Would you like to dedicate a song to John Lennon?

Question

As we all know (well, maybe not "all") John Lennon was shot on this same day in 1980 outside of the Dakota building in NYC. So, if you would like, you can dedicate a song to his ashes... well, maybe not. But, I think we should all share a song that we like in his honor. 

BQ: Do you like the Beatles?
BQ1: Who's your favorite Beatle? Why, if you'd like. 
BQ2: Favorite dead musician?

Imagine all the people living for today.

RIP John Lennon ♥

Wish You Were Here- Pink Floyd

BA: That would be an understatement.
BA2: I adore John's "I don't give a damn" attitude and dizzying intellect. As for the one I admire for lyrical and musical talent, Macca.
BA3: I'll say John Lennon to keep the focus on him and his impact on so many areas of human life. Rest in peace, man

Rhiannon · Answer

Well, technically speaking, the anniversary of his death is tommorow (he died a little while after midnight), not today, but that's okay:

Actually, I'm a songwriter, and I have dedicated a few songs to John. Boy, do we need someone like him nowadays!

I am rather obsessed with The Beatles and I have no favorite one. Waay too hard to pick.

BQ: Yep.
BQ1: I'll go with Lennon, always been my favorite Beatle.
BQ2: Chuck Schuldiner of Death

Edit: Why anyone would have given 12/08/80 a thumb's down is beyond me, this isn't about expressing your opinion, it's about honoring the memory of one of the greatest musicians of all time.
