John Lennon: Love (Please Watch!)
I saw this on VH1 Classic this morning, and I just had to share (I put it here in GD so that more people would see it!):

I had no words to describe my feelings for this. John & Yoko were so perfect together, and he's been gone for almost three whole decades. That's not right. :(

1. Especially now, it's critical to remember what really matters.
Thanks for the beautiful reminder.

3. Working Class Hero
http://video.google.com/videoplay?docid=-4830188766228476746&q=lennon+working+class+hero&total=512&start=0&num=10&so=0&type=search&plindex=2

As soon as your born they make you feel small,
By giving you no time instead of it all,
Till the pain is so big you feel nothing at all,
A working class hero is something to be.

They hurt you at home and they hit you at school,
They hate you if you're clever and they despise a fool,
Till you're so fucking crazy you can't follow their rules,
A working class hero is something to be.

When they've tortured and scared you for twenty odd years,
Then they expect you to pick a career,
When you can't really function you're so full of fear,
A working class hero is something to be.

Keep you doped with religion and sex and TV,
And you think you're so clever and classless and free,
But you're still fucking peasants as far as I can see,
A working class hero is something to be.

There's room at the top they are telling you still,
But first you must learn how to smile as you kill,
If you want to be like the folks on the hill,
A working class hero is something to be.
If you want to be a hero well just follow me.
