THE REVIEW

Imagine a beautiful dream, a dream you believe impossible, a vision of nonexistent beauties, of utopian beauties, a vision of heaven and earth meeting. Imagine infinite pleasure, a day that seems to never end, a day of shining sun and great hopes and just as many certainties.

Imagine walking on water, being able to climb the highest mountains, imagine the sun that never sets on the horizon and the smile of the people around you. No hatred, no anger, no sadness, no depression! You are in the universe as a world citizen, and as a good world citizen, you live on what you truly need, you live on what makes you happy, you stay with people and fear nothing and no one, you sleep peacefully at night and wake up just as peacefully.

Imagine a world where you can make a difference, a world without borders where opportunities come in cascades; if you make a mistake you can repair it, if you succeed you move to the next stage. Imagine waking up on a Sunday morning and feeling good about yourself, being particularly sober, particularly alive. Imagine a sky without clouds, without ripples, without flaw. It would be nice to have a world with no wars, no religions, no useless quarrels, where money holds no more value than a relationship between men and women, children and the elderly. Imagine all this and smile because you hope. Keep dreaming because you are not alone in the world, and there are other people who hope like you that one day the world will change. Do not worry about anything, do not be afraid of anything, because nothing is scary if you think positively. Just imagine!

Imagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try. No hell below us, above us only sky. Imagine all the people living for today ... Imagine there's no countries

John Lennon

John Lennon (1940–1980) was a British singer-songwriter and a member of the Beatles, later pursuing a highly influential solo career. His solo work spans raw, autobiographical rock (John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band), melodic and idealistic pop/rock (Imagine), mid-’70s introspection (Walls and Bridges), and a late return to recording with Double Fantasy-era material.

 "The album's title track became an epochal anthem with great idealistic, pacifist meaning but an easy and catchy melody."

 "Much less original and raw than Plastic Ono Band, Imagine still manages to offer a bunch of enjoyable songs at a good musical and poetic level."


By Kecco

 John Lennon, a man, a story, a symbol... sit on a comfortable sofa, close your eyes, and instead of eating a togo, put on this song.

 Imagine there's no Heaven... try... it's easy no hell below us above us only sky... imagine all the people living for today...


By katharsys

 The pseudo-pacifist and politicized echoes of the flower children’s era were reflected in one of the artists who had made the most genuine part of the beat generation great, ruining the social and mental setup of an undoubtedly influential man.

 Honor to John Lennon’s assassin. He freed us from a criminal and much other socialist and repetitive music.


By simo ghelli

 "Jealous Guy" is a masterpiece ballad, conceivable only by an ex-Beatle.

 The greatness of this song and of Lennon lies in this: 'being beautiful and simple for what one is.'
