Today, to celebrate John Lennon's 84th birthday and to pass on his life and message to the current generation, Shigeru Suzuki X Gens Mondo, the sixth installment of John Lennon In My Mind, a project to reissue the West Coast sound of the 1960s and 1970s, has invited former Happy End guitarist Shigeru Suzuki to join the project. The music video with scenes recorded by Shigeru Suzuki, former guitarist of Happiendo, will be shown for the first time.

If John Lennon had appeared in this day and age, he would probably have delivered a message in the manner of John, sung a softer version of Imagine or a fiercer version of Revolution, and shown up at festivals and events in Japan and raised his fist in the air...we are reminded of John Lennon, who is now 84 years old. The announcement will be made at 6:30 p.m. local time on the day of his 84th birthday.

Comments
(DJ Sayuri Yamamoto)
For an honest melody that lingers in the ear,
The lyrics are full of compassion and tenderness that anyone can relate to.
It resonates with the heart.
It will stay in your ears forever.

Live to be happy...,
the ultimate prayer of human nature,
more than 50 years later,
John is
Imagine, and he is still connecting us to it.
It is a song that makes you
This song makes me realize that.

It is exactly like the song
He is always in my mind
He is always in my heart

He made his debut in 1977 with TROIS, a hidden treasure of Japanese folk rock that has yet to be discovered in the midst of the global city pop boom, and released a masterpiece of Japanese boogie/Japanese disco, Ai no corrida (Japanese version) under the name Big Bang in the early 1980s. Singer-songwriter Jomon Do.
He has been active not only in music but also in playwriting, musicals, publishing, and other wide-ranging activities.
The song John Lennon In My Mind, which he sang himself, is a superb pop song featuring the guitar of Shigeru Suzuki, formerly of Happi Nippon.
