WATCHING THE WHEELS
People say I'm crazy doing what I'm doing
Well they give me all kinds of warnings to save me from ruin
When I say that I'm O.K., well they look at me kind of strange
"Surely you're not happy now you no longer play the game?"
People say I'm lazy, dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice designed to enlighten me
When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall
"Don't you miss the big time boy, you're no longer on the ball?"
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round, I just had to let it go
People asking questions, lost in confusion
Well, I tell them there's no problem, only solutions
Well, they shake their heads and look at me as if I've lost my mind
I tell them there's no hurry, I'm just sitting here doing time
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round, I just had to let it go

A song written by a man who was finally at peace with himself. Imagine what he could have produced had he lived.
yea amazing stuff :)
Love your comment. It’s so true
"Imagine"
😭💔
Yes, but he did live.
Rest in peace John. You may not be here but your voice can still be heard around the world.
John Lennon was truly a man of peace. He accepted people as they were, not what they should be or what they could be. He loved to he loved even if others may not have accepted interracial relationships. If more people today were like John, it would indeed be a better world. Sad to say, this world is going to hell in a hand basket because of the decisions that people choose to make. It could be such a beautiful world if we could eliminate hatred and if more people became humanitarians. Peace and love Laura

YES!
Truth is power . JLO shares that to you bro .
Incredible that this man composed “Imagine” & “Jealous Guy” in 1971 and almost ten years later after 5 years of house-husbandry retirement, he gave us this masterpiece statement on enjoying the simple things in life without caring what the outside world thinks. He was a free man. And he shared his newfound freedom with his fans. And then he was gone having left us this beautiful message
This song came out in 1980 on the Double Fantasy album. It was out for maybe a month or two when John was taken from us. The radio couldn't get enough of the song back then. And neither could John's fans. Even those that didn't like John's music wanted to hear this all the time. I was 17 then. Now, I'm 60 and after 43 years, I find the song still has meaning. You're still missed John. RIP.
Hey if you like John Lennon you should listen to a band called The Doublejumps 💖They have beautiful songs!
🎉RIP John Happy Birthday Willie Nelson We love you!!❤🎉😢😮😅😊

Jesus said, "I tell you the truth no one will see the kingdom of God unless he is born again. I am the way the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father except through me." For God so loved the world that He give His only Son that whoever believes in Him will not perish but will have eternal life. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world but to save the World through Him. For all have sinned and come short of the Glory of God. For the wages of sin is death but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord, and All who call upon the name of the Lord will be saved. " If you want to be sure of Heaven and avoid the other place below say the following prayer sincerely from your heart." Lord Jesus I repent and am sorry for my sins forgive me. I forgive all who have offended me. Come into my heart and save me. I accept you as my Lord and Saviour. Fill me with your Holy Spirit and baptise me with your Holy Spirit. Fulfill your plan and purpose in my life. "I recommend you read John's Gospel especially chapter 3.Gbu.John 3v3v22,John 14v6.
@@jacobking3211 Opinions vary. Thanks for yours. Have a great day.
John Lennon’s voice is one of the most comforting sounds in the world 💗
yes Melissa,he was/is a giant of popular music
Yes I agree 💯 love John Lennon songs I remember in 1980 when I was 14
Destroyed by a madman
what's strange is that apparentally he hated his own voice
Yeah, it's exactly like this for me. I listen he when i was a little child on radio and that's was... love. He has a great referenter for me, like a father and best friend. I feel every word for every song that he sang, and listen to him it's one of the things than brings to me peace, confort and peace.
Back in the day, I saw John with Sean in Cental Park...he was the happiest man alive then...RIP...
Really lucky man
Hard to begrudge him his happiness just because it cost us a few more Beatles songs. Not as though the band members didn't keep releasing amazing tracks on their own.
@@Evan.harrison
Non answer
Louis Can you talk More about that day when you Saw John and Sean in Central Park?
@@sergiojulianlopezpuebla9720 Yes, back then I worked in Central Park...John would take Sean to what is now...Strawberry Fields and the playground...John lived in the prestigious...Dakota on 72nd Street & Central Park West...he was approachable but guarded when he was with Sean...he was a very happy and carefree man...may he RIP...
John totally got it!!!!
There are no problems, only solutions
What a beautiful soul!!
Three minutes of pure joy in this video
The solution is simply Letting Go 🙏
@aanii2878 there is duality in everything, let go to much and you are adrift, hold on to tight and you are fighting the tide. The letting go must be in the accepting of the ebb and flow, and wisdom might be in the knowing of both. Peace
IMAGINE ... it's been over 40 years since he left us ...December '80 ...
He was only 40 then...
@@jc-16. That was an awesome comment
His death still haunts me. One of the greatest losses of my 59 years. He was & is the greatest, the GOAT. Thank you John for being.
Yes I agree 💯 John Lennon passing away still haunts me I remember in 1980, when I was 14,miss him,still love his music
Pretty pathetic an idol is one of the greatest losses compared to a family member wow!

@@scottferguson2278 enjoy your satanic idols my friend
Hey Scott. I was a teenager at the time and it upended my life. A tragic loss .
John's voice had this unusual characteristic of seeming to address you, the listener, directly.
His music truly spoke x
Jack Beedie yesss
Exactly, for me only Lennon, Bob Marley and Dylan have had this quality in English language music
@h d That's an interesting way of looking at it, I never really thought about it that way.
@@hw343434 don't forget the Dead catalog m'boy.
The fact that he was murdered and robbed of his golden years with his family and legacy is what's most depressing.
Let's not forget how he beat his first wife while addicted to smack
@Planeswalker Maybe I can acknowledge his wrongdoings while still supporting his music
@Planeswalker To quote the philosopher Nicholson, "YOU CAN'T HANDLE THE TRUTH!"
@@SirPdog What's your point? That he deserved to die for beating his wife?
RIPTOTHEREALHARAMBE which he did once and apologised for?

That's what it is. Love. One soul speaking to another but made of the same "thing". I love You All. ✌️ ❤️
What a senceless lost
❤❤❤❤❤
Talking to me my whole life
John was, is and will always be one of the reasons why I cry. A deep love for him that I can't explain. I don't care about this or that or what people thought of him and what made him happy. All I care is that he existed. What an absolute loss, it still hurts so much. Rest easy, John. We will never forget you and your creations.
Wow uknow thatjonhhaos yoko oh thats bad thinkinhb
I feel the same! I have such a deep affinity for what he represented,it's just indescribable. I will always listen to his music and be a fan.
Don't Cry Just Enjoy Life 🙏 RESPECT 💯🌹
So!!!! True, He put Life. in a Song.🎤🎼
Basically the ONLY musical artist (genius) whose passing made/makes me cry. This album is a masterpiece.
How anyone could end such a wonderful person is beyond me. Thank you for your beautiful music and life Mr Lennon.
central bankers killed John Lennon and now the world is more the way they want it and less the way John wanted it.

The more I learn about this Chapman fellow the more I think he's a real jerk.
MK ultra . He spread love and the powers above didn't like it
I could listen to this song a million times and never get sick of it! Wait !!! I have!
This was Norm MacDonald favorite song, Rest In Glory my friend.
The last song he shared on his Twitter.. RIP to Lennon and Norm.. 😢
:(
We've lost him, and Hartman. Just sad
I so love this song, so many memories. This song illustrates that John was going through all the changes in life that we all go through, but on a much bigger scale. To go from the member of the most famous band ever to being a regular dad must of quite the challenge, but he seemed to adapt to it well and seemed genuinely happy. Sean was so loved by his papa. Blessings to all.
Norm MacDonald brought me here.
80 years ago a legend was born. We only had him for 40 of those years, and it still makes no sense why.
He was a sacrifice.
My wife says another legend was born 51 years ago today..😉 thats what brought me here..
Still believe in karma, kids?
.... best not to try make sense of anything .... life unfolds in the most abstract ways sometimes that all can be said is that it's a TRAGIC COMEDY SHOW
My sister & him share the same day. I cried so hard that day. I wish he were still here.
Missing you today 12/8/22 - and every day. Your boys are well and the world still loves you.
His voice connects on a very deep spiritual level....you know when he really means it.
It really does ❤
Child of Nature for example
As I grow older (41 at the moment), this song takes on deeper meaning. I see many people struggling and fighting so hard for the things they think they need, the things they believe will define and complete them, and yet I feel no need to struggle so hard for things that ultimately mean so little.
My hope is that with time, others will see that all we really need to pursue is inner happiness.
I liked it the first time i heard it, 5 years old probobly.....i'm 39 now. The older i get the more i understand it
Where duz inner happiness come from? Only from the heart of those sadhus who have inner happiness.
Inner happiness is not self created.
well said, takes awhile to get it, but finally, like you i did,,, HEALTH,, the rest,, the universe,,,, then it becomes less of a headache,,,cheers
I'm 25 years old and I have realized that my peace of mind is more important that all of my dreams combined (insert peace of mind song of Boston) after suffering from depression. Some people think I'm crazy for giving up my former ambitious self at such a young age but when will they understand, I don't know. As my idol John Lennon once said, "I just like watching the wheels go round and round".
My dad and I had an amazing bond over music and this was our song. He passed away last July and today I'm sobbing listening to this. Life's so beautiful and fragile
Sorry for the loss of your father..
Im sorry brother, keep this song
Your dad passed down some brilliant tunes for u to remember him by. He's sounds a very clever man.
R.i.P
Sorry about your Dad , Parker ....
Sending you healing 💚
The man had an open heart and an open mind. He found peace of mind in his musical writing. When a person has peace of mind they're carefree and happy.
12-8-2022... first and last song of the day. My tradition continues. ❤️ JL
One of the best songs ever recorded...when you consider the songwriter and his career....a masterpiece
Yes I agree 💯 a master piece, awesome singer and song writer John Lennon
December 8, 1980 one of the worst days in my life. RIP John, you are missed.
8TH DECEMBER IS ALSO ONE OF THE WORST DAYS OF MY LIFE, HARD TO BELIEVE THAT IT HAPPENED 40 YEARS AGO. BUT WILL NEVER FORGET HOW I FELT ON HEARING THE NEWS OF HIS MURDER. WONDER WHAT HE'D THINK OF TODAYS MUSIC
I recall that horrible day. I was a senior at The University Of Texas and heard the news on the radio. (remember those?) Called my best friend and my girl friend and we all went down to Zilker Park. There must have been a thousand people out there. No one spoke. We all lit candles and walked around in sadness and shock. Imagine if John were alive today... Imagine...
If it makes you feel better, I've been practicing piano and singing "imagine" for a while now and this december im going to play and sing louder than ever
40 years... ok boomers
Yup
I cant believe this only has 24 million views . I have watched it 25 millions time myself 😂
This song sums up how I feel these last couple of years. Nothing wrong with taking a break and 'watching the wheels'. I just had to let it go.
Why are we always chasing money and success?
Stop, think and smell the roses.
Angus Yates That's because most of us on this planet are so brainwashed to the point where they have actually gone blind.
Love this GUY and this song is PRICELESS 😭😭😭 🇨🇦 🇮🇹 💖🎶
His song "Imagine" says it all so simply and effectively. Yet all those years later in 1980 he gave us this. I know myself along with his millions of other fans would have liked to see what else he had coming but that was stolen from us all when his life was stolen by a crazy person.
I tell em that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall
I tell them there's no hurry, I'm just sitting here doing time.@@dustinmarlowe9258
Arrived in Manhattan the morning after John died, went to Central Park and cried
Hard to believe John has been dead for as long as he was alive.
A TRUE SHAME FRIEND BLESS YOU 🙏😑💝🤝🏼🤝
😞
ohhhh .....yeah...........a sad, weird statistic. Never forget that moment in early december 1980 at the age of 22 for me....
He's alive and well somewhere I feel, probably watching over us, His soul hasn't died.
By 7 February 2021, it will be 40 years and 2 months since he died.
Never met the man in person but I surely love John Lennon. Totally inspiring and comforting
John Lennon is something else.
The thing that his solo masterpieces and the ones with The Beatles are still been listened is amazing. But thinking that in all these years no one have been able to be even close to the level of composition of John Lennon or The Beatles, just make me appreciate then even more. John, Paul, George and Ringo are really one in humanity existence.
Been a Beatles fan for over 40 years and the more the time pass, the more I admire John songwriting skills.
Perfect song for my recovery. Thank You John Lennon. Rest in peace my Brother.
probably my favorite Lennon's song. I feel like he's being the most sincere here.
"I just have to let it go."
Between this and Nobody Told Me.
Perfect lyric!!!
It is his best solo, but Yoko made sure Julian was never part of the family. POS.
"Woman"
He did his best work by himself. He never needed a band!!!!!!😊❤
I love Johns solo work but come on nothing can’t match the magic he produced with the Beatles
This is the anthem for all folks who, these days, enjoy being at home with a pizza, a cold beer and a good movie on a Saturday night.
amen.
It may be a little deeper than that.
Yes I agree a great song, John Lennon a awesome singer and song writer
or for those who have put their life 'on hold' to take care of family.
@@dsm3759703 the comment is deeper than it appears. Come back when you're older (?) and realize what you've had to move on from.
Forty years ago today, and he is still missed as much.
It’s sad to think that his death anniversary is turning 40 this year and he only lived 40 years. We miss you so much John. Gone way to soon.
I hope they figure out this virus crap because I would love to see a big celebration for him. I was born in '85 but I grew up being an obsessive Beatles fan. John Lennon is my favorite of all 4 though I love them all. His music got me through some tough times.
I’m Not The Walrus, Are You? Wow, forty yrs. that is crazy. I was six yrs old, didn’t know who the Beatles were, but knew something major happened. God I get so mad every time I think about it.
@@benringenberg6265 I was 12 years old, and grew up listening to my older brother's Beatles albums. I remember the horror and hurt of his murder. I came home from school and my mum told me he had died. And I remember I said "Was it drugs?" and she said "No, a madman shot him outside his home".
It still makes me feel sick thinking about that news today, the disbelief, pain and anger. And I was a kid who never even met him! But that was the power and charisma of John Lennon, so many felt personally bereft. He was here such a short time, only half his natural life. Yet he touched many millions of people with his vision and his music. I'm just glad he had joy in his personal life with his wife Yoko and their little boy, and his elder son Julian who he was making plans to see more of. It's the cruellest injustice for them that a nobody was able to steal him from them forever.
@@glamdolly30 you pretty much captured exactly my feelings on the tragedy. It still, and will always, hurt. The anger is almost overwhelming sometimes.
@@benringenberg6265 Thanks, it's somehow reassuring to know others feel these powerful emotions about someone they never met. I'm sure like me you sometimes watch these videos and wish by some miracle you could jump into shot and warn him, and stop the tragedy from happening. It's as crazy as watching film of the Kennedy assassination over and over, hoping it will have a different ending if you play it enough times.
We cannot change the past, only the future. John Lennon always looked forward with hope, never back with regret. I'm sure that's how he'd want us to live our lives too. God bless. X
I've known and loved this song since I was a teen. Didn't truly understand until just now what John meant by "I just have to let it go"... I love you, John.
Same here!
True and I believe I understand it since I'm a little older and hopefully a little wiser.
significa che tutto scorre, devi lasciare sapere andare
That is the thing about great music. It is great even if you don't understand the words then gets even better when you do. John, Paul and George all seem to have that gift. Might explain why I so loved their music when I was a kid but like it even more now.
I miss John so very much, His music has and will always be a part of my life. This video makes me smile. Seeing all of them together and knowing he was able to be really happy for awhile.
We really miss you these days, brother.
I absolutely agree, we need someone with power that isnt a scared chicken, who dares to say anything what he thinks.
John lennon was a legend
@@pimprijs8836 John Lennon is still a legend
boxingking, that's right. He always will be.
Mike Gates, Amen! God Bless.
He was a violent, women-beating hypocritical asshole who abandoned his first wife and child. But by all means, bleat on, sheep.
This has to be THE BEST song ever written about personal introspection and life direction and self awareness. It's John Lennon answering his critics and singing you a personal accounting of his life at that stage.
So many great insights on his last 2 records.

It's a wonderful response to his critics. How could he be allowed to live.
@@user-ww4bw9qe9h Megan. By 'his critics' it was a reference to those in the music industry and others who criticized him for taking such a long time out of the public eye when he concentrated on bringing up Sean. As for your comment about him not being allowed to live, I take it that you reference his probable assassination when he strated getting musically and politically active again?
@@garryharriman7349 yes.Indeed. After he met Yoko his direction became more purposeful shall we say and in whose interests that didn't bode well. He was so influential. With regard to his taking the time out to be with his son I congratulate him I completely understand despite what the music critics might have said.. I relate to this song so well.
John Lennon is one of my favorite artists, he's so soulful and genuine. He really was apart of setting the standard for what it means to be a quality human being.

@BeatleManiac i hope he gets out. There's no way he will live more than a week after that

That’s a sad fact!
If this doesn’t bring a tear to your eyes, somethings wrong. John was loving this second chance of being a father. You can truly tell he just loved being Sean’s dad. It’s beautiful really. Being a father is a special, beautiful blessing.
I would have loved to see John as a 76 year old
Tragic is an understatement. The idea that one man stole so much away from so many, from the WORLD, its discouraging and leaves a sick feeling in my knotted stomach. The beauty and ever so unique ideology or, ideals that were snuffed out at such an early age of a man who had endless talent and devotion, passion...truly breaks my heart. I believe his untimely death was government/CIA sanctioned, personally. But despite my 'conspiracy theory' I'm sure we can all believe and agree that it was an unspeakable sin and crime against humanity, and much more, to take this brilliant and innocent man's life.
He would have a long gray beard and shout "Saruman has nothing on me!!" from the balcony
John would stay the heck away from twitter
Jamie 😂😂😂
Sexy Curvy Girl 1974 nah i doubt u would,he stood for womens rights,but not loony left women men haters and pro abortion (many say is murder )and crazy antifa,plus i know he was %100 a brexiteer who hated the globalists,theres vid of him talking about the crazies leaders who are globalist.All you need is love,like Jesus said.

One of my favorite songs of his. It's a nod to simply slow down and enjoy life the way you want to and everyone's course is different. John was at peace with his life and content with where he was at that point in time having Sean
You'd probably like a band called The Doublejumps if you like John Lennon's music
Timeless voice! Lyrics are so relevant to me now! Gave up watching tv/sports/social media two years ago! Just had to let it go!!!! Never been happier! 🙏🏼❤️🙏🏼
People say I'm crazy
Doing what I'm doing
Well, they give me all kinds of warnings
To save me from ruin
When I say that I'm okay, well they look at me kinda strange
"Surely, you're not happy now, you no longer play the game"
People say I'm lazy
Dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice
Designed to enlighten me
When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall
"Don't you miss the big time boy, you're no longer on the ball?"
_I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round_
_I really love to watch them roll_
_No longer riding on the merry-go-round_
_I just had to let it go_
Ah, people asking questions
Lost in confusion
Well, I tell them there's no problem
Only solutions
Well, they shake their heads and they look at me, as if I've lost my mind
I tell them there's no hurry, I'm just sitting here doing time
Love this tune! "Just watchin the wheels go 'round and 'round" says it all.

Legend , that’s all
Amen
@SUGAR XYLER ! please do everyone a favour and delete that comment, its distasteful at best.
John,
You were, you are, and you always will be the Beatles no matter what ANYONE else says.
You are one of the most influential, creative, and inspirational human beings who has ever lived. The finest songwriter without equal and a great musician.
There will NEVER be anyone like you again, nor will the world be blessed with the likes of your unique and boundless talent ever again.
May you rest in eternal peace comforted by God's love as well as the love, respect, and admiration of your many, many fans and devotees the world over.
What about Paul, George and Ringo. Kinda ridiculous to bot talk of them.
Anyone not aware The Beatles were Johns band from day one until day over does not really know The Beatle or John well enough. But that aside, he more then proved himself with his solo work. I think we all know he had more in him after Double Fantasy but that was stolen from us all when his life was stolen.
Happy 78th Birthday, John Lennon! This is the song I wanted to hear for your birthday! It's the one I can relate to most!
PLEASE don’t put this mans killers name in this comment section. His name should never be spoken or written about.

@@46monkeyes ikr. Not even inclined to check! the POS
Votamor?
Loving this man eternally. So missed…
His songs gave me so much advice, comfort and wisdom. He gave the world so much forca way too short time. But he will never be forgotten. My 9 year old son knows every song of him.
At a certain point one has nothing more to prove and oh so much to give. John got to that point. So many don't. This song is a little gift. Peace in 2021, all.
Thank you John, for giving us the Beatles. Even though it cost you your life. RIP
The song was written by a man with a brilliant mind and a man who dedicated this song to his lovely family who decided to give more time and show how he value and love this woman and child...Yoko you are really lucky to have the heart of the Legend John Lennon...
The wheels was the one who droves his life that time and that was Yoko and Sean..
He did have another son that he walked out on
@@bryan9029 yeah you're that was Julian his eldest son, the son that somehow neglected not intensionally in a way, due to their popularity as THE BEATLES, his career was so high as the sky that time, I feel bad for Julian, but in someway I understand John, so when Sean came he really gave his time to be a father,,
I mean you're right
What a great father I guess Julian just slipped his mind
It's all a metaphor. He's describing the earth lol
"You can talk to me, If you're lonely you can talk to me. For now." John Lennon.
I am 69 yrs old and still shed tears over John Lennon, It will and has never been the same..
you not alone Kate. i miss him, always.
Absolutely my favorite song by John Lennon & one of my favorite songs of all time...I cry everytime I listen to this song...I don't know why...but I do!!!
Much love from Mobile Alabama
There are a few songs that cause me to cry.. most from John Lennon or The Beatles. I gave up trying to figure out why. I just know they must be great songs or why else would I continue to listen to them even when they make me cry.
John and paul were simply the greatest 2 songwriters of all time! What were the chances of them being born at the same time, in the same town of the same country?!? We were blessed.
Impossible to watch without tears. God what else could John have given us?
This song should be the anthem for humanity in itself.
That would be Imagine
@@SoundMuzak The satanic anthem.
maybe one day they'll see to get off the merry-go-round
Happy Birthday, John. The world misses you. And it needs you now more than ever. ❤️😔
I couldn't agree with you more!!
This gets me through my day, thanks John...love you!
One of the most beautiful songs ever written, sang and composed.......Love You forever John.......
John Lennon is a legend and I’m devastated when my classmates don’t know him and about the Beatles but they memorized all kpop groups.I hope someday they hear this kinds of music
A kid in 1964: " Louis Armstrong is a legend and I’m devastated when my classmates don’t know him and about the Hot Fives and Sevens but they memorized all British Invasion groups.I hope someday they hear this kind of music."
A kid in 2064: " BTS are legends and I’m devastated when my classmates don’t know them and about kpop but they memorized all Space Robots from the Future groups.I hope someday they hear this kind of music."
@@MathTravels Every generation gets its legends. We had John.
Way back in college.. my classmates call me weird because im listening beatles, most of my songs in my phone are beatles, john lennon , beegess, carpenters, they dont know who is john lennon is. . They just knows one direction, Justin beiber, lady gaga etc.
@@jeanpaulconfesor2504 Me either.
@@jeanpaulconfesor2504 Same here! Feel like the Beatles community has gotten a lot smaller in recent years
I was 9 years old and watching football with my uncle when Howard Cosell announced John's death. Im 49 years old now but remember that night clearly. Gone too soon!! RIP
You're 13 years older than me.
I remember that moment clearly, i was 10 when it happened
I was with my grandfather watching Monday night football and I remember Howard Cosell interrupted the game with this horrible news . This album reminds me of my youth and all my choice I still had . I just graduated from high school in 1980 and I went to Hollywood to be a musician and photographer while doing the college thing . It was the best years of my life . .Since I grew up 60 miles from Los Angeles . I was forever Grateful that John didn't fold and get the Beatles back together . I admired him for always putting his priorities first and never Selling out ! Thank you John .
Almost every single song of his brings me a sweet & sour sensation. Sad but warm. I cry but still happy for being alive.
Thank u, John
John sure did deserve a longer life than only 40 years.
Gay boi

Here I am, 41+ years after Lennon was assassinated, listening to a song that was recorded one month before he was assassinated and it has always been one of my favorites. I can relate to it now in my retirement years. It's hard to imagine how many millions of people have never heard or or heard of it. But that's their loss, not mine. I was blessed to be alive throughout the era of the Beatles and their musical accomplishments as solo artist.
☮️
Yes I agree,I'm 56 now and I remember the Beatles in the 70s, and John Lennon in1980, when I was 14,so sad he passed away,may John Lennon RIP 💐
I was 8 when he died, I heard it early morning on the 9th whilst pushing my car's around my floor. His music will never die and as others have said, it makes me sad when I see this guy and think to myself he has been dead 43 years almost, it's another lifetime ago. But he is so very relevent still today.
All over a book huh?
I'm about your age. I was fifteen and had just bought the album and then he was killed. I was too young to have a crush or any of that but I started listening to the Beatles, thanks to my best friend;s brother who was 10 years older than we were, meaning 6 years old. So in my own way I did grow up with the Beatles, but John Lennon always pushed the boundaries. I still have the album and I still remember crying when he was killed. This also is my favorite song from the album. We live in such crazy times; just slow down and enjoy.
I love this song my cousins were older and I was much younger than them. I would sit and play their album John Lennon over and over without them knowing. One of my favorites.❤
What I love about Lennon is he actually said something!
John Lennon died 15 years before I was born. He’s still my favourite singer of all time and he is the biggest musical genius of all time
This man's music could have saved us from ourselves.
That is the saddest thing I've ever read. Because it is so true. It seems like he was on the right path to do it too.
It did.
Wayne J, WOW! That is exactly what I was going to say.
It saves me every day. ✌
Save YOURSELF.
Usually i play the tough guy but im not afraid to say i shed some tears listening to this, kinda heart breaking they had to take this man from the world.
I first heard this song at the ending period of my reckless life. A new beginning with my son being born and countless of memories to be had and joy to be shared. My favorite Beatle song .
One of the most brilliant songs ever written.
Rest In Peace John...38 years ago❤️
Es un cantante de otra galaxia
My Corona Virus Lockdown Anthem at the moment. (Edit, August 2020: 6 months into Lockdown and it's now 'The Fightin' Side of Me' by Merle Haggard.)
My very thought. I've been playing too. It fits the QUARENTINE perfectly.
Mine too. It is certainly better than watching paint dry. Also my all-time favorite song written by John. Imagine is the runner up for me, because WTW seems to be so personal about him.
You could chose afew more from John easy! Peace, stay safe🎸.
Modern Love by David Bowie is another your welcome:)
My life feels like Sat. School
C’est une de ses plus belles chansons qui dit tellement tout !
Je t’aime cher John 🙏🙏🙏❤️
Perfect song. "No longer riding on the merry-go- 'round... I just had to let it go." Did it myself once. Good for the soul.
Love him,I remember when the world was robbed of this genius like it was yesterday,I was 18 I'm 57 now ,still stunned
His music is timeless and beautiful. I so miss the man. I miss hearing his voice.
Today is December 8, my birthday, and John,s 43rd anniversary on this sad night in 1980. I will never forget.
The instruction manual for my life. John has been my muse and spirit animal in this game.
This is one of those songs that I like BECAUSE of the lyrics. Usually the lyrics in songs are secondary for me, but Lennon's lyrics are so real
Lennon was ahead of our time....it takes the right moment in your life for you to undestand this song. You must be at the right place mentally...if tou got it ghen consider your self blessed.
R. I. P JOHN LENNON ❤️ A GENIUS. OF THE WORLD MUSIC Thank YOU. 🇬🇧.
FYI, the term "R.I.P." is short for "Requiescat in pace", which is Latin for "May he rest in peace", meaning that we pray to God that he will be loosed from Purgatory as soon as possible and go to heaven. The prayers assumes he went to Purgatory. and not hell.
Baldwin bust paparazzi for fake photos of the merchadise scandalous and .....el jefe peace out better days ... aka jive tallkers stalkers take a shower.....tj $$ Amazon publishing thx
@@rubecork7102 there is no heaven, hell, or purgatory. GROW UP 😎
@@ClassicRock1973 That's what R.I.P. means, like it or not. BTW, I can prove to you they exist, but this certainly isn't the place for it.
Yes I agree 💯 John Lennon a awesome singer and song writer
John's solo stuff in the 70s was exceptional.Often wonder what he would have went onto produce in the 80s and 90s.
I'm turning 50 in a few days. I can't believe John was a decade younger than me when he was murdered. Still feeling somewhat young myself, i can't imagine dying at 40. Rip.❤
Happy Birthday my boy
God he had just came back and then he was gone forever...only his memories and music live on
This song helped put down the bottle. Thank you Mr. Lennon
