Hello Everyone...

I went out on a limb and just began searching with the terms 'beatles cover'. Among teenagers filming themselves in front of a webcam, and a handful of well-known bands, I found this gem sung by Sean Lennon himself.

Sean is, of course, the son of John Lennon and Yoko Ono. He performs the song, Julia, in honor of his mother (who the song was written for originally by his father) While Yoko is the prominent subject in the song, it was also written with his mother, Julia in mind. The performance is pretty good, as Sean has his father's characteristic vocal patterns. Enjoy it! Even though it's written for and dedicated to Yoko Ono, (yuck) it's still a heck of a song!

Here's a fun fact: Lennon's godfather is Sir Elton John.
