    I grew up with the Beatles as my soundtrack and I remember where I was on the day he died.

    Although I know all of these songs, I listened to them all again, with a lot of wonder and joy.
    John was my fave, and it was a notable day when he was assassinated.
    Thank you! Music is definitely part of the measure of my life.

    I still remember that day myself. One of the things that stuck in my mind was this guy who read about it and immediately put a gun on his head saying “no… I won’t have this”. And he just pulled the trigger. I found it absolutely absurd and at the same time absolutely heartbreaking .
    Thanks a lot!
