Johnson was born 13 June 1990 in Holmer Green, Buckinghamshire, England, the son of a homemaker mother and a civil engineer father. It was announced on 31 October 2009, that Johnson was engaged to filmmaker Sam Taylor-Wood, his director on Nowhere Boy. As of January 2010, Taylor-Wood is pregnant with the couple's first child.
Johnson began acting at the age of 6, performing as the son of Macduff alongside Rufus Sewell’s Macbeth in 1999, and in Arthur Miller’s All My Sons in 2000. His TV roles have included his turn as Niker in the BBC's 2004 adaptation of the novel Feather Boy and Owen in the E4 series, Nearly Famous. In 2003, Johnson appeared as a young Charlie Chaplin in Shanghai Knights. In 2006, Johnson appeared in The Illusionist, appearing in the flashback scenes in the beginning of the film as Edward Norton's character as a teenager, Eduard Abramovicz. The scenes show the young Eduard as he first learns magic, and to do this, Johnson himself learned how to perform the ball trick displayed by his character. He also learned how to perform the balancing of the egg on the stick, although that was effected mechanically. Johnson subsequently appeared as the heartthrob in the 2008 teen comedy Angus, Thongs and Perfect Snogging, Lorimer Black in Armadillo, and Prosper in The Thief Lord.
Johnson appeared as John Lennon in the 2009 biopic Nowhere Boy, directed by Sam Taylor-Wood.

Hello Little Girl
Aaron Johnson Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Hello, little girl
Hello, little girl
When I see you every day
I say, mmm, mmm, hello, little girl
When you're passing on your way
I say, mmm, mmm, hello, little girl
When I see you passing by
I cry, mmm, mmm, hello, little girl
When I try to catch your eye
I cry, mmm, mmm, hello, little girl
I send you flowers but you don't care
You never seem to see me standing there
I often wonder what you're thinking of
I hope it's me and love, love, love
So I hope there'll come a day
When you'll say, mmm, you're my little girl
It's not the first time that it's happened to me
It's been a long lonely time
And it's funny, funny to see
That I'm about to lose my mind
So I hope there'll come a day
When you say, mmm, mmm, you're my little girl
Mmm, mmm, mmm, you're my little girl
M mm, mmm, mmm, you're my little girl, oh yeah
You're my little girl
The lyrics of Aaron Johnson's song "Hello Little Girl" speak about the infatuation of the singer towards a girl he sees every day but who seems unattainable. The singer greets her every time they cross paths, hoping for a chance to catch her attention. He tries to send her flowers, but she seems oblivious to his efforts. He wonders what she thinks of him and hopes that she will come to realize that he is the one for her.
The repetitiveness of the lyrics "Hello, little girl" emphasizes the singer's persistent efforts to get the girl's attention. He is obviously besotted with her and cannot stop thinking about her. He is hopelessly in love with her, even though she appears not to notice him at all.
The repetition of the phrase "mmm, mmm" throughout the song conveys a sense of longing and yearning for the girl's attention. It expresses the singer's feelings of desperation and helplessness in the face of his unrequited love. The lyrics are simple yet heartfelt, and many people have likely gone through similar experiences of longing for someone who seems just out of reach.

Lindos John e Cynthia, tão jovens.

This makes me wish we had an actual recording of John Singing this. I mean, I know we have the Decca auditions on the Anthology album, but it would be nice to just here John and the Guitar. no other glitz or glamour, just purely him.
Oh Yeah Yeah
You sound eerily like a younger John Lennon not going to lie
