MESSAGE FROM YOKO ONO

Dear Friends,
On October 9th 2013, I will relight IMAGINE PEACE TOWER
in Iceland in memory of my late husband John Lennon.

Please ask all your friends to join us by Tweeting wishes
to IMAGINE PEACE TOWER (@IPTower), which you can do right
here at IMAGINEPEACETOWER.com (the Tweet box is top right).

You can also send wishes by post, email & Facebook.
Tell all your friends.
Spread the word!

I hope the IMAGINE PEACE TOWER will give light to the
strong wishes of World Peace from all corners of the planet
and give encouragement, inspiration and a sense of solidarity
in a world now filled with fear and confusion.

Let us come together to realise a peaceful world.

Love is our energy.
Wisdom is our power.
It’s time to shed light to all corners of the world.
Enjoy the trip we make together.

love,


Yoko Ono Lennon

    Hmmmm... but then the Beatles would have probably carried on, and on and become like the Rolling Quo! I Iove the Stones and Quo but they both demonstrate that however creative you are, quailty work is finite.

    Did the Beatles do any crap? I can't think of any.

    I know this is tantamount to blasphemy, but I'm not a huge Beatles fan (not to the extent of Robert Elms, who actively hates The Beatles), but, at a push, I would choose Revolver and Let It Be as my favourites.

    I think if you were a teenager in the sixties, as i was. The Beatles really appealed. They were clean cut nice lads (at the time) who done good and made largely happy simple love songs. Of course by 1967 Sgt Pepper hit the turntable and what a revolution it was.
    As i grew older, whilst still being a fan of the Beatles. The Kinks moved to No1 in my affections, mainly because of the quality and Englishness of Ray Davies' writing.
  • Is it sacrilege to suggest the Beatles were over-rated?

    Yes

    Might be sacrilege, but that doesn't stop it being true.

    Or forget twitter and faceache and just be more tolerant of your fellow man.

    NB. Smarmy Tweets do not make a decent human being.

    Better still AUN mix the next Lemsip in with the Grey Goose. Had the 'man flu' myself at the weekend, went as quick as it came within 48 hours :-)

    Good shout.

  • I wouldn't usually condone the mixing of pharmaceuticals and alcohol RC but I might give it a go, just want a decent sleep.

    Gotta disagree with you there. A fantastic song, and I believe that McCartney was only mid to late teens when he wrote it.

    Love it too, and it's getting closer, just 14 years to go.
