Lost my mom to cancer 2 months ago. These past few weeks since she's passed have been painful but also just so strange. Everything reminds me of her, and everyday reminds me of something of her. She used to listen to this song a lot, and I only just remembered today. Here's to you mom, hope you're enjoying watching the wheels now.
I'm so sorry to hear about your loss! Our mothers are very special and try to remember all the good times you were both gifted with! Remember, everyday is one day closer to seeing her again!
I'm so sorry to hear about that brother. My ma and dad died of cancer as well, keep your head up and always keep your ma in mind she's watching over ya man, that's a sign that you remembered this song she brought you to the song, keep your head up brother and have a blessed day
May your Mother's passing be a great source of strength to you after the initial shock has gone. This song describes my life for the last 5 years, it's beautiful.
I was 13 when John Lennon was murdered and i remember the songs from this Album being played continuously. The whole album was a complete masterpiece. At least John Lennons part
This is the last song Norm MacDonald shared on social media before his untimely passing. R.I.P. to two legendary artists. They sure knew how to spread the love.
@@stevejrsit’s the last song he shared on his Twitter, just went to verify myself. What a dude Norm was. Hope him and Lennon got to have a chat, RIP to two legends 🙏🏼
This song really hit me when I was going for my Masters degree in Archaeology. All my friends kept asking why I was doing it and how much money could I possibly make with such a degree. It is one of my favorite John Lennon songs.
doing soemthing strictly for money will probably make you miserable your whole life..not many have the passion or courage to do what they truly love or the opportunity to
When I graduated from high school back in the mid 1980s, I had a passion for anthropology and archaeology. When I told the adults in my life that I wanted to pursue this career field, they all shut me down saying there was no money to be made in that field, and best case I could only become a poor college professor. I didn't think that was such a bad thing considering I also wanted to be a school teacher. They explained to me the error of my thinking and I ended going to school for Electronics/Digital Technology. By the time I was ready to graduate, my education had become obsolete because of the rapid changes in the field. I had a potential employer tell me "You need to go back to school and take X, Y, and Z". I was crushed. I told him "I JUST graduated, and you are telling me I have to go back to school?!? What if it changes again while I am in school again?" He said "That's a strong possibility. The field is changing about every 18 months right now and you have to jump in at just the right time... unless you want to star as a glorified parts assembler." I was working nights at UPS sorting packages, so instead, I became a delivery driver, worked for a few decades, retired, drew my pension, and opened my own shop. All the while reading of the work done by others in the field I had wanted so passionately to be a part of.
I am a recovering addict who was in addictive addiction for many decades and this song reminds me of how I use to feel .My addiction was a Merry go round at times and now I am free .
I was eight when John Lennon was murdered in 1980. At fifty-one, it still breaks my heart. The first time I heard this song was at the County Fair not long before his death. I remember it as if it happened yesterday. It has been said that if you listen to the wind, you can still hear him play. Rest In Peace, John. This fan misses you. 😢💔
I turned 8 myself in 1980 , dec 5th 3 days later the great man was gone , remember it really well , mum was well gutted , being a big Lennon and Beatles fan
I had just turned 7 a few days before his death. I distinctly remember sitting in front of the tv filling out cards for my class Christmas party when I learned of the news. I’ll never forget it. My grandfather passed a few days after.
My word what a fucking great song! The almost psychedelic tremolo that comes when he's watching the wheels is brilliant. How can I miss a guy so much if I never knew him?
I lost one of my daughters to cancer 14 months ago..staying with her at hospice and with her when she took her last breath..2 months ago I lost my Dad when he had a massive stroke that he ever woke up from..so now, I'm just watching the wheels..thank you, John..

In the past 5 years, I've been widowed, lost my youngest daughter to murder, lost my best friend to Covid, and lost my father. At age 62, I can really identify with this song now more than ever before.
The greatest tribute I can give to Mr. Lennon is how thanks to him I am still rockin' stylin' and profilin' He helped one person and that is what life is about~~~Rock on brothers and sisters
Thank you John for making the world a better place 🏴☠️ One of my favorite things these days is just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round ❤️
The whole world was so sad when we last John Lennon it was very very sad times he would have had a lot more music to give the world just like the rest of the Beatles
People say I'm crazy Doing what I'm doing Well, they give me all kinds of warnings To save me from ruin When I say that I'm okay, well they look at me kinda strange "Surely, you're not happy now, you no longer play the game" People say I'm lazy Dreaming my life away Well they give me all kinds of advice Designed to enlighten me When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall "Don't you miss the big time boy, you're no longer on the ball?" I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round I really love to watch them roll No longer riding on the merry-go-round I just had to let it go Ah, people asking questions Lost in confusion Well, I tell them there's no problem Only solutions Well, they shake their heads and they look at me, as if I've lost my mind I tell them there's no hurry, I'm just sitting here doing time I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round I really love to watch them roll No longer riding on the merry-go-round I just had to let it go I just had to let it go I just had to let it go
I feel your pain my brother. As a recovering addict myself, I am now I’m watching my beloved son commit suicide on the installment plan with alcohol/drugs. I feel so helpless. Best of luck to your brother!
Well driving behind a cyclist on a very narrow road I just turned this up loud and we both had a very pleasant drive and ride for most of the song until I had the chance to overtake, I could see that he was smiling when I overtook, rushing around and getting frustrated is for fools, sometimes time is better spent enjoying music.
I'll never forget the first time I heard this song playing in my moms boyfriend's car. I was in love with it. I think I was 12 years old. I begged him to borrow me the CD so I could listen to it more. He didn't want to but ended up saying yes. Love John Lennon. ❤
my long time friend passed May 8, 2022.. and we had chatted before her death. she loved the Beatles.. and i had asked her what song i heard would be her?.. we never did make that decision... so now any Beatles song is from her. She loved them and their music to much to pick just one!!! RIP DARLENE..thanks for the song, this cold, wintery Alberta day.. you not missing much.. hope sunshines and blue skies where you are...
This is typical John Lennon and it distinguishes John from the other Beatles. Paul & George were natural musical geniuses. John was all that but at a level beyond that. He can take his personal experience, internalize it, and like Confucius, coats with philosophy and with the magical touch, articulates majestically. Imagine the volume and the kind of music he would’ve created if he is alive today.
You are so young, hope you get control of your drink problem, it’s evil, it killed my friend and wrecked my relationship to a woman who couldn’t stop drinking. Metal music has negative vibrations and won’t help. Find positive music and lift your life into a positive place. I will pray for you Corey xxx
I hope for you, your health and your family's sake that you find peace and beauty in sobriety instead of dulling/endangering life with alcohol. You're about to reach a turning point. The big THREE OH will arrive before you know it. Knuckle down and get tightened up so it's smooth/easy sailing through your 40s... Worry about your money and growing it for a few years. Heck invest in projects like fixer upper boats or a motorcycle. But if you bike, be safe. Keep your head. Eye's like a hawk 12 rows ahead of ya. You can do it. It's out there to be had. No law says everything has to be "Harley Davidson" or "Bayliner" so don't let brand names keep you from being on 2 wheels or on the water. Sunsets are intoxicating on both. Stay away from w0men. Or at least keep them at a respectable distance. Don't let them take anything from you but your time. Use your time money wisely/sparingly around them. Do not spend excessively on them. They will come and go like cats. Just be nice, honest and genuine with em and that will most certainly chase them off "until you find the right one". If you want to keep one around, treat her poorly. They love crave and desire projects to fix of their own. Since most aren't inclined to fix motorcycles washer dryers etc out the gate They're gonna be needing something to fix or talk about and that would be YOU. They bring nothing to the table and expect everything perfect and handed to them. All they have is their shelf life til they hit the wall at age 40. Their eggs dry up. They don't want to cook or build anything. No patience.. thanks to the internet and tv commercials. You're a man. You can reproduce into your 70s if you play it right/that way. They have very few other talents than that. Which leaves them with mind games. Be prepared for divorce. They just don't make em like they used to. They don't have any work ethic or patience. Their world is their ovaries and what comes out of them and the following... plus being seen spending money. If you father or fathered children be ready for that. Tiny Faces (very talented group) sang a song (OOO LA LA is the title of it) that fits them to a T back in 1973 and you should give it a good listen.. Just play it cool. Keep your smarts and be patient. Life Buffers. Sidenote; Karaoke helped me whip drinking at age 28. I felt more higher than any drunk I'd been after singing. So I switched to coffee and Sang My Booze out every night for nearly 2 years in Tampa. Woke up with no hangovers and plenty more money leftover in my pocket each morning in comparison to booze nights. After that I switched to Golf for 12 years. Hope this helps. Sending good vibrations your way brother. ✌☮ P.S. don't listen to those haters about metal. It's the bomb. I still rock some Chuck Schuldiner from time to time. I also listen to jazz, disco, punk, ska, soul, classic country, hip hop, house jazz, 70s/80s rock pop, Never let anyone make you one dimensional. I've seen Slayer, GWAR, 5 times. Plus plenty other great shows. Metal is Truth and thats a tough pill for society to swallow these days. (Gen X 1971)
I was an alcoholic at 28 too my friend. I'm 35 now, and alcohol no longer controls me. You have a very hard time to go through, but I absolutely promise that you're not alone, and that life without booze is completely worth it. All those things you're ashamed of, there are millions of others who have similar stories. You can learn from that shame, and stop feeling it. Be humble, listen, and be brave enough to be honest. Make peace with those you have conflict with, and with yourself for the mistakes you've made. Don't blame others, take responsibility, and act how you wish others had treated you. It's hard, it takes time, and you are the only one who can do it. Good luck.
Some backstory for those not old enough to know or remember. After the Beatles, during his solo career, Lennon became so disillusioned with the music industry that he stopped making music for 5 years. He then heard a song with a strong Elvis vibe popular at the time( can't recall which) and knew it was time for him to come back. This was the main hit from his new album. I was so glad he was back to making music. A few months later, he was killed and I felt it was such a waste.
Hey mate I'm 50 now I remember listening to this song when I was 8 on the transistor radio, here in Adelaide, South Australia,, stay strong mate,,, great songs bring back great memories
Every time I hear this song I think that John had finally concord his deacons and was finally secure with himself and all the good and bad that he had done in his life and finally found contentment.
Lost my mom to cancer 2 months ago. These past few weeks since she's passed have been painful but also just so strange. Everything reminds me of her, and everyday reminds me of something of her.

Cry then
May your Mother's passing be a great source of strength to you after the initial shock has gone. This song describes my life for the last 5 years, it's beautiful.
A masterpiece. This song should have over a billion views.
No it shouldn't. If it did it would be as tedious as Imagine. Let's leave this song as a hidden gem please.
If the views went to the families of John Lennon
It's better than "Imagine" but I wouldn't call it a masterpiece.
@@krowta2062 👍
shhhhh , this one is like a hidden gem. it’s played when required .
The late John Lennon a legend
There is one thing wrong with this song. It ends too soon.
Just like Lennon's life and career.
I was 13 when John Lennon was murdered and i remember the songs from this Album being played continuously. The whole album was a complete masterpiece. At least John Lennons part
I remember too. I was 11.
So sorry honnie, I hope your memories are good, that's all we have .🙏☮️♥️🤍☮️🫶🌸🍀☘️
I was 26?
I can't find words to answer.
None at all.
You can only take solace in that you were chosen to suffer.
Quo vadiis.
I was 1 but he was very present in my home . Dad loved Paul. Mom loved John. I got plenty of both, but not a ton of Beatles oddly enough.
" There are no problems .
Only solutions " ......If only we would listen.
What an outstanding song! RIP John! Love your music!
could not had said it any better rock on jose
John is one of the greatest composers of music history, and proof is this immortal theme. Thanks for your talent and rest in peace! 🎈🎼💙💛

And I love the comment. I miss Norm. I didn't even know he was sick
Rest in Peace
Amazing songwriter a once and a lifetime musical talent there will never be another musician like Mr John Lennon
Preach
The fact that people told him he was lazy and that he was insecure enough to write about it says volumes about who he was as an artist.
I was 15 when Double Fantasy came out. I simply loved the record. And then Dec 8th came and part of my young adulthood was gone.
We still love you john
Try to save me from Ruin damm john
I have cancer and this song give me the strength to carry on thank you John hope we don't meet to soon
It will be great look forward to it 🤍
Best wishes for you from Tijuana Mexico. Send you a big hug!

Love for you. Enjoy the music and the time
NOW IS ALWAYS THE BEST TIME !
This song really hit me when I was going for my Masters degree in Archaeology. All my friends kept asking why I was doing it and how much money could I possibly make with such a degree. It is one of my favorite John Lennon songs.
Masters in Archeology! Only few can understand the magic of archeology and money is not everything! Big hugs from Greece wishing you every success!
Your "friends" don't have to live your life. You were right in questioning that, and I'm guessing that you made the right decisions. Good for you!

Watching the Wheels and God are easily my favorite solo Lennon songs..... never get sick of them.

What an absolutely brilliant song! This is why music invented humans!

Rip To A Great Singer, Songwriter John Lennon,We Still Miss You Always
The whole world was so sad when we last John Lennon it was very very sad times he would have had a lot more music to give the world just like the rest of the Beatles
People say I'm crazy
Doing what I'm doing
Well, they give me all kinds of warnings
To save me from ruin
When I say that I'm okay, well they look at me kinda strange
"Surely, you're not happy now, you no longer play the game"
People say I'm lazy
Dreaming my life away
Well they give me all kinds of advice
Designed to enlighten me
When I tell them that I'm doing fine watching shadows on the wall
"Don't you miss the big time boy, you're no longer on the ball?"
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
Ah, people asking questions
Lost in confusion
Well, I tell them there's no problem
Only solutions
Well, they shake their heads and they look at me, as if I've lost my mind
I tell them there's no hurry, I'm just sitting here doing time
I'm just sitting here watching the wheels go round and round
I really love to watch them roll
No longer riding on the merry-go-round
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go
I just had to let it go
I love this, very few people realize how right John Lennon was.
John's final statement regarding The Beatles when you think of it
Thank you for the time!
I believe it is about leaving the business to focus on parenting exclusively.
I'm watching my brother battle addiction to fake pressed pills. As a former drugy myself, I play this song every day hoping he will find himself.
Best Wishes with your Struggle!
If he becomes a saved and born again GOD will take it away. And make him new from the inside out. And put a new song in his mouth and heart.
Hugs 🙏
Wow me too. I'm an addict and this song speaks to me personally. Sober now
I feel your pain my brother. As a recovering addict myself, I am now I’m watching my beloved son commit suicide on the installment plan with alcohol/drugs. I feel so helpless. Best of luck to your brother!
Truly genius ❤ what happened today we don’t have great musicians like john
i'm comming soon...i wiil try to be.😎
What a great song this is John had it figured out 💯
Just a great song that sums up life. We all are just watching the wheels go round and that's alright.
Lyrically and musically brilliant. No one is accountable to anyone. Just do what stirs within you, regardless of how others may perceive it...
That day he was killed was for my life a low point. Glad his legacy lives on!
I give my son his surname in 2003. You're a big miss John, especially in these times❤
This is my favorite John Lennon song!
My mom loved John Lennon and so do I cause my Mom was and will never be wrong ❤️😔.I love you momma 😢
I love John and I love this song I love all of John Lennon's music
I lost my Aunt and Grandma in the same month 😢...I keep getting this song stuck in my head😊
It's a lovely song always sounds fresh
Indeed. A masterpiece of a. Songwriter.
I feel your pain. Lost my dad. Embrace the good things. Let the tears fall.bitll get better
Sorry for your loss. I hope you’re doing well.
One of my favourite Lennon songs.
Hello how are you doing
i can’t even “imagine” what he would’ve accomplished if his amazing life wasn’t cut short.
That wasn't John just making a song. He was living the song.
Man, those cats could write music.....
Ya think???
A master of word play
Well driving behind a cyclist on a very narrow road I just turned this up loud and we both had a very pleasant drive and ride for most of the song until I had the chance to overtake, I could see that he was smiling when I overtook, rushing around and getting frustrated is for fools, sometimes time is better spent enjoying music.
I'll never forget the first time I heard this song playing in my moms boyfriend's car. I was in love with it. I think I was 12 years old.

He used to struggle a lot until find his inner peace and when he finally did - this song is a testimony - he was murdered.

You're a man. You can reproduce into your 70s if you play it right/that way. They have very few other talents than that. Which leaves them with mind games.
Be prepared for divorce. They just don't make em like they used to. They don't have any work ethic or patience. Their world is their ovaries and what comes out of them and the following... plus being seen spending money. If you father or fathered children be ready for that. Tiny Faces (very talented group) sang a song (OOO LA LA is the title of it) that fits them to a T back in 1973 and you should give it a good listen..
Just play it cool. Keep your smarts and be patient.
Life Buffers.
Sidenote; Karaoke helped me whip drinking at age 28. I felt more higher than any drunk I'd been after singing. So I switched to coffee and Sang My Booze out every night for nearly 2 years in Tampa. Woke up with no hangovers and plenty more money leftover in my pocket each morning in comparison to booze nights. After that I switched to Golf for 12 years.
Hope this helps. Sending good vibrations your way brother.

P.S. don't listen to those haters about metal. It's the bomb. I still rock some Chuck Schuldiner from time to time. I also listen to jazz, disco, punk, ska, soul, classic country, hip hop, house jazz, 70s/80s rock pop,
Never let anyone make you one dimensional. I've seen Slayer, GWAR, 5 times. Plus plenty other great shows. Metal is Truth and thats a tough pill for society to swallow these days.

I was an alcoholic at 28 too my friend. I'm 35 now, and alcohol no longer controls me. You have a very hard time to go through, but I absolutely promise that you're not alone, and that life without booze is completely worth it. All those things you're ashamed of, there are millions of others who have similar stories. You can learn from that shame, and stop feeling it. Be humble, listen, and be brave enough to be honest. Make peace with those you have conflict with, and with yourself for the mistakes you've made. Don't blame others, take responsibility, and act how you wish others had treated you. It's hard, it takes time, and you are the only one who can do it. Good luck.
Watching the wheels going around and around. Great song ❤.
I love this song.Thanks,John!❤
What a catastrophic loss...we miss you john
Some backstory for those not old enough to know or remember. After the Beatles, during his solo career, Lennon became so disillusioned with the music industry that he stopped making music for 5 years. He then heard a song with a strong Elvis vibe popular at the time( can't recall which) and knew it was time for him to come back. This was the main hit from his new album. I was so glad he was back to making music. A few months later, he was killed and I felt it was such a waste.
Hey mate I'm 50 now I remember listening to this song when I was 8 on the transistor radio, here in Adelaide, South Australia,, stay strong mate,,, great songs bring back great memories

Nice to hear this song 🤘🥰
Every time I hear this song I think that John had finally concord his deacons and was finally secure with himself and all the good and bad that he had done in his life and finally found contentment.
Say what you want he was a very talented musician.
