How refreshing to see a documentary that shines such positive light on Yoko. I wrote her years ago about how much I admired her and how I lamented how poorly she was treated. She wrote me back thanking me for the email. I was touched.
What an actress! I'm so glad we met! She stalked him, and hung around him and never gave up till he went with her. As though they 'just met' ........... She wanted him to elevate her career, thought she could sing and still does! No-one would let her near a mic or recording studio without Lennon. Saying she had not heard of the Beatles only Ringo cos it is Japanese for apple is tosh. If she heard of Ringo, then she would have heard of the Beatles, as he was only mentioned in context with being part of them.
Thank you so much !! ヨーコさんの事をその様に評価して下さり、本当に嬉しいです。いつも彼女は中傷誹謗の嵐の中で闘ってきました。なんと強い女性でしょうか! そんな彼女を暖かい気持ちで見守って下さる方もおられるのに胸が熱くなってきます。勿論私は彼女の大のフアンです。この度コメントをして下さり感謝申し上げます。
I think,we should just;”let this go,folk’s!Some of this(John being introduced to Yoko Ono,via an art gallery in 1966,November of that year).I mean,they understood each other,so,I’d let it go!
IMHO: Peter Jackson Get Back documentary proved this belief wrong. The Beatles didn't break up and weren't annoyed by Yoko Ono. They were very accepting of her and Paul later brought Linda and her daughter to the Let it Be recordings and they all had a lot of fun. If the Beatles broke up because John wanted to do his own work. Yoko as any supportive partner, back him up and encouraged him to do it. With the Beatles, John was doing what the Beatles and the public wanted. Yoko brought more of John out of John and he seemed grateful to her for that.
Well Olivia newton John was brought up in England until five to British parents yet Australia which don’t have much fame to claim music or celebrity wise over look that she’s at least half British after she died that just went on about her been Australian
@@adamjames5027 True enough, but five is somewhat different from 13 -- you've been pretty socialzed by then. But my point was that you couldn't really say she was "from" England -- it's misleading and maybe confusing in this case, if viewers know otherwise. Wasn't nitpicking; just wanted to help.
"never again would I create a relationship so strong that it would affect my life when I lose it."... she said it at 26:00. i infer that would include Lennon. she was having affairs at the time of his passing and moved Havadtoy in rather quickly. [funny how they left that out].
You are so right. There has been a lot of massaging of Yoko's image and this documentary attempts to do just that. In return for getting exclusive access to her ( a coup which would guarantee viewership) a creampuff piece of journalism was created to remake her a likeable person. But anyone familiar with her knows the truth about Yoko.
@@creativeblunder Nah, she destroyed herself with some of THE most embarrassing moments in rock & roll history. A narcissist of unparalleled dimension who took the shine of Beatles glory and focused that spotlight on herself.
Yoko is such a doll...and Im so sorry that I didn't even give her a chance back in the day. We all evolve and I certainly have evolved. Yoko is such an artist. If you appreciate art and avant-garde art / concepts...you must purchase her book, Grapefruit. I had no idea. She reminds me of Marina Abramovic.
What made me upset with yoko was how she treated Julian when it came to John's MONEY, and THINGS, if she did the right things she wouldn't be hated. Even though things turned out fine with Julian, still it all could have been easy to just share John's things and money with Julian... or with whoever. It's not like she would be struggling...smh... that's what still gets me like..aggg with her. Otherwise she seemed alright a good mum, a passionate artist, as an artist/ art teacher i respect her art. 👍🏻 Cheers😊
i think they did some great work in the seventies. but in the end, hypocritical...about money, and yuppie life in new york..not much of a social concience after...... they had some good ideas of love, peace...all to seemingly be lost...then became first class yuppies.] with cashhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.. i m just being honest , as to how i see it. if they were really liberal or she was...i think i d see some solid peace and love happening...some forgiveness to chapman , who was ill....other things.. some love to macca or julian, or, cynthia...i just don t see the love. this is pure honesty. she s an interesting artist, but i don t look at her as compassionate, i look at her as being full of herself, and greedy. and that is pure honesty. i think she s attractive, charming, and greedy and selfish. that is pure honesty from my end. lennon wrote amazing songs, they had some great ideas...but in the end, all i see is porsches and dollar signs, and quite an ego here.]
Very interesting. One perspective. Nevertheless, I never could stand her and I still view her as a narcissistic fraud. Of course I loved John Lennon, but we know more about his flaws than we did 8n the day. It doesn’t ultimately matter, but eff Yoko ono.
If you want to blame Yoko for the Beatles breaking up, then you can also credit her for launcing the very successful solo careers of Paul, George, Ringo and John.
