RIP John!

We miss you, John. We need you in this world right now. Thank you for what you gave to it.

I've cried a lot today, but I'll try my best to be happy and remember that your music will live forever.

My heart goes out to Cynthia, Yoko, Sean, Julian, Paul and Ringo...

People need to remember John and his message of peace, now more than ever. His music is in my heart forever, and even though he died long before my birth, he still inspires me every time I turn on his music.
The world has felt the pain of this loss for twenty-eight years.

Rest in peace, John, and I hope your dream lives on for many years to come.
<3

I watched a video last night that almost made me cry. It was somebody interviewing Paul McCartney about John's death. At the end, it played Beautiful Boy, which Paul started to sing softly with. He started crying. It made me sad deep inside.

We'll miss you, John.

It was written for Sean. At the very end of the song you can hear John saying things to Sean that I can't remember at the moment. He also sings "Darling, darling, darling Sean."
