Beautiful Boy (Darling Boy) (Ultimate Mix) The stories of Rock - but also ours, mine for sure - are always based on a solid foundation of truth and on… feelings, emotions, romance, adrenaline… from those who tell them. This is why the narratives are all different, even if just slightly, but distinct… everyone adds their own perspective (let’s obviously leave aside the gratuitous lies from the scummy, greedy kinds).
June 4, 1980. One of the greatest songwriters of all time, yes, HIM, John Winston Lennon, hasn’t written anything in years… he’s tried but can’t seem to get a single word down. In New York, he has developed a passion for sailing. He’s learned to pilot a boat. He organizes a cruise to Bermuda. Him, Yoko, Sean, three friends, and the captain. During the journey, the sailing vessel is caught in a violent storm. The skipper is exhausted, everyone else is panicking… Lennon takes command, gets exhilarated, saves everything and everyone, and days later arrives in Bermuda.
In Bermuda, he suddenly rediscovers his creative spark. In just over a month, he writes all the songs that will make up Double Fantasy…
Often, it takes an unexpected rush of adrenaline to pull you out of malaise and depression.
Everything comes to light from the logs of the Megan Jaye in the new millennium… complete with video, app, and various modern nonsense: The Bermuda Tapes or something like that…
It’s possible, of course, that someone will tell it differently… and that’s the beauty of it…
Unfortunately, shortly after, his renewed energy will be definitively brought to a close… at least in this world…
