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, you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people sharing all the world

You, you may say
I'm a dreamer, but I'm not the only one
I hope some day you'll join us
And the world will live as one

Johh Lennon

Hoping your resting in peace
I have certain rules I live by ... My First Rule ... I don't believe anything the government tells me ... George Carlin

    Awesome. He was talking about how he was a big Lennon fan when he was on Howard Stern a few weeks ago.

    Another fantastic song: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6lLs2dC9NaE&feature=BFa&list=AVGxdCwVVULXduHu2wZH9k8kwu8BX_q2EQ&lf=list_related

    RIP John!

    3 months ago I stood outside the Dakota building in NYC, then visited Strawberry Fields in Central Park. I actually only stood across the road from the Dakota building, better able to look at it anyway but it quite freaked me out thinking this is, that is, where he was shot! :cry:

    A date I will never forget(helped by the fact it's my Mum's birthday as well +++ I have the exact same birthdate as Julian. Not that that really means anything but na na na naa 2 big dates in common!).

    There will never be another like him. The greatest artist there ever was and ever will be. His music and message lives on and his spirit lives in all of us.

    I so remember this night...We were devastated, but my father in law wasn't. He just didn't get it at all and there was no way to convince him. Sad night all the way around for us....:( Good news is his music lives forever! :)

    Beatles Remastered album "LOVE" is awesome.


    I like still like the original which is what I actually heard.


    Imagine.


    I enjoy sharing John and Yoko's vision of peace and put messages at their web site for the peace towers. Anyhooo...


    When all is lost and the world becomes cynical and has lost faith.... there still is hope.
