<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB9RyEVwfIoP5JaYnqGTo0sZH0KXVdBrAk_ITAXhEAL2uBXF2LKsj7eLToL9aRv_rCWuNKJY-wDPELbzl5suTkAlFbaWwKSG5HDK-tZgwwaZy5n70R-wv8gN0RXl9wJydZYpc2rjkpmHM/s1600-h/John+Lennon+%28000%29.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5290919682527314050" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjB9RyEVwfIoP5JaYnqGTo0sZH0KXVdBrAk_ITAXhEAL2uBXF2LKsj7eLToL9aRv_rCWuNKJY-wDPELbzl5suTkAlFbaWwKSG5HDK-tZgwwaZy5n70R-wv8gN0RXl9wJydZYpc2rjkpmHM/s400/John+Lennon+(000).jpg" style="cursor: pointer; float: left; height: 240px; margin: 0pt 10px 10px 0pt; width: 320px;" /></a><br />
His early years were certainly not easy. His father worked away for long periods on a ship, and essentially he was raised by his aunt. As he did not have the guidance of his parents in his formative years, it is perhaps understandable that John Lennon became disruptive at school.<br />
The turning point in his life though came when he developed a strong interest in skiffle, a type of rock and roll music, during his teenage years.<br />
It was while playing for a skiffle band he had formed at school that he met <span style="font-weight: bold;">Paul McCartney</span>. The two struck up an immediate friendship, and developed a fine partnership, writing and composing songs. After performing under several band names the pair, along with <span style="font-weight: bold;">George Harrison </span>and Pete Best, settled on calling themselves <span style="font-weight: bold;">The Beatles</span>. The drummer, Pete Best, was replaced later by <span style="font-weight: bold;">Ringo Starr</span>, and soon afterwards The Beatles were signed by George Martin for EMI records.<br />
Lennon and McCartney were the creative force behind the group, and the amount of quality material they produced was amazing. They began touring the world and were hugely popular, especially in the US.<br />
Around 1966, Lennon met <span style="font-weight: bold;">Yoko Ono</span>. Although the couple were immediately attracted to each other, John was married to Cynthia Powell and they had a child.<br />
John and Yoko eventualy married in 1969. In those early years together, they devoured a fair quantity of psychedelics such as LSD, and stories of violence towards one another were in the press.<br />
In 1970, Paul McCartney left the Beatles, causing tension between himself and John. A year later Lennon released the hugely popular <span style="font-weight: bold;">‘Imagine’</span> album. Together he and Yoko campaigned for world peace. Calling for an end to the Vietnam War offended the American government deeply, and he nearly lost his green card as a result.<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeVsMEY6Ua_U6AqV712ccpQVAbpKhhXU7EmIfleZT6ai1ReAfQVB1N-gCf1S0vcQAijprg0IaEQKBmZ7aaXGhu002Hqtr2gTnb0u7JIHqoZ247h6JIoOvv5twA1nj7Z6zjThEFHY7sfzs/s1600-h/imagine.jpg" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img alt="" border="0" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5290924313749053234" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeVsMEY6Ua_U6AqV712ccpQVAbpKhhXU7EmIfleZT6ai1ReAfQVB1N-gCf1S0vcQAijprg0IaEQKBmZ7aaXGhu002Hqtr2gTnb0u7JIHqoZ247h6JIoOvv5twA1nj7Z6zjThEFHY7sfzs/s400/imagine.jpg" style="cursor: pointer; float: right; height: 395px; margin: 0pt 0pt 10px 10px; width: 400px;" /></a><br />
From 1975 to 1979, John Lennon produced no music of any real quality, preferring to stay at home with his young son Sean, whom Yoko had borne. If he had known what was to follow it is highly likely that he would have stuck with that peaceful lifestyle.<br />
Unable to repress the musical genius inside himself, he wrote the excellent album ‘Double Fantasy’. On December 8, 1980, he was accosted by a young man outside his apartment in New York and asked to sign a copy of the album. When John returned to the apartment later that day, that young man, called Mark Chapman, shot and killed him.<br />
Chapman received a life sentence for his madness, but the rest of the world lost a unique musical genius. Lets all be glad at least, that John gave us a taste of his magic.<br />
<br />
<span style="color: rgb(153,51,153)font-family:verdana; font-weight: bold;">"Imagine"</span> ,which is one of his best-known songs, first appeared on his 1971 album, <span style="font-weight: bold;">Imagine</span>.<br />
<br />
Lennon commented that the song was<span style="color: rgb(153 , 51 , 153);"> </span><span style="color: rgb(153 , 51 , 153); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">"an anti-religious, anti-nationalistic, anti-conventional, anti-capitalistic song, but because it's sugar-coated, it's accepted."</span><br />
<br />
Yoko Ono commented <span style="color: rgb(153 , 51 , 153); font-style: italic; font-weight: bold;">"It's not like he thought, 'Oh, this can be an anthem,'"Imagine" was "just what John believed -- that we are all one country, one world, one people. He wanted to get that idea out."</span><br />
<br />
Since its release,<span style="font-family: "verdana";"> </span><span style="color: rgb(153 , 51 , 153); font-family: "verdana";"><span style="font-weight: bold;">"Imagine"</span></span> has appeared on many lists of favourite songs and influential songs; e.g. it is listed as the 3rd greatest song on Rolling Stone's 500 Greatest Songs of All Time.<br />

He's the best, so ... pay attention, specially you, guys. You could lean one or two things from him. He can show you how to be classy, attractive and cool, real cool.<br />
And you shouldn't miss that nice British accent of his. I love it!<br />
<br />
<span style="color: rgb(255 , 102 , 0); font-weight: bold;">Watch this video and see how James Bond introduces himself. </span><br />
<br />
<span style="font-weight: bold;">'What's his name? Who is he?'<br />'His name's Bond, James Bond.'</span> ( Who else could he be? )<br />
<br />
By the way ... do you like James Bond films? Who's the best James Bond ever? Do you prefer Sean Conery or Pierce Brosnan , or any of the others?<br />
Why don't you send me a comment with your answers to these questions? I'd like to know your opinions.<br />
