Lennon at his rawest,stripped down basic blues, he didnt need to do pepper or revolver or abbey road again & again......he re-invented himself by taking a chance.....what all musicians need to do.........
Repito:bajo,bateria y guitarra. Esta mas cerca del punk, que del pop. Y su voz se torna dura y aspera, y es que Lennon cantaba como queria.Lo mismo que con los beatles, tambien en solitario experimentó con todos los estilos.Una clara muestra de genialidad.
@journeythroughthepast I have to say, the fact that it's less.. cleaned up than a lot of Beatles stuff really gets me going (in a good way). It just feels good.
@GamecubeLPs me? I dont think so! It's you that do not accept the truth and a different opinion and think that everbody should think and like the same stuff that u like... yes man, u must have mental problems! take care of ur self ;))
The first time I heard this I thought it was a Stooges song. I was thinking 'Who could be crazy enough to just scream like that during a song' and I was surprised that it was fucking John and not Iggy!
Fuck, THIS was the template for all rock bands after this album came out. And how could it not be, this was the same guy who formed the greatest band of all time, THE BEATLES.
bad ass song..this is so intense. first heard it in the departed (one of my favorite movies) i've listen to lennon for a while now and somehow didnt know this before...haha
The Departed was a great movie. One of my favorites. The music featured in that film is awesome. You've got Well, Well, Well by John Lennon, and Give me Shelter by the Rolling Stones in the begining of the film. God I love Lennon and The Departed.
JL/Plastic Ono Band is my favourite of all te Beatles solo albums. Some Beatle fans will hate most of it, for being so underproduced, sparse and naked than anything the Beatles did. But to me, it's like proto-punk. An album like that would've been huge in 1977-78. Not since his Hamburg days did Joh rock this hard or scream this passionately. And it has the same knack for balladry as Imagine because "God," "Look at Me," "Love" and "Hold on" are very tender, soft pieces to counter the harshness.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
its fuckin cool song , but its not really revolutionary , it sounds very stonesy like monkey man , and he is trying to sing like jagger. they was making songs like this 3 years before 1970
you've gotta be kiddin me. the stones made cartoon versions of this. this is 60's punk. i love the stones but the stuff they made was always very much for entertainment purposes.
this version is flipping ridiculous. i must have put 100 on that view counter in the last week. all this time i've hated yoko, but if this was the result i may have to rethink my stance.
Lennon's influence on Punk is kept hush hush because his musical sytles are so diverse that they don't like to associate with the other stuff. He was in The Beatles with Paul Ramone namesake of The Ramones. When Lennon sings about revolution he really means it. Members of The Beatles were deported from four different countries. Germany, Phillipines, Japan, and the U.S.A.
well, McCartney was one half the lennon/McCartney team so not fuck him lol, and Elvis is the King of rock n' roll not songwriting so different catagory, And your right Dylan is in a league of his own. Lennon's pretty damn good too.
He's got some voice, heh. Aside irony, it's a damn good song. Fitted very well in the Departed; that scene with Leo and Nicholson makes me laugh every time.

This song would have been better if it wasn't for that annoying screaming. I know it was because he had some sort of screaming therapy thing be he shouldn't have put in his song (makes crap crap crap).
