"Imagine"

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 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

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 may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you'll join us

And the world will live as one

Pretty sums it up right there. John Lennon's vision of the world and how he thought it should be.

I had just turned 6 four days before he was killed and I don't remember the event. That's a good thing I guess. Can only imagine what he'd be doing today If that tragic day never happened.

RIP John....

Imagine going back in time and befriending The Beatles at the height of their fame. Imagine seeing “the boys” interact onstage and off, hanging out with them in the dance clubs of London, visiting John & Paul at Paul’s house across from Abbey Road Studios. Imagine all the questions when they learn you’re from the future: How are records made? Will their music last? Will anyone remember The Beatles? And then John Lennon asks the biggest question of them all – “What will become of me?” That last question sets 17-year-old Lenny Funk off on the adventure of his life with a goal that seems impossible – to stop John Lennon’s assassin, Mark David Chapman. Lenny Funk is able to time travel, thanks in part to his baby boomer grandfather’s old iPod Nano which is loaded with the classic rock and roll, and pop and folk tunes of the 1960s & ‘70s. Together with his new friend Yoko (yes, she’s named after that Yoko), Lenny “time slips” backwards where he meets some of his musical heroes -- not only The Beatles but also Jim Morrison & James Taylor, among others. Lenny must make some difficult and heartbreaking decisions—should he change the course of history, or not? And what are the consequences if he does? The year 2015 marks what would have been John Lennon’s 75th birthday and, sadly, the 35th year since he was murdered.Get Back: Imagine...Saving John Lennon by Donovan Day

Didn't this already happen in an episode of Quantum Leap?

I had a great day! Instead of sleeping in and wasting the day, I got up at 8 and I had all my slacking done by noon!

I met two ladies from Liverpool England who came to see a McCartney tribute band I was filling in for the regular drummer. One of the ladies said she was a member of the Cavern club and had recently thrown away her membership card cleaning out old things. I couldn't believe it. She also told me she saw The Beatles quite regularly there and as she was telling me about it , more than once said the Beatles were perfect gentlemen in their behavior towards the girls and the patrons. Maybe she went to the lunch sessions. ? I had heard They would eat on stage and Lennon would swear and yell to his friends from the stage. But who knows.

I agree. Not to mention the apparent Lennon fascination with wearing a toilet seat around his neck :)
