One of the funniest things about John that people don’t mention often enough is how he interrupts Yoko constantly. He just barrels over everything she tries to say
Yoko was so frustrated because she couldn't interject her opinion and perspective. Especially because she knew the interviewer was there for john, and he knew it too. So he spoke up. But one can see clearly that yoko wanted to both control the narrative and control john. His only private peace from her was when the world was watching. Betcha he was in trouble after that interview was over.
Ha ha ha, you’re probably right. Even her son said she was an extremely strict mother imagine her frustration with trying to be a star like john, and nobody was interested in the slightest and how much anger and resentment she aimed at him.
It's really kind of cringe watching these old interviews where Yoko is constantly trying to interject herself into the interview when it's clear that neither the interviewer or the audience cares about her opinion. She was simply unwilling to be like other musician's wives, to show some humility, and understand and know her place in the background, being supportive.
@@chrismanteris9093 I don't know Yoko Ono, but I know she was a very bright lady from an upper class Japanese family, she was a conceptual artist of renown, which is an intellectual pursuit, so she wasn't your everyday woman. They collaborated on their artistic life together, and she opened up John's consciousness. She literally was a witch, so she understood spiritual and occult concepts. And she was a woman, and in case you haven't realised that means she was very aware and formidable. Her thoughts and words and behaviours influenced John massively.
John almost has a contemporary Elvis haircut here. Yoko's had a pretty glamorous hair day for unknown reasons; might it have been to look her best for this interview?
A lot of commenters are ignoring the fact that this was an interview for the BBC's *Woman's Hour* programme on Radio 4. Yoko's presence, and her contributions, were welcomed. You're really showing your true colours with some of the comments here, fellas.
Harvey Philip Spector (Nueva York, 26 de diciembre de 1939-Stockton, California; 16 de enero de 2021),[1] conocido como Phil Spector, fue un músico, productor estadounidense. Considerado una de las figuras más influyentes de la historia de la música pop y el primer auteur en la industria de la música (involucrado en todas las etapas de la producción), su técnica de orquestación, el llamado muro de sonido (que él mismo describió como "una aproximación wagneriana al rock and roll"), consistente en grabar múltiples pistas de acompañamiento, superponiéndolas hasta crear un sonido compacto y algo apabullante, influyó en el trabajo de muchos otros artistas, como The Beach Boys y The Beatles, quienes lo llamaron para la grabación de Let It Be.[2]
Thought it was gonna be about John. Yoko is a POS... Cynthia found her in her home in one of her gowns. What kind of person would do that? JL lost my respect as well.
I don't think we should commercialized sex. But he said he doesn't want to share Yoko. And him saying we want to kill our partners to death is like how domestic cats grab creatures coz they want something they've never had and can accidentally kill it.

@adamhughes4442 it's an extremely stupid thing to say. People need to just stop trying to get on the hating Yoko train. How can you hate someone you dont even know? And all because he left a band? Its just a band at the end of the day. He wasnt happy anymore. If you loved John..then you need to be on board with Yoko too because he loved her and she made him happy. Isn't that what should matter most? Big deal that the Beatles broke up. Bands break up all the time and the members go on to make music on their own. I've always loved John Lennons music as a solo artist. People need to stop with the hatred.
His mother. He was needy and she exploited it for fame she never otherwise would have had; to have a wealthy benefactor from whom to sponge her hedonistic, waster’s lifestyle; and bankroll her thoroughly self-indulgent, talentless art projects.

Good to see footage of an interview rather than just the audio
Hard to believe Lennon was only 30 in this video.
The way he behaved around Yoko Ono was very different than the way he behaved when she wasn’t around.
He was more serious, but still John nonetheless.

Yeah I’m a Beatle/ Lennon …but I have to agree with your statement.
The way you behave around your cellmates is very different than the way you behave around the public.
He was more careful with his words when she was around..
Never sold out. Outwardly frosty and sharp; inwardly beautiful and caring. John will never die he lives on in all our hearts.
