@disturbedfan211 John Lennon does lead guitar and backing vocals on this ya know

My favourite ever version of this song. I adore Bowie!

@SugarBean915 I'm a fan of the Beatles and Lennon, so I did not know what to expect from the cover of Bowie, I thought that sounded like the Beatles ... I repeat, I really liked the cover of Elton John, because it is delicate, as the words of the text, but this ... is how to sing the song of the Beatles - Michelle, Metallica ... The words and rhythm do not blend ... however is always nice to know the opinion of other people ... =) But I have no objection to Metallica ... not my kind of music ...

@Ragazzabrivido It does sound a bit like Bowie is trying too hard, but that is just the way he sings. It's his typical sound, I like it, but others who are expecting the Lennon sound may think differently :D

[Ragazzabrivido]

I do not like this song ... Bowie tries to do the hard, singing a sweet song with a beautiful meaning ... not so with Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds, made​later by singing Elton John ... Him, although he changed the rhythm, the song remains the one, and is also wonderful ... I thought it was the same with Across The Universe ... I was wrong ... However, I expressed my opinion, no I do not contest your opinion ... =) Bye

Lennon not only contributed guitar and vocals, but said later that he much preferred this version to his own.

YOU just have to absolutely ***love*** David Bowie he is most definitively the definition of rock n' roll

How are you even real.

Oh my God. I want to marry David Bowie's voice. 

[HuntertheHacker]

I think John Lennon was part of this version (along with "Fame")

[Devgru77]

I think Bowie's version is better than the Beatle's version. It has more soul and personality.

Its crazy how versatile how Bowies voice is. Compare this with space oddity.
