WAR IS OVER! Inspired by the Music of John & Yoko The Academy Award® Winning Animated Short Film WATCH NOW on YouTube Join us & help raise donations for @WarchildUK. #warisover
Sean Ono Lennon says: In 2023, I worked with Dave Mullins and Brad Booker on an animated short film called WAR IS OVER! – about a heroic wartime carrier pigeon delivering messages across the battlefield between two chess-playing soldiers – which I”m delighted to say, won the Academy Award® for Best Animated Short. We would be honoured if you would help us spread the word about the film and John & Yoko’s timeless message – that ‘War is over if you want it’.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING! 28 November 1974 marked an incredible moment in musical history as John Lennon walked onstage at Madison Square Garde to join @EltonJohn to perform their single, ‘Whatever Gets You Thru The Night’. The concert would be Lennon’s last major concert appearance, and the result of a bet Elton made John - that the song would top the Billboard Hot 100 chart - John reluctantly agreeing that if it did he would make a surprise appearance. Photos from that evening show the electric atmosphere on stage (and even feature Elton’s lyricist Bernie Taupin on stage with the duo, a rare occurrence!) Also featured here are photos of Elton and John in rehearsals at the Record Plant recording studio in NYC two days before the concert; traveling on Elton’s private plane, the Starship 1 and backstage at Madison Square Garden.

In this scene from their 1972 feature film Imagine, John and Yoko perform Yoko’s conceptual artwork Play It By Trust (aka White Chess Set), 1966. On the wall behind them hangs John’s artwork You Are Here, 1968. Yoko wears rings she bought while shopping in New York with her friend Andy Warhol. The accompanying soundtrack is Yoko’s Don’t Count the Waves, from her 1971 album Fly. The couple were filmed inside a small white hut on an island in the lake at their home, Tittenhurst Park, Ascot, England, on 20 July 1971. Play It By Trust was first exhibited in Yoko’s Unfinished Paintings & Objects show at Indica Gallery, London, in November 1966.
