Olympic Ceremonies: Imagine

John Lennon - IMAGINE at the London 2012 Olympic Games closing ceremony. from Yoko Ono on Vimeo.

Last night's Olympic Ceremonies were hands down one of the most elaborate and well executed we have yet seen. One of the top moments of the night has to be footage of John Lennon singing "Imagine" on the big screen as a choir from his home city of Liverpool sang onstage alongside it. The remastered video was brought from the archives of Lennon's widow Yoko Ono, who wanted his legacy to live on, and did it ever. We even got a bit emotional...yes real men have feelings too.
