Forget You John Lennon, and Your Lyrics Too

Something big, round and heavy fell with a clang in Times Square on New Year's Eve, and it wasn't the ball on the flagpole. Cee Lo Greensang a version of Imagine in which he changed John Lennon's lyric "and no religion, too" to "and all religion is true".

Outraged Lennon fans didn't need to use 132 of their Twitter characters to tell Cee Lo what they thought of him. On the other hand, perhaps they were just reminding him of his most infamous song title.

Among the New Year's Day tweets, I imagine there were one or two that said, in effect, don't you think you're taking postmodernism a bit far? To which Cee Lo responded: "Yo I meant no disrespect by changing the lyric guys! I was trying to say a world were u could believe what u wanted that's all."
