John Lennon Instagram - GIRL. 🔴
That's me! Writing about this dream girl again that hadn't come yet. 

‘Girl’ is real. There is no such thing as the girl; she was a dream, but the words are all right. It wasn’t just a song, and it was about that girl – that turned out to be Yoko in the end – the one that a lot of us were looking for.

I never wrote about people except for myself. When Paul and I wrote lyrics in the old days we used to laugh about what Tin Pan Alley people would do. And we’d do it like an exercise. It was only later on that we started to try and match the lyrics to the tune. I like it. It was one of my best. It’s the one we say, ‘tit, tit, tit’ in.

I was just talking about Christianity in that – a thing like you have to be tortured to attain heaven. I’m only saying that I was talking about ‘pain will lead to pleasure’ in ‘Girl’ and that was sort of the Catholic Christian concept – be tortured and then it’ll be all right, which seems to be a bit true but not in their concept of it. But I didn’t believe in that, that you have to be tortured to attain anything, it just so happens that you were.

The song 'Woman' is the grown-up version of 'Girl' to me. 

GIRL.
Is there anybody going to listen to my story
All about the girl who came to stay
She's the kind of girl you want so much 
It makes you sorry
Still you don't regret a single day

Ah girl 
Girl girl

When I think of all the times 
I tried so hard to leave her
She will turn to me and start to cry
And she promises the earth to me 
And I believe her
After all this time I don't know why

Ah girl 
Girl girl

She's the kind of girl who puts you down
When friends are there you feel a fool
When you say she's looking good
She acts as if it's understood
She's cool ooh ooh ooh

Ah girl 
Girl girl

Was she told when she was young 
That pain would lead to pleasure
Did she understand it when they said
That a man must break his back 
To earn his day of leisure
Will she still believe it when he's dead

Ah girl 
Girl girl

John Lennon Instagram - I WANT YOU (SHE'S SO HEAVY). 🔵
‘She’s So Heavy’ was about Yoko. When it gets down to it, like she said, when you’re drowning you don’t say, ‘I would be incredibly pleased if someone would have the foresight to notice me drowning and come and help me,’ you just scream. And I just sang ‘I want you, I want you so bad, she’s so heavy,’ like that. It is pretty heavy. The ending, you know, because we used the Moog synthesizer on it.

I WANT YOU (SHE'S SO HEAVY).
I want you
I want you so bad
I want you
I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

I want you
I want you so bad babe
I want you
I want you so bad 
It's driving me mad
It's driving me

I want you
I want you so bad babe 
I want you
I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

I want you
I want you so bad
I want you
I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me

She's so
Heavy
Heavy

She's so
Heavy
She's so heavy

I want you
I want you so bad
I want you
I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

I want you
You know I want you so bad babe
I want you
You know I want you so bad
It's driving me mad
It's driving me mad

Yeah

She's so

John Lennon Instagram - HAPPY BIRTHDAY JOHN LENNON.
To celebrate John’s birthday today, October 9th, a new Deluxe and Expanded version of Imagine (The Ultimate Collection) is now available to stream and download, including the entire full-length collection of tracks (some previously only available on Blu-Ray) in Hi-Res Stereo and Spatial Audio/Dolby Atmos.

Rather than releasing all 78 tracks in one massive long playlist, each set of mixes (Ultimate, Elements, Evolution, Raw Studio and Out-Takes) is now being released as 5 separate albums, to be listened to and enjoyed in the way they were originally intended, as produced and curated by Yoko Ono Lennon.

We’ll be doing the same with the John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band Ultimate Collection soon, and then releasing a brand new, completely remixed Mind Games (The Ultimate Collection) in the summer of 2024, featuring an incredible six albums worth of material, followed by even more surprises later in the year.

We hope you enjoy Imagine and on John’s birthday make a wish on Yoko’s WISH TREE to send to the IMAGINE PEACE TOWER at wishtreeforyoko.com.

Join us to watch IMAGINE PEACE TOWER @imaginepeacetower lighting up in Iceland today at imaginepeacetower.com.

love, Yoko and Sean.

John Lennon Instagram - HEY JUDE.
'Hey Jude' is Paul's. It's one of his masterpieces. He said it was written about Julian, my child. He knew I was splitting with Cyn and leaving Julian then. He was driving to visit me or Julian. I think it was just to see Julian to say 'hi' to him, because he'd been like an uncle, you know, he was always good with kids. And he came up with 'Hey Jude'. 

But I always heard it as a song to me. If you think about it, Yoko's just come into the picture, he's saying 'Hey Jude / Hey John'. I mean, so I'm sounding like one of those fans that's writing things into it. But you can hear it as a song to me. Although it's also a song about him and Franny Schwartz at the time, too. 

But you hear the lines 'on your shoulder' and all those things I always took personally because I was the one with a chip on my shoulder. And 'go out and get her' and forget everything else. So subconsciously I take it that he was saying, 'go ahead'. On a conscious level he didn't want me to go ahead. Subconsciously the angel in him was saying, 'bless you.' The devil in him didn't like it at all because he didn't want to lose his partner. 

Hey Jude don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

Hey Jude don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better

And anytime you feel the pain hey Jude refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder

Hey Jude don't let me down
You have found her now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

So let it out and let it in hey Jude begin
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that it's just you
Hey Jude, you'll do
The movement you need is on your shoulder

Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her under your skin
Then you'll begin to make it better
Better better better better better oh

Na na na na na na na, na na na na
Hey Jude

John Lennon Instagram - A DAY IN THE LIFE. 🔵
It was a good piece of work between Paul and I. I had the 'I read the news today' – all that bit. And it turned him on, you know. Because now and then we really turn each other on with a bit of a song. 

It just sort of happened beautifully. And we arranged it and rehearsed it – which we don’t often do – the afternoon before, so we all knew what we were playing. And we just all got into it. And it was a real groove, you know, the whole scene, on that one.

It had two stories. One was (Tara Brown) the Guinness child that killed himself in a car. That was the main headline story. And on the next page there were about four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire.

It was (written) in Kenwood, the house in the suburbs. I'm on the piano and the TV is going, over in the corner, flickering. And I was just looking for inspiration and I looked down. Do you know those kinds of sections they have in newspapers of top different things that happened? They had about four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire – a real story that the council had spent real money.

The bulk of the song was written entirely by me. Paul's contribution being that little beautiful little lick going into his song, 'I'd love to turn you on' – that melodic little piece there where it changes – is his contribution. 

It came to a where I needed a middle eight, but, you know, that would have been forcing it. All the rest had come out smooth, flowing, no trouble. And to write a middle eight would have been to write a middle eight. 

We got into 'how about putting a whole different song' which he already had – that had nothing to do with 'A Day in the Life' – which is all about being on the top of the bus in a barber chair. He sang that (middle) bit. He had that one little lick floating around in his head. He couldn't use it for anything. He stuck it on. 

And putting those two together was a pre­cursor to the Abbey Road (medley) style, later on.

Hey Jude don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

Hey Jude don't be afraid
You were made to go out and get her
The minute you let her under your skin
Then you begin to make it better

And anytime you feel the pain hey Jude refrain
Don't carry the world upon your shoulders
For well you know that it's a fool who plays it cool
By making his world a little colder

Hey Jude don't let me down
You have found her now go and get her
Remember to let her into your heart
Then you can start to make it better

So let it out and let it in hey Jude begin
You're waiting for someone to perform with
And don't you know that it's just you
Hey Jude, you'll do
The movement you need is on your shoulder

Hey Jude, don't make it bad
Take a sad song and make it better
Remember to let her under your skin
Then you'll begin to make it better
Better better better better better oh

Na na na na na na na, na na na na

Hey Jude don’t make it bad Take a sad song and make it better Remember to let her into your heart Then you can start to make it better Hey Jude don’t be afraid You were made to go out and get her The minute you let her under your skin Then you begin to make it better And anytime you feel the pain hey Jude refrain Don’t carry the world upon your shoulders For well you know that it’s a fool who plays it cool By making his world a little colder Hey Jude don’t let me down You have found her now go and get her Remember to let her into your heart Then you can start to make it better So let it out and let it in hey Jude begin You’re waiting for someone to perform with And don’t you know that it’s just you Hey Jude, you’ll do The movement you need is on your shoulder Hey Jude, don’t make it bad Take a sad song and make it better Remember to let her under your skin Then you’ll begin to make it better Better better better better better oh Na na na na na na na, na na na na Hey Jude

John Lennon - 57K Likes - A DAY IN THE LIFE. 🔵
It was a good piece of work between Paul and I. I had the 'I read the news today' – all that bit. And it turned him on, you know. Because now and then we really turn each other on with a bit of a song. 

It just sort of happened beautifully. And we arranged it and rehearsed it – which we don’t often do – the afternoon before, so we all knew what we were playing. And we just all got into it. And it was a real groove, you know, the whole scene, on that one.

It had two stories. One was (Tara Brown) the Guinness child that killed himself in a car. That was the main headline story. And on the next page there were about four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire.

It was (written) in Kenwood, the house in the suburbs. I'm on the piano and the TV is going, over in the corner, flickering. And I was just looking for inspiration and I looked down. Do you know those kinds of sections they have in newspapers of top different things that happened? They had about four thousand holes in Blackburn, Lancashire – a real story that the council had spent real money.

The bulk of the song was written entirely by me. Paul's contribution being that little beautiful little lick going into his song, 'I'd love to turn you on' – that melodic little piece there where it changes – is his contribution. 

It came to a where I needed a middle eight, but, you know, that would have been forcing it. All the rest had come out smooth, flowing, no trouble. And to write a middle eight would have been to write a middle eight. 

We got into 'how about putting a whole different song' which he already had – that had nothing to do with 'A Day in the Life' – which is all about being on the top of the bus in a barber chair. He sang that (middle) bit. He had that one little lick floating around in his head. He couldn't use it for anything. He stuck it on. 

And putting those two together was a pre­cursor to the Abbey Road (medley) style, later on.
