View Full Version : John Lennon Ian 10-09-2002, 03:33 PM Today would have been his 62 birthday. He was a musical genius, he was the founder of the beatles, and in my opinion the most gifted songwriter of the three (sorry ringo), he was also a great solo artist. May his memory live on forever!

It's his birthday too. :birthday: Crimson and Clover 10-09-2002, 04:50 PM John did have the best lyrics of the three.

It's hard to believe that the great, fabulous Beatles are that old! I think I will go and hide! They WILL live forever! Happy birthday John! RIP:( laceyinthesky 10-10-2002, 05:32 PM I think that Mark David Chapman should be released from prison. Before everyone starts disagreeing with me, hear me out. In prison he's basically kept by himself and nobody bothers him... and you know that if he does get out he's more than likely going to get his ass beat several times along with being tormented by just about everyone. I think the latter would be more punishment than keeping him in prison. Janice 10-10-2002, 05:53 PM Originally posted by laceyinthesky I think that Mark David Chapman should be released from prison.

I think the latter would be more punishment than keeping him in prison. I don't think he deserves his freedom. If he were released, he could live in anonymity and start his life over. It's been over 20 years, and he could easily disquise his appearance. Also, who's to say the deranged piece of crap wouldn't take the life of another innocent person? Life in prison for Mark David Chapman suits me just fine. Anything less insults the memory of John Lennon.

Now that idea I like! :lol: Perhaps he's gotten his share of ass whoppings from a few inmates who were also Lennon fans. Kitt 10-11-2002, 04:44 PM IN two more years this song will be the wonder of us alll once again. Wish we could have gotten the answer to his question -- "Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four"? When I'm Sixty-Four (John Lennon, Paul McCartney) Lead Vocal: Paul McCartney When I get older losing my hair Many years from now Will you still be sending me a valentine Birthday greetings bottle of wine If I'd been out till quarter to three Would you lock the door Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four You'll be older too And if you say the word I could stay with you I could be handy, mending a fuse When your lights have gone You can knit a sweater by the fireside Sunday mornings go for a ride Doing the garden, digging the weeds Who could ask for more Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four Every summer we can rent a cottage In the Isle of Wight, if it's not too dear We shall scrimp and save Grandchildren on your knee Vera Chuck & Dave Send me a postcard, drop me a line Stating point of view Indicate precisely what you mean to say Yours sincerely, wasting away Give me your answer, fill in a form Mine for evermore Will you still need me, will you still feed me When I'm sixty-four |
