    Everytime this guy speaks, he endears himself further. He is an amazing person..so honest and real.. He's far more than his father ever was..not maybe musically, but definitely as a wholesome man. He is a delight to listen to. You should be proud, Julian , of how you have grown up thru unimaginable pain and hardship.. you are a very special person.Thank you.

    I don't think I have enjoyed an interview with Julian as much as I did with this one. Julian was allowed to be himself, and speak about things his way and not be forced into making statements that could be manipulated. There was no "fan-girling" or stupid comments by the interviewer and the interviewer was genuinely interested in the interview and the responses. He had obviously done his home work.
    Julian spoke eloquently and delivered his replies in a way that continues to endear him to the world. He is a brilliant talent and his photography and music stand alone in their brilliance and individuality. I am glad that Julian has now found peace and calm with his past and continues to use those experiences to map out his future his way. Overall this is the best interview I have seen Julian give.

    Julian may be one of the most grounded and well-adjusted people of any child of any superstar. He's not a drug head, alcoholic, out of control imbecile. You don't hear or read bad stories about him. I credit that to Cynthia. She pretty much raised him herself under the most daunting circumstances, and he was always respectful to her and cared for her as should anyone with their Mom.
    It had to be a heavy load being the son of one of the most loved stars of all time and the namesake of one of the most beloved songs in rock history.

    I really admire Julian Lennon. He appears to be a very thoughtful, compassionate and grounded human being.
    He has been treated badly over the years by the media and music industry. It must have been difficult living in his father's shadow, while carving out his own career and life. His father's second wife has a lot to answer for, by keeping Julian apart from his father's legacy.
    Julian Lennon is a talented, visionary sincere person who deserved better from his father, the industry and the pernicious media.
    I hope he has found peace.

      We don't know the whole story. Deserved better from his father? It's a myth that his father was a terrible dad. I've seen hundreds of photos of John with Julian, including some with both of them in America including Yoko. John took him to the set of 'Happy Days', let Julian play drums on the 'Walls and Bridges' album, said 'hi Julian' in the 'Stand By Me' video, so he missed him alright. It didn't help that John was divorced from his first wife, so naturally you can't spend all your time with your son and being in another country didn't help either, especially with the immigration battles, but the bullshit that's evolved over time that John Lennon was a terrible dad is getting ridiculous ,..sure he wasn't perfect, few dads are, but Julian has done okay.

    He's not kidding when he says he's had a lot of fear. I saw him in concert when he put his first album out; it was really awkward and uncomfortable. I have never seen a performer that terrified in my life. You could feel his panic sitting in the audience and you just didn't know what to do, It was such a shame because I think he's really talented and it's the fear that's held back his career. Hopefully he's realized that nobody buys concert tickets and goes to a show because we wish the performer ill, God bless and good luck to him; I hope he crushes it with this album.

      Julian said he feels whole now. He has made peace within himself. Some people do find peace with such things. We can't change what happened, but we can change where that memory fits in our life. We can gain the broader understanding as an adult, that was not comprehendable as a child. We can fill the gaps that were left from childhood with self nurturing. When we learn who we are, separate from the false messages we were given, or interpreted, as children, we can learn to give ourselves emotionally what we need. Then the people who failed to meet those needs fade in power and consequence in the quality of our lives. The blackhole emptiness of lonely abandonment, sucking our energy, loses its power. The ache and sensitive bruise sting when touched, fades with this healing. Those memories fit differently, in a bigger weaving of life experiences, and people met, far beyond our childhood imagination.

    As a child, I absolutely loved "Too Late for Goodbyes" & "Valotte." Actually now in my 40's, I still play them frequently.
    My Mom was a Beatles fan & though I often heard them back then when she played the oldies station, I didn't realize the connection at the time... but I knew she adored Julian as well. It wasn't until my senior year of high school when "The Beatles Anthology" aired that I became a huge fan myself & finally realized the connection. I finally saw the strong resemblance, but even as a child always could tell Julian's sound was very distinct.
    As an adult... who also had her spouse walk out on her & their very young son...so much of Cynthia & Julian's story brings me to tears & anger each time I hear because it is all too familiar. It made listening to my much loved "Fab 4" & John's solo song's almost impossible for quite a while. So I really respect how Julian is able to separate the man from the music/artist & still find that appreciation. I also really respect the person & mother Cynthia was. John may have left a huge musical legacy. However, in everything I have ever read & watched of Julian...including this interview...her legacy speaks VOLUMES in the wonderful man Julian appears to be. I was completely mesmerized by this interview & no doubt will be watching again & sharing. Thank you for posting this & thank you Julian for the music, the creativity & your heart for others.

    Such a well-spoken man. Thoughtful and level-headed for all he's been through. And I've always loved his sound.

      I think his mum made sure he got a good education. So glad his father paid for that, at least.♡

    John hasn’t left us ,if you listen to Julians voice you can still hear his dads monotones ever so slightly, beautiful men both of them.

    Love him, he seems more relatable than his father and more humble.

    He's been through so many emotional rollercoasters. He has worked through them and came out wise on the other side.
