John Lennon‘s son, Sean Ono Lennon, opened up about some of his father’s solo songs. During an interview, he said his father might not have enjoyed the song “#9 Dream.” Notably, Sean compared the song to one of The Beatles’ most famous tunes.

During a 2020 interview with Rolling Stone, Sean discussed some of his favorite of John’s solo songs. He said “#9 Dream” was the best song on John’s album Walls and Bridges. Sean thought his father admitted he disliked the song. Sean wasn’t sure if he believed his father.

“‘#9 Dream’ is one of his best songs,” Sean opined. “I think he didn’t love it. Maybe because it wasn’t deep, heartfelt, raw emotion, and it wasn’t heavy-duty intellectual. It was a light song. But I think it’s gorgeous. As a composer, it’s a masterpiece.”
