Hey i was just wondering which three songs are the best by jonh lennon. I dont know any of his songs and i want to buy a cd with his stuff.
-
in my humble opinion, his three best are
1.Imagine
2.Watching the Wheels
3.Give Peace a Chance
Its hard to narrow it down to three
To buy a CD, i think the best to start with is Imagine.
-
You dontthink the cd lennon legend is good?
-
Oh it sounded like you wanted a studio album. By all means, Lennon Legend is fine as a greatest hits. that gives you the most Lennon music. But of his studio releases I would go with imagine.
-
I agree, you should buy Lennon Legend but if you want to jump directly into the studio releases get Plastic Ono Band and Imagine
-
Thanks guys. Is his music that good can it compare to the beatles?
-
No, dont look to it expecting to get Beatles music. he experimented a lot, but the result is often terrific. But don't try to compare it to the Beatles.
-
Agree Lennon Legend its a greatest hits package.
1. Imagine-Song he's most recognized for
2. Mind Games-Beautiful piano based ballad
3. Watching The Wheels-Another wonderful song with a piano.
-
Maybe I should give Lennon another go?
At first I bought Lennon Legend, then Wonsaponatime, then Double Fantasy, then Milk And Honey.
I've toyed with the idea of getting either Imagine or Plastic Ono Band whats the better album?
-
PLASTIC ONO BAND and IMAGINE are bothe great Lennon albums, but they're very different. PLASTIC ONO BAND is very dark and depressing, where John was trying to exorcise a lot of his own personal demons. IMAGINE is a much more mainstream album, and the one I'd recommend to start out with if you haven't heard either.
-
Get both POB and Imagine because they are both, in my opinion, outstanding. POB is my favorite. For awhile I though Imagine was a much lesser album than POB, but I gave it a good listen and realized just how beautiful and melodically brilliant it is. Its gorgeous.
I could never sum John up in 3 songs. Is that possible? Could anyone try to?
-
wonderwall did.
-
I did. Didnt work though :(
-
Why didnt it work?
it looked like it worked
