A voice that could nearly bring tears to your eyes.

And he wrote some great songs too.

I agree that there was something magical about Lennon's voice. He and McCartney harmonized so well. The last verse of Hey Jude when Lennon joins McCartney right before everyone sings in the chorus was about the best 30 seconds of music The Beatles ever did IMO. Lennon wrote some outstanding songs (and some real junk, too).

As a human, Lennon left a lot to be desired a lot of the time. Not that unusual for artists. I doubt that Nixon's national security concerns about John Lennon had any merit, though.
