Why oh why? I heard his "Well well well" in The Departed back in the day, that got me going again.

Thank you for showing me this song! I'm just going through his discography and discovering new songs everyday (he's so versatile lol). I had a music teacher in highschool who was a snobby hipster (John Lennon was his favorite artist), he'd let us chill in his class during lunch and play the music we'd like (although he'd argue/debate with me/others frequently about music, and rant about John).

He seriously turned me off from his music back then, wish I could have a serious conversation with him about it today. The FBI documents on him lead by J. Edgar Hoover is what made me check out his music - his lyrics were in some of the documents!

Heck yeah he's got songs all over the place. Man that's a trip when the FBI is quoting your lyrics in files. Stuff like this makes me think he knew what was going on.. maybe he was an actual threat to TPTB https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=john+lennon+maniacs
