What makes me so sad about John's death is that he seemed to rediscover both his muse and his sense of humor after having pretty must lost them for a decade. This sounds distinctly "Beatles-ish" in a way so little of his solo work did.
It's a good point definetly to some extent cause he said even when Beatles came together at end it wasn't Makin magic so he considered it phony .Like trying to make chicken salad outta chicken shit! Samson got a haircut that's way I see it😁😁
Actually there is a rare video of "I'm Losing You" that John is performing in "Record Plant" that Yoko won't let it be released, I have the bootleg of it.
I've always loved this song. I love seeing him sing it, and all of his usual gibber jabber between takes is such quintessential Lennon humor! Heartwarming to see! ❤️
LOVE that particularly hirsute look John was sporting in the early part of 1980; that, and the rock-and-roll haircut he got the morning of December 8, 1980…
Paul is gone too, there is a chance he died but he might have just quit as well, either way he's been gone/out of sight since September 11th 1966, and the guy we're seeing now is an imposter/the replacement William Campbell a.k.a. Billy Shears. Huge deception.
This video is truly a treasure. Thank you @Johnny Starr. One more thing - If Lennon had changed the title to something like " Oh Jo Jo" (instead of "Oh Yoko") it probably would have been chosen as the the single from Double Fantasy. Highly commercial tune!
That's normal though Hendrix was exactly the same, Eddie Vedder can't go on stage without 2 bottles of wine inside him. Many talented artists are very insecure hence why so many drown there sorrows or hide behind substances. Shame but there just people like me and you just exceptionally talented ones.
Yeah cracking tune this.... an a cool lil vid of him... hes 1 of the greatest, even though hes prob hate me saying that.. just glad i got 2 c this great man an his music , vision, wit, an love.... rip john lennon.. ✌
He & Cynthia were so young when they married, most ppl would have been divorced in the same situation. Maybe he handled it badly, something he admitted to later in life. He really loved Yoko, how can anyone hold that against them. I think most ppl would have wanted to experience that kind of love in their lives. But really how could ppl
I can't tell with certainty that this video is authentic. It certainly sounds like Lennon. But I have heard Lenon impersonations that were just about this close to Lennon. The quality of the video is poor. I'm not making an accusation against the person posting it. I'm just saying I don't know, and I can't tell from the video alone.
I bought a VHS copy of this back in the 90's....this looks and sounds identical to that VHS version. That would suggest this is authentic, as far as its John enjoying himself on a long-ago April morning.
It's legit. Footage included in the 'I'm Stepping Out' clip that Yoko released c1984. This version far superior to that on Double Fantasy which I never cared for. Often the way with John's demos.
Read "the last days of john lennon" by fred seaman. He mentions it to fred when they are driving, the song comes on the radio and sings to it and says he cant get it away from his mind, its so catchy
What did Yoko say when receiving this video? "Oh look, John wrote and played me a song, then recorded it on video and sent it to me.... how long should I wait to auction it off or sell it? I know, Ill auction everything Julian would want first and THEN sell this off, cause the value will be MUCH higher then!!"
@@kalani1987 I don't know. This stuff was all pre-Double Fantasy (Free as a Bird, Real Love, Now & Then). Which suggests that the cassette (with the handwriting on it) was equally old. I suspect that John toyed with the idea of enlisting Paul in the late 70s, when he was at low ebb creatively, but it didn't happen. Maybe Yoko quashed it. He found his feet later and didn't 'need' Paul at that point.
You look at this - and wonder. He would have embraced the digital age. God love and keep you John.
He would've definitely been a vlogger.
He's quite active on the digital front. Check Our many platforms! ❤🎶🎵✌✌🙏❤🎸
He said he wanted to release music like a daily paper just like blogging
The world is a sadder place without John.
He's RIGHT HERE.
@@lenalennon8746 That's a good point.
The thing is he was making the World a Happier Peace loving place with the Beatles than as a Humourless protesting solo artist ,with sombre music , then he finally came back with happier music, , and with the humour , it was too late ,
One man can’t change this war involved world , but the Beatles were changing minds , until the Suit money men got involved
He tolerated Yokos .screeching , it was a sort of Vs up , for people not liking her , he became anti fans , who adored him
Same as George , they just didn’t see , Beatles together were better for public change , solo music suffered , because they couldn’t mirror it , no other Beatle to say , that’s not good , you need to better it here and there , all the solo albums would of been better with the Beatles , without the Spectors and couldn’t care less session men

There's a hole where he's supposed to be.

Still IS

He is a genius. He is one of one. He is with me for a lifetime.
He must have been a pretty hilarious guy to hang around with on occasion.
O, you've NO IDEA
Unless he wasn't drunk, yeah
The one and only Mr John Lennon.
A UA-cam video from 1980. Bless you John.
This is miles better than the studio version.
Simply amazing
Go find McCartney's studio version of Dance Tonight. It sounds very similar in feel to John's demo of Dear Yoko!
Lennon in 2005, filming with his webcam posting it on youtube
If only
Still miss him after so many years 😢
Like we miss the real Paul. Not many/no one has seen him since 1966.
@Lamisery
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
Sad sac.
@@scottandrewbrass You got it wrong. You are sad.
what a fantastic strummer john was. RIP
Yes. I was happy to see Paul point it out in his fairly recent Rick Rubin interview, how John really ripped it on All My Loving.
Yes,and the rest👍
So damn beautiful!!
We love you John!
I think this is the only film footage of Lennon singing a song from Double Fantasy.

Fabulous song, love it.
a sound i hope to hear up in heaven.
You can hear him now just check our many platforms
And just 8 months later, he no longer was. Oh oh John, never ever gonna let you go!
Skvělá písnička, úžasný John ❤✌️😀
Por siempre querido John... pasarán muchas generaciones y tú legado permanecerá fresco....
miss you,Johnny!
so funny that he hated his voice on tape but the world loved it !

Sounds like Paul McCartneys "Dance tonight"
It's pretty obvious he had a lot more music in him as did Mozart,both taken far too young

He scrubbed up well for double fantasy; almost Beatle-like pre 67.Wonder if Paul's cameo on Coming Up inspired the look?

Will have to order this book 😮
Everybody's gonna dance tonight...
He loved her very much. It was a one-sided relationship.
😭
When I'm dead and gone riff
Agree with comment below that it sounds like Macca copied it
Yep, this is the guy who left his son to fend for himself for dear Yoko that you are praising!
Zzzzzzz!
He never left him. They kept in touch for the rest of John's life.
Nessa data e ele de barba? Esse não é o Lennon...
That guitars in a tuning
Bad lighting makes the face looks distorted and he had so much more facial hair. . If not for the vocals I’d say it wasn’t John.
Regardless it's a good presentation. John's beard had a different configuration. It filled the lower lip.
The invention of tiktok
what are you talking about 😭😭😭 y’all be saying anything
not buying the video
It's not for sale.

"Oh look, John wrote and played me a song, then recorded it on video and sent it to me.... how long should I wait to auction it off or sell it? I know, Ill auction everything Julian would want first and THEN sell this off, cause the value will be MUCH higher then!!"
Thank you so much for remembering Julian in all this. I do, too♥️
🙄😪
Oh oh Yoko you ended up with all John's money 💰, oh oh Yoko your Witchcraft is all you got now
This is probably the weakest song he ever wrote.
this is not John never ever it's a fake
I think it's him !😃
Of course it's fucking John.
😂😂😂😂😂
Como o John Lennon estava feio...
Hola observatorio, No era tan feo, me parece camaleónico,Aquí parece TERRORISTA......... Saludos
Recorded the very day Paul released COMING UP, the song that whetted John's appetite to get back to work?!? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coming_Up_(song)
It seems a forgone conclusion that John and Paul would've collaborated again if not for December 8th
