John Lennon
was an amazing musician and songwriter. Imagine, may be the most famous work
outside of the Beatles. I love how the song asks the hypothetical question:
what would the world would be like if we just forgot everything and lived every day for each other? The sad and ironic thing is that John Lennon protested
for peace, and yet he was murdered by a crazed fan.
The creator
of this video really captured the scenes that Lennon was trying to describe. I
feel that after listening to the song, which I have heard many times, with the
pictures gave me new insight to what it was really about. My favorite part of
the video was at the very end when Lennon sings, “And the world will live as
one.” The picture that appears is the earth with people, all of different
races, linking arms.
