John Lennon's would-be 65th birthday!

Imagine all possessions...
It isn't hard to do.

[Sgt. Pepper]

John was killed 5 years before I was even born, but I feel like I know him because I identify so well with his lyrics and his character, as shown through old videos and such, is still so alive to me. With the help of John, the Beatles became one of the few bands that can remain relevant and inspirational for generations to come. I mean... do you know anybody who doesn't have at least one Beatles song that they absolutely LOVE?

Listening to the Beatles has influenced the person I am and the person I want to be. Pretty good for a band that broke up 15 years before I was born.
