  • whoop whoop for Sean....

  • Wow... He really can't sing.

    No wonder I've NEVER heard one of his songs before.

    Looks like he didn't get any of his dad's talent, unlike Julian, who who least got a little.

  • @gorillapancake

    Awe my god just shut the fuck up. Singing is something you're born with, cunt. If you weren't fucking dense you'd be able to look past that & appreciate the actual songwriting. He's not John get the fuck over it.

    It's a nice song with a haunting, dreamy tune. Sean's voice isn't amazing but it's the only voice he's got. If it was a John B-side you'd praise how brilliant it was. If it was the same exact song just John sang it you'd fucking cream yourself.

  • I think the song is good

  • no talent fag! 

  • He is not the best singer in the world but not the worst either. So saying that he sounds like Yoko is just crap, John was a better singer but also not the greatest singer ever and I love him

  • when he looked into the camera I saw Johns eyes for a moment...RIP John, Bless you Sean

  • The studio version 'showcases' for the haters

  • sounds like yoko....bummer

  • remember who my ole man was because you know and i know i suck please remember my dada

  • @flakbac haha...you made my chest hurt from laughing so hard....

  • His chord progressions are absolutely amazing, and that fact that he can back it up live proves this mother fucker's talent...props :)

  • i think he has a nice voice !!!

  • Sean is good. Hes a great writer. Hes a great vocalist. People that like John Lennon are just going to bury his son. Sean is a great songwriter. Listen to what he is saying, if you listen or read his lyrics, youd realize hes as just as good, if not a better songwriter than John was. John's great. I love John. Though, this is SEAN. Hes not his father.

  • @darylmain

    Woah now. "Better" may be stretching it only because it' JOHN LENNON we're referring to. But Sean IS amazing. Love his music soooooo much!

  • I just dont know what this kid is smoking back then ..... But what ever it is he should stop it....

  • Sean that is good I never heard your writing or anything but I like it

    good show mate love and peace out

  • The Beatle kids have zero talent.

  • Sean do the world a favor and never sing again - we don't need noise pollution. You are the worst singer I ever heard. Please go away.

  • He sucks

  • i like the song ..but someone else needs to sing it ..

  • @PAULLONDEN bussing tables?

  • Me encanta!!

  • GOD it sounds dreadful

    

  • @fwcyeah The song is actually quite good.But, he has Yoko's vocal cords which are

    at best Kindergarten like.The Japanese can't sing worth sh#t. Is that racist? Maybe, it's just the truth!

  • hermsoooo!

  • Its a GOOD song ....shut yer fuckin mouths !

  • It's a blessing in disguise,Nasty's not here to see what his "beautifull boy"is up to. A sorry silver spoon case.Nobody would listen to this selfimportant drivel twice,if it hadn't been Lennon's offspring.

    Sweet dude,he should go into the restaurant business though.

  • FINALLY! Music for the tone-deaf!

  • What a terrible nasaly voice! He does sound like Yoko! Thank God for Julian's beautiful Johnesque voice!

  • He may sound like his father but sings like his mother. Julian is the one who inherited the talent. Those high notes remind me too much of Yoko. It's painful. However I wish him all the best, he seems like a nice man. He just has no talent.

  • You bunch of renegades! Leave him alone at least he prettend to sound a litle like T Yorke (Radiohead)..That's the good bit; But nothing special really. Sadly.

    Can anyone find any beatle's offspring doing something xtraordinary? I doubt it..Hope i'm wrong.....bla bla bla...here's no more to be said folks!!!

  • he's just an average musician

  • ITERESTING,EMOTIONALL THANK YOU SEAN.

  • Comment removed

  • Living off his dads reputation....awful song!!! he sounds more like his mam.

  • @Geoffdam123 Wow.

  • Living off his dads reputation....awful song!!!

  • Dearest Sean:

    one of my favs of yours! I had the pleasure of seeing you in SF several years back...was right in front, and you were awesome! Love your distinctive voice, and you play beautifully! Your dad would be so very proud....you are truly awesome!

    love,

    joyce

  • I'm sure of they had the opportunity to be as famous as their dad, Julian and Shaun would take a shot.

  • great song, but terrible voice!

  • First off, hudent and leftofcenter4 are both complete idiots. Sean Lennon has been doing his "own thing" since he hit the music scene. His work in Cibo Matto, his mother's projects and his solo work have all met with great reviews from a good cross section of the musical critic groupings. You two are just blow hard jack asses saying he needs to add to his father's legacy and the other moron compares him to Sinatra?!?! Go do some homework and look up more work before giving opinions please?

  • @povkilla I have to answer to you in few words and face this Mrs Ono and Son both are talent less there is nothing there, the only good thing going 4 them is the fact that Lennon made the mistake in marrying Mrs.Ono and they are using his fame to propel themselves in music as simple as that!!.and believe me I don't really care what they do and if you think I jealous this is a free country and you have a brain to think what you want..adios

  • @hudent First thing I notice about your topic reply is how sloppy and poor your use of the English language is. The next thing I notice is that you just regurgitate your initial complaint again and again without ever even pointing out factual data to make your claim of "Fame Theft" a valid one. Seriously, come back when you can talk without giving other people seizures with your atrocious misspells and frequent use of numbers for short number of character words you lazy slag.

  • @povkilla Go fuck yourself...cool aid drinker, sorry 4 my poor diction on this reply here.

    get lost

  • @hudent

    Your post is very sad. It's quite obvious by the reception at Sean's live shows, the quality of his albums, and his immense musical skills that he is NOT talentless. How you feel about Yoko is your prerogative, but she has certainly done some cool musical things. Perhaps you need to branch further than what other people have told you.

  • hate me if you must,but his voice lacks tone unlike his father's,sorry not even close this kid better chose another line of work...so long

  • I like Sean's voice and I like this song.

  • nice song and i am a song writer, and haters remember his father didn't have the greatest voice at all, I say he is a person to watch and all you haters are going to be proven wrong. I see his talent I feel his talent and I hear it also. that tune was more for a movie soundtrack however,.. good work sean!

  • @leftofcenter4 perhaps you dream of someday this kid will make it and use you to write songs 4 him,well my friend,he does not have it and his Dad was not the greatest singer of course but had a quality on his vocals hard to duplicate,we're not talking Sinatra here.so keep dreaming ,cause this is as far a this talentless kid will take you..nowhere.adios

  • @hudent

    dude, all I can say is just wait, it's only a matter of time, when he gets the right song in the right situation, and people will say, hey, this Kids is his own artist and can add to his fathers and his own legacy.

  • @leftofcenter4 Its cool to agree in something in this world,but I'm going to leave this subject alone only time will tell what place this talent less kid will have in history,I've got more important things to worry about and believe me is not jealousy at all.so sign me out.

  • As a child in the 60's and 70's we had a medium of entertainment called 'color by numbers'. This is the version of it just in music form, its called 'music by numbers'; a very popular style of writing for the modern day indie rockers. Experts say its due to skinny jeans and the sadness of their girls constantly having yeast infections.

  • Personally.. I dont give a fuck who his parents are.

  • silence, he is a son of John....respect this.

  • I think he's good. Different. Really good writing (if he wrote it). Naysayers you have no idea what it takes to sit on a chair with an acoustic guitar and hold attention. I made it through curious about what else he can do. He strikes me as a composer where every tune is probably very different from the next.

  • I really hate when someone dislike this or him because of Yoko... Stop the f******* issue!!!

  • If you don't like him then don't watch it. 

  • Someone also wrote we cannot understand the depth of good lyrics....? "You'll get what you deserve...you are dead meat" repeat ten times. Oh, yes, so deep.

  • @dedbusted shut the fuck and face reality this kid can't sing a lick,I love Lennon,and Sean is no John Lennon sorry if this gives you pain,but its the truth....I watched by accident ok.

  • @hudent You must have me confused with someone else. I think he sucks. My comments were sarcastic. His vocals suck, his lyrics suck, and he thinks he is something simply because he is Lennon's son.

  • @dedbusted Ok we agree,type PAPAFISH and listen to good music from this band.so long

  • Some idiot had the nerve to post that because he is Lennon's son he is "ten times greater" than any of us--see the problem with idiots who think the son of a celebrity must be good? You people are deaf, dumb, and blind.

  • a whiny voice singing "you get what you deserve...you're dead meat" because I'm Sean Lennon. Really...this is art? The lyrics suck...so does his whiny voice. His guitar playing is okay. But this is hardly a good song.

  • I've been a fan of Sean's since I was in high school in '85 and was blown away by the video & song "It's Alright" a favorite lyric of George Harrison & John

  • this does sound like a song john could have wrote but i'd rather hear him sing it :(

  • Too bad he sings like Yoko.

  • @SPECIALIZED380 he sings beautifully,, you are just jealous,,, he is wonderful.........sung with heart and soul

  • @elliebluesea I am sure there are plenty of TALENTED people SPECIALIZED could be jealous of if desired...you are so childish.

  • @elliebluesea hey Specialised,, as to your reply, you are of course speaking about yourself...

  • @SPECIALIZED380 Nah... he sounds more like Sean Lennon.

  • @SPECIALIZED380 he is a great singer! More melodic than his father...

  • @SPECIALIZED380 NOOOOOO!!!

  • @SPECIALIZED380 hahahaha

  • @SPECIALIZED380

    That is hilarious. I don't think it is a bad song or anything. It sounds like a Yoko and Elliot Smith duet. I'm also a huge Ellitot Smith fan, no disrespect to him either.

  • esa guitarra parece una "espinoza" no creo que lo sea y si lo es solo las hacen y fabrican en mi tierra,,,en campeche :D

  • Great song !!! a litle mysterious, saddy and cool guitar tones, Cool Sean !

  • SI lennon viviera le daría asco esto. Le diría "hijo", ¿Por qué está música tan anticuada en esta época? ¿Por qué haces las terminaciones de la voz como yo? ¿Qué te has creido?

  • @Juandiegodiverso muy verdad lo que dices este tonto no tiene talento y cree que por ser el hijo de uno de los mas grandes musicos,el va a ser igual..la mama le dice tu estas muy bueno casi a tu padre...que vea la realidad como Julian no son musicos de verdad.thanks

  • imagine hitler had a son...and he went on to be a plumber...and he over charged and you called him a fucking nazi!!!!

    

  • great tune...k

  • Beautiful Song Sean Lennon. your father John Lennon and mother Yoko Ono are so proud of you as a man of your own. "Happy Birthday John & Sean Lennon on October 9th 2011. Love, Leah Gomez.:-)

  • QUIERO esa guitarra marrón. ufa, es MUY linda.

  • omg what do you get if you cross John Lennon and Yoko.....you can hear John and Yoko in this song...at least the Yoko influnce does not cause me to cover my ears in pain like the real Yoko does lol

  • @xxxRORYKxxxable impossible that would mean hed have to write good music. looks like he got yokos musicle side.

  • if he wasnt john lennons son peaple would be like shut the fuck up kid.

  • The great thing about music is you don't have to like it, but in this case I can't get enough of Sean. :D

  • sean is better of him n jullian but jullien sounds more like his dad. n seam just has more talent

  • envy has nothing to do with the fact his voice is nasal and unpleasant.

  • julian is the best!!!

  • He has a good voice, thank goodness he has dad's talent.

  • Is this singing?

  • Sorry to say but Julian runs rings around Sean.

  • How old is he actually? :o

  • @908twister 35 x

  • elliot smith def a lennon gen fan

    

  • I love his voice here. I can't see why some say he should let someone else sing. His voice fits in the sound of the chords very well; the atmosphere of the song is made by the two elements. And why the fuck comment if this is bad. Stop being envious and get a life; you should at least respect him because he's doing something you'll never have the balls to do.

  • Everyone just shut up. You are all immature...

  • But is not this sad?

  • @xxxRORYKxxxable Remember, John became famous through The Beatles, and it's highly unlikely there would be three equally great musicians in the world. The odds are even worse that Sean could find them. Paul, Ringo and Sean should meet up though :D

  • Son reeee iguales julian.john,sean :O increible!! Esa hermosa y tranquilizante voz es de sangre...<3<3<3

  • a jullian no lo metan a the beatlees se parecen maas sean lennon

  • he should let someone else sing:O/

  • @AshtrayCorazon then you should be darn famous already, i suppose.

  • good looking, but bad voice. Julian's got all the talent chromosomes from their dad. ((( though I like them both, just because they are children of such a great man!

  • @AshtrayCorazon i don't think he has a bad voice, it's just exotic, and that's what is great in him.

  • John is cringing.

  • his dad would have been so proud of him :')

  • He always uses complex chords and sequences that work out so well... Very talented musician... But some people just keep comparing him to his father and to his brother and to his mother or to the pope or someone else... Like they are praying for Sean to fail because they don't like his mother or something, Just listen to his work and leave his personal life alone, and if you don't like it don't listen again.

  • Comment removed

  • Si eres hijo de John, no puedes ser mal musico y compositor no?

  • @ehuizac Lo peor de todo es que nunca seras demasiado bueno tampoco, siempre te compararan...

  • he could probably apply his self better...

  • @Xenobiarch - Do you ask everyone on Youtube to type "I think" before any comment they make? I THINK most of the comments made on Youtube are in FACT personal opinions.

  • @MARIObroxs You "only shut up" . This guy really is a horrible singer. Well, he sings better than his mother - but judging from your taste, you probably think she's a diva.

  • Sean Lennon is beyond amazing. <3

  • Eliiot Smith RIP

  • Good guitar player...HORRIBLE singer.

  • @711greenfairy I think he's wonderful. don't state an opinion as a fact please. it sounds hostile. that may be just me though.

  • @711greenfairy only shut up!, he's a excelent music man!

  • Sean is absolutely amazing. If you don't own 'Friendly Fire' BUY IT! Such a great album.

  • good, he isn't famous. being famous would make him spoiled maybe. like his voice and persona.

  • But shouldn't the song, music and voice sound good to one's ear (after several plays?) I'm trying!

  • I've just tried to play this song, is quite hard. Lots of unusual chords. Sean Lennon is a really good musician.

  • Im absolutely addicted to this song, i love it. hes so great! Go sean!

  • well its kind of Thom Yorke's  songs

  • Have to agree... its great that either of his sons (or any beatle progeny) dare go out on stage... Sean has made some very different and beautiful music.

  • Loved the Friendly Fire CD. Like his tone, lyricism, sense of humor and musicality. Whether he was a Lennon or not, I would've bought & enjoyed this record in a heartbeat. It was a serious six month ear-worm for me.

  • I Hate the comparation between John or Julian, whatever....Enjoy the music!!

  • @Avac23 nothing wrong with talking about similarities between father and son

  • SEAN IS JUST LIKE JOHN。NOT LIKE YOKO

  • @atopar37 Yoko actually has prety cool tunes listen to "Move on fast", "walking on thin ice" or "(everyday i felt like) smashing my face in a clear glass window" are really cool

  • I like this very much, both Lennon boys are very talented, and still it is hard not to compare them to their dad while watching them. He would have been extremely proud of both of them. Unfortunately, because of John's larger than life status, I think it has stunted the celebrity of these talented sons. People compare instead of accepting them for who they are. I too am guilty of looking for John in them.

  • He has his own style but musicaly I prefer Julian

  • Truly the son of John and Yoko , fabulous , enjoyed listening and watching him.

  • he should write more acoustic songs. it sounds good. 

  • I love it, Sean. I have your mama's ear...

  • Well i dont like his voice, but he is in the right direction, i like the lyric thought

  • I saw him perform at Irving Plaza in NYC when his Friendly Fire record was released. There's a great story behind that record & the companion DVD (if you know the background) is quite good. Love his voice & writing. Just wish he was more consistent. But then again, he has the means to follow his muse and if we were in the same position, would likely do as well.

  • Impressive stuff.

  • Sean's best song, he should pursue this manner of writing

  • This sound is beautiful.

  • Wow. I'm stunned, too. I'm going to have to get some of his stuff now.

  • Market this well...you'll go far! Great writing & you sing it so well!

  • Here's the problem, he is clearly talented. But I can't get past that voice. It's like nails on a chalkboard.

  • @TheMelamia my point exactly, like strangling a cat to quote james bond

  • nice work sean . thanks 

  • mediocre at best.

    :|

  • This is a very good song, it's amazing how the children of John, Paul, George, and Ringo posess exceptional talent

  • Comment removed

  • He looks exactly like Yoko, but with John's hair. Lmao.

  • He is like Thom Yoke.

  • @NerdyGlasses347 But a tad better :)

  • Julian sounds more like his father and writes pop songs. Sean wites more abstract I like both and will not split hairs over who is better...

  • sounds like a song written by a 15 year old

  • He forgot his comb.

  • Music is a great thing. c:

  • I love how a very special and certain hint of his fathers and mothers voice.. resonates within his own.. one could say their love created not only a musician, but artist, vocal-artist. ...I really adore it's unique sound.. brilliant

  • @DasGoeck Mothers voice?? You mean like in the MOMA video?

  • poor guy ..

  • I think he has the qualities to be more famous ,... he is not bad ..

  • ZZZZZzzzzzz

  • His voice has some resemblance to John´s, no doubt.

  • im going to stop reading this comments on youtube... let me watch the damn video u haters...

  • love this, love sean. he's wonderful and amazing. pure class

  • great song, but he's very ugly!!

  • @LazyCheeseburger John was not very handsome either but who cares, he was one of the greatest!.

  • kindof opposite of julians early pop years i guess (julian seemed less musically talented in early years, but very adept at the business and performing-ladies say julian was better looking) i agree with eigna13 above, sean has more than ability to go further with his music, but he seems to be content with his uniquely creative endeavors. Doan get me wrong, i like alot of julians music, like from mr jordan thru the 90s.

  • anyone else think he sounds a little bit like elliott smith?

  • Julian has a better voice and range.

  • stunned

  • Scary how much he looks like John.

  • gee, i wonder who that vintage acoustic guitar belonged to ? looks exactly like one his dad had in a pic i seen of him back in '67..nice guitar !

  • Exactly, that guitar beloned to his father...

  • Wow this sounds fantastic live! :D
