On my opinion Lennon is still underrated: he was non a singer, he was a miracle
Last night my friends and i jammed out to all LENNON songs and his stuff to me is the best. He always has a message or a story and could write a song in his sleep.
So many years have passed, and then it hits you like a ton of bricks to remember that this man was murdered. Jesus. 😔
He made round sunglasses famous. He is as eclectic as they come. A true original.
This song was supposed to be a single by The Beatles, Lennon presented the song to the other members of the band and they reject it (along with "Cold Turkey" written in 1969). Lennon said about the song that he had the idea in the breakfast time, recorded it in the lunch and it was finished in the dinner time.
We can only imagine what amazing music Lennon would have created if had lived longer. The Lost Boys & Fright Night are the best 80's vampire movies.
I admit, I haven't seen the original Fright Night movie. I did see the remake though and really enjoyed it!
@@NickieReacts oh boy, well of you like that 80's vibe and look then you should check it out sometime. I actually like it better than the remake but the remake was solid. I hope you enjoy the rest of your day.
December 8th 1980 almost 40 years ago and still ranks as one of the shittiest days ever. I was watching Monday Night Football when Howard Cossell told viewers the tragic news. As for suggestions anything off Boston's debut album can't go wrong
"Working Class Hero"...."God"..."#9 Dream"
Great ones. Also, New York City, Tight A$, Bless You, Nobody Told Me...
Try Out The Blue, Happy Christmas (War Is Over), Jealous Guy, Luck of The Irish, Only People, and Isolation by Lennon. 🎶
Lennon not only wrote the song in a day but did that performance too He said he wanted to do it in an instant hence the name Instant Karma I am a song writer and I take a bit to write a song like a months at times But I have knock them off in a day or so at time When John Wrote with Paul they could write songs in 3 hours Nice reaction Regards Bill
"Here's Johnny!" is how Johnny Carson was introduced every night on the Tonight Show.
This is my favorite song by Lennon. I just love everything about it.
He's talking about enlightenment and waking up from the dream. Listen to "Watching the Wheels Go By" an example of an enlightened being who has stepped off the "Karmic wheel".
one of my fave Lennon songs! ♥
The greatest John Lennon record is " Imagine ". If you ever watch Forest Gump you'll see Forest sitting on a couch next to John Lennon
both being interviewed by Johnny Carson. and Forest gives John all the ideas for IMAGINE. The top PEACE record of ALL time. Enjoy it.
john was my favorite beatle and this is a great song.saw john's son julian lennon in concert he sounds and looks like dad good concert.
I saw Julian too! The mannerisms are SO similar on stage
I saw Sean, years ago. He's real talented, too. He did Across the Universe, as the encore. Amazing!
The video for 'Mind games' is heart breaking when you see Johns connection to the people and know how he was murdered. Thanks for reacting to him.
Afraid you were wrong about John writing it in an afternoon. It was more impressive. John woke up with the tune in his head on 27 January 1970, had the song written in an hour, and recorded it that night, with the single hitting the shops ten days later.
Yes. It was 'instant', Instant Karma. 😎
John's solo music is AMAZING! I would suggest "Cold Turkey", "I Don't Wanna be a Soldier", and "Mind Games", for starters. Thanks!! 👍🏽👍
"God," "Imagine."
@@lipby basically the entire first album
@@vondozier4431 You can't go wrong with Plastic Ono Band.
Oh no, haha. That song is gonna be stuck in my head now!
The Beatles recored their first album over night.
Remember it on the transitors radio alot back then. That and McCartney's Baby I'm Amazed. Even the first time hearing these, you KNOW.
Beautiful song. You can see him lean in on the mic to get a more bass 'Elvis' sounding voice at times. Very simple.
#9 DREAM. best Lennon song ever!!
Never seen one of your videos... Wow, that introduction. And then listening to the song I'm thinking OMG there is no better match for this song. Thanks for the reaction. 😂
The interruptions, though! Disrespectful.
@@malted1961 my response was facetious. The girl has less depth than a kiddy pool.
I idolized John Lennon. I was so devastated when I found out that he had been killed.
I'm still devistated. He lived just 40 years... and died 40 years ago. I tattooed "Imagine" in John's handwriting on my wrist. I will never forget.
React to Isolation. Very timely today.
Me too, still not over it.
Nice reaction there, if you think John Lennon writing this in an afternoon is impressive. Then you ought to check out Oh, Pretty Woman by Roy Orbison, he wrote that in 45 minutes according to those that were with him.
When I was 14 I went to a house party full of early to mid twenties people and got wrecked. The only thing I remember was asking the person controlling the music to play this song over and over again....eventually he did. And it brought me to earth in a very satisfying way. It was at that moment I realised that I knew more than many of the older people in the room.
Check out working class Hero!!! My favorite Lennon song. Great message too
John Lennon was a genius.
Janet Kloville
He was a miracle.
This December, it will be forty years since an assassin murdered him in cold blood. After all these years, I'm still in shock and denial. I still miss John Lennon...
So shocking and sad.
"I liked it." 😮 that's 😂it?? I waited to hear what you thought about the music and the message. Wompwomp
The Lost Boys had a great soundtrack too. INXS and Jimmy Barnies with "Good Times" is one rockin' song. And of course The Lost Boys theme song "Cry Little Sister" by Gerard McMann.
Two of my favorites off that soundtrack! Love "Walk This Way" and "Lost In the Shadows" as well!
yep mind games is another good one by John, also god too
As a warm up, react to Eyes Without a Face by Billy Idol. You are good, but very behind in 70 and 80 music. Love from Asia.
Awesome react to my favorite John Lennon song! Lots of video is shared with another of his "Mind Games" including the zoo 🎧 💓 🎶
How did he write one great song in an afternoon? Because they wrote so many great songs, they could produce them faster than they could cut the record, resulting in 14 Billboard Top 40 hits ranked, in one week alone.
Firstly, you're adorable. So cute! But also, I LOVE THAT SONG!!!
All the best songs are written quickly. In my experience. But I’m the #RapGameJohnLennon
from john to paul and the others 'still shine on' after the beatles~
Nice reaction I like it a lot. Can you react to A Day In The Life - The Beatles? It is their masterpiece, you will hear one the greatest songs of all times
I agree the greatest song of the 20th century
@@jvs333 by far!
@@jvs333 the video of the song is a psychedelic masterpiece too everything itself it's outstanding
@@alonsoquirosgranados7568 in 1967 I was 13 bought this LP. My dad was a violinist (cello too) I played the crescendo to him. He replayed it a half dozen times and said it was an amazing musical score. This from a man that had over 40+ years of being a violinist. He was amazed it was written by guys in their 20s
@@alonsoquirosgranados7568 agree!
Cold Turkey is a rocking grove.
I thoroughly enjoy your reaction videos ❤
Thank you!!
Now ....power to the people....Very appropriate for,our times....
John Lennon dreams of a world that we dont live in now. If we can all be friends, open borders and all love but its not reality. hence his song Imagine. So to those of ya thinking John is a socialist or communist, you got it all wrong.
I love this video and your reactions❤️
Thank you so much!
🎯 👁 *This is an anti-war anthem. The "Instant Karma" Lennon sings about is the instant negative consequences that will befall all those who advocate and proliferate war. They won't have to wait until the next life, their consequences will fall upon them instantly. Therefore, they need to "recognize the brother. Everyone you meet." Because "why on earth are we here? Surely, not to live in pain and fear."*
Great reaction and video! By the way what's the name of the song in the beginning of your video? Sounds cool.
Thanks! The song at the beginning is called "Horseshoes and Handgrenades" off of Green Day's 21st Century Breakdown album.
They made their first album overnight .
Songwriting: have something to say. Find tunes, not effects. Eventually, songwriters can write fiction (imagine a scene, write it out) but, first, find something of your own to say.

Hi. at the 1'23"-1' 30" mark, some other audio crashes over your amusing "how" remarks.
The title is obviously, eerily sad! John Lennon wasn't killed because of "bad Karma" , but it was "instant"!
I'm trying to determine if your a musician, but I saw your Quarantine video so I wasn't sure if your more into acting. Just a thought. You might set up band surveys (listing 3 or 4 bands per survey) for subscribers. I would think that might help us help you select songs in your quest for songs to react to.
I am certainly a musician as well! I kind of always thought about acting but never really pursued it!
Rapid song writing is usually channeling.
You should watch the movie, 'Hard Days Night'.
You've got to "pause" to "comment", Sister!
Can't distract from song- during song. Not to mention...can't hear what your saying!
THE BEATLES WROTE THE WHITE ALBUM IN ONE DAY.
Old head here. "Working Class Hero" and "God" are da best. Philosophical and political
Do yourself a favor. If you haven't, get Plastic Ono Band and play it through.
Lost boys was a good movie, vampire movies have lost their way now.
Here, your new follower saluts you 🌹
Stephen King looked so disappointed 😂
the al(pha) beet colmpanies hated him. brothers. know your enemies.
Geez, your wearing a lost boys shirt. You can handle the shining probably....lol
not much of a reaction....
Meat City.
So wenig wie Du diese Zeilen lesen kannst, verstehe ich Dich, Du Schöne! Keine Panik, ich bin der Opa aus der Ostzone!
I never liked the production on this song. It's echoey, harsh and distant. It's sounds like a rough mix. Try :"John Lennon - Double Fantasy - 16 - Walking On Thin Ice
" - The song he and his wife were working on the night he died. Very cool underrated track.
She's doing lead vocal though. John's guitar work is cool on it, but that voice.
@@MrKeychange Yes but that track is basically about everything BUT the vocals. I think it would be just as good as an instrumental. It sounds cutting edge for 1980. Like he is entering into new wave determined to master and dominate it. In my opinion it was probably the best thing that came out of those sessions.
@@paulknight9998 He was trying to create a B52's song. It was his favorite new band at the time. It would have been fun to hear him working with them like he did with Bowie.
I know Yoko is just on vocals, but man it's like a ferrel cat singing over it. 🤣 I do agree the guitar solo is ripping, but I'm not sure if it's John or Slick playing.
@@paulknight9998 George Small is doing some great keyboard work on it too. I know John thought it would be a hit for her and I think it actually became a hit in dance clubs.
@@MrKeychange It did. It was huge in NYC. It's the last track John worked on. I'm ok with it, and agree it was cutting edge. But, I prefer Nobody Told Me. It's his last real Lennon rocker. Cheers.
I just had to rerun your intro. Your child has tatoos . . . really ?
I won’t watch The Shining, either.
I can agree with you there!
Love your reactions ... If ever you get a chance try " I Want To Know What Love Is by Foreigner ... thank you.
Thank you! That song sounds very familiar to me going off the title. I may already know that one!
@@NickieReacts ok thank you
So you don’t have much to say. You just want to attract viewers and what better lure than a Beatle?
I think that she seemed pretty sincere. I like that she chose this song, as it's a favorite of mine, too. It's cool to see a younger gal getting into Lennon. Always, a good sign. Cheers.
lol another paul mccartney hate song
You're supposed to react to the song, not google the song in order to find out a load of trivia that you then share with us. Listen to and react to, the song, not the video, which is irrelevant.
The video is still a part of the song. And sometimes people enjoy little tidbits of information. If you don't like the way that I make my videos, don't watch them. :)
@@NickieReacts I believe John would've approved of this response. Well done. 😎✌👍👏
