John Lennon - (Imagine Take 1) Rare

John Lennon - Imagine Take 1. This video also contains many photos of John from a young man to later life. Some of the photos are quite rare.

John Winston Ono Lennon, MBE (born John Winston Lennon; October 9, 1940 -- December 8, 1980) was an English rock musician, singer, songwriter, artist, and peace activist who gained worldwide fame as one of the founding members of The Beatles. As a member of the group, Lennon was one of the lead vocalists and co-wrote the majority of the band's songs with bassist Paul McCartney.

In his solo career, Lennon wrote and recorded songs such as "Give Peace a Chance" and "Imagine". Lennon revealed his rebellious nature and wit on television, in films such as A Hard Day's Night, in books such as In His Own Write, and in press conferences and interviews. He was controversial through his work as a peace activist, artist, and author.

Lennon had two sons: Julian Lennon, with his first wife Cynthia Lennon, and Sean Ono Lennon, with his second wife, avant-garde artist Yoko Ono. After a self-imposed retirement from 1976 to 1980, Lennon reemerged with a comeback album, but was murdered one month later in New York City on 8 December 1980. In 2002, respondents to a BBC poll on the 100 Greatest Britons voted Lennon into eighth place. In 2004, Rolling Stone magazine ranked Lennon number 38 on its list of "The Immortals: The Fifty Greatest Artists of All Time" and ranked The Beatles at number one.

OMG can you guys stop saying it's julian ! IT's John Lennon here !!

[Martin126X]

@ludwigking Nope, I can recognize Lennon's voice perfectly, I listened to him for many, MANY years. Also there is plenty of info on the net that it's John, don't write something unless you're sure it's true. Oh, and John Lennon Anthology (The box set this song was on) was released November 1998. So there is absolutely no chance that this is not John.

@sean2kk8 have you watched the US Vs John Lennon documentary? If not i recommend watching it, you can find it here on youtube. The US Government hated John Lennon and tried to kick him out of the country at one point. They thought that he could overthrow the government and they didn't like the fact he was fighting for world peace so they tried to do everything to get rid of him and i the end they had him killed.

[sean2kk8]

@samusic160 its a bit far fetched. why would they have killed him, what would be the point!

[samusic160]

@sean2kk8 you can't rule out the fact that the CIA could have killed him though, i mean it could have just been a crazy man however don't rule out the other posibilities.

[sean2kk8]

@elouwen no he was killed by a person droving to insanity by depression.

[UcopSasori]
