Imagine
These are the lyrics to John Lennon's song
It's easy if you try,
No hell below us,
Above us only sky,
Imagine all the people
living for today...
Imagine there's no countries,
It isnt hard to do,
Nothing to kill or die for,
No religion too,
Imagine all the people
living life in peace...
Imagine no possesions,
I wonder if you can,
No need for greed or hunger,
A brotherhood of man,
Imagine all the people
Sharing all the world...
You may say Im a dreamer,
but Im not the only one,
I hope some day you'll join us,
And the world will live as one.

The U.S. vs. John Lennon
Documentary, Politics/Religion and War
The story traces John Lennon's life from the period 1966 to 1976, where Lennon transforms into an antiwar activist, one in constant conflict with the U.S. government and its views."The mild fascination of The U.S. vs. John Lennon is that it puts Lennon together as a political animal, examining how his iconoclastic wit and anger turned into conceptual protest when he fused it with the avant-garde theatrics of Yoko Ono." ~~ Owen Gleiberman
Running Time: 1 hr. 39 min.
Release Date: September 15th, 2006 (limited)
MPAA Rating: PG-13 for some strong language, violent images and drug references.

FBI releases final John Lennon files
Wed Dec 20, 4:24 PM ET
The 10 pages contain new details about Lennon's ties to leftist and anti-war groups in London in the early 1970s, but nothing indicating government officials considered the former Beatle a serious threat, historian Jon Wiener told the Los Angeles Times in Wednesday's editions.
"Today, we can see that the national security claims that the FBI has been making for 25 years were absurd from the beginning."
Wiener first requested the documents in 1981, several months after he decided to write a book about Lennon following the singer's murder.
The previously released files showed that the FBI closely monitored Lennon from 1971 to 1972.

Beatles - Shakespeare Skit
Check out the Beatles performing a Shakespearean skit on a 1964 British television program. The audience seemed to be having as much fun as the Fab Four were! Where else can you see John dressed up as a woman, playing Paul's love interest? Hilarious! Don't miss it!
