This list is pathetic. You accuse Lennon of putting forward only a positive image of himself and ignoring the negative, and then do the exact opposite here. Most of your negatives about him are things he himself discussed in press interviews– he was deeply aware of his shortcomings. It was key to his popularity. He even put many in song, such as “I used to be cruel to my woman/I beat her and kept her apart from the things that she loved” (from that album he had almost nothing to do with– you know the one that also includes “A Day In the Life” and “Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds”–yet you present this as a revelation. And he was lacking in talent!?!

Envy much?
