Sean Lennon at Sundance 07

[repelghosts]

who in the blue balls fuck keeps telling this moron that he has talent...Talent skips 2-3 generations...that you can listen to...someone put him out of his misery...good fucking lord...Gemma

[cabreracid]

"Wait for me"... Que gran canción, me encantaaaa!.

[LeahsLegacy19569]

AWESOME WAIT FOR ME

[LeahsLegacy19569]

Such a sweetness Sean Lennon's music back the Subdance 2007.

[MarquesGuitar]

Amazing... If there is a definition for indie music... this is it.

[83ishgirl]

I so was singing along with him. :) I need another c.d. from him. I love his music.

[looloochoochoo]

I wonder if he ever goes, "Shit, I'm John Lennon's son"

[rafalweb]

Chills, his voice channels John.....

[1962devil]

He's just FANTASTIC !!!!*****

[sacrobossa]

not good. try play same think on idols program. you are not singer.

[edgaram69]

@sacrobossa So? you don't have to be a singer to be an artist.

[ItchyGoomie]

HIs look is so goofy

[opensecret51]

His songe feel as a deep longing

[chilenagringa27]

ur guys r so mean. I think he is amazing! Julian too. They both took their father's talent.

[dirtylarry69]

He is a fuckin joke trying to look like his dad .with those slanty eyes .fuck him

[stuff038]

@dirtylarry69 who else is he supposed to look like? he's john lennon's SON dumb ass

[CurtisHalfHalf]

@stuff038 The real problem is his mother is Yoko Ono..

[Daisy1988ful]

What a poser, at least John's other son has his own style.

[bountyonmyhead]

@Daisy1988ful he's following his father's footsteps and that makes him a poser? most people take their style from someone else why not be your own fathers.

[scorpiovike]

@TheDiddlysquat were you drunk when you wrote this? Whose Jim? What's your father getting wasted have to do with anything? Why does my Dad's passing matter to you? What is being good at the fucking piss mean? Holy shit you're a moron. John was lucky to get killed at 40? Douche, you love John but talk about his son like this? WTF? You know for a fact that Sean is a cunt and or that someone will kill him? Ladies and gents, case in point...don't do drugs. Jesus Christ!

[TheAlexw87]

sounds like "I'm Only Sleeping"

[scorpiovike]

Sean's stuff is amazingly well done. If people don't like that his father was famous I hope the have a panic attack over it.

[scorpiovike]

@TheDiddlysquat you get the same response... why write you a new one: F&ck you. He can't go into music cause you think he's got it too easy. Move to Russia and become a journalist. If you had a clue you'd know Sean is a very good somgwriter. Down with every hack like you crying about who has it better than you. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

[MrJettJester]

I can see the vocal and physical appearence between Sean and his Father. It may just be me, but I can swear they are very much similar that what other people say. I hear it in the lyrics.

[rodriguano]

booooring!!!!.

[emsanders18]

as he's gotten older his voice has grown more mature, his phrasing more confident

[juanopaez]

y que tiene de malo que no sea como su padre??? julian es mediocre porque cree que es como su padre, sean es sean y es grandioso!!!!!

[juanpolar]

if he wasnt lennon son... everybody would be saying at least it was the best album of the decade

but he has that cross to bare... so he has to make things double good to be awknolage

[julimarti]

Nunca será como su padre...

[Dkkbulletsmile]

i think he would be better without his mum....................... yoko fucked john up once dont let her fuck his young one again..... plz plz plz yoko just let the young one be as he wants to be.............

[EATHhable]

he's fat

[catfish1935]

he's looking more and more like his dad as he gets older..dunno whether or not his music would have had so much 'success' without the 'name', but that isn't necesarily to detract from him as a musician because he is frankly far better than most of the naysayers out there.. and if he is doing something that makes him happy, then i don't doubt his father would be happy and proud..

[GauchoLibre]

pat metheny orchestrion is pretty damn close.... haha

anyway, sean is a gem in teh musical world. i wish he pumped out more solo CDs.

[remyshepherd]

I was kinda into Sean but not completely... when I saw him live I fell in love (with the music people). Stop comparing him to John. Try to think of him as a musician who is heavily influenced by Lennon and you can appreciate it A LOT more.

[2threemiles]

there are MANY gifted people out there

go out on the streets of big cities, some buskers will surprise you, some of them are extremly good... problem?

i think it is unfair that because of your surname, you get a much easier life and a much smoother track with bigger doors to what you want

[EATHhable]

@2threemiles I KNOW RIGHT! I get pissed at all the idiots who think that the rest of the world is not as talented. Lies! There have been millions of people who've had the same talent as John Lennon's, etc. they just never had the opportunity. There is a limited amount of space at the top of the artistic pyramid. Not everyone can be famous. Down with nepotism!

[scorpiovike]

@EATHhable F&ck you. He can't go into music cause you think he's got it too easy. Move to Russia and become a journalist. If you had a clue you'd know Sean is a very good somgwriter. Down with every hack like you crying about who has it better than you. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!

[LonlyHeartsClubBand]

Wow. I love Sean Lennon. Hes so wise. And his own person. And I love this song.

Its so true, music is so digitised, and I hate that, this is the true stuff I love!

[nealae1234]

Wow, why all the hate?? Mellow out.

If this is not your cup of mud, then move along. John Lennon 2.0 is not what he is about.

[HipBurRn]

why so many people are jealous of Sean's brilliance? are you disappointed that he turned out to be a musically talented individual? not your expectation huh... whew!!

[Bretster2010]

He's definately trying to emmulate his father in every way. Lucky for him, he has his fathers money to back him.

[winniefrankwilliam1]

if you think this is talent, you are deaf. Just take a look at the grin Lindsey has on his face.... very average.

[musicrick15]

What a pretentious little asshole! Your old man would yank your talentless ass of stage and make you play with your legos! You suck dude: Sorry Julian got the genes...

[LonlyHeartsClubBand]

Um, seriously, the good thing about Sean is that he is a lot different to his father and it shows hes being his own person not just like his father. I love John, dont get me wrong, but Sean has a lot of talent, even if its nothing like Johns

[94donnacone]

im not very impressed with his vocal skill

[deltorso]

Average .

[tomgreenlives]

He is his own......

[25corn]

Not a big fan... like Julian a lot better, more of his father in him! *<3 peace*

[smilelikeUmeanit90]

he is clearly TALENTED.

i love his music.

[ThePowerofFritz]

He is FANTASTIC!

[spbauk]

Are you kidding? His voice is incredible and his chord progressions and melodies are absolutely beautiful.

[thenamezrtsucka]

Loooove this song! I loove Sean!

[jeepgirl1105]

Sorry - don't like being mean, but this guy is not my cup of tea. Don't like his voice at all. Sounds like a woman, not a man. He's got WAY TOO MUCH yoko in his voice and not enough John.

[fugamante]

He's name is not 'Sean Lennon' is 'Sean Ono'... He's pretty good either ways.

[yoooooooooooutube]

He's name is 'Sean Taro Ono Lennon'.

[JONjRAMON]

He is truely aweful, he gets his lack of talent from his mothers side. hard to beleive he is related to the late great John Lennon.

[tomgreenlives]

Music is not genetic. It is art.

[MrPj74]

excellent song his father would be proud

[rrmoh]

he's half asian carp.. that will always hold him back..

[jamulano]

r u jealous?

[AsCuteAsThat]

omGAWD! He's SO HOT! @.@ He can be my hologram ANY day! ♥

[jjbin1]

You cant hate sean ,he is like every other musican a product of his influnces. Why all the hate?

[ktrout17I]

Yeah, but he doesnt make good music, thats my point. Think what you like but I for one think he only gets an audience because of the fact he is Lennons son. He certainly didnt get to where he is with "talent". Lennons music was the result of his upbringing and the influences around him growing up in post war northern england, money cant buy that.

[kinney1990]

He makes good music, if you dont like it fair enough, music is subjective, but personally i think hes an awesome song writer

[ktrout17I]

He sounds like a Mr punch version of his father more like. To follow in the footsteps of John Lennon is impossible, Sean and Julian are just degenerates that will never have the talent of their father. Lennon was top of the tree and king of the world, it simply does not get any better than his genius, Sean and Julian should do us all a favour and fuck off into obscurity, its where they belong if they had any decency.

[okieyorkys]

ktrout171, If you didn't know who he was, maybe you wouldn't be so Hateful. You should close your eyes and listen to him again. He is very talented.

[ktrout17I]

Hate is your word, not mine and I do not need to close my eyes to know drivel when I hear it. I could could write better songs than that having a crap. If you think he is talented, then you are of course entitled to your opinion but you will find that you are in a minority of people that think that way. I think you need to open your eyes.

[AdamOnBass]

he sounds like john a hell of a lot

[elevatorisland]

but lots of people do. there are thousands of artists... many of whom i meet and i'm sure you people meet now and then (if you're part of that kind of thing (i'm a musician)). i think you can honestly say that sean would never be a name if it wasn't for his father... and all his money. which julian didn't get, and looks like he has some more genuine material on his own

[elevatorisland]

comparing sean's early videos with his newer stuff, gives me the impression that he has honed his skills a bit, and despite his shortcomings has managed to come out with some decent material. so i think he does have a bit of talent.

[mlaunder]

As much as people hate on Sean because of who his father is, saying that he isn't talented is bullshit. If that were the case, would he be worth Lindsay Buckingham's time? Riddle me that

[IamAcomplexChord08]

Stupid haters...go look for his other songs..he's one talented person i can say..let him rise to fame his own way...just like his father did..john didn't become famous in just a snap..it took him years of hardship to eventually become one of the greatest songwriter and singer in tha univeeeeeerse. Go Beatles and Lennon.

[CanaKahuna]

Now we know what a mosquito would sound like if were imitating a Blues Brother.

[NomadRepublic]

No, daddy would NOT be proud. This douchebag sounds like an asian Donald Duck.

[blemonade]

God how i love him..

[knivesy]

daddy would be proud.

[jasonj31]

I just think his smalls eyes look like yoko but no its probbably cuz hes High!??

[LorelleCorreia]

Sean Lennon has a god given talent, much the same as his mother and father as they say the apple never falls far from the tree, to criticize an artist due to their parentage is narrow-minded and goes to prove those who critique have no idea of what music is and how its created.

[fluxmuldar]

This guy would be one of the many indie kids I see every thursday night down at the local coffee shop open stage, if not for the name "Lennon".

[jucamo007]

dont be fucking stupid fluxmuldar....this guy has the guts and THE FUCKING TALENT...WOULD YOU COMPOSE ANYTHING LIKE THAT?IF YOURE NOT A MUSICIAN DONT MAKE STUPID COMMENTS....HES EVEN BETTER THAN HIS FATHER....

[fluxmuldar]

Don't kid yourself. I know dozens of great musicians who will never get a chance of making it big. This kid never paid his dues. The fact that all these comments are CRAMMED with mentions of his father shows that. Name recognition, plain and simple.

[cactaceous]

Have you heard of Cibo Matto? Obviously not. He was playing with them years before he decided he wanted to become a solo performer. And when Grand Royal (the Beastie Boys label) decided to sign him it was due to the strength of a demo that had a pseudonym instead of his name. After the media attention that enveloped him after his 1st album he retreated and worked with other musicians like M, Deltron 3030, Lovage etc before recording his 2nd album. If you don't know about something, don't type.

[mgreeno333]

@cactaceous Saw Cibo Matto and hung out all night with Sean drinkin beers after the show ... a memorable event to say the very least ! Sean showed much talent indeed !

[timjmoran]

JUCAMO.. woaaahhhh, hold on there big Guy( girl).. better than John?!??! THAT is a

rather extreme, and, I'd say, Inaccurate observation.. Sure, Sean IS very talented--

but better than one of the GREATEST singers & Songwriters of the last 50 years? Ohhhh I don't know about that ...

might wanna think that one over a while...

[1940scollage]

whoa, whoa, whoa..

better then his father?

no.

[lasfinisimas]

deck glasses

[EyesSetForTheSun]

The entire "friendly fire" album is amazing, I'm still not sick of it from years ago.

[blackslick73]

Just LOVE him......kiss kiss..

[Borella309]

Hey - Sean is pretty damn good.

[tjcalalay]

crazyguy511..wat is sad about it?? you stupid dickhead

[poydrew]

it's about time sean sounded like sean, i enjoyed this

[crazyguy511]

unfortunately he got 50% of yoko's genes

[snesich]

Boo, hiss. What a disgusting, hateful comment. Shame on you. Do you have children?

[crazyguy511]

... All i'm saying is he is half musical genius and half break up the band.

[snesich]

Sorry. This tired bit about "Yoko broke up the Beatles" is stale nonsense. Think about that comment. What does that say about John Lennon? Did he not have a mind of his own? Did he not make his own choices? Wasn't he a responsible adult?

Lots of people are still sad that the Beatles split up in 1970. But blaming the spouse of John Lennon is getting old. And the unabashed hatred for this woman is pretty ugly.

Do you think John Lennon would like hearing this crap?

[catndryer]

Brian Epstein's death ended the Beatles. That event only beat Yoko and John to the punch.

[tweetermkyman]

crazyguy511 you clearly don't know the Beatles' history so you should not be pontificating your stupid nonsense remarks. Yes, the Yoko broke up the Beatles is fucking stupid considering that Ringo and George had quit before John made up his mind and left. Paul McCartney broke up the Beatles by going against the other three over legal disputes over Apple Corps. They were all tired of each other by 1970, but not as tired as they were of Paul. John, George nd Ringo worked with each other following

[Monkeybuttlove9]

reminds me so much of his father, wow.

[PAULLONDEN]

A bit of a hard life doesn't hurt nobody.

This is prime example of "Silver Spoon".

This dude's a woozy,might be pleasant

to know personally,who wouldn't want to be acquaintances with the son of Lennon.

As this is not to be...good riddance ♫▬♫

If this wasn't S L no one wouldn't even bother

to sit this out

[sunryse1]

Sean looks like someone took a photo of John and merged it with Yoko. And added a beard.

[fgr94martin]

Isn't that how the son of two people should look like? hahahaha

[sunryse1]

Sure, but is that how it usually works? Not often.

[andrewjshepherd]

..Any different looks than your folks,you may wanna start lookin' at the milkman!! :)

[xzyza2000]

Sean has Yoko's eyes and forehead but features from John..

[felixcommi]

This is awesome. I had no idea he was capable of such great singing.

[LLawliet133]

I think he's really underated after seeing this. I didn't even know he followed him his father's footsteps until 2 days ago.

[catman08012]

you are a flake. go listen to whatever garbage it is you listen to

[studiocity11]

He sure treated his other son Julian like a black sheep.

[TurbaTaT]

more like the black sheeps turd

[Floridaboy7777]

the beatles kids:

(Sean/julian, james, dhani, and ringo's son) would be a kickass band

[Monkeybuttlove9]

they should get together and start a band that would rock

[greeniem]

The beatle bastards? lmao

[KristinKellyrose]

I really like this song..

:)

[fibre291290]

I love this song

[TubaHero91]

He is like his dad

[TheHeartbeatsBand]

John would be so proud! Thank you for posting.

[ogCJCR]

some of his chord proggressions sound like john's

[jeremy321bdpm]

like father like son

[gregorio87]

he kinda sounds like elliot smith.

[MissRandom79]

aw...he is so AWESOME!

[jessedabody]

WOW! 1st time I listen to Sean.....awesome...You can tell he has the Lennon talent(singing):)

[RJD245]

hes high

[Jojess1010]

looks like his daddy

[MissRandom79]

I love that guy!

I like it better when he shaves though!

[orgorg7]

It looks like L.B. is thinking, "This kid is a riding daddies coat tails".

[LapisLee]

Reposted on Strawberry Fields 2008-10-08

[themtb2003]

BABYFACE Doesnt believe a DAMN thing Sean is saying..Babyface is thinking to himself during this..."I wonder If I can sample this speech into My Motif 88 key sampler"

BABYFACE uses NOTHING but keyboards and a folk guitar, that he rarely uses. for HIM its about SINGERS and not Musicians.. HE needs to get up from fleetwood mac and Sean lennon. THEY make what they LIKE.. HE makes What will sell. HE has to BE in your video,sing and write and play on your record,Then ONLY release what HE wrote

[BOGZASV8MA]

He should perform with his brother Julian.

Lennon Brothers.

[muse54]

That's the first time I have seen Sean since he was a child. He does sound like John.

[fuzzbuttnmutt]

How could someone that came from the loins of John Lennon be so damn stupid and talk so much mindless shit!

Poor John....well at least he didnt have to live to see the joke that is his son....once again trying so very hard to sound like daddy

[kingddd133]

trying TOOO hard to sound like dady....and he just never could

[HippyShake9]

How does the microphone taste? lol! but anyway, pretty cool!

[drummerm3]

i dont know if he reminds me of elliott, but i like both

i just made a cover of this song, check it up if you want!

[electricvibe5]

is it just me or does he KINDA remind you of Elliott Smith? obviously not as good but i can kind of see a similarity in style

[Deanosan75]

First of all, the song is 'I'm only sleeping' with a different chord arrangement. If his name was Frank Hunshanker with no bloody line to rock and roll royalty, does anyone think this arrogant paedophile would stand any chance of recognition?

[Deanosan75]

So what about Mozart and co.? Maybe music that is supposed to be timeless because of the genius involved. Co-opted? You mean corporatized? Maybe you would have found a better place in Stalin's goulags where music was centralised for 'all those who wish to hear.' I can't stand this little cunt. It's a shame to his father and it's a reminder that not all dynasties are built to last. This dynasty is meant to crumble under the weight of its own absurdity. God bless John and guide your wayward son

[frenchytouch]

blabla john lennon blabla yoko ono blabla beatles blabla,brother julian blabla..stop..please stop...just listen to the music,just watch the video and let it happen..this guy writes good songs,+ his solo performances "folk guitar/voice" are always nice..whoever he is..wherever he comes from ..it doesn't matter at all..i apreciate his music..

[Tdani81]

That's right Sean--live music can never be replicated. Boy would life suck in the future if live music was replaced by synthesizers and holograms. Holograms are cool, but not IN PLACE of live performance---never!

[YellowSub33]

sean should just try to be his dad (like litterally) sing like him, look and dress like him

because the world needs another john lennon

[Shyox]

John Lennon was a talented man, a genius.

We have those, it's just not the same man.

There are plenty of musical/songwriting geniuses out there, the Beatles just had three of the best.

Do you notice that their solo songs are just like any other artist? Though, they still ahve EXTRAORDINARILY good songs, like Imagine, I'd have you anytime, Maybe I'm amazed...

I mean, they were pretty badass, but there are others to be sure. The Beatles were just a band, though they are the best

[cayoka]

in some videos he looks really asian but in this 1 he looks really white

[lockyfan]

Damn I like this song.

He looks like John in that getup.  He has too much of a high pitched voice though for me, when he talks, but it works well for the singing.

[linshuyu]

ATTITUDE

I SEE IT AND I HEAR IT , SEAN!!

[POMUKOMUMI]

才能なし。親父のおかげで食える。すげー。

[maddymud]

this song is purty good ... and he does a good job ...

[FitsFiend27]

John would be proud

[aknowneemus]

he has loads of talent and his music is growing on me.

like alot of others, i used to think he was a "spoiled rich,famous kid" using his fathers legacy,but now i see he CAN write a catchy tune.

[clayeyes]

I am really surprised at how much I like his music.

[LapisLee]

seanlennon-com

[Rasscoco]

This guy is the product of peace and love unison!

[11w8k50]

hes not bad but i think he would get alot more respect without the big glasses

[muzic29]

he looks and sounds kinda like john

[ilovemonkeysinyellow]

idk i love john and i feel very honored to have his son around....when i 1st heard him and saw him i started to cry he looks and sounds a lot like him...and trust me john for me is my biggest idol and hero in my life...thnxs to him i live the way i live and believe the things i believe and he would be proud if he saw his son today. nice job sean and god bless u and ur family.

[DobleGolpe]

Like John... but John is dead

[gennarousa]

Sean looks a lot his father,and is a very good musician but it's not nice to compare father and son,if J.lennon was still alive it would be diffrent.....

[sweeetleaf689]

I like him and I like his music. if you seriously call yourself a john lennon fan you wouldn't run around critising his son because I'd think he'd be proud of what sean does.

[phrayzar]

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ....ZZZZZZZZ­ZZZ.......This boring turd brings out the worst in me. If he wasnt Johns son he would be in his bedroom just boring himself!

[xCreativeGirlx]

if you listen really carefully his voice has a slight simularity to johns :]

[fatuesque]

there's no way that guy is related to john lennon.

[dreamer110480]

he is. I know he dosn't look it but he is. i believe that his mother was Yoko Ono

[julbez]

looks like John!!!

[MutantLarva]

this sean is a mega wimp who inherited his moms musical talent...and if he wasnt johns son..lindsay buckingham wouldnt sit there and listen to his bs output...sean...a rich kid with a huge trust fund...

[prrolg]

He's right. There's nothing like live music.

[prrolg]

Is this for real?

[shawnxu96]

sexy!

[ameliaflame]

Watching that was the most energized I've been by Sean's music in a time... I found myself singing along and crying through it, he just seemed to be really in the song when he was singing it. An amazing video of 'Wait for Me'!
