Imagine – John Lennon
John Lennon released Imagine in 1971. He credits Yoko Ono for co-writing it. He said it “should be credited as a Lennon/Ono song. A lot of it – the lyric and the concept – came from Yoko, but in those days I was a bit more selfish, a bit more macho, and I sort of omitted her contribution.”
What A Wonderful World – Louis Armstrong
This was song was written by Bob Thiele under the name George Douglas. In the beginning, the 1967 Louis Armstrong song did not do so well in the states. It might have sold less than 1,000 copies there, but it was very popular in the United Kingdom. The song even reached number one on the Singles Chart!
