He was such a flawed individual with so many faults like any normal person and I think that's why people relate to him.

Happy Birthday John, I'm sure you're up there now making great music with George and your mum.

In 2010 where pop acts can't sing,can't dance ,can't play an instrument and certainly don't write their own songs - John's birthday is a reminder of what a true musical legend is

Happy Birthday for tommrow John .

Absolutely. Been a huge fan of his for years now and I agree that it was his music that made him a legend, but the fact he was just a flawed, idealistic but hypocritical human-being like all of us, was what made him a hero.

Thanks John, and happy birthday!

Thank you John for all the great music, your wit, your ascerbic charm, your great partnership, your ideas and creativity. Sometimes you didn't get it right, but then who ever does?
Though a lifelong, very loyal Macca fan, you were the 'business'.

Just want to repeat a post I left on another thread, for any fans interested.

BBC Radio 7 are broadcasting a drama from the perspective of journalist/John's friend Ray Connolly, on the killing of John.

It's on right now and is repeated at 01.00 or is available on 'listen again'.

Just listening has brought it all back to me. I had forgotten how devastated I was that day, it was as if half my life had been shot away and I was in shock for a week. I'd been brought up on The Beatles.

R.I.P. John.

Happy Birthday John Lennon.
Your music and lyrical expression were just so honest and real. As a person you were equally blunt and abrupt.

"It's Johnny's Birthday" George Harrison.
