John Lennon?s ?Give Me Some Truth? ? a song that was even playing in a (sleep) dream, Described as follows: The song played in what appeared like a theatrical performance taking place in an urban parking-lot, with a brick building in the background. One solo performer was miming behind an approx. six-foot tall and ten-foot wide three-sided semi-opaque glass-window prop.
With ?Give Me Some Truth? playing in stereo, the solo-male performer dressed like a mime was holding a thick black-book (about 12 by 18 inches in size). The performer proceeded to open the book to selected pages, and pressed the open pages (with large-print font words per page) against the glass. It appeared that there were a few people watching the performance.
While our performer continues to mime his way, and display several different pages, the view through the glass goes from a semi-opaque view to an increasingly clear view with each successive turn of the book?s pages; where each page contained large-print messages a few words in length.
I cannot make out the specific content of the pages, but I can feel that the book?s content signifies current social/economic concerns; which are ironic to Lennon?s ?Give Me Some Truth? e.g., hypocrisy, lies seemed to tie-in to the book?s content; as the large-print appeared to communicate, and instill.
From this dream, this song not only describes me personally, but the dream also offered ironic descriptions.
