A classic wave is coming to splash in your memory. (Singing)

Instant Karma ( We All Shine On) is a song by John Lennon, released as a single on Apple Records in Feb. 1970. The song reached the top five in the British and American singles charts, competing with the Beatles “Let It Be” in the US, where it became the first solo single by a member of the band to sell a million copies.

The song Instant Karma may leave you wondering about it’s meaning. According to the urban dictionary, the words Instant Karma means swift and intense negative happening in someone’s life after they do something shady to another person.

To me, the song is saying two things. It’s also saying we all shine on. That is uplifting and positive to say about everyone.

I remember when Instant Karma was played in a Nike commercial back in the 90’s. It was my first time hearing the song by John Lennon. I think that was a smart idea. I remember seeing the commercial during the time when sports came on-on weekends. I thought to myself that the song was about winning and everybody winning. I think it was a good idea that they used the song Instant Karma in a Nike commercial because they showed people running, jumping, and playing sports. When you work hard in sports, you aim to win, and we all shine on.
