I'm remembering John Lennon today. It has been 39 years since he died.
I was a very big Beatles fan and John was my favorite.
When I was a teenager, I liked all of their songs and bought many of their albums but never saw them perform live at a concert.
Even to this day their songwriting and style is exceptional.
The song, "Imagine", is most appropriate for what we are experiencing right now and it's sad to think that we've not moved an inch closer to the words they wrote in the song.
Surely, we can do better.
My favorite song, though, is "In My Life".
There are places I remember
All my life though some have changed
Some forever not for better
Some have gone and some remain
All these places have their moment
With lovers and friends I still can recall
Some are dead and some are living
In my life I've loved them all
But of all these friends and lovers
There is no one compares with you
And these memories lose their meaning
When I think of love as something new
Though I know I'll never lose affection
F
or people and things that went before
I know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
Though I know I'll never lose affection
For people and things that went before
I
know I'll often stop and think about them
In my life I love you more
In my life I love you more
