Watch the video and let us know if you think the voice sounds like Lennon.
Check out more voices from the beyond in this badass graves gallery.
Rock N' Roll Spirits
Rick James The Superfreak's Buffalo, NY headstone bears his own image in tight pants clutching a guitar.
GG Allin The punk rocker is as subversive in death as he was in life -- his tombstone reads "Live Fast Die" and "Rock N Roll Terrorist."
Charles Bukowski. The manliest poet to ever live has the epitaph "Don't Try."
"Dimebag" Darrell Abbot Dimebag's death was tragic and untimely, but his Texas headstone awesomely reads "He came to rock/ And rocked like no other."
Bob Marley The reggae master was buried with in his own mausoleum in Jamaica with his favorite guitar, a red Fender Stratocaster.
Bette Davis She wasn't exactly rock n roll, but Bette Davis' epitaph -- "She did it the hard way" -- is pretty badass.
Billy Wilder The Academy-Award winning motion picture writer, director and producer ("Some Like it Hot," "The Apartment") exited with a joke.
Karl Marx The founder of modern socialism watches over his final resting place like a stern grandpa, over the inscription "Workers of all lands unite."

Sounds nothing like Lennon. It sounds like Paul Rudd imitating Lennon in Walk Hard.

To all of you idiots out there who believe Lennon is speaking from the grave. They just took and old ad and dubbed his voice into it is all they did. If any of you believe different I have some swamp land I can sell you for about a million or two. Just email me and I will let you know where to send the money.

I love The Beatles.. and most of all John. I am old enough to say proudly I've seen 'The Boys' in person! If this is John talking.. or if it's not..(I only listened once..and WON'T listen again..) I find it extremely disturbing. Yoko had to approve this. I had some 'issues' with artwork of John's I purchased, and Yoko 'came thru' for me in a big way...but this is just CREEPY. I think Yoko 'dropped the ball' on this one..

No, John was the Walrus. He even has a song, which he did solo that says "I was the Walrus, but now I'm John."

John was dressed as the Walrus but he sang in the song that Paul was the Walrus but we all know Paul is dead. Right? Just kidding!

It's clearly not Lennon's voice. but, i think lending his image to a great cause is not disrespectful. i know yoko keeps close usage of his music and image. if it were a car commercial or something it would be bad. Michael Jackson, who owns the Beatles licensing has abused his ownership, not to mention a few children.

I think that the message is great but I can't believe they can't find a person alive today to spread the message. Technology is wonderful but there has to be better uses for it

That has to be one of the worst impressions of Lennon I have ever heard. Yoko will never stop trying to make a buck off John's image. He would be mortified!

Actually, I think John would have used his celebrity for a cause like this without thinking twice. People always bash Yoko, but she's rich already. She was his wife folks! And, apparently, she made him happy. As for "making a buck" I doubt that a charity would be paying for using his likeness. Bet she allowed it witout a fee. Now, do I dislike the commercial? Yeah, I do. I would have preferred if they compared this charity to one that John would have supported, instead of doing this creepy commercial... but I certainly don't think John would mind one way or the other. Remember, this many wanted to change the world.

Whatever else it is, it AIN'T John Lennon! Laptops weren't even a dream, not even a concept, when he died, in 1980! Even for a worthwhile project, this is a travesty! Whoever uttered those words should be ashamed, although I suspect s person that low wouldn't understand the concept.

Lennon or not, I have never understood this charity. They want people to donate laptops to kids in other countries? What about THIS country? I could use a laptop! Teachers in schools here can't give interenet-based homework because over 55% of the kids in our local schools don't have computer access at home. Job seekers trying to make their way through the worst economic crisis of our times could probably use the laptop to find new opportunities or retrain themselves. What about the people in our OWN BACKYARDS???

this is right on; reminds of those adverts for an organisation helping folks in Tibet. What about your next door neighbor? Doesn't CHARITY begin at home?

Funkybrew- this program seeks to put SOLAR POWERED laptops in the hands of every elementary school child across Africa, so they access information thousands of miles away from their mud-hut in the savanna of Africa, hopefully not only educating themselves, but helping their culture end the violence and grinding poverty that seems to assail them. Also, this is not an American Project but a global one. As far as "what about our own kids?" In Maryland, every middle school student has a laptop to take home, to complete assignments, do term papers, and other classwork. They can also get a tutor online or get help with their homework... so I guess that answers your question. If your school system doesn't have this program, maybe you can get it started, whereever you are....

John (may he rest in peace) has been gone for a little over 20 years. It would have been MUCH MORE appropriate if, perhaps, Julian (who sounds ALOT like his dad) had been a spokesperson, in concert with Yoko, to convey John's wishes to a Laptop for Every Child... less creepy by far.

While this ad definitely is creepy, I wonder, after 20 years (nearly 30 years, actually) if any of us can truly say what John's feelings would be about this program. The equipment that's being offered has its detractors, in terms of the quality/utility of the laptops. That John was a champion of humanitarian causes is a given. The advisability of using his "voice" and image for this ad is very questionable. Julian or Sean would have made excellent spokespersons with or without the blessings of Yoko. This is just too weird.
