It was so great when Double Fantasy came out. We hadn't heard anything from John in such a long time. Such a good, optimistic album. It made the shooting that much harder. Like so many, i remember where I was the day I found out.....
Absolutely. I also remember liking the Yoko songs more than the John songs! To be honest, I found the John songs (and the album cover) super corny when it first came out. Then he gets murdered, like, two weeks later....and every one of those songs got framed in a totally new light, in the worst possible way. It's been over forty years, and I've never gotten over it, I still can't believe it. You write a song like, say, "Julia" and someone STILL murders you. What a world.
Even my mom was crying as she told me. I was a huge fan and played the Beatles music on our family room phonograph growing up. She knew how much I loved John and the rest of the group
Great post. "Woman" is one of my favorite songs of all time and it was our wedding dance song too! I was only 6 y/o when this was released but I have vivid memories of this playing on the radio in early 1981 and the emotions it brought. John is one of the best songwriters and one of my favorite artists.
It’s a beautiful song by a beautiful guy. It makes me cry when I listen to it and especially when I see “to be continued”, knowing that a very short time later he was murdered. Such a loss to Yoko, Julian, Sean and the entire world. RIP John 😇😢
FUN FACT: The video of him and his wife walking together in Central Park was filmed on November 26, 1980. 12 days before his death. The parts with his wife by herself was filmed one month after his death.
I would hardly call it a Fun Fact! Nothing fun about John being murdered days later, and Yoko by herself being filmed as a widow because of a senseless act of violence.
I'm near 70, Lennon (and the Beatles) was a driving force in my life about a love of music and its relationship to life in general... Hard to explain...
Yes I love "Watching the Wheels"...from the same album. "Double Fantasy" is one of his best solo works in my opinion. John had a different outlook on life at that time and he was so motivated to come back and produce impactful music. The world lost a bright beacon of light.
Another fantastic reaction video from you! The Beatles, and most especially John Lennon, have brightened my life so much. This is just one of many incredibly wonderful songs Lennon wrote and performed. It's loving and beautiful and has some background meaning relevant to his life and relationship with Yoko.
This is a sad video put out after his death. Showing John alive and them together. Then Yoko Ono alone after his death...very sad. He loved her so much. Rest Peacefully John🌹
In the third verse John changes the words from “Ooooh oooh… well well.” To “I love you… yeah yeah”. This is an echo of the song “She Loves You”, The Beatles 1963 monster hit that is considered the one that launched Beatlemania.
So heartbreaking to see the scenes of her sitting alone in Central Park - where she would build Strawberry Fields to remember him - in view of their apartment in the Dakota - the place where he was gunned down. Also wish they didn't include the disgusting NY Post morgue photo. But it is a beautiful song by John.
since you like that song, you will like another Lennon song called Jealous Guy, which has some of the same sentiment as Woman and with another great Lennon melody. There is a video of Jealous Guy with a video of John and Yoko mixed with the actual live recording he made of the song for an album. Here is video title: Jealous Guy (ultimate mix, 2020)-John Lennon and the plastic ono band (w the flux fiddlers)
One fact you need to know is that this film clip was made very soon after John was assassinated, which is why there are a number of shots of Yoko by herself.
Classic. It does move someone. Love doesn't have to make sense. Yoko Ono got a lot of grief but he always stood by her. -Your Biggest fFan/Patreon Member/Channel Member
Love is a perfect fit.. it may take some time to find, but you will scence it emotionally feel it. To know when its that perfect fit when you feel it in your heart
When he was killed his album called double fantasy was about to come out and instantly hit the pop charts. I remember that so well christmas came a month later sooo sad! I was only 15
This video was shot in Central Park in NYC he lived right across the park…which he was shot….on December 8, 1980…where were you when he was shot….I was at Bruce Springsteen concert in Hartford Connecticut…and Bruce announce to the crowd that John Lennon was shot…he then sang Lennon song in his memory….
*Well I am 2 months late but* .......... I'm most pleased you chose this one.! Love your new redhead look Killer...! You look healthy & happy and like most, I've watched ALOT of your reactions..! Much love from across the pond beautiful............
Loved it, thank you. "Mother" live at MSG is heartwrenching, especially if you know how he grew up. His father left him as an infant. His mother gave him to her sister, who he grew up thinking was his mother. His mother had serious mental issues and when he finally started getting close to his real mother as a teen.... she gets killed by an off duty police officer driving drunk... WTF
Nice Katie you have watched imagine and woman maybe you can check Mother by John Lennon... John and his Japanese wife Yoko Ono..or try to find his son Julian Lennon's single..
I recommend you check out 'In My Life' & 'Here, There, And Everywhere' by the Beatles if you like love songs. There's no one better at it, or anything else for that matter. 👍
As a redhead myself, I don’t usually fall in love with other redheads…but you might be the exception. You are ADORABLE! And do I hear a Welsh accent as well?
And what song, pray tell, are you referring to? If it's "Woman is the Nigger of the World" and you hold it in derision then you don't understand John Lennon and you don't understand allegory and metaphor.
Top tip: say you are on a date with a young man who loves Pink Floyd (although most men who love Pink Floyd are over 60 and only love Pink Floyd) do not tell him that Sid Barrett must have been a bit of a wally who did way too much acid. That will get you a 3rd class degree in Music Appreciation and reappraised as good for only one thing.
Hey it's me again........dorkus malorkus lol just wanted to remind you I think you got the most beautiful smile I've ever seen I'm really enjoying your content. What's your accent if you DNT mind replying to a comment? It's attractive.
I don't know about in love, but I have been infatuated with a lady a few times before. But they were never attracted to me or interested in me back (or if they were at first, not after 1 date), so I guess that's why I don't get this song.
Hi Gorgeous, love ur reaction as always. Specifically Beatles & Nightwish, as I do love them. Have something very special for u . Think it is the heaviest song by Nightwish, and I do mean HEAVY, nearly Power Metal. It's called Master Passion Greed (Special Video) ua-cam.com/video/Bkib0dIziXk/v-deo.html Song is about Tarjas husband Macello,. Love from Sweden, and b safe xx ps did like ur video from London, hopefully u did enjoy ur trip.

To be fair,the "To be continued" part was obviously added to the video which was made after his death anyway.
He was a terrible father to Julian, and a terrible husband to Cynthia.
At 3:48 he's signing an autograph for his assassin. At 3:56 is a photo of him in the morgue that wat taken by a tabloid photorapher.
FUN FACT: The video of him and his wife walking together in Central Park was filmed on November 26, 1980. 12 days before his death. The parts with his wife by herself was filmed one month after his death.

@@markamos1911 Admittedly an unfortunate choice of words.
That's not really a fun fact, now is it
Replace 'funfact' with trivia.
Well... that's actually a depressing fact.
The greatest songwriter of all!
The most influential musician of all time The greatest rockstar of all time The Greatest songwriter of all time John Lennon is the Goat of 3 category.
one of the greatest love songs ever
I'm near 70, Lennon (and the Beatles) was a driving force in my life about a love of music and its relationship to life in general... Hard to explain...
The day after we lost him, we all got together and listened to his newest record. Such a bittersweet memory.
What a romantic song that would melt any woman's heart. Rest in Peace John you are in Heaven now. God Bless!!
John is only one of the top 5 most recognizable voices of the last 100 years 🤷🏻♂️
A great songwriter n singer n artist
That this was just before his death AND it's so beautiful is what makes it so devastating. I bought this album the day it came out.
Watching the Wheels - Mind Games - Nobody Told Me - Jealous Guy - Instant Karma ... and the list goes on and on
This song, "Love" and "Watching the Wheels" are my three favorite John Lennon solo songs. They're so beautiful
Also, “#9 Dream” 🔥
Yes I love "Watching the Wheels"...from the same album. "Double Fantasy" is one of his best solo works in my opinion. John had a different outlook on life at that time and he was so motivated to come back and produce impactful music. The world lost a bright beacon of light.
im in my 60s and never been in love, but i loved this song from the the day it was released.

あなたはきれいな女性です。
You.are beautiful woman.
OMG I couldn’t LOVE your accent any more than I do!
Which ever guy has your heart must be one amazing guy…
Your voice is beautiful!
I have a strong feeling you would enjoy "Working Class Hero" by John Lennon. Lyrically it's one of his best.
YES! In fact, almost any song from Plastic Ono Band (Isolation, Mother, and God are some almost as good as Working Class, IMO)...
Hey my girl. I'm so glad you checked this song out. I love it so much. Hope to sing it to someone like you one day.
One fact you need to know is that this film clip was made very soon after John was assassinated, which is why there are a number of shots of Yoko by herself.
Classic.
It does move someone.

Yoko Ono got a lot of grief but he always stood by her.

such a beautiful song
So heartbreaking , watching the video , if you dont shed a tear or two , you're just not human!
Love is a perfect fit.. it may take some time to find, but you will scence it emotionally feel it. To know when its that perfect fit when you feel it in your heart
Masterpiece, Lennon forever
Love you John 💕
Woman all he is saying is we are so much greatful for you giving birth to us all x
When he was killed his album called double fantasy was about to come out and instantly hit the pop charts. I remember that so well christmas came a month later sooo sad! I was only 15
It was already out and moving up the charts qhen he was killed. His unfortunate death drew more attention to the album.
This video was shot in Central Park in NYC he lived right across the park…which he was shot….on December 8, 1980…where were you when he was shot….I was at Bruce Springsteen concert in Hartford Connecticut…and Bruce announce to the crowd that John Lennon was shot…he then sang Lennon song in his memory….
This song is for you, Dear Goddess. It's a poem
This song is from his last Album ... plus there was a photot of the man who killed him in the video you just showed. LOVE YOU.
3:55 Yes, that actually really is his death photo from the morgue 😔
That image and the ones of Yoko alone after his death were so out of place in this video.
@@DJ-bj8ku Totally agree. Inappropriate & quite cringe-worthy.
@@stevejoshua9536 I think that is what Yoko was going for. It was her video. John's death was inappropriate & quite cringe-worthy.
Glad you got this one a love song just for you from John Lennon
For the other half of the sky beautiful
You should listen to, tell it to my face, by Tim Weisberg and Dan Fogelberg written by Graham Nash and the Holly’s
I randomly clicked on this video and was not ready for that accent 🤣
from the same album, try "Beautiful Boy" , a song he wrote for his son Sean
Cars are banned in Central Park now, don't forget 'Mind Games" also filmed in Central Park
*Well I am 2 months late but* .......... I'm most pleased you chose this one.! Love your new redhead look Killer...! You look healthy & happy and like most, I've watched ALOT of your reactions..! Much love from across the pond beautiful............
Master poet and singer..nice reaction u!
Mother , GOD
you had your eyes shut when they showed him in the casket
Very nice. And wow what a natural beauty. Definitely got it goin on! Great channel
React to jealous guy by John I think you’d like it alot
Yes and Yoko looks like Del Boy
at 3:47 you can see John Lennons Murder:Mark David Chapman
Jealous guy, you will love it!
Esta mujer está guapísima
Loved it, thank you. "Mother" live at MSG is heartwrenching, especially if you know how he grew up. His father left him as an infant. His mother gave him to her sister, who he grew up thinking was his mother. His mother had serious mental issues and when he finally started getting close to his real mother as a teen.... she gets killed by an off duty police officer driving drunk... WTF
Rubbish! John never thought Aunt Mimi was his mother and his mother has never been described as anything but a free spirit.
@@debjorgoAnd his father didn't purposely leave he was a merchant seamen who traveled, that's what they do!people love twisting 💩
@@chuckyoneill9029 And his father wanted to take John with him when he left.
@@debjorgo Exactly,John also moved Freddy in when he got sick it's amazing how people leave this out,thanks
Nice Katie you have watched imagine and woman maybe you can check Mother by John Lennon... John and his Japanese wife Yoko Ono..or try to find his son Julian Lennon's single..
Love your reaction to this great song sweetheart
more lennon more lennon more lennon
love the song...
John & Yoko. 😊👍❤️
John Lennon - Watching the Wheels
Casal icônico Yoko Ono & John Lennon ❤
Great reaction! If you like this you should try jealous guy by him about how he reacted when she told him about her previous lovers!
best. I recommend Love, Gme some Truth, The Word etc.out. beautiful smile.
I recommend you check out 'In My Life' & 'Here, There, And Everywhere' by the Beatles if you like love songs. There's no one better at it, or anything else for that matter. 👍
Okay then your in love you made perfect sense. Love love stay gorgous.
No one looks like anynone else. Everyone looks only like themselves.
it very much is a woman reaction

@@iygirl I’m American (Kingsport, Tennessee), but I spent 2 months work assignment in Glascoed / Abergavenny in 2008. Beautiful country and people!
My goodness you're incredibly beautiful!! Beautiful song and a beautiful woman.. perfection! Sad fact...the b&w photo of John is of him dead.
It is a pretty song.
beautiful song about his wife Yoko.
"For the other half of the sky"
Shot in the back five times outside his home shortly after he made this album.
Hello :) Just thought you might like to know that your Patreon link doesn't work. Nice reaction! :)
John found freedom in NYC
❤❤❤❤❤
La música el idioma universal (music the universal language)
The intro background is a little bit similar to the rhytm background of Michael Jackson's Black or White in a fast pace..
You should listen to the other Woman Song that John Lennon wrote and tell me he is still a Legend, go for it.
And what song, pray tell, are you referring to? If it's "Woman is the Nigger of the World" and you hold it in derision then you don't understand John Lennon and you don't understand allegory and metaphor.
Давай ещё Леннона
Very good!
Amazing
