When he said "John waved at me and that was the last time I saw him..." I cried because I felt how grief-stricken he was. How sad and tragic! It shows that we have to cherish every single moment we can spend together because we don't know when a twist of fate arrives.
That's right- and protect yourself and your family if you're a really famous person!
Protect yourself and your family, even if you’re not a famous person
Paul Goresh passed away a few days ago RIP.
A real nice guy he was..had he not left that night especially after chapman said I wouldn't leave if I was u...u might not see him again.. Paul said what r u talking about, I see him all the time. chapman was like he might move away to spain and u won't c him again... something like that.. I forget his words but still crazy, in johns last interview he says Spain...... Hard to believe Paul passed away so young.. But him and John made beautiful memories and shared them with us fans!
update an auction house completed the sale of many of Paul's Beatles items, signed stuff original photos with the negatives, the pic of John signing Chapmans album ...this is what they told me by email
Hi,
In June we sold all of Paul's photos/negatives and the two books John signed for Paul. The last book that John signed for Paul sold for around $16,000.
Paul's photos are all well documented, I am sure a quick google search will show you what is out there.
paul asked me to handle his collection before he died and the estate honored his decision. The money is going to his estate.
_--------_---+------------------------
I felt the company was kind of rude to me but whatever I heard the pic of John signing for MDC went for over 36k...to me it be worth millions....the 16,000$ book, John had two books he wrote, he signed both for paul.
he got John to sign a whole lot of things in the time that he knew him...I wish Paul was still alive, I'd love to have spoke to him
at 4:46 John tries to lead Paul out and when Paul stops and talks John let's him go and seems very annoyed of Paul in those few seconds
@@ArronP Really ? Life is strange sometimes isn't it, although a huge loss to all who loved him, John must have made Paul a very happy and lucky man until that fateful night..... great fan story i had never heard before and how sad Paul has now passed too.
How old was paul?
Rest In Peace, Paul Goresh. 🕯🕊.
I've Always Liked What I've Seen About Paul. He Is Missed. God Bless.☮
I hate when they have to mention the jerk of all jerks name also known as asshole!
I Lived next door to Paul In Caldwell New Jersey For about 5 Years , He was a Great friend And had great stories Of John and the Beatles... Rest In Peace Paul Goresh.
2020 and I am crying over this ! John’s humanity touches our heart and it always will.
Thank you Paul Goresh for sharing that wonderful story with us .
God Bless Paul Goresh.
May He Rest in Peace.
God Bless.
Yes, well done Paul Goresh for conning your way into a stranger's house where there was a vulnerable young child!👍😀
This segment has real unsolved mysteries vibes. The interview style, the re-enactments, and the music is also used in UM. RIP John
What pisses me off the most about John's death was the fact that John's killer raised red flags with the security at the Dakota yet no one thought about calling the cops and having him searched.
Isht it? Apparently because he was 'technically' not on the driveway nobody could say anything to him- even though he had his autograph - why shouldn't he stand outside a building where famous people lived, in the cold of December for hours and hours instead of going inside somewhere in the warm? I mean, what's strange about that? Just because he'd asked a ton of questions over the past 2/3 days, met his idol but still didn't bugger off- u can't just accuse someone of potential harm/malice because of that- they have rights. If they do then do something terrible, well we'll have a 'big inquest,' 'minutes silence,' 'a huge memorial,' 'never forget the victim,' ' feel sad and terrible about it,' 'lots of ttibutes'- but do anything logical to stop it happening in the first place? NO CHANCE!🙂
John said to Chapman: Go and do what you gotta do!
The security didn't do their job and they are also responbile for lack of perfect security .
Lennon was kind to his fans.....
You have no idea he wasn't even real it was a guy playing the character of John Lennon read the or better yet listen to the 1980 play boy interview and the guy playing John Lennon fucks up when he is describing going to see Yoko Ono's art exhibit he refers to his self as " Lennon goes down " Who talks like that he fucked up and he knew it then they killed him off so called with a hoax shooting .and I am being serious look into the Tavistock institute of human relations you will be very surprised of what can be accomplished if you have peoples cooperation make them believe what you want them to believe the media is evil
@@calebproductions5970 Media is evil and Fake like CNN & MSNBC *lmao*

The look on Paul Goresh's face in the last picture with John says it all. John gave this man priceless memories.
Being a friend of Paul Goresh, living in the same complex he lived in, it is so sad that he is now gone. Paul did not offer much on his friendship with John Lennon, despite the fact he was friends, but he did divulge his scheme to penetrate his apartment as repairmen. Paul was a genuine fan, despite acting as a stalker, but he was the real deal. His account of his first meeting was at a cafe for about an hour, and after that meeting, John felt comfortable with him. John believed Paul was working for the media or the FBI and wanted no pictures taken of him. I recall Paul mentioning he wanted to destroy his camera. I was fortunate to meet Paul, for I had a project dealing with Bruce Springsteen, and the two of us came together, but little was done to make the most of this connection.
How was it meeting Bruce??
He conned his way into his apartment where a young child was living - what's good about that? If Lennon hadn't softened up in his attitude towards him, maybe less idiots would've hung around outside, encouraging scum like ******n. What is it with hanging round people's houses anyway?? I mean really, GET A LIFE. Buy a record and go to the gig and wait politely afterwards like everyone else if u want an autograph- uve no business being around peoples' residence anyway being bloody nosey parkers. Lauren Bacall used to scream at all the busy bodies outside the Dakota as well- and Leonard Bernstein and his daughter walked past the piece of vermin on their way in on Dec 8th, then sat in their apartment shaking for hrs after the heinous act was committed. Mind your own business and sort your life out instead of intruding on others!
Well you managed to get a nice 'nanedrop' in there didn't you, despite it having NOTHING to do with the subject(👍!) Goresh was a STALKER- fans buy the music, go to gigs, maybe try and get an autograph after the show, should the artist be willing. Intruding on their private space and family has NOTHING to do with their work whatsoever!
No matter how the story is told, it still boils down to Paul Goresh being a stalker.
@@MeeMee-gz5vp yes he was
People who are saying this guy is a creepy stalker obviously are forgetting Yoko stalked John for months before he would finally give in and go on a date with her while his wife was out of town. Just read Cynthia's book..!
Yoko was Lennon's creepiest stalker...until MDC.
Really yoko was like that? Wow I did not know that
He's alive, he wanted out because of all the stalkers.
But she didn’t shoot him 5 times you idiot
Lennon hooked up with Yoko because she was the only woman dumb enough to go with him. He knew he was a puke, so he took her. Lennon had no virtues at all. He was lucky to become part of the Beatles. Jesus Christ.
Rest In Peace Paul Goresh. Thank you for your photos and sharing your memories of what was clearly an amazing time for you.
Oh good, well I'm glad he had an :amazing time' conning his way into somewhere he had no business being- with a young child at risk! Again, sorry he passed on, absolutely, but he was completely out of order in what he did.
@@damianbroderick3913. At least he didn’t kill him like Mark did
it could of been slaughter, Paul could of been someone who wanted to murder John...he was in his apartment!! crazy when u think of it like that
This is a beautiful tribute to John. Much love to Paul Goresh's family. I did not know that he had passed away.
Linda Ellerbee did a great job with this special presentation. She is a smart , savvy and beautiful newswoman.
It's truly amazing how John after so many times kept telling Paul Goresh to bug off and leave him alone that they became literally became the best of friends!
THIS is a beautiful movie, a true movie of one of the saddest days of my life! RIP both of you.
I remember watching this program when it first aired. Thanks for posting.
Me too wasn't the title of the show called the Story Behind the Story? John Lennon's music still makes me happy.
Thank you all for your comments on my posting of this video. I met Paul Goresh at Beatlefest NYC in 2011. We talked about an hour about John Lennon and shared some of his memories of him with me. Paul autographed my Summer 1980 photo book with his photos and a nice note to me. We kept in touch until before his death.We spoke on the phone for the last time in 2017.
Chris Antonucci 👍
I get the feeling Paul G was a genuine fan who was in awe of Lennon. He seems very sincere & imagine they were good friends until fuxkface turned up & ruined everything
Video espectacular!
Gracias por subirlo.
Una pena interminable la falta de John en nuestras vidas.
Can we just take a moment to say that these reenactments are very convincing
I think that John would not have tolerated living in the 2010's ... In a world with selfies!!....In a world where, every 10 meters, a guy with his cell phone is approaching him to take a photo
Gabriel Vivar In Sweden all women walk around looking in their mobile phone never looks at anyone that behaviour signals i am not really here i am on my way to something better i am loved someone needs me somewhere else! 😊
....... most other celebs have no problems, it's a small price to pay for stardom.......beats a 9to5 factory job....One can easily avoid these selfish selfie junkies.....
He would've been a lot older too, possibly mellowed a good bit.
@@PASTA_ANDBACON123_PANTS or he could have been an old cranky prick and attack anyone who comes near him with his yoko cane .
@@PAULLONDEN Oh that old chestnut," You don't have to work 9 to 5 therefore I have a right to hassle you whenever I like!" No., You. Don't.
You have to admire John's patience with this guy Paul. Goresh was extremely fortunate, I don't know that I would have been as welcoming to this type of persistent, John Candy looking crazy man. And to think Lennon let a friendship start with a guy who sneaked his way into his home with such deceit, is perplexing in itself. Go figure!..hats off to Lennon again.
Wizard 1. What movie is this?
Wizard 1 John knew but he also knew that Paul wouldn’t harm him. He had a sense something was up with the killer though. John was smart
No he was extremely silly- so but it's true. U don't befriend con men when u have a young child at home- ever.
@@matildaharden1064 How the hell did he know that Goresh wouldn't harm him? How? He wasn't some comic 'super-hero' with 'soidey-senses' - and if he felt something was up that night why didn't he just get back in the limo and call the bloody police?
Damn this almost made me cry
Darrin Nicholson,you are not alone my friend. :)
Still One Of The Top Ten Life Changing Events of my life. A part of me was taken away by some bastard who never should have gotten a gun. I saw this on TV many years ago. Still makes me angry and makes me cry. After all this time, i still can't resolve the answer WHY???
I can imagine that is how the autograph signing took place. No other fans around. Only the three of them present.
Which is where you're completely wrong- they- J and Y- were about to get a lift with the RKO people- Dave Sholin and co who'd just interviewed them in The Dakota- as their limo hadn't shown up on time. There were actually quite a few people about, it was around 5pm.
Paul I’m so amazed you saw John Lennon back in 1979 before he died . My dad and mom loved his songs
God bless your soul John Lennon. You are deeply missed.
Wish the actor playing John could have tried to do John's voice.
I find he sounds Irish
It would have sounded forced. It sounds reasonably natural that way.
John Lennon we love you rip
Remarkable story sad, Remember where I was when I heard the unbelievable news on the radio.
Working at the BBC bookstore in the receiving department and I was only 21, working the part time college job...really shook me up still can see myself
Worked with Paul for many years, and he was a great friend..
John freely walked about the streets of New York City by himself with no security all the time. He could have been shot numerous times in the past by anyone wanting to harm him. He said he loved New York City BECAUSE he could walk the streets without people bugging him all the time. In NYC it is common for people to see celebrities walking about, so people left them alone. It was the out of towners and tourists that went bonkers upon sighting a celebrity and would bug them. David Bowie did the same thing frequently walking the streets of NYC by himself.
That's true because in NY they treat celebrites who live there like regular people. I have seen many celebrities, but I respected their privacy when I lived up there & worked as a messenger. I have met a few, & they seem down to earth, just fellow New Yorkers sharing the same city we loved.
Lennon could've walked down the streets of London unmolested by annoying fans as well had he'd stayed, and probably would've lived beyond 1980. "Beatlemania" was long over, even before he moved to the states. John and Yoko moved to NYC because Yoko tricked John into believing that they were coming to get custody of Kyoko, the daughter Yoko finally remembered she had (after abandoning Kyoko to stalk Lennon for 2 years). John almost admitted as much when he gave an interview to Spin magazine in 1975.:
*Q: Why do you want to live in New York now? Why in the U.S?*
*John: "I only decided to live here after I'd moved here. I didn't leave England with the intention...I left everything in England. I didn't bring any clothes. I just came for a visit and stayed."*
Which sounds to me like Yoko had John believing that they were just coming to pick up Kyoko and return to England as a family.Then like they always did when it involved Yoko, they revised the story to say that the public in England was mean and racist to Yoko, and they came where the anti-war/peace movement was strongest, and they came because New York was heart of the art world where Yoko wanted to be. Lennon should've stayed in England but then John's British family could've more easily helped him [Yoko translation: interfered with her domination and unrelenting control over her "prize"] and Yoko wasn't about to let that happen. John never set foot in Britain again. Even when he felt so homesick for all things British.
There's only 2 or 3 ppl who had a hard time living in NYC during there years that I know of.
John Lennon he wasn't as followed and hassled as the next guy and he was the one who said he could go to movies or restaurants and nobody bothered him..
John f Kennedy Jr. And his wife Carolyn
The paps hunted John down everywhere he went..ppl stayed outside his apartment for days jfkjr was followed constantly.. more than Lennon, and Lennon himself said he had alot of freedom in NYC John Jr grew up in NYC so that was his place ya know? Plus his wife who was pretty much a recluse coming up to there 3 year wedding in sept 1999. She hated the ppl who stalked them. She was depressed over all this...John had to try help her but the photographers were unforgiving
@@waterfalls5194 chapman would have went str8 to england or the ends of the earth to get Lennon. He travelled from Hawaii , not across the street you moron.
Finally!! 👏👏
John was simply too good! Too good for the sickness that’s humanity!
Some how, some way, I hold Goresh minutely responsible for not alerting John of this kooky Chapman who may be dangerous. Although, watching this clip, I don't know who's actions looked more alarming..
Then why didn't he stick around then that night ah some friend to John. When he opened the door to u and let him take pictures of him etc. It was said that u said that this jerk said to you while leaving how u may never see him again. Um so why did u leave ah WHY!
Yea you weaseled your way in just like you weaseled your way out!
How could he have known? In a way he was stalking Lennon too. With a different intent but he could have thought that Chapman just wanted a picture too..
Yoko stalked Lennon too.
Bearing gifts of heroin (to a man who was already a drug addict)
To break up his marriage and family (and ride on his back for fame for herself). Next stop The Beatles studio with a wrecking ball!
Water Falls
Yes Joko indeed did stalk Lennon with the drugs, witchcraft and sex she managed to take him from his family 😪
Wonderful story. I would have loved to have met John and got his autograph. What happened was so tragic and senseless.
Me too I would have wanted to have met John in person
2 stalkers. One crazier than the other.
What a wonderful story that ended so tragically. I am glad Paul shared her story with us.
Lennon just wanted to be left alone.....
Heavy Jay it's absolutly normal
I think you're right and wrong. He wanted to be left alone but wanted to embrace people as well. Downsides to both.
Perfectly human. As was John. Take away fame and he's like all of us. Human. Peace and love.
@@davidaston5773 - Good point!
@@antimurphy8212 Thank you I appreciate it. Hope you (and everyone here) had a great Xmas and here's to a peace and love 2020 ✌❤🤝
Paul Goresh seems to me to be a remarkable character 👏
What a tribute❤haunting but a major part of Rock n Roll history. Thank you for sharing
The actor playing Lennon did not even try to sound like him. I wonder why?
Rest In Peace, John Lennon & Paul Goresh.
God Bless.
Something tells me there's something about this guy that's not genuine. I'm thinking he manufactured this "friendship" with Lennon, when actually, it was more of a case of him stalking John, and John telling him in a nice way to please go away.
very true,,,,when paul said ill go away away for good if you want john thought to himself if i dont strike up a somewhat friendship with him he could come back mad and do something...so it was more out of fear than anything else that kept it alive..paul should have been arrested and had a restraining order against him when he got into john apartment acting like a repairman
Don't worry it was fake it was a hoax
Trust Me, I'm Black! hi i know this guy goresh. personally ( unfortunately) and he is a no good manipulative creep and you are absolutely right
TrustMe,I'mBlack - Maybe Paul Goresh embellished the story a little, but the proof is that he got the autograph of John (more than one, actually) and a photo together with John putting his arm around him. Also it's true that Paul Goresh's photo of John was used for the 45 rpm "Watching The Wheels" single sleeve. So there is some likelihood that Paul was telling the truth about his winning John over.
If John didn't like him then why did he use his picture for his single? Also he would tell him when he was ready for their 'photo shoots' it does seem he had a soft spot for the guy.
That was a sad video,as I, was a fan throughout my childhood and teens. But,that's ok too,because "In the sweet by and by (we shall meet on that beautiful shore)." I know that John,is in a good place.
This movie almost reminds me of a unsolved mysterys episode...
2:57 The astonishment to see Lennon face to face !
That’s what I’ll probably do too if I ever saw him hhahahahahahah
This dude wasent a creepy stalker..He was young and this was a probably an awesome adventure .Although he was a little pushy
Do be quiet. Please.
That's an incredible story! First time I've ever heard about Paul Goresh. I see some people all over the guy, and I agree, his fandom took him to do some borderline creepy things, but come on, Lennon got over it, and apparently began to enjoy their little friendship. I think John had the final say on this guy.
But how different are the times. My God, in today's world, there would be 50 paparazzi stalking that spot 24/7. And yet, back then there was only this one fan who thought to do this.
'BORDERLINE??!' He conned his way into HIS HOME you idiot!! What's 'borderline' about that,?? Stop making excuses for people who make other people's lives a misery!
This isn't the actaul Dakota Apartment Building but it looks very similar to it.
I wonder where this was filmed at.
John had his hair restyled in a sort of 'Teddy Boy' style in the morning of his last day - you can see it pretty well in the horrible Chapman photo. The actor here can't even get the hairstyle right - John and Yoko climbing over each other as they headed for their car doesn't ring true either.
Arrivederci roma this is what John says when he closes Paul's tool box. And later Dec 8th Paul says he snapped another picture with his eyebrows up... But we don't see that one.. we see the other famous one, but I'd love to see the few pics Paul took
Two words: security guard and second of all John should've immediately reprimanded the building doorman _for not_ double checking Goresh's story & eventually permitted _anyone_ into John & Yoko's home.
I really love it! God bless Paul and John together
The guy playing Lennon dosent even try to have a British accent ?
Bob F. Exactly!
Irish accent
Paul you really were a friend.
So sad Breaks my Heart
TRIVIA: At one time it was said that John Lennon was the most photographed person in the world.
Oh how very sad. The whole thing. Such a sweet guy. I'll never forget that horrible day.
I have now learned that Paul Goresh is dead and I am very sad ... now they will find themselves up there as good friends forever ... r.i.p.
The number 9 was so prevalent in his life........killed on the 8th in the U.S......it was the 9th in the UK!
And nine years since he moved to New York. One of Y's spiritualists spoke of 'a dark spirit,'- she admitted that herself- so why not respond if that's what she truly believed/believes in? Her son's bodyguard spoke to her of his concern of her giving out details of their daily routine over the radio- she said she was 'concerned with record sales first, not security- this has been noted, so is not a 'she broke up the B's!' response.
What's that piano song at 13:00?? Idk it's crazy when u miss someone u never knew....I can't imagine what ppl who knew him felt..
Goresh was a stalker, pure and simple.
Many celebrities have to deal with fans hanging out in front of their buildings, etc. Not a good thing.
Very fine line between fan and creepy psycho stalker.
Seems Paul Goresh was was quite the stalker...He paints himself a lot different in other documentaries. Wow,,,,What a freak.
He made himself vulnerable! This one work out but as we know that availability eventually did him in ! I know all this is true cause that July 1980 I was in The Dekotas n met the Jose the guard outside n he went to call him so he would come down and meet my friend and I but unfortunately for us he was in palm beach with family ! Jose told us of how friendly he was with fans and that he wouldn't have hesitated to come down and meet us ! Later that year my heart was broken when I left the football game MNF patriots at Dolphins and put on the radio to learn that a crazy fan had just killed John Lennon outside the Dekotas apartments ! Still wish things would of been different n he stayed living in England !
I would like to see the other pic besides the famous one we have seen forever.,.cause Paul took more than 1 of John signing for MDC
Who are the actors?
they did a pretty good job. esp the moustache guy.
Quite good!..but Goreshs demeanor makes it look like an old SCTV parody...lol
god I’m about to puk- uuurrrrggggggghhh
You know this “J Lennon” probably had a few bucks stashed away since he had a VCR back 1980..Just a hunch
even further back...1979 the day Paul met lennon
It's a thin line.
WARNING !
DO NOT MENTION THE NAME, OR SHOW PICTURES OF JOHNS KILLER
WHY? BECAUSE HE DID FOR FAME. LETS NOT HELP HIM. ITS IRONIC that he became one of the most hated people in the world, and John was against hate. I don’t hate his killer I feel sorry for him.
Let's not forget that Yoko had the EXACT SAME BURING DESIRE to get FAME off Lennon just like MDC! And she acted on that burning desire to the detriment of John Lennon.
In 1980, AFTER kidnap and death threats to the Lennon family, Yoko fired John's bodyguards days before his murder. Then refused to allow a grief stricken teenage Julian the comfort of having his mother travel with him for moral support. But here is the real kicker:
*YOKO REFUSED TO PROVIDE BODYGUARDS FOR JULIAN TRAVELING ALONE WHEN NO ONE KNEW IF THERE WERE OTHER DETERMINED KILLERS LURKING AND WAITING FOR THEIR CHANCE TO MURDER MORE LENNONS!*
The phony "peace and love" hypocrite had NONE for Julian Lennon!
Thats all this video does !
@@waterfalls5194 How would you feel if you found out John is still alive??!!!
@@thelightwarriordiariesxsup6781 I'd be thrilled. Then I'd be like...
*WTF!!??*
*Where your ass been?!* Do you know what your "widow" been up to and how shitty she's treated your family? You got a lotta "splainin" to do mister and it better be good!
*What??!!...Yoko had you committed because you were leaving her, taking Sean and moving back to Britain?!*
Then I'd wake up and turn off the continuously playing song, *'Just Like Starting Over'.* ... and weep.
11:28 anybody know the name of that piano piece? when John signed MDC record, there's such a conflict between Paul's version and the rko team that finished there interview...I'll make a video soon clear it up also the last pic of John was in the morgue before being cremated
The record john lennon signed for MDC was Double Fantasy
@@TheIanverse yeah I know that, I was asking if anyone knew that piano part music
Too bad Paul didn't alert John to this weird guy outside but at that time who would have thought something would happen to John.
he was right there when Lennon signed his record.... so he said John looked at him and he felt this was something strange...prob didn't think much of it, but they both thought MDC demeanor was strange....I know had I came home after signing the LP and this guys still waiting till John arrives home, I'm sure John remembered signing the LP earlier and prob didn't think much as he walked past MDC inside the archway where coward MDC shot him in the back 4 times., Lennon should of said something to MDC idk what, but like what r u waiting for? even Jose Perdomo on duty that night, u think he would of said to MDC go home, or u know..... all the what ifs ugh
@Arron P.
The doorman was a suspicious character, what was he doing that he could not see Chapman get into a combat stance and aim. Some people claim he was identified as a Cuban assassin part of the CIA.
There is a video on RUclips saying eight shots were fired at Lennon, either way too much does not make sense. Chapman had help getting the hollow point bullets and was being financed by some powerful group. Because a unemployed security guard could not afford all those trips to New York and around the world.
@@ArronP I read in a book where that scum MDC said that " Lennon printed him alright" in other words When Lennon came back home he seen MDC and gave him a look like what is this guy still doing here? Seconds later he got shot. RIP John Lennon I love you and thanks for all the great music and your intelligence and great sense of humor!🎸🎸🎸🥁🚶🚶🚶🚶
I live in New Jersey and I'm not too far from where John used to live. It's only about a half an hour away so it's pretty much around the block. In fact I'm only a few minutes aaay from Staten Island. If John was still alive today there might have been a good chance I might have been able to meet him.
Here Paul says that when John handed the album back to MDC and asked if he wanted anything else? Is that ok? And MDC said yeah and backed off..but in the 2010 doc that's on here Paul said MDC nodded, he didn't say a word he just nodded. His story varies but he's been dead 2 yrs now I believe rip john and Paul
The acting here is top drawer 😂😂
Paul Goresh passed away on January 9, 2018.
Paul that is so cool,I think John needed a friend,peace
Great story- very sad.
If Paul was there so much I'm pretty sure John would look annoyed coming home and there's Paul and who else taking pics, I would be annoyed...he's prob like I just want to go in..ya know?
13:00 anyone know the name of that piano song?
RIP John and Paul. Even though the actor playing John Lennon doesn't really look or sound like him, I find it believable that he would want people to treat him as a man and not as a Beatle. I really think that if you treated him as John Lennon and saw past the Beatle image, he would respond much more favorably. What I know of John Lennon is that he never turned down an autograph and was extremely gracious to fans. Most of the time they were too busy to talk a whole lot to him. I know of one story right before he was killed and there may even be a RUclips video of it where a fan tells John how much she loves "Double Fantasy" and you see John light up and say "Thank you". It's very genuine and he really meant it I think. Don't kid yourself, though. He knew he was a Beatle even when he was no longer a Beatle and he was extremely proud of that, too. But you had to get to know the man first and I think he would probably be the first to tell you that he's not perfect, don't put him on a pedestal, and that he and Yoko were a couple like most couples. I don't know many celebrities, but the few that I have interacted with, they appreciate when you treat them with respect and when you don't see them as gods or goddesses. They're human and I think that's how John wanted to be treated. Had he lived longer, I'm sure that John would have opened up more with Paul about his Beatles days.
There's also that story in May Pang's book where a mentally ill fan stalks John's house and thinks he can be cured by looking into John's eyes. John's response was something like "I don't want anybody to think I can cure him. I'm just John, that's all I am." John does end up meeting this guy. I think it's the same guy from the Imagine movie?
God bless Goresh without him we would not have some of the best photos of the last few months of John's life
No, we might have pics of John's 'Woman' video- the one without his widow sat alone on a Central Park bench, and shown on TV New Year of 1981 and his WORLD TOUR DATES ARE ANNOUNCED and ticket lines are going crazy! Top.of the Pops in England finally has him as a guest again after 10 plus yrs as the new single gets to Number 1. 'Watching the Wheels' and 'Im Losing You' also push high up the charts as those early 'negative' reviews of D Fantasy start to look a bit 'hasty.' Cheap Trick and Bob Dylan are invited as guests on the tour and Milk and Honey provides even more song choice for the live shows. Ringo has a fantastic hit with 'Nobody Told Me.' He and John had a grt time putting the Beatles' drummer's album together apparently. The ice is even thawing a bit with George despite the barbed lyrics in All Those Years Ago in response to John's negative comments about the 'I, Me, Mine' book. Paul has been seen at some of the shows in Japan and hopes to meet up with his former colleague at Earl's Court Arena in London, when the tour reaches there in the summer. Plans for 'The Long and Winding Road' documentary are starting to circulate, as Neil Aspinwall has hinted at something in the offing in the next few years. After Goresh was cautioned and given a court order to 'stay away' from Lennon and his family, far less 'fans' have been seen hanging around The Dakota since, if any at all at times. Some 'peace' and quiet has finally been given a chance to the high profile residents of the N York residence!
*Aspinall.
And without Paul we wouldn’t find out who killed him
Paul passed away a while ago, But hey!
He can take all the photos he wants of John in heaven!
All i can say is,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, my eyes are leaking, and my heart is crying
All I can do is cry
Misleading. Watching the Wheels single came out AFTER John’s death. So John didn’t pick his photo for the cover.
They were preparing it for release while John was still alive, but it was released after he died.
Does anybody know what this movie was called? When was this on TV or something?
rest in peace paul goresh........
Goresh at 20 missed the whole Beatles thing. Lennon had not released music for years. So not sure why Goresh became so obsessed.
You know, a lot of people who have never lived in the Beatles' decade (including my gen Z) are still obsessed with their legacy, so it’s not surprising that there were fans 20 years after the Beatlemania era.
Paul reminds me of an overly eager golden retriever; a big, sloppy moron that just wants love. He reminds me of John Candy's character in Planes, Trains and Automobiles.
The Story Behind The Story on NBC
Where does all this come from. Who is the sign off on its release?
If only John's car had driven into the courtyard. :(
It is strange that Lennon could walk around NY virtually unnoticed, but Goresh literally stalked him until him & Lennon were on talking terms. Chapman was a different kind of stalker.
So was Yoko. Detrimental to John's health and well being.
At least he did some nice fotos ,and had a life time chance to chat things with John...
Pretty sad ...
years ago after The Beatles Broke up. John finds a new Paul to Hangout with.
RIP Paul goresh I find John's accent sounds irish out of all the ppl on this planet...the guy could of put a British accent on. the building in here looks like the Dakota, but it's not... the security guys little booth ain't here
Security guy?? Excuse me? They stand/sit in all those little silver 'tube' things all done up to nines and giving it the 'yes sir, no madam' everytime someone arrives in their limo, yet despite practically every other person walking around being allowed to own a gun- they're completely unarmed??! I mean, what is that all about? Hence he's stood there watching an innocent, unarmed individual being shot to death - and not be able to do a thing about it!
Here's another with him: John Lennon - Documentary
Only ever seen one photo of Lennon & Chapman. Goresh said he took two.
