A great example of musical synergy, the cult of celebrity, and the unilateral belief in non-violence.

If he were alive today I would be hard pressed to be able to procure a spare rodent posterior to present to him. I'd be even less concerned with his opinion on anything as well. I don't miss him a bit.
 :huh

got butthurt over his pro-peace stance?

What would he say about the world we live in today?

What would anybody who has been dead for three decades have to say? John Lennon's opinion is no more valuable than any other person's.

True enough but I don't care about Lennon's either.  :D

Pro-peace is fine when you're a zillionaire living in an exclusive area in New York...not so much when you live in any number of European towns and cities which are slowly moving to Sharia law. I worshiped him when I was a kid (I was 20 when he died) As I grew older, I realized it's easy to to have his view of the world and pontificate on the wrongs of our society, when all you've got to do all day is press a button and have people bring you food and whiskey. It's also easy to dump your wife and kid (Julian spent ZERO time with him in his formative years) and hang out with some weird Japanese chick if you're a famous zillionaire (the woman MUST have some talents which don't show up on wikipedia) I still think much of George Harrison, very little of John

The better question is who would care what this acid tripper drug addict would have say...?

John Lennon's opinion falls in the same ballpark as John Stewart's opinion or commentary today...

COMPLETELY IRRELEVANT...

The verbal utterances of Lennon have ZERO bearing on human history...

Can someone explain to me to why the dribble that might have leaked out of Lennon's mouth has any importance whatsoever?

I didn't think so...

Hey Jude...

How profound...

Bob Wooler would disagree.

Cept that the lyrics for "Hey Jude" were written by McCartney.

Oh and about the same number who would care as what you would have to say.

Actually probably more....
