Trent's Tracks: Through the Decades 5



Hello everyone, and welcome to day 5 of Trent’s Tracks: Through the Decades.

Over the course of five weeks (October 24th – November 27th), I will be exploring some of the finest music from each of the last five decades (yes, that’s a whole week for each decade) with a brand new song being added to the list every single day. By the end of the five weeks, there will be 35 songs on the list for you to enjoy from throughout the last 46 years.

We are down to the last three tracks from the 1970s now, and I promise you they are three absolute crackers!

John Lennon is one of the most well-known artists ever, mainly down to the huge success he had as part of the Beatles, the biggest selling group of all time. However, after their split in 1971, he went on to have an incredibly successful career as a soloist as well.

This song was recorded and released by John Lennon in the early 1970s, even though it didn’t actually reach number one in the UK until January 1981, weeks after his shock murder in December 1980. It has ended up becoming his bestselling single, and it’s easy to see why. Its simple message of peace, and a world where all people are equal, is something which resonates with so many people, myself included.

Track number 5 of our look at the 1970s is Imagine by John Lennon, and I think you’ll agree that this just shows off what a talent he truly was.
