John Lennon Interview 1975 with Tom Snyder 1.5

[thpriest15]

4:20 Right when they're talking about drugs... how appropriate :P

[mccartneylennon4]

The crazy thing about this interview is while talking about drugs and speaking against them Tom is smoking! John has done so as well in interviews. It hurts the message.

[tabbylucys]

Poor ringo! Xxxxx

[JerichoDitch2]

a putz interviewing a legend

[brainsareus]

john was great,and snyder was such a stiff ponderous jerk.

[PineappleStories]

JOHN IS AND ALWAYS WILL BE A HERO!

[JofistDowd]

John Lennon & Anton Chigurh

[thirdperiodpain]

The interviewer is a complete drag.

[lzrman134]

Beatles were and ARE the best!

[jdwalker122]

@ringbolt9 shove it up your ass bieber fan

[ringbolt9]

love tom i never saw the talent with the beatles really sorry guys and they turned alot of kids oin to drugs by glamorizing it prima donnas who couldnt handle success and broke up.

[brainsareus]

@ringbolt9 ur crazy,tom is an idiot. they[the beatles,esp lennon] were agaisnt the trappings of "success", and bullshit capitalist bux. art is not about money[only], you misguided douche! you're values suck,u fool. that's why they made great art,it was not about money, or staying together. GMAFB.

[AndyLynchAus]

I love how Tom Snyder Lights up a cigarette while talking about addictions.. lol

[TheDellanator]

John handled the questions very good. Interviewer is a dumbass

[BrightsideMovement]

i love how hes smoking a cigarette trying to talk down to lennon

[Hollyweed1]

Hey Johnny Depp looks a bit like John Lennon, do you guys agree... just a thought.

[TheDellanator]

@Hollyweed1 No. They both good looking but don't look anything alike

[Hollyweed1]

@TheDellanator Then you suck at making distinction!

[TheDellanator]

@Hollyweed1 how? They both look very different. meaning that I am good in distinction and you obviously suck at it since you think they look similar.

[simplygr]

Think of Whitney Houston and Amy Winehouse

[brentisverycool]

hounding John about marijuana use while he smokes a cig... the definition of hypocrisy 

[spicecrop]

Fucking typical American hypocrite , trying to get John to tell people to not smoke pot while he puffs on his cigarette which is much worse for your health then smoking pot.Just like today all these drugs that are legal and the doctors are handing out like drug pushers for the big pharma companies.And these drugs cause serious health problems and can kill you but as long as the government gets it's share and the FDA is making it's cash , everything is fine, But smoking pot is illegal and so bad?

[tsiallie]

it's funny how he's ripping on people who do dope while he's smoking a cigarette

[Renneskid]

this guy was doing his, he was famous for hard-hitting interviews, you can't deny that this is a very good interview.

[LermanProductions]

Is there a part 2 of this video or something? I want to see the rest of the interview! Also, I LOVE JOHN LENNON!!! ...and hate the stupid conservative interviewer.

[liamMCR]

I love you John

[BeatleManiaForver99]

Wow stupid interviewer shouldnt talk to him about drugs. He was famous for his music an personality and life, not drugs, dumbass. Pay attention to the point!

[Jwest720]

Fuck the war on the drugs. Lennon is right. Kids have to make their own choice and learn for themselves. I smoke pot, but it's not because famous people inspired me. It's because I tried it and liked it. Anyone who is anti-marijuana needs to pull the stick out of their ass.

[84Latty]

This pig-headed yank is almost interrogating Lennon here. Very little focus on success.

[joel522276]

snyder! fuck you! john lennons right when he calls you a nicontein addict.

[bluetic7]

isnt it ironic how he lights up a cigarette when bitching about illegal drugs when cigarettes are far worse for you then weed

[cwaimtehrians]

"You may say that I'm a dreamer, but I'm not" - John Lennon

[smallpotatoes989]

john did provoke american people. people do not like people to come and tell what to do.

[smallpotatoes989]

snyder is such moron. he bitchs about illegal drugs and then he smokes cigarets. sold out fucking bitch, probably has a lot of commercials for alcho too. fucking rat

[smallpotatoes989]

snyder is a fucking cunt!

[jcraigb]

Damn Snyder loves a cigarette

[roastbeast79]

John Lennon is...wow there's just not a good enough word to describe him

[jasminhotel]

fuck french psychic

[TheMorrisonjohn]

I love how John Lennon answers his difficult questions, he always knew how to handle difficult situations, John Lennon is the man.

[ShredGuitarAcademy]

My favorite part is when Tom is asking him about drugs and the influence on the youth while smoking a cigarette. Did anyone not smoke on TV in the 60's and 70's? Every single old interview I see it's everywhere. Hilarious.

[ThePardi10]

R.I.P both of you!

[myraxg]

"There is an illusion that just because somebody buys youre record theyre gonna do what you tell them, it doesn't work that way"

YES!!!

[bullough8]

John Lennon is my hero.

[LQ2DARESQ]

This fucking prick is badgering Lennon for smoking pot and he pulls out a cigarette mid-interview. Biggest cunt ever.

[tantotonto]

What a prat! Complete wasted opportunity for a classic interview: Lennon on great form, and seemingly in a very good mood. Instead the interviewer keeps on with the most tedious questions about drugs. Shame!

[TheYogscastFTW]

What a prick (the interviewer)

[steven3662]

hes talking to john like john lennon doesnt no what hes talking about....

[steven3662]

john lennon was braute here to bring music in people ears feelings in people hearts and magic into peoples souls and minds....thats john john was a hero he wasnt a fool so why is this guy talking to john like hes a dummy or running for president....john is a gifted talanted jeniouse song writer not a law and order person

[Goodwith2005]

People, do your homework!

John and Tom had a very mutual respect for each other, he was one of John's favorite talk show hosts...so you teenyboppers go do your homework!

Trust me John would have walked if he felt disrespected..This interview happened when you were still swimming ball to ball...

[FallOutBrooke]

That Tom Snyder dude is a hypocrite, and not only that, but he also beats around the bush a lot too.

[dasherdo]

LOL..lol..lol...this guy is asking about drugs but he's got a cigarette in his hand.....talk about being a hypocrite!

[ImNoTroII]

Tom Snyder seems like a druggie himself.

[ImNoTroII]

"Come on come on come on come on come on come on John."

Fucking retarded.

[volound]

lennon doesnt seem as intelligent as i thought he was.

he makes a lot of generalisations and fallacious arguments.

[dustin2006]

the biggest irony, the addictive drug that lays in the hand of the interviewer.

[JasonWolfeTumblrCom]

Lennon is so intellectually superior to this guy, it's like watching a duck ask questions to a super computer.

[brilliantmojo]

"another pop star bites the dirt" john lennon listened to queen lol

[JimColyer]

Lennon was an idiot.

[TCfoxs]

@JimColyer SHUT THE FUCK UP.

[AwsomeQman25]

every time I look at John Lennon's face , He reminds me of NicePeter

[amcd981]

04:19 made me laugh...questioning the use of dope and endorsing a much more lethal substance on tv at the same time!? Actually looked like a failed propaganda attempt.

[knightschwartz]

according to that book by goldberg Lennon was a huge heroin user. I wonder if he was using at this time. I don't think it should crimilized.

[ffairlane57]

@knightschwartz , John was not a HUGE heroin user, but yes he did heroin.

[knightschwartz]

john was a nice guy. I wonder if he was here today if he today what his politics would be. I wonder if he would object to the mass immigration that has so flooded europe.

[JR2008JR]

@knightschwartz he had no problem with yoko ono, who was japanese, he moved to america, thus as an immigrant. nice guys have no problem's with race. get a clue.

[titsohmatic]

@knightschwartz lol you mean in russia?

[queenie1972]

Wow never seen this interview before - thanks for posting it :)

[MrElkhan72]

man, it's quite amazing, if you'll just watch the interview which is funny and lovely as hell, and forget about the fact that John was murdered and gone (and you do forget automatically if you'll watch intensly), then it feels like it never happened to him and it's like he's still alive, it's current.

[sweetlikez]

lmao they smoke a lot of grass.. smh tom is stupid

[chrisjmarr]

Check out Chris J Marr Original Tribute Song To John Lennon and the Beatles Called,

Everlasting Memory,

[jdogsful]

[SeagullTheFreegull]

this guys like fucking bill o reilly what a shithead nigger

[Dakiti]

'we all know you're a nicotine addict'

GO JOHN

[bonbon101164]

Tom Snyder - how the very fuck dare you! Marijuana is the safest thing to smoke!  We are all born with cannabis receptors in our brain and body! What a tw@t you are! I'm surprised John didnt lamp you right in your dial!

[romans52345]

@bonbon101164 Marijuana is not safe And the reason you feel that way is because you were Probably Smoking too Much of it...

[bonbon101164]

@romans52345 Of course its safe, it is a god given natural plant! No body has ever died whilst smoking marijuana. I suggest you go and study the plant instead of firing bullshit what you have read in MSM! Why are we born with cannabis receptors then? And whether I smoke too much of it is my fucking buisness! It has cured a medical condition I was diagnosed with, so I suggest you shut your big trap!

[romans52345]

@bonbon101164 God didn't Plant Marijuana Little Girl, it was them Mexican Bandints down south...God Planted Tabbacco for us to smoke which is much more Healthier.

[bonbon101164]

@romans52345 Yawn!

[alexofrancis]

@romans52345 its not much more healthier

[TheAlSiratHides]

@alexofrancis Less unheatlhy*.

Not that it really matters. The crap we eat today does way more harm than bud does.

[BorrachoCommunity]

Fuck i want to punch that interviewer right in the nostril.

[sirkickassful]

Wtf ciggarets are worse than marijuana

[4s2work]

Interviewer = Fuckwit. Lennon=diplomat who should have walked off the set with this dipshit!

[TheSecretIs1]

So many people would love to be in this interviewer's shoes and he blows the entire conversation on john Lennon's personal life. WHAT ABOUT ALL THE AMAZING, POSITIVE, UNNOTICED LYRICS AND QUOTES HE HAS SAID AND DONE. unbelievable

[moldren]

i keep thinking of Kevin Nealon when i see and hear Tom Snyder.

[Margaret10141995]

WOAH WOAH WOAH I DIDN'T MEAN JOHN LENNON (OBVIOUSLY) I MEANT THE INTERVIWER

[romans52345]

@Margaret10141995 Lennon was obnoxious Too

[Margaret10141995]

this guy is fucking obnoxious.

[1AdrianR]

Are drugs really the most important thing to discuss with John Lennon? 4:17 Oh the irony.

[FrogWithACookie]

That guy is such a douche nozzle. Doesn't he know cigs are worse for you than weed, and more addicting?

[AndrewHaddock]

@FrogWithACookie We didn't know back then.

[brianh190]

This dude is like the 70s equivalent of a fox news anchor. His interview sounds almost like an interrogation.

[sawaugust]

i love his voice its tight yo. Help we need you jhon heeeeeelp!

[deniseemelierose]

You don't interrupt the Lennon, damn it..

[IQspn]

this dude look like a fag with that fucking cigarette.

[iove219]

we know your a nicotine addict.....BOOM!

[vinnybking]

i love John's honesty....

[MrChocolatenob]

This guy interviewing is a condescending dick. Enjoy your lung cancer.

[BLACKvelvetRabbit]

@TrevDA9 John/Beatles were and are Icons! Of course they DID INFLUENCE youth!! So do Rotten football pros! As for Tom Snyder, Being 6'4", o Snyder overpowers! That is part of his appeal/ yes, the arrogant attitude at times was really who he was~Big Persona attitude/ However I don't think he is condescending Weed, but rather cornering John to open up about drug use! Snyder's articulation may be a bit pushy, but it's his technique. Although, John holds his own,saying he's a Tobacco addict!

[Lovemyselfidoes81]

I liked the way he said Cocaine it aws soo cute...cacaine hahaha

[SerielThriller]

good quality questions for an interview, dont see much of that anymore

[pedrodg1968]

stupid interview from thi guy traying to be a smart ass over jon

[rapperzondernaam]

I could listen for hours to John.. he rarely talked bullshit

[khurgya]

Tell him John!

[d4nilipe]

lol he is smoking a cigarrete. How ironic is that.

[matchbox555]

1:53 he says "come on come on come on".. sounds like hes impersonating the beginning of Everybody's Got Something to Hide Except Me and My Monkey

[mplsmn1975]

@sixsixseveneight "America killed John Lennon"? Where did you come up with that little gem? Mark David Chapman killed John Lennon.

[mplsmn1975]

Everybody smoked back then. Quit bitching about the cigarette, people.

[MrMrsteve01]

Love the cigaret and talking about dope...

[TheIntalexMusic]

imagine what tupac and this guy would create lol

[ohiosouthpaw]

@TheIntalexMusic Tupac???? John would have a six pack with Jim Morrison and Jimi Hendrix..But please ..no Tupac (two pack) They are still wondering what the rap shit is all about. John was a musician..a legend before he died.

[TheIntalexMusic]

@ohiosouthpaw funny ass fool

[cntblaster]

penis

[sweetwatermeloen]

ATTENTION ALL JOHN LENNON FANS

On October 9th we will all watch "Imagine" in honor of the greatest singer ever's birthday. Let's give him the best birthday present ever: the highest viewed video on YouTube!! Let's give him what he deserves and what Justin Bieber does not deserve to have!

Copy and paste to all John lennon/beatles videos and all music videos let's get this noticed quickly!

THUMBS THIS Up

LET'S GET THIS NOTICED

Lets help John lennon

[alliant]

tom is a robot

[insertsloganhere]

@alliant the best part is him chain smoking like a fiend throughout the entire interview while acting like "You're setting a bad example for the youth".

[Goodwith2005]

@insertsloganhere John Lennon wasn't put on this earth to "set an example" look to your family for examples...he would be the first one to tell you..don't copy me!

[Neojhun]

LOL dumbass cop fleeing to Australia. Today Australian government is a bigbrother organisation. I now because i worked for the government "in some capacity".

[pendehassen]

and the stupid cigarrette in hand! while asking about toxics.. i'm glad we are at 2000's!

[AkisKapranos]

@pendehassen A politically correct reply concerning an interview of John Lennon. Wow.

[ivaninonca]

@pendehassen --- As Tom smokes ... Awesome paradigm!!

[jugwinedrunk]

@pendehassen

Yeah really,, what a smug cunt Snyder was. Someone should've punched him square in his fucking face after this interview

[nsyrkis]

wow! the host's voice, sound like obama??!!

[chubmasterflash]

its so funny how he's talking sternly to John about how drugs are bad for kids then it shows him smoking a cig on film. times have changed

[PoonSlurper]

This is an interrogation...

[Maggynus]

The interviewer talks like such a dope. Stiff as a board. I hate when he says "unlawful substance"...He's like a walking 50's reefer madness narrator type guy.

[iP0PE]

4:18 is the definition of irony

[beyondthot]

@iP0PE right? haha i started crackin up when i saw that

[highonpgtips]

@iP0PE HAHA was thinking exactly the same thing!

[elrondx]

How ironic is it that Tom was smoking whilst discussing dope!

[MrPersianpoetry]

John lennon is fucking awesome!

[heatitup420]

My friends are clean as a whistle tom ahaha what a boss

[Ambika2712]

Ich liebe dich,John!!!

[hammer44head]

Its so cool or heartwarming to hear John say he wasso concerned about Ringo when the Beatles broke up.Ringo had only written a few songs till then and had been labeled 'dumb' by elitest jerks.But john being concerned for Ringo's recording career and how things worked out for Ringo.John wasnt always the monster folks made him out to be.

[manwithouthat44]

so cool you could smoke on tv then

[christiannpardo]

your a true john lennon fan if you know what second is missing in what minute..

If you find it dont let anyone know, just thumbs up ;) lol fuck im high

[braindeadart]

Snyder, smokin' a cig...

[vidmsc]

Snyder is always annoying, he's just extra annoying in this one. He substitutes a crappy attitude for having good questions.

[willfaeva]

I got to pay respect to the rebel I call john Lennon a great revolutionary in a man all about peace in knew the real meaning of a human being we all are human beings no whether the color peace in rip john Lennon

[Magikhatman]

lol look at that dickhead talking about the "dangers" of weed while smoking a fag!

[likeprestige]

@Magikhatman He died of cancer...

[MrLuckarm]

funny how this guy broadcasts his ciggarette while asking these questions

[ApioAR]

@MrLuckarm while he was asking about drugs.. "You saying everybody use drugs??" With the ciggarette kkkkk

[TheJimFoster]

The global power elite didn't want him alive. He was a loose canon, a maverick, a great artist with millions of admirers. He would have been anti war, anti debt. During the 70s they tolerated him because he was coked up to his eyeballs. But in 1980 he came out all guns blazing. Then he was murdered.

Same with JFK. JFK removes the monopoly of issuing money from private federal reserve and gets the treasury to start issuing money. Plus he wants to stop Israel acquiring WMD. Weeks later JFK dead.

[TheGreatStonedOne]

I think the reason the interviewer's tone is so bitchy is because he knows he can't be John Lennon. No one can be Lennon. Lennon is articulate, level headed, intelligent; the interviewer is an blathering, invasive, behind-the-times douche. The fact that Lennon even agreed to be interviewed by this man is astounding to me. Especially when he implies that people are going to do exactly what Lennon does in his own life.

[pello01]

john is under pressure fucking yanks

[Tommyboy424]

"you would be surprised by people who appear on television or people who appear before audiences are looked towards for some type of personal insight into the world or their own lives, that a lot of times those people dont have" 4:16 he says while smoking a cigarette lol

[lalalives]

"I think it's better than mine.."

Um, no John. :) But it's sweet of you to be so generous about Ringo's solo music.

But no. lol! No, no, no.

[1FASOD]

This guy is a piece of shit! what is he doing, interrogating him?

[themattkalb]

he's askin him about weed and coke while he's smoking a cigarette

[turnbats]

i love how hes talking about telling people to stop doing drugs and how celebrities are role models....whilst smoking. good effort!

[musicalmajician]

"cant vanish in australia everyone knows its down there

lol.



[musicalmajician]

an add for "dope" 2:19-2:40

[supergamer501]

We all know your a nicotine addict HAHA i wonder who would win in a fight between these 2

[mufc4527]

@thefredz77

retard

[RelaxNplay64]

7:36 lolz

[atruckinthelife]

i love the way hes smoking a cig like that 

[ElegeantFencer]

Tom snyder's voice sounds like Obama's. Weird.

[PatrickTX100]

@ElegeantFencer

LMFAO it does!

[4spaces90]

Why is this guy such a fucking dick?

[4lyftupac]

john lennon is an inspiration because he and the rest of the beatles spoke up and did not care what others would think
