On October 9th a very special birthday is celebrated. On October 9th 2007 Mr. John Lennon would have been 67 years young. I would like to dedicate this thread to remember one of, if not the most liberal and artistic minds of all time. 27 years after this death, his fascinating life is still being remembered and honored. John Lennon wasn't only an unbelievable musician, he was an amazing person too.I adore and admire John Lennon and would like to welcome anybody else who feels the same way I do to post their feelings, ideas, and even comments about or on John Lennon here as a little birthday present for him if you will. Please nice comments only. Thanks 9 days til his Birthday!
I admire him so much. I have a poster of him in my room with his "Imagine" lyrics on them. He's so awesome. Happy Birthday John!
I have a poster like that too. Its like John's profile and than the lyrics in the bottom right corner. Happy birthday John, we all wish you were still with us.
I love John Lennon so much. The Beatles were my first favourite band, and they were what got me into the 60s and hippie stuff. His post-Beatles work is so amazing, too. I love the song "Give Peace a Chance" - it always cheers me up for some reason. So many of his other songs are wonderful, too. Great lyrics, great tunes, so amazing... It's horrible and tragic that he couldn't have lived longer to spread more peace and love to the world. He was such a wonderful person, and I know he's changed many lives besides mine.
Rest In Peace John We love you, wish you were still with us summereco thanks for starting this thread John truely was amazing, such an inspiration peace love Jane
And I’ve been knocking but no one answers And I’ve been knocking most all the day Oh and I’ve been calling oh hey hey Johnny Can’t you come out to play
John, George, Paul & Ringo changed my life by the music they brought to America in the early 60's. It wasn't considered "pop" then. Totally different than anything we had ever heard at the time. I was so into the music I decided to start playing an instrument myself. Still do, but now play a totally different type of music. I feel they changed my life for the better, and now I also pass it along to kids thru music lessons, free, to any kid that wants to learn how to play a guitar or bass in our area here. Peaceful thoughts to all.... Thanks John, Happy Birthday..... Farmout All we need is LOVE
i have a john lennon poster in my room-he is one of my heroes. happy b-day, john! if he were alive today, he'd smile knowing that we're listning to him even after he's gone. he'll always be here in spirit<3.
John Lennon. Just wow. i love him with all my heart, he's my hero. we learned so much from him. why would they kill a person like that? he meant so much to us. and he still does to me. he imagined it all. he is the reason why i have become this person that i am now, and that i will always be. I love you very much, John. And I always will. May you rest in peace. And a happy birthday. PEACE & LOVE. BECAUSE THAT IS ALL WE NEED ! George Harrison - All Those Years Ago (dedicated to John Lennon) Im shouting all about love While they treated you like a dog When you were the one who had made it So clear All those years ago. Im talking all about how to give They dont act with much honesty But you point the way to the truth when you say All you need is love. Living with good and bad I always look up to you Now were left cold and sad By someone the devils best friend Someone who offended all. Were living in a bad dream Theyve forgotten all about mankind And you were the one they backed up to The wall All those years ago You were the one who imagined it all All those years ago. Deep in the darkest night I send out a prayer to you Now in the world of light Where the spirit free of the lies And all else that we despised. Theyve forgotten all about god Hes the only reason we exist Yet you were the one that they said was So weird All those years ago You said it all though not many had ears All those years ago You had control of our smiles and our tears All those years ago
I wanna thank all of you guys who have posted such wonderful things there. I also very glad so many people here love John as much as I do, and to everyone who has John as their hero--- thats why I created this thread! Once again thank you very much for saying nice things only (not that anyone could say anything bad about John Lennon ) 8 more days until His Birthday

Get ready to celebrate one of the most amazing minds' birthday 7 More Days Until John Lennon's Bithday!!
