The Lennon's new album 'Jude, arrives September 9, 2022, via BMG. It will be his first since 2011
In 2020 he legally changed his named from John Charles Julian Lennon to Julian Charles John Lennon to reflect the name he has always been known by. This was done, not out of disrespect to his parents, but to formalize their wishes and to make it easier when travelling, completing official forms etc.
“It was in 2020, just before we all got locked in a cage that I finally actually decided to legally change my name by default,” he said.
“Because originally my name was John Charles Julian Lennon, and the crap that I had to deal with when travelling and security companies and this and that and the other.” “Whenever you had to present yourself, especially on like boarding passes, just as an example, you know they only use your first name, and so it would always be John Lennon.”
“So it became really uncomfortable over the years because I’ve always been known as Julian and so it [being called John] never felt like it was me,” he said. “So finally I just decided in 2020, ‘Yeah, I wanna be me now. This is it, it’s time for a change.’”
Julian Lennon has revealed he had a love-hate relationship with Beatles song Hey Jude as it was a “dark reminder” about his parents’ divorce.
The song was written by Paul McCartney to comfort then five-year-old Julian when his father John and mother Cynthia were separating.
Speaking on the radio show Debatable on SiriusXM Volume, Lennon said: “I wasn’t really aware of what was going on except when I started seeing Yoko (Ono) around, obviously that made a bit of an impact and apparently I struggled with the separation a great deal at five.

He said: “The album allowed me to explain what Hey Jude meant to me because the fact of the matter is it was a love-hate relationship, I thought I had heard it enough.Lennon revealed that watching the Beatles documentary Get Back released last year and “reflecting on the song Hey Jude” inspired his new seventh album titled Jude.
“I am thankful to Paul for writing it and putting some hope behind what was to come, but the downside of it was it was a dark reminder of what actually went down at that time, the separation.
Julian's new album title is a nod to the Beatles' hit 'Hey Jude', which Paul McCartney penned for five-year-old Julian following his parents’ separation.
Julian has hailed the collection - which he co-produced with Justin Clayton - as a "coming-of-age" tale of his life.
He said: “Many of these songs have been in the works for several years, so it almost feels like a coming-of-age album.
With great respect for the overwhelming significance of the song written for me, the title JUDE conveys the very real journey of my life that these tracks represent.”
