This is a tribute to John Lennon. My favorite Beatle!!! RIP John. 1940-1980

"Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" is a song by English rock band The Beatles, written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney for the group's 1967 album Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band.

Inspiration for the song came from a drawing by John Lennon's son, Julian, which Julian called "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds". The song also sparked controversy when released, including being banned by the BBC because of the supposed reference to the drug LSD, with the letters of the title spelling Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds. Lennon would later deny the reference during an interview with Rolling Stone.

John Lennon vocal, acoustic guitar

  • That mother fucker who shot John for nothing took something from my generation. I'd like to witness him getting his balls pounded flat with a sledge hammer.

  • @Hunock Thats not a true hard fact...A picture was drawn by a child that was a fried of johns kid or sometihng and that influenced the song, dont believe the whole LSD thing...

  • 0:25 to 0:33 is EXACTLY like the LSD. It's pretty much that way, for the ones that doesn't know...
