It Was 25 Years Ago Today....

Just like the lyrics of the famous Beatles classic, it was 25 years ago today that John Lennon was sadly murdered. It was the end of the career of one of the greatest modern songwriters ever.

Everything seemed controversial about John Lennon's life. The pain of the early loss of his mother was reflected his song "Mother". And even his death was a strange end to an amazing talent.

Why the world was robbed of the talents of one of the greatest entertainers ever by a madman is a mystery for for the ages. But the world never quite seemed the same the day the music died. It ended all hope of A Beatles reunion for good. Some groups such as The Rolling Stones continue to produce music, yet the world never was able to enjoy more years of Beatles classics. It is hard to "Imagine" how many great Lennon-McCartney collaborations would never see the light of day when John Lennon suffered his deeply tragic murder. But in the hearts of fans, John Lennon will always be remembered. Great men live in the hearts of their fans forever. And John Lennon left a fantastic legacy of songs behind for his fans to love and embrace. His loss will never be forgotten. His memory will never die.
