I don´t think he´s naive, I think the rest of us underestimate how much our mentality has changed throughout history. Look up stats on how many people die in wars per year, and you´ll see a decline over time (in the short run there can be ups and downs). We live in very peaceful times compared to where we´ve been, we live in peaceful times compared to 1969 when this was recorded. So what is the reason for this? Shouldn´t we be killing each other more? We have much better weapons, we are more people, we are more mixed. There should be many more conflicts and many more deaths. Something else must´ve changed. I believe what has changed is our mentality, our mindset. Exactly what the "naive" Lennon was talking about! I often see this comment that Lennon is naive for promoting peace, yet I have a feeling he´s done more for actual peace than any other artist in history. For example, how does songs like Imagine, Give Peace a Chance, All You Need is Love affect a person, how does it affect a child? We believe gangster rap influence violence, why don´t we believe songs about peace and understanding influence peaceful behavior? Most likely this historical change in mentality is due to many different reasons, and many different people who has pushed us in this direction, but what changed us for the better was certainly not cynical people who thought people that actually did something were naive. Culture shape minds, minds cause good/evil.
No one is laughing at peace..I think everyone is laughing because John and Yoko go about it in a daft, irritating way..lol..and they were bullshite. Yoko didn't show"love" to Julian when his father died. John use to hit people and Cyn..is that peace? No one like war mate.
John was a great man. He’s intellectually free here, and he’s a literal genius. Very far out, but not crazy. An idealist in the vein of Viktor Frankl. John’s job on Earth was to perturb and inspire people out of their ruts.
No not a great man he abandoned his kid Julian who still has trust issues over it years later into adulthood cause if "great John " honestly I'm glad someone in the end taught him a lesson .it's called karma .he cheated on his wife then on yoko then dumped may pang who he stung along and he was a heroin addict and not taking his son's calls ! yea great man ! !
50 years later, we see that this couple has really planted a seed of letting people to think peace instead of violent, since they released their song Imagine in 1971.
At 8:24 Yoko sings. Yoko was from a very influential old Japanese family. Her classmate was Prince Akihito the future Emperor of Japan. How did she end up with John? Was she his handler?
Please, do you have the David Frost Show interview with Franklin j. Schaffner, Michael Jayston, Janet Suzman, Tom Baker, for "Nicholas and Alexandra" (31 December 1971)? I've been looking everywhere for this, it must be extremely interesting. Is it available to buy or to watch? Thank you so much. Great channel, subscribed. 💗
Now I see where Chris Rock got that bit from in his movie pootie Tang when they played the record and there was nothing playing....complete silence....and it was a hit lmaooo
At this moment, John was rebelling against everyone, The Beatles, society, even himself. He was the master of writing beautiful, melodic 3 minutes songs. He knew this was garbage. I guess he was looking for a reaction. Wanted to shock people.
@@Inglese001you're right. I heard this album its daft..rubbish. Lennon and yoko were bullshite...lol.. they were bored so let's throw acorns for peace or stay in bed 🙄
Well all I can say is this?... no wonder The Beatles broke up!, looking at this is clearly why?, whatever John was doing was clear to him but for the rest of us including the others 3 members of the band was totally bewildering!!, yes we can all understand (somewhat?) what John was trying to express to the world but Yoko's intense screaming was definitely something that was beyond tolerance!!😱 , in fact this was clearly beyond The Beatles?, Revolution number 9 on the White Album was bad enough but hearing the Two Virgins & Life with the Lions albums were beyond Revolution number 9??, it was 1969 & it was an entirely different John Lennon compared to the 1 we loved & adored, I just wished that John had lived on beyond December 8th 1980 cos despite his weird ways with Yoko he still would've done heaps more wonderful music even up to this very day but we are all deprived cos of 1 miserable lonely germ wasting his days away in a prison cell, John always wanted peace in this crazy world 🌎, let's hope he is IN peace although sadly not the way he planned?, Rest in peace John Lennon.🙏
Honestly I think John's completely delusional about Hitler and yes that's the thing I'm focusing on criticizing him on telling a young Adolf Hitler peace over and over again would not have done anything to prevent world war II if he was shown why hateing Jewish people and other people were wrong that would have done a lot more to change Hitler for the better
Honestly I want to say John is wrong because you see a bunch of Democrats talking about how much they want peace and they want Justice and all that crap and they're all basically miniature Hitler's and even the president and Joe Biden is basically a miniature Hitler so no John you're full of shit
You've got to admire John's passion and childlike naviety. At least he tried. Just look at the state of the world now.

The fact that most people laugh at peace more than war; shows how crazy this world is.....

No one could attain John's level of fame and adoration without going slightly insane.
He was bat shit crazy.
Sorry but you have to be a little insane to create what John did in his life.
Lennon himself went insane.
Paul??
Lennon was abusive and a contradiction. A fraudulent musician.... brilliant but bullshite mate.
Always loved both his singing and speaking voice
❤
They were so sincere and real. Love this interview!

The more I learn about Johns bizarre character the more I grow fond of him
To think he was only 29 at the time of his interview. Way ahead of his age in terms of his speech and insight.
Aunq físicamente tambn parecía de 38, el solía aparentar más edad de la q tenia

Hi there, I don't have the interview unfortunately, but if I get hold of it, I'll upload it for you. Many thanks 👍👌
Do you know where I can get footage of the live performance if it exists? The track is actually a masterpiece of listened from the beginning.
I have no idea I'm sorry, maybe search Google and you might find it 😉
'Only people can change the world'
This interview must have taken place near the time of Abbey Road cos John has the same look.
Yes looks about mid 69
He's on speed on this particular occasion 🍺🍹🤣🤣🤣🤣
That same great look♡
Yes indeed. Must have been around August/Sepetmber 1969.....just around the time he 'handed his notice in....'
It was taped June 14 1969.
07:45 he predicts the future here, where anyone can record and upload content
love john lennon
John deserved an Oscar just for finessing the public into buying that record of screaming !
I actually kind of like the B side.
Oh Lord Jesus , I believe they were doing 🍄 😊😊
Given what's well documented about that woman I'm in no doubt that she took measures to ensure Lennons short attention span didn't include her
All is vanity..
Good Halloween song
John at 9:05: - thinking what is this???
I adored John Lennon - but this stuff is beyond what the most ardent fans can take
I like what John said about Hitler. Imagine..(no pun) Yoko's wailing as a ringtone😅smh..
Wow, John actually hated Yoko's yelling, but he loved her too much to say it... His body language sucked at lying though.
Is this new to RUclips
It may be. I don't know really
Yoko oh no
They so jealous of John lol 😅😮😅😅🎉
The naysayers lol
So true you have to start somewhere but who could know it’s all in vain and always will be x
You’ve got to be kidding ,,,,,,🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯🤯
His body language when listening to yoko screaming haha
Now I see where Chris Rock got that bit from in his movie pootie Tang when they played the record and there was nothing playing....complete silence....and it was a hit lmaooo
if Yoko hadn't have been married to John Lennon she wouldn't have been on a big television show like The David Frost show.
I can believe they put that garbage on a record and sold it !
At this moment, John was rebelling against everyone, The Beatles, society, even himself. He was the master of writing beautiful, melodic 3 minutes songs. He knew this was garbage. I guess he was looking for a reaction. Wanted to shock people.
@@Inglese001you're right. I heard this album its daft..rubbish. Lennon and yoko were bullshite...lol.. they were bored so let's throw acorns for peace or stay in bed 🙄
It sounds like John and yoko were tortured in a dungeon
Didn't know the 2 Virgins album was all noise, glad I didn't buy it .John was out of his mind during this time period.
Bet they didn't sell millions of records of that ...noise.
It was a big hit and sold 12 million
@@knockedoutloaded279 Sure it was 😆. In your dreams. Nobody bought that shit
Is Yoko dead?
Nope .....90yr old Yoko still going.

John seems incoherent and nuts !
Seems pretty clear to me. More clear than most people then or today for sure. It’s called critical thinking
@@hw343434 no not clear at all unless you were on heroin like he was 24/7..like duh remember he had an addiction?? It shows "clearly "
@@hw343434 shows where your brain is at .if you call "talking all over the place critical thinking then your nuts too
I followed him, but I don't believe I've ever seen a more hyper person!
@@hw343434you're right about John mate.👍🏻
You are sick jackthis

He’s right about valuing someone since they’re young instead for putting them down so they feel a need to rebel as adults as Hitler did in his own way
Beatles fan here...this is weird crap...I'm being nice
They could be quite odd, could John and Yoko..
God bless Mark David Chapman
🤡
Lennon attracted Mark Chapman. His lifestyle, his energy and karma, he and Yoko, had they lived differently, that Dec 8 would not have happened.
