Perfect. Thanks for stopping by and for the compliment Larry!

John and May Pang on this. One of my favorite Lennon songs❤️❤️❤️

Hi Brandon, Great choices. So sadly missed. A true Legend. Keep Rocking 👍 Ronnie SCOTLAND

[@retroreactions....]

Hi again! Glad you like these songs. Forever tragic, always to wonder what more great music would have been created.. Have a beautiful day!

Definitely seems like it is music from the heart and soul. 💙💙🎵🎶🎶🎶

Ahhh… dreamy songs ! Love this songs! Specifically #9 dream ! Thank you for your reactions and sharing good music for good souls 🙌🏻😘🙌🏻

[@ericanderson8886]

Love both of these John solo songs. All four Beatles had great careers after the break up.

[@drmagic60]

Great to have a new artist, especially John Lennon…what a talent! Not familiar with the first song, but I definitely know “#9 Dream”. As like others….I’m familiar with many of his songs, just didn’t have him in my collection. I can’t wait for tomorrow for “Fading Lights”!!

[@retroreactions....]

Yes, a last minute addition, glad I discovered these great songs! Tomorrow is the big day!! My shipment of Kleenex arrived today, just in case........

[@drmagic60]

Gotta share with you….I’m definitely excited about it. Tickets had gone on sale Friday for that Prog show at the Arcada Theater. I got a 9th row seat and also a ticket for a pre-show meet and greet…a first for me!! I’ll get to see Asia’s sound check, an Asia tour shirt, lanyard, Asia autographed poster, and I’ll get to meet Geoff Downes (Asia), Thijs Van Leer (Focus), Martin Turner (formerly Wishbone Ash), and Sonja Kristina (Curved Air). I’m also excited for Uriah Heep and Saxon in just a few weeks.

[@retroreactions....]

Oh WOW, congrats!! That sounds amazing and I can't think of anyone more deserving! And you get to meet multiple legends. I'd be excited just meeting Thijs, after discovering his music. You've put in countless hours and dollars into concert-going over the decades, and you're still reaping new rewarding concert experiences... 😊

My dad's favourite is No.9 Dream and mine is Beautiful boy followed by No.9. Double Fantasy released 9th October, Sean's 5th and John's 40th birthday. Exactly 3 months later and it was all over. Broke my heart then and still does. Best "life" lyric ever? "Life is what happens to you while you're busy making other plans". Word.

[@retroreactions....]

Hello! Great, I'm glad I picked 2 that you love! Yes, one of the most senseless and lasting tragedies, felt around the world. Of course I think about what other future musical works of art the world was robbed of. Really great lyrics in both songs. Enjoy the rest of your day Dawn 🤗

@@retroreactions.... Thanks Brandon, you too. x

[@rhondamcewananderson3968]

Huge fan, still miss him..🌹❤️✨

[@retroreactions....]

Wow, 44 years already. Glad to finally know more of his solo music...💙

[@rhondamcewananderson3968]

Sean is 48. He was born on John's birthday.... wow. ❤️

[@retroreactions....]

Yes, just found out that Sean was born a few weeks before me!

[@rhondamcewananderson3968]

@@retroreactions.... That's cool! BTW, before Alan White joined Yes.... he played with John and Yoko.

Ciao Brandon. Di John Lennon ti consiglio WATCHING THE WHEELS e MIND GAMES ...i miei preferiti 😉😘

[@retroreactions....]

Ciao! OK, quei 2 sono stati aggiunti alla mia lista. È così bello vederti!! 🤗

[@MisterWondrous]

That John Lemmon is going to be something someday, once he learns to settle down and do his homework. He didn't even know his capitals! He thought the capital of Pennsylvania was Philadelphia!!! Have you done "Working Class Hero"? Just John and his guitar and his heart.

[@bigjapi1]

99,9% of the unitestatians (people who was born in Unites States) think that Rio de Janeiro is the capital of Argentina, and even worse... they call their country as "America", that's 10000 worse than that small Lennon mistake

[@retroreactions....]

Ha... No I have never heard WCH. I will add it to my list, thank you...

[@mattleppard1964]

Very good. Yes drummer Alan White played with Lennon a lot before he joined Yes when Bill Bruford left ❤

[@signal12hvac]

since you liked beautiful boy, you may enjoy one called Emily's Song by John Lodge of the Moody Blues which was written for his daughter. great reaction!

[@retroreactions....]

Hello. I have added your vote to my list for Emily's Song. Thanks so much for watching and for the compliment 😊

[@signal12hvac]

[@doplinger1]

It’s sad that John couldn’t seem to express the same kind of sentiments for his first son.

[@ottowedel711]

now that you heard #9 dream, I also like one that somehow reminds me of this one from David Bowie, called "Untitled No. 1", please post it, or hear it... cheers from Costa Rica...

[@79BlackRose]

I didn't listen to the first one as I have never liked it. But #9 Dream is one of his best IMO. I find Lennon's solo work patchy to say the least. There is something intriguing, even haunting about #9 Dream. I find the production somewhat muddy.

[@retroreactions....]

Cool cool. Glad you like the dreamy 2nd song. Very of its time, but intriguing like you said. I forgot, are you a "Fading Lights" fan? 🥇

[@79BlackRose]

@@retroreactions.... Yes! Best song on the album IMO.

[@retroreactions....]

Yipee! I will see ya tomorrow then 😀
