Love is the flower you've got to let grow.

Five things wich maybe you didn´t know about John Lennon:

1)      The first thing John learned to play wasn´t a guitar, his uncle gave him a harmonica. More later his mother Julia, introduced him to the banjo

2)      Curiously he was the last Beatle to learn drive, he began at 24 years and the people said that he was a terrible driver.

3)      John bought a small island where he let a litter community of hippies live. When he died, Yoko sold it for 30000 pounds.

4)      He was the only one who never went to Paul concert.

5)      Nobody know where are the ashes of John Lennon. When he died his ashes where given to  Yoko and she never told where she spread them. But  it is possible she spad them in Central Park

The lost weekend

May Pang: May was the personality assistant of John for three years. Yoko confessed that she and John lived a separate season and suggested that began a relationship with him. In that moment May was 22 years and this proposition was unexpected for her.

She and John began a relationship that lasted 18 months (Jon more later about this season said that was his “lost weekend”). In 1974 John and May didn`t want answer calls by Ono but in 1975 he agree to meet with she. After that meeting, John didn`t return with May and said that the separation with Yoko had finished.

Life is what happens while you are busy making other plans.

Julian Lennon: Julian was the first soon of John, was the result of the married between Cynthia and John. John was not present at the birth of Julian and was not until three days later that saw him.

Their relationship was always strained and since John and Yoko moved to New York in 1971 didn`t return to see his soon until 1973.

Julian started to see his father again regularly, and John gave place to play drums on a track “Walls and Bridges”. John before his death said that he and Julian will have more intimate relationship, but later in his will was discovered that there was almost nothing left him.

Sean Lennon: when Lennon and Yoko were reunited, she became pregnant of Sean.

Sean was born on October 9, 1975, in John`s 35 birthday. Lennon after his birth proudly decalred: “he didn`t come out of my belly but, by God, I made his bones, because I took care of all his meals, and the way he sleep, and the fact that swim like a fish”

Everything is clearer when you're in love.

Yoko Ono: There are two versions of how John met Yoko, the first being that met in 1966 at an exhibition of Yoko in London, the other version is told by McCartney that said that they  met in 1965 when Yoko looked original scores for a book that John Cage was writing. Paul refused to give it but John was the one who gave it. When John came with Yoko, he told that he wasn´t the guy who beat and denigrated womens. John and Yoko married in Mallorca (Spain) in 1969.After a period that they was separated Yoko was pregnant of Sean Lennon that was born in 1975.

   

When I cannot sing my heart, I can only speak my mind.

This follow days we going to talk about the people with whom Lennon shared his life.

Cynthia Powel: John's first wife was Cynthia Powell, with whom he was married from 1962-1968. They met in 1957  because they studying in the same school of Liverpool. At first Cynthia didn`t  like but she ended feeling attracted him. In the course prom John asked her to be his girlfriend, they quickly became inseparable, spending long hours together in bars and cinema, She went to all the concerts of his first group. Already in the Beatles, on tour in Germany she didn`t accompany him but she couldn`t hold out much that remoteness and was been visiting in Hamburg. Lennon became possessive and suspicious in their relationship, and often resorted to physical violence. In 1962 Cynthia became pregnant of Julian and in the same year they married. 

When John had trip to Gales she couldn`t went to him and when she  learned Lennon's relationship with Ono, Cynthia had its own one-night stand with Alexis Mardas. A few weeks later Mardas told her Lennon was seeking a divorce and custody of Julian on grounds of her adultery, to which Mardas would witness. After negotiation, Cynthia gave in and agreed to divorce him for the same reasons. Cynthia died in 1.April.2015

All we are saying is give peace a chance.

I don't believe in killing, whatever the reason

This is the killer of ex-Beatle John Lennon. He said he used hollos point bullets to shoot the singer "because they were more deadly" 

Chapman said he was living in Hawaii when he decided to murder Lennon “because he was very famous.”

He said he also considered  killing Johnny Carson and actor George C. Scott.

But Lennon was more famous, Chapman said. He insisted he had no anger toward Lennon: “If he was less famous than three or four other people on the list, he would not have been shot.” Chapman said he bought the gun he used in Honolulu he needed only to show a driver’s license to get it. He said he got the hloow-point bullets from an old friend in Atlanta who was a police officer. He had flown from Hawaii to New York twice to chek out lennon´s apartment building, called the Dakota. He called his wife, who was in Hawaii, and told her of hid deadly plan but that he decided not to go through with it.

Before 11: p.m, Lennon and Ono arrived at the apartment building. Ono got out of the car fist then Lennon passed me by, I pulled out my weapon out and shot him in the back, Champam said. Onec in jail he said : It was a very selfish act an I deeply regret it , I´m sorry for mi crime .

Love is the answer, and you know that for sure.
