Sean’s “In the Sky”John Lennon

Songwriter: John Lennon

Producer: John Lennon

"Daddy, when did we have no house?"
"When?"
"When, when did we have no house, and we rented this house?"
"In 1973, we didn't have this house, yet. That's when we bought this house."
"Oh!"
"Two years before you were born."
"Oh, and I just wasn't coming with you to find this house?"
"No, well, you weren't born yet. You were still in the sky."
"Oh, and when I came back down here, what did I went in?"
"A little, a little cardboard box with a little blanket in it. Little teeny tiny, teeny tiny little Sean in a little tiny cardboard box that used to have apples in it. Hmm. You used to do this here."
"I never heard of a apple box!"
"Well, a little cardboard box like that, you see, like they bring groceries in, only it
Was you instead of the groceries."

John Lennon

As the founding member of The Beatles, John Winston Lennon (1940-1980) is one of the most recognizable cultural icons of the 20th Century. He is also the other half of the Lennon-McCartney songwriting partnership, alongside fellow Beatle, Paul McCartney.

As a solo artist and through his relationship and collaboration with avant-garde artist Yoko Ono, he became just as recognizable for his political activism.

Lennon was murdered by Mark David Chapman on December 8, 1980, outside of his New York apartment, The Dakota. Since then, his music and message remain timeless.
