- May 12th, 1972 John and Yoko talk with and perform for Dick and Shirley McClaine. John defends his use of the word "nigger" for his song "woman is the nigger of the world", in addition to explaining his deportation and custody dilemma.
Shirley McLaine talks out of ass for most of the show, watch her repeatedly praise John and Yoko off camera and be politely dismissed. While being interviewed, she states she has no belief in spirits and paranormal things--which she must have forgotten later in career when she started selling that nonsense. Shirley also demonstrates the lost art of the uncomfortably long hug with Yoko.

It's ironic that had they been deported, John would likely be alive today.
That's a pointless remark. Firstly, if someone really wants to kill another human being, they will find a way. Secondly, John would have eventually gotten citizenship, regardless if Nixon got his way.
John Owens might've been a lot later
John Owens I also doubt what's his face would fly over seas to kill Johnny boy
@@sodacanman3126 although Hawaii isnt in a different country its still over seas and a long journey, i believe he just would of gone to the uk to get him
Over the past decade, hopefully, you’ve learned the actual meaning of the term “irony.”
Holy shit. You could win a war with Yoko's singing voice, as a weapon of mass destruction.
Good one 😅😂😅
Thank you! 😂😂😂
Not everyone may like her voice but John Lennon would not like anyone who was unkind to her ! Always remember that she is more kind than any of you haters will ever be !
@@brithaddenhadden8383 She's not kind. John was besotted with her because she played the oldest trick in the book that all narcissists play - that mysterious "unavailability". All that "empty". She didn't love him. She proved that when she barged into the song he was doing with Chuck Berry on the Dick Cavat show. She has no talent yet she followed John on stage banging on a tambourine. Then she decided to join in, vocally screeching like a cat in a room full of rocking chairs trying to drown them out with that tuneless screeching kookaburra noise she does.
Take a look at how pissed Chuck Berry was with that selfish cow trying to ruin what John had dreamed of for so long - singing with his Rock n Roll hero. I'm not hateful, just stating the obvious about her completely selfish behaviour. You can have her. She didn't love John, she just hurt him. Look at how she pushed Julian out of his life and even made him give her money for Julian's memorabilia from John. Any decent person would have gone out of their way to make him a gift of those things. Julian is a beautiful person and deserved better. All she wanted was John's money.
@@brithaddenhadden8383, no she isn’t. She is a manipulative and took john away from his family and son.
John Lennon is so witty and eloquent !! He could have become anything he wanted
and he was only 31 at the time, and Beatles already "history". amazing
He was always famous, he said
Terrible that he's gone. What an amazing person he was.. So advanced in his thinking for equality and peace. Love you JOHN.
One wonders, if Lennon had been deported, would he still be alive?
It’s too bad John Lennon had to die. It’s too bad Yoko yo-yo had to live.
Stay classy San Diego
@byculla6: He was a mess.
He is appreciated because he passed away from violence while loving peace among all people and life. One man’s ego killed him
John came in such a strange package. You first have to transport yourself back to the time he's a product of just to get close to understand where he was coming from. He was so controversial throughout his life. I can't even imagine a song using that word even for a good cause today (2023). I'm not sure if John realized how much a target his "Concepts for change" made him. They wanted to deport him, people burned Beatles records, maniacs showed up at his door..etc. He'll certainly be remembered particularly as a genius creator and performer. Both John and Yoko were moving a mile a minute.
I just finished watching Shirley in the Dick Calvert show with John and Yoko. You’ve always been one of my favorite actors and dancers but your effusive response to Yoko and John was just tremendous. You e always been a woman of high integrity. Thank you
That's ONE song that could NEVER be recorded or shown on T.V. today.
Which is weird because this song would’ve been extremely woke for it’s time.
Right lol when they started singing my jaw dropped literally 😂😂😂
They say Love is blind but in John's case it was deaf
Deaf and blind.
The best part of the show is how they let him speak for so long. Where as most interviewers always cut someone off.
Dick Cavett is a wonderful interviewer. He could make a rock talk. Watch his George Harrison interview. Oh yes - and his Katharine Hepburn interview! He completely charmed her. Dick Cavett is adorable.
the way john is talking about their legal issues, he is being so open and honest. celebrities either don't want to or simply can't do that anymore I guess. I can't imagine anyone hugely famous now going on conan o'brian or something and just describing the current details of their child's custody case.
Yes but he was "defending" her. Meanwhile he forfeited any chance to visit his own son in England because the Americans would have arrested him for past drug use. Some men find the most annoying women. I always thought he was intelligent and funny but he was like a whipped puppy with her.
Some of us don't care about the artist's travails. We just listen to the music liking or disliking. We all have troubles in our lives, but we don't have to invite 200 million people in the door
So open and honest. Glad he did most of the talking. He explained it so well. Loved to hear him speak. Funny but I never thought of him as funny always seemed so serious. Great musician! Missed so much
If they would make a "Just say NO to drugs" commercial with Yoko singing and screeching and a voice saying "This is your mind on drugs" it might stop the entire use of drugs in the world. Her screeching could also be used on battlefields to force enemy soldiers to surrender, if it wasn't found to be too cruel.
My God Yoko sounds like a scared cat screeching away
Yoko out there singing her dolphin song, no wonder they fled into the sea to get away from that
Love is indeed blind... and deaf !
and dare I say desperate
From a musicians standpoint, I love the chord changes to the song. Lennon's style of writing is unmistakable.
The chords are cool a rehash of Frank Sinatra's That's life. The song is crap.
John Lennon and Shirley Maclaine.Two great people in the same room!
Hey, it’s too bad Yoko yo-yo was there she destroyed everything
I know she just buts in l...I'm just tuning in so I can laugh at that voice of hers 😊@@philiphoward1731
No man like John Lennon ♥
Brave
I love John he's my favourite Beatle but I've always said to truly love someone it has to be warts and all. Everyone always seems to blame Yoko for taking John away from Julian but lets be honest the neglect and mistreatment of Julian had been going on long before Yoko hit the scene, really Cynthia may had well been a single mother. And to be honest watching this interview it is a bit rich how he basically went all out to find another women's child while he all round neglected his own biological child.
the irony of this situation 😮
They should have banned Yoko from the show.
But then John's umbelical cord would have snapped
"the lost art of the uncomfortably long hug"... LMAO! ... SO worth waiting for! Thank you for posting this!
watching them perform live i just sat there thinking what a rubbish song, but god damn that man could sing!
What the bloody hell is yoko doing with that bongo!!! Couldn’t be more out of time if she was trying to
What kills me is that she always slagged off rock ‘n’ roll music as low brow and then the first chance she got jumped up on stage to play it. Horribly.
I clicked on this for Dick Cavett and his interview with John Lennon, then I end up loving the Shirley Maclaine interview. She was so engaging and intelligent. What a conversationalist!
Same here! I was going to skip over the Shirley MacLaine part and I’m so glad I didn’t
I always wonder what would have happened to Yoko if she never met John? None of uswould have heard of her... thats for sure.
Crying TROLLER Word Salad 101
She could have stayed with her husband and raised her daughter,if she wanted.
No one never would of heard of Yoko. If you seen her "art" & heard her "sing" it's obvious that people only heard of her because of JOHN LENNON. And the way she treated Julian was truly unforgivable!
Yoko is an unmitigated disaster.
Hmm what was the name of her band again 🤔🤔🤔😉
And yes the American Government was just as Hard at Work as they are today..!
No way anyone wanted to listen to Yoko screeching and squeaking. They were forced to endure it if they wanted to see John.
One forgets that John was only 31 at the time, and Beatles already "history". amazing
He looked like a shy innocent nerd with the hair and the glasses but do some research on him and discover what a horrible person he was towards certain people a egocentric narcissist...
Love is blind, but in John's case it was also incredibly deaf. The buzz from the speakers was the high point of what was to follow after 58:30.
Let me make this clear. John's intention was never to offend or disparage anyone at all by this song or what he said. He was simply telling the truth about women. That's all. Ahead of his time in many, many respects. We all truly miss you, John. I'm looking forward to meeting and talking with you after this life.
Lennon admitted he was a chauvinist and hit women!!!
What a great thing to say man.
John lived his life the way he wanted to, he created music and art and did it with meaning and purity. Sadly he went out in tragedy, i bet he wouldn't change a thing. He was where his heart wanted to be.
Treated Julian quite appallingly. JL could be exceptionally selfish and was unfortunately besotted with the malevolent YO. Facts.
@@pippipster6767 Agreed, I was speaking more on the musical side of his life, not his personal life. He def made some mistakes, we all do.
@@jimmyfabs78 also his life was cut short at a young age and there's no way of knowing the person he could have become or what would have become of his relationships. He was a work in progress. As we all are.
Nearly 50 years after his death , Lennon's influence hasn't diminished one iota. Still mesmerizing , perverse and very, very human.
I lost a sibling the same way Yoko Ono lost her child-at least, as she describes it here. It is painful every day.
What a bunch of musical crap.
Shitty
"hold fast"! (1Thess.5 :21, the Bible)
If he was deported he may of been alive today :(
If he didn’t politics horrible song things in America neither
I love John, but he is so concerned about looking for Yoko's daughter, what about John spending time with Julian? Julian needed his father as much as Yoko's daughter needed her.
Yes, hope he never sees that interview.... M
Well it probably seems that way I think it's cause they can't find her cause he ex is keeping from her. John knows Julian is safe. But I can see why it would hurt Julian but I think that's mainly the reason
What a great interview!!! And kudos to Shirley McClain for being such a great guest also!!!
She got more and more crazy in her beliefs as years came and passed, though.
Yoko got far more attention than was ever warranted just cause she was with John.
Like Priscilla.😊
In all fairness,Yoko did abandon her daughter.. not once ,but twice before Cox disappeared with her.It's really not up to the legal system to make ammends for her bad choices.
Its like straight out of a karaoke bar in Saigon.
Did Yoko try to hook up with McCartney first prior to getting her teeth into John? Then she denied knowing who The Beatles and John was initially. In pursuing him she even climbed in Johns limousine and sat herself between John and Cynthia according to Cynthia Lennon. She totally manipulated the situation from the off. When Lennon was due to meet with the band to sign contracts to dissolve the band she told him not to do it as the stars were not right and he obeyed her wish. I'm sorry but Lennon was naive. Some of the tricks she got up to in keeping Julian out of John's initial estate point to a very calculated person.
Sean Whittaker And Linda first went for John but he snubbed her so she settled for the less talented Beatle but John did bonk Ringos wife. After all it was the 60s.
Actually it was George that slept with Maureen and yes John was Linda's favourite Beatle but she never actually pursued him what's so ever.
marco calarco Paul the less talented Beatle lmao, best joke of the year, watching these performances show you who was the most talented anyway.
Marco Calarco --- Paul was quieter and less flashy but by no means less talented.
Putting in an affair with a married man is an unfair situation specially in Asian Countries and that was 60's wherein people known to be conservative but yoko seems to be opposite..John must be hypnotized . Feel sympathized and pity to his wife and son julian.
John lennon legend never die
Он великий. Один из немногих кто изменил нашу жизнь и дал надежду.
It's hard to imagine anyone really seriously thought she was a good musician or singer.
I saw the two of them live in a big stadium and loathed her. He wasn't that good either, in that venue. A lot of screaming at the top of his voice of old rock and roll songs. But I have to admit that I watched her performance here twice, and started getting into it. Very progressive in a crazy way.
I never can forget ..this man its mi great inspiration in the world, i love john,sorry im crying
You never truly realise just how fluent and with eloquent meaning John was when expressing himself. He was a very intelligent man.. as was Yoko!
John intelligent? By far, yes! Yoko NO!
Terrible Yoko voice. Funny John made terrible comments about Bob Dylan, Paul McCartney, Mike jagger and look at Yoko voice, Christ.
Yoko was a... man ?! 😨
@@BaxterThewall an intelligent one too
Only in America
Great posting-whatever flaws Lennon had, he was a great human being who thought of others. Shirley McLaine a similarly great human being.
We are still watching Mr Cavette !!! It’s 2023-2024 very soon 🔜 !!!
that witch is upset about not seeing her daughter!!!! lol ya she stopped Julian travelling to see his dad when he was young. what comes around eh!
starquant i know man, spitting blind venom
Shirley McClaine is wonderful, just right; playful, mischievous but also serious. I never knew (her character)
John is so alive, so aware... :)
maybe if he stayed back home in england he could be still with us now .. we never know RIP John
I Am Sorry 😔 But I Think 🤔 That MDC Still Would Have Found A Way To Get To John Lennon And Would Have Successfully Killed John.
Lunatics Find A Way To Kill , No Matter Where The Victim Lives . ( Country. )
Rest In Peace John Lennon ( 1940-1980 )🙏
John, the performance with Yoko is absolutely embarassing.
The first song is probably the best live solo Lennon performance I’ve seen. Some of those early solo concerts where he had a dozen or more people on stage who looked more like they belonged in a cult than a band were just terrible.
There is a video where Frank Zappa and the Mothers wanted to jam with John Lennon and when they got their chance of course he brought Yoko and of course she had to be included and of course she ruined it.
It might have been a classic recording had it not been for Yoko getting a live microphone and making stupid noises.
It was a rare shot of John Lennon playing blues doing some kind of ' cat blues ' and Yoko had to make stupid cat noises.
The Mothers got irritated and were trying to get rid of her and John got all pissed off.
Once again he thought she was the greatest but nobody else agreed.
“Woman is the Nigger of the World” is one of John and Yoko’s finest and most underrated songs with a powerful performance on the Legendary Dick Cavett Show…it’s such a brilliant interview with the amazing John and Yoko as well! Thanks for sharing this full show🙏 it’s so good to watch, love it❤❤❤ brilliant hearing “We’re all Water” from Sometime in New York City performed live as well. Inspiring!
We always hear “LOVE IS BLIND”. I thought Yoko is pretty…BUT…i think “LOVE IS DEAF”. Who on earth with good hearing could stand Yoko’s voice singing???
It was really good to see John Lennon and Shirley McLean. They are both true talents. And then we have Yoko yo-yo a complete waste of money and time totally worthless.
What a wonderful and informative post. Thank you!
OMG Yoko sings like Sid Vicious.... Im beginning to think, was it Yoko Ono that inspired the Sex Pistols?
Wow Shirley McClaine was really pretty

If John Lennon was still alive we would have world peace and the music today would be much better there will never be a greater musical artist than John Lennon he inspired millions then and he still insipres me to this day. (R)eturn (I)f (P)ossible John We Miss You.
what i would do to back to when john was alive...i wrote a whole song for him if only he could hear it ... i miss him and i wasnt alive to know him
How can you forget about Hendrix!!! that's the man who revolutionized the scene
Thank you for posting this
MY LORD,, We the people were really robbed of an incredible man and talent. The music that this man would've produced ,,,god only knows now.
Yoko's bongo really made that song!
Best Percussionist of All Time? Most definitely.
lol
+demoskunk AHAHAHAHHAH
She's defently the nicker of this band.
Lmaooo idk if shes even miked. Shes just taking up space on the stage
John Lennon, we'll always love you! Daniel, 16
If you don't understand why john loved yoko you don't understand john.
WHOEVER TOLD THAT WOMAN THAT SHE HAD TALENT NEEDS LOCKING UP. AND THAT PERFORMANCE FROM JOHN WAS SECOND RATE TRIPE.
it,s 4am and I am wide awake again.......totally worth it though....that was great. first time I have ever heard or seen dick cavett.good show.........cheers Elvis!
John Lennon is the one who mastered AUTO-REVERSE on a cassette format.
"Where I come from - London" Really John? - you don't come from London.
Plus - all these comments about how Yoko split John from his family, well John was the one who left them. A man who leaves his family is responsible for his own actions. Julian was Johns child and he abandoned the child , the blame lies solely on his weak shoulders.
melon scoffer and then do you think yoko's conscience is right for that situation?.
I'm pretty sure he moved to London right when the Beatles were taking off and stayed there until he and Yoko moved to NY in the early '70s. Every Beatles album was recorded in London.
Fabulous live perf... and those stonking solos.... ❤🎉❤🎉❤
I miss John!!!
I miss John Lennon.
Lennon and Shirley are the greats names of Light , Peace and Love .
I thought that was so touching how much Shirley showed respect and appreciation to Yoko for she felt what she was doing. And I liked the song she sang. She’s like a serous person who is singing for the first time and enjoying the feeling.
What a weird chemistry was there between those people?? I think we could all imagine John Lennon with a much better girlfriend, right? But still, we have to respect his choice ...
It's horrible what Yoko's former husband dis to her daughter in fact it's like child kidnapping Yoko was not allowed to speak to her even on the phone! I like the way John explains to the audience the pain they are both experiencing
Does anyone really want to hear what she has to say?
Some of the things she says are interesting they aren't too bad (this is only my opinion)
I wish talk shows today were more like this. Lennon was cool and just wanted to express himself. Take it or leave it.
John Lennon was a very smart man 📱
One of John Lennon's most powerful socio-political statements ever! Unfortunately because of the N word this song never got the chance to be fully appreciated for what it stands for.
He could have used more descriptive language. Wasn't he a lyricist?
I don't hate her for breaking up the Beatles because that wasn't her fault. They were breaking apart each other by fighting all the time. I hate her for all the things she has done to Julian Lennon. Stopping him from getting or holding onto anything from John.
you should all be ashamed of yourselves lennon did so much good in the world he was a great man,where all human we all make mistakes and fuck up sometimes but at least he got off his arse and did great things for mankind,
Like what exactly. Please explain what he did that was so good.
I love this interview. Both of them appear very humane and genuine.
Just because someone loves John doesn't mean they HAVE to accept Yoko regardless of whether he loved her or not. She was a fucking whack job and filled John's mother complex. I'm so sick and tired of people saying John loved her so accept her. NO have you never had a friend you liked but HATED their partner? What, you HAVE to like their partner because you like them? Hell NO! People put up with her enough because she was John's love but every time John would play live there she was screeching!
Nowadays this song would be totally taken out of context and he would've been permanently labeled a racist. And his career would be over.
Fascinating. It was all J. Edgar Hoover, and they had no idea at the time.
What if David Chapman would have killed Yoko instead?....
+Pierantonio Micciarelli What if he would've killed you instead?
+Pierantonio Micciarelli the world would be a better place
Damn, in all this time (6/2/18) I don't recall ever thinking that thought - god, I WISH it was Yoko instead of John!! I think Lennon & McCartney would still be collaborating and doing Andrew Lloyd Weber-like masterpieces together. I heard that a cop on the scene asked the killer (whom I refuse to name here) "Do you know what you've done?" He killed the revolutionary progression in music that L & McC began in the very early '60s. such a shame.
Agggh the poor guy loved milk shakes at Nathan’s, and late night TV📺📺📺📺. He was like a little kid with his enthusiasms!!! Ya gotta Love it❤️❤️❤️❤️ A witty, funny, super intelligent guy. A real tragedy that a Mother couldn’t see or talk to her child. Absolutely cruel!!! Of course the real horrible tragedy was yet to come about 8 years later (This was done in’71 or ‘72). I had never seen this performance before & John was in good from Rhythmicly & vocally. Great band too!!! RIP John Winston Lennon a great loss for us all.🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Yoko ono tortured John Lennon and all orphans she had him by his nuts and all the people who loved him suffered with him.
That Lennon Stance :)
Aha... someone else noticed that.
Yeah: back to early BeaTle days
Yes. Glad i wasnt the only to notice!
Their outfits are so different from the previous visit.
John Lennon, the best songwriter of his time.
Or any time
And anytime at all
Thanks for posting this ! Give peace a chance
In this heavily PC society that we find ourselves in today there's no way their song would have gotten air play. Either on tv, or radio. I find it strange how things seemingly were "freer" over the air waves back then, but not now. There's more stations now than then. But they were "freer". I hope things begin to even themselves out in that area. I find this song eye opening for equality, and social justice. Great song, and program. Thanks for this upload!
We are all free in our minds to say and think whatever we wish. If we collectively wished to change the scope of media to reflect this, it is in our power to do so. The choice is ours.
Gosh. I wonder why that song wasn't a hit.
Great artists but they didn't do anything different to others before, just did it their way which is what it is all about. The Beatles actually changed popular music forever and paved the way for all that followed. All pop acts at the time only used 3 chords and classical was the only music that progressed through more chords and sequences that modulated ect . The beatles took this classical approach and used it to write pop/rock. They were the1st, I must add they're not my favourite band .
I think Yoko all along wanted to be a performer, but really had little talent. I'm not saying she had none, but I really think her skills were stronger tactically. In other words, behind the scenes. John tried so hard to give her some front time.
John Lennon ❤️
One day they'll discover that the screaming of Yoko is just like the screaming we did when we were still living in caves. But I admit: ice cream and popmusic is more our thing today.
There seemed to be more freedom to discuss controversial topics in the 70's and the time in which to digest it, even if it was not socially accepted. John and Yoko would have been cancelled overnight today.
A disastrously personal interview dominated by Yoko followed a still young Lennon delivering two chord songs with crappy session guys and a clueless singer. So effin sad!
Shirley was so concerned about the world that she neglected her own daughter.
