The death of a loved one is a hollowing experience.
After 40 years, Sean, Julian and I still miss him.

Woman is the ni**er of the world
Yes, she is
If you don't believe me, take a look at the one you're with
Woman is the slave of the slaves
Ah, yeah, better scream about it

Facts on facts on facts.

When I try to explain to my friends/relatives that John Lennon was problematic as fuck and not the legendary peaceful icon the media think he was, I get dragged to hell... “how dare you, he’s a music legend, an icon, he revolutionised music, shameful of you to put this man down...” Or “ok but he’s such a talented musician...”

I’ll ask Santa new friends... 😔

Revolutionised music by calling all women ni**ers? Oh ok!

Who cares if Michael Jackson raped children? He made music I like!

The worst thing about this day is it made him a martyr to hipster douchebags

I've always found him and The Beatles overrated. So much of it is just Boomer nostalgia for when they were young.

I like The Beatles but I prefer almost every single cover in the Across the Universe movies to the originals tbh

i normally don't like beatles covers but i love all the songs in across the universe. "i've just seen a face" is probably my favorite.

That one is so good. It's so hard for me to choose a fave but if I had to, probably "Happiness Is a Warm Gun"
