I hear you and it surprises me too but I've learnt there will always be haters. But that has to do with the relationship they have with themselves and not with the one they're dissing. In any case, they bring attention to more people to love this brilliant artist . ❤️❤️❤️❤️

+fatboyblue269 : ) Indeed it "is" a most noteworthy tribute to a musical icon....poetic justice indeed. As a former artist whose own dreams were "deferred" I very much appreciate KZitem for the platform it extends to us all..in a world filled with so much pain what would we be if we could not sing? imagine? ...makes me think of "all" the legends that have come and are now gone.. 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...#LENNON GOD is most merciful in that he embedded in us love..if there's no love in you then I don't believe there can "be" songs to channel...the true story of my life overflowing with "so" many different songs... if heaven was a mile away I wonder if we'd still be able to hear the gospel of all these lost soul's...

+robertantonnyc I Believe you did first Brother : ) he definitely took it there...it was #CHURRCH! #FACTS....the way it seems as if he just "slides" from one song to the next...I'm STILL sangin along.. "but all I can do is just offer you my love"....he picked the all the right songs to sing 2 ....it's crazy these are most of the songs I kept playing over and over prior to even hearing "L.Young" cover them today...they all brought back memories bittersweet...timeless this music will always be, and this tribute will always be my favorite...instead of mankind dropping "bombs" on each other, it should be mandatory that we "all" had a song to express ourselves....maybe then there'd be a "feasible" or "tangible" hope for humanity...we have "lost" our way within ourselves...now it feels as if little by little we are loosing the very ones who kept this "cold world" turning for longer than it sometimes seems necessary...I don't mean to be a "rainy cloud" or anything it just doesn't feel like there's much more of us leading us to be "greater than" we have been of late...it's like everywhere you look nowadays..the blind leading the blind, and those with ears are deaf and without any understanding...How long ago did #BOBMARLEY "RIP" cry out "his" own Redemption Song? There aren't many "soulful" and or selfless artists today getting the platforms that allow them to exercise their gifts/talents in ways that could and would be detrimental to humanity that's why it bothers me soo...everytime I hear we've lost another great..."sighs" for My Generation Tupac sparked it now we have no more James Browns, Bob Marleys, No Lennons Michaels, no Prince's to keep "THAT" revolutionary hope alive no Whitneys, or Amy Winehouses to remind us all of the war that should have been "fought" tirelessly drugs instead of the poor and "already" oppressed ...if people touching people in good ways via (music) "is" in fact a gift GOD given than any and EVERYTHING else we are being force fed through mainstream media outlets that has in past and will in future be CRUCIAL in our ability to "move" forward successfully as 1 whole people striving for the better should be unanimously deemed as unworthy of attention... (in my world of course ; ) I apologize ...maybe I need to get off this cloud before I bum everyone out.. it is just the humanitarian in me that unfortunately can't help but be wary (inhales/exhales)
