Hey people, I like Neil! I liked John Lennon as well. By religion he meant the organized variety that we see in Wackostan, not true spiritualness. They both know there's hell...still looking for heaven

Here's what Lennon said about the song:

"It is the concept of positive prayer. If you want to get a car, get the car keys. Get it? 'Imagine' is saying that. If you can imagine a world at peace, with no denominations of religion--not without religion but without the my-God-is-bigger-than-your-God thing--then it can be true."

I think it's a great song. And, I liked Neil Young's cover of it--crazy-lookin' ol' Neil still has a voice that harmonizes with itself.
