Imagine - Chet Atkins & Mark Knopfler (1987)

Chet Atkins and Mark Knopfler at The Secret Policeman's Third Ball 1987 -

Original song by John Lennon: http://bit.ly/EMzG9 -

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one
...

Personally, I think Lennon was just trying to say "Imagine" all the things that divide us and if we could sit those things aside and get along, why can't we with those things. I don't think the song is trying to say there is no God. Just my opinion...

@kizbo No religion doesn't mean atheism folks, it means no ORGANIZED religion sucking up money and worshiping idols and images. Christ wasn't a Christian. Hate wasn't in his belief system.

@gwcstudio

No worries, you caught me out.

In fact, I will go and delete the comment for good.

Lesson learned.

@ExtremeBogom - not me. I wasn't attacking you for being publicly rude. I was attacking you for being a hypocrite - something I'm not.

Obviously, saying horrible things to a complete stranger is something you're comfortable with, so you probably don't mind it coming back at you. So there's little point in telling you what I think of you.

@gwcstudio

Hey, were all hypocrites here.

[gwcstudio]

@ExtremeBogom - you're taking someone to task for being publicly rude, by being publicly rude yourself.

[ExtremeBogom]

@gwcstudio

How so?

[gwcstudio]

@ExtremeBogom it's hard to say something lilke that without seeming a hypocrite....

That is playing with good performance and dedication, playing consciously knowing exactly what is playing and respecting the space of fellow ... I am a musician's Brazilian center-west region ... hugs pros relatives of the great masters of music.
