"Your reputation precedes you"
July 16, 2013 at 7:49 pm
OK, some asshole advertised this video to me via my YouTube inbox:





Ratings are disabled, this cover is apparently "more accurate" and "less disrespectful", AND... apparently Lennon is "shallow-minded".

What are your thoughts on this oppressive propaganda?

It makes me want to write atheist lyrics to "Amazing Grace."

I can only get so angry because "Imagine" is the most overrated fucking song in human history.

Well, this is only because the artist was assassinated. If John died an uninterrupted death the song would be lesser. Also, it infatuates the views of hippies from that era. People can do mindless shit with sympathy being the motive. Like going to war for vengeance.

I think the song is:

Awesome, awesome and more awesome.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Figures that an asshole like you would think so.

It's a travesty to deface Lennon's work like that. The fucker should be sued.

That song is shit, the piano work is shit, the lyrics are shit, and the singing is shit.
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
