Loved the Beatles & John Lennon's songs when he went solo in 1970. "Imagine" is one of his most beautiful hits. But he recorded a lot of other great songs such as "Give Peace A Chance", "Instant Karma!", "Mother", "Working Class Hero", "Power To The People", "Jealous Guy", "Whatever Gets You Thru The Night", "Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)", "Watching The Wheels" etc.
The most important song that John wrote, besides Imagine, is simply titled GOD (God is a concept by which we measure our pain). I think you would love it.
This song was released shortly before John was murdered. I like the song but the video brought back some bad memories. It shows John signing an autograph for Mark David Chapman, who would shoot John just a few hours later. The video also shows an (as I recall) unauthorized photo of a deceased John Lennon. Many of us remember the moment when we learned of John's death.
Watching The Wheels is my favorite John Lennon song!It was from his last album that was released not long before his death.It was played a lot around that time. I remember hearing what happened to him on Monday Night Football from Howard Cosell.John's voice in this song is like pure indica! So relaxing!
Great song. "Jealous Guy" & "Beautiful Boy".... gentle soul we lost too soon. Ill never forget the evening after his death, students at IU gathered in Dunn Meadow to say goodbye - a sea of flames from lighters. This happened all over the USA 😢
Great review. Some great Lennon songs that don’t get reviewed often…Nobody Loves You When You’re Down and Out, I Found Out, Tight A$, I’m Losing You. The bass player is Tony Levin. He has played with many great artists, but he was the bass player for King Crimson through the 80’s and 90’s. You need to check out King Crimson if you haven’t already. The other members include Robert Fripp (his band), Bill Bruford, and my favorite guitarist, Adrian Belew.
I believe you are correct saying that Yoko was John muse, but I think she was also his savior. John had a lot of demons and was not always a very nice person. Yoko seems to have have given him a sense of peace and happiness that he did not have in his earlier life with Cynthia and the Beatles- though not at all their fault. Yoko was not always well liked by others, but John loved her, so that is all that mattered. I gained a greater understaning and respect for Yoko after reading a biography "Yoko Ono: An Artistic Life" a while ago.Although she had some negative characteristics, she did get get a lot of unfair flack and blame for things she was not responsible for. A very interesting and talented couple. Bless you John💔
My favorite as well. Paul McCartney and wings have a great body of work as well. Medicine Jar and Let Me Roll It are really great. Check on those you won't be disappointed.
That’s the beauty of the Beatles is that you have time to choose your favourite Beatle, your favourite song your favourite album. They are the fab four they are complete. They are the perfect band and they did it with humour and love with the backbeat.
Still miss him. And I agree with the freudian slip in the video title - "first time hearting". I'd suggest his songs "Isolation", "Working Class Hero" and "Gimme Some Truth".
This would have made a great Beatles song with John's little Yeah Yeah's just like in early Beatles songs in 1963. Love this song but also makes me feel a little sad at the same time being it was on that last Lp right before his death. Best song for me from this Lp is "Watching The Wheels" killer track you need to check out. You'll hear exactly where he was in his life at the time which was probably for the 1st time in his short life which was a great place. ❤❤❤❤❤ Peace ❤
Another lennon banger....im from wirral which is 5-10 mins from Liverpool. Great singer/songwriter. I remember being in primary school when the news came he had been murdered. Even though i was so young (5 years if age) i can still remember that day.
The picture where John's head is down signing an autograph for the man standing next to him is the night he was killed and that man is Mark David Chapman who shot him. Sorry to bring up sad things but whenever I see it I keep thinking what if he was with other people and not alone!
John once said he wrote this song for every woman he had ever known who he might have done wrong to. Instead of being an ode to Yoko, it was really to all of womankind. I like that sentiment.
Ooh this video shows John's killer! I'm not even to mention his name 😡. You see John signing an autograph for a "fan". It makes me so emotional watching any videos with John near his home at Central Park 😢. I recommend, Mind Games, official video. Whatever gets you through the night ft Elton John
Fred Neil, whose taste in music determined who got to the stage then change the world is another whose cataloge must be heard in order to know from where all this music came.
He always was my favorite Beatle since I was 5 when they started out. I was drawn to him. I do love them all together and solo. George also a favorite. John has some pretty deep ones. One in particular is 'Mother' "Working Class Hero' (which you reacted to) 'Love" is another one of my favorites There are so many. 'Nobody Told Me They"d Be Days Like These' , A good one for now.
If you would like to check out a Yoko song from the album, try "Give Me Something". Great track produced by her husband & backing from the assembled band for their album "Double Fantasy".
"God" from John's _Plastic Ono Band_ album (1970) is beautiful and powerful, but was really controversial and p*ssed off many people when it came out. He tried to put the past behind him so hard & cold it's shocking.
The Yoko hate comes from the fact that after John met her, he basically no longer wanted to be in the Beatles. He wanted to do art with her instead, he wanted to do his activism with her. Since John was the one that ended the band, alot of fans blame her in a way. Which is unfair. With that said, Yoko is not a perfect person either. She is a strong artistic and eccentric woman that might not always be likeable, so I´m not saying she´s a saint. But the blame for the Beatles breaking up is not on her.
It wasn't so much "what she did," as much as he put her ahead of everything else in his life, and everyone else felt hurt by that. He would bring her to rehearsals and studio sessions, and the others felt that was inappropriate.
John Lennon was the best but all Beatles were great If you get a chance to hear the Beatles sound in the 1960s compared to everyone else they blew everyone away
Whatever Yoko hate is still out there is just ignorant bullshit. John couldn't possibly have lived her more. Personally I think she is pretty low talent artistically, but she was not even remotely to blame for them breaking up. The others liked her just fine.
gosh I wish John and George was still with us..we need them... the world needs them
Loved the Beatles & John Lennon's songs when he went solo in 1970. "Imagine" is one of his most beautiful hits. But he recorded a lot of other great songs such as "Give Peace A Chance", "Instant Karma!", "Mother", "Working Class Hero", "Power To The People", "Jealous Guy", "Whatever Gets You Thru The Night", "Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy)", "Watching The Wheels" etc.
Another big hit for John is "Instant Karma ". Check it out. ❤

One of my favorite songs by John Lennon 😊

Let’s not mention his killers name please
I was eight years old and saw it on tv 🥺
Why not mention the killer's name? His damned name will live in infamy for all time
Watching The Wheels is my favorite John Lennon song!It was from his last album that was released not long before his death.It was played a lot around that time. I remember hearing what happened to him on Monday Night Football from Howard Cosell.John's voice in this song is like pure indica! So relaxing!
It is a beautiful song they looked so in love, play some more please.
Otis Redding. I've Been Loving You Too Long! Thanks for the nostalgia.
Live at Monterey👍
Great song. "Jealous Guy" & "Beautiful Boy".... gentle soul we lost too soon. Ill never forget the evening after his death, students at IU gathered in Dunn Meadow to say goodbye - a sea of flames from lighters. This happened all over the USA 😢
I love this tune
Hey Biz, would you please react to John Lennon ..Mind Games..official video please. Would like to know what you think💞✌️
My favourites are: number one John, then Paul, then George and last but not least Ringo. John and Yoko are SO beautiful together ❤
Great review. Some great Lennon songs that don’t get reviewed often…Nobody Loves You When You’re Down and Out, I Found Out, Tight A$, I’m Losing You.

Crimso are amazing throughout all their lineups - but the 80s quartet and 90s "double trio" are especially good.
John wrote that song for Yoko, but also all women…we l I be you ladies, you are really the “other half of the sky”.
This song always makes me melt. Such a wonderful tribute to the woman he loves ❤
*I really miss music like this.........* 💖💖💖

You should check out Lennon's song #9 Dream from Walls and Bridges.
Thank you! ❤
One of the most beautiful songs ever. John was a great man, thanks Biz
My favorite as well. Paul McCartney and wings have a great body of work as well. Medicine Jar and Let Me Roll It are really great. Check on those you won't be disappointed.
It's been ages since I heard this one. Thanks for the trip down memory lane.
That’s the beauty of the Beatles is that you have time to choose your favourite Beatle, your favourite song your favourite album. They are the fab four they are complete. They are the perfect band and they did it with humour and love with the backbeat.
Lennon is definitely my favorite. His songs are always deep and meaningful
Saw the truth in your heart and Eyes....Make me Cry...
Still miss him. And I agree with the freudian slip in the video title - "first time hearting". I'd suggest his songs "Isolation", "Working Class Hero" and "Gimme Some Truth".
You picked a beauty to react to! Soft, gentle, full of emotion and love. Beautiful song!

♥ visited NYC last August. Played this and other songs while walking round Strawberry Fields across from The Dakota 🥺
John is my fav Beatles too Biz. Paul brought the heart, George the soul, Ringo the joy. John brought a lot of those plus Grit, Conscience and Sarcasm.
The picture where John's head is down signing an autograph for the man standing next to him is the night he was killed and that man is Mark David Chapman who shot him. Sorry to bring up sad things but whenever I see it I keep thinking what if he was with other people and not alone!
John's dead body (his face) was also a gem 3:42
John once said he wrote this song for every woman he had ever known who he might have done wrong to. Instead of being an ode to Yoko, it was really to all of womankind. I like that sentiment.
Lol shut up. It is for yoko for HIM. You don't gotta be so delusional.
Ooh this video shows John's killer! I'm not even to mention his name 😡. You see John signing an autograph for a "fan".
It makes me so emotional watching any videos with John near his home at Central Park 😢.
I recommend, Mind Games, official video.
Whatever gets you through the night ft Elton John
@@TANTRUMGASM I know his name but we don’t mention his name. He’s a low life and a waste of oxygen! Peace
I try to resist the urge to identify a favorite Beatle. Frankly, they are ALL brilliant!
John Lennon will always be my favorite!
**Beautiful** suggestion as ya asked for please check out "Watching The Wheels" & "Instant Karma" if ya have not already
Fred Neil, whose taste in music determined who got to the stage then change the world is another whose cataloge must be heard in order to know from where all this music came.
He always was my favorite Beatle since I was 5 when they started out. I was drawn to him. I do love them all together and solo. George also a favorite. John has some pretty deep ones.

John Lennon - "How Do You Sleep"
Hi BizMatik, check out the track "HOW" from the Imagine album.. it won't disappoint 👊
If you would like to check out a Yoko song from the album, try "Give Me Something". Great track produced by her husband & backing from the assembled band for their album "Double Fantasy".
I love this song ❤❤
Simply beautiful ❤
Here it is.... Thanks
It’s John he made the Beatles deep but Paul brought pop and everyone contributed that is why they are the greatest
Thanks again
"God" from John's _Plastic Ono Band_ album (1970) is beautiful and powerful, but was really controversial and p*ssed off many people when it came out. He tried to put the past behind him so hard & cold it's shocking.
One more...

Shivering. Mixend feelings. Tender and sad
I thought i was subscribed i am now,and liked
Dont know if you've done watching the wheels but thats got to be on your lennon list...i like nobody told us aswell
the obsession some people have over this relationship is ridiculous- he loved her, the end
Best Beatle

Do all the
Beatles they will let you get away with John Lennon was incredible
It wasn't so much "what she did," as much as he put her ahead of everything else in his life, and everyone else felt hurt by that. He would bring her to rehearsals and studio sessions, and the others felt that was inappropriate.
Why wouldn't he put her ahead? Have you never been in love? ❤
@@boettcher66 where did I say he was wrong?
Sorry man. I was way off there. You are correct, sir 👍
I’m not sure if you’ve done Jealous Guy yet. It’s my favourite.
I did
And the guy who murdered him is on here getting an album signed, its crazy
John Lennon was the best but all Beatles were great
If you get a chance to hear the Beatles sound in the 1960s compared to everyone else they blew everyone away

Some scumbag took a picture of John in a body bag its at the end of the video
Can you imagine how much great music we would have had made …. If he was not murdered
He would have made
Whatever Yoko hate is still out there is just ignorant bullshit. John couldn't possibly have lived her more.
Personally I think she is pretty low talent artistically, but she was not even remotely to blame for them breaking up. The others liked her just fine.
Yoko is a genius! ❤
