Rolling Stone just posted on FB that it's been 22 years since the shooting.

The pubes are the three bones that fuse together to form each of the hipbones... I was talking about squeezing your hips honey in a hug... I think John Lennon would like such an expression of affection and love... and yes, the interview you posted is beautiful...

I also posted something beautiful, the last interview with John.

Yeah. I tried to leave something beautiful here...that would make people feel good......not bad or grossed out.
 
Hopefully it won't get buried too deep, or hopefully people will scroll down.

I'mma try not to ruminate on that one too much.

She was just adding to it all, honey...  Alexandra made a very nice post...  just listen to the video she posted...

the song makes me yearn to squeeze your pubes, honey...

Your posting was more important than ours, that you had to cut it and paste it above ours?

On the 31st anniversary of his passing....I would like to remember one of my all-time favorite ballads that he wrote...so heart-achingly beautiful. Everyone should get to experience this kind of love at least once in their lives.
 
 
Oh My Love

Oh my love for the first time in my life
My eyes are wide open
Oh my love for the first time in my life
My eyes can see I see the wind
Oh, I see the trees
Everything is clear in my heart
I see the clouds
Oh, I see the sky
Everything is clear in our world Oh my love for the first time in my life
My mind is wide open
Oh my lover for the first time in my life
My mind can feel I feel the sorrow
Oh, I feel dreams
Everything is clear in my heart
I feel life
Oh, I feel love
Everything is clear in our world

It was the end of an era, for sure...  I used to insist to people that the Beatles would get back together one day—  I called it inevitable...  but then John Lennon was murdered, and everything changed...

John Lennon's music will be with us forever...

John's death marks the end of our ability to have a better world, for me.

Yes, honey, I know what you mean...  this is poignant and intense in retrospect...  I can't believe it has been so long...  time flies when we're having fun... sigh...

 

That song always brings tears to my eyes, A.

I was just reading this:

John Lennon's Last Interview

shameless bump

A frequently quoted line by me. In his case, you can substitute the word "death" for "life."

I cry every time I hear this song.

What a load of cobblers - he may have been a total hypocrite when it comes to money (lets face it, who isn't), but his politics was somewhat to the left even by European standards, and would not have even appeared on the political radar in the US!

John Lennon: NOT a Closet Republican

First of all, who is Fred Seaman? He'd been a personal assistant to John and Yoko at the Dakota in the late seventies, but he's also a convicted criminal. He was found guilty of stealing John Lennon's personal belongings, including his diaries, after Lennon had been killed. He was sentenced to five years probation.

Oh well, that's what happens when you have money.
