We did a song called Human Rights (Direitos Humanos) and dedicated to Bono Vox (U2) and John Lennon(beatles). Estúdio RDP-Brazil, Brasília-Alberto Dias
Beautiful video. So very tragic about John Lennon. Profound lyrics from U2. Although Miracle Drug is about a mothers love and a medical breakthrough for a paraplegic that became a poetic scholar, for me the song offered hope that one day there could be a cure for alcohol/drug addiction, as it is destroying someone very dear to me.
That his thoughts might be applied to the world whenever...including the early years of the 21st Century and the situation we have with warring religions for one.
I thought the U2 song covered a lot of the bases for what I was trying to do in this video (made almost 5 years ago). Especially a "wondering" of what might be if there was a MIracle Drug. I just identified it as Lennon mantra "Imagine". Far from a perfect fit, but a lot of people really liked it.
Id really like to know where the beautiful quote at 4.12 comes from and when. Fantastic vid, I know of only one other on youtube that comes close to it. You really captured the spirit and meaning of the man.
No need for violence, we have the most powerful tool on our shoulders. Lets start using it. Get out of the ordinary. Change the way you look at things and things around WILL change!
truly an inspirational guy. id imagine if hed been born 2500 years ago he would have been a prophet in the bible. If elvis was the king then john was the consience of rock and roll. Before the beatles things where black and white and after all was in colour.What the beatles did and pioneered is still the formula of all bands today. I really think 1000 years from now its the beatles and john lennon who,ll be remembered out of everyone else because they where about so much more than music.
To me, being the ultimate "fan" of JOhn Lennon, this video represents so much more than just a tribute to the iconoclast. It's that Bono, himself, has again written a song dedicated to this man who never forgot his Irish Descent, and that John, just as the Irish did, suffered so much from so many who were not with heart and love, and that's why people like John and the Irish were persecuted so. Bono, great work. I thank you for your love for this Legend and Genius we called John Lennon.
I remember hearing of his death on the radio. I was driving in my car, and had to pull over and stop. I wept, as I am now watching this video. Nice tribute.

Is this a song by Us, I mean U2 about John Lennon?
SDuck347 2 years ago
Just wondering. Did you watch the video?
x24val 2 years ago
Yeah. I just don't know if you're trying to make a point or what?

My description..."A retrospective and "look forward" music video essay on the life..."
Even the opening quote speaks to this as John says he wasn't just writing for his time but "anytime"....

I'm sorry the sense or meaning didn't come through for you, but that's art!

It helps an awful lot if you take Bono as talking about Lennon " I want a trip inside your head...and spend the day there
To hear the things you haven't said and see what you might see"

Wow, I wish I could remember from what "portal" I found that, but it's somewhere on the web BBC or NPR maybe.
Thanks for the good word. I hope you can watch more of my vids. Working mostly on films now, but I'll keep adding to the channel as years go by.
