John Lennon - Mother

[ulysses1904]

I remember when I was 11 and the FM station in Poughkeepsie played this entire album when it first came out (minus Working Class Hero). I will never get tired of it.

[WhiteFloydz]

he was hunted by this all is life

[HELLYEAHF00]

I'm posting this on my mom's Facebook wall...

[TheEvie87]

[pennylane342]

[13ringz]

Well then I now understand why Steve jobs listened to this song... If you don't know what I'm talking about read the Steve jobs biography, as I am now

[Lukes964]

Happy Birthday mom! :D

[chingchangchongfly]

@9501dannyboy LOL

[godaameet1]

John Lennon always and always best.

[ele523]

That scream full of pain for his mother and the love that was just starting for them! He loved his mother so much she put the guitar in his hands and made him the John Lennon we all know and love. God bless you Julia Lennon and John Lennon one of a kind.

[themorokkan]

full of pain.

Most of you don't know what I mean.

[chingchangchongfly]

@themorokkan What a childish comment. Who are you to tell anyone what they know or don´t know? Or what they have suffered?

[sleepybom]

My mother died 30 years ago.

now my daughter is mother of children.

[TheDrdaneeka]

Stop being idiots. It's a great song. There's no need to feel the same as he did to enjoy it.

[chingchangchongfly]

@TheDrdaneeka It is absolutely a great song. In my opinion, one of his top five.

[punk8lives6on]

So I have a good mother and father. But this song still touches me and makes me cry. So sad. Poor John.

[donutswithsprinkes]

I freaking love this song.

[CapnPicard]

I had a shitty mom, that left us. I still do this day don't understand how a mother can leave her children. I guess those are the breaks. lol

[mimmenbacker]

say it is not very big, say it is unique in the world is big ..ciao John

[TheSayHelloWorld]

....Still got shivers down my Spine!

[TheScottrocks9]

John is definitely a great screamer.

[MrBudgieman1]

incredible song, incredible album

[NotoriousBillyG]

I like reading these comments, all so peaceful and friendly. John Lennon's words "give peace a chance" are lived even here through a youtube video ^.^

[bamboosa]

Depressing? DEPRESSING? Who are you, Beaver Cleaver from the perfect world? 2/3 of the humans on this planet could relate to this song in one way or another. This is sheer beauty.

[StiggyBassMan]

[findemaxa13]

this song is SO DEPRESSING. poor John.

I dont now why but tears couldnt stop,and you know what.

It felt great. Because i suddenly realised that i have got a wonderful Mom .

Who loves me and support me in hard times, now i will care of her I'm so grateful to her because she made me what I am today,... If you feel lonely i just wanna say you

Love to your self and then... people will love you. You are never alone.

I love you all. <3 <3 <<3

[mikemummey1]

[nebrpo]

[JANISTAR07]

[RojotheRed]

Just lost my mother a week ago. My father also left me. this song makes me bawl.

[222Lightning]

@RojotheRed Sorry for your loss. Shes not really Dead. We go back to a very special place when you and I die. Its not in the sky, its here you just can't see it. I've met my grandfather, grandmother and Father in dreams. Know one can convince me they were just dreams.

[RojotheRed]

@222Lightning Youve reached-out in space and have given me a small bit of healing. Bless you

[Zapple03]

Goodbye... good byyyye.....

...all those years ago, 1970, and it sounds Exactly the same. 

The Dream is over....

"...and that's REALITY....."

[ssw21]

oh me oh my

come home......

[broodyart]

Is that how julian felt?

[woojaffa]

@broodyart It's not really the same situation. John wasn't around for Julian growing up and then left Cynthia for Yoko and didn't really see Julian again, which is pretty bad.

But John's mother had an affair and his parents asked John to choose between them when he was 4. He first chose his father, but couldn't bare seeing his mother walk away and ran after her, only to be given to his aunt Mimi and rarely see Julia before she died when John was 17.

The lyrics of this song make so much sense.

[unionofthesnake17]

is the most beatiful and sad song of the history

[musicfreak405]

This song breaks my heart and if you want to know why John had so much anger, just look at his childhood. His father and mother did not want him and his art was used as a form of therapy on this album. It is like reading his diary!

[MichalFokt]

@musicfreak405 True, he really poured his soul to this album, although it maybe wasn´t as hard with his mother as you say. It´s only a pity that he did similar thing to his first son, being apart of him for many years (partly because of Yoko)...

[666metallalcolica666]
