Thanks for the superb song, David.
Always sad to see John; even if he hadn't died young, the demons in his life caught up with him too soon.

I've always thought that this was one of the Fab4's best ever songs. Simple yet poignant, the title line so true, so often. The closing flute just sighs and says "that's life".

Great song. And the feeling of what if always lingers in Lennon's case since he was so young when he was killed.

Ah, thats good.

Noel

I'll gently disagree with you there. John had gone through his period of near-insanity and drugs. But I get the impression that at the time of his death, he had conquered most if not all of his demons. He was happily married, was totally enjoying his role as a father, and things were pretty great for him.

If he had lived ( if only ) , he'd be traipsing around Central Park or someplace today, enjoying the spring sun.
