Bon Marleys lyrics are very radical. Just goes to show how little people actually listen to the meaning of songs. Bob is so popular, but his lyrics meanings are not  |

True. John Lennon I think is similar in that people dont get the 'radicalness' of songs like 'workingclass hero' and 'imagine'.

Some people think Imagine is about 'heaven'. Each to their own I suppose. Its like religion, people take what they want from it.

Some people think Imagine is about 'heaven'. It is! lol. Yeah, I know loads of people who loved the song but never knew what it meant. I had to work it out for myself after years of listening to it. I only copped it when I realised he was a leftie, then it clicked. I'm not mad on working class hero though, its a little too much like he's blaming the working class/ the other people (as opposed to the ruling class and capitalists) for socities problems. Imagine is a little more focused. It can't really be mistaken for anything else (bar heaven lol). |
