Imagine - John Lennon





A brand new transfer, taken from a first-generation 35mm inter-negative of the original 16mm Imagine film negative. Restored and remastered for the very first time in a stunning new digital transfer. Directed by John & Yoko, this was originally filmed on 22 July 1971, and is now seen with its full original intro sequence.


"Imagine" is a song co-written and performed by English musician John Lennon. The best-selling single of his solo career, its lyrics encourage the listener to imagine a world at peace without the barriers of borders or the divisions of religion and nationality and to consider the possibility that the whole of humanity would live unattached to material possessions. Shortly before his death, Lennon said that much of the song's "lyric and content" came from his wife Yoko Ono, and in 2017, she received a co-writing credit.






Lyrics


Imagine there's no countries

It isn't hard to do

Nothing to kill or die for

And no religion, too


Imagine all the people

Living life in peace


You, you may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you will join us

And the world will be as one


Imagine no possessions

I wonder if you can

No need for greed or hunger

A brotherhood of man


Imagine all the people

Sharing all the world


You, you may say I'm a dreamer

But I'm not the only one

I hope someday you will join us

And the world will live as one




Songwriters: JOHN LENNON
