  • Love this one man. This is easily your best cover and vocally its spot on. What reverb/delay are you using on this one.

  • Hey NoahWayne. Thanks for the kind comment. Reverb is a Lexicon direct at about 9% (light mixed), delay was a custom stereo slap at about a speed of 90... ~peace & Send our Troops Home! Out Of Iraq... NOW

  • I've loved this cover ever since I heard it the first time here on youtube. I was very happy to see it made the "UNCUT" magazine's monthly CD this time around. Nice work!

  • Thank you JohnLennonLivesForev !! I'm glad you saw us in "UNCUT" magazine's Lennon Issue. I see you live in California... Are they for sale already or did you have a subscription? Thanks again and I'm glad you liked this track!!

    ~David

  • Actually, I live in New Jersey-- I don't know how it says I'm in California hah. I bought it yesterday on the street on my way from the Strawberry fields tribute to the Hard Rock restaurant.

    Peace & Love,

    Devon

  • Thanks Devon!!

    R.I.P. John Winston Ono Lennon...

    "Hold on John, John hold on

    It's gonna be alright

    You gonna win the fight"

    IMAGINE PEACE

  • I love this song by you the remake that is.. you are a true performer and the music you pick out suits you. may you go far. keep in touch. happy holidays david. Vikki

  • Never been that into John Lennon...but love this track and fits in perfectly with present circumstance...

  • If I were you I'd change the title of this video to your name plus ¨John Lennon 70th Birthday Tribute¨ tomorrow ie Oct 9th like Yoko Ono has suggested... Best of luck!

  • @OurLordLennon it would be so much easier if you were a total kook. but it gets harder and harder to summarily dismiss what ppl like u say. i'm still not ready to agree, but u should continue to stand up for what u believe, even if NOBODY agrees...

    PEACE.

  • the Geroge Harrison Devil & the Deep Blue Sea cover was also amazing

  • I am blown away by this one man's renditon of John Lennon's masterpiece I Don't Want To Be A Soldier. This singer, is as good (dare I say) as John was in his version. I am so very impressed. Excellent job. John would be very proud indeed.

  • This as good as Lennon's version... Congrats.. Always like to stop by your channel now and then to listen to good music! Peace

  • 9/11 was an INSIDE JOB....Don't CONFUSE DYING FOR OIL ( and CIA OPIUM ) WITH FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM.......OUR GOVERNMENT KILLS & NOW SO DO WE ? MURDER SINCE WW1, WW2, Vietnam, GULF WAR, NOW IRAQ,MURDER TO SELL ARMS, GAIN POWER, NOTHING ELSE, men in a cave did not bring down the Twin Towers, the overwhelming evidence makes that apparent....we are killing for Natural Resources, FINANCIAL GAIN....AMERICAS SLAVERY is NEXT AT THE HANDS OF THE CORPORATE ELITE......John's worst nightmare

  • Remember that none of the 911-hijackers were from Iraq or Afganistan...
