Let Me Take You Down


Every year, on December 8th, mourners gather at the Imagine Memorial in Strawberry Fields to sing and remember John Lennon. 

This year, I trudged through thick, wet snow after work to make it there.  I sang “Hello, Goodbye” and “You’ve Got to Hide Your Love Away.”  I tried to take a video but it was far too dark, and all you could hear was my nasal  “HEY-LA, HEY LA HEY LO-A” and a little clapping.  There are better videos out there on YouTube, and I suggest checking a few of them out.
