Yes. Late 1974: John Lennon singing "Whatever Gets You Through the Night" (background vocals and keyboards by Elton John). "Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds" by Elton John (background vocals and guitar by John Lennon). An unusual set of circumstances to be sure. For the record, both singles reached #1 in the USA.
Are Julian Lennon and Sean Lennon friends?
Julian Lennon is John Lennon's son from his first wife, Cynthia. He was born in 1962. He has some affiliation with some later Beatles songs. The song Hey Jude was written by Paul on his way to visit Cynthia and Julian to help him get over his parents' divorce. Lucy In the Sky With Diamonds, contrary to the barbaric belief that it stands for LSD, was written by John about a painting that Julian had done at school which he replied, when John asked what it was, 'Lucy in the sky with diamonds.' The song Good Night was also written by John (but sung by Ringo) for Julian as a lullaby to help him get to sleep.

Can you obtain details on Elton John inviting John Lennon to sing with him on Thanksgiving Day?
There are several accounts of this, in biographies of both men. The short version is that Elton John made John Lennon promise that if Lennon's 1974 single "Whatever Gets You Thru The Night" (one of two Lennon recordings he sang on that year) became a #1 chart hit, Lennon would perform at one of John's concerts. Lennon had little faith in the song, and made the promise thinking he wouldn't have to keep it. The record hit Number One a few weeks later, and John held Lennon to his promise. Lennon guest-starred at John's Thanksgiving Day concert, performing three songs with him and his band: "Whatever Gets You Thru The Night", "Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds" (which John had covered earlier in the year, with Lennon's blessings and collaboration), and a loose performance of "I Saw Her Standing There", an early Beatles song that none of them had actually sung onstage before. (McCartney was the lead vocalist, when the Beatles had performed it.) Nobody knew it at the time, but this turned out to be Lennon's last public performance. Both May Pang (Lennon and Yoko Ono's personal assistant, who lived with Lennon when he and Ono were separated) and Yoko Ono were also at the show; Ono in the audience, Pang backstage. Ono came backstage afterwards, and it was the first time they'd seen each other in months. Someone took a photo, and they treasured it later. They rekindled their marriage, and Lennon moved back in, with their son Sean Lennon born months later. Elton John became Sean's godfather.
Is Lucy In The Sky About LSD?
WHOEVER WROTE THE LAST ANSWER IS WRONG NOLucy in the sky with diamonds is NOT about LSD it is about a picture that Julian Lennon drew heres the story...So Julian Lennon (John Lennon's son) had a school friend named Lucy Vennon (she died recently) and one day he drew a picture of her and took it home when he showed it to John John asked what it was and Julian said "Its Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds!" and John liked what he called it so started writing a song. NOW YOU KNOWThe reason that people say it is about LSD (it is NOT) is because back then people were trying to find the meanings of beatles songs and they assumed it was about LSD because of the initials trust me i know
Why was Lucy based on the song Lucy in the sky with diamonds?
It is about a drawing that John Lennon's son made showing one of his classmates, Lucy, in the sky with diamonds for her eyes. It is not at all about a drug, it is just about a cute drawing Julian Lennon made in nursery school.
