Gimme Some Truth (по названию песни) — бокс-сет с песнями Джона Леннона, выпущенный лейблом EMI Records 5 октября 2010 года, к 70-летию Леннона. Бокс-сет составлен из четырёх дисков, набор песен на каждом из которых определяется отдельной темой (по названиям известных песен Леннона): «Working Class Hero» («Герой рабочего класса») — песни на социально-политическую тематику; «Woman» («Женщина») — песни о любви; «Borrowed Time» («Время, взятое взаймы») — песни о жизни; «Roots» («Корни») — песни, на которых Леннон учился играть и сочинять рок-н-ролльные песни, а также оказавшие на него влияние[2]. Все песни, изданные на бокс-сете, были заново ремастированы. Одновременно был выпущен сборник с наиболее популярными песнями Леннона из представленных в бокс-сете, под названием Power to the People: The Hits.
