    Opinions are like....

    Only John understands where this song came from and why he wrote it. However, I grew up during the time John describes and I miss it. Call it what you like, doesn't change anything.

    You can drop the Mysterious Artist Routine. It's obvious what the song is about regardless of the inspiration. It's too stupid to be complex.

    Emotional, maybe, but nostalgic tripe nonetheless. This Kennedy-as-messiah mentality is worn down to a nub. No wonder they had to take him down from the cross and put Lennon up. Hopefully, Bono will live forever.

    And yeah, I grew up in the sixties too, just like half the people on this board.

    As you said, opinions are like....
