    Ono's sound is called vocal percussion and is an abstract art form of music. She can actually sing like we are used to but she actually went to school to learn to make these noises and is highly regarded among artists who like abstraction in their arts. Takes all kinds, ya know.

      People do realise that they have the option of not constantly listening to her music and trawling through her videos if they don’t like her sound right? I don’t care to listen to artists whose sound I don’t like.

      Paul says in another video that Abbey Road Studios was getting rid of their harpsichord, Celeste (?), and mellotron, so he bought them and put them in his Hog Hill Mill studio. Since that’s where they recorded this, that’s the former Abbey Road instrument that was used in Beatles recordings. Also “Piggies.”

    Sean wanted to hear stories of his dad when he was young so went to see Paul with yoko and Paul showed him his recording studio and then ended up recording this with Linda and his kids and yoko and Sean - fact spur of the moment and can tell they were all having fun making it as opposed to thinking about making a song

      Yoko herself, at age 12, only survived the atomic bombings because she and her younger brother were sent away to live in the
      countryside. Still, her once-affluent family lost everything in the war and her recollections of the time are marked by extreme hunger, with her and her sibling often forced to "imagine meals."
      “Lying on our backs, looking up at the sky through
      an opening in the roof," she recalls, "we exchanged menus in the air and used our powers of
      imagination to survive.” Out of this, however, came poems which later formed the basis of the classic Lennon/Ono composition "Imagine".

      It was not intended to be a "hit" -- unlike "Walking on Thin Ice", which was the last thing John Lennon completed work on before his murder. He declared on his final day alive that "This is going to be your first #1 hit, Yoko!"
      And while it's original 1981 release did not even make it into the Top Forty, 23 years later it *did indeed* become the first of a record-setting 13 consecutive #1 hits for Yoko between 2003-2017 on the Billboard Dance/Club Chart!
      As a result, in addition to co-writing "Imagine" with Lennon, which many consider the most beloved song of the rock era, Yoko on her own is officially listed as the 11th most popular Dance Music artist of all time.
