When it comes to heartfelt sorry songs, it’s tough to out-do this classic Lennon ballad. The music for ‘Jealous Guy’ was inspired by the Beatles’ trip to India in 1968, but Lennon switched out the lyrics when making the ‘Imagine’ album. Although Lennon publicly stated that the song was about Yoko Ono, and making amends for his insecure nature in the past, McCartney said that Lennon told him that ‘Jealous Guy’ was about his ex-bandmate. Whether it’s an apology to his wife or a regretful eulogy for the Beatles, Lennon’s ‘Jealous Guy’ is a perfect song about imperfection.
