How did he die? If it was a suicide or drug overdose then I think it's funny and he deserved it!

We going for a second day of mourning?

He was assassinated by a crazed guy outside his apartment... he definitely did not deserve it. He was an icon of peace and a musical genius.

Sorry, I was being facetious (see the Dimebag thread).

If were gonna keep playing the 'how old are you' card then I suspect he died before you were born, I'm sure you were devastated...

He died almost two years before I was born but I was still raised listening to all of the Beatles albums and solo work. Despite his crazed bitch, there's nothing bad I can say about the man. "Imagine" has to be one of my all time favorite songs, never ever... ever gets old. That song says so much and was said in a time when it was taboo to speak that way. People accepted it though, and millions of people around the world mourned when he was taken. Wasn't there like 3 suicides during his rememberance?

I wasn't raised around the music. I was just raised around the fact that I "should like him because everyone else does" so that turned into me not liking him.

To quote Denis Leary: "We live in a country, where John Lennon takes six bullets in the chest, Yoko Ono was standing right next to him and not one fucking bullet! Explain that to me!"

i liked the APC (A Perfect Circle) version better. Not many do.

Indeed, RIP John Lennon and Dimebag Darrell. Both MURDERED on December 8th, but in different years.

He was murdered without reason.

His assassin had "just about every psychological disorder in the book".
His excuse for killing John Lennon was to find his personality or something (he was narcictic)
