Up until the war in Ukraine, Julian Lennon vowed never to perform his late father John Lennon's song "Imagine." In a video posted on Friday, that all changed as part of Global Citizen's social media rally, Stand Up For Ukraine.
In the caption of the video, which Lennon posted to his YouTube, he says:
"As a human, and as an artist, I felt compelled to respond in the most significant way I could. So today, for the first time ever, I publicly performed my Dad’s song, IMAGINE. Why now, after all these years? - I had always said, that the only time I would ever consider singing ‘IMAGINE' would be if it was the ‘End of the World’…"
Of course, we have to share the original masterpiece as well.
