Ringo's thoughs on John (1990). The video has been posted already, but the interview hasn't. This is from the Lennon birthday celebration. Ringo sings "I call Your Name"

"Laurel and Hardy, that's John and Yoko. And we stand a better chance under that guise because all the serious people like Martin Luther King and Kennedy and Gandhi got shot." -- John Lennon

  • John really was an awesome man. I get really offended by all these people, a lot of them young and hardly know much about John, just saying awful things about him as a person based on mistakes he made. He was only 40 when he died, yet he did beautiful things for the world of music and art, and his messages were very simple yet powerful. He was extraordinarily bold and willing to do things no one at the time, with his status, would dream of. John will forever be my favorite Beatle/musician ever.

  • @lalalives I wouldn't get offended. We didn't know him, personally. I've listened to Lennon's records, watched footage of him...he had people in his inner circle who are more qualified to talk about him, all we can do is speculate what he was like. Good that Ringo sticks up for him here, and I get that with this new Harrison film (directed by Scorcese), when George is asked about Lennon's death in the late 80's, "he was no angel was he?" and George goes:"He wasn't, but he was, aswell"

  • @lalalives I couldn't agree more.

  • Needs more cowbell!

  • Love the swimming pool part lol. I love Ringo -3

  • Ringo's voice really improved.

  • It IS The Willburys!

  • Oh my god! Tom Petty, Ringo Starr, and Jeff Lynne! That's just freaking awesome! This reminds me a little bit of the Traveling Wilburys.
