- Today, December 8, 2020, it is exactly 40 years ago that the world was shocked by the death of John Lennon.
In honour of John Lennon, who never attended the Toppop studio, we hereby publish the only Toppop performance of his son Julian in the Toppop studio on 11 February 1985.
John Charles Julian Lennon (born 8 April 1963) is an English singer, musician, photographer and philanthropist. He is the founder of the White Feather Foundation.
He is the son of the Beatles member John Lennon and his first wife, Cynthia, and was the direct inspiration for three Beatles' songs: "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" (1967), "Hey Jude" (1968), and "Good Night" (1968). His parents divorced in 1968.
He has produced a number of albums, beginning with Valotte (1984). He has also held exhibitions of his photography.
In 2006, Lennon produced the environmental documentary film WhaleDreamers, and in 2020, Lennon also worked on the documentary film Women of the White Buffalo, as one of the executive producers.
Valotte reached #9 in the US charts and #55 in the UK charts.

I remember hearing this and thinking it was John. I was totally blown away when saw the video and realised it was Julian. He's an amazing artist. He proved that John's genes are deeply embedded within him and he is not just the son of John Lennon, he is Julian Lennon, his talent is crystal clear to all who have eyes to see or ears to hear.
I think alot of people had the same shock
Yeh good singer
Hermosoooo❤❤❤❤
Stessa cosa ho pensato anche io!
Same here
Sure Yoko hates it but this is John Lennon in vocals...and in quality of composition.
Julian took a sad song and made it better.
He became a great man on his own.
JULIAN LENNON IS A CLASS ACT... Stood by his mother's side very close to his mother respectful and remains humble not easy to be a Beatles son can you imagine he sounds a lot like his father and he looks like a combination of both parents he is the complete package body-wise look wise personality-wise that impression my gosh loved him since I was 14 years of age what a man God bless
And having a father that abandoned him.
ABSOLUTELY REMARKABLE. AND THIS WAS JULIAN'S DEBUT ALBUM !!!
I know!!!! It went platinum!!!
You can't buy greatness!!!
Julian Lennon have a Great Talent
Like his father
@LILIAN VAZ PRO yah Thay were
His father would be proud of him, for sure.
1984. The year when Julian Lennon recorded his first album Valotte. AWESOME memories. ❤
I don't think it was 1984 but much later.
@@michelottaviani8541 Yes it was in 1984. I bought the album that year.
1984 I was 10
@@Callmethebreeze902 I just turned 25 that year when Valotte came out. 😊
@@michaelfleming40we are old now. I was 20. It doesn't seem that long ago.
Remembering an underrated good song by an underrated artist. What a good memories.
This is a great song. He really sounds like his father when he sings this song. He is really talented in his own right!
Beautiful song, beautiful voice. ❤❤❤
Me gusta mucho esta canción. La voz de Julian Lennon es tan bella y la música sumamente encantadora.
A wonderful classic by Julian. He really captured the essence of his father’s style in this song, right down to the falsetto in his voice.
Jesus, how spooky is this, gives me goosebumps. Sounds exactly like dad. 😇
More popular than Jesus?
@@ronfowlermusicBro what do you mean?
I love this song, both the tune and the unique lyrics. It reminds me of the mid 1980s and my bittersweet adolescent years. Julian is very talented and a wonderful person.

Totalmente, Paul McCartney fue un buen padre que es muy querido también por su talento como artista.
Julian is such a talented young man. This was one of my favourite songs as a child
Same!!!
Julian Lennon is soo gorgeous💓
Julian is the best in every sense!!My heart is for him!!
I love the man;the artist,the poet,the songwriter,the philantropist...Everything if him..Thank you Julian for existing in my heart and in my life
❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Julian aquí se ve magestuoso💂no me importa que lo comparen con su padre es talentoso, único y tiene su propio talento. "Julian lennon forever" love you😙❤
This was my favorite song growing up. Julian has talent wish he'd sing again
He'll be dropping a new album in September 2022.
Truly amazing song .feels like your in a dream going back in time in the 80s
I love Julian Lennon. Great song. Thanks TopPop❤❤
Julian’s vocal, songwriting and production is beyond phenomenal. ♥️
Nossa como parece o pai! Música linda! Até sua voz é igual! Lizia!😆👍👍👍❤️👏👏👏👏
Lovely Julian, I never listened to this song before, thank you for sharing.
Una de las mejores canciones de Julian!! 👏👏
Julian Lennon, U will Always b the BEST !
Hijo de tigre puntito ,ni hablar cuando hay talento lo hay y si que lo hay, hermosa melodía, simplemente encantador
I felled for Julian, in the moment I was listening to his "help yourself" album, back in my teenage years... He has those beautiful voice + lyrics. And his masculine but special aura... just extraordinary! ❤
He's a rare breed when it comes to writing singing and performing music. Very insightful.....visionary and artist in all forms. 💋
What a terrific single and debut album from Julian. The only question I have is how a talent like he does not go onto superstardom in pop music? Having caught a few recent interviews of him, he clearly has his head screwed on right; a very likable fella.
I saw him answer your question in an interview once; said he couldn't stand the people in the business, not so much the musicians he played with, but on a executive /mgmt level. There's alot of narcissism, backstabbing, ego, greed, corruption, and even occasionally murder in that business. He took the Divine route (commentor above said he "looked like an angel " ???)
@@joekingsbury9595 Joe, appreciate that perspective!
He was so beautiful in that time, looked like an angel. ❤
Julián lennon its Amazing Beatle wonderful
I absolutely love this song. So beautifully melancholy that you just want to give Julian a big hug.
Yesss!! Like at father,voice,chorus,lyrics and personality. A Némesis of the GREAT Master of Liverpool!!!
This song is a masterpiece ✨
Julian has his own talent beautiful!!!!!!
Nostalgia 😢
❤️
Linda.... sou apaixonada nesta música desde menina
Cómo bailábamos pegados!!! Epoca única!!❤❤
Adorable young talented Julian now he is older Adorable
Desde chile escuchando esta hermosa cancion
My beautifull boy 010622 👍😘
Hermosa melodía 🥰
Hermoso niño Lennon👍😎😘
Maybe, the most beautiful song... The music, the lyrics, It sounds perfect...
This IS Julian Lennon's epic! When it was first released money thought it was a lost John Lennon track. This is probably the reason why most songs Julian released sound like the younger generation rather than his father.
This song/performance is one of the things that I recall upon my move from the East Coast for all of my life in New England and New York I’m starting a job in Salt Lake City Utah
I felt very strange, among the typography and
people of the far western United States were new to me. This song reminds me that it was playing all the time every time I was listening to a radio. Julian’s song made me feel more at home than I would’ve been out in the west of Utah in Salt Lake City in a new job.
Lembra o pai John Lennon. Parabéns
masterpeice
This song is insane ! In a good way !
Sounds like a mix of The Beatles, Elton John and Christopher Cross, yet a singular song. Great achievement.
julian lennon con una cancion maravillosa
Julian has a wonderful talent and a beautiful voice! This is my favorite song by him!❤❤❤
Hear this song so much, usually when walking in to a supermarket or pharmacy in the Boston area. Fantastic track
Grandioso tema. 👏
This is a remarkable video in the history of music. The son continued musical activities at a high level. The video was co-watched on Dec 8, 2020 at 5 p.m. (Greenwich M.T.) Thanks to Toppop & UA-cam!
For years, before the internet, this was my favorite John Lennon solo-era song... 😂.
Wikipedia - “Valotte is the debut studio album by singer-songwriter Julian Lennon. The album was produced by Phil Ramone and recorded at several studios from February to August 1984. It was released in October 1984 on Charisma and Atlantic. The album was first certified gold in the United States, in the new year, then shortly afterwards being certified platinum. From the album, four singles were released, each with a music video, charting at various positions on the singles charts in both the United Kingdom and US. "Too Late for Goodbyes", the second US single, and "Valotte", the first US single, were both US Billboard Top 10 hits, the former reaching No. 5 and the latter reaching No. 9. The album peaked at No. 17 in the US and No. 20 in the UK. Lennon toured the US, Australia, and Japan in March-June 1985.”
Love this song 💛, Love Julian Lennon ❤ ,and this is from a tv music show from my youth 💚. Thanks for sharing this one Toppop 🙏
The melody is so compelling, and haunting
What a talent, thanks for posting this video on this special day. Something lives on...
Es como que se la hubiese compuesto el papá. Debió haber sacado más canciones Julián...
You have so many Talent is great, wonderful.
The year I gave birth to my 1st born. Hauntingly beautiful song. Thank you Julian. ❤
He is definitely his own artist, and got where he got due to his own talent. But wow does he sound like dad. He's adorable as well ❤
Julian é incrível, é uma pena que seu pai não valorizou...❤❤❤
Have loved this song and record since the day it was released......*sigh*💖💖💖💘💘💘
Hermoso Julian. Eres. Un Niño Bonito. Dios Te Bendiga Siempre... 💋
Now that I am 60 yo....i can see the hard time Julian got when persoming live. The Generation X was too YOUNG! to realise the greatest of the 80d, the greatnest of Julian.
Great artist

December 10th, 2023❤
Love this song. So talented
Hermosa balada muy parecida la voz del padre genial
Beautiful music...💖🎶
I feel extremely jealous of those who lived in that amazing era, 80s, that music, amazing artist and movies, so memorable and for me the most fashion moment in humanity, at least I can hear the magic of the music
Never heard this, but wow! This is great, it has that mix of late 70’s early 80’s feel to it.....awesome....thank you for sharing...
Most underrated man in music him and Ringo..
I saw Julian in concert in 1985.
Still one of my most favorite concerts. Hope he tours again one day.
So beautiful and talented👏🎶🎶
Great song !! ♫
Love the man!
My father bought me this tape for Christmas and i am forever grateful he did. He passed a couple years later and i always think of the great times we had and how much he sacrificed to give me a great childhood
Él hijo tiene la vos parecida ah su padre es hijo de tigre canta muy bien y él parecido es idéntico ha su padre que en Paz descanse.....
I love Julian,
Canta bello, como cantaba su padre
JULIAN LENNON IS THE TOATAL PACKAGE. BLESS HIM
I know one thing, I am totally still loving John Lennon, simply put, for dear Julian, one hard act to follow, but I see some difference and I think as much of this amazing young man as I did his, and as always thanks for the joy u amazing artists bring to me each and every day, beautifully done, Julian ❤❤❤❤❤
