Lucy Vodden The Real Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds Dies

Lucy Vodden, the woman who inspired the Beatles’ song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds, has died after a long battle with Lupus. She was only 46 years old.

Julian Lennon, the son of Beatle John Lennon came back from nursery school in 1966 with a drawing. When John asked him about it he explained it as “That’s Lucy in the sky with diamonds” and a song was born.

Here is what Julian Lennon posted on his Facebook page:

“Lucy, I will miss you… You may have passed from this Earth, but your Name & Love will Shine & Sing forever in the My Sky…x”

That is so sad, the girl with kaleidoscope eyes is gone.

R.I.P Lucy!
