      Reminder that at the time John Lennon released "Imagine" he was also having them put an air-conditioned closet in his apartment to keep his collection of fur coats from sweating

      I saw John Waters years ago, around the time the original "Hairspray" came out, and he was talking about how he disliked the Beatles. "The only thing worse was Lennon's solo career. 'Imagine no possessions.' Oh please. You live at the Dakota. YOU imagine it!"

      This of course was after Lennon had been shot, but Waters is the king of IDGAF.

      The whole thing with him getting shot is it poisoned the well because everything the shooter said to the cops about why he hated Lennon was a totally fair critique, except for the part where he shot him

      I haven't been able to find media from that time regarding Chapman's statements other than that he hated Lennon because he was super-famous; what sorts of things did he say to the cops?

      He specifically said he deeply resented a millionaire living in an apartment overlooking Central Park lecturing the rest of the world on imagining no possessions

          As Elvis Costello sang in "The Other Side of Summer": Was it a millionaire Who said "imagine no possessions"? A poor little schoolboy who said "we don't need no lessons"?

          Didn’t he also stand there calmly reading The Catcher in the Rye, then hand the book to the cops and tell them that book would explain everything?
