Whyyyyyyyyyyyy.
This is who we're talking about here.
THESE ARE THE PEOPLE who made the epically true OP statement, a pretty controversial statement in the year of 1972...
LOOK at this shit.
3:40 I mean COME ON.
It HAS to be presented this way and if you read the words, it becomes pretty clear why...
John and Yoko together were calling people out and trying to tell the masses too much.
Maybe Yoko really does err on the side of a lil too crazy and that's why they left her alone?
Did they really leave her alone? Is killing John Lennon in front of her (and everyone else) not a pretty strong message?
As far as I know, Yoko's never really stopped doing her thing, but without John Lennon, the message is less... threatening to the elite, I guess.
Of course there are the rumors that Yoko was an agent from the start and I think the other members of the Beatles definitely felt she was an intruder. Whether they knew the scope of it, or whether there was anything more to know, I guess we'll find out someday. There has to be a paper trail if Yoko is an agent.
I don't think the rest of the Beatles' (including managers, etc.) stories/opinions should be entirely overlooked, and what DO they say about Yoko? Well I'm not really sure. All I ever heard was that they just didn't like her because she stole John away.
And it wasn't because John needed to finally settle down and start a family either, he was freaking married and had a child in the early '60s. That's throughout most of his career. So I really think what happened with Yoko is deeper than that.
Who knows what kind of person John really was... but I don't think he was a bad fella. I think he might have been capable of weaving a story though, and hearing his account of Yoko and his meeting each other sounded very fanciful. It was something he wanted to portray as mystical, and sort of beyond. Larger than life.
The biggest controversy was always the statement that Yoko made about not knowing who John/The Beatles were. There was proof she knew who they were. Later it was explained that she simply didn't know who John was when she met him. Allegedly this was misconstrued that she was implying she'd never heard of the Beatles, when she really just meant she didn't recognize John at first or some shit!
Who knows...
But let's see what the Beatles have to say about Yoko.
So here is Paul these days, speaking about the situation apparently...
I think he addressed the whole thing very respectfully...
1:04 really was intense because I think this is completely true and I'm glad that Paul sees that now.
Paul and the rest of them were young men back then, they've lived a lot of life after those years.
John Lennon was only 40 when he was assassinated...
That's quite young. Maybe eventually he would have gotten over his obsession with Yoko but I kinda don't think so because they were still together after all those years.
He was very much in love with his family.
