Lady GaGa - Imagine (John Lennon Cover)

[Leroy95ism]

I have an odd feeling that people hate this video cuz A) She's bi and different from everyone else (She doesn't conform to the norm..) and B) She sings one song by someone who changed the world while She herself is trying to change the world! If you close minded fools didn't see how beautiful she is and how much she is doing for the world now... I got to say Why the fuck are you even listening? Take your hate somewhere else. -.-

[xGhitax]

Lady gaga... oh god why...

[GaGaSophie]

@LeeSnitchTV @Sk8erBoiWTH95 STOP FIGHTING!

Don't you guys see that the song is about LOVE?

[Sk8erBoiWTH95]

The cover by avril lavigne is much better !

[LeeSnitchTV]

@Sk8erBoiWTH95 Shut your face BITCH!!!!!

Love From LeeLee

[Sk8erBoiWTH95]

@LeeSnitchTV

i´m a boy xD

[LeeSnitchTV]

@Sk8erBoiWTH95 beacuse your a boy people cant call you a bitch?!?!?! HAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA

[Sk8erBoiWTH95]

@LeeSnitchTV

aha u call a boy a bitch?

and u think u are fucking funny, hm?!

no one wants to read your comments

[jakelee90]

what are the chords and lyrics???

[jakelee90]

okay. john would be proud of this. but i'm gonna listen to john's rather than this.

[Blink1Katie234]

@XxCutexPupzxX Actually, John Lennon owns this song.

[MrTheJulio896]

vaya mierda no sabe cantar esta cancion lady gaga

[Dimafyx]

@XxCutexPupzxX no one cares :p

[LittleEnchancerCat]

Can you do what LADY GAGA did????

she was amazing in singing this song!!

DUMBSHIT!!

[LussiA7X]

This is beautiful and this sing is interpretate with passion. ♥

[xmfdibujito]

This is much better than Miley Cyrus covering Smells like teen spirit, Lady Gaga, in some way, feels more real

[corneliamagic]

Lady GaGa is the queen of pop and J.Lennon is a very veery very very (...) good singer-songwriter!!!!!!!!

La dy GaGa you are the best forever!<3

[tutothebest]

Mejor hace el cover avril lavigne arriba los dedos :)

[babywabyabc]

Did anyone else pick up on the cords from her song "Speechless" in the middle? True talent :-)

[iEatYourBrains13]

It kinda sucked at first, I gotta admit.But it's not that bad.

[elianarenjifo]

isn't the song...is the message, i see many deaf people that neither listening the song, understand...that is sad

[Jasonxknot]

She's got a good voice, but A Perfect Circle's version is better

[Beatzeppe]

No one will ever sing this like lennon did

[redneckdipper1337]

I actually prefer this method of her singing.It's quite nice.

[xiTzXELiTE]

WTF?! This bitch just ruined it..

[invader891]

i dont think anyone can sing this right eccept john lennon himself

[TonyJasta]

this is a very difficult song to make a cover

[Irresistibleapple08]

I love this cover, I think that Gaga is awesome...

[qt00pi]

@juliemissdance kiss muah azz, I voiced an opnion on a song and you gotta get defensive and thorw an insult towards me instaed of the comment tells me one damm thing ... Im right. you're to personally connected to an image who doesnt even know your name to care how f***ing stupid you're being. People are still human, no one person fits perfectly everywhere .. sad fact of life, get use to it.

[roflmoomywafflemoo]

your in denial if you said this sucked. sure its not as perfect as johns people but she can sing and play the piano. the song is about peace and love and all you guys do is make hatred towards her and completely ignore the songs message. shame on you.

[panos8701]

avril lavigne imagine cover the best!!!

[MissTMx]

Lady Gaga is overrated.

[Mezzza]

i really like gaga, but i think "imagine" is the kind of song that can't be covered

[loserkidbecky]

If you don't like Lady Gaga why are you listening to a Lady Gaga cover? Blows my mind. Are you looking for things to hate on because you genuinely have no life or...?

[FluXez00]

@loserkidbecky No this was in the sidebar of the actual video by John Lennon and Oh my I seen the cover by Lady Gaga. And I don't know I think she should just continue with making her own music.

[KyoCatLove]

@loserkidbecky people came to see how badly she'd suck at singing it...and was pissed off the find she sang it very well. So in their anger, put stupid hate comments.

[loserkidbecky]

@KyoCatLove Hahaha yeah I guess so :')

[joebulls1]

oh lord, STOP!!

[ComplicatedRissa]

Ew

[RideRidePonyRideRide]

This is beautiful.

[NerdyBirdy9978]

Okay, obviously this isn't as good as the original. But thats because the original was sung by JOHN LENNON! But, that being said, Lady Gaga is great, and if you truly loved and respected the lyrics of this amazing song, you wouldn't feel the need to post theses nasty comments!

[oolostoo13]

She has a horrible voice and didn't play the piano well. She can go fuckity fuck herself. The type of music she sings is what is killing rock and peace itself and she goes on and sings this. I'm disgusted, this world has gone to shit.

[AjaEmo]

@oolostoo13 She is quite talented if you ask me. Perhaps you don't like Lady Gaga, but really? She isn't "killing rock and peace itself." No one and NOTHING can kill rock. Rock will live on and one FOREVER. As for peace? Are you not wrecking the peace by saying such hateful things? Express your opinion, just don't be an ass about it.

[MusicAteMyHeart1]

@oolostoo13 She has an amazing voice, also.. She played the piano wonderfully, not everyone can play one instrumental alone and sing well. Also, with the comment you just made, you're showing the opposite with the meaning of this song.

[dancer6266]

@oolostoo13 Born this Way is a song that says you are perfect the way you are. That's ruining world peace?

[DrakeGrad]

Blasphemy

[TheLittlemonsterlove]

She makes her voice so unique. She is beautiful mentally and physically. This song reminds me of her so much. I love her.

[PTlovesTH]

this song is about not hating and you're all hating on gaga

[muffin466]

do you guys think john lennon would be proud of you hating lady gaga for doing a cover of his song. its not as good as john's version but that doesnt mean im going to hate gaga for singing it and i think she did a good job and i also think lennon would be proud of gaga. think of peace and love people even if they made a bad mistake.

[KikiXcupcake]

fuck lady gaga -.- wtf she is ''a metal lover'' and she sings pop and she looks like a fucking witch -.-

[oohhhyyeeaahhh]

I don't think it's fair to compare a female singers voice to John Lennon's.I do like the original better,but you have to admit she has a good voice,and I think she nailed it.I don't believe people would hate on it nearly as much if it weren't for her flamboyant image lol.

[Nickolsshady12345]

of course it's not as good as Lennon's, rarely do covers surpass the original songs. I find this a suprisingly good cover and it kinda changed my opinion about lady gaga. And her voice is actually not bad at all

[kemolegend907]

@Misslizz10210 true, but also wouldn't be happy that someone as money and attention hungry as her is singing a song that, I'm pretty sure she's just singing for the publicity

[AnIntelligentThought]

@kemolegend907 You obviously don't know jack about Gaga if you think she's money hungry. She's trolling the music industry, and using what publicity that she gets to make social statements. And since you personally didn't know Lennon, who are you to make statements about what he would or wouldn't be happy about?

[JamesDeanKr]

does the voice kill you? then Die ! dIe diE ! nobody care :)

I love this cover more ! the voice get the Grammy !

[Zatops]

this is so horrible i could kill myself. i just. john lennon would not be happy with this.

[Mwilson1066]

@Zatops Im glad you know exactly what he would/would not be happy with.

[Psichopat68]

Just ... crap !

(i'm sorry but she doesn't sing well here...)

Give us John Lennon back, and we give you Justin Bieber & Lady Gaga !

[xplr64]

Different interpretation but a good one. Honest to her nature.

[dargothefargo88]

Better then John <3

[WitchyBat]

I BELIEVE HE and Lady Gaga would do this together! YOU people dont know Lennon you only IMAGINE you do!

[RileySkye100]

Lennon would trash her if he was still alive. Believe me. He would.

[sandycheeks0345]

@RileySkye100 Sorry, That is everything this song doesn't stand for~

[KikiXcupcake]

she ruined this beautiful song :(

[KanyeezyHipHop]

love the lyrics to this.

[MissLizz10210]

i don't think John would be happy with all this hate floating around in these comments..

[RainfallFantasy]

@MissLizz10210 To be frank I agree.

[Mastercraftium]

She is way too flat when she sings this song.

[IntoxicatedPiggies]

I saw "Imagine". Good song so I went to it, heard her first word, paused it, I can already tell it won't end well. Go Lennon!!!

[dustin12360]

Welldone lady gaga with this cover

[raintalonwindclan]

Good, but DEFINITELY not as good as Lennon.

[ginanugent]

Only a true Atheist gets the fact that the true message of this song is that nobody is in heaven besides clouds. What a sad distortion of one of the best songs ever.

[lilbunnyaline123]

DON'T LIKE IT

LENNON IS THE ONLY THAT COULD SING THIS

[techdudezz]

This wud've been gr8 if it didn't SUCK so much!! :-/

[Subliminallll]

I absolutely love Gaga, BUT...I can't stand it when people don't play the same chords Lennon plays during the middle 8th ''You may say I'm a dreamer'' those chords are the ones that really pull me in emotionally, they're essential!

[MimiHatesYou]

i hate lady gaga, i really do!!

but this cover is..well i really like :D

i think it's not perfect but..when she sings like that her voice is much better than in songs like...oouh whatever :D you all now songs by lady gaga ;)

(sorry, i think my english isn's very nice :D)

[waseem336]

imagine....... ra ra ra r a.. romamama

[rekoonsghjkl]

Great cover . I think she's great got everything except I just don't find her on music great.

[mattop1000]

LADY GAGA MAKES JOHN LENNON SONGS BROKEN

[DrJeckell100]

Why are you people so mean to mother monster

I think she did great, I think it's because you're all to used to hearing john lennon sing it is why you're not giving Lady GaGa a chance, I personally think Mother monster did a good job, I heard the emotion in her voice, And i loved it. I hope to see her one day in concert and hopefully she sings this song. But I'm not saying i didn't love the john lennon version, I did love it.

[RussMaxable]

Terrible cover, no connection with the words, hollow.

[Plexipeanut54]

I'd never heard of Matthew Shepard before today but i read his wikipedia page and it shocked me. He was attacked on my birthday, died on my sister birthday and was killed in Laramie, where my brother named Matthew was born. Crazy...

[qt00pi]

That's proabably why I put the ? at the end of the sentence, to be completly honest, I don't care that much, but my ears heard the original , and when he sang the song, you could hear the 'feel' in it, lady gaga is commercial, her 'feel' belong to sex toys and rock and roll, she doesn't belong here.

[slayerette86m]

@qt00pi I think you got this chick all wrong. She means well. Regardless if she's commercial or indie, music is music. She's just created an image of herself, and that image lives on through her music and will make her long lasting. She has a good heart. I dig Gaga.

[MiloRavenV]

love gaga but she is not lennon

[qt00pi]

I think John was originally referring to the apostle Matthew and not the Matthew Shappard listed above ? and yea, she totally ruined it

[goldmedal2]

@qt00pi ... Really... Lennon never talked about a Matthew in the original lyrics, Lady GaGa added it the reference as a tribute to Matthew Sheppard's mom fights for equality... How can you pretend that she ruined it if you even doesn't know the original lyrics?

[Serena2009ification]

@goldmedal2

Yes, the original lyrics were 'above us only sky'. The reference to Matthew was a tribute that Lady GaGa threw in herself.

[WitchyBat]

@qt00pi HELLO NO RELIGION...John was not religous HE wasnt talking about anyh Bible Matthew, AND she made it her own and she did a great job too! approx 2:26 she starts into HER own words mixed with his....and thats UPDATED ! To work for her and what shes about!

[juliemissdance]

@qt00pi you are a waste of oxygen.

[goldmedal2]

@VintageRoseGarland Yay that too!

[iWillDestroyYou2012]

Reminds me of Yoko's cover for Imagine.

[hellopepsable]

I doubt any of you could belt out a note like that in front of thousands. I know I couldn't! But listen to this woman singing her heart out! It's very beautiful if you ask me.

[KitKatChocolateGir]

WAT THE HELL. Lady GaGa totally ruined it!!!!! That weirdo taking ova John Lennon's precious music??? NO WAY. She sings it horrible too. John Lennon can sing it the best anybody can. NOBODY can beat him on his own beautiful music. Lady G. ruined it. Totally ruined it. Ugh, a horrible pop singer singing Imagine? NO. Im sorry, but seriously, NO. And all rights, ALL RIGHTS, go to john lennon u git. Im sorry but that's my opinion. I'm not a hater, ok?

[goldmedal2]

@KitKatChocolateGir Owkayyyy kit lolkat ! -_-

[hellopepsable]

@KitKatChocolateGir Excuse me for butting in on your little rampage but if you hate Lady GaGa so freakin much why don't you type in "John Lennon Imagine" And stop hating on one of the world's most successful artists? It would be much appriciated :)

[ClaudiaMcChaos]

@KitKatChocolateGir totally not a hater. why can you accept that a pop singer is touched by Lennon's genius?

[04aawood]

@KitKatChocolateGir

so song about peace, love and acceptance etc.

and your first thought is to critacise the cover, to take the same tone as you, cool story dick.

[tcb11661]

SHE RUINED IT , BOTTOM LINE !!! IT AS ALWAYS .. BELONGS TO JOHN LENNON

[maryfers23]

NO! ALL RIGHT GO TO JOHN LENNON!!

[goldmedal2]

@maryfers23 Did John Lennon take the picture that illustrate the video?

[Serena2009ification]

@goldmedal2 No...unfortuantely, he passed away a long time ago. It was a cold-blooded murder and he died tragicallyl long before his time. :( But his legacy lives on in his son, his fans, and his music.

[Serena2009ification]

@goldmedal2 Oh, I just realized that you meant that rhetorically, not literally. :P In that case, then rights should also go to the photographer as well as John and GaGa. Unless GaGa took it herself, which seems unlikely but is hypothetically possible. But in any case, it's redundant because this all violates copyright anyway.

[HoleHeadedLiar]

I hate Lady Gaga, and I love John Lennon.

But, you know what? This isn't half bad. For once, she is actually playing and singing something. And what she is singing and playing isn't over-produced, vacuous, useless, pop music.

It ain't perfect, but I'm sure Lennon would like it. I certainly do.

[ThatsWhatTheManWants]

I'm sorry this is really bad

[rxe6fe3c]

Of course worse than Electric Kiss.

But that's normal with covers.

[MarkPMus]

Well done, Lady GaGa, singing what has to be said. Not perfect, but Lennon's live versions weren't. That's what make it a real-life experience of music, and more believable for that. Give me this over Nicky Minaj and some spoilt pukey kid on Ellen any day of the week.

[bonjourrrmerel]

I think it's not that bad.

I'm not a fan of Lady Gaga, but I don't hate her.

John Lennon <3

[VWman100]

She can't even hit the right notes on the singing. The piano playing was beautiful however..

[satmedown]

@Anthonyesel I don't have a problem with the song. I love Lennon. That's not what i said. I just don't like lady gaga. I'm for peace too. Read ur comments thoroughly before u respond.

[ichigodecolombia]

fuck the bitch its a precious song only for the best ones THE BEATLES and also sing like hell suck my dick bitch show some respect

[JohnAnthonyyy]

@ichigodecolombia haha i love how you use the word "respect" I'm pretty sure calling her a bitch and telling her to suck your dick is not very respectful.

[LieSHasz]

to speechless her other song i mean u might not like it but this was like a year afte she came out so her voice is still developing i mean u dont have to like it im just making a point:) so i

[LieSHasz]

matthew was a refence to matthew shepard who died becuse hes was gay and the only reason so seemed so mad was becuase people arent treated right and she want equality for everybody and shes theater so shes has to traits of broadway people im talking about perfance and it has a resemblence

[przemko924]

dislike cuz it`s lady gaga

[ThePaperFalcon]

I'm a fan of Lady Gaga, and this is not good. Being a fan doesn't mean being fair-weathered and not having a brain of your own and being unable to judge bad from good. It means loving someone meaning you don't always agree, but love the person regardless. That is life. I consider anything else being phony.

[19TheMadHatter07]

sto cazzo

[ItalianoFiore]

I like Lady Gaga.. But, not singing this song. No one does it like John. <3

[AmberSkye917]

Lady Gaga and John Lennon actually have a lot of similarties. Of course the original is always better but she did really good<3 i love this version

[westonmana]

Matthew? Is that... um... in Lennon's lyrics? I think not.

[andipoetic]

This is very appropriate considering Lady Gaga's views

[splogy123]

FFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUU­UUUUUU

[satmedown]

She doesn't deserve to sing this song. Lady Gaga isn't even a fraction of a songwriter or entertainer as John Lennon.

[AnthonyEsel]

@satmedown she doesnt deserve to dream about peace? she agrees with john lennon and she wants to pass the message to the world. and if you take some time and read the lyrics of her songs youll realize is not rubish, they have a lot of meaning and from them she passes her dreams for a better world to her fans

[kuteemi]

i love GaGa voice.......beautiful voice!!!

[ellsroxanne]

Oh god.. Please stop doing that GaGa

[LiorGroove]

Bitch stop singing!

Even the greatest song she made to fucking bullshit!

[rosalielove11]

I love her, she's AMAZING. Her voice gives me a shiver down my spine. Everything she does makes me adore her more and more.

To people that say she doesn't have the right voice for this song - I'd like to see you get up on stage and sing it while playing the piano.

[shesbaldbutiwould]

shes taking the piss yeh?

[jeramy94ga]

she doesnt have the right vocie tone 4 this song

[MisterGagaEmilio]

@jeramy94ga And you know something about music? hahah!

[kaitlin2515]

only Matthew in the sky?

[katrin99verified]

no, no, no

[ChiefSmakAHoe7]

ruined a great songs

[BubbleGumDexter23]

@ChiefSmakAHoe7 Its stands for all the original stood for. You must be stupid cause both are amazing. He'd love it!

[lucymarielightning]

Original is always better.

[Voinny]

'I love this version. It's really beautiful.

[TheJeffmcqueen]

she wants silence like he did,,,,,not fighting and war!!!!imagine is beautiful and enlightenment....i love john lennon...there will be no other!!!!!ty john for gracing us with your voice and love while you could until your sad demize...lady gaga gets it too....

[JexJalex]

I love that a major icon is singing another major icon's song :)

[dgcsm54]

I saw her sing this at the hrc dinner and it was better in person

[seanbuer]

Funny how so many new "Artists" cover this song.. Yet you never hear it on the radio... Miss you, John Lennon.. the world still needs you..

[ITSMENIKKl]

@seanbuer the radio doesn't play covers, only originals..but i agree with your comment regardless. :)

[hoothering]

But of course I like the original version better.

[hoothering]

I love the Beatles more than Lady Gaga but I love Gaga more than John Lennon.

[errolivia]

'Imagine' is an amazing song, and I love hearing all different versions/covers of it!! People get so negative when someone covers songs by iconic people (egJohnLennon) but I think when someone covers a song its a compliment to the original singer/songwriter, its not like they're trying to be that person.... if that makes sense! They're just showing they're love and admiration for them.

[tootalo]

at least now we know lady gaga has good inspiration

[5431marie]

I like the cover, i wish she wouldnt change the lyrics though, its not your song.

[MarissaRussell]

this is so beautiful, I wish I'd heard this cover before I made mine...I think I would've changed it up a bit more. this song has such a beautiful message<3

[iamthecooltype]

@ObamaDNigg :D hahhah!

[bonslywizard]

519 people evidently don't even understand the song. You 519 people are exactly the reason this song was written. And you think you're the "real" supporters of the message this song sends? Please.

[emo2151]

ewww!??



[OmgitsTea]

Plus, she is not singing straightly from the lyrics of John Lennon Imagine written in 1971. She is making the song more relevant to times: gay marriage and such. If you're a true John Lennon lover, and you believe he is a role model, you wouldn't spread hate.

[OmgitsTea]

I don't see why people are criticizing her cover of this song, it's beautiful and i think if John Lennon was still alive ( rest in paradise <3) he would be happy that someone who really believed in peace and equality is covering his song. John Lennon wouldn't want people hating on the artist that's covering his song, even if in your opinion it's bad,

[RedSceneStudio]

nice one illuminati.. good song. Very good! awesome!

[aislinncutie678]

i luv this i luv gaga i luv lennon it isnt america anymore no that i think of it america wasnt really free at all just my opinion:)

[JustDanceBabyx]

I got serious goosebumps when listening to this : )

[LoveOfLife26]

I wanted to hear the remakes of Imagine cuz its like my favorite song ever. So I clicked here. I LUV JOHN LENNON!!!!! Not gaga. But I sat through it. She SCREWED IT UP!!!! Shy did she need to sound so mad when she sang it, ITS ABOUT PEACE!!!! SOUND CALM NOT PISSED!!!!!! And WATS up with the new parts?!?!?!?!?!?! She killed it!!!!!! :*(

[HinataUzimaki89]

Why is there all this hate on a song about peace? I mean seriously people need to shut the fuck up. Dont like it Dont listen its that easy

[IJormungandI]

Sure people, all fight about a Peace song

that really makes sense !! good job

[iamthecooltype]

Lady Gaga? Doing a John Lennon Cover... For the song Imagine...

Fuck no... -.-

[andromedarr]

@iamthecooltype Fuck you haters....i loathe the normal music gaga makes too, but these covers proove that she can sing. She is a great artist, she mostly just does the wrong thing.

[iamthecooltype]

@andromedarr Fuck yourself. I'm not a hater but I don't think that this is very good.

That's just my opinion, which I'm entitled to have, by the way.

[ThePaperFalcon]

@iamthecooltype No no no you are not. This is America. We don't believe in freedom of speech sonny.
