*Today, December 8, is the anniversary of John Lennon’s assassination outside The Dakota in New York City. This post is in dedication of his memory.

The Beatles song “Being for the Benefit of Mr. Kite”, off of the Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band album, was inspired by a poster John Lennon came across. Most of the lyrics are actually taken straight from the poster itself!

“I had all the words staring me in the face one day when I was looking for a song… I hardly made up a word.” -John Lennon

“There are places I remember all my life, though some have changed. Some forever, not for better. Some have gone, and some remain. All these places have their moments.”
