John Lennon: Instant KarmaVH1
Song released 6 February 1970
Music Video
VHS
B
This recording, originally aired on Top of the Pops, shouldn't work, with its strange mix of dancing teens, a blindfolded Yoko holding up cue cards with concepts like "peace" and "hope," and Lennon (definitely not coming across as lip-synching) snarling his way through this catchy but bittersweet tune. But it does work and is perhaps more interesting now than at the time.
