Imagine a Day

Product Information

Barry from Sauquoit, NyOn June 13th 1975, John Lennon gave his last TV performance when he appeared on the ABC-TV documentary special 'A Salute to Sir Lew Grade'...

The song is powerful, and if more people listened to Lennon's message the world might be just a bit more peaceful. Stephan from Pw, NyBrandon, this song refers to a perfect world, and in a perfect world Religion and Nationalism have no meaning so you would be wrong with your assumption, this song is how ever about a perfect world which is the only way "Pure Communism" would work, but the only argument I see is that made by the Capitalist pig-dogs, who refuse to believe that a legend such as John Lennon could possibly sing about a Communist Utopia. Bart from Westmont, NjJohn's best solo work and it ranks up there with "Strawberry Fields" and "You've Got to Hide Your Love Away" in the top level of Lennon songs. Such a great melody and the lyrics, WOW! Just listen to what he is saying, all of us would be so much better off if we lived in peace and harmony with each other, OK, I know I'm a dreamer too but what has caused most of our wars and conflicts, super nationalism, religion and greed. As we approach the anniversary of the death of one of the greatest men of the 20th century let us contine to live by his words in this magnificant song.Danny from New City, NyCorrect me if I'm wrong but this song's foundation piano chord is the same as the one used in The Who's Getting In Tune. I'm no piano player and I'm guessing the chord is a prevalent commonly used one, but the rhythm in which it's played is exactly the same to The Who's Getting In Tune. I also believe both albums came out in the same year. So, did one of the artists steal the song from the other?

Heather from Los Angeles, CaImagine a world...so boring...you...wouldn't...want....toliveinit.......yoohoooooo.....It is very natural that each person, each family, each people, each nation wish to live on and prosper. We want enough food, enough clothes, a roof over our head, a comfortable spot to sleep on, a fulfilling and meaningful work, the warmth of relationship and time for leisure, art and spirituality . . . . in esence, to be. Barry from Sauquoit, NyOn this day in 1981 {January 25th} John Lennon held the two top spots on the United Kingdom's Official Top 75 Singles chart, his "Imagine" was at #1 while "Woman" was at #2... Steven from Bundaberg, AustraliaImagine there's no heaven, it's easy if you try, no hell below us, above us only sky.... Why would you want to imagine no heaven?...heaven is the only place where this utopia of John's exists. This is nothing more than an 'Imagine there's no God and we can all do what we like' - song. People are far too selfish to exist together in harmony without laws with sanctions. Let me quote a Keith Green song that tells it how it is. "..so many laughing at Jesus, while the 'funniest' thing that He's done, is love this poor stubborn, rebellious world, while their hate for Him just goes on...." God wants to SAVE you from your sins and take you to heaven, not join a religion. John was just imagining heaven. Ironic.

Raheem from Sewell, NjThere has been more killing in the name of communism in the 20 century than any crusade or any religious war. The thought of religion causing war is just ignorant to me. If you think this song is not a communist propaganda piece than your not paying attention.By the way, A great song. We strike and preempt, but forget to fix and to prevent. We compete and become professionals at that, but forget that in cooperation lies the harmony of life, in humanity and in the entire planet. The powerful symbolism of the book works in unison with paintings and text to create deeper meaning. It symbolizes objects as more than just its arbitrary symbol, as the quotation ‘when a tree is a ladder between earth and air’ presents the tree as not just a piece of wood, with bark and branches growing from the ground, but as something to be recognized in a different fashion-as a ladder. By drawing on the tree’s connections with the earth and air, it also portrays the beauty of nature, and how to appreciate it.Modest Mouse from Provo, UtI only wish that one day the song could be renamed from "Imagine" to reality. That one day we will all reach out to one another and know that we aren't here alone. There are billions of people in this world. why can't we all just help one another out? Why can't we just live in peace. I only wish that the world could see itself through the eyes of John Lennon. A legend forever in my eyes. Tommy from Tulsa, OkPerhaps it would be served better if you actually did what the song suggests.. instead of trying to analyze everything about it.. Those who believe that Jesus is God are not burdened by him but liberated by him from worldly things. Jesus taught us to wipe the dust off our feet as evidence against those who would not believe the Word of God – not to harm non-believers. Lennon suggests that religion is responsible for man’s inhumane actions to his fellow man. Though this may be true of those with twisted concepts of their religion, it is not true of real Christians. I love puzzles, and Escher, and mazes, and optical illusions .... so it figures that I'd be drawn to this, even as an adult. It's one of those picture books that doesn't tell a story but instead looks to engage with children's imaginations and inspire them.
