See John Lennon’s Rare Home Movie Footage in ‘Aisumasen (I’m Sorry)’ Video
A new music video for John Lennon‘s “Aisumasen (I’m Sorry)” features never-before-seen footage that Lennon took himself on a Sony Portapak in 1973. Different panels show how he saw the New York City apartment building he’d just moved into, the Dakota, and Central Park across the street. He also captured Yoko Ono giving a phone interview and imagery of himself, taken in a mirror. The recording that accompanies the footage is the new “ultimate mix” of the tune that will feature in the upcoming Mind Games box set when it comes out on July 12.
The new mix, like the ultimate mixes that came out on the 2018 Imagine box set, features a broader spectrum of sound. The original mix sounds almost claustrophobic with its tinny EQ and slap-back echo.

The Mind Games box set includes “ultimate mixes” of all of the album’s songs as well as additional alternate mixes. There are “elemental mixes,” “elements mixes,” outtakes, raw mixes, and an “evolution documentary.” The documentary edition of the title song came out previously, and you can hear Lennon talking about his songwriting process.
