BODY:
On a cold December evening
I was walking through the Christmas tide
When a stranger came up and asked me
If I'd heard John Lennon had died
And the two of us went to this bar
And we stayed to close the place
And every song we played
Was for The Late Great Johnny Ace
The Late Great Johnny Ace
-Paul Simon
Yesterday marked the 25th anniversary of the death of John Lennon. Today marks the anniversary of the day I became a fan of John Lennon. I was 11 when I watched his murder unfold on television. I was fascinated by his story. I began to pay attention to the music, really pay attention.
