I really remember John Lennon’s Imagine. I guess I’m twelve; that’s one of my first albums. That really set fire to me. It was like he was whispering in your ear — his ideas of what’s possible. Different ways of seeing the world.
The song I want played at my funeral
John Lennon – ‘Imagine’
“I love The Beatles, but I’m obsessed with John Lennon. His view on life was such an inspiration to so many people. I was in New York last year when Yoko Ono set up this thing in Central Park to create the biggest peace sign in the world with humans. They shot it from above in a helicopter. I got a day off filming just so I could be a part of it. It was on what would have been John Lennon’s 75th birthday and they played ‘Imagine’ through loudspeakers. It was an incredible moment, so it would have to be that track.”
