Lucy Vodden - Lucy in the sky
Sad news out of the UK:
“Lucy Vodden, the woman who inspired the Beatles classic ‘Lucy in the Sky With Diamonds,’ died last Tuesday at the age of 46. Vodden, a childhood friend of Julian Lennon, passed away after losing a fight with the autoimmune disease lupus, according to an announcement made Monday by the St. Thomas’ Lupus Trust Charity.
John Lennon took the song title from a picture Julian had drawn of Vodden at school. “That’s Lucy in the sky with diamonds,” Julian told his dad when he brought the artwork home. Due to the psychedelic feel of the song, from the Fab Four’s iconic 1967 album ‘Sgt. Pepper’s Lonely Hearts Club Band,’ many fans felt the song’s title was an allusion to LSD.”
