Well, you can understand Lennon. They're both rather purile, but Dillon had a cause. Sometimes.

Better song writer Lennon.
Better poet Dylan.

Just listen to the music they produced and it's obvious.

I'm a Beatles fan, but Lennon was a hack compared to Dylan. Lennon would probably say the same, if he could.

You can't compare apples and oranges. They are both great; different types of music. Instant Karma is going to get you

Considering Bob Dylan ripped off many of his works from old folk songs --John Lennon is the clear winner.

Impossible question!

Song = music + lyrics

John Lennon = supreme music + great lyrics

Bob Dylan = supreme lyrics + great music

I prefer John Lennon to almost everyone.

Curt Cobain believed the same thing John Lennon believed - MUSIC FIRST - lyrics second

Ready for another shock? You're wrong. It really was written by John Lennon. It was produced by Phil Spector, who is facing a second degree murder charge right now.

Its just some of those false rumors thats been spread around for years. Even though wikipedia isn't the must trustworthy source, they got it right: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Imagine_%28song%29. Yoko claims part of it, but thats not surprising.

I'm glad someone set the record straight.
(If you hadn't I would have.)


I agree with this...

So you looked it up on wikipedia and believed it. Thats okay because I guess I believed some "news" show that it wasn't. Its a great song. I guess it really doesn't matter ... they both have something nobody can touch today. I'd love to see the John Lennon Yoko reality show .... zzzzz

I've never heard the rumor that Image was written by someone else. Who did they say really wrote it... not that I believe a word of it though.
