[@adrianbrowne7874]

John Lydon, remains one of the most "inspiring" and "unselfish" individual's that i have ever met!! And may Nora RIP❤

[@Dr.ModNut]

Brilliant.

[@adrianbrowne7874]

@@Dr.ModNut Thankyou very much!!

[@tinamitchell7496]

He remains a magnificent human being. Adore him. Would love to meet him one day.

One of the brightest and most talented badasses to stomp the terra!

[@MWL4466]

You are the best John ! Keep on telling it like it is. The world needs you. Cheers from Canada.

[@lifecycleproject]

Authentic, outrageous, and supremely talented. A genuine National Treasure ! (Staggeringly brilliant album - 'Hawaii' an instant classic.)

[@5150cappie]

The more I see and hear John, the more respect and admiration I feel for him. Also been listening to PIL catalog and the strength of his music and band rocks the sh*t out of mainstream. Love you, John - and blessings for you & family & crew. Mrs. Lydon still has an awesome mate - peace for all.

[@GazBobtalks]

Always good to hear John.

[@PostcardAndAPint]

Excellent interview. I saw PIL last weekend and they were incredible. The Pistols are one of my favourite bands of all times, and I never really got into PIL, but I've seen them twice now and they were amazing both times!!

[@derek5168]

John lydon is one of those people in the music industry who has integrity everyone who has enjoyed his work over the years are sorry for his loss but as usual he is talking about being grateful for the years he had with his wife 🙏

[@RUDI-UK]

A British national treasure. Long may he walk among us

[@polo7155]

Always loved him, he's always been straightforward honest and that is very rare in the music buisiness! R.I.P. Nora and long live John Lydon

sorry to hear of your loss john..from anarchy pretty vacant as a teenager right thru the enthrilling and exciting PIL to your care to nora ..youve proved your a rare gem.

John Lydon is one of my favourite rock stars and singer-songwriters and I am looking forward to seeing him perform in Lisbon next month.

[@Tony-xn7sd]

Bless you John, a true legend, one of Englands finest xxx

[@cpmorgan5000]

To all kids out there with any interest in interviewing people in any capacity: the reason this interviewer was able to elicit such thoughtful and deep answers from a guy who has no problem telling people they suck is he used open-ended questions. The 5Ws is all it takes, and the stories about John creating the music for this album from the sounds he was hearing and lyrics he was signing as he was caring for his dying wife are priceless.

[@barbieblacksheep8440]

RIP Nora, love and regards to John always... Blessed Be !

[@Sarah-gf9ed]

Johnny is one of the most fascinating and authentic rock stars. He speaks a lot of sense and lives in the real world unlike most celebrities! A good man with a big heart. My idol ❤

[@videohits4ever432]

John Lydon is one of those people that can run rings around any interviewer and the media don't like that. This is an intelligent man that cannot be goaded into saying what a producer may want him to say simply for a soundbite. The interviewer wasn't very good but lovely to listen to John. He is himself, what you hear is what you get.

[@stevejenkins5630]

fair to say i don't always agree with him e.g. voting for Trump, ffs! but i'll ALWAYS respect and listen to his views, cos what needs saying needs to be said, obv! TFR!

Was sat opposite John on a train from. Manchester to London the other week he sounds a nice guy was on his best behaviour no spiting or swearing at all .I was star struck a little ,did not bother him left him to read his book

[@Wicked_R]

I've loved this guy since I first heard Anarchy at 15...and I still love him today..guys like this could seriously do better jobs at running countries than the people we vote in...what a man....xx

[@KyZhoül]

He’s just such a lovable chap. Incredibly honest and downright genuine.

[@baronsaturday2103]

Love it!

[@zoolook3264]

He always comes across as genuine and I think that scares a lot of people as they're so used to artists putting up a front / fake character. Was saddened to hear about Nora but it's obvious her presence will be with him forever.

[@stiiimes]

i just listened to the new record last evening and it is brilliant

[@vincerutter1921]

Remember seeing pil live early 80s, at Poole art's center, I was amazed at there sound it was incredible, when they went into religion i was blown away a little too stoned at the time, saying that it's up there with the best live concert ever

[@arricammarques1955]

[@5150cappie]

We're still here and no one gets out alive - but it's not "goodbye" as much as "See you later." Keep living until then.

[@gary5693]

I absolutely love John lydon for his honesty and integrity and his morals you always know where you are with him what you see is what you get. He talks a lot of common sense and he comes across as genuine the love he has for his late wife Nora is so beautiful and he seems a bit lost without his wife and best friend....if it was up to me he would be called sir Johnny lydon God bless him

[@cybertronian2005]

Honestly feels like Lydon is the only person who still cares about that Disney show

[@Smoshy16]

Love John but his bit about the Pistol series was ridiculous. It was based on Steve Jones' recollections. It didn't need Lydon's input at all. Whether he liked it or not is neither here nor there.

[@chad9017]

Don't put yourself in a box. Rock and Punk. Something to think about. But that's probably beyond my skill level even tho I believe it's more important to have something to say (well) than to say anything perfectly.

[@markgreet3543]

And before you say i know a spelling mistakes, but cmon have a bit of heart and soul, its not big to be rude,and obnoxious to people when theres no need.

[@ronny-2112]

You can tell how much Nora meant to John in how many times he talks about her in recent interviews, and how the band and writing this new album is serving as therapy for him to work through his sadness.
