I think I first heard “Imagine” when I was 9 or 10....I hated it then, and 30 more years has only solidified my initial opinion.

Be careful what you ask for Lennon fans...

The song, if you take it seriously, is a three-minute blueprint for civilizational collapse.

Very good article! They (meaning the local Unitarian and Methodist "ministers" and some city officials) had the nerve to sing this idiotic bit of blather at our 9/11 memorial one year. I left.

My only thought is that people never seriously listen to the lyrics; they're just thinking, "oooh, John Lennon," although I never saw anything that fantastic about him, either.

And "Imagine" has a whiny, irritating melody, on top of everything else.

“Nothing to kill or die for” has always meant to me having nothing to live for, either.

Cee-Lo felt instinctively uncomfortable with this beautiful atheist/communist lullaby. Good for him.
