I saw paul do this a few year ago and by lord jesus was definitely shinning down that night, thank you so much for uploading this as paul has only played this song a few times and I never got to see my idol john , god bless, we so miss ya john, and paul misses ya so much he cried when he played this song live.. England misses ya The world misses ya Liverpool misses ya,
I will never forget that night. I was watching Monday Night Football and Howard Cosell announced that John had been killed, and how (after learning that) the game didn't matter at all. He seemed devastated as well.
My favorite comment here is "Me and john share a birthday"
How cool is that!
"Life is very short and there's now time....for fussing and fighting my friend." JL
nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo i hate tomorrow stupid bloodt fucking wensday and tuesday i hate em both one because tuesday always seem out to get me you know right , and wensdays cus tommorw its december 8th the day john lennon died the poor lad didnt deserve his death . reast in peace john and george merry christmas and happy grew year!
On the other side of this.. I love this song. Thanks for sharing it with Beatles fans who are looking for Christmas stuff by them.. which, for the most part, don't exist. Unless you're talking about "Christmas Time is Here Again".
No disagreement that jesus means different things to people.Lennon: "I think I said that the Beatles have more influence on young people than Jesus Christ.Yes, I still think it.Kids are influenced more by us than Jesus.Christ,some ministers even stood up and agreed with it.It was another piece of truth that the fascist Christians picked on.I'm all for Christ, I'm very big on Christ.I've always fancied him.He was right.As he said in his book, you'll get knocked if you follow my ways".(wikipedia)
I am both a Christian and a Beatles fan. By all means I am old enough to know the Beatles as entertainers and not prophets.
I don't mean this to offend - but The birth of Jesus Christ just doesn't fit with a Beatle song. John was hopelessly so far removed from this it isn't even funny. Christian Beatle fans have learned to look the other way while enjoying their God given talents because Christians they were not.
@1967mustanggta Peace and love, forgiveness and redemption are hardly values pertaining to Christians,especially given how often too many have historically defended judgemental righteousness,intolerance,selfishness, cruelty,and social injustice.The messege.ethical meaning n impact of jesus reaches far from the ugly n petty practices of many self-called Christians.What this narrative signifies matters to n resonates w many others as well,smthg many religious devotees seem sadly unaware of.
@Vannman99 Little confused here - Non Christians can indeed be a part of a system or community or government that supports non aggression and respects others through love, respect and equal rights.
To be a Christian is to be better or worse than this as none are perfect and fall short of the glory of God but inspite of all this, on an individual level, choose to ascept Jesus Christ as their personal lord and savior.
It's an anti-Vietnam war song. Backed by the Harlem Community Choir. The irony of the presentation here is too much, as the US wars in Afghanistan and Iraq continue.
A beautiFul Christmas tribute and gift to us all..Thank you for your time creating this..just love it..and, thank you reddawg7246 for sending my way..love this..most especially hearing it on Dec. 8...in memory of John.
