I was outside today, listening to my John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band CD, when my boyfriend and his friend and his friend's girlfriend (did you get that? lol) pulled up. The girl asked me who I was listening to, so I said John Lennon. Then she asked me something that amazed me...."And who is that?"
At first I thought she was joking. However, it turns out she wasn't. I told her that he was a Beatle. She then asked "That's an older band, isn't it?"....my goodness! I was just sort of shocked. I then went into the house and got my copy of the White Album. I gave it to her to listen to...I told her to listen and learn. Then I asked her if she knew who Elvis was (jokingly)...lol
Are there really a lot of people out there that do not know who John Lennon is? Or, was she just one in a million? I know a lot of the younger generation (which is me...I'm only 18) listens to nothing but mainstream rap and pop, but to not know who John Lennon is? That's just astounding...
