  • Julian is a sweetheart.

  • julian <33333333 and his mother Cyn <333333333333

  • I think this IS a coded message announcing some kind of subversive act.

  • looks a bit like bono here lol

  • sounds like a code for something

  • Great video of Julian who looks and sounds exactly like John and seems really sweet. Thanks for the post.

  • John Lennon made great music, but in real life, he was a prick.

  • @sheametsfan6 John had problems and made mistakes but 'in real life' we all have and all will because nobody is perfect in this world.

  • @samusic160 Have you ever told your son that he came out of a whiskey bottle on a Saturday night?

  • @Fooblestheclown If you really like Julian that much, you wouldn't say that. Sean was actually quite close to his brother Julian. I'm pretty sure Julian wouldn't appreciate your comment.

  • i like your mom and dad.i read your mom's book.

  • I love u Juliannnnnn <3

  • Muy bueno!!!

  • i think i might've been a bit late to go there. :/

  • Julian got the big-time talent! He is so special.

  • Bloody hell we've got mystic meg on here, you knew that John lennon was going to make it up with Julian in 1985, had he not been shot dead in 1980?? - Amazing!! (You bloody stupid idiot)

    John Lennon was a wonderful singer/ songwriter but a terrible father to Julian, simple as that

  • @Darrell9029 yeach that's the true lennon not was good father for julian ,and also not was good husband for his mother Cyn

  • He's really awesome and I love that he worked on this project,

    but in this video it sounds like he is trying out four different slogans and couldn't pick which one to put in the video ....

    and I'm not knocking him, he's awesome, but that's just how it sounds to me

  • Julian is a great guy

  • Julian@!!!

  • This guy is much more talented than his little spoiled half brother. Pity he looks more like Cynthia than his dad. Julian's half brother is banking on the fact that he looks more like his dad.  Sean has no talent at all, where Julian actually does.

  • Did you know that John & Yoko were heroin addicts?

  • @starsparkle9 Meh, I doubt that.

  • was this the guy who inspired paul to write hey jude, or was that a different child of johns?

  • BeatlesForever22, yes, John only had one son with his 1st wife ~ Julian. The story goes that it was originally Hey, Jules, but later changed to Hey, Jude, because it sounded better.

  • @BeatlesForever22 Yeah it was, the song was originally going to be called "Hey Julian" but they decided Jude sounded better

  • @BobJ93 They? Paul wrote Hey Jude ....

  • Yes.

  • The measure of any man in this world is how is as a father, I find to it diffiult to say but John Lennon was a complete utter twat and I hope in death he has realised the obvious disgraceful damage he has left behind withinn his first son, and I'm a Beatle fan

  • Uncalled for. He was mending his ways and on the right track, when he unfortunately got shot. Shame on you, for placing no value in people who were born imperfect but try to improve themselves. Five more years and he would have redeemed things with his English family. But no, he's probably a twat for letting himself get shot, right ... ?

  • Julian obviously had some monster shoes to fill! I think he did it quite well! I've been a fan since we first heard of him. In so many ways, he is his father. He has amazing talent, and indescribable voice. and is an all around awesome person. I respect him SO much for what he has accomplished! Had it not been for John....... we would have had Julian!

  • yoko changed john for the worse and i think its that change that killed the beatles, weather or not john or yoko would admit it. and i would bet that it was yoko who kept john away from julian, but its hard to say

  • John was raising julian the way his father raised him.Learning from his mistakes,he tried to raise sean the best he could,until he was murdered.I really wish john was still with us...he was such a good person

  • @dubbly1 beautiful response and full of compassion. sadly many men are physically and/or emotionally absent from the lives of their children. what's inspiring to me was the profound transformation John underwent, and that he was doing right by Sean from birth and attempting to heal his relaionship with sean. all of which makes his dead even more deeply tragic

  • ringo es genial

  • so, did Julian get some of daddy's money after all the fight?

  • He and Yoko had a case for 16 years. After Yoko got a lot of bad press, she gave him some money. He has used the money to buy back John's stuff Yoko sold and has had the items preserved and put together an exhibit at the Beatles story in Liverpool with proceeds going to charities.Side note: Some of the stuff Julian had to buy back were things HE gave John, like postcards/letters. It's sad and very greedy of Yoko to not just GIVE these things to Julian. She certainly didn't need the money.

  • @annm1969 OMG, she's a meany woman. Poor Julian I feel bad for him, but honestly his music sounds better than Sean.

  • I have love ya Julian!!!!

  • Julian is a very cool guy, I have never met him BUT he sent me once on Myspace very nice not on my birthday.

    I wish him all the best, and though he might have had a a life very different from ours, he ended up to be very nice. I bet his mom AND dad are proud of who he is!

  • Julian said that he is closer to Paul than John..Paul is more like a dad to him than his own father. I Love THE BEATLES with all my heart but only George and Ringo is the only member i like. John is a cheater and Paul is full of ego.

  • Disagree about Paul...

  • Yep, Yoko was responsible for John not seeing Julian. May Pang was responsible for getting John to call Julian and get involved in his life again.

    It all boils down to Yoko. She wanted to make sure his millions went to her and her son, Sean.

  • No one is responsible for anyone's actions but their own. John was just a fucked up dad to his first son. He was continuing the behavior set by his dad. One can only speculate that guilt is why he was there for his second son.

  • Beatler11 Being busy is no excuse not to see your son. When he was being the "househusband" and a recluse, he still seldom saw Julian and treated him badly when he did see him. Clay180 two good books to read would be Fred Seamon's: Last Days and also Cynthia Lennon's: John. If you liked Yoko at all, after these books you will change your mind. Any story that has her involvement will be different from everybody else's version. She's been editing Lennon's life to her liking since he died.

  • Crap man. he was a F***ing rock star .Everyone kissed his ass and like it said in Mays book , he really felt like the world revolved around him. He lived this mania and really had very little time for visiting Julian.

  • I don't think John would have had the balls to cross "mother" and go see his son. Yoko told the staff to never let calls from Julian through to John. Also when Julian did visit she went out of her way to treat him like he was one of the servant's kids by making him ride with the help, telling everyone to never give him anything, all while they were showering Sean with everything he wanted right in front of Julian. Yoko made sure Julian knew his place in John's life and John never stepped up.

  • I dont see how people can muster their opinions of John being a strong man. This comment, shows that he was a weak one. Every fact I learn about Yoko makes me hate her more and more.

  • but that's John's fault, not Sean

    Sean said that he will be pleased about recording with his brother....

    they're cool guys XD

  • I know that John's and Yoko's actions are not Sean's fault. I NEVER SAID IT WAS IN MY COMMENT. Julian has always mantained he loves his brother and they have no problems between them. My comment was about the difference in how the two brothers were treated and how bad that must have been for Julian to have to be made futher aware of the difference between his realtionship with his father and Sean's.

  • Julian & Cynthia = class acts all the way.

    I will never give Yoko the benefit of the doubt ever again. I'm a little wary of Sean too; what's he going to do with John's legacy once Yoko is gone? Hopefully not treat Julian as crappy as Yoko has.

  • julian's less spoiled cos his mother was down to earth yoko was and is a manipulative bitch

  • @lyndono72 Yoko was and always will be a money hungry slut.

  • And what was John?

  • John most likely would leave Yoko for Cynthia because Yoko so ug###

  • Comment removed

  • Yeah, I saw that one where he's on the beach being interviewed. I'll never forget him saying that "I can't say that he was much of a great human being neither" however he still has some hostility in him. John Lennon was taken away too soon. He was literally getting his life back in order. The chilling part is Double Fantasy reflects it so well and interviews before to his death. So full of life. I swear to god Yoko was getting on John's nerves. I strongly believed he would have dumped her.

  • You have to hunt this interview down here on youtube. Taken December 6th, 1980 for the BBC. I bootleged it off youtube and burned it to cd in my car. Maybe I read too much into it but he kept saying "Stop it" to Yoko. He would have seen what a witch she was. I promise you. Him trying to keep a level head gave him her. Stardom must suck. Seriously!

  • I think so too. He still had a lot of growing up to do.

  • I bet your are right. Infact you are right. Cynthia Lennon wrote a book with such detail as to how Yoko never liked Julian.

  • if you think abou it it makes sense why yoko would not really like julian..he is the son of another love.. i think its kinda obvious.

  • wendel88: another reason Yoko wouldn't be too fond of Julian is that she is afraid he'll claim something from John's estate, like money or mementos, and she doesn't want to give those to anyone but Sean. That Sean and Julian have such a good relationship is awesome, but Julian has every reason not to trust Yoko at all.

  • Yeah but classy people go to court and have visitation rights given and they actually use them. I gave you a thumbs up. lol I don't think John would care about what Yoko wanted. If he wanted to see his son, he would have. John was a druggy.

  • I often wondered about that myself, why John wouldn't just go visit his son once in a while. And while they did do heroin at one time, they eventually got clean. But after reading Cynthia's book, Fred Seaman's & May Pangs book (both assistants to the Lennon's), I think it was a little more complicated. John did somewhat think the world revolved around him & hated to be recognized, felt unsafe in crowds., would've had to take a private jet. Yoko ran the finances, plus kept psychics, numerologists

  • & astrologers on the payroll & ran their lives accordingly. If she told him that Mars was in retrograde & he shouldn't go out, he wouldn't go out. (It didn't seem to do much good. Why didn't she tell him not to go out on Dec. 8th??) Many hurdles would have to have been jumped for him to actually travel to see Julian.

  • I have more respect for Julian than his spoiled brat little brother, who has no talent at all.....I will give Sean this much though, he looks more like his dad than Julian....

  • Not if I see you first.

  • He sounds less like John now that he's older and his voice has deepened and now we can see how he looks a lot like Cynthia. Of course, he's now 6 years older than John ever lived.

  • he has such a great voice..

    I can't explain it.

    like I can't explain Johns.

    though John had more of the "liverpool sound" of course..

  • simply sad

  • Myabe the mafia, CIA, and pro Castro Cubans killed him. Where do people come up with this stuff.

  • It's a shame John never treated Julian with respect. Julian seems like a cool dude.

  • Julian miss you babe.

  • Julian you are the actual one who sounds closest to your dad...John Lennon was way ahead of his time and his music will always be part of the human concience..

  • while i agree with that ... dhani is scary close to his pop too..

  • i  love you jullian lennon cynthia

  • Wow how clever. You deserve a pat on the back.

  • PORTUGAL!! haha

  • Could listen to his lovely voice all the time!

  • you gotta love the guy, would like him to make a noise again and it wont be another" in the shadow of his dad "affair it would be his own second coming, oh and im available for melt you heart man on the hill guitar solos,and its not too late for goodbyes

  • Julian is such a sweet person

  • hey jude!

  • love you julian :)

  • Tbh I've always thought of Sean as just ripping off his father, whereas Julian has his own style and I like it.

  • ahhhh julian is sooooo HOT!!!<3

  • Awsome,, he just look like his father...!! but he works so hard in his carrier... Good Job Julian....!! i love U.

  • AWESOME Julian , I hope you see this, We LOVE you man, PEACE!

  • he is so hoooooooot

  • Dude..

    Julian is fucking awesome.

  • Julian is cool. I wish John lennon was my dad. Julian really soundsgood. I remember one song a while back Much too late for goodbye

  • studiocity11: no, you certainly don't wish John Lennon was your father. Listen to Julian talk about being the son of John and how he was neglected by John. Or intimidated by John. No, John Lennon is one man I would never have wanted as my father.

  • I know everyything about John Lennon. He had more drugs in him than a riteaid. Drugs enhance your mind and make your former, smarter self go "bye bye". He left Cynthia for Yoko because Yoko kissed his drug induced selfish ass. John cheated on Yoko too so he must have been planning to divorce her before he was killed. I love the Beatles music but personally, they were twats as people. Pauls a lier.

  • Julian Lennon is Julian Lennon, his father's legacy is all over his voice and talent, but he is another human being ready to show his own original and individual experience, I think He is a great artist alone, his music is from the heart, authentic and full of life, this has nothing to do with his family, or his past, present or future as an icon. God bless you Julian! Make show!

  • Get OFF Julian's back you critical losers and get behind him, support him and buy his stuff...the man is a monster talent waiting to come out....Go for it Julian I have everything you have ever put out...

  • You tell me. @hy do people want to tear Julian down all the time? It's people like you that have prevented him from making any kind of successful career. And it's the same for all kids of music artists. He's not alone. Many who have tried making a career for themselves in music & tried not to point out who their famous parents are do well UNTIL people find out who their parents are. Then this wall of prejudice goes up & all the sudden they are crap. Why is that?! That makes no sense to me.

  • Let me jump in here. 1st of all, Julian didn't get much from his dad's estate until he came to a settlement with Yoko in 1995. He got an undisclosed amount of cash (which from my understanding wasn't very much) & financial rights to some of his dad's songs, of which, he sold a portion of. The man left the music business HIMSELF because he was sick of all the BS. "Saltwater" from his 4th CD, was in the top 5 in other parts of the world. His 5th & 6th CD were/are being released thru his own label.

  • We must be talking about 2 different Julian's; this one has made 5 record albums (6th NOW in the works), worked on the soundtrack of Mr. Hollands Opus & Dave Clark Five's Time, did the voice for the animated David Copperfield, wrote for the musical version of the Lewis Carol poem The Hunting of the Snark & recently produced the Whaledreamers film ~ even if you don't like his voice(& not sure why you wouldn't, as it is eerily like Johns) he is very a talented writer, with a long-time girlfriend.

  • He preserves the Lennon blood alive.

  • actually is perfect. Thanks again

  • No problem, you're welcome.

    I did it really fast though. From memory there's a repeat at the end of >(F Fmi C), which I left out of the post.

    Please get in touch if you think I can help again.

  • hey, jules, I need the chords of I shloud have known! I can't pull it out by ear!

  • I just listened to it...

    Verse: Ami D Dmi x2

    Chorus: F Fmi C G/B Ami G(quick) F Fmi C G/B Ami G (quick) F Fmi C

    I hope that helps.

  • some chords are missed but thanx a lot, I'll make a video soon.

  • I HE WANT!

  • Give us another album, Julien. You're a real talent.

  • He is giving us another new album. Go to myspace-com/julianlennon if you're interested in learning more & read his blogs there. There are also early mixes of 3 new songs to listen to. The album is due out hopefully this Spring. He sent out his CD to distributors this month & is just waiting to hear back. Can't wait! :D

  • USA DVD release coming November 4th 2008!

  • I went to see this in the theater. WOW! Great film! Really makes you think. If you haven't gone & it's playing in your area, you should go check it out!

  • Hey Julian, just watched you on the news here in Oz regarding the whales. They've got this message of you on the news, along with a snippet of that poor little orphan whale named "Collin" which they had to put down.

    Take care dude....

  • I have such respct for Julian... He's great and has his dad's talent IF HE LETS IT ALL OUT

  • He looks like he's ready to burst out laughing at the end?!

  • He probably was. LOL! I saw the interview recently that he did at the same time he filmed this. He was being a real cheeky monkey at the end of that video. hee hee ;) If you've been reading his blogs on MySpace, you'll get that. LOL ;)

  • JulianFan55 where can I get that interview u said so I can see it?....please and thanks 4 being a fan.

  • love ya Julian,youre sweet and hot!!!!!

  • Say, does he even have any kind of relationship w/Sean? Do they see e/o? Do they get along?

  • Yes, he surprised Sean, on his concert tour

    (Sean's), about a year ago and spent a few days with him.

  • Oh yeah...They get along and are actually quite close. :) They even have each other as top friends on their MySpace pages. And, yes, they both really do visit their own pages. They both blog, but Jules blogs more often. He's got an album coming out in addition to this film he co-produced, so he's been keeping us up-to-date on that & other things he's involved in. :)

  • Oh Julian, how I <3 thee.

  • forget his dad for a minute the guy is talented end of,oh yeah and his dad just so happened to be a beatle how friggin sweets that!

  • tremendous respect for ur father's work, he was an very talented artist. im sorry things werent better for u and ur mother, in his regard. but the talent is with in u, u are of his gene's and ur the lucky one to have this talent and a personality way above his, unfortunately u havent have the struggles (sorry not to belittle ur own) but take those struggles in ur life an run with them. let them wash across u, dont force it and ur/his talent will flow. best wishes, cant wait to hit the no 1

  • th86stone, I see you wrote your comment like Jules would be reading this. It's entirely possible...but if you want Jules to REALLY see a comment from you...his MySpace page is the place to be. ;) He frequently visits the page & blogs there.

  • love you john lennon xx

  • I love this kid.

  • Hello Julian, you beautiful darling man ! I love you ! You are so beautiful and wonderful !

  • when he talks he dont sound like john but singing he sounds more

  • huhh hey jules,you ok ??

     looking slick tristan

  • So what's the story on the white feather?? True? (Have a feeling JulianFan knows exactly what this is about.)

  • I think it is true. I've read articles about it from legitimate sources.

  • How likely is it that they read "John" before meeting Julian? :p I had to go back and reread the book to understand the significance of the feather. But you know, as long as it made Julian happy, I'm happy.

  • Huh, what's this I read? White feather...?

  • You'll have to go see Whaledreamers to find out. ;)

  • I will for sure go see it when it finally comes out, but I already found out 'bout the "feather thing".

    Thx much, though.

    ;-)

  • thanks for the info fan

    i was surprised to learn he played drums on his dads walls and bridges album ?

  • You're welcome.  Yes, he did play drums on his dad's Walls and Bridges album. :)

  • "Whale Dreamers" is a eco-documentary film that Jules co-produced. For more info, go to whaledreamers dot com

  • He's talking about a film he co-produced called "Whale Dreamers". And that is an awful thing to say about him. He's actually a very talented music artist in his own right. He's releasing a new album soon and, if you haven't heard it yet, you should check out his 1998 album, "Photograph Smile".

  • least hes out there doing something to help the world,what have u done besides fertilize it?

  • Give us another album, Julien. You're a real talent.

  • He will be soon. Check out his MySpace page. There are some early mixes of some new songs there for listening. ;) I love them all, but "Disconnected" is my fav. :)

  • If that's it,then that's it,isn't it?If it

    says see you there,then it says see you there,and that's it.

  • Sometimes i think about John, when i see Julian! =), he like his father! =)..

  • Wow. Never heard that one before.

  • Yup Julian's just like his father I think. Mostly when he was younger though, but he still sounds just like him.

  • Wow. You're KIDDING! Really? Sheesh.

  • great julian

  • Aye, that song rules. He is so much like his dad but with his own uniqueness (is that actually an existing word ?)

    :D

  • Julian. I just listened to your song "Saltwater". It's a great song. You dad would be proud not only of your music but of your spirit. Keep up the great work and music!

  • It's weird to think that he's already older than John ever got to be. Good to see ya, Jules.

  • Thanks.

  • [im a beatle fan]

    i looked away from the screen and heard him speak and i swore it could have been john

  • oh boy....how you grew up!

  • Julian had made a better contribution then John ever did. By supporting the whales, of course. *laughs and runs*

  • He sounds so much like his dad when he sings, but not when he talks. Just an observation...

  • Julian wasn't raised in Liverpool, so he wouldn't have that Scouse accent!

  • Coincidentally, I think he sounds a teeny bit like Ringo.

  • Ok, so he has a rumbly smoker's voice.

  • I wouldn't say that. Besides, he quit smoking earlier this year...if you didn't know that already. ;)

  • Better late than never, I guess.

  • Wow. JulianFan knows alot about Julian. I guess that's why he's called JulianFan. I guess if he was CherFan or LouisArmstrong fan then he'd probably know more about Cher or Louis Armstrong. I guess.

  • LOL, JulianFan is a "she"!

  • Wow. JulianFan knows alot about Julian. I guess that's why she's called JulianFan. I guess if she was CherFan or LouisArmstrong fan then she'd probably know more about Cher or Louis Armstrong. I guess.

  • Yup! I'm a fan of Julian and proud of it! ;)

  • It was hard for me to figure this out. :)

  • So good to see Julian--I've been looking at old vids of his pops and gettin all sentimental and sad. It's so uplifting to see that a part of John is living on--and rocking on in the great tradition of peace and love. Good boy!

  • Thats beautiful xbeerynst! I agree 100% !!

  • Thats 7 year old Emily Gelineau. Looking forward to the Movie

  • Sounds Great Julian, looking forward to it. Hey you should here Perth Australia 7 year old singing your Saltwater Awesome!!! Must get it to you . Will be on You Tube next week
