I love this song, he was such a brilliant man.We all have the power now to make a change and strive for peace.You may not agree with everything protestors are protesting for, but they should be honored for caring enough to protest, we may not be able to right wrongs from the past but we can right the wrongs today,i encourage everyone to stand up for what you believe in, and let's create a world of peace.We are all one people, let's learn to understand each other in love and peace.
Brothers and sisters of America - now that you have spoken in occupy movement and similar movements are rising up around the globe - please don't stop . the third world is looking at the direction of your movement. most of the people are dying here ,like in India , 70% of the peopl earning less than half dollar a day , only few people are getting benefitted of outsourcing and they never care for others. SO PLEASE GO AHEAD , GET A STRONG LEADERSHIP AND SNATCH THE POWER OF 1%. WE ARE WITH YOU..

@johnlennon1970 But those are not the people he sang about. Did you know that there was never even a single war between two democratic nations? That's the power to the people he used to talk about.
REVOLUTION!!!! We need to get Republicans out of office who support the greedy rich who pay no taxes. @marghehead, I'm a member of The American Socialist Party and we believe in the people running government not government running people. REVOLT PEOPLE!!!!
Why is there f****** american flags on this song?! The US government should tell all the truth to their people of what they've done in Iraq, in Serbia, in Vietnam, in Japan( ... ) before pretend be a democracy! Is the macarthism the democracy too ?! USA is responsible of all the povery, misery and all the War in the whole world ! Why are american so patriotics so? If they have conscience of all I said, they haven't any reason to love USA! I'm french and I hate my country because of war in Libya!
they destroyed yugoslavia because we were strong and happy because our socialist system worked we were free to do anything now in our new beloved democracy 67% of my people are poor and if we say anything against our priminister suported by the us there is a 99.9% chance we will lose our jobs,maybe go to prison on a lousi charge or have an "acsident", but the sound of revolution once again eco's on the strets and because the police beat to death an22 year old kid tomorrow we go on a protest.
Great video and song. This song entered the Billboard top 40 this week 40 years ago.40 years later this could be the theme song for the people in the Middle East,Ivory Coast,United Kingdom,The U.S Midwest and Washington D.C.
@thewarlord333 you idiot without a mind.The rebels are power hungry criminals suported by the us army and wallstreet bcause gadaffi mentioned the n word nationalization of lybia's oil that made un forces very angry because now they wont be getting anymore cheap oil an profit.The media lies about gadaffi's soldiers being demons send by satan himself(gadaffi).i Know tis because the us did it in my country when they send natinalist mureders and destroyed yugoslavia by dividing it!!
@ChristianSchock Yes indeed, they fought a hard fight! If people are treated unfairly for too long, eventually they will revolt! I wonder were all those billions are?
My heart goes out to all the Egyptian protesters. At least we Americans had the French to help us in our revolution but the Egyptian people have no one to help them and they are being slaughtered by the Mubarak regime.
@TheBacmaster "That's a very good question...Being a man of love and peace, I'd say yes, but that's only my opinion. Thank you

Joe, Lennon being a man of love and peace, would probably NOT support Israel. Rocks are no match for tanks and fighter jets. Remember Lennon's line in Imagine..."and no religion too". I don't remember the line being "we are the chosen ones". However don't confuse no religion with atheist. Israel has committed untold atrocities, but no one cares.
@msrebel54 john lennon would support israel. unlike you he would be well informed of the 7000 rockets that hit israel each year. when israel sends suicide bombers into arab and muslim shopping centers and schools let me know ok. until then you just sit there and continue to keep your head up your ass.
@Thelisaanderson he would indeed support because israel wants peace but those arab pissants want to get rid of israel , you are just like obama , he's facist and socialist , just like the muslim palestinans , the christian palestinians are being killed by the muslim palestinians , look it up on the net and you will find out i am telling the truth !
TheBachmaster - for president of the USA yes I am serious he couldn't do any worse and would most Likely do a much better job for the people, the people - THEBACHMASTER for President of the good ole UsofA - Power To The People sounds good to me – go Joe go - Power To The People
REVOLUTION IS COMING TO THE USA...THE FUNDAMENTALIST FASCIST REPUBLICAN REGIME THAT HAS GOVERNED THIS DICTATORSHIP IS GOING TO FACE OVERTHROW....................REVOLUTION
@medesdaddy Something has to give!!! This is not the way life should be!!! How much more bullshit can we take? All our freedoms have been takin away little by little. People of this country have had "ENOUGH" including myself!
@marghehead Watchout what you wish for! I see it coming very soon. This world has spiraled completely out of control!!! The people have had enough of this BS. Yes, myself included...
@TheBacmaster Totally agree. It's a mad house here in the Middle East with all the protests for change. People are just sick of how things are. From what I have been hearing its over 500 so far that has been killed in Egypt. English news is not reporting the whole truth. Civilization began here and it seems the first stand against the NWO is beginning here as well.
@ILoveFaqusForever It is my strong belief, we have reached a period of tribulation. As for the "English news"
they are also part of the problem rather than the solution. These are very troubled we live in, with Nation against Nation. If this does not smell like armageddon, then I need to know what other word best describes what's going on. This is growing like a cancer, and no doctor has found a solution to this rapid disease.
@marghehead throw the democrat socialists out of america and let america become the land of the free again , that's only when the tea party is in power ! and close down our unguarded borders ! and bring the jobs back to america , and quit buying chinese crap !
When John Lennon put upbeat songs out like Power To The People 1971 and Whatever Gets You Through The Night 1974, he sure knew how to make them feel very good as a solo performer in the 1970's.
