Nov 17, 2003 - London, London, United Kingdom - THE woman whose childhood friendship with John Lennon's son Julian inspired the song Lucy in the Sky with Diamonds has died. Lucy Vodden, who was recently revealed as the girl behind the 40-year-old Beatles song, had been battling lupus, an incurable disease of the immune system. Julian Lennon has said that the track was inspired by a picture he drew of classmate Lucy O'Donnell with star-like shapes when they were at nursery school in the mid-1960s. The young Julian showed his father the picture and told him it was 'Lucy in the sky with diamonds'. Lennon used the phrase as a title for a song he wrote for the album Sgt Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band, released in 1967. Last night Julian and his mother Cynthia said they were 'shocked and saddened' by 46-year-old Mrs Vodden's death. The musician, who lives in France, got back in touch with her six months ago after discovering through mutual friends that she was chronically ill.
