Ok Guys. This is a project I got in my mind, and I've gotten Joe's permisison, I'm going to share it with you.

 

You know that John's birthday is coming soon. And it's a big one : 70. So I was thinking, how about if we make a topic to post a message to John? Like a birthday card or something like that. I've done this before and it works out quite nicely.

 

I was thinking in something to write to John, and maybe post a pic to show about our love for John. So the idea would be just have that topic with the congratulations messages. If there are some (maybe like 10 or 15), maybe I can post them all in my website with a nice format. Or post those messages in Beatles Bible's John's section.

 

So what do you think guys? Something to celebrate John big 70?a-hard-days-night-john-2

 

Edit : I don't want to post that much in this topic, so I'll write some little rules (to have everything organized) and update this message ok??

Here comes the sun….. Scoobie-doobie……

Something in the way she moves…..attracts me like a cauliflower…

Bop. Bop, cat bop. Go, Johnny, Go.

I think it's a great idea!

I'd like to be, under the sea, in an octopus's garden, with you.

I'm already writing my book “How John Lennon Changed My Life”, and I might go to the Strawberry Fields memorial in New York (?) and give it to him (or wherever donations are “accepted”).

I'm about 3 pages in. I was thinking about keeping it short, though, maybe like 20 pages.

Count me in, mithveaen – just let us know what to do and when. This is a cool idea!

I wonder if this is something that can be submitted to the http://www.boxofvision.com/TimeCapsule/

I don't really have time to get behind this as I'm making my own John tribute here on the site, but I'm more than happy for something to happen here on the forum, or maybe in the John section itself.

Joe that's a terrific idea! But the thing is, does it have to be a video?? 

 

So maybe people can upload their videos here and send them there.

Imagine there was no Lennon.

I wonder if you can.

No Love Me Do or Please Please Me ,

No Nowhere Man

 

Imagine all the people,

Living without you, John.

 

You said you were a dreamer,

But you weren’t the only one.

We truly love and miss you,

Through us all you will live on.

 

Happy Birthday , John.

That is awesome Zig.

 

Ok you can either post your messages here or send them to johnlennon_70  at   hotmail.com

 

Here's a test of the page. And yes, I stole Joe's idea for his John Lennon 's section, (sorry Joe) but tomorrow I might look for another picture I want. To  be honest, I didn't have much time to prepare it. Actually I'm quite sad because all the plans we had to celebrate the week (the discussion session, the showing of the movies) just fell apart. So I'm doing this as quickly as I can so it's ready for this Saturday 🙁

Wow – thanks everyone. Use it as you see fit.

mithveaen – your John's birthday tribute site is still a great idea.

Everyone – let's help her out by submitting your thoughts about John's birthday – it doesn't have to be a poem or a song – just say what is in your heart.

If you miss him as much as I, the words will flow out like….well….you know.

When we fell in love with you,

we all promied to be true,

 and and you helped me, understand.

 Cause we were in love with Paul, but we found that you were all,

 we needed, to give, all out lovin too.

 When we gave our hearts to you, we must have sure from the vary start,

 that you, would love us more than Jude.
