2016-09-20: PM mais pesquisado que JL (no RU)

Diz o Google. O que nada surpreende já que JL já morreu em 1980. Até surpreende a diferença ser tão pequena:

PS. Interessante a explicação do Billboard 200 e a lista de álbuns dos Beatles que estiveram no Top.

2016-09-09: Attica State, mais uma canção de protesto por Lennon

https://shadowproof.com/2016/09/06/protest-song-week-attica-state-lennon-ono/
Citando:
"Thirty-three prisoners and ten prison guards were killed because Governor Nelson Rockefeller would not meet with prisoners to discuss their demands for an end to brutality and slave labor. Instead, Rockefeller authorized the National Guard, police, and guards to use force. They opened fire on prisoners. Following the bullets, torture, beatings, and abuse were used to restore order.
The brutal end to the rebellion had a great impact on John Lennon. At his 31st birthday party at a Syracuse hotel about a month later, Lennon chanted lyrics that became the chorus: “Attica state, Attica state, we’re all mates with Attica state.”
The song became “Attica State,” and it was released on a widely panned album, “Some Time In New York City.”"
