John Lennon would have been 70 today, had he not been shot to death by a very troubled man (no one seems to be able to agree as to whether his murderer was insane or not, but he remains safely imprisoned, having recently been denied parole for the sixth time).
I'm not a big fan of Lennon, or the Beatles, for that matter. I like, not love, their music. But you can't argue that his music didn't have an effect on an era, though. Of Lennon's songs, this is my favourite (and probably it's most other people's, too), not just because of the message, but the haunting music as well.
Google is celebrating with a video logo (the first it has done). Kudos for their creativity. Here is a screencast of the logo, the animation, and the music someone captured, also incorporating 'Imagine':
