Headline Tag: Music Videos Rating: Amazing Hits: 182 Comments: 1 John Lennon: (Just Like) Starting Over John Lennon: (Just Like) Starting Over The original music video from his Double Fantasy album. It was released as a single on October 9, 1980, Lennon's 40th birthday, and reached number one in both the USA and UK two weeks after he was killed. It is his biggest solo American hit, staying at #1 for five weeks. (When Lennon died the single was at #3 in the USA and the following week reached the summit.) In the UK it had peaked at #8 in the charts and had fallen out of the Top 20 before Lennon's death propelled it to #1, making an impressive #21-#1 move. Indeed, in that week, there were 3 Lennon songs in the UK top 5, a feat never achieved before or since. This was the first single released from Double Fantasy, and the first new recording Lennon had released since 1975. It was chosen by Lennon not because it was the best track on the album, but because it was the most appropriate following his five year absence from the recording industry. He referred to it during production as the "Elvis / Orbison" track, as he "tongue in cheek" impersonated their vocal styles. The uplifting bell at the intro of the song serves as the antidote to the morose bell sound which opens Lennon's first solo album, Lennon seeing it as him having come full circle.

In January 1975, it was released as the second single from that album backed by another album track, "What You Got". It continues Lennon's fascination with the number nine (he was born on October 9).

Headline Tag: Politics Rating: Amazing Hits: 228 Comments: 0 The Life and Times of John Sinclair The Life and Times of John Sinclair John Sinclair first emerged out of his small-town Michigan background to forge a legendary course through the 1960s as a cultural activist, manager of the MC5, and Chairman of the White Panther Party. An early victim of the War on Drugs who faced 20 years to life in prison for giving two joints to an undercover policewoman, Sinclair served 29 months of a 9-1/2-to-10-year sentence before his legal victory on appeal changed the law for good. The long campaign waged by Sinclair culminated in a massive John Sinclair Freedom Rally headlined by John Lennon & Yoko Ono, Stevie Wonder, Bob Seger, Phil Ochs, Allen Ginsberg and Bobby Seale that resulted in Sinclair's release from prison on December 13, 1971, just three days after the event.

Headline Tag: Music Rating: Amazing Hits: 1564 Comments: 0 John Lennon: Imagine John Lennon: Imagine John, Yoko and their message to their fellow man. "Imagine" is a utopian-themed song performed by John Lennon, which appears on his 1971 album, Imagine. Although originally credited solely to Lennon, in recent years Yoko Ono's contribution to the song has become more widely acknowledged. "Imagine" is widely considered as one of the greatest songs of all time. In 2004, Rolling Stone magazine voted "Imagine" the third greatest song of all time. Former U.S. president Jimmy Carter said, "In many countries around the world — my wife and I have visited about 125 countries — you hear John Lennon's song 'Imagine' used almost equally with national anthems." In the book Lennon in America, written by Geoffrey Giuliano, Lennon commented that the song was "an anti-religious, anti-nationalistic, anti-conventional, anti-capitalistic song, but because it's sugar-coated, it's accepted."
