It's a sad day for me because my Grandfather died 14 years ago. But that certainly is tragic about Lennon's life ending so suddenly by that mental case. I wonder what his legacy will be in another 26 years.

I'll use this topic to instead say R.I.P. Dimebag.

Wow, how respectful Zersch.

Pinkette: I wouldn't be surprised if he's not remembered, as I mentioned this in numerous classes at school and got responses such as "who's that?" "John who?" "Who's Lennon?" and other puzzled responses at least 3/4ths of the time. That's quite sad. Sorry for your loss.

He also got shot on this day, and I decided to just use this topic instead of creating my own. Nothing disrespectful here.

Oh, I didn't know. So sorry. Not that disrespectful. What's sad is today's youth has no clue who he is.

Gah. I can't believe it was already the second anniversary of his death. It barely felt like a year.

I can understand kids not knowing who he is. Especially since most children don't really develop any real musical taste until they're older. But I don't think I know a single adult who doesn't know who John Lennon is.

Thank you :)

Seriously, it seems a lot of adults and kids I talk to have no idea who he is.

Obviously, that's a Roy Orbison song.

The only version I'm familiarized with is Linda Ronstadt's.

You could do a search, I don't know who wrote it, but it's on "The Very Best Of Roy Orbison."

Linda's Ronstadt's version annoys the fuck out of me. I'll see what I can find.
