He was dead 6 years before I was even an idea for a name picked from a baby book. But I can honestly say I miss John Lennon. Our souls may not have existed at the same time but I truly believe I would be an even better person if he were still around. Miss you John. Awesome song by the way.
Even though I consider John to be my "Third Favorite Beatle", this song is one of the best Beatles solo efforts ever. Definitely needs to be heard by more people...
What`s wrong with some pointed discourse about what is itself a political song? So long as we dont attack each other; this is a song that compels us to think about the role of state and the economic and political establishment. Free people means free to live life without excessive political interference or economic greed. John would certainly have agreed with this.
WE NEED TO LINE UP AND SING THIS SONG TO OUR OWN GOVERNMENT AND THE CROOKED BANKING SYSTEM, HEALTH CARE SYSTEM AND FOOD INDUSTRY "WE WANT OUR FUCKIN' COUNTRY BACK!!!
not sure if we should line the White House with guns or not, the song kinda goes against that, but the "Huey" in says we should!!!
This song is anti-Illuminati. People back then didn't know what he was talking about, but this generation does. This song is beyond government corruption. It's about corruption the world over.
John Lennon is a man of peace and for ever he'll say it to the human race: give peace a chance.So, if you want to know the real Lennon and the crest of his soul you gotta listen songs like Old Dirt Road, It's So hard, Isolation, Remember.
anti-abortion????? What are you talking about? It's about human beings on this planet who are already here under the thumb of invading, murdering governments...
When John sang about government leaving people the heck alone, I doubt he envisioned a government that controlled the banks, automakers and threatened to throw people in jail for not having healthcare. Do you think John would have supported Obama for sending more troops to Afghanistan? It's ridiculous to think it's all about those "evil" Republicans. WAKE UP NEO!
@ToMegaTherion718, The problem is that u have it ass backwards, it is the banks, financial sector, pharmaceutical & health care companies that control the gov't. Not the other way around.
When the US gov't is more inclined 2 give welfare 2 corporations & the judicial system 2 give corporations rights that even citizen have in limitation there is a fundamental problem.
The media represents the "Tea Party" as a grass roots movement! Like the billions in secret corporate funding were grass root.
Have to ask my local Tea Party where our corp funding is. No doubt there are groups that would love to control us, I'm doing my part to keep it honest, and focussed. I believe in Life Liberty and the Pursuit of Happiness. If Adam and Steve want to get married, that's cool. If you want to smoke a joint on your front porch when you get home from work, that's all right with me too. Want to pat me down, search me without a warrant? "F" that! End the Patriot Act! Ron Paul 2012!
@ToMegaTherion718 Don't bother asking. "Citizens United" (Court Case) eliminated all mandatory disclosure, so corporations had free reign to pump $ into whatever interests they saw fit without anyone knowing, the Tea Party fit the bill. Why do you think all these conservative campaign finance machines outspent Dems 10 to 1? These weren't $5 contributions from Joe Citizen. On the other side Obama tried adhering to his ideals by sticking to his disclosed small contributions from '08 NAIVE.
Because the republicans like Nixon hated him he had to die. He had too much influence on people and challenged the right-wing's utter bullshit. Deportation wasn't going to work.....
Coincidence that his killer, RFK's, Reagan's assassin and Marilyn Monroe all had the same psychologist with ties to the CIA? I can see you did some homework. You're right. Keep up the good work, can't get one by you! Thanks.
I agree my friend. Look at history: everyone who told us to live together in love and harmony got killed. Hence why Lennon is dead and that greedy "phony" and "hypocrite" McCartney is alive.....

It's a shame that this song is unknown to the wider public, outside of John's fans. This is the kind of song everyone needs to hear.

i think lennons messages are timeless -- but sure is that some societies do not wanna be freed or have a different view of freedom --
i wonder what lennon would have said about the claim for "freedom to wear burka"???
