In fitting tribute to those who lost their lives at the ISIS terrorist attack on The Bataclan in Paris last night (13 November), a man has cycled to the venue to perform John Lennon's anthem for Peace, 'Imagine'.

The Bataclan was the site of a heinous attack at an Eagles Of Death Metal gig - where terrorists killed 120 concert-goers before police broke the hostage siege, killing two of the attackers.

Other attacks took place at the Stade De France football stadium and a nearby restaurant. ISIS have since claimed respsonsibility - referring to EODM show as a 'party of perversity'

A vigil is being held near the scene of the horror, with one man showing his solidarity with the spirit of France by cycling a mini piano to the Bataclan to perform a cover of John Lennon's 'Imagine': 

A state of emergency has since been declared across France, with U2, Deftones and more cancelling gigs through fears of safety.

The world of music have also flooded the internet with tributes to those who lost their lives.
