not a Lennon/Beatles at all whatsoever. but these are some of the best lyrics written.

Imagine there's no Heaven
It's easy if you try
No hell below us
Above us only sky
Imagine all the people
Living for today

Imagine there's no countries
It isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people
Living life in peace

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will be as one

Imagine no possessions
I wonder if you can
No need for greed or hunger
A brotherhood of man
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world

You may say that I'm a dreamer
But I'm not the only one
I hope someday you'll join us
And the world will live as one

RIP Johnny.

One of my all-time favorites by Lennon:

RIP John.

I wish someone would put a bullet in David Chapman head.

I can't help but try to imagine (no pun intended) what the last 30 years in the music/entertainment industry would have been like had he not died so young.

I remember watching the MNF game and the game being interrupted with the news that Lennon has been shot. You know you're big time when MNF is interrupted.

I was watching the game and Howard Cosell made the announcement. Very sad day. He was so talented like Julian said you just wonder.....

Did this just happen today?

I don't see anything about him dying on the news. 70 years though is a pretty good run.

Boss, if I recall correctly, Cosell was quite choked up when he announced the news...

Yes he was, I thought he was going to start crying. Very emotional.
