A Much-Missed Voice of Reason

A short post today, because everything I could say about this man is not nearly enough. We miss you, John.

John Lennon

  • Yeah.

    I was wrapping Christmas presents when I heard the news. I thought the radio DJ was making a very, very bad joke. Now I wish he were only making a very, very bad joke.

  • I used to like Paul when I was little…thought he was cute and all that… But as I got older, from about 18 on, it was John who moved me, music-wise and philosophy-wise.

    Se7en~I wish he could. We could really use him now.

    Jenny~John was just the deeper of the two. There’s a reason my favorite Beatles are George and John – both of them wrote songs with actual *meaning* to them. Unlike others I could mention.

    Seamus~Indeed.

    Aimee~I think that’s what everybody thought. The same as when Freddie Mercury died. If only…
