Original subtitles

(Man ) 'This one for now?'

(John ) 'Plug him in for now, we can use the same amp.

'One, two... One, two, three, four...'

(Yoko ) 'It was Ascot, England, early summer.

'And we just kinda said, "OK, why not? Let's do it."

'And we invited some friends and had breakfast,

'and went right into the studio.

'So it was like home cooking,

'and that's how "Imagine" was made.

'But we didn't know it was gonna be that big.'

OK.

Hello? Hello?

Hello? Mine are working.

(John ) Maybe we should just do "Imagine", then?

What's this, a ballad?

Yeah, come on. I'll teach you it.

# Imagine no possessions

# I wonder if you can

# No need for greed or hunger

# A brotherhood of man

# Imagine all the people

# Sharing all the world

# Yoo-hoo-oo

# You may say I'm a dreamer

# But I'm not the only one

# I hope some day you will join us

# And the world will be as one #

- Yeah, that's nice. - Yeah.

That's the one I like.

It needs another piano an octave higher or something.

(John ) We can use this. (Man ) Do it on one.

(Yoko ) It's delicate. (John ) On the top half, maybe?

(Man ) Get a mike through. (Yoko ) That's it.

(John ) Yeah. (Man ) Yeah!

Well, I'll go on the white one.

(Man ) Yeah. (John ) Yeah.

# Imagine there's no heaven

# It's easy if you try

# No hell below us

# Above us only sky

# Imagine all the people

# Living for today

# Ahh-haa-aa

# Imagine no possessions... #

Play it over your rhythm.

- It'd be better if he played... - We're not getting any...

..either a piano underneath. It should be just a piano song.

# A brotherhood of man... #

When we wind the tape back to him it gets all the drone.

# ..the people

# Sharing all the world

# Yoo-hoo-oo

# You may say I'm a dreamer

# But I'm not the only one... #

What?

(Yoko ) Higher sound on the piano.

(John ) My piano? (Yoko ) No, not your piano.

(John ) Yeah, try Nicky playing an octave above me.

'Cause we haven't had one with just pianos.

We can try you playing an octave higher,

playing the same as me almost.

I might be daft because I change...

Sometimes go "doo-doo-do-doo".

He shouldn't do the same, when you go...

You know, like complementary...

Because it sounds daft now, really...

..we're beginning all the time and the bass is too trebly.

(Man ) I thought it was better when there were no drums at all.

- Let's hear it again. - Sounds nice, just piano.

If you use drums the ticky-tack on the high-hat has to be in,

because the jerkiness of just that little...

Let's hear the bass, go and play bass, 'cause that...

it sounds like Bert Kaempfert...

(John ) We'll try it with just me and Nick on piano,

and then they come in on F for the middle eight.

Really "whoow"...

(John ) That's better. (Man ) You got it.

# Imagine there's no heaven #

Yoko, go and listen instead of being here.

(John ) Oh, I see.

Yeah.

Yeah, OK, well, I'll just do it and track it myself, same key.

(Engineer) 'Same register.'

Yeah, right, right.

OK, let's go, then.

I wish they'd told us before.

(Comedy voice ) And the world will be as one!

It's all we have to do, ladies and gentlemen.

You see?

Because they've only taken an hour

to tell us the noise is spreading in this room.

- It's not the final version... - Ahh...

No, but in the back there'll be a profile. "Imagine".

(Man ) Ahh, "Imagine". That's brilliant...

(Yoko ) And the back is gonna be eyes with two sunsets in.

(John ) And inside is a... (Yoko ) Inside there's like

(Yoko ) ..four or five Johns... (John ) Figures getting bigger,

from childhood to full size.

(Man ) Very good.

I've just seen the words of "Imagine",

which are very, very good.

(John ) I'm glad you like it. (Yoko ) See the other lyrics.

(John ) Three were written this year.

The rest I'd written before. I just polished them off.

There's one called "Crippled Inside".

(John ) I'll play it later. (Yoko ) "How" is good...

(John ) A nice little twister.

Very corny country and western,

# You can go to church and sing a hymn

# Judge me by the colour of my skin

# You can live a lie until you die

# One thing you can't hide

# Is when you're crippled inside

# You can shine your shoes and wear a suit

# You can comb your hair and look quite cute

# You can hide your face behind a smile

# One thing you can't hide

# Is when you're crippled inside

# You can wear a mask and paint your face

# You can call yourself the human race

# You can wear a collar and a tie

# One thing you can't hide

# Is when you're crippled inside

# Well, now, you know that your cat has nine lives

# Nine lives to itself

# But you only got one

# And a dog's life ain't fun

# Mama, take a look outside

# You can go to church and sing a hymn

# You can judge me by the colour of my skin

# You can live a lie until you die

# One thing you can't hide

# Is when you're crippled inside... #

Take it, cousin!

# You can go to church and sing a hymn

# Judge men by the colour of their skin

# You can live a lie until you die

# One thing you can't hide

# Is when you're crippled inside

# One thing you can't hide

# Is when you're crippled inside

# One thing you can't hide

# Is when you're crippled inside #

And a little heart there and that'll be it.

# I don't know why I love you but I do #

(Yoko ) I don't like other people doing personal things

like this for John, so I still do it.

She's a lovely mother to me, a lovely mother.

I don't know what I'd do without her, you know?

So, which way, John? This way?

No, it would come like that, wouldn't it?

No, like...like that. It's like that.

All right, all right. That's it.

# Oh, Yoko

# In the middle... #

That's the "middle of the night" verse.

We want the one about clouds.

(Yoko ) You can take your time but give them the right one, OK?

(Man ) OK? (2nd Man ) All right.

# In the middle of a cloud

# In the middle of a cloud I call your name

# Oh, Yoko... #

You're giving us "in the night" instead of "clouds".

(Yoko ) That's not the one... (Man ) Harmony, right?

- Do it in harmony. - (Yoko ) Let me explain...

What's the matter, Philip? It's the last fucking verse!

(Yoko ) "In the middle of a cloud I call your name, oh, Yoko..."

We stopped here once, not that one, the one afterwards.

"All new and free". "In the middle of a cloud", after that.

# In the middle of a cloud

# In the middle of a cloud I call your name #

The end of the song is just like the fucking rest.

We're gonna sing the harmonies to "Oh, Yoko". Come on!

# Oh, Yoko

# In the middle of a cloud #

This is the wrong one.

# In the middle of a cloud I call your name

# Oh, Yoko #

(Yoko ) Why don't you just relax until we say OK?

- What's the matter? - We're not hearing you.

Otherwise we'd be singing, wouldn't we?

# In the middle of a cloud

# In the middle of a cloud I call your name

# Oh, Yoko # (Music stops )

Sorry, I sang the melody.

(Yoko ) Phil, don't be afraid, sing into the mic! "Oh, Yoko!"

(John ) That's it.

(Yoko ) Make sure about your sound and just sing loud, OK?

Why don't... John, you just sing it for him once. "Oh, Yoko!"

# Oh, Yoko

# Oh, Yo,

# Oh, Yo-oko

# Oh, Yoko #

- Beautiful. - Great, isn't it?

It does show something.

I wanted this to be around here, that's what I was trying to do.

# In the middle of the night #

Yoko! Yoko!

# In the middle of the night I call your name

# Oh, Yoko #

(John ) Yoko!

# Oh, Yoko #

John!

# My love will turn you on #

Yoko!

# In the middle of a bath #

(Yoko ) John! (John ) Yoko!

# In the middle of a bath I call your name #

(John ) Yoko!

# Oh, Yoko #

(John ) Yoko!

# Oh, Yoko

# My love will turn you on #

Yoko!

# My love

# Will

# Turn

# You

# On

# In the middle of a shave #

Look at this, John!

# In the middle of a shave I call your name

# Oh, Yoko #

John!

# Oh, Yoko

# My love will turn you on

# In the middle of a cloud

# In the middle of a cloud I call your name

# Oh, Yoko

# Oh, Yoko

# My love will turn you on

# Oh, Yoko

# Oh, Yoko

# Oh, Yoko #

Do you think there are new attitudes

towards love and relationships?

Are we getting away

from the property concept of relationships?

Of owning the other person?

I think, yeah, we could be, but...

That's all very well, intellectually,

but when you are in love with somebody,

you tend to be jealous and want to possess them 100%. I do.

Intellectually, before that,

I thought that owning the person is rubbish.

But I love Yoko. I wanna possess her completely.

I don't wanna stifle her.

The danger is that you wanna possess them to death.

# I was dreaming of the past

# And my heart was beating fast

# I began to lose control

# I began to lose control

# I didn't mean to hurt you

# I'm sorry that I made you cry

# Oh, no

# I didn't want to hurt you

# I'm just a jealous guy

# I was feeling insecure

# You might not love me any more

# I was shivering inside

# I was shivering inside

# I didn't mean to hurt you

# I'm sorry that I made you cry

# Oh, no

# I didn't want to hurt you

# I'm just a jealous guy

# I didn't mean to hurt you

# I'm sorry that I made you cry

# Oh, no

# I didn't want to hurt you

# I'm just a jealous guy

# I was trying to catch your eye

# Thought that you was trying to hide

# I was swallowing my pain

# I was swallowing my pain

# I didn't mean to hurt you

# I'm sorry that I made you cry

# Oh, no

# I didn't want to hurt you

# I'm just a jealous guy

# I'm just a jealous guy

# I'm just a jealous guy #

(Man ) Great.

You lying git!

(John ) It's great working with you, Phil. Really great.

I've worked with some cats in my time.

I wanna say it's really great.

Sincerely, working with you is great.

- OK. - (Man ) Next tune.

# You gotta live

# You gotta love

# You gotta be somebody

# You gotta shove

# But it's so hard

# It's really hard

# Sometimes I feel like going down

# You gotta eat

# You gotta drink

# You gotta feel something

# You gotta worry

# But it's so hard

# It's really hard

# Sometimes you feel like going down

# When it's good

# It's really good

# And when I hold you in my arms, baby

# Sometimes I feel like going down

# You gotta run

# You gotta hide

# You gotta keep your woman

# Satisfied

# But it's so hard

# It's really hard

# Sometimes I feel like going down #

(John ) It'd be hard to sing again without, wouldn't it?

We didn't sing any of the same words though.

I sang almost the real words.

That's why they're on the lyric sheet, so they can read them.

With Paul's album, there's no lyrics and you can't hear him.

- Who wants Paul's album? - For example, I mean.

# Macht Liebe, nicht Krieg #

- Liebe Macht. - Macht Liebe, nicht Krieg.

Make love, not war.

And what was the French one?

Er... Fait l'amour, pas le guerre.

Is this just your French or...?

- (Yoko ) I check it. - Check it with...

(Yoko ) It sounds pretty much...

But I don't want to come on saying "Not love, you war".

- Fait l'amour... - Macht Liebe?

- (Man ) Macht Liebe unt Stollem. - Nicht...nicht what?

- Krieg. - K-R-I-E-G?

No, no, no. Macht Liebe, nicht Krieg.

(George ) It's not every day I get to do a press conference.

I might decide to say nothing.

Shall we listen to the tape or just get on?

Let's go. George, you coming? Come on, gang.

(Man ) A typical life in the day of John Lennon.

# Well

# I don't wanna be a soldier, momma

# I don't wanna die

# Well

# I don't wanna be a sailor, momma

# I don't wanna fly

# Well

# I don't wanna be a failure, momma

# I don't wanna cry... #

(John ) 'War is, I think, the most...

'The thing we should be talking about is the violence

'in society, not just in Vietnam but in England,

'or Northern Ireland, which is part of Britain,'

that's a far more important subject

than...where's your hemline

and did you sleep with somebody when you were 15 or 16?

I think humans tend to talk about rubbish

'cause they don't wanna face reality.

# All I want is the truth

# Just gimme some truth

# No short-haired yellow-bellied... #

I'm doing Eddie Cochran, it doesn't last long.

(Comedy voice ) Cut across Shorty, Shorty cut across.

# ..Is the truth

# Just gimme some truth

# No short-haired, yellow-bellied

# Son of Trick... #

Come on, you cunts!

What did you stop for?

(Man ) Where's Eddie Veal?.

Eddie Veal!

- Get him up here. - Pissed again!

Or we'll have veal fucking stroganoff.

I always whisper to them.

(PA) Don't sing it Eddie Cochran way yet, just sing.

OK.

# ..Want is the truth

# Just gimme some truth

# I've had enough of reading things

# By neurotic, psychotic pig-headed, politicians

# All I want is the truth

# Just gimme some truth

# No short-haired, yellow-bellied

# Son of Tricky Dick

# Is gonna Mother Hubberd soft soap me

# For just a pocketful of soap

# Money for dope

# Money for rope

# Whoo-hoo!

# I'm sick to death of seeing things

# From tight-lipped, condescending

# Momma's little chauvinists

# All I want is the truth

# Just gimme some truth now

# I've had enough of watching scenes

# With schizophrenic, egocentric

# Paranoid prima donnas

# All I want is the truth now, now

# Just gimme some truth

# No short-haired, yellow-bellied

# Son of Tricky Dick

# Is gonna Mother Hubberd soft soap me

# For just a pocketful of soap

# It's money for dope

# Money for rope

# I'm sick to death of hearing things

# From uptight, short-sighted, narrow-minded hypocrites

# All I want is the truth now

# Just gimme some truth now

# I've had enough of reading things

# By neurotic, psychotic, pig-headed politicians

# All I want is the truth now

# Just gimme some truth now

# All I want is the truth now

# Just gimme some truth now

# All I want is the truth

# Just gimme some truth

# All I want is the truth

# Just gimme some truth

# All I want is the truth

# Just gimme some truth

# All I want is the truth

# Just gimme some truth #

Ah, this is the truth.

All right?

(Comedy voice ) # All I want is the truth - come on!

# Just give me some truth - come on... #

It won't sound the same because the other night was on slide.

(Yoko ) That one is quieter. (John ) I don't...

- It may be too jangly. - Yeah.

(John ) What should we do, then?

Artistic representative?

Just the four of you. Where's Alan and...?

(John ) Shall we have drums?

- You can try... - (John ) Something different...

It's getting a bit the same.

(George ) It sounds to me like one where he would have had

the guitarist playing rhythm if you want it like...

(John ) Well, maybe one'd do? (Yoko ) Another piano?

(John ) Maybe that organ thing we were trying to do last night?

# Oh, my lover, for the first time in my life

# My eyes are wide open

# Oh, my lover, for the first time in my life #

I don't know who said that sex and love had to go together.

I've enjoyed love without sex and sex without love,

and they quite often come together but just...

(Laughs ) Very good,

but quite often they don't.

(Yoko ) So what is love, then?

I think love is something to do with relaxation, you know?

When you're guarded with somebody you're not relaxed,

and when you're guarded with somebody, you can't love them.

Love is when you understand it so well that you relax finally.

And we have that relaxation between us a lot.

# My eyes can see

# I see the wind

# Oh, I see the trees

# Everything is clear in my heart

# I see the clouds

# Oh, I see the sky

# Everything is clear in my world #

Fucking hell, what's that, Nick?

Don't change reels in the middle of a fucking take!

(Man ) Here we go.

(John ) One, two, three, four.

# Oh, my love, for the first time in my life

# My eyes are wide open

# Oh, my lover, for the first time in my life

# My eyes can see

# I see the wind

# Oh, I see the trees

# Everything is clear in my heart

# I see the clouds

# Oh, I see the sky

# Everything is clear in our world

# Oh, my lover, for the first time in my life

# My mind is wide open

# Oh, my lover, for the first time in my life

# My mind can feel

# I feel the sorrow

# Oh, I feel the dreams

# Everything is clear in my heart

# I feel life

# Oh, I feel love

# Everything is clear in our world #

I think we shouldn't ring off when George does his...

- Stop the bass? - Yeah.

So we'll ring off then?

- (Man ) Ring off? - Ring off.

(George ) Do you see much of The Beatles?

The Beatles? No, I did see Beat Ed recently.

He's doing quite well in Sweden, I believe, number five.

(George ) Yeah, I heard that, too.

Yoko, is that a fresh pot of tea?

- Yes. - Can I have some?

This is a Beatle wife fixing tea for the Fab Four.

- Ex-Beatles. - Fab Three.

- Fab Three, yeah, sorry. - This is my wife.

Yeah, I'm Beatle wife number three.

I see Beatle Phil making a pig of himself.

(John ) He likes his... whatever it's called.

(Yoko ) You like chemical stuff, George.

(George ) It isn't chemical. (Yoko ) What is it?

Pure sugar from the mouth of Mr Tate himself from Liverpool.

- You like something else? - No.

(Barks ) Just like the old days.

Yeah. (Growls)

# You better see right through that mother's eyes

# Those freaks was right when they said you was dead

# The one mistake you made was in your head

# How do you sleep now? #

Yeah.

- That's it. - There's no jumping beat.

No, I only did one of them.

(John ) That's the nasty one.

- You can rise, gentlemen. - Here, Philip.

Hello, Phil.

Welcome to Hollywood.

# You better look right through that mother's eyes

# How do you sleep at night? #

A Minor.

Yeah, well, OK.

That's vaguely how it is.

Let's get on the electric piano and...

- He's bringing another one in. - The Fender?

(John ) I'd like electric piano, like "The Thrill Is Gone" sound.

# But pretty soon

# They'll see what you can do

# Ba-ba-ba-ba blong... #

(John ) And down to the down...down...

When it gets to the D bit, let's change the rhythm slightly.

I always envisaged some kind of a bit reggae, I don't know what.

But something that...

# How do you sleep at night? #

You know, something more jumpy there.

I don't know whether it's an actual change.

(Man ) John, does that include straight piano?

(John ) What? (Man ) Straight piano.

Should both pianos do it, too?

OK, well, everybody do it, then.

- In Japanese there's... - "I want you to..."

(Both talk Japanese )

- But it's too long. - No, I know.

In Japanese, you've heard it before, it's wrong in Japanese.

- Instead of that... - Everyone says that.

(Yoko ) The thing is you can't say it in one line, it's very...

I'll try it.

(John ) OK, from the top.

Hit the G on the way down to F.

One, two... one, two, three, four.

# So Sergeant Pepper took you by surprise

# You better see right through that mother's eyes

# Those freaks was right when they said you was dead

# The big mistake you made was in your head

# Oh

# How do you sleep at night?

# Oh

# How do you sleep at night?

# Oh

# How do you sleep, you cunt? #

OK, stop, stop. This guitar is crippling. I can't play it.

- Too free? - Mmm.

- All that and... - All what?

They don't get what you were playing.

(John ) What? (Man ) ..If it's not needed...

(Man ) I can see the...band... (John ) Which feeling exactly?

Just that tight and clean, just funky...it's not funky.

So what's going on? Tell me.

- They're improvising too much. - Stop improvising

and just keep it solid.

"Tan ta-ta tan, ta-ta tan", you know.

- I want it really tight. - OK, great.

You've got to think it's nasty. It's a nasty song.

I don't want it swinging.

Just "duh-duh-duh".

# A pretty face may last a year or two

# But pretty soon you'll see what you can do

# The sound you make is musax to my ears

# You must have learned SOMETHING in all those years

# Oh #

OK, OK.

Should we listen to what we're doing?

(George ) I wouldn't mind. (John ) What?

- I wouldn't mind hearing it. - Yeah, OK.

Don't confuse the songs with your own life.

They might have relevance to it, but a lot of things do.

So we met. I'm just a guy, man, who writes songs.

We can only say hello. What else is there?

Yeah, I figured if we met I'd know, just by reading them.

But, know what?

If what I was thinking was true.

What... Is it true?

- I guess not. - Right! I'm just a guy.

But it all fits, you know?

(John ) Anything fits. If you're on some trip, anything fits.

You know, like, when you were saying,

"Boy, you're gonna carry that weight for a long time"...?

(John ) Paul sang that, but he's singing about all of us,

we carry it till we die, don't we?

You weren't thinking of anyone in particular when you sang it?

How could I be thinking of you?

Well, maybe not me, but it's all somebody.

I think about me, or at best Yoko, if it's a love song.

But I'm singing about me, how I had a good shit today,

and what I thought this morning, you know,

and I love Yoko or whatever, it's my life.

If it's relevant to other people that's all right...

(John ) Are you hungry?

- Hmm? - Yeah.

Let's give him something to eat.

# How can I go forward

# When I don't know which way to turn?

# How can I go forward

# Into something I'm not sure of?

# Oh, no

# Oh, no

# How can I have feeling

# When I don't know if it's a feeling?

# How can I feel something

# If I just don't know how to feel?.

# How can I have feelings

# When my feelings have always been denied?

# Oh, no

# Oh, no

# You know life can be long

# And you got to be so strong

# And the world is so tough

# Sometimes I feel I've had enough

# How can I give love

# When I don't know what it is I'm giving?

# How can I give love

# When I just don't know how to give?

# How can I give love

# When love is something I ain't never had?

# Oh, no

# Oh, no

# You know life can be long

# And you got to be so strong

# And the world she is tough

# Sometimes I feel I've had enough

# How can we go forward

# When we don't know which way we're facing?

# How can we go forward

# When we don't know which way to turn?

# How can we go forward

# Into something we're not sure of?

# Oh, no

# Oh, no

# Oh, no #

I lose a little rhythm.

(Man ) We have the opening,

but you lose the first bridge and last "how can we..."

(John ) I see.

(Man ) On the original you made too many "how can we" ...

I never finished the tail-end of "turn".

So they should tail over the break, you see.

(John ) But I ain't gonna fight ya.

(Yoko ) See what we mean? (John ) I see what you mean.

There's two of you, I'll lose. That's what it means.

(John ) This is a delicate moment of choice here,

deciding whether to use the old voice or the new voice.

(Playback) 'Two, three, four.'

# How can I go forward

# When I don't know which way I'm facing?

# How can I go forwards

# When I don't know which way to turn?

# How can I go forwards

# Into something I'm not sure of? #

I think we'll paint it all.

Looks like an old one, too.

It needn't be Japanese, it's just the right size.

We'll have this. Isn't it beautiful?.

(Man ) It's perfect, isn't it?

Isn't it nice?

Just on the island.

- (Man ) It's really lovely. - Great.

- Come on! - He can't run!

We want it sort of underneath this tree.

About here, Yoko, don't you think? Facing down there.

- (Yoko ) Yeah. - A bit nearer the edge.

(John ) About here?

With the wall next to the tree.

John, that should be the back...of the house.

- So it should be almost here? - Yah. Right, right, right.

(John ) Can we get windows on the back later?

- I don't see why not. - OK. We'll change it later.

- Then we can see out both ways. - Hi!

- Who's that? - Julian.

(Yoko ) Julian! (John ) How long?

They're building the house! Can you hear me?

Can you hear me?

(Yoko ) Just relax and think of clouds and things like that.

It comes on the face.

# Imagine there's no heaven

# It's easy if you try
