"Gimme Some Truth" is a protest song from John Lennon's 1971 iconic album, Imagine. Written amidst the Vietnam War's turmoil, it reflects the era's political and social unrest. The song's origins can be traced back to the Beatles' 1969 Get Back sessions, highlighting its deep roots in John Lennon's artistic journey. Produced by Phil Spector and featuring George Harrison's distinctive slide guitar, "Gimme Some Truth" is rich in political references, targeting deceitful politicians and societal hypocrisies. The song's 1982 posthumous release as a B-side to "Love" and its role in titling the 2000 documentary Gimme Some Truth: The Making of John Lennon's Imagine Album further cemented its importance within his catalog. Musically and lyrically, "Gimme Some Truth" is a testament to Lennon's skill in blending art with activism, offering a timeless critique of political and social deceit. In 2021, a version featuring the Beatles was officially released as part of the Let It Be: 50th Anniversary Edition and appeared in The Beatles: Get Back documentary.
