    What would Lennon think about the world today?

    i doubt the 60s were any better than now. we just have an idealized view of them. but there were messed bp things going on then, just like now. politicians were still crooks and there were still horrible people around. i don't think there is any difference between then and now, in that respect at least. and while there still is racism today, would like to think it is not as bad as it was 40 some years ago, that goes for all civil rights. anyways, just my 2c.
    Black Water Park Reviewed by Black Water Park on . What would Lennon think about the world today? hey all, I was just listening to John Lennon's Imagine song. I never cared much for the bubblu pop sound of the Beatles, but Lennon on his own wrote some really beautiful songs. After hearing that song, what do you think Lennon would think about the state of war in Iraq and Afghanistan? Makes me wonder. He felt so strongly about war then, and the war now is televised and visual. Men getting decapitated on video, getting gunned down, shot in the head, blindfolded.....I wrote a Rating: 5

    I think John Lennon would still be as he was then if he was around today. I think if Lennon was around today, things may get ugly as far as media trying to make him look like some kind of psycho so that he wouldn't have too many followers. I think "someone" would try to take him down and ruin his career, reputation, etc. and drive him insane...although he wasn't exactly sane...

    Thats true, but they did have good music at least. Going back in time would all be worth it just to see The Beatles.

    I doubt Lennon would approve, he probably stay in bed for a week to protest.

    i mean its not like things were always perfect until now..but back then it seems like people had hope, that it was cool to care, and protesting war wouldnt get you ridiculed, i mean thats jsut fuckign ridiculous! and i can only imagine the sense of being a part of that time

    i was born in the wrong decade too :P
