    As a person who's going through depression and only knows of music as there only get away Jack Johnson sure is the best therapy you can really get. Out of millions of people I would like to be one of few to say ill never harm myself or anyone but only live to try to make people's lives better as well

    Imagine there's no heaven
    It's easy if you try
    No hell below us
    Above us only sky
    Imagine all the people
    Living for today (ah ah ah)
    Imagine there's no countries
    It isn't hard to do
    Nothing to kill or die for
    And no religion, too
    Imagine all the people
    Living life in peace
    You may say that I'm a dreamer
    But I'm not the only one
    I hope someday you'll join us
    And the world will be as one
    Imagine no possessions
    I wonder if you can
    No need for greed or hunger
    A brotherhood of man
    Imagine all the people
    Sharing all the world
    You may say that I'm a dreamer
    But I'm not the only one
    I hope someday you'll join us
    And the world will live as one

    WHO on EARTH cares if the man smokes weed or not?! What in the world does that have to do with anything!? He is amazingly talented and adds beauty to our lives. THAT matters. :) God Bless Jack Johnson. Now that Steven Jobs is gone, he is THE man.

    Imagine your childhood. I Imagine mine. Great? no. Fun? yes. Would I do it over again even with the drunk ass father I had? In a second. I just imagine my childhood when I hear this song and have for thirty year because it feels good. Dream, daze and feel what is inside of you then reach deeper. When asked if you have gone all the way you look, laugh and run away. There is never another time you can do this with whats in your heart at that moment, never another time. Never! Peace!!!!!!!

    I dont think very much that John Lennon would have wanted people even arguing about his lyrics or about what they mean at all. He would just have wanted us all to simply listen to the beautifulll song and for us all individually to 'imagine' this world as he describes it. the song isnt nessasarily about religeon or anything but just listen to the song and think to your self about the message he might be trying to get out to all of us.

    I've loved Jack Johnson and John Lennon ever since I was little and this song is really important and relevant with the world's current "situation" (for lack of a better word). There's a waterfall of tears coming from my eyes right now. I only just found this cover, and I'm so glad.

    I asked my daughter Louise to give me this CD for a present one Christmas or birthday. While I was working for the Arun neighborhood network in LittleHampton my manager in the fundraising department was (George?) Foreman who had been in charity work for many years, starting off in a charity that helped Romanian orphans etc after the fall of the Ceausescus. He was a big wheel in medecins sans frontieres when I knew him and gave an interview on tv about the atrocities there.

    with every passing season there are new challenges the consequence
    of life is inconsequential it is like a flowing stream and its reflective surface all there is the knowing
    and the understanding of a matter which reside outside of the nature of its being
    but unlike anyone of our creators other living being instead of reflecting, we choose to deflect
    our true nature as human being in hopes of better appreciation for the universal flow...
