A new Lennon and McCartney collaboration is the last thing anybody expected. Yet fans of the Beatles have been taken by surprise by a new single released by the sons of two of the Fab Four - James McCartney and Sean Ono Lennon, who are both musicians themselves. The new single, entitled “Primrose Hill” after a park in north London that offers a panoramic view of the city, was announced by McCartney, son of Paul and his late wife Linda, on Instagram four days ago.

The Japanese artist has been a touchstone of popular culture for more than half a century. She retains such an energetic inquisitiveness about the world of art, it’s hard to believe that, in earth years, so to speak, Yoko Ono is now in her tenth decade on the planet. Born in Tokyo on February 18, 1933, the Japanese artist has conducted herself with great dignity and resilience as a prominent cultural figure for more than half a century. After meeting John Lennon when he was one of perhaps the four most famous people in the world, she has kept his...

"Yoko actually helped a lot with the lyrics, but I wasn't man enough to let her have credit for it," Lennon confessed to reporter David Sheff during a series of interviews for Playboy magazine published just two days before Lennon was shot dead on December 8, 1980. In early 1971, Lennon finished the lyrics (and Ono's input was officially credited in 2017) and in June that year, he recorded takes at the purpose-built studio at his Tittenhurst Park mansion home — sound engineer Eddie Veale, who helped construct the studio, called it "the first professional home studio in the...

Dear friends, I grew up in the world for 24 years before I came to Christ, so I know its thinking and ways because I once lived it and walked its course (Eph. 2:1-14). As I was at work, they were playing the world's Christmas carols which have a secular and demonic mood to it of utopia dreams through relativism and bankrupt human love; which excludes RIGHTEOUSNESS and Almighty God; man's ETERNAL RIGHTEOUS Creator (Rom. 1:18-32). One song that was played today was John Lennon's, So This Is X-mas (War is Over). I had to laugh as I listened to...

Superstar country music couple Trisha Yearwood and Garth Brooks performed an odd song to sing at former first lady Rosalynn Carter’s funeral on Tuesday with John Lennon’s anti-religious, left-wing themed song “Imagine,” even though Carter was a devout Southern Baptist Christian. The singers, dressed all in black, performed an acoustic rendition of the vapid Lennon song which contains the lyrics “Imagine there’s no Heaven,” “No hell below us Above us, only sky,” and “Imagine… no religion, too.” The pair delivered a nice recitation of the popular, left-wing dream tune, certainly. But to sing that there is no heaven and no...

Happy Xmas (War Is Over) (Ultimate Mix) · John Lennon · Yoko Ono
-
What a haunting song. This is from John Lennon' demo he made in 1977. Yoko gave the demo to Paul McCartney while they were making the Anthology in 1994. They couldn't have pulled it off without Peter Jackson and former Beatles producer George Martin's son, Giles. Nevertheless enjoy the song.

The Beatles are ready to drop their so-called final single. It drops Thursday morning 9am Eastern, 6am Western. “Now and Then” is a reworking of a 1978 John Lennon song, just as “Real Love” was 30 years ago. The Beatles’ social media pages have added a mysterious picture of a cassette about to end on its A side. This is a Bat signal that the record, which Paul McCartney first mentioned months ago, is on its way. This is NOT artificial intelligence. It’s just Paul and Ringo adding their contributions to Lennon’s original recording. They’ve got a George Harrison bit...

Paul McCartney wrote “Hey Jude” for a young Julian Lennon who was caught in the middle of a divorce between his mother and his father, John Lennon. According to the song’s subject, he has a “love-hate” relationship with the music. “I’ve probably heard that song and heard renditions of it more than most people alive,” Lennon said in a new appearance on Club Random with Bill Maher. “And even my dear friends send me babies in nappies playing guitars singing ‘Hey Jude’–which I really don’t need

NEW YORK (AP) — Jann Wenner, who co-founded Rolling Stone magazine and also was a co-founder of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame, has been removed from the hall’s board of directors after making comments that were seen as disparaging toward Black and female musicians. “Jann Wenner has been removed from the Board of Directors of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation,” the hall said Saturday, a day after Wenner’s comments were published in a New York Times interview. Wenner created a firestorm doing publicity for his new book “The Masters,” which features interviews with musicians Bob...

Two different guns may have been used in the December 8, 1980 shooting of music icon John Lennon, RadarOnline.com has learned. According to British author and TV producer David Whelan, two different types of bullets were removed from Lennon's body during the autopsy. One was marked as a Semi-wadcutter or hollow-point bullet, while the other was listed as a 38-caliber lead bullet. Whelan believes that the different bullet types add weight to his theory that a second shooter was involved in the killing. The author has spent three years investigating the murder and has highlighted several inconsistencies in the official...

Mark David Chapman might be innocent in the murder of John Lennon, according to a British author and TV producer who said his upcoming documentary and book outline how a second shooter might have killed the iconic singer. Chapman may have been brainwashed by the CIA to serve as a patsy, according to David Whelan, who spent three years investigating what he called astonishing inconsistencies in the official narrative of Lennon’s 1980 slaying as well as weird coincidences. Whelan, whose book “Gimme Some Truth – The Assassination of John Lennon” and a documentary will be released later this year, told...

“I still believe that love is all you need,” Paul McCartney continues to proclaim, “I don’t know a better message than that.” And yet John Lennon took that love-uber-alles ethos to such an extreme in the 1970s that even his old rose-tinted mate was retorting, “Too many people preaching practices.” So it’s no surprise that the sardonic duo in Steely Dan rolled their eyes when they heard the ‘Smart One’s’ prayer for peace with ‘Imagine’ and a string of pious talk show appearances in the early 1970s. Steely Dan’s bold response to Lennon’s all-white evangelism signified that the prominent days...

No matter what your views are on the Monarchy of the UK or monarchy in general, Queen Elizabeth II was an absolutely incredible human being and I truly believe this planet was a better place with her in it. Being royalty does not make you better or worse than anyone else… …but this particular Queen was someone who deserved our admiration. I am really sad we’ve lost her. Humanity does not have many people left to show us what dignity and grace—-in the face of all things—-really look like.
