I remember hearing this and thinking it was John. I was totally blown away when saw the video and realised it was Julian. He's an amazing artist. He proved that John's genes are deeply embedded within him and he is not just the son of John Lennon, he is Julian Lennon, his talent is crystal clear to all who have eyes to see or ears to hear.
Sure Yoko hates it but this is John Lennon in vocals...and in quality of composition. Julian took a sad song and made it better. He became a great man on his own.
JULIAN LENNON IS A CLASS ACT... Stood by his mother's side very close to his mother respectful and remains humble not easy to be a Beatles son can you imagine he sounds a lot like his father and he looks like a combination of both parents he is the complete package body-wise look wise personality-wise that impression my gosh loved him since I was 14 years of age what a man God bless
I love this song, both the tune and the unique lyrics. It reminds me of the mid 1980s and my bittersweet adolescent years. Julian is very talented and a wonderful person.
GREETINGS FROM ARKANDAS USA I WAS 14 TEEN IN 1980 I HAD WRITTEN JULIAN A LETTER LOVE LETTER AND A CONDOLENCE LETTER AS WELL...MY FAMILY AND I WERE LIVING IN QWEENS NYC AT THE TIME WHAT A GREAT CLASSIC SONG HE WAS ANSD STILL IS A VERY COOL AND GOOD-LOOKING DUDE BOTH INSIDE AND OUT...WERE IT MATTERS THE PERSONS MORALS AND KINDESS I WILL ALWAYS LOVE HIS MUSIC AND HIM
Julian is the best in every sense!!My heart is for him!! I love the man;the artist,the poet,the songwriter,the philantropist...Everything if him..Thank you Julian for existing in my heart and in my life
Dulzura especial. Eres único . No es problema para nadie más q para un tonto ,tener un padre y encima querido y genial. Brillas porque tienes luz para transmitir y cantar bien Te amamos Julián💓
I felled for Julian, in the moment I was listening to his "help yourself" album, back in my teenage years... He has those beautiful voice + lyrics. And his masculine but special aura... just extraordinary! ❤
I always thought this was John, so amazed how much he sounds like his Dad. When he finally did Imagine, it was so close to his father, it gave me chills.
Julian aquí se ve magestuoso💂no me importa que lo comparen con su padre es talentoso, único y tiene su propio talento. "Julian lennon forever" love you😙❤
This song/performance is one of the things that I recall upon my move from the East Coast for all of my life in New England and New York I’m starting a job in Salt Lake City Utah I felt very strange, among the typography and people of the far western United States were new to me. This song reminds me that it was playing all the time every time I was listening to a radio. Julian’s song made me feel more at home than I would’ve been out in the west of Utah in Salt Lake City in a new job.
J' avais 14 ans quand j' ai écouté cette chanson, je me suis promise que si un jour j avais un garçon il s appellerai Julian... J' ai 55 ans, mon Julian a 17 ans ... J adore Julian Lennon il a une voix incroyable, sensiblement la même que son père, c est pour moi un grand artiste ... Quel plaisir de l écouter
16 ans pour ma part à l'époque, content de " rencontrer " une fan française de Julian . Sa carrière n'a pas eu, de façon incompréhensible, la notoriété que sa voix et son talent méritaient...ça reste vraiment un mystère pour moi, car vraiment, il a écrit et chanté de superbes " morceaux "
@@ArmelleDanguyEn effet😅 Quelle est votre chanson préférée de Julian ? Pour ma part, c'est Listen, sur l'album Help Yourself, qui est rempli de trésors, son meilleur album pour moi
This IS Julian Lennon's epic! When it was first released money thought it was a lost John Lennon track. This is probably the reason why most songs Julian released sound like the younger generation rather than his father.
What a terrific single and debut album from Julian. The only question I have is how a talent like he does not go onto superstardom in pop music? Having caught a few recent interviews of him, he clearly has his head screwed on right; a very likable fella.
I saw him answer your question in an interview once; said he couldn't stand the people in the business, not so much the musicians he played with, but on a executive /mgmt level. There's alot of narcissism, backstabbing, ego, greed, corruption, and even occasionally murder in that business. He took the Divine route (commentor above said he "looked like an angel " ???)
This is a remarkable video in the history of music. The son continued musical activities at a high level. The video was co-watched on Dec 8, 2020 at 5 p.m. (Greenwich M.T.) Thanks to Toppop & TH-cam!
Cuando escuché esta canción por primera vez pensé que era John Lennon quien la cantaba, y cuando la busqué a través de Shazam fue una grata sorpresa saber que era Julian quien cantaba este tema. ❤
Now that I am 60 yo....i can see the hard time Julian got when persoming live. The Generation X was too YOUNG! to realise the greatest of the 80d, the greatnest of Julian.
My father bought me this tape for Christmas and i am forever grateful he did. He passed a couple years later and i always think of the great times we had and how much he sacrificed to give me a great childhood
I feel extremely jealous of those who lived in that amazing era, 80s, that music, amazing artist and movies, so memorable and for me the most fashion moment in humanity, at least I can hear the magic of the music
I know one thing, I am totally still loving John Lennon, simply put, for dear Julian, one hard act to follow, but I see some difference and I think as much of this amazing young man as I did his, and as always thanks for the joy u amazing artists bring to me each and every day, beautifully done, Julian ❤❤❤❤❤
Wikipedia - “Valotte is the debut studio album by singer-songwriter Julian Lennon. The album was produced by Phil Ramone and recorded at several studios from February to August 1984. It was released in October 1984 on Charisma and Atlantic. The album was first certified gold in the United States, in the new year, then shortly afterwards being certified platinum. From the album, four singles were released, each with a music video, charting at various positions on the singles charts in both the United Kingdom and US. "Too Late for Goodbyes", the second US single, and "Valotte", the first US single, were both US Billboard Top 10 hits, the former reaching No. 5 and the latter reaching No. 9. The album peaked at No. 17 in the US and No. 20 in the UK. Lennon toured the US, Australia, and Japan in March-June 1985.”

I think alot of people had the same shock
Yeh good singer
Hermosoooo❤❤❤❤
Stessa cosa ho pensato anche io!
Same here

Well said !
Yoko non odia Julian anzi è contenta per lui e lo stesso vale per Sean!!! ❤❤❤

And having a father that abandoned him.
I know the feeling. He is so nuch stronger than we all realuze@@merricat3025
A wonderful classic by Julian. He really captured the essence of his father’s style in this song, right down to the falsetto in his voice.
ABSOLUTELY REMARKABLE. AND THIS WAS JULIAN'S DEBUT ALBUM !!!
I know!!!! It went platinum!!!
You can't buy greatness!!!
Julian Lennon have a Great Talent
Like his father
@LILIAN VAZ PRO yah Thay were
His father would be proud of him, for sure.
Was a weak product of the showbusiness
Beautiful song, beautiful voice. ❤❤❤
1984. The year when Julian Lennon recorded his first album Valotte. AWESOME memories. ❤
I don't think it was 1984 but much later.
@@michelottaviani8541 Yes it was in 1984. I bought the album that year.
1984 I was 10
@@Callmethebreeze902 I just turned 25 that year when Valotte came out. 😊
@@michaelfleming40we are old now. I was 20. It doesn't seem that long ago.

Me gusta mucho esta canción. La voz de Julian Lennon es tan bella y la música sumamente encantadora.
This is a great song. He really sounds like his father when he sings this song. He is really talented in his own right!

Totalmente, Paul McCartney fue un buen padre que es muy querido también por su talento como artista.

Julian is such a talented young man. This was one of my favourite songs as a child
Same!!!
John Lennon lives through him❤️
Jesus, how spooky is this, gives me goosebumps. Sounds exactly like dad. 😇
More popular than Jesus?
@@ronfowlermusicBro what do you mean?
I always thought this was John, so amazed how much he sounds like his Dad. When he finally did Imagine, it was so close to his father, it gave me chills.
Julian Lennon is soo gorgeous💓
I saw Julian in concert in 1985.
Still one of my most favorite concerts. Hope he tours again one day.
Julian aquí se ve magestuoso💂no me importa que lo comparen con su padre es talentoso, único y tiene su propio talento. "Julian lennon forever" love you😙❤
This was my favorite song growing up. Julian has talent wish he'd sing again
He'll be dropping a new album in September 2022.

I absolutely love this song. So beautifully melancholy that you just want to give Julian a big hug.
Most underrated man in music him and Ringo..
Hijo de tigre puntito ,ni hablar cuando hay talento lo hay y si que lo hay, hermosa melodía, simplemente encantador
Lovely Julian, I never listened to this song before, thank you for sharing.
This has been one of my favorite songs for a LONG time! Still is. ❤

There was such an innocence to that first album.
The year I gave birth to my 1st born. Hauntingly beautiful song. Thank you Julian. ❤
He is definitely his own artist, and got where he got due to his own talent. But wow does he sound like dad. He's adorable as well ❤
I love Julian Lennon. So much talent. He looks like his dad.
Cómo bailábamos pegados!!! Epoca única!!❤❤
Maybe, the most beautiful song... The music, the lyrics, It sounds perfect...

Lindo demais ele é muito parecido com o pai ❤❤❤
Maybe someday some one will love me ... this always gave me hope...🥰...I believe there is ...🙏

This song is insane ! In a good way !
The melody is so compelling, and haunting

Great song ❤ he's so talented
So beautiful and talented👏🎶🎶
For years, before the internet, this was my favorite John Lennon solo-era song... 😂.
I feel extremely jealous of those who lived in that amazing era, 80s, that music, amazing artist and movies, so memorable and for me the most fashion moment in humanity, at least I can hear the magic of the music
JULIAN LENNON IS THE TOATAL PACKAGE. BLESS HIM
like watching his dad, john would have been so proud of him
Nostalgia 😢
