"Just another Beatle Fan Channel" you're thinking I s'ppose ?... Well yes. But with a new approach.
Away from the usual clichés on the Beatles everyone goes through all the time everywhere, away from the mandatory topics attached to the Beatles, away from the conventional esthetics most Beatles channels have... I want this channel to have a different look as well as a different outlook and take on the band once called "The Beatles". Looking through a new prism, it will use other means and elements to go through usually overlooked subjects in their history, usually neglected characters or ignored notions in their narrative, it will present unusual views or non politically-correct angles... Well you see the spirit.
Because what tends to be obvious these days when you go through all the Beatles related channels across UA-cam, is the monotonous conception and predictability of most videos really, no offense. The Beatles and especially John Lennon always stood for "non-conventional".

I want this channel to have a different look as well as a different outlook and take on the band once called "The Beatles", the most influential, socially significant, commercially most popular and culturally most worshipped music band in the history of the Western world.

Basically, in most cases you do end up either with some slightly sad, slightly lost, slightly lonely chubby boomer going through their "vinyl collection" like they were talking to themselves out loud really... Or you might come across some trendy 25-year-old New Jersey hipster, often nice but also often corrupted by product endorsements, telling all about various existing Brazilian vinyl pressings of "Abbey Road"...
Not to mention the unavoidable channels of "tribute-bands/ look-alike tribute-bands", complete with wigs and Sgt. Pepper outfits, delivering cringy renditions of "This Boy" on cheap out-of-tune guitars before extatic devotees holding out smartphones, somewhere in a Liverpool "Beatle museum" of some sort or in some "Beatles convention" upstate Arizona, USA...
Call me ugly but, remembering John's clear sarcastic and iconoclast tendencies and views on all myths including the Beatles' myth and his loathing of silly stereotypes, I can't help envisioning what the personal John Lennon's take would have been on Beatles "tribute-bands" had he lived !... But that's another story.
My point being : the Beatles always stood for staying away from conventions, away from any "group mentality" and away from any flock of sheeps.
One must NOT forget that before becoming themselves The Establishment in many ways, The Beatles and especially John Lennon always stood for "Political Incorrectness", always stood for "non-conventional", always spoke for all the underdogs and always proposed new paths to their audience. The Beatles were always in themselves a world apart from all the rest.
Some might say it seems today they have become The Rest.
The Beatles were the very opposite of a corporate company and the very opposite of a "formula-type band". And they spoke a language which was the very opposite of a Corporate Language.
It was a language of truth, and most of all, one of sincerity.
The instinctive language of sincerity. And I believe we must remember this.
... However big Paul and Ringo will always remain in my heart and however vast my gratitude will always be towards their talent and genius, I can't help but feel a bit depressed when I realise that all that's left of my sweet beloved Beatles today is an empty and purely commercial Macca acting like he's on automatic pilot, telling the exact same three Beatle anedotes litterally everywhere he goes, and one freshly died-haired lost Ringo going "peace and love peace and love peace and love" whenever asked about anything, like some ludicrous robot with a bug he can't shake off... I mean, really ?...
I personally think the Beatles deserve better than that... But let's say I'm just a nasty idealist.
Like John was.

I always say I can’t stand Yoko and then I listen to her speaking and Im very taken back because she’s actually a very highly knowledgeable person, she’s just been spattered because of the whole beatle breakup and everything and I actually have to say, I listened to the first part where she’s talking and actually enjwgat she had to say about John and things. I feel really bad for her, losing someone and in those circumstances is a terrible thing. Great in, such a damn shame he was taken from us way to soon and unfair.
The most senseless assassination/
He truly wore his heart on his sleeve, didn’t he?
This Aquarian is still looking for her Libran Man.
My favourite power couple
I just thought that John was hopeless at the point that he had no mum to love him it was a very hard for him to have a good life
He didnt like her...why shake her hand
She just butts in all the time..
Hello is there any way to get a copy of this great interview?
Yes you will need to have to tape it
How do I go about taping it?
Yoko’s family were extremely wealthy.
She sounds sostoned on smack with that little girl voice that smackhead women do
I hate people criticising Lennon's life like he done terrible things when he didn't he was just so open and honest so we know everything about him so that makes him a angel as most people i know have done much worse! He had a divorce,a few fights and worked relentless through his twenties so didn't seehis son enough bit every father back then didn't see there kids and got home at 18.00 had dinner and lied on there back, coz so tired! Lennon did amazing for Julian! What do people want? No Beatles? He had to work!
How about the fact that he didn't leave Julian in his will
horrifiyng knowing as this was taped, his murderer was just outside the Dakota, with the loaded gun in his pocket. He died hours after this interview, and Yoko had his body cremated the following day
So crazy that Lennon was the first person ever to look after a kid! Utterly self-congratulatory waffle about bringing up a toddler - with a nanny. Can't imagine how hurtful this would all be for Julian to listen to, I'd say he could've done with all this attention and care from his father when he was a boy.
I think John liked Sesame street. He probably would’ve been in an episode if he was still around.
Chapman was waiting outside as this was being recorded (don't know if the interview was before or after he signed the album). So tragic, John had no idea
Okay I've said it before and tried to convince people but this proves it, John Lennon was a freaking genius. I've seen some comments on here that were like oh he was probably stoned. no he doesn't sound stoned to me, you know sounds completely lucid, philosophical, straightforward. If he was stoned he would be talking nonsense but he isn't. He makes perfect sense. Complete, clear and right on point. Exposing hypocrisy, and he never loses his train of thought. He is absolutely incredible in here. The only thing that I wish could be changed is that this could just be transferred to one picture of John that maybe switched into other pictures. , I find that it would be better if it was a blank screen. It's not that I don't enjoy seeing the "Let it Be documentary, but the slow motion is driving me crazy. I wish With Every Beat of My Heart that I could have met this man, sat down with him and talked to him, he's like some sort of Guru. And by that I don't mean that he was better than us by any means. However, if you listen to this man talk you're like wow completely Blown Away. Especially when he talks about like the thought process of people, and the vibrations that are all around us, that we all feel if we would just get in touch with who we are. When he even talks about the vibrations of the animals and why he didn't want to eat them. This is New Age consciousness, this is very deep philosophical stuff. Absolutely amazing. I have read in places that the man had an IQ of 165, and I tried to explain that I answer questions on Quora, and people are oh you're full of s*** no he didn't. Oh yea he did. Listen to the man talk, he is so deep, he is so tuned in, he sees things that people don't see. And you can just hear that he is so just bloody intelligent. The only complaint I have, like I said is that the slow motion distracts from listening to John. And I'm telling you I wish that I could have sat at his feet and just taken in every single word he said. We could use a man like that around these parts today. God bless you John and rest in peace. I love him. ❤
..I wanted to add that seeing John in these photos with his son,it is great to see these images of him being happy with his son and Yoko when he was left with his aunt as a child and hardly saw his father.Its told in the film "Nowhere boy".It's nice to know John had a lot of fun,joy and happiness before he was shot.
Your lips are moving but no words are used to understand
Love and peace of mind that you will never understand
John lennon interview was the best
To think that insignificant fool was lurking near the archway, John was already dead
I agree but that was taken off
About what john said about suicide
Yoko laughing in the background speaks volumes
Just remember what john said in revolution,How we would like to change your head shoby doo upp
What a great idea to have to live your own life in the same way that you have no intention to use anybody. john said capitalism don't make sense. That's my bag as aswell
Thank you for your assependace and the service you provided to me it's your own words that I will be able to make a difference in my mind when things get tough and yoko also with lots of love Pete
Man, we were about to get a John Lennon tour in 1981 and eventually would have seen at the very least John & Paul back together making music again at some point- if not all four Beatles. Guy wasn't even thinking what if this was his last day on Earth.
Yoko is very annoying. She is into rituals, she is dark.
Those last few seconds .. so many talented people gone. What a waste
Am I the only one skipping through to hear John Lennon talk and all I’m hearing is Yoko???!!!!
yes, you’re the only one.. 30 minutes in John enters and i’m mostly hearing John talk more
The day after he died, I went to my job, literally physically sick all day I felt like I had lost a dad or a brother
I was hoping he would interview without Yoko. Together they benefit from the myth of their love.
This interview makes me remember my best friend who died a month and a half ago he was only 31 years old I remember we were joking on fb 2 hours before his death after that he died in a car crash and I saw his body in the mortuary so shocking and so sad🥹🥹🥹
Was probably stoned. But so what
Man this woman never finishes a sentence!
ohhh Yoko seems like such a good woman, and she's gotten so much grief. God bless her
what a man
Speaking too much truth there for this system which incidentally is still here and worse than ever
Stop using that AI PHOTO... Lennon couldn't smile in 1980, his nose would have fallen off 😂
damn,he was so skinny in the latter years its scary
Same clueless lefties then as now. Honestly, what t f do 20-year-olds know about anything? So what we have here is a bunch clueless students interviewing a clueless rockstar. 'Cos let's face it, Lennon was a very talented musician and song writer, but far from the sharpest tool in the box when it came to other matters. And Yoko Ono... Give me a f*cking break!
memories of holidays along the beach : I can hear seagulls . Souvenirs de mes dernières vacances à la plage : le cri des mouettes
Why am I listening to Yoko over talking John? Go away, interloper!
Amen. Make me cry😢😢😢😢❤
Laurie Kaye, one of the interviewers, said she feels guilty because they all saw the guy after the interview. Nobody thought he would hurt John.
Is this YOU? If all you are is what you imagine John Lennon was, I pray you are as young as possible. If you are as old as 18 or 20, it may be too late. Alas, it's probably too late for all of us. Failing IS an option.
*??... May we know what you are talking about ??... And whom you're talking to ?...*
I had to start an Stop this John Lennon Oko Real Raw Storyline's. Sean Ono Julian Lennon... A Personal Thanks To Shi Heng Yi..JAPAN. HUEL. IT IS IN OUR HEART
*What the fuck are you TALKING ABOUT ???????... Can you please leave coherent comments that people can actually UNDERSTAND ??????... Or don't leave anything, please. Thank you.*
I had just graduated from college and watched Monday Night Football when Howard announced that he had been shot and was dead. I couldn't believe it. How could this happen when he was just releasing his best work in years. It drove home that life is precious, but life is not your own. You can lose it or have it taken from you in a moment.
This creepy voice of Ono ruins the interview in the first minute. If only this guy stayed in the UK where he belonged.
