[McLennon] Arrival Of Time

[@booperpotpie9634]

It's rough thinking John has now been away from us for a longer time than he was here. What an iconic voice and wit he had. A loss to us all but the melody of his life lives on forever in the legacy he left. This was a very moving video. I've just found out that I'm going to be a grandmother. This video is a lovely, and reminds me of the beauty in this journey. Thank you for this tribute.

[@curiouser2858]

Thank you very much for your lovely and poignant comment, and congratulations on becoming a grandmother! I agree, it's hard to think that John has been gone more years than he was alive, that he didn't get to grow old, and see the world change... it's heartening though that we can still revel in his music, and how it continues to delight and inspire people.

@@curiouser2858 Thank you for the well wishes. I think Lennon (& MacLen publishings) will be thought of in the future as this era's Mozart or Beethoven as his contribution and innovation in the music industry really lit the way for the modern rock that followed. A man will never be forgot as long as his name continues to be spoken, so Lennon did achieve immortality in some sense. I think he'd be very chuffed about that!

[@curiouser2858]

@@booperpotpie9634 I agree! And to think that in one interview he was asked how he thought people would remember him as, and he replied that he didn't care if he would be remembered or not, which is even more heartbreaking given what followed. But yes, I also think he'd be delighted and get a kick from people not only acknowledging his musical brilliance but also how after all these years we are still interested in the Beatles' lives and their adventures in the 60s !

[@booperpotpie9634]

@@curiouser2858 Lennon likely made that statement as a result of being fed up with Beatlemania and being a Beatle. The 60's & 70's were mad times; things were changing rapidly. Imagine not being able to leave your home without someone watching, or going to a pub or cinema without being mobbed. I think I'd be naffed off a bit, too. People cannot truly fathom how intrusive it is to be a "celebrity." I recall seeing folks yelling at McCartney getting into his car as he left his wife's funeral and thought this was not the time and place for that. Light a candle for Linda if you must, then leave. Quietly. Absolutely no privacy, ever. It must be maddening, to say the least.

[@curiouser2858]

@@booperpotpie9634 Yes, their lives were singular for a lot of things and their massive fame and how it rose to unfathomable levels, was one of them. Nothing has since come close to 60s Beatlemania (thankfully, because it was indeed insane).

1:40 - 1:59 is a genuine clip of Paul Crying hearing John's song Beautiful Boy, the best of friends...

[@kathyhollenbach7413]

@PsychoticXombie I always thought that was about his son, Sean. The lyrics fit. He's singing about a child.

Amazing! Awsome! Wonderful! Beautiful images...Beautiful background music... This the first time I saw this vídeo but it basically showed what I had thought when I had the idea of writing a surrealistic book or and script for a film about The Beatles,specially about The Lennon Family. I could name it entitle it "LET'S GO BACKWARS".🌷🌺💖💞💝

[@curiouser2858]

Thank you very much, I appreciate the kind words! :)

[@pocopico7409]

More pictures must’ve been taken of those 4 guys than just about anybody in history. But why did it just cut off like that at the end?

[@josettekey3533]

I wondered about that myself

[@loosilu]

BEcuase this is more or less a backwards timeline. The last photo is the day they met.

[@kathyhollenbach7413]

@@loosilu oh, thank you; that makes sense.

[@thaiscovo9408]

It closes with the panflet of the quarrymen show, in the Churchill. That was the day, 6th July, in 1957, the day the bove met. 💘🥀

I watched the entire video waiting for the "pure creative genius" part. I must have missed it. All I saw were clips set to music. Please define genius?

[@peggylynore6129]

Well that was different.

Just don't conflate Billy with Paul

[@johnk.4018]

They can't see....

[@AaronEddieHYo]

@@johnk.4018 I know, but for some reason, deep down inside, I believe I have a purpose that includes dropping little comments like this. It might be more of a waste than I think it is.

@@AaronEddieHYo I get ya. Nothing wrong with trying...

[@terryshatter833]

Don't forget that there were also 2 Lennon's. That's.much more obvi than the Paul twins in my opinion

too bad they were a masonic band...just like club 33 ..ringo never did any recordings and they did not write all songs by them selves or played on the recordings
