Unsurpassed by any other group. Fame didn't matter to John especially at this time in his life. Rest in Peace John you are still loved adored and missed by millions of people around the world. My heart has a missing piece that is with you. From me to You. ALL WE NEED IS LOVE!.
“I told myself: 'I am surrounded by unknown things.' I imagined man without ears, suspecting the existence of sound as we suspect so many hidden mysteries, man noting acoustic phenomena whose nature and provenance he cannot determine. And I grew afraid of everything around me - afraid of the air, afraid of the night. From the moment we can know almost nothing, and from the moment that everything is limitless, what remains? Does emptiness actually not exist? What does exist in this apparent emptiness?” ― Guy de Maupassant
December 8, 1980 by Mark R. Elsis "I am going into an unknown future, but I'm still all here, and still while there's life, there's hope." John Lennon, December 8, 1980 John Lennon was the greatest singer-songwriter and the most influential political artist of the twentieth century. He was assassinated on Monday, December 8, 1980, walking into the Dakota, his home on the upper West side of Manhattan, New York City. In mid-November of 1980, I told my closest friends, John Lennon was about to be assassinated. I told them the powers that be were going to blame it on a lone crazy deranged fan, and that this person would never have a trial. I don't know how I knew all of this would come to be, except to say that besides my parents, John Lennon, someone whom I had never met, was the most significant person in my life. Perhaps because of my lifelong adoration, I was tapped into a precognitive form of what Dr. Rupert Sheldrake postulated in his theory, Morphic Resonance. I was driving my taxi in Manhattan on that beautifully warm Monday evening of December 8, 1980. At around 10 pm, I was traveling without any passengers, when I passed by the Dakota. About an hour later, I was still driving my taxi while listening, as always, to Vin Scelsa on WNEW-FM 102.7, when he suddenly announced John Lennon had been shot. A short time later, while trying to hold back tears, he announced the death of John Lennon. John Lennon Assassination Announced By Vin Scelsa On WNEW-FM December 8, 1980 (7:38) www.bitchute.com/video/pPJKwDcY12Tx When Vin Scelsa broke this horrible news of John Lennon's death, I was with a woman passenger in my taxi. I was on East End Avenue, the same street where I was born, in Doctor's Hospital. As soon as my passenger heard the news, she immediately broke out crying. Soon there were tears in my eyes and rolling down my checks. I composed myself, turned my off duty light on, and finished driving my passenger to her home in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn (one block from where my paternal Grandmother lived). I dropped her off, waited until she was inside her home safely, and then headed straight to the Dakota. It was about 11:45 pm when I arrived, and already there was a large group of people gathered. I double-parked my Peugeot 504 taxi just about twenty feet West of the archway, in front of the Dakota. I opened the sunroof of my taxi and placed a portable speaker on the roof so people could hear WNEW-FM live. Soon hundreds of people had gathered outside of the Dakota. Throughout that solemn night, thousands of fans arrived, mourned, and left. I know about these thousands of people coming to pay their respects and grieve the tragic loss of John in the middle of the night because I stayed in front of the Dakota for the next nine hours. It was heartbreakingly sad for me to witness. At any one time during the night, there were dozens of grown men and women openly weeping like babies. These nine hours were the catalyst that transformed my life. I swore on John's blood that I would do everything I possibly could to enlighten humanity and make our world better for future generations. And every day for the last forty years, I have been doing just that. Strawberry Fields: Keeping The Spirit Of John Lennon Alive (Film) (1:22:08) Producer | Writer | Director: Mark R. Elsis Featuring: Crying For John Lennon, by Hargo, Produced by Phil Spector and Graham Ward Released Online: April 1, 2020 www.bitchute.com/video/4OFVttHeM8PD
Imagine what John would be doing today for music and movies. He was a great man a man who wanted peace in the world. He had amazing dreams and thoughts for the world. You know the way he was doing his life I could picture him being president today. He would of done amazing things for the country. I truly hope that when he passed away that his soul was blessed by God right away. John did not deserve to die exspelly like that... May he always rest in peace..
whoever is hating on yoko, keep this in mind. John Lennon lover yoko very much, i dont think youre doing Lennon justice by saying these hurtful things.
PLEASE LOOK AT 5 22 UNDER THE CENTRAL PARK WEST SIGN. APPEARS TO BE THE LEFT SIDE OF JOHN LENNON WEARING GLASSES. THIS REALLY FREAKED ME OUT TODAY. IT'S CLEARER ON THE FULL VERSION.
0:42 his albums weren't selling?? Huum didn't John have enough net worth?? I thought I read he was worth over 150+ million dollars?? Which ppl say today be worth over 600 mill??? They paid for the finances of double fantasy cause it was pennies to him....what I wouldn't give to have played on his album... I wonder what type of accident Alain got into? NYC so busy to me u wouldn't think u would get into a major accident.. in car packed, busy traffic, ppl walking... busy place
I wish the limo went in the driveway instead of obeying John's orders to just stop at the front of the building to drop him off. If the driver went in the drive way, that punk wouldn't get a good hit at John.
No comments address the fact that John Lennon & Yoko Ono hosted the most prominent, divine personality of this age, (and future ages), with his dedicated followers at their Tittenhurst place. So I will write that part of history. Even a fraction of a second of this transcendental association is priceless. It's the drugs and drug culture that infuriate my soul to no end. 💙🕯️🙏🏻 🕯️💙
I have ALWAYS loved Yoko! I thought that they were the exception to the rule when it came to unconditional love. Though John cheated on her, he knew what he did! He came back and she took him back with arms wide open. If only we could all learn from the love that they both had. Love for peace, for others and for EACH other! I love you both,Yoko and John.
@@paulmcnamara4774 Um that's not the point, the point is they wouldn't of given the same amount of effort if it wasn't him, it was fruitless but the "Ok we need to try anything we can to get them breathing" shouldn't just be reserved for "people that are worshipped by millions l"
I am trying to say is everyone is important so what if he was famous and popular worldwide it doesn't mean he deserved to be shoot 5 times in the back and die in a horrible way your comment just plain nasty.
It's strange watching at 11:15 because i've stood at the exact spot he is standing. It was a very strange feeling standing on the spot where John Lennon died.
John deserved to grow old and live a happy life with his family and bandmates.
indeed
Absofuckinlutely
Like every other good person
Amen! God Bless.
I Miss John Lennon, 😢.
May He Rest in Peace.
The sad thing is that John was just starting to rebuild a relationship with Julian.
John finally was getting his life back
I Know. May He Rest in Peace. God Bless.
Oh no!
Agreed
Thanks to May Pang
Ironic, that John's considerate enough to share a moment of his time, a few words, and an autograph, with a total stranger, only to promptly be shot in the back by that same person.
John loved yoko. Yoko loved John.
Nobody's business. Enjoy the music.
Yeah John Lennon dead he loved Yoko Ono but he messed around on her just like he did his first wife so you know he was no saint and you can't blame the woman for something that she couldn't stop him from screwing around and the first wife couldn't he could get nasty with women read his first wife's book on that crap he could be a real nasty person he had psychological problems to

Had John decided to go to the restaurant (and maybe called to check on Sean) he might still be here. Poor Yoko :(
I don't think so, because Chapman was determined to do that thing!
His assassination was already in motion.
...and even after making the decision to see Sean, he still never got to kiss Sean goodnight. So sad.😔

His hair style was getting shorter and moving back towards the 50s pompadour by this time, which actually became an iconic style in the 80's.
Not nice how they say it was their job to resuscitate him after realising he was famous. Hope they put a lot of effort in for everybody else too.
Shouldn't every person be very important person to emergency personell?
When I was two I was startled by everyone singing along to this new song all you need is love . I was programmed since then In a good way. 52 years later. Love is still all you need.
Sheila Mchgee It was like an anthem other songs that did that were; joy to the world and black and white ( Child is white)
Sheila Mchgee So is your wisdom
Sheila Mchgee I must stay grounded because I have a vivid imagination , people have pointed out.So there is no end . it is an inverted pyramid of possibilities. We might get rid of the Apex in the curve but we won’t get rid of the fear. Sometimes it feels so random I could’ve been dead myself if it wasn’t for antibiotics given at the proper dosage at the time. Both as a boy and an adult. I Don’t want to feel invincible and desensitized or immune either.. Sometimes I feel like Nero playing his fiddle while Rome burns . I’m in the pool right now. Stay safe . I do believe there’s a big picture and a bigger power. Why do you feel now is different?
Sheila Mchgee ty🙏🏼 Oh Sheila.
Damn the US with it's stupid gun laws.if John had stayed in England he would be alive today!!!
Amen! God Bless.
Keep in mind, this was in 1980 when gun laws weren't as strict.
I don’t think it’s just gun laws though. Although back then I have heard it was easier to purchase a firearm and have open/concealed carry it in many different states. This is Murica after all. It took a long time to ban smoking indoors or near schools/hospitals and regulate gun ownership. It is also the beacon of light from mental health services (and I will accredit even abortion stopping unwanted children who would have been mistreated/abused if born) that has shaped a new generation. While we still have some massive issues with gun violence, I think there has been less psychopathic behavior in a violent or disastrous manner. Instead today you are more likely to find those same psychopathic behaviors on trying to love, defend, or interact/get close with celebrities or their favourite artist.
I would say just look at the interview with the murderer of John Lennon and he tells the events like it was Yesterday. As well as keeping a calm demeanor while describing this self fulfilling prophecy. He says and I quote as I have probably been haunted hearing his side of this story but claims that John after signing his copy of Double Fantasy, asked “Is there anything I could do for you?” -which is reasoned as if John knew he was looking at the man that was going to kill him. If this is the true account of what happened before he died I have to say that in a sane world like the one we keep trying to steer towards often (while still retaining our human condition) I hope at least we by this age producing less of these murderous sociopathic types that actively prey upon and be extremely violent towards others.
He lived his life happy even in his finale day, he wanted to be in NY. And he died there knowing he loved his kids and wife Yoko. He died in NY where he wanted to be. He wouldn’t have wanted people to hate Mark, or anybody who had harmed him, he lived his life knowing he made a change of peace and love. John Lennon wouldn’t want u to hate NY or Americans, just to make sure that we don’t make the same mistake 2 times. Lennon was at peace.
but what a drag England is compared to NY
This "lost weekend" with May Pang was something that is forgotten that he reconnected with Julian & Paul.
I Know. May Pang, Was Doing A Really Good Job In Reuniting John With Julian. I Thought That Was Really Sweet. God Bless.
My biggest hero......gone. It's just not right!
" we know it was an important person and it was our job to resuscitate him" um thats rather disturbing
9:35 Goosebumps! And I think it was played with his old Beatles guitar, the white one.
No. It's painful for anyone who lived through this.
You know what’s coming you know they’re gonna say Lennon died but when they do it suddenly becomes a reality that is just so unbelievably sad
10:12 she must have replayed that scene in her mind over and over.
So 😢. God Bless.
LMAO he's dancing in he beginning made me laugh like a fool xD gotta love playful goofy John
And we all knew how close u 2 were. If someone knew goofy john it would be u!
I Know. He Dances Alot In His Videos. I Miss Him,😢.
Rest In Peace, Dear 👼. God Bless.
Hot girl alert.
The Beatles brought the breakup on themselves.
Yes they did they got boredom of each other
I think they were tired they had been making music traveling all over the world doing concerts and I just think they were worn out and tired and it was just time to walk away maybe even start a fighting and arguing with each other Batiste friends the best thing to do would just let it go and they did they went the wrong way and they made ass-kicking music George Harrison my ass kicking music John Lennon made ass-kicking music Paul McCartney made good music to Ringo Starr actually went to other bands and did drumming and and you know become a drummer and other bands which was a good drummer
Completely agree 👏
They were wanting to go in different directions. Paul wanted to tour, John wanted do his own thing, George wanted more of his songs on the albums. Ringo was getting into acting.
Yoko is/was a joke of a vocalist. She would never have been heard in mainstream if not for Lennon.
Yoko sang in a Japanese occidental scale true to her Japanese ancestry. You Are My Angel, found on Double Fantasy is sung in a scale in which we are more familiar with.
Yoko didn't split up The Beatles, The Beatles would have split even if he hadn't met Yoko. Time split The Beatles up. They grew up, they had families, their music was going in different directions. The group was getting too big, & the music that they did on their own was constrained by the pressures of the group. It was inevitable.
I agree it's ridiculous that they blame her for the breakup. It was like you said inevitable. How long do these boy bands last anyway. They eventually want to do their own music. I think Double Fantasy is one of his best work
does anyone else feel there heart beating when the dramatic music comes on 5:53?
We miss you John. Thanks for everything x
rip john
Hurts my heart. All we are saying is Give Peace a chance!
Right on -- at first, (as a kid) I was like - 'huh?', but then it was: He's John Lennon, there has to be a good reason. I read a little of her writing; that made me respect - not like or dislike - her. It was so obvious that she meant the world to him, and vice versa. We never owned him. & isn't that the point?
Yoko's "singing" is absolutely a crime and assault against the senses.
I Think Paul Goresh Was A
Nice Person. Rest In Peace, Dear 👼. God Bless.
RIP John we love you!
"This doesn't look like John Lennon, it can't be"
John Lemon
Its hard to watch this becase its hurts so much, becase i miss John so much....
Same. 😢. God Bless.
I can’t finish watching this . We know what happened . It’s still to fresh in my memory
i will never say the mans name who took johns life...i will never read anything about him or what he has to say....i would not give him one second of my time......
So why are you watching this?
Just makes me feel sick to my stomach
No one should die from the hands of another. So wrong. R.I.P. John 😢😔 💝 things like this should never happened.
I feel for Yoko and all the family 💔
amazingly Chapman gets to live
Beautiful purity. we should all be so fortunate
John said don't forget to get ur book...did you get ur album signed?? Paul said he'll get it tomorrow..ill get my book before I leave..why would john say that?? Surely John would of known if he signed his album..or not...am I reading that wrong?? And for Paul to have seen Lennon earlier, just the way it sounds he told Paul I'll sign urbook this afternoon,..so why did Paul not stay with John?? How did he talk to him if he did,? If he had access to John why did he have to go back outside and wait?? I'm confused about That part.... Know what I mean?
so did cynthia and julian....
4:07 really upsets me.
personally, I liked his first wife
no yoko asked may pang to look after him...may and john had a relationship for eighteen months....she asked may to ne his girfriend....yoko controlled that because she knew she would have him back...and may and john carried on seeing each other to...may wrote a book about it...fascinating
This terrible tradgedy still moves me to tears, for such a peaceful and happy John at this stage in his life to be stalked by that evil psychopath amd murdered so violently is beyond beleivable to many of those who knew and loved John. Sadly, Dear Yoko was there when it happend I cannot imagine how she fel or coped with such a loss of her soulmate and friend and father to Sean his name sake (Sean is the irish name for John). and Julian. John and his family deserved to live in peace and happiness more than anyone.. We have missed out on the life of John and Yoko in their lives and the music that John would have given to the world. John Lennon will go down in our history books along with Paul, George and Ringo as the most famous band ever in the world. Lennon and MaCartney should be taught in schools that they were the most prolific song writers and composers of the modern times. Unsurpassed by any other group. Fame didn't matter to John especially at this time in his life. Rest in Peace John you are still loved adored and missed by millions of people around the world. My heart has a missing piece that is with you. From me to You. ALL WE NEED IS LOVE!.
“I told myself: 'I am surrounded by unknown things.' I imagined man without ears, suspecting the existence of sound as we suspect so many hidden mysteries, man noting acoustic phenomena whose nature and
provenance he cannot determine. And I grew afraid of everything around me - afraid of the air, afraid of the night. From the moment we can know almost nothing, and from the moment that everything is limitless, what
remains? Does emptiness actually not exist? What does exist in this
apparent emptiness?”
― Guy de Maupassant
December 8, 1980
by Mark R. Elsis
"I am going into an unknown future, but I'm still all here,
and still while there's life, there's hope."
John Lennon, December 8, 1980
John Lennon was the greatest singer-songwriter and the most influential political artist of the twentieth century. He was assassinated on Monday, December 8, 1980, walking into the Dakota, his home on the upper West side of Manhattan, New York City.
In mid-November of 1980, I told my closest friends, John Lennon was about to be assassinated. I told them the powers that be were going to blame it on a lone crazy deranged fan, and that this person would never have a trial. I don't know how I knew all of this would come to be, except to say that besides my parents, John Lennon, someone whom I had never met, was the most significant person in my life. Perhaps because of my lifelong adoration, I was tapped into a precognitive form of what Dr. Rupert Sheldrake postulated in his theory, Morphic Resonance.
I was driving my taxi in Manhattan on that beautifully warm Monday evening of December 8, 1980. At around 10 pm, I was traveling without any passengers, when I passed by the Dakota.
About an hour later, I was still driving my taxi while listening, as always, to Vin Scelsa on WNEW-FM 102.7, when he suddenly announced John Lennon had been shot. A short time later, while trying to hold back tears, he announced the death of John Lennon.
John Lennon Assassination Announced By Vin Scelsa On WNEW-FM December 8, 1980 (7:38)
www.bitchute.com/video/pPJKwDcY12Tx
When Vin Scelsa broke this horrible news of John Lennon's death, I was with a woman passenger in my taxi. I was on East End Avenue, the same street where I was born, in Doctor's Hospital. As soon as my passenger heard the news, she immediately broke out crying. Soon there were tears in my eyes and rolling down my checks.
I composed myself, turned my off duty light on, and finished driving my passenger to her home in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn (one block from where my paternal Grandmother lived). I dropped her off, waited until she was inside her home safely, and then headed straight to the Dakota.
It was about 11:45 pm when I arrived, and already there was a large group of people gathered. I double-parked my Peugeot 504 taxi just about twenty feet West of the archway, in front of the Dakota.
I opened the sunroof of my taxi and placed a portable speaker on the roof so people could hear WNEW-FM live. Soon hundreds of people had gathered outside of the Dakota. Throughout that solemn night, thousands of fans arrived, mourned, and left.
I know about these thousands of people coming to pay their respects and grieve the tragic loss of John in the middle of the night because I stayed in front of the Dakota for the next nine hours.
It was heartbreakingly sad for me to witness. At any one time during the night, there were dozens of grown men and women openly weeping like babies.
These nine hours were the catalyst that transformed my life. I swore on John's blood that I would do everything I possibly could to enlighten humanity and make our world better for future generations.
And every day for the last forty years, I have been doing just that.

The events of that night are incredible and sad!
Imagine what John would be doing today for music and movies. He was a great man a man who wanted peace in the world. He had amazing dreams and thoughts for the world. You know the way he was doing his life I could picture him being president today. He would of done amazing things for the country. I truly hope that when he passed away that his soul was blessed by God right away. John did not deserve to die exspelly like that... May he always rest in peace..
Be Kind. She didn't want his music to die nor him to die. Why must you hate?
whoever is hating on yoko, keep this in mind. John Lennon lover yoko very much, i dont think youre doing Lennon justice by saying these hurtful things.
I wish people (fans) would cease using John Lennon's killer by name. Let's delete if from our words.
Good Point. God Bless.
G Town Dave .......I’ve *never* spoken it and have consciously tried to forget it.
@@lindadote But he probably thinks he is super known and important for what he did
just for the record you should read julians take on all this.....i know john loved her but there is another side to this story...
That thing about Mc Cartney was great to listen to.
PLEASE LOOK AT 5 22
UNDER THE CENTRAL PARK WEST SIGN.
APPEARS TO BE THE LEFT SIDE
OF JOHN LENNON WEARING GLASSES.
THIS REALLY FREAKED ME OUT TODAY.
IT'S CLEARER ON THE FULL VERSION.
Notice how many times all the interview subjects mention Jose????
Hmmmmmm...........
Rubber soul; that beatles magical album that led to many more after
I love Yoko........!!!.....and so did John
Ever notice why the most talented brightest stars go too soon!
love how the weird stalker (in today's terms) guy is cast as SO normal!!!!
0:42 his albums weren't selling?? Huum didn't John have enough net worth?? I thought I read he was worth over 150+ million dollars?? Which ppl say today be worth over 600 mill??? They paid for the finances of double fantasy cause it was pennies to him....what I wouldn't give to have played on his album...
I wonder what type of accident Alain got into? NYC so busy to me u wouldn't think u would get into a major accident.. in car packed, busy traffic, ppl walking... busy place
I wonder what injuries did that motorbike guy get.,.
Ikr
I wish the limo went in the driveway instead of obeying John's orders to just stop at the front of the building to drop him off. If the driver went in the drive way, that punk wouldn't get a good hit at John.
yoko.....if you could have just welcomed julian into your lives people would not have judged....to this day you have never done that.
To call the world to peace and love.....and never have peace and love in your heart. That is precisely what Yoko represents.
No comments address the fact that John Lennon & Yoko Ono hosted the most prominent, divine personality of this age, (and future ages), with his dedicated followers at their Tittenhurst place. So I will write that part of history. Even a fraction of a second of this transcendental association is priceless.
It's the drugs and drug culture that infuriate my soul to no end. 💙🕯️🙏🏻 🕯️💙
Glad they loved each other.
John♥️Yoko

YES
I have ALWAYS loved Yoko! I thought that they were the exception to the rule when it came to unconditional love. Though John cheated on her, he knew what he did! He came back and she took him back with arms wide open. If only we could all learn from the love that they both had. Love for peace, for others and for EACH other! I love you both,Yoko and John.
“Eh who gives a shit this guys dead meat, it’s-“
*ITS JOHN LENON!!!*
“OH SHIT GET THIS GUY BREATHING GO GO GO”
Plenty he was worshipped by millions you troll
@@paulmcnamara4774 Um that's not the point, the point is they wouldn't of given the same amount of effort if it wasn't him, it was fruitless but the "Ok we need to try anything we can to get them breathing" shouldn't just be reserved for "people that are worshipped by millions l"
I am trying to say is everyone is important so what if he was famous and popular worldwide it doesn't mean he deserved to be shoot 5 times in the back and die in a horrible way your comment just plain nasty.
@wildsmiley Before the restaurant, they would go to the Dakota, and the scene would be the same
I've always wondered, how was John's relationship to Julian?
At 2:46 sec is Yoko on stage blindfolded and knitting? O_o had to rewind on that one...
It's strange watching at 11:15 because i've stood at the exact spot he is standing. It was a very strange feeling standing on the spot where John Lennon died.
Why am I getting Goose Bumps throughout the last part of this video :( :(
John referring to Yoko as mother is creepy.
You Can Tell Yoko Wants To Cry.You Can Tell It In Her Eyes.Yoko Is One Strong Widow Women
He wanted to se Sean :(
