John Lennon: The Top 3 Songs Written For The Former Beatle After His Tragic Death
Unbelievably,Today will mark 39 years since former Beatle John Lennon was gunned down in front of his home at The Dakota in New York City. Lennon loved Manhattan and felt free there, free enough to not carry security detail or to put any kind of buffer between himself and the public.
Lennon was killed late in the day, so late that many didn’t learn of his death until the next morning. For weeks afterward, radio stations endlessly played his music.
Also after his death came quite a few songs written in tribute to Lennon.
Here are three of the best tribute songs. These are ‘the best’ because each of the composers/performers knew Lennon well and it shows in each song.
