MIND GAMES
We're playing those mind games together
Pushing the barriers, planting seeds
Playing the mind guerrilla
Chanting the mantra 'Peace On Earth'

We all been playing those mind games forever
Dome kinda druid dude lifting the veil
Doing the mind guerrilla
Some call it magic - the search for the grail

Love is the answer and you know that for sure
Love is a flower you got to let it, you got to let it grow

So keep on playing those mind games together
Faith in the future out of the now
You just can't beat on those mind guerillas
Absolute elsewhere in the stones of your mind
Yeah we're playing those mind games forever
Projecting our images in space and in time

'Yes' is the answer - and you know that for sure
Yes is surrender - you got to let it, you got to let it go

So keep on playing those mind games together
Doing the ritual dance in the sun
Millions of mind guerillas
Putting their Soul Power to the karmic wheel
Keep on playing those mind games forever
Raising the spirit of peace and love

Love

I want you to make love not war
I know you've heard it before
I want you to make love not war
I know you've heard it before

ABOUT THE FILM
On 15 November 1974, a BBC film crew for 'Old Grey Whistle Test', spent a day filming with John around Central Park and various other locations in New York, to make a video for the song "Whatever Gets You Thru The Night", directed by John. The video was never broadcast, but a small amount of the footage emerged as a very short edit for the song “#9 Dream” in February 1975.
In 2003, for the Lennon Legend DVD release, Yoko Ono purchased all the original camera film reels at auction, which were very aged and damaged from decay and scratching and, working with film editor Simon Hilton, cleaned them up and assembled this incredibly charismatic narrative of John, obviously greatly enjoying himself on a beautiful sunny autumnal day out in New York.

'That was a fun track because the voice is in stereo and the seeming orchestra on it is just me playing three notes with slide guitar. And the middle eight is reggae.'

MOTHER.
Mother
You had me

But I never left you
I needed you
You didn’t need me

So I
I just got to tell you
Goodbye
Goodbye

Don’t do
What I have done
I couldn’t walk
And I tried to run

So I
I just got to tell you
Goodbye
Goodbye

Produced by John & Yoko and Phil Spector.

The video explores layers in the meaning of the lyrics and performance of the song - telling the story of John’s relationships with mother and father figures, including fractured memories from his childhood and important moments in his life.

We see parental figures gone too soon and desperately missed: his mother Julia, father Alfred, his Aunt Mimi and Uncle George Smith who raised and housed him for most of his childhood and teens, and manager Brian Epstein.

We see John with his wife Yoko Ono Lennon (who he nicknamed ‘Mother’ after they became parents with Sean), we consider John as a father, with sons Julian Lennon and Sean Ono Lennon, and then explore themes of John absent, gone too soon, missed sorely by his wife, children, extended family and the world.

Produced by Yoko Ono Lennon, directed and edited by Simon Hilton with 3D compositing by David Frearson, the video was first created in 2003 for the DVD release: 'Lennon Legend: The Very Best of John Lennon' and includes photographs by Bob Gruen, Stanley Parkes, Geoff Rhind, Robert Freeman, Jack Mitchell, Iain Macmillan, Paul Goresh, Joyce Ravid and many others.
