Paul McCartney Compares Kanye West To John Lennon

Sean Ono Lennon will debut the Academy Award winning animated short War Is Over! on YouTube at 6pm on 1 December, with the premiere supporting War Child throughout the holiday season. The film, written by Sean with director Dave Mullins, uses the message of John Lennon and Yoko Ono's Happy Xmas (War Is Over) to frame a modern call for peace and protection for children impacted by conflict.

This Friday, November 21, The Beatles' Anthology 2025 collection arrives, offering fans a new way to experience the band's extraordinary history. Anthology 4, the latest volume, joins fully remastered editions of the original Volumes 1-3, now overseen by Giles Martin.

When John Lennon released Shaved Fish on 24 October 1975 in the UK, it marked the end of one era and the beginning of another. The album arrived just as Lennon withdrew from the public eye to focus on family life, following the birth of his son Sean Lennon earlier that same month. It was also the final record he would release on Apple Records before the label shut down, making Shaved Fish not just a greatest-hits compilation, but a symbolic farewell to a turbulent chapter in his solo journey.

On 26 September 2025, the John Lennon estate premiered a brand-new music video for Lennon and Yoko Ono's hard-hitting protest anthem “Sunday Bloody Sunday (Ultimate Mix)”, reintroducing one of the most controversial yet vital tracks from Lennon's New York era. The video arrives just weeks before the release of the expansive Power To The People (The Ultimate Collection) box set, due 10 October, and places renewed focus on Lennon's uncompromising political voice.

Paul McCartney launched his 2025 tour in Santa Barbara, California on Friday night (26 September 2025), treating fans to a historic moment with the return of The Beatles' classic Help! to his setlist for the first time since 1990.

When the John Lennon Estate announced the release of the Power To The People deluxe box set, much of the attention naturally went to the remastered tracks, rare recordings, and newly unearthed video content. But among the archival treasures is something far less conventional—a quirky, avant-garde experiment called Clock. Filmed by John Lennon in 1971 during the creation of Imagine, Clock is as much a window into Lennon’s restless creativity as it is a document of the day-to-day rhythm of his life with Yoko Ono.
