You can thank his good mother, Cynthia for the person Julian is today. It's not from his Father, John. He was not very good to Juilian.. And Paul wrote Hey Jude " for Juilan after his parents broke up. I think Paul felt for Julian.

[@OneEyedKeys]

How Julian can be so calm with himself when most of the questions people ask him are not about him, but of his errant father, or the other Beatles, is astonishing. He somehow found a way to navigate his own life, be his own self, and just 'let the rest go'. Absolutely amazing. If I ever met him I would love to just talk to him about him, and make a point to not bring his father or any Beatles into the conversation whatsoever. He is interesting enough.

[@Hy-Brasil]

when you think about it, they really were a flash in the pan. lasting only seven years and yet they still attract so much admiration (even infatuation). sure, they had some good songs. I bought a few of their albums when i was a kid. but.... i don't understand the obsession.... but then i don't understand the elvis hysteria either. and i agree with you, how utterly out of touch these people are to interview someone who was ...basically abandoned by his father... just to ask these dumb questions about a tiny fraction of his life, that he was not really even part of. I know he tried to have his own musical career but he could never escape that shadow. He may have been better off to simply change his name.

[@OneEyedKeys]

@@Hy-Brasil I completely agree with all your points. All the best to you!

[@tonypalombinijr2946]

It’s about him being a down to earth guy who is comfortable in his own skin. He knows why people want to speak with him and he gets it. I’ve heard that was a major issue for Paul’s ex wife Heather Mills. She wanted to be the center of attention and that’s never going to happen when your husband is Paul McCartney. Good for Julian.

If they feel like they're living in your shadow or they are eclipsed by your talent or intellect or any other attribute they will not stay around very long. I was dating a beautiful blonde & she out of the blue just upped & said 'I'm always going to be in your shadow' which astonished me because we couldn't go to dinner without 10 people telling her how attractive she was. Yet, she felt that way about our relationship. It was very bizarre to me. I suppose thats just one reason I find women to be quite annoying.

But then, later on, he did not want to change things. And Julian, he managed not only to survive, but also to, at least now, keep his sanity. I don't know what he is doing with his life now, but I hope he has found peace and happiness.

I'd take any stories that Paul tells about John with a huge pinch of salt for 2 reasons...1) He's now 81 and so his memories might be a little inaccurate, 2) He has been known to distort the truth and exaggerate somewhat. Like in the song Hi Hi Hi, he says he is singing polygon when everyone knows it's body gun.

John was so famous that everyone still wants to see and interview the son to get a little info about the father. Has to be a crazy experience that probably feels a little claustrophobic. You would think Bill would get this but it doesn’t seem like he does. Julian has probably memorized the way people respond to him over the years. And it’s probably difficult to always remain so positive about everything regardless of the life he was given because of the fame of his dad. It always feels like the interviewers, (not just Bill) just want to get beyond Julian and get to John. That has to be frustrating.

Julian looks so much like John, it's uncanny. Despite being abandoned by John, he's turned out to be a really decent, down to earth guy.

[@BberryHill1223]

Julian could hear those stories from Paul and write a book about his father. I’m sure there’d be a lot of people interested in reading that book

[@362chop]

One of the good one's, Julian.

[@a5dr3]

I’ve met Julian a few times he’s extremely nice.

[@Ilovemusic793]

I saw Paul in the balcony section of Carnegie hall at a keith jarrett concert. Paul could have bought the whole place i was in shock

[@parsahasselhoff7986]

Despite both of them having different accents from John, you can recognize his voice in both Julian and Sean. Probably a banal fact but with the Lennon voice being such a recognizable brand it fascinates me.

[@CB-xr1eg]

Not a "banal" fact. Mpore like an "anal" fact.

[@ErinH-430]

Saw Paul in concert in 2022. He is still an amazing performer.

[@john-x7t6w]

i see so much of John in Julian😔

[@TobychaserTobychaser]

This is the ONLY time I could listen to Bill.

[@R2D2fhjks]

I think he means that they are close, but not frecuent. Like an old friend kinda of a thing

[@JamieBuckingham369]

Great choice to have Julian - such a genuinely good guy!

[@eliv.7062]

Hey Julian, do not wait longer for those stories Uncle Paul keeps for you if you really care. It could be healing for both and a gift you give to each other. ❤

[@mw9537]

I love ❤️ this man. Sending love to you ❤️ Julian

[@Katsem]

Paul, I hope you see this. Set up some time with Julian and tell him the stories!

[@fobbitoperator3620]

His tune "too late for goodbyes" was not only an excellent tune, but he looked & sounded so much like his pa. Even in this convo his mannerisms, tone & his looks are quite reminiscent to his pa. He seems humble, q genuinely good chap.

[@frauleinmona]

"Valotte" was really beautiful though.

[@alrivers2297]

Love those songs of his and also Stick Around and Saltwater

Which is nothing like John. He abandoned Julian and had been abusive to Cynthia. Not a good man by any metric.

I always thought it would be cool if Julian, Paul and Ringo would record some songs together

[@CB-xr1eg]

and Dhani Harrison, he's a good guitarist and singer.

[@SathaphoneOuanesisouk]

Thank you so very much for sharing.

[@coryserratore5951]

"Uncle Paul." That's how I think of all four of them, too. They've played much of a role in my life, even from afar.

[@opex9]

Hope Paul and Julian connect at some point. It would probably be healing them. All the best. Amazing people

[@nsnoesuarez]

Wish Paul and Julian make a song together before time runs out.

Very cool idea.

Hey Jude. GOD bless you with all the best in life!✌️

His Dad wrote songs about Love, but really didn’t show Love to his own son. That’s so sad.❤️

[@094340]

Give it a rest already.

[@salterrae2525]

Unfortunately John had dysfunctional biological parents. This highly sensitive artist was deeply affected by his childhood experiences. This defined his character. Julian is lucky to have a nurturing good mother. His attitude and personality is better than his father.

I like him he seems to be a good soul

[@jcraigwilliams70]

I saw a Tweet or maybe a Facebook post from Julian some time back with a picture of Paul and the caption "look who I found at the airport. Uncle Paul!" I wonder if it was the same day. It was the first time I saw him refer to Paul as "Uncle" and I found it strangely touching. Now I'm sad to hear that they aren't really that close.

[@EnergeticRhythm]

Julian's music he created in the 80s is really really good

[@Johnnied4life]

Julian is a very very sweet man. Had the pleasure of sitting in a session while he worked on “Someday”. It blew my mind.

[@TheRetroManRandySavage]

Julian was such a great artist in his own right. Too late for goodbyes and stick around are fantastic songs. Stick around had a great music video too. It's very 80s lol. Should've been music video of the year, except for it came out at a similar time to peter gabriel's sledge hammer, if memory serves me correctly.🤔

[@gettinhungrig8806]

He's done much better songs than 'Too Late For Goodbyes'. That was his crappy first single. It's about time this guy got married. We need more Beatle offspring...or descendants.

[@Visualizemyfuture]

he is

@@gettinhungrig8806 Isn't it interesting that most of the sons never got married or had children?

What about " Valotte"? That was beautiful!

[@jsullivan2112]

What a weird fucking thing to say to a guy. "I'm not going to compare you to your father by absolutely comparing you to your father. Oh and by the way you turned out alright!"

[@hilariousname6826]

He kept wanting to talk trash about John, and then - just barely - stopping himself.

Julian Lennon seems like a great person.

I met Julian Lennon in 1984. He was performing in a small club and I worked my way up to the stage. The was no barriers. He was so nice and so genuine and gave a terrific show besides!

Julian and Paul. PLEASE get together sooner, rather than later. Get those stories down. We are NOT promised tomorrow. PLEASE, DO IT! 🙏

[@gallery7596]

A lot of people do that thing where they say they're gonna get together soon and they may actually mean it at the time . . . but it just never happens. Sad really.
