John Lennon was an English musician, singer and songwriter who rose to
worldwide fame as a founder member of the Beatles, one of the most commercially
successful and critically acclaimed acts in the history of popular music.
Lennon revealed a rebellious nature and acerbic wit in his music, writing,
drawings, on film and in interviews. Controversial through his political and
peace activism, he moved to New York City in 1971, where his criticism of the
Vietnam War resulted in a lengthy attempt to deport him, while some of his songs
were adopted as anthems by the anti-war movement.
Lennon is responsible for 25 number-one singles on the US Hot 100 chart. In
2002, a BBC poll on the 100 Greatest Britons voted him eighth, and in 2008,
Rolling Stone ranked him the fifth-greatest singer of all time. He was
posthumously inducted into the Songwriters Hall of Fame in 1987 and into the
Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1994.
在The Beatles时期之后，Lennon成为了一名出色的独唱歌手，在此期间，他发行了"Give Peace a
Chance"和"Imagine"等著名歌曲。经过1976到1980年的短暂隐退，Lennon带着他的全新专辑复出。但是，一月之后，他于1980
年12月8日在纽约被伪装成歌迷的杀手枪杀。
