John Lennon

Is it possible that there is still not a John Lennon (as a soloist) thread? What do you guys think about his post-Beatles era?

I've been deeply listening to John's discography in chronological order (I recommend it so bad) and I found several pearls.



Also, I found some intresting and surprising lyrics to analyze. E.g.:

"I don't believe in Beatles
I just believe in me, Yoko, and me, and that's reality
The dream is over
What can I say?
The Dream is over
Yesterday"

Song: God
Album: Plastic Ono Band, 1970

This one really shocks me . He wrote that just 1 year after The Beatles breaking up. I mean... Everyone knows (more or less) what was going on between them, but this lyrics sound pretty much direct and strong... Right?
