Julian is the only child of a celebrity that most fans seemed to accept as a musician in their own right. He looked and sounded similar to his dad. There were also some good songs on Valotte. Even so, he was smart enough to realize he should pursue a different career ultimately. There’s no competing with a celebrity parent, especially a Beatle. Julian is now a successful photographer and occasionally records music. I really respect the guy
I'm glad you mentioned that I couldn't tell in this particular song when he let go how much he truly sounded like John WOW! He sounded like a freaking Beatle!!! 😳
I was asking the same question about Keith. It has to be, I recognise His ring. He was wearing that same ring when I saw The Stones 9 years later performing in South Africa
Amen, no Yoko. Great comment 👍. Love this video. It made me happy that Julian Lennon was happy. It was nice seeing him smile after all he has been through.
@@briangriffin5701 yes that was Keith Richards. There is a story about him and Chuck Berry look up Keith Richard inducted Chuck Berry into the rock ‘n’ roll Hall of Fame.

I don't get people saying he sounds like John, he doesn't, he doesn't sound bad but he sounds different then John. He's himself, unique in his own way.
That was no accident when chuck said John Julian Lennon, he thought for a split second he was singing with the Beatle himself, Julian looks and sounds exactly like his pa

I'm so happy to see this. Magical. Like seeing John and I'm sure Chuck was so relieved not having yoko wailling at the back like when he sang with John.
John realised towards the end of his life he had been a terrible father to Julian and was really trying to bond with his son. He began phoning him more often (he actually played the whole Double Fantasy album to Julian down the phone before it was released and wanted Julian's opinion and thoughts on it), for his 17th birthday he wanted to give the gift of a painting of the two of them. Near his death he told Julian to look out for a white feather whenever he would pass away and Julian would know his dad is fine and he's looking out for him. Julian was presented with a white feather by a tribe and he believes it really was a sign from his father like John said all those years ago, so Julian created a charity and called it the white feather foundation. Also, John was writing diaries in the mid 70s onwards and he told his personal assistant Fred Seaman in Bermuda 1980 that if anything was to happen to himself in the near future then he'd want Julian to have his diaries as he felt they could help Julian get to know his father better and John felt Julian deserved to know more about him. When John did die, Fred tried taking the diaries back to England to give them to Julian as John wanted but Yoko got him arrested for stealing property and Yoko got them back. Julian has never seen those diaries, even though it was what John wanted. A quote from John in 1980 is: "I hadn't seen my first son grow up and now here's a 17 year old man on thd phone talking about motorbikes. I was not there for his childhood at all. I was on tour, I don't know how the game works, but there's a price to pay for innattention to childen. And if I don't give him attention from zero to five, then i'm damn well gonna have to give it to him from sixteen to twenty, because it's owed. It's like the law of the universe." Also, Julian said in 1988 in an interview for a documentary called Imagine about John he said "There was no wall facing us anymore, but it had been knocked down and we could actually (pretends to be on the phone) 'hi dad I'd like to come and see you is that okay?' 'Yeah'. It's hard to explain emotions in dealing with that situation especially when we were getting so close."

She wouldn't let Julian talk on the phone to his dad and when John died she sold off Julian's postcards from his dad and other memorabilia that Julian had to buy back with the money he inherited from his dad.

It`s a great great shame nobody "looked" after Julian Lennon in this period! Julian was a great talent. Hey. When a "dude"/legend like Chuck Berry recognised Julians talent, there must been something to it. Julian really was great a talent. With better friends etc he would have made it!!
It is so cool, that a man who Invented Rock-N-Roll, could be so generous, to so many young performers. Chuck Berry is not only the King of Rock-N-Roll, but one more great Human Being. It's hard to comprehend that he is almost 90 years old! Long live Chuck Berry and long live Rock-N-Roll!
david burns well technically Ike Turner wrote the first Rock and Roll song, "Rocket 88". But Chuck Berry was definitely one of the forefathers and mastered the art.
Chuck Berry, along with Little Richard are indeed the architects of Rock n Roll!!! I'm taking a risk by saying this,but Elvis is not the king of anything!!! I mean, how arrogant is it that a white guy is declared the "King" of black music???!! No disrespect to Elvis,though. He didn't declare himself the king! White racists dreamed that up!!! We are the experts in Afro American music!!!! No one else!!! Let's stop this shit!!! Chuck Berry,and Little Richard are the KING and Queen of Rock n Roll!!! Let's not allow the world to forget this!!!! Respect, the truth!!! Thanks! Birdlegg,the Hardest Working Man in the Blues! Austin,Texas, USA!
Rock and Roll was a combination of R and B with Country music elements. Elvis started Rockabilly by mixing the two ..Chuck Berry was influenced by white music especially country and so was Fats Domino who was into Country and Western ...you can hear it in their music...so your statement about who the architects is to one sided ..without Elvis rock and roll would not have had the mainstream impact that it did.
It’s been over 30 years since I heard this performance. Now as then I am struck by the intensity of Julian’s vocals & the affection between Julian & Chuck Berry.
You missed the point. With 'Chuck Berry said in his song: "You never can tell"' I meant you never can tell who your real father is. Ask Ronan Farrow (Mia Farrow's and Woody Allen's son who is a Frank Sinatra lookalike!)
Julian Lennon and Dhani Harrison both look and sound like their father... Edit (Again): Wow now we're in the thousands of likes. Many more thank you's!
This was excellent. Chuck Berry and Julian Lennon together performing one of the great rock and roll songs. Chuck was definitely the leader of rock and roll and was the pathfinder for everyone who came after.
1iconic legend playing on stage with an iconic legend's son. They are sounding damn good..Chuck you and Julian are simply having fun and enjoying what you do. Ty,for the priceless experience.
This made me feel so good! the accolades that Chuck showed Julian.Julian was definitely positive and happy in response. It was almost fatherly. Loved it.
omG.... he's got a bit of that Lennon scream 😨 i started tearing up at first... my sons also lost their Dad at a young age, the pain is horrendous... im so glad Mr. Berry did this with julian, its fantastic
Mackie Daz hello,,, Greg was killed in a vehicle crash, he had been drinking a bit, was Driving over the speed limit on a two -lane road, doing 70 mph in a 55 zone.. Rear-ended a 24 ft. boat-trailer,,, the boat became airborne and he was crushed in the metal wreckage 😢 Two of the most agonizing phone calls ever,,,
Mark Chapman was a low IQ prick who was chosen for MK Ultra mind-programming to perform a duty for the States. John had recently defeated repeated attempts by the US to prevent him living there or obtaining a Green Card. John's people won and you must know that the good ole U S A can't be seen to lose........fuck them
I love how humble John is to his own personal musical heroes. A lot of famous people can become arrogant and simply consider themselves better than those who influenced them, but every single Beatle were fans of somebody and when they got to meet them in the flesh they fanboyed just as we would fanboy if we had the chance to meet the beatles. Best part is, they always sent their idols praise in the public eye and to me, that's great.
Chuck Berry was the "Mark Twain of Rock 'n' Roll". Julian's daddy would've been so proud to see this great performance. He's not resting on John's accomplishments. Julian is really singing with heart & soul!
Anyone else find it hilarious how Julian's voice meshes so so much better with Chuck's than John's ever did (at least in the performance we saw between the two)?
" Tell Papa i say hello " at the end is very sweet. Chuck Berry, Keith Richards & Julian Lennon. Good stuff. Chuck is the master of course.... Long live rock n roll.......
Julian Lennon is a remarkably talented in his own right. He may be John Lennon's son but does not live in his father's shadow. I was delighted to see him perform with the legendary Chuck Berry and singing Johnny B Goode. That performance gave me goosebumps and made me happy. You go Julian 💞💞💞💞. Bravo buddy.....
I think that Chuck Berry said John at the end because Chuck really like John and missed seeing him and when he son his son Julian he reminded Chuck of John. Great video :)
Gina Miller yea i thought he called him John by mistake but now I've watched it a few times I'm pretty sure he called him John as a kind of compliment to Julian.
An astounding performance by Julian Lennon- sounds just his dad but better! The resemblance is uncanny. And what Chuck says at the end of this remarkable performance is loving and heartbreaking.
OMG!!! Julian?! Well, how the heck are you? Loved your cameo as the bartender in Leaving Las Vegas! When I first saw you in the 80's, I was speechless- no need to explain why. Much love always, Kristi
+donna stitz Agreed! So sad Julian was badly supported after this. In the midd 80`s. Listening to the words of the legend Mr Chuck Berry!! My(your) God!! So sad Julian was "outed" He was the greatest talent of the Beatles children. Rest is history

Hello 👋 Monica. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Chuck Barry is so authentic in welcoming Julian it had to be great for both of them … considering the history of Julian’s father and Chuck Berry singing together Chuck Berry was a real treasure …
im 42 so I bought the first 2 JL albums pretty young... but as a person from an artistic dynasty myself watching this so many years on...the pressure the poor guy had on him...it took balls just to get into the industry let alone have a father like he did... hes still around...im a bass player of 30 years and id love to play bass for JL, I wouldn't even mention the Beatles or his dad....
That was so touching to hear the legendary Chuck Berry pay tribute to another fellow legend and to see the love and giving way he treated Julian! Those were the legends! Today--let's kill the other guy and the masses are enthralled by those behaviors! Blows one's mind!
I almost cried at the end when Chuck said to Julian "I'm proud and I'll tell him when I see him." Talking about when he sees John in heaven.
goddamn ninjas cutting onions around here
I don't think he said that. He said "tell mama hello" then Julian said "I will" then Chuck said "I'll tell you..(not sure what he says afterwards).."

His new album is quite good.
I've always respected Julian. He stood on his own feet right from the beginning. His version of "Stand By Me" is far better than John's.
'Help Yourself' album is also good. He's a class act, with real talent. Unlike Sean, who tries so hard to be his Dad, and fails big time.
@@jonelson1983 I think you're wrong about Sean. He has made some really interesting music and is also talented.

he really does
Looked, lol somehow I don't imagine he looks much like this 35 years later

It`s a great great shame nobody "looked" after Julian Lennon in this period! Julian was a great talent. Hey. When a "dude"/legend like Chuck Berry recognised Julians talent, there must been something to it.
Julian really was great a talent. With better friends etc he would have made it!!
Check out julianlennon.com to checkout what Julian is up to Now.
Don't worry, he made it
he did make it
This was so beautiful. Chuck really cared about this young man. RIP Mr. Berry.
THE GOD FATHER OF ROCK & ROLL
CHUCK BERRY
The affection & chemistry here is amazing. What a big heart Chuck Berry had.
to think this kid literally has one of the best songs of all time written for him
its hey jude btw
Mario Mestre No that was for sean.
johns fantastical music and remixes no Paul has even said before that it was for Julian
Payton Putteet he’s talking about Beautiful Boy
Moon Dreams oh my bad
Lucy too
It is so cool, that a man who Invented Rock-N-Roll, could be so generous, to so many young performers. Chuck Berry is not only the King of Rock-N-Roll, but one more great Human Being. It's hard to comprehend that he is almost 90 years old! Long live Chuck Berry and long live Rock-N-Roll!
david burns well technically Ike Turner wrote the first Rock and Roll song, "Rocket 88". But Chuck Berry was definitely one of the forefathers and mastered the art.
But he liked to watch women maka toilet.
dead now
I love how happy Chuck seems! He's in awe of everyone on stage as well as being as one of the best there
Chuck Berry, along with Little Richard are indeed the architects of Rock n Roll!!! I'm taking a risk by saying this,but Elvis is not the king of anything!!! I mean, how arrogant is it that a white guy is declared the "King" of black music???!! No disrespect to Elvis,though. He didn't declare himself the king! White racists dreamed that up!!! We are the experts in Afro American music!!!! No one else!!! Let's stop this shit!!! Chuck Berry,and Little Richard are the KING and Queen of Rock n Roll!!! Let's not allow the world to forget this!!!! Respect, the truth!!! Thanks! Birdlegg,the Hardest Working Man in the Blues! Austin,Texas, USA!
Gene Pittman I agree completely! But I may be a bit biased since I wasn't alive to see Elvis' rise.
Rock and Roll was a combination of R and B with Country music elements. Elvis started Rockabilly by mixing the two ..Chuck Berry was influenced by white music especially country and so was Fats Domino who was into Country and Western ...you can hear it in their music...so your statement about who the architects is to one sided ..without Elvis rock and roll would not have had the mainstream impact that it did.
Atomicflash500 then The Beatles come around
Well at least you're not bitter.
It’s been over 30 years since I heard this performance. Now as then I am struck by the intensity of Julian’s vocals & the affection between Julian & Chuck Berry.
John would be proud of Julian. 😭
You could also see the love Chuck felt with Julian being there
Sweet Writer39 lots to be proud of.
If John gave two fucks about julian he wouldn'tve left him
@@alencia7203 one reply in a comment thread explains how the bond was fixed
Yeah he would be so proud of the son he abused and abandoned
Chick was transported back in time - he called Julian John. You can see in Julian's face he felt emotional right then.
He really looks like his dad!
Robert King He sounds even more like his dad!
Sounds like him too!
Like Chuck Berry said in his song: "You never can tell". Ask Ronan Farrow!
I've never seen Chuck Berry's dad, but I'll take your word for it!
You missed the point. With 'Chuck Berry said in his song: "You never can tell"' I meant you never can tell who your real father is. Ask Ronan Farrow (Mia Farrow's and Woody Allen's son who is a Frank Sinatra lookalike!)
Julian sure does look and sound like his dad here. This was an awesome show.
Julian Lennon and Dhani Harrison both look and sound like their father...
Edit (Again): Wow now we're in the thousands of likes. Many more thank you's!
And James couldn't be more different than Paul
James actually looks pretty similar to paul imo
They could make the one and only ultimate Beatles coverband
@@Ryan23H James looks like a mixture of his mom and dad,unfortunately not the best physical characteristics of either.Not his fault,though.
Julian looks like John because Cynthia kind of looked like John,too(especially in earlier pictures).
Wow, the cinematography is absolutely amazing, from time to time it looks like this is straight out of a feature film.
Yes, it was straight out of a feature film called "Hail! Hail! Rock 'n' Roll"!
They shot things on film back then
Damn! Julian Lennon, Chuck Berry and Keith Richards together playing and singing an hymn of rock & roll, they're awesome! 🤘
This was excellent. Chuck Berry and Julian Lennon together performing one of the great rock and roll songs. Chuck was definitely the leader of rock and roll and was the pathfinder for everyone who came after.
He is a literal twin of his father. I really wish the remaining Beatles would get Julian and Dhani to do a tribute show!
jnixa1010 thatd be such a dream! with zak starkey on drums!
Chuck performed with the two greatest Lennons!
WalkingBlueRaven Cook sean lennon is pretty damn good
Hello Walking, how are you doing?
The People who disliked this are not ready for it yet
But their kids are gonna love it
Sadly most of todays kids dont like god musik they only listen to shit like lil waine lil pump and every other idiot who has s lil in his name
Bro, as a 17 year old, I'm LOVIN this!!!
Btw, this is a Back to the Future reference
1iconic legend playing on stage with an iconic legend's son. They are sounding damn good..Chuck you and Julian are simply having fun and enjoying what you do. Ty,for the priceless experience.
This made me feel so good! the accolades that Chuck showed Julian.Julian was definitely positive and happy in response. It was almost fatherly. Loved it.
King Leonard this isn't normal but on meth it is. Cool down and grab a beer...
omG.... he's got a bit of that Lennon scream 😨
i started tearing up at first... my sons also lost their Dad at a young age, the pain is horrendous... im so glad Mr. Berry did this with julian, its fantastic
How did YOUR sons lose their dad if you're still here?
Mackie Daz
hello,,,
Greg was killed in a vehicle crash, he had been drinking a bit, was Driving over the speed limit on a two -lane road, doing 70 mph in a 55 zone.. Rear-ended a 24 ft. boat-trailer,,, the boat became airborne and he was crushed in the metal wreckage 😢
Two of the most agonizing phone calls ever,,,
Mackie Daz Someone has to actually give birth to sons, too, y know?
Mackie Daz Stepfather
ROAD To The Top Oh yeah, my bad
being the son of the greatest musician who ever lived is hard to live up to, but I think he pulls it off.
@Boston Rotten It is!
He isn't David Bowie's son, wdym?
The greatest musician? come on dude the biggest pop star yes, greatest musician not even close.
@@evangelicae_rationis XD No offense to David Bowie but no.
It grieves me so much that his father never showed him any love. But cynthia loved him with all her heart. God bless you julian. Live long brother. ❤❤
"Ain't he like his Pa???"
Edit: Rest In Peace Chuck.
yeah his dad died people say he did from the illuminati
+Christine Alvarez david mark chapman wasnt from the illuminati
Mark Chapman was a low IQ prick who was chosen for MK Ultra mind-programming to perform a duty for the States. John had recently defeated repeated attempts by the US to prevent him living there or obtaining a Green Card. John's people won and you must know that the good ole U S A can't be seen to lose........fuck them
Damn right he is Chuck
+Stewart Nicol as BILLY CONNOLLY Not even worth mentioning his name.
I love how humble John is to his own personal musical heroes. A lot of famous people can become arrogant and simply consider themselves better than those who influenced them, but every single Beatle were fans of somebody and when they got to meet them in the flesh they fanboyed just as we would fanboy if we had the chance to meet the beatles. Best part is, they always sent their idols praise in the public eye and to me, that's great.
It's almost the complete opposite if today's climate
And Keith Richards certainly has too about Chuck Berry.
Chuck Berry was the "Mark Twain of Rock 'n' Roll". Julian's daddy would've been so proud to see this great performance. He's not resting on John's accomplishments. Julian is really singing with heart & soul!
Wrong! Chuck Berry was the king of rock and roll. That Mark Twain thing maybe was Elvis. LOL
Anyone else find it hilarious how Julian's voice meshes so so much better with Chuck's than John's ever did (at least in the performance we saw between the two)?
Yeah Julian and chuck berry sound great together
Probably because unlike the John and Chuck performance they actually rehearsed for this one
Chuck Berry looks godly on stage it's totally incredible
" Tell Papa i say hello " at the end is very sweet. Chuck Berry, Keith Richards & Julian Lennon. Good stuff. Chuck is the master of course.... Long live rock n roll.......
A little awkward, since John was long dead.
You sure he didn’t say,” tell mama hello.” Or, was about to say pa and realized he meant ma 🤔
Thank you Chuck Berry for this beautiful tribute to John Lennon with his son Julian ☺️
Julian Lennon is a remarkably talented in his own right. He may be John Lennon's son but does not live in his father's shadow. I was delighted to see him perform with the legendary Chuck Berry and singing Johnny B Goode. That performance gave me goosebumps and made me happy. You go Julian 💞💞💞💞.
Bravo buddy.....
I think that Chuck Berry said John at the end because Chuck really like John and missed seeing him and when he son his son Julian he reminded Chuck of John. Great video :)
It could go both ways: Julian's full name is John Charles Julian Lennon.
Gina Miller yea i thought he called him John by mistake but now I've watched it a few times I'm pretty sure he called him John as a kind of compliment to Julian.
nah, his name is John Julian Lennon
I think he said it because it's his fucking name.
They also sang "Johhny" a lot which is why I think he slipped up.
i love that the audience is young kids to eldery people
Less boomers would be better
@@Defrap22 less Autotune would be better
@@Defrap22 i mean millenials are The reall problem here..
@@zejdland why
It was epic!
We ll never forget U, Chuck!
Julian is amazing like his father
Ângela Balzan hi
Agustin Gonzalez hi baby!
I love you S2
mas tu ta aqui também...
O negócio eh inter e não grêmio
Ângela Balzan inter e melhor
An astounding performance by Julian Lennon- sounds just his dad but better! The resemblance is uncanny. And what Chuck says at the end of this remarkable performance is loving and heartbreaking.
Hello Kristi,
How're you doing?
Thank you for your love and support and also for being an amazing fan.
It's nice meeting you here 🌹
OMG!!! Julian?! Well, how the heck are you? Loved your cameo as the bartender in Leaving Las Vegas! When I first saw you in the 80's, I was speechless- no need to explain why. Much love always, Kristi
@@kristibaron4039that’s not him.
@@kristibaron4039That's spam, it's obviously NOT Julian.
There is a bunch of love on that stage.
When julian sings " go johnny go go", he sounds like john did in Hamburg!!👍👍💖💕💓😊😁
Oh yes ^^
I love your name and pfp
@@pajamas_the_emo, oi!! When did you take that pic of me in me garden?? ( Can't get no privacy these days!!!!😅😂👍👍👍👍)
@@georgeharrison243 Never you mind, dear! I def didn't break into Crackerbox Palace, I swear!
@@pajamas_the_emo Damn!! Must've left that bloody gate open again!!😅😂👍👍💗💓💖
Julian is sooo amazing ! & KEITH seems to ALWAYS be there when some amazing R&R is happening ;) LOVE THIS!
+donna stitz Agreed! So sad Julian was badly supported after this. In the midd 80`s. Listening to the words of the legend Mr Chuck Berry!! My(your) God!! So sad Julian was "outed" He was the greatest talent of the Beatles children. Rest is history
That was awesome! What a thrill that must’ve been for Julian. He did a great job and even nailed Chuck’s trademark duck walk❤️🙏
Hello 👋 Joan. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
2:17. it was at this moment that he knew. he forgot the lyrics
GREAT performance!!!. Julian did it, EXCELLENT!!!. Julian looks a lot like John, and his voice is similar to his father. I LOVED IT!!!. RIP in Heaven, John Lennon and Chuck Berry. I miss you sooo much, my lovely John!. ❤
Hello 👋 Monica. How are you doing? Hope you are fine. I'm Mark Clifford and am from Denver Colorado, where are you from? You seem like a real country girl
Julian is so cute and can sing right along with Chuck Berry holding his own. He's so amazing and I love him
Chuck Barry is so authentic in welcoming Julian
it had to be great for both of them … considering the history of Julian’s father and Chuck Berry singing together
Chuck Berry was a real treasure …
He has an awesome stage presence.
This is what magic looks like.
GOOSEBUMPS ALL THE TIME-when Julian singing GO JOHNNY B GOOD:))) Sounds like father!
i know, huh?!? 😏
I just saw the video of John singing with Chuck, and yeah. Exactly the same!
I'd even say Julian is better that John. He definitely had more of an electric style.
awesome!!!!!!!!!thank you!!!!
You can say that again…
They have a soulful voice!
This is my favorite song 🎶 so tell me are you a fan of Chuck and Julian?
Hello Theresa,
How're you doing?
Thanks for all your love and support, also for being an amazing fan.
It's nice meeting you here
im 42 so I bought the first 2 JL albums pretty young... but as a person from an artistic dynasty myself watching this so many years on...the pressure the poor guy had on him...it took balls just to get into the industry let alone have a father like he did...
hes still around...im a bass player of 30 years and id love to play bass for JL, I wouldn't even mention the Beatles or his dad....
Chuck berry “Tell Papa hello”
Julian “I will”
Chuck berry “ I’ll tell you what he says..”
then I think he says Ima see him before you
Mario 11 You just made me cry.
😭
What is that mean?
@@papawanker1554 this is 6 years after John’s assassination and chuck is implying that he’s old and will see John in the after life before Julian
This made me cry
OMG Julian Lennon = John Lennon in Quarrymens.
Man, that was one of the best videos I've ever seen. Couldn't stop smiling the whole time!
John said it all. you'll live FOREVER Chuck berry we rockers all admire and look up to you. we all love you
So glad to see Julian happy. Had it tough growing up with an absent father. He has a much bigger heart than his dad. Bravo & Good luck to you!
Hey Jules,
You don’t have to be good.
You’re already the best.
That was so touching to hear the legendary Chuck Berry pay tribute to another fellow legend and to see the love and giving way he treated Julian! Those were the legends! Today--let's kill the other guy and the masses are enthralled by those behaviors! Blows one's mind!
