Such imagery, coupled with the tragedy of his murder in 1980, has often led to Lennon's being sentimentalized as a gentle prince of peace gazing off into the distance at an Eden only he could see. In fact, he was a far more complex and difficult person, which, in part, accounts for the world's endless fascination with him. Plastic Ono Band (1970), the first solo album he made after leaving the Beatles, alternates songs that are so emotionally raw that to this day they are difficult to listen to with songs of extraordinary beauty and simplicity. Gripped by his immersion in primal-scream therapy, which encouraged its practitioners to re-experience their most profound psychic injuries, Lennon sought in such songs as "Mother" and "God" to confront and strip away the traumas that had afflicted his life since childhood.
"Imagine there's no countries
ResponderEliminarIt isn't hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too."
Una exposición preciosa. Cien por cien Lennon. Me encanta.
Es increíble la cantidad de cosas que se pueden hacer desde una biblioteca. Antes esta era una sala misteriosa y olvidada a la que uno sólo iba en el recreo cuando se olvidaba de hacer los deberes de mate...
Si necesitáis colaboradores no tenéis más que decirlo (ya lo hacéis pero bueno...).
Si hay que aportar una idea yo propongo que se pongan canciones de John Lennon y de The Beatles en el patio cubierto y en el vestíbulo. Además ahora que viene la Navidad esa, ¿qué mejor villancico (no religioso) que Imagine?
