Imagine - John Lennon (cover) by Hope Winter

John Lennon - Imagine is one of my stepdad's favourite songs. In my opinion, just as relevant now as it was when it was written (definition of timeless, beautiful and present lyrics). Hope you enjoy and see you next week!x x x

31 years later this song still holds true. More so today.

[@hopemusicuk]

Couldn't agree more. x

[@DMSJagXK]

It was written in 1970

[@raktimrajdas]

John Lennon must be so proud. 🖤

[@TheOriginalItchyman]

I'm Native Canadian, and I dream of the day this song wishes for. This is the most touching cover of the song I've ever heard.

[@MrDaryca]

Pure perfection! Not a single cringe-moment. Emotional singing, but without overdoing, no ego, full devotion to the song.

[@FransJSuper]

Dear Hope Winter, this rendition of yours is exactly right. I have been playing it dozens of times the past few months, because these words of John Lennon are so very true and I hope as many as possible will join us, dreamers. You sing it so beautifully and it really touches my heart.

[@dids600623]

how you switch off during your performance and completely give into it is the sign of truly great talent. Love it.

[@kieranmiller6985]

I'm going through a really rough patch of my life at the moment and I was struggling to keep strength and the will to live, but your voice is driving me through it Hope. It is the most beautiful thing ever. Thankyou for saving me and restoring my faith Hope

[@elissulaj4956]

When I hear the sound of the waves, it is as if I hear the piano keys and the cool winds coming from miles away, soothe my wounds and tonight. And when I hear you sing heaven and hell, I see the waves of each other fight and the waves ring.

[@lantoeric199]

[@salvadorsaffie1907]

En donde estabas que no te había escuchado. Maravillosa voz para una maravillosa canción.

[@abbydorsch3625]

I’m singing this for voice, and you are my role model for this song!

[@personstuff3049]

I really like how well you did this. I often dislike covers of this song because they tend to over embellish it so much, your subtlety and personal style are such a great fit for this. Bravo.

[@MusiX-vq7vn]

I love this song and your cover of it :)

[@rodgerspillsthebeans]

Hope, this is just wonderful, perfect pitch. and no puffs even without a pop filter. amazing. I would sound like a dragon? I have tried for years to do this song and it is NOT easy. some covers of this song have over 2 million hits. It is a timeless classic. it can easily turn into an acopella, but you have not. do you like Joan Baez version? when we did this song live it was always a smash, even in a smoke filled barroom.

[@pennypapadimas6146]

i really like the way you spell 's' , unique! Congrats for ur covers

[@lenorasnart8680]

So beautiful

[@adampelik8985]

I live in America and was not happy with the election results. This is a beautiful song and I love your cover. It helps me not bash ANYONE no matter what their politics are. 😊

[@christopherschissler1675]

Your voice and personality rend beautifully in black and white. Enjoyed the Katie Perry cover of 'The Words'. Love the moody and sincere expression in your voice!

[@RS-be7iy]

I like your voice a lot. I listened to "Time to Say Goodbye," too. Nice. You modulate so nicely. Really lovely work.

[@clint4709]

OMG you voice brings so much joy ❤️

[@AllensTrains]

A more sensitive interpretation of this John Lennon classic than some of the others who can't manage to avoid shouting and hollering at various points in the song!

[@NewSoul1985]

Thats it. And the newest thing is to squeeze the vocals out, they honour it in many casting shows. I find this so terrible. I am glad for every song which isn’t sung in this squeezing style.
