Watch ex-Beatles John Lennon and George Harrison develop OH MY LOVE- 1971 Imagine Recording Sessions

Did John Lennon predict his own violent death?

I believe the above clip is from the Imagine Documentary DVD. (That I had purchased around 15 yrs ago myself). I remember being blown away (no pun intended) when I first saw it, but had forgotten about it, until I spotted this very clip posted as a short by someone, which I noticed on my YouTube home page just several days ago. Along with many others, I had posted a comment about it. When I had received a notification that a second person had 'liked' my comment, I noticed that the video was somewhat oddly removed by the account holder, as stated by YouTube. I had initially posted the short to my Pinterest account, as I kinda' wanted a record of it, because it was so incredible, for lack of a better word. And so, looking for a replacement, I found the above video (which is basically the same short I had initially posted to Pinterest) and is how this whole blog post started. (As there is some really interesting stuff here, in more ways then one). 

Yea (as I stated in my initial comment) it almost seems like the Universe was trying to give John Lennon a warning in some way, and in a rather indirect way at that; as I definitely believe myself, that Ouija Boards are potentially VERY dangerous, and should generally be avoided to begin with. But John seemed to have that spiritual like side to him, as mentioned in one of the other videos above. For instance, he seemed to feel that the number 9 had some kind of significance in his life. 

For example, he and his son were both born on Oct 9th. John, oddly, also died on the 9th of December, of all days! He was also considered to be VERY intuitive, extremely smart, and even somewhat psychic. (Although, he obviously, was also a little eccentric as well).

With all this being said, it is also interesting to note, that Lennon did seem to be aware (as expressed in some of his quotes and lyrics) that he had something of a problem, with some crazy, negatively obsessed fans and individuals, that often caused him to be something of a recluse at times. (Which, in all honesty, among other things, I can kinda' relate to myself). For instance, here are some of the lyrics to his song, The Ballad of John & Yoko: "Christ you know it aint easy. You know how hard it can be. The way things are goin', they're gonna' crucify me..."

"When John did an interview with someone prior to his death, he mentioned he didn't want to sell his soul again. Sadly,  you only need to do it once...then payday comes. Maybe John was breaking away from it towards the end." -Susan P 

(YouTube Viewer).

"I first heard this rumor on coast to coast am and I believe it ! The story revealed that the last year of his life he was writing letter after letter to every priest, evangelist and shaman to get the contract of his soul voided. But in those days things were very odd and believable." -Jimi (YouTube Viewer).

Disclaimer: This is really all just conjecture (and hearsay) here, and part of the whole myth surrounding The Beatles. Makes for some interesting legend, if nothing else. 

I guess, we probably may never really know if it is all really true or not...

"Meanwhile, as our government worries about a musical legend, tons of kidnappings, rapes and clergy abuse went unseen at this time." -Sue Boyd (YouTube Viewer).

Another interesting track, that Lennon said was basically a goof on that certain segment of American society's obsession with guns, and violence. And written back in the 1960's no less! (Lennon was also interestingly, against the Vietnam War). 

He said it was initially influenced by an ad he inadvertently came across in a gun magazine entitled: "Happiness is a Warm Gun." (Of course, we know, that ironically, it was a psychopath with a gun who eventually ended his life). According to John, the track, in the end, ultimately developed into something of a musical collage'...

The Beatles: Get Back World Premiere

The Beatles - Let It Be

In light of the coming release of the new Beatles documentary Get Back, which is supposed to utilize a considerable amount of extended (and refurbished) footage from the film Let It Be, scheduled to be released on Nov 25th, I was just looking (out of curiosity) to see if anything was available regarding the original movie (like on Amazon Prime for instance) but this was the only thing I could find. Brings back so many memories, and sorta' like gets you in the mood for the coming documentary on Disney +  Let It Be (1970 film) - Wikipedia
