Julian Lennon on Arsineo Hall

ENOUGH ABOUT HIM LOOKING AND SOUNDING LIKE JOHN, I DON'T THINK HE GETS THE POINT.
Don't forget to check out Julian's My Space!
Interview only, Jules is at his charming best chasing lint (perhaps not all white feathers are big?) and managing a laugh or two, Arsineo tells a Pete Best joke that bombs so bad even the home audience hurts.

[@NewMJ]

He has John's sense of humor but he has Cynthia's sweetness.

[@steenielovestheeighties7739]

He is absolutely adorable.

[@4FabBEATLES]

Julian is a true inspiration- he has overcome so many things and through it all remained down to earth and forgiving

[@audiotrauma]

he's so real, nothing pretentious or fake, julians great!

[@LittleCircuitBreaker]

When he smiles I can see his mom.

[@kitkat43255]

he's so charming :)

[@rope2hocks]

I love Jules, too. You just want to give him a hug.... Keep rockin Jules..we want more!

[@NewMJ]

John said if he died before Julian he would send proof of the afterlife and that he was still watching over him by floating a white feather across the room.

[@lillibit57]

Jules is amazing, and seems like such a sweet person. Why even compare him to John? He's a great talent in his own right!

[@McCartnee]

Ecellent. Excellent. Excellent footage. Always great to see the son of Lennon.

[@sharonostrovmusicexpress]

Julian is a very handsome man. Nice vid. Thanks for posting. ~S

[@mrbaird]

He looks like John, but has his own look as well. Good lookin' guy. I like his music too! Thanks for posting. Marilyn

[@texaspete66]

more handsome than his old man. such a sweet sympathetic face

[@SeattleBlythe]

Very impressive interview. He was in his twenties I think when this was done. Great insight.

[@JulyN78]

I took a diferent path all my life. When I was a little girl I saw a Disney special with Julian and just fell in love with him... I didn't know who his pather was... Til my dad showed me... After growing up I realised that Is not a advantage being the son of someone like John. People never gave the attention Julian deserved as a great artist, because of his last name... Anyways, I still him and I'm glad I found another fans... Kisses from JulyN

[@bre4peace]

his eyes are all john

[@jessi1971]

Hes so cute!!!!

[@annm1969]

He's got a lot more confident over the years in how he speaks and carries himself. There are some other videos posted, that were years after this and you can see the difference. He's had a tough go of it with people comparing him to his Dad and people pitting him against his brother.

[@JulianLennon1]

"that doesn't give the generation I am growing up a chance to get in there..." Great point Julian...right on...

[@superfob54]

He's very charismatic

[@herrMaria]

julian seems cool. i'd like to meet him. :3

[@dannyg120]

i miss arsenio. He had a great show.

[@Alexandria815]

When he goes cross-eyed at 2:20 blowing the piece of lint floating in the air in front of him:P

[@NewMJ]

Jules is working on a new album, check out his My Space, the album after Mr Jordan was Help Yourself which has Saltwater and some lovely ballads, then there's the fabulous Photograph Smile.

[@deb310red]

Julian seems like such a sweet guy.

[@ericelectric]

He is happier than Sean so it seems...

[@Tamijka]

he is cute :-) seems a very nice and clever guy..

[@clonedkeifer]

Arsenio, do your research right: It was originally Hey Jules,

[@LoveShiaGDSN]

I love Jules :) thanks for posting this.

[@MarijeK]

I'd never heard of Arsenio, but this is great! What a nice guy, and Julian too of course.

[@ladyretro]

If you pause it at 2.21 - Julian looks quite scared by that "ball of lint".... John said he'd send him a white feather to let him know he was with him :)

[@TIWICI]

That was awesome!! Thanks so much for posting it! Is there any performance footage from this show? He mentioned being nervous before... Thought he handled the questions fielded to him fantastically-- including the question about "groupies"! He looked great too-- could NOT take my eyes off him..but then I never can when watching anything Julian! LOL

[@NewMJ]

Jules grew up in England, part of his childhood was in the Liverpool area and he has contact with the Stanley side of John's family. Check Lennon(dot)net for more info

[@TINML]

John never worked in the studio with Julian other than the performance of "Ya Ya" from 1974's "Walls & Bridges".

[@crpsaiyan]

You think he was nervous here, you should've seen him when he went on tour for his Valotte album. Although he put on a great show, it was so obvious that he was really nervous, if not downright terrified.

[@dshishod]

jude was apparently his nickname, ur right he shouldn't have to live in his dads shadow all his life it's ashame

[@inspire734]

Remember that Julian had Cynthia for a mother & John had Julia. John was rejected by his mother & father, but Julian has always had a good mother as Cynthia behind him giving him good morals, reading about Julia, she didn't appear to have any good morals. John always had that rejection to deal with.

[@NewMJ]

Pete was the drummer in the German and Cavern days, George Martin wanted a session drummer for the first album and so on. For several reasons they went with Ringo.

[@oommggzz]

he has a very similar personality to his father, which is funny since they didnt spend a lot of time together.

[@annm1969]

He lived as a teenager in Wales but was born in Liverpool.

[@NewMJ]

Julian was born in 1963, his mother is Cynthia, John's college sweetheart and first wife. They divorced in 1968. Sean was born in 1975 to John and Yoko.

[@Bopalena]

Hard to believe that he's now 5 years older than his father when that piece of shit shot him. Time marches on.

[@ladyretro]

That's what I mean - it seems to appear out of nowhere. It's a comforting thought to believe John is with him.

[@Babeatle]

Dear NewMJ, Yes, Jules has become one EXCELLENT Artist. I love Saltwater! :) He's one of my buddies on my space...ya know, just gotta keep up with the youngin' ;)! Peace, Love and Understanding!

[@MsAnnestube]

what a great musician, singer.........and there's nothing rwong with his genes!!

[@RollingOrmond]

Arsenio a surprisingly sensitive interviewer (his Pete Best reference didn't bomb THAT bad).

[@NewMJ]

Times were different then, and Ringo was said to be the best drummer in Liverpool. Pete didn't hang out with John, Paul, and George outside of the band. He's done some books and a special on PBS and doesn't seem bitter at all.

[@Babeatle]

I just typed one out. Seems it didn't take. Oh well...just a jot to say I love to see this man grow...and grow. Have you heard or seen him "since" Arsinio? WOW! Yes, it is true: "The Apple Doesn't Fall Far From The Tree.". Peace, Love and Understanding.

[@NewMJ]

Actually he goes by Jules but Jude works better rythmicly and St Jude is the patron saint of lost causes.

[@aaron3009]

The Pete Best comment was halarious

[@NewMJ]

I have the whole thing, but it's 10 minutes per segment. Thought the interview was the better half of the bit to put up.

[@NewMJ]

They are talking again and Julian hung out with Sean on his last tour of Europe.

[@NewMJ]

His father.

[@annm1969]

That is so horrible to say (about slapping the feather) but funny as hell!! But on a serious note, if I can stop laughing, the feather thing was brought up in the "Whaledreamers" movie and he was presented a white feather from Tribal Elders. These are folks who wouldn't know a thing about the whole feather thing. It's very interesting.

[@NewMJ]

Who's to say it isn't a white feather? Where did the lint come from in the first place?

[@adammakessongs]

man, this guy didn't get ANY confidence from his father. poor guy, i always feel bad

[@bickie22]

haahha- I was actually one of the people who laughed at the stupid Pete Best joke

[@Musicfan8363]

Julian should not try so hard to not sound like his Dad. It's in his genes and it is natural, so he should sing and screw the credits. After he is dead and gone, is sadly when they will appreciate him being here.

[@marieds185]

does anybody know what year this was?

[@mallitch]

Julian is very up to the tune and he does well. Cos I dislike Arsenio I'd say he's withdrawn a bit, and that's the best thing he could do.

[@titanium9000]

where would a feather come from?

[@NewMJ]

But what if he sounded like Ringo? :P

[@NewMJ]

At least Arsineo didn't say Stu...

[@NewMJ]

1989

[@ThrashingThrasher]

it's been it's been it's been a lot easier these days 1:07

[@bickie22]

yeah- that wouldnt have been funny though...just ridiculous -considering what happened to him
