Flashermac Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 Allegedly, Yoko decided she was going to marry a Beatle ... any Beatle. She first made the moves on George, who laughed her off. Then she went after John -- and snagged him. Yoko was a known flake. My dad's secretary was a Scouser and somewhere along the line lived in the same building as Yoko -- in London maybe? Anyway, the secretary told us that Yoko had decided she was an artist. One day she asked to borrow the secretary's step ladder. She failed to return it, and several weeks later the secretary went to see an art show put on by Yoko. There was her step ladder ... painted up and with things piled on it! I don't think she ever got her step ladder back. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chuckwoww Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 I don't know where she got the ladder but the bit about the art show where she met Lennon is true. I was there at the time. How's that for name-dropping? http://articles.absoluteelsewhere.net/Articles/john_met_yoko.html Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flashermac Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 This was before Yoko met John, so it had to be a different art show. But if you want to drop names, the secretary was a close cousin of Anthony Armstrong-Jones. She once told me of her amazement when he married Princess Margaret. She said, "I always thought cousin Tony was gay." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bibblies Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 BelgianBoy said:Ono was always a cunt. Talentless screaming bitch versus the guy who wrote or co-wrote Hey Jude, Penny Lane, Yesterday, Let it be, I saw her standing there, She loves you, Can't buy me love, Blackbird, Maybe I'm Amazed, Live and Let Die, We can work it out, Ticket to ride, Lady Madonna, She's Leaving Home, For No One, Eleanor Rigby... The last three especially destroy the myth that Paul couldn't do meaningful beautiful lyrics. You could write the words of each of those songs down and they'd still stand up on their own even without the music. As for his voice, listen to him singing "I'm Down", "Long Tall Sally", "Kansas City" or "Lady Madonna" and tell me he can't sing. As you said, she's a cunt.

pattaya127 Posted October 15, 2005 Report Share Posted October 15, 2005 again, not nagging at Sir paul's songwriting abilities, but: 1) except for 2, all the songs you cite are Beatles period. I mean, John (George too, not long though), wrote songs afterwards that can easily top, for many, the ones he wrote with the Beatles. 2) If I am correct, each one (save Ringo : sang the songs they wrote. "She loves you" (my fav') and "ticket to ride", are John's. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
