The writer will discuss the song lyrics and try to show how Lennon perfectly express his point of view against the continuous wars that happened during 1960s and 1970s. The writer will talk the relation between the facts during that era with the way Lennon communicated in the song as during the 1960s and 1970s, no matter the world wars have ended, there had been always the other wars that followed, like the Cold war plus all the wars that were directly and indirectly caused by it such as Vietnam war and another conflict that still continues until present day between Israel and Palestine. Moreover, the writer will also invite the readers to observe how strong a song and its lyrics could be to perform an effective communication to its listeners. The paper will see the song as one communication mean to express the songwriters feeling to a certain situation, which are continuous different wars that kept happening during the period the song was written. About the Songwriter: John Lennon John Lennon was born during the second world war period, October 9, 1940. He was the founder of the most famous group band of all time, The Beatles. During the Beatles era, he wrote a lot of amazing songs with very meaningful lyrics that have made him called as the smart Beatle. Some of his very famous songs as a Beatle member include Across the Universe, In My Life, Tomorrow Never Knows, Strawberry Fields Forever, Rain, and many others. After 10 years of The Beatles period, John Lennon never stopped to write masterpieces during his solo career. Numerous sensational songs have rocked the music world that attracted both admiration and criticisms to his songs lyrics. As a solo songwriter and singer collaborating with his second wife, Yoko Ono, they have cooperated very well in writing meaningful songs that help to communicate how a better world could be built; such as Give Peace a Chance, Instant Karma, Woman Is the Nigger of the World, Happy Xmas (War Is Over), and the most famous plus sensational one, the one the writer will explore in the paper, Imagine. During the last years of The Beatles time and also the last 10 years of his life, John Lennon had dedicated his days campaigning as a peace and political activist, expressing his point of view against wars that kept happening in that period. In this paper, the writer will discuss with the readers about Lennons uniqueness and brilliance in his famous Imagine and how every single lyrics have special meanings to communicate. Imagine Lyrics Imagine there's no heaven, It's easy if you try No hell below us, Above us only sky Imagine all the people, Living for today... Imagine there's no countries, It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for, And no religion too Imagine all the people, Living life in peace... You may say I'm a dreamer, But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us, And the world will be as one Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger, A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people, Sharing all the world... You may say I'm a dreamer, But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us, And the world will live as one Theoretical Framework III.1 The Culture of Rock Music for Politics and Counter-Culture During post-war era, the lifestyle of pop and rock music culture started to grow in the heart of the youth. The trend has begun to rise in the 1950s and has been seen as a long-term cultural investment and style (Bennett, 2001). Bennett mentioned that this lifestyle had grown rapidly especially in 1960s to 1970 and the pop rock music began to be used as a movement and a strategy to express opinions to socio-political events. And without stopping there, during the 1970s, popular music even grew more as an effective platform to communicate socio-political ideas. The relation in the term of communication between pop and rock music with socio-political ideas in the 1960s and 1970s is that it was used as the counter-cultural movement to politics (Bennett, 2001). Bennett said that the dominant sociological interpretation of the counter-culture suggests that it consisted of white middle class youth who were disillusioned with the way their parent culture controlled society and had no desire to become caught up in the machinery of social power themselves (2001:25-26). The pop and rock music during that period was used as a kind of revolutionary movement for social change. The youth in this period (1960s-1970s) acquired self-consciousness and made a model plus set the standard for the society around them. Musics role at that time in counter-cultural ideology had power to convey a community sense to the listeners who could understand the message given (Bennett, 2001). Music has become an effective mean to raise an awareness among the society. III.2 The Concept of Religion, Heaven, and Life after Death Religion came from the Latin word religare that means to tie and to bind. As we all know, there have been numerous religions in the world. By simply mentioning religion, the good simple explanation is to believe in God. According to Austin Cline, (retrieved March 11, 2013 from  HYPERLINK "http://atheism.about.com/od/religiondefinition/a/definition.htm"http://atheism.about.com/od/religiondefinition/a/definition.htm), religion has several traits that describes its belief system. Among those train, religion believes in supernatural beings (Gods), acknowledges sacred objects, has ritual acts, has a moral code, obliges the believers to pray, and gathers a social group to be bound together. When people believe in religion, they usually believe that theres life after death, which one of the concepts is heaven and hell. According to Concise Encyclopaedia, retrieved March 11, 2013 from  HYPERLINK "http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/heaven"http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/heaven, Heaven refers to a place where people will go after they die or the possible life after death, calculating the good deeds when they were still alive, and also the place where God lives. Heaven refers to the symbolism of good and faithfulness. On the other hand, if they have planted bad deeds on earth, they will go to hell, where they will be punished for the negative things they have done in the world. III. 3 Cold War According to history (retrieved March 15, 2013, from  HYPERLINK "http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/coldwar.htm" http://www.historylearningsite.co.uk/coldwar.htm ) Cold War is the war that started right after the second world war from 1947, which emerged two big superpower countries at that time after the war, The United States and The Soviet Union (USSR) as one has fear of the other and vice versa. Some of the reasons included The United States had fear of communist attack and USSRs dislike of capitalism. At that time, Truman also had dislike for Joseph Stalin while on the other hand, the USSR wanted to spread the communism to all world. The war started officially when the United States created NATO for its western bloc in 1949, which then was countered with the creation of Warsaw Pact and its Eastern Bloc by The Soviet Union in 1955. The war concept was based basically between the liberal countries like United States and its allies (USA, UK, Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxemburg, France, Canada, Portugal, Italy, Norway, Denmark and Iceland for its first members) and communist Countries like the Soviet Union states; Albania, Bulgaria, Hungary, the German Democratic Republic, the Poland, the Romania, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and Czechoslovakia as their first allies. But then, it was also helped by the China, North Korea, and North Vietnam. The Cold War didnt involve only the wars between NATO and The Warsaw Pact but it also had caused a lot of different wars like Berlin Blockade from 1948 to 1949, the Korean War (between North and South) from 1950 to 1953, the Suez Crisis in 1956, the Berlin Crisis of 1961, the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1962, the Vietnam War from 1954 to 1975, the Yom Kippur War in 1973, the Soviet war in Afghanistan from 1979 to 1989, and some of other wars. The war was taking so long from right after the second world war until the surprising fall of The Soviet Union in December 1991, which separated the Soviet Union into 15 different countries (retrieved March 15, from  HYPERLINK "http://www.coldwar.org/articles/90s/fall_of_the_soviet_union.asp" http://www.coldwar.org/articles/90s/fall_of_the_soviet_union.asp ). III. 4 Vietnam War Vietnam war was one of the wars that lasted the longest in history for around 20 years, from 1954 to 1975 (Vietnam War, retrieved March 11, 2013, from  HYPERLINK "http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/628478/Vietnam-War"http://www.britannica.com/EBchecked/topic/628478/Vietnam-War ). However, the history also counts that it lasted from 1946 as it was a larger war from Indochina War (1946-1954) and the Cold war between United States (with the formation of NATO between United States and its European Allies) and the Soviet Union (with its unified military organization called Warsaw Pact). The Cold War itself lasted very long, even longer than the Vietnam war, from after the end of World War II around 1947 until the fall of Soviet Union in 1991. Vietnam war happened specifically between the North Vietnam, which was supported by its communist allies including the Soviet Union, and South Vietnam, which was supported by the United States and anti-communist countries. The Vietnam War had caused lots of death that reached millions of life, estimated from one to 4 millions, from internal Vietnamese death and the external foreigners death, the supporters to both Vietnamese sides (North and South). During Vietnam war, there had been many protests who opposed against it. The clearest protesting campaigns took place during the 1960s to 1970s. It raised more protests, when The United States declared openly their participation in Vietnam War in 1964 by placing their troops in Vietnam (Miller, John W, Vietnam War Protest, retrieved from  HYPERLINK "http://digital.library.okstate.edu/encyclopedia/entries/v/vi005.html"http://digital.library.okstate.edu/encyclopedia/entries/v/vi005.html ). The protests rose from hundreds at the beginning until hundreds thousands of protesters gathering to raise empathy for the war. The war ended in 1975 with the withdrawal of US forces from Indochina; the winning of Communist Government in South Vietnam, Cambodia, and also Laos; and the unification of South and North Vietnam, becoming Socialist Republic of Vietnam. III. 5 Israel Palestinian Conflict This can be said as one of the longest conflict that ever happens, from the early 20th century until the present days. The conflict between Israel and Palestine started to raise highly happen once Israel declared the creation of the Israel country in 1948. The focuses of the conflict are basically in the Gaza Strip and West Bank. Some people consider this ongoing conflict as a type of Holy War. However, the others would say that its a conflict between nationalities and countries. The conflict goes on even until present days and has influenced a lot of other wars that include all the Israel-Arab wars; Independence War in 1948, The Sinai War in 1956, The Six Days War in 1967, and the Yom Kippur War in 1973 (retrieved March 14, 2013 from  HYPERLINK "http://www.science.co.il/arab-israeli-conflict.asp#Holyplaces" http://www.science.co.il/arab-israeli-conflict.asp#Holyplaces ). The conflict is based on the war to get territories between these countries, Israel and Palestine, which they consider as their holy sites. Some Islamic group in Palestine, considers that the conflict between them and Israel is a Jihad, which is a struggle to fight to show devotion for Islam as a religious duty (retrieved March 14, 2013 from  HYPERLINK "http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/jihad" http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/jihad ). However, according to the Israelis, the territories that they claim to be theirs, are the holy lands given to them by God. The holy sites include The Western Wall (Jerusalem), Dome of the Rock (Jerusalem), Al Aqsa Mosque (Jerusalem), Mount of Olives (Jerusalem), Baha'i Gardens (Akko), Baha'i Shrine & Gardens (Haifa), Mount Sinai (Sinai Peninsula, Egypt), and two sites in chaotic West Bank (including The Tomb of the Patriarchs in Hebron and The Church of the Nativity in Bethlehem, where Jesus Christ was born). These places have been in conflict with Palestine as some of the sites include also the holy places of Palestinian Moslems (The Most Important Holy Places, retrieved March 14, 2013 from  HYPERLINK "http://www.frommers.com/destinations/israel/0227020883.html" http://www.frommers.com/destinations/israel/0227020883.html ). According Arab-Israeli Conflict: Basic Facts (retrieved March 14, 2013 from  HYPERLINK "http://www.science.co.il/arab-israeli-conflict.asp#Holyplaces" http://www.science.co.il/arab-israeli-conflict.asp#Holyplaces ), under Jordanian rule, Jewish are prohibited to enter the holy sites in Temple Mount in Jerusalem, which the Israeli consider as the holiest to them. On the other hand, all Moslems and Christian sites are accessible by all believers under the Israeli rules. It even got worse when in 2000, the Palestinian mobs stole Josephs tomb (Joseph was the father of Jesus Christ), which is considered as the third holiest site of Israeli and tried to burn it after, according to Aaron Klein (Palestinians Burn Josephs Tomb, retrieved March 15, from  HYPERLINK "http://www.wnd.com/2008/02/56238/" http://www.wnd.com/2008/02/56238/ ). It was mentioned that the Palestinians also deny the religious rights for Israeli. Since this year, the worst has even come to realize itself with full of terror. The conflict has been so intense that no matter many peace concepts (Oslo Accords 1993, Camp David Summit 2000, Taba Summit 2001, Road Map for Peace - 2002, Arab Peace Initiative - 2002, etc) had been made earlier, they have never come into reality as nobody would surrender what they demand. Analysis Imagine is one of the strongest anti-war protest songs that appeared in 1971, during the era of the Vietnam War, Cold War and Israel-Palestine Conflict, written by John Lennon. Before Imagine, John Lennon had written anti-war songs either from when he was still in the Beatles like Revolution, or even when he was doing a solo career, such as Give Peace a Chance. However, in the paper, the writer would like to focus on one song thats considered as one of the best songs of all time and thats also considered as one of the most sensational ones but extremely beautiful and meaningful, Imagine. The basic concept of the song is about peace and the unity of all people in the whole world. The song consists of all aspects that could separate one human from another, including having religion (beliefs) or being atheist, nationalities or countries, and possessions (having food or having hunger). Of course many can stay good no matter how many differences humans can have. Though for greed and pride, certain differences that shouldnt make people fight or create war do cause people to break and fight between each other. But, lets move now to the parts of the song lyrics one by one. Imagine there's no heaven, It's easy if you try No hell below us, Above us only sky Imagine all the people, Living for today... From these first lines, we can see Lennon has expressed the idea of religion, heaven and life after death. People recognize heaven in above the sky, where God lives, where good people with good and right deeds on earth might go after they die. Many believers of many religions, with the idea of heaven, seek to plant as many good deeds as they can, according to their beliefs, while they still live on earth. By planting many good deeds on earth, they believe to be able to avoid hell, where bad things they do on earth will be punished severely. Actually, religions are supposed to teach us how to behave well and love one another without violence or murdering. However, some people might perceive religions according to their own way and could be often radical against another that doesnt believe the same way with what they believe. They believe by forcing people to behave the same way as they are taught in their religion, is the best for all and the most correct one and this action could reward them a safe seat in heaven. This kind of thought often brings people into fights or even war as in some religions, a war called Holy War does exist. According to BBC UK, retrieved March 12, 2013 from  HYPERLINK "http://www.bbc.co.uk/ethics/war/religious/holywar.shtml" http://www.bbc.co.uk/ethics/war/religious/holywar.shtml , holy war usually has three elements: the achievement for religious goals, authorized by religious leaders, and the spiritual reward for those who take part. Usually people believe this spiritual reward could be achieved after they die, the place near to God and staying in heaven with God. For example, according to the Peace Pledge Union Project (retrived March 12, 2012 from  HYPERLINK "http://www.ppu.org.uk/learn/infodocs/st_religions.html" http://www.ppu.org.uk/learn/infodocs/st_religions.html ), holy war is permitted by the Moslems for one reason when its a war against those who oppress the Moslem believers. Or else, there is also another term of holy war or just war Christianity that could be very ambiguous as Jesus Christ taught in a Sermon on the Mount (quoted in the bible: The New Testament: Matthew 5 - 7) to be non-violent. It was clearly stated that the blessed believers would be the peacemakers and theyll be called the children of God, as mentioned in the bible; Matthew 5:9. Even there is another part of the bible (Matthew 5:44) which mentioned love your enemies. This means that even if we have enemies, we must still love and forgive them. Even the writer ever reads in the bible, If your left cheek was slapped, give them your right cheek. This should mean no logic would be correct to perform Holy War. The example of war that could be related with a kind of Holy Wars the ongoing continuous war between Israel and Palestine. Of course some people consider that as simply a conflict between nationalities and countries for claiming territories. However, Israel and Palestinian conflict, that happens even until now, is also thought and considered as the war that touches the religions concepts as its basically between the Christian Jewish that keep requesting their holy territories, such as some sites in Jerusalem, which they think to be gifted by God to them, and the Moslem Palestinians, who defend their territories also because they consider the defence as doing Jihad, struggling in the name of Islam to defend and show devotion to their religion. Even this war has involved many other wars between the Israel with the other Moslem countries such as Arabic countries (Egypt and Iran). This war, no matter it has sacrificed many living souls, the guilty, the ones who dont really care about the war, and also the innocent ones like the normal civilians, hasnt stopped as they think its for the morality of their religions and for what each of them thinks is right. However, it can never stop as long as both of the parties never want to surrender and want only to win over what they think is correct, according to their religions. When people perceive religion wrongly or only according to their senses, religions might bring into something as fatal as wars and could sacrifice a lot of souls, which is very contradictory to the real concepts of religion. John Lennon once said, I believe that what Jesus and Mohammed and Buddha and all the rest said was right. It's just that the translations have gone wrong. This means that actually all religions teach only the good deeds to the believers. However, the fanaticism (retrieved March 12, 2013 from  HYPERLINK "http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-fanaticism.htm" http://www.wisegeek.com/what-is-fanaticism.htm ), which can be interpreted as unusual or even over-devotion to a particular thing, might cause people to overreact and act into stuffs that actually unnecessary to conduct. And it is why Lennon mentioned in the first lines of the song if we could imagine a sky without heaven above and also no hell menacing us below, then people would not try to do things they think is right according to their beliefs, only for the sake of a safe and secure life after death. He asked us if we could imagine that we just focus on living for the present and dont think about tomorrow, or the future, or implicitly, life after death, life would have been much more peaceful as theres nothing to chase and wait in the next future days. Now, lets see the next parts of the song: Imagine there's no countries, It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for, And no religion too Imagine all the people, Living life in peace... In these lines, Lennon mentions the concepts of nationalities and countries that divide people in the whole world and again, repeating no religion. However, lets explore first about his concepts on no countries or nationalities. During the era when the song was written by John Lennon, the world was facing the long big war named the Cold War, which happened between two super power countries that emerged right after the second world war at that time, The United States and The Soviet Union. The Cold War was so long and was covering almost the whole world with many following wars and many countries such as Korea, China, Vietnam (The Vietnam War that involved many other countries as the part of Cold War). It was once mentioned as the third World War. The United States at that time was allying with its western bloc in NATO formed in 1949 (North Atlantic Treaty Organization), which included many other countries such as Belgium, the Netherlands, Luxembourg, France, and the United Kingdom as its first allies that then were followed by the others. On the other hand, The Soviet Union was allying with its Eastern Bloc, which then formed the Warsaw Pact in 1955 that also included many communist countries who supported the Soviet Unions idea, as the counter strategy against NATO. The Cold War showed that when there were two big superpower countries and each other has their own visions different from one another, has fear of being defeated or attacked by another countries just because of different principles or different nationalities or allies, it could bring dangerous destruction to the whole world and human beings just for the separated concepts from one country to another. The Vietnam War, which was also caused by the Cold War, is also one of the inspiration of the song as the anti-war protest. As it was mentioned above in the theoretical concept, it happened quite long for more or less twenty years from 1954-1975. It did happen between two parts of Vietnam, The North and The South, however, it involved more countries than just those two sides. The North Vietnam was greatly helped by The Soviet Union as the North Part was communist and also supported by North Korea, China, and Cuba while the South Vietnam was helped by the United States, United Kingdom, South Korea, Australia, New Zealand, Thailand, Philippines, and Taiwan. The involvement of a lot of countries had sacrificed a lot of living souls, either the guilty and the innocent ones. This inspired that because people are divided into different nationalities and countries, it could influence them to kill or die for their own nationalities, for being nationalists, and for being devoted to their own. One clear examples are the excessive pride of being certain nationalities and even when we see many people who become soldiers and died for their own countries as the sacrifice for their countries. The Vietnam War (and also The Cold War) lasted so long with the involvement of so many countries that the songwriter invited us to imagine and think a world without countries or nationalities so that people have no reason of defending their own countries by killing or dying in the war. If only all the people could place peace as the highest value above everything, even their own countries or nationalities, the world could be a better place to live. John Lennon protested a lot for the Vietnam War not only with the song but he also even returned his MBE to the Queen of England as one of his protest signs for Britains involvement in wars, including the support for America in Vietnam War. He felt that he was selling his soul by accepting the medal and he thought to redeem it by returning the medal. Here we can see his explanation to the Queen: Your Majesty - I am returning this MBE in protest against Britain's involvement in the Nigeria-Biafra thing, against our support of America in Vietnam, and against 'Cold Turkey' slipping down the charts. With love, John Lennon. (retrieved March 12, 2013 from  HYPERLINK "http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Why_did_John_Lennon_hand_his_MBE_back" http://wiki.answers.com/Q/Why_did_John_Lennon_hand_his_MBE_back ). Actually, one more time, these lines also describe the facts of Israeli-Palestinian Conflict too as not only it involves religions, it also involves countries and nationalities. So, Lennon is quite right when he wrote the line, Imagine there's no countries, It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for, And no religion too as the conflict involves dying and killing for their own countries and holy territories plus fighting for their own religions (considered as holy war) without considering further consequences such as long-term torture even for the innocent. Furthermore, lets have a look at the next lines of the song, which goes; You may say I'm a dreamer, But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us, And the world will be as one With these lines, the songwriter, John Lennon, invites us to seek for peace and unity. After singing the lines about the fights and wars that can be caused from the separation of religions and also countries, he communicate how we can reach one world for all if we share the same dream for peace. He hopes that someday we could make a world as one. He was thinking himself as a dreamer as during that period, war was so intense and involving so many countries that peace seemed impossible to achieve and as if he had sounded as he was dreaming for thinking peace. However, by writing this song, he wishes to communicate to the public as his reaction to the political events such as wars and invites the people to get influenced from what he tries to communicate, to have some peace and one united world. Not only mentioning about the concepts of religions and also countries or nationalities, John Lennon also writing lines about possessions, which also usually lead people to greed: Imagine no possessions, I wonder if you can No need for greed or hunger, A brotherhood of man Imagine all the people, Sharing all the world... Possessions, in the term of goods and stuffs, according to Free Dictionary, retrieved on March 12, 1013 from  HYPERLINK "http://www.thefreedictionary.com/possession" http://www.thefreedictionary.com/possession , refer to something owned such as property or wealth. Humans, the people, especially even more during the modern era, seem impossible to live without any possessions. Not only during the modern era, even 50 years ago, in the era of the songwriter, possessions were so important for each person. Possessions could include the owning of basic to luxury goods, food, money, and everything else that can refer to someones wealth and property. John Lennon once said, If everyone would demand peace instead of another television set, then there'd be peace It means that every single person has their own desire for possessing certain goods that peace seems to be much less important than possessions, especially luxury goods like TV set (in the 1960s and 1970s, a TV was still a luxury good and not like today when its so normal to see a TV set in everyones house). The greed for owning some possessions, according to Lennon, could cause the sense of being tactless within some people to the concept of peace and war as they might think that its nothing to worry about, compared to not having anything to possess in life. According to Lennon, if theres no possession by certain people such as goods, property or money, all things could be shared without fighting between each other. There would be no greed for some things and all people could have access to basic and primary thing. There would be no hunger or starvation that still happens in certain countries such as Ethiopia as there are no possessions, there would be no monopoly for certain good, the rich and the poor. According to Barbara OBrien, retrieved March 13, 2013, from  HYPERLINK "http://buddhism.about.com/od/basicbuddhistteachings/a/greed.htm" Buddhism versusConsumerism , humans have tendency to have desire, which is the will to possess something so much. And this desire, when its uncontrolled, could lead into greed, which is the attempts to possess stuffs more than someone needs or has the right to acquire. Unfortunately, humans have the tendency of being dissatisfied. No matter how much they have, they will always want more and more . Lennon also said, Possession isn't nine-tenths of the law. It's nine-tenths of the problem.. So, according to Lennon the desire for possessions could bring up problems as greed might turn up once people want to possess more and more . According to the song, it would have been better when all the people share all the world together and maintain the brotherhood of all man without having greed in any possession. And again, at the end of the lyrics, Lennon repeats his message one more time to make sure that what he wants to communicate absorbs to the listeners mind and heart and also to make sure that his message understood by the listeners, which is focused on Peace and Anti-War Protests, nothing else, nothing more. You may say I'm a dreamer, But I'm not the only one I hope someday you'll join us, And the world will live as one By emphasizing one more time that what he was trying to communicate is actually about living the world as one, as a unity, without fights and wars, he wishes that his communication reaches perfectly to his listeners. And this is the real message that he wants to communicate to us, and its surely not about anti-religions or anti-nationalities, but its merely about anti-war and peace. Only that he uses those lines as often, when humans translations about religion could go wrong and nationalities could make people become fanatic or have too much pride or greed, wars under these unreasonable reasons usually happen without further thoughts and consideration, as we can see in the Cold War and Israel-Palestine Conflict that have caused many people to suffer. John Lennon described that the concept of this song is positive prayer with world at peace, without denominations of religion. And once again, it doesnt mean no religion, but it means that it would have been better without My God is bigger than your God Thing (as he mentioned one time). And the writer wants to add too, that the world would also have been better with peace when its without domination of any nationalities or countries trying to demonstrate their superpower. It doesnt mean no countries. But it simply should mean without My country and nationality is the best and better than yours thing. Conclusion What the writer can conclude from the song lyrics is that it could strongly communicate what the songwriter expects the listeners to understand from what he wants to say. Especially in this song, John Lennon has written the song in a very amazing way that the messages, which could be possibly offensive, are not offending anyone as the song lyrics are sugar-coated to prevent any party to get offended. Imagine has been one of the most popular songs used as an effective way of communicating peace to the people and also an anti-war protest between one and another even until todays time. It has been made into different covers by a lot of singers, including 140 famous singers that include Italian Singer, Gino Paoli for the Italian version, Madonna, Stevie Wonders, Elton John, Diana Ross, Joan Baez, Avril Lavigne, and many others. The song is so wonderfully written that it conveys many meaningful messages inside the lyrics, which is united for one broad message, peace for all and one world for all without discrimination. John Lennon, according to David Fricke from Rolling Stone, calls us for unity and equality for every human that is based with the elimination of modern social orders such as geopolitical borders (countries and nationalities), religions, and also economic class (based on possessions). So now, its according to us whether wed like to understand the messages in the positive way and help Lennon spread them to the world for the concept of a better world and better living for all. Because, we have to make a bigger dream for all and create a beautiful reality out of it. As John Lennon said, A dream we dream alone is just a dream, but a dream we dream together is a reality.
