Cynthia singing "Those Were The Days"

This is a Cynthia Lennon Myspace site, which may or may not be official (I'm not sure).

It's the only place online that I know of where you can listen to Cynthia's cover version of the Mary Hopkin song "Those Were The Days". Please listen to it and let us know what you think.

Could Cynthia have had a career in music?

[~Lennon Girl~]

I didn't know she had .. singin' skillz?!


It's rather alright. I'd like hear more of her pure voice.

[mythepoeia]

wow, cool! I didn't know that either. I've never heard her sing, have to stop by there sometime!

This is news to me. I didn't know Cynthia could sing either.

[nowheregirl]

I think that's the only song she's done. I've never heard any others.

In Cynthia's book she says that she and John would sometimes try to sing together but always finished up just laughing because Cynthia sounded 'too posh'. I'll have to find the exact paragraph from the book to share with you.

Is this the quote you're thinking of, Jean?

At other times John would get me to sing along with him. Our favorite was "Blue Moon," but our rendition was so bad that we fell about laughing. "I know you sang solo in a choir, Cyn, but, Christ, you'll never make it as a pop star. You're too posh. Try and rock it up a bit. You're not singing in church now, loosen up and try it again."

(From "John" by Cynthia Lennon)

Yes, that's it. You beat me to it, nowheregirl!

"Walking In The Rain", the B-side to "Those Were The Days" has also been added to Cynthia's Myspace.
