The 30 Best John Lennon Songs

[itzzShowTime]

you can't go wrong with any song at #1

[ShadowPenguin12]

I can't decide about my favorite between Starting Over and Watching the Wheels

[ShadowPenguin12]

I put my hand to my mouth so hard it hurt when I saw (Just Like) Starting Over was number 30 I hurt my mouth, so thanks for hurting my mouth (jk about that last part)

[xcalle]

bad rating

[GustavoVillarBatera]

I do think Imagine a bit Overrated - Awesome but overrated.

John lennon had a lot of great classics so it's a pretty tight list.

[ShadowPenguin12]

I totally agree about Imagine, although I do LOVE the song

[1234jamesyoung]

awsome! , working class hero isn't as good as people say it is , real love is my fave :)

[davesmithmufc]

working class hero should be higher

[senodran]

1.IMAGINE 2,JEALOUS GUY 3.WOMEN4.OUT THE BLUE 5.WORKING CLASS HERO6. MIND GAMES 7.ISOLATION8.POWER TO THE PEOPLE 9.INSTANT KARMA 10.BEAUTIFUL BOY THIS IS THE BEST 

[chingchangchongfly]

Whatever gets you through the night? I found out? Going down on love? Any of these should have bumped out Luck of the Irish and everything from Milk and Honey. The ordering of the list is screwy, as well. Fun though. Thanks.

[EmoPissass]

lmao... #6... he's looking at that thing like he's wondering where to stick it.

[alexcubs25]

good list, but Imagine is his best song

[alvin64able]

for me the best song of john lennon is imagine

[surferguy100]

Weird order indeed

[janalav]

IMAGINE AT 17?!? joke right?

[miguelmonful]

are you insane??? imagine 17

[MrDan2593]

Nobody Loves You is my personal favourite. I love the power there.

What other Lennon songs have the blast of energy?

[FOTOCHOCK]

30. que cantante tiene 30 canciones? para ver cual es la mejor nada mas un ex beatle.

[Jhn8Pl8Grg8Rng]

Beautiful compilation !

[Marthamydear2011]

@Jhn8Pl8Grg8Rng OK but some are not great : give peace a chance oh yoko...I add : I found you, Scared and even God. Anyway John is a legend with so many great songs.

[myhorsiegirl]

Great list. :) John Lennon was an amazing musician, and I love all of these songs. :)

[gregfarleyeverst69]

I wish that im loosing you was on this list.but it was a great list anyway.

[myhorsiegirl]

@gregfarleyeverst69 It was on this list... It was number 15 from 2:22 - 2:31

[lifestraight]

@gregfarleyeverst69 "I'm LOSING You"

5 Mother

6 Love

[albuorkka]

@myrtlebox Ohh, yes! i wonder too why 9 dream wasn't on this list.

[ShadowPenguin12]

It actually was on the list lol

[chaselovespizza]

17 imagine!!!!! wat the heck it should be 1!!!! i just had a heart attack!!! 17!!!

[myrtlebox]

@chaselovespizza Yup, many will have issues with a dozen of these songs and rankings, but "Imagine" is in ANYONE'S top 3 and probably most peoples #1.  That is a huge error.

Personally, though, Dream #9 is #1 IMHO.

[davidmaxpower]

shit top .... must be imagine #1 woman #2

[AlexIsTrue101]

imagine should be number 1!

[DJ4e6yPek]

Imagine Must be 1st place!

[Legionbass19]

Great list! If it was my own, Woman probably would've taken 1st place, though.

[JeffersonDinedAlone]

As Lennon himself said, "I never imagined, no pun intended, that my little song about Communism would get the airplay that it has." And that is exactly what it is. No possessions, no religion, no countries, nothing of the individual. A falsely idealistic vision of blanket domination which, if in existence, would, ironically, have prevented the Beatles' creative expression from ever taking place.

[guillermopv90]

Hey Jude, why "Imagine", a song that easily could be debated as one of the best songs of all time, is in 17?

[loughman4life]

i could nearly guess what was next :) great list!

[GDLBEATLES4EVER]

[Mactwee]

I actually wholeheartedly agree with your choice for the number one spot. But damn, that must have been hell to do..

[aczepllin]

STAND BY ME!

[maltesemario]

I have to disagree with your list especially when there are anthems of a generation as imagine  give peace a chance that should have been in the top of the list

[Nikki1862]

Brilliant choice for #1

[PunkRockER44Lalo]

Imagine represent a change for the universal music, can't be in the place 17!!!!

[ufcmma12]

[reyedie]

La numero 17 y 30 deben ser las primeras¡¡¡¡¡¡

[coolerruler1]

on song 11 it looks like john got into a fight.

[1234567qwm]

Yeah! "Imagine" is the best one!

[corochena]

starting over is in my top 3 list!!!

[KylePatrickMcCann]

they are probabally not in order..

[olema5]

Imagine should be number 1

[SpeedStacking1]

Imagine in no. 17!!!????????' WTF!!!!

[1010Beatles]

"God" is sooo sad!

[1010Beatles]

"God" is sooo sad!!

[King689]

Great job! And excellent choice for number one. Real Love is one of the greatest love songs ever written.

[1337cyberninjasloth]

wheres A Day in the Life!?!!

[thenintendo64nerd]

@1337cyberninjasloth yes, that song was composed by Lennon, however it a list about lennon a solo artist, a day in the life was released by the Beatles

[wantsomecake328]

1.Imagine

2.Working Class Hero

3.Mother

[bergAgreb]

whats with a day in life?

[allthemusic111]

...

[lionvclennon]

imagine is the best song on this list and it should be number 1 other than that good list

[6meister]

starting over espacially and grow old with me deserve definetely a better place!!!

[rrichyfetuu]

Where Let it Be that should have at least reached the top 30

[beatlegirlno1]

I love all of John Lennon's songs but "Imagine" tops all of his songs

[felkro61]

I think it is impossible to order J. L. songs by numbers. It always depends of how old you are, what feelings you have, and how your hopes and dreams are. the mood in which you are is also important. I for mysself cannot agree with any lovesongs dedicated to yoko ono personelly. i am sure yoko was a big backspace and a good friend for John but her own musical performances and other artist projects could never impress me in any way.

[entubameesta]

@felkro61 i'm totally agree, i'm 15 years and some songs are more special than others for me.

[JohnLennonRingoStarr]

i totally agree with number 1 but i though imagine and working class hero chould have been higher up on the list...like in the top 10...cuz its impossible for imagine to be overrated.

[kratoslinkmaster]

mother should be higher

[hoangduc92]

starting over deserves a better place>.<

[5thfemalebeatle]

@hoangduc92 I know right!!!!!! I was shocked when I saw starting over in last place! >.<

[CastfireTheAwesome]

@hoangduc92 Just what I was thinking...

[HardDaysNight44]

1- imagine

2- jelous guy

3- god

4-give peace a chance

5- working class hero.

[MyDreamside]

@HardDaysNight44 i think you havent listened to lennon a lot,this tunes prove it,dont get me wrong but for me imagine isnt his best song,for example mind games,woman,real love are way better

[HardDaysNight44]

@MyDreamside in rolling stone magazine imagine is #3. and i love it not just cause everbody else does. they are all amazing songs.

[sydneyrhxoxo]

i loveee Cold Turkey so much (:

[anthonywcl]

Imagine John Lennon sing 'Imagine' at his 70th

[mmmmmmmmmGARY]

1: God

2: Jealous Guy

3: Mother

4: Love

5: Instant Karma

[HardDaysNight44]

@mmmmmmmmmGARY were is imagine?

[mmmmmmmmmGARY]

@HardDaysNight44 Amazing song but I feel Imagine is a little bit over rated, karaoke has killed it for me. People who only know one John Lennon song and pretend to be his fans annoy me.

[HardDaysNight44]

@mmmmmmmmmGARY well i dont only no one of his songs. trust me. i have lots of John CDs and i'm buying the boxset very soon. i have 2 john tshirts and a action figure and lots of books and documentaries. so i think i know lots of his songs. who knows? mabye more than you. andworking class hero is actually my fav john lennon song.

[mmmmmmmmmGARY]

@HardDaysNight44 I didnt say you werent a true fan and am not arguin who knows him better. I'm just sayin Imagine may be his most famous song but it isn't his best in my opinion.

John Lennon is my favourite artist of all tme. Live on forever :) <3

[HardDaysNight44]

@mmmmmmmmmGARY okay, who cares. his music shouldnt bring arguments. it should bring peace and friendship

[mmmmmmmmmGARY]

@HardDaysNight44 Couldn't have said it better. Peace and love :)

[HardDaysNight44]

@mmmmmmmmmGARY peace and love

[BeatlesForever22]

IMAGINE #17?!?!? your kidding

[greatestgoalie25]

17 should be no. 1!!

[killzone509]

@greatestgoalie25 totally
