All his greatest work does or seems to do that—Help! Anyway—point well taken. See I would say that Paul has made just as intense of an effort to reach across that divide between star and audience. Paul has spent his career trying to get fans to treat him normally, to stop screaming and have a conversation.
There are countless reports of him being kind to people who approached him on the street. He has never seemed to disdain the fans. And George could be downright rude to them. Wisely put, Anon.
Thanks for bringing it up. He never apologized for who he was just half-heartedly for what he said , and even with some effort, he could never fully conceal. He was both hero and sympathetic rebel. When had there been a pop star like him before… or since? There seems to be an interesting backlash against the so-called Lennon Legend… an attempt to take him down a peg or two from the pedestal some sectors of the public have put him on because of his somewhat ironic metamorphosis into a peacenik.
Btw, most fan accounts claim that John was almost invariably very warm and gracious… as your post clearly illustrates. John was simply the most interesting… fascinating, actually. Lennon did not like the sound of his voice and loved to double-track his records. He would often ask the band's producer, George Martin, to cover the sound of his voice: "Can't you smother it with tomato ketchup or something? Lennon wrote some of the most indelible pop songs of the 20th century—and he apparently hated every minute of it.
On February 11, , The Beatles spent one very long day recording 10 songs that would appear on their debut album, Please Please Me. While dining with his former producer, George Martin, one night years after the band had split up, Lennon revealed that he'd like to re-record every Beatles song. Completely amazed, Martin asked him , "Even 'Strawberry Fields'? George Harrison was the first Beatle to go vegetarian; according to most sources, he officially became a vegetarian in Paul McCartney joined the "veggie" ranks a few years later.
Ringo became a vegetarian not so much for spiritual reasons, like Paul and George, but because of health problems. Lennon had toyed with vegetarianism in the s, but he always ended up eating meat, one way or another.
During his Beatles days, Lennon was a devout Monopoly player. He had his own Monopoly set and often played in his hotel room or on planes.
He liked to stand up when he threw the dice, and he was crazy about the properties Boardwalk and Park Place. He didn't even care if he lost the game, as long as he had Boardwalk and Park Place in his possession. Lennon got his driver's license at the age of 24 on February 15, He was regarded as a terrible driver by all who knew him.
He finally gave up driving after he totaled his Aston-Martin in on a trip to Scotland with his wife, Yoko Ono; his son, Julian; and Kyoko, Ono's daughter. Lennon needed 17 stitches after the accident. When they returned to England, Lennon and Ono mounted the wrecked car on a pillar at their home. From then on, Lennon always used a chauffeur or driver.
Did these stars lie about how they met their partner when in reality they stalked them? Think of John Lennon right now. While he was in the Beatles he sang about how love is all you need. S o what do you think? Do you agree with me or do you sympathise with Lennon? Let me know in the comments below or tweet me your opinion blinkclyro. As always, thanks for reading.

All this leaves is the foul taste of sensationalism and a cash in with all the SJW and feminists readers. So what the guy hit women? Is it right? Certainly not, but should anyone change their opinion on an artist based on scandal? The separation of art and artist. What a infantile understanding of art. Disregarding the fact that practicing Hindu meditation is not following the religion, unless I am mistaken, and astrology-lets face it- is a joke.
Like Liked by 2 people. Cheers for leaving feedback though, I appreciate it and thanks for leaving an opinion. Without debate then is there really much point in anything? Perhaps I was a little hasty in making a critique, I still stand by my statement on the sensationalist, Buzzfeed nature of this, but I have to commend that you articulated your argument in spite of my lack of understanding. Why is it, that because of social status, he has to assume a character of political correctness and sainthood?
