Will you still love me when I'm an incredibly humungoid giant star?

Will you still love me when I'm in my hanging-out-with-Ravi-shankar phase?

Will you still love me when I'm in my carbohydrate, sequined-jumpsuit, young-girls-in-white-cotton-panties, waking-up-in-a-pool-of-your-own-vomit, bloated-purple-dead-on-a-toilet phase?

Was it a millionaire who said "imagine no possessions"?

It's fine. You'll hate his voice on the opening verse. He settles into it, though by the end. Breathy as expected. The star is the audience singing along. I know it's Imagine. But I was actually more moved than I expected to be.

Despite the multitude of reasons that releasing this in this fashion makes practically zero sense, I really enjoyed that.

One of the better solo Ed moments that I can remember (granted, i don't remember that many).

This will certainly get multiple listens from me.

I'll put the over/under on the percentage of fan club members who buy it anyways at 45. There's gotta be multiple threads over there titled "Who will join me in supporting this great cause by purchasing Imagine on iTunes at midnight on Monday?"

conjures imagery of a british millionaire spending his days sitting around in one of the most aristocratic buildings on central park west ordering room service and complaining about stuff.

so unique!

so profound!

so appropriate for the lead singer of Pearl Jam LLC at this stage in his lifecycle

imagine there's just gift cards
it isn't hard to do
nothing to save, just buy more

imagine all the T-Bills, maturing day by daaaay

maybe some day, you'll join us, OOOOhhh

what other brave visionary will stand up on the bridge of Larry Ellison's yacht to play ostrich-egg bocce ball in the name of peace ?

take the ostrich-egg bocce challenge for peace!
