This is Jack Johnson's cover of the original song imagine by John Lennon I do not own this song nor do i have the copyright information for this song....this video is for the sole entertainment of the viewer.
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.
This what I keep trying to tell people who would assume that an artist would be displeased with a cover. It's not all about quality, it's about the respect and paying homage to an artist.
Our world will never come around, will never be more than lyrics in a song, lines in a poem, thoughts in a head. But why does that mean we should stop trying to create this idyllic paradise?
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 don't know if what this song speaks of will ever happen, but as long as there are people who believe in it I think that's all that matters. Utopia is not a place, it's a journey.
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.
OK, you guys just made my day with your comments!! (-: Rock on and keep growing up to be the cool people you are going to be, and enjoy this wonderful music along with us "oldies"!!
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.
Listening to this breaks my heart as I gaze upon all the pain this world goes through continuously. It’s all normal though, as usual we can never do enough for this place
I love the lyrics to this song. I've always believed in the message of the song, before I ever heard it, but I couldn't put it into words. That's what I love about music, if you can't say the word yourself you can always say it through a song.
Can't live without my possessions, my guitars, my bass, amps, my music collection which I hope I can start buying albums again, my guitar and bass effects, no one touches my stuff!!
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... miguel nales i love this song....
Brilliant!!! I'm a fan of the singing. When an artist sings freely, easily, and interrupts the silence slightly. As if not a man sings, and the waves of the ocean. Sorry for my english.
I think that Jack Johnson put on an amazing cover for an already good song, but just made it a lot better with his way of doing it. (he also has a great voice for this song)
When I listen to this song I get sad about the human race…In Africa people are dying cause of ebola, in the middle east, people are killing cause of the war. Beside me I see people dying cause of violence and hunger, and there’s nothing I can do. :(
What about all the good like the people fighting ebola and if u really want to do something go volunteer I know it doesn't seem like a lot but a little can help. Also we r living in the most peaceful time in history. Be thankful for that
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 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 You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope some day 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 You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope some day you'll join us And the world will be as one
Then the world will never change unfortunately. The people today should take a philosophy like the one presented in this song seriously, because John Lennon had a great philosophy.
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 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 You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope some day you'll join us And the world will be as one Imagine no possessions I wonder if you can No need for greed or…
Let people believe in what they need to believe in. If they believe in it as strongly as you do in your beliefs, isn't that a good thing? Beliefs help motivate and propel us through this very choppy sea of life, like a light house you know? As long as we ALL stick to this, we won't get in each others way so much y'know?
I know that but as my dad says without god we probably all be eating each other still to this day. And he is a proud original greek-cypriot. Who are one of the most spiritual people of all, going back in the days. And theyve had there hell on earth too. did you know that? So any new ages people who think they are all mighty, and rebel and think there all that please stop using gods name when you say oh my god....... nuff said

you know this is a cover?
Hope life is better now with less depression.
Hope you`re good :))
🙏
It's beautiful to tune out of crap and listen to happiness. ❤❤❤
❤
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
the two people who inspire me the most:
Jack Johnson and John lennon
He called it! The time is now. Pray for peace. Be the peace. Walk with purpose, imagining you will be the difference.
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.
For the very first time that my daughter listen to this version, she was just 17yrs young... I saw her years....
First time I kissed my ex this cover by Jack Johnson was playing along in some place near us... I will never forget that...
This what I keep trying to tell people who would assume that an artist would be displeased with a cover. It's not all about quality, it's about the respect and paying homage to an artist.
In a lot of ways, Jack is the John Lennon of our generation.
There can only be one Garrett in this youtube town
Facts.
if only everyone really lived by these words
Our world will never come around, will never be more than lyrics in a song, lines in a poem, thoughts in a head. But why does that mean we should stop trying to create this idyllic paradise?
jack johnson plays nice. i listen to his music at night when i can't fall asleep. really helps.
I feel you bruh
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!!!!!!!
Jack Johnson is probably the happiest guy on the planet, I adore him :)
A super SWEET version of my most favorite song!!!!!!IMAGINE!!!!!!
I don't know if what this song speaks of will ever happen, but as long as there are people who believe in it I think that's all that matters. Utopia is not a place, it's a journey.
It baffles me how there can be so much hate from people who claim to be John Lennon fans.
jack johnson eliminates the need for me to smoke weed. He is as chill as you can get!
If we settle down for anything less than perfect, the world will never change.
Very Nice song❤🎉
I'm a proud christian, also a proud Jack Johnson fan
*My good music taste brought me here.*
Saaaame.
so relatable
you have 5 years
Definitely the best cover of this song that I've heard so far. His voice fits it well somehow, and come on. Who doesn't like Jack Johnson?
very very nice. john lennon would be happy if he hears this in heaven
🥺🥺🥺 i miss john
the way he slowed it down was just beautiful..it gave me chills
I dont think very much that John Lennon would have wanted people even arguing about his lyrics or about what they mean at all.

I'm 15 and I listen to this everyday and I'll continue to do so. maybe when I'll become your age I'll think the same:)
vishwas hablani you'll have to travel back in time two years for that lol, I'm 13 (but I feel older tbh)
Omg hahaha your picture got me on that one I thought you were like 50 btw I'm 17 idk why I wrote 15 😝
LMAO THAT WAS A HARRY POTTER CHARACTER I'M DYING

From brazil. I love this song!!! 👍🏻🙏🏻🥰
2019 and I'm still listening to this song
2020 still goin strong
@@NWozz034 2021 from Brasil
I never get bored of these lyrics .
.....thats true....I also not bored even after repeating it many times......
Imagine if we were all citizens of the Earth and started helping each other. The Brotherhood of Men. It would be the greatest realization of Mankind.
Are you assuming my gender???
Men with a capital M includes all gender fyi
we are all family- even if lots are not aware of it.
Goes against all laws of humanity tho, fam. its human nature to hate and be spiteful and chance is it will never change
"That's so sexiest! The word 'Men' should be banned!!!!"
I love the lyrics to this song. I've always believed in the message of the song, before I ever heard it, but I couldn't put it into words. That's what I love about music, if you can't say the word yourself you can always say it through a song.
So special... Jack Johnson and his music are blessings!
If only people would take this to heart..
One of the simplest, yet most profound songs ever written. JJ does it all the justice it deserves. Resist, Replace, Peace.
We really need this song right now in the U.S.
It's only as we give up that we lose, if we keep fighting for what we love I don't think we could ever lose.
am i the only one who gets chills with this song ?
Very beautiful cover Jack, Lennon is smiling and proud of you. If you thought this was an original by Jack Johnson...then, shame on you!
Can't live without my possessions, my guitars, my bass, amps, my music collection which I hope I can start buying albums again, my guitar and bass effects, no one touches my stuff!!
super wykonanie
Love brought me here. Not the of a person, just love.

i love this song....
Brilliant!!! I'm a fan of the singing. When an artist sings freely, easily, and interrupts the silence slightly. As if not a man sings, and the waves of the ocean.
Sorry for my english.
Well said!
Muy relajante.
This is probably the second greatest version of this Song I will ever hear in my entire life.
beautiful.....
I love Jack Johnson! Hope more people in the world do too some day. He is awesome and deserves it!
life is great with jack johnson's music!
one of the greatest songs ever written , hard to do it justice
it is the most beautiful song in this world. the way jack sings it makes me stop anything I'm doing and just listen
He took the song to another level. deeper, more spiritual...
I think that Jack Johnson put on an amazing cover for an already good song, but just made it a lot better with his way of doing it. (he also has a great voice for this song)
I wouldn’t call it better (or worse) just different. I think it’s unique and good.
soft guitar playing with calm voice , its nice song ,. from lennon collection songs
THE SINGER OF THE CENTURY
Join us and the world will live as one
This level of greatness is too damn high
Jack Johnson and his music = divine.
When I listen to this song I get sad about the human race…In Africa people are dying cause of ebola, in the middle east, people are killing cause of the war. Beside me I see people dying cause of violence and hunger, and there’s nothing I can do. :(
Thanks for such a good thought Jessica.Everyone will be okay some day when we go to real peace instead of a fabricated one:)
What about all the good like the people fighting ebola and if u really want to do something go volunteer I know it doesn't seem like a lot but a little can help. Also we r living in the most peaceful time in history. Be thankful for that
john lennon wants us to dream.but dont fall really deep sleep.thats what is happening to the whole world.racism, capitalism, genocides everywhere.
To all the people having a cry, my opinion is that John would fucking LOVE this, so chill out.
The world brought me here...
TH-cam playlist brought me here, thanks ;)
this is the type of music that Chase listen, I’m in shook
I love Jack Johnson ! 👏
Jack Johnson sing JWL this is beautiful
...This is pure magic
And Mr. Lennon is thrilled.R.I.P. John and thank you Jack.
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
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
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day 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
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Loooveeee this song, just had to say it.
your cover is great, so peacfull
Thank you
what a beatiful beautiful beautiful cover. Heart :)
.12 into the song already thumbs up
Its a lost cause. A hopeless dream. Just forget it, world peace will NEVER become inevitable or accomplish-able.
Wow! Good voice and good sound! I like this.
Then the world will never change unfortunately. The people today should take a philosophy like the one presented in this song seriously, because John Lennon had a great philosophy.
its the best version of this son it goes directly in my heart
R.I.P. Cecilla Lynn Brown. This was her favorite song. Wish you could have stuck around to hear this one.
Love this song, period. Jack’s version made me stop in my tracks….love, appreciation, peace. Amen!
ALL HAIL....THE KING OF CHILL!!!!!...!
Makes me cry every time
We'll each start changing the world in our own corner - loving and helping each other, dreaming, and hoping our example is contagious..
I can't help it. I find this one better than the original, eventough I'm a huge fan of John Lennon. But I just love Jack Johnson.
only one jack johnson he definitely feels his music
I hear you. You said what is in my heart.
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
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
You may say I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one
Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or…
lennon would have loved to see fellow artists who stand for peace cover his songs. this is a beautiful version of the song.
i've never heared a better cover of Imagine. *sniff* GO JACK JOHNSON!
Very good song, I like it

What a tribute.
Love brought me here...beautiful cover ! Thank you for the video !
beautiful version of such a great song. makes me still have faith in humanity.
and soft spoken acoustic artists.
REally ..I'm a dreamer but I'm not the only one...I love You 😪
Wonderful song!💋
I know that but as my dad says without god we probably all be eating each other still to this day. And he is a proud original greek-cypriot.
