He was really stupid not to have bodyguards. He was talking to lunatics and surely knew that one of them was going to get him

He was so positive and excited about the future. It’s heartbreaking toward the end of the tape when Yoko says, “Is the car downstairs?” They we’re off to the studio and before they got in the car John signed a copy of Double Fantasy for the creep who would kill him a few hours later. Can’t go back and prevent it from happening but it’s hard not to have those thoughts.

Thank you for uploading this timeless interview....surreal hearing him talk so much about life the very day it was to end...so insightful and of course, tragic and sad.

I lost my Dad a couple of months before this interview and was already depressed. Even more Gutted when I found out John Lennon had been shot dead. I never did like the 1980's and the real reason was having John taken from us in a unnecessary way. The Beatles greatest ever group in my opinion

I agree! It is so fun to listen to these interviews and so interesting to see how controversial he was, and for Peace. I heard the interview by Shaun Lennon with Elton John a couple of years ago on JL's 80th year, and it was moving. Elton John said he was sure that if he hadn't of been killed, he may have won the Nobel Peace Prize and it was something I never thought of but it sure makes a lot of sense. I don't ever really like to hear anything about his murderer, and I am a True Crime buff, but that one just makes me sick, such a bid for attention, and stealing of Lennon's brightness. I also appreciate ALL the music and The Beatles and what they each evolved to. I also watched Get Back, (got me the expensive Disney subscription just for it!) and was so moved at the part where John asks the others if they heard Martin Luther King Jr's speech and he said something like "it was sheer poetry" and he speaks of how beautiful it was and says something like MLK "could be president".

Going back to this every once and while is nice. John in conversation, in the middle of the day, sounding good, acting cool, and talking from the heart.

This is the first tape where Yoko is almost on equal footing and comes through as a full person, not just the woman who broke up the Beatles. My outrage and grief over both the violent death of John and then the violent attack on George that led to his relapse and his death is beyond words. It is a loss for the world that we lost them both when they had so much more life to live. "All you need is love" may sound like a simple lyric but in fact contains the answer to every single crisis on the planet. Love is all you need.

After this interview , he went downstairs to the street , where his car was suppose to be waiting for him , but it wasn’t there . He stood on the sidewalk when chapman approached him and asked him to sign his album . John signed it and asked chapman “ is that all you need “ , and chapman nodded his head yes . John and Yoko hitched a ride to the studio with these two interviewers , 5 hours later , they returned to the Dakota where chapman murdered Lennon . Haunting listening to this .

Hes telling his life before it ended. I was 9 i remember our music interruption on the radio with news of his shooting.

The ending was chilling, as he talks about liking to sign autographs for people

I've never cared either way about Lennon but after listening to this he seems like a down to earth guy. What a shame he was taken so early . God Bless

What a nice guy

Crying in pain.

It's so unsettling that while this interview was going on there's was a deranged coward waiting just outside to kill him.

Geraldo rivera , friend of John's , said that when john was in a room full of people he totally captivated them with his wit and intellect. He definitely would have been a force in the world for unjust causes.

Crazy how relevant a lot of what he said can even apply 40 years later. Very humble, intelligent, down to earth guy. And as he’s talking about being optimistic for the future, some asshole comes and shoots him… RIP Mr. Lennon

“We survived. We’re still here!” around the hour mark. Such a shame.

John's passion and intelligence makes everything he talks about seem interesting. He's so analytical in choosing his perceptions and opinions then excellent at expressing those things just like his song writing. The level of detail in which he takes in information then expresses it could explain why he is such an excellent artist. He's just an interesting person period

1:03:11, I don't think I ever heard John cry before. Not even tremble in his own voice with overfilled emotion. When he almost struggles to say how he didn't realize how much he needed her in his life, you can hear the overwhelming emotions of realization and love overcome him. That can't be just me, you can almost feel him most likely looking in Onos eyes after he declared that statement. Wow

@@jaycuthbert245 You check YOUR history. It's not hard. They did a photo shoot for Rolling Stone in the morning, then they went to THIS interview with Dave Sholin and Laurie Kaye then they completed Yokos Walking on Thin Ice then travelled home. If you have ½ a brain you can see that his last photo was in these clothes signing an autograph for the murderer.

@@jaycuthbert245 John Lennon’s last interview, taken on December 8, 1980 just few hours before his murder. John and Yoko were interviewed by Dave Sholin and Laurie Kaye. Ron Hummel and Bert Keane were also part of that team. John had just finished a photo session with Annie Leibovitz for Rolling Stone magazine.

Like is so fleeting. One day you’re here, and the next day, out of the blue, you’re not. Enjoy your life, folks.

Love in the beginning of this interview that John does Bert and Ernie since one of the guys name’s in the interview is Bert.

You just dive into that magical voice and into his Universe.

It's almost as if he is writing his epitaph squaring things up so to speak. Getting so much off his chest and answering old rumors before he ultimately runs out of time.....

Why there's no time machine?!! 😭

I think the same.

I've heard and I've read so many things about Yoko it's crazy that there was more than just office work downstairs that she was taken care of

My God…Only hours to live…

Love from Blackpool 🇬🇧

Like him or not, he was a genius.

How can some sad fool snuff out the sunshine in 3 short seconds.

John had moved on from the Beatles in his head he fell i love with yoko and started. A fresh life musically and personally so listening to this he’s open and honest especially about Julian so it’s a very sad knowing a dark shadow was waiting at the Dakota if only he went for that meal instead John thanque for the music

Crazy to think in just a few hours, John would not even know he ever existed at all.

Strange to think that he met his murderer earlier in the day and signed an autograph for him.
