John Lennon, a great artist who continues to influence many musicians even after his passing.

Needless to say, he was a member of the Beatles.

He created many timeless songs, but one I particularly recommend is One Day (At A Time).

This piece was inspired by religion and quotes lyrics from Matthew 6:34 in the New Testament.

It’s a wonderful track that lets you appreciate not only his musicality but also his ideas.
