John Lennon in general Reviews

I was only one when news filtered through that john lennon had become a legend. I write this opinion as a 23 year old lover of everything lennonish. You really cannot complain about lennons influence on music. As a beatle he wrote about love and as a solo artist he sang about peace. There are over two hundred beatles songs and ...  Read the complete review

John Lennon was loved by millions of people, hated by millions more, and yet he was very important to both groups. He was a musician, an artist, a social philosopher, a political activist, a father, a lover, and a man. He was loved for his music, and his ability to take simple emotions and communicate them effectively to the world. He was an ...  Read the complete review

Why does the man who died so tragically twenty years ago still find a special place in peoples hearts? Why is it that a man who seemingly had no social skills, who had a biting sense of humour, and who, along with his wife, contributed heavily to the split up off the infamous Beatles grasp our devotion and inspire us? One of his ...  Read the complete review

This is my opinion of the song 'Imagine' by John Lennon: - I honestly believe that Imagine by John Lennon is one of the best and most important songs ever written and performed, I'm sure many of you will agree with me about that. I'll tell you why: The song is emotional, and more importantly truthful. Although, ...  Read the complete review

I reckon that the great John Lennon has to be the best recording artist of all time! He is a top guy. Don't know about the beard though. It's such a shame that a great artist such as Lennon died. Freddy Mercury, another great musician that died. Never mind, now they rock up above! John the lyracist and Freddie, well...being Freddy! ...  Read the complete review

I can't really speak for John Lennon's impact as a campaigner for peace, or an icon in general, as that's not my area of expertise. Nor, come to think of it, is his music, but what I have heard has impressed me substantially. Imagine is probably one of my favourites songs of all time (that makes me and a billion others) but Jealous ...  Read the complete review

I saw another review on Lennon and wanted to leave a comment on it. But, in light of the fact that my comment would probably only have been read by the review's originator, I decided to write my own opinion to redress the balance. First of all, was Lennon the genius behind the Beatles or was it McCartney? Read the other review and you ...  Read the complete review

Thank-you to the Manics for that quote, a brilliant act of Generation Terrorism. Seriously though, the extent of Lennon's utter rubbishness really only becomes apparent when you compare his solo career to that of the mighty Sir Paul McCartney. And also examine Abbey Road, the first half of which was written by John, the second half by ...  Read the complete review

John Lennon and Bob Dylan were the two most influential, representative, and ingenius song writers ever to grace this earth with their presence. Looking back upon the last decade of music, it is my personal opinion that there has yet to be a single 90s/00 artist who begins to compare to the greats of the 60s&70s. The power of the messages that ...  Read the complete review
