yoko ono, get a life,, get over it and let it be !!!

How the heck did this “hot” news item slip onto Yahoo’s home page? You used a quote from 1987 (1987!) to rustle up some eyeballs? Such a tactic reflects a rookie begging for attention. I can’t even believe I’m responding to this… but somebody’s gotta call you on such a ridiculous “scoop.” If you knew anything at all about the Beatles, Yoko, and Paul, you’d know that any acrimony between them is long gone, and that the surviving parties patched things up a long time ago.

This is as much of a non-story as you could have drummed up. You oughta turn in your paycheck for this one, Zach.

do you know what yoko ono and ethiopian’s have in common? both are still living off of dead beetles, and when Sir Paul dies, WHO will she “blame” then?, does she have a mirror?

there are no bad guys; the Beatles were finished …period!

This is not news. This is OLD news.

this is how the press operates now. Some irrelevancy to draw attention (especially away from real issues like the failing economy/fiscal cliff etc)for people to consider this “news”.

Next will be follow up articles about this becaause after all this is much more important than the “fundamental transformation of our country”. And a majority of fools will glomm onto this “news” to the exclusion of diminishing of our rights. But this is so much more “sexy”!

Right, Yoko — The Beatles broke up because Paul kept them together. That certainly makes sense. It couldn’t possibly have been because the guy who had started out being the leader of the band was suddenly unable to even go to the toilet without his wife holding his hand!

I think this might be a hot news item today because back in 1987 people gave it the attention it deserves — none. We should continue to do so.

That’s ridiculous. First. John Lennon was infatuated with Yoko at the time. He was doing alot of drugs. He wasn’t interested in alot of different things artistically. George Harrison was beginning to “feel his oats” and was beginning to feel the “yoke” of being a Beatle. Paul realized the Beatles were still by far the biggest act in the world. Paul was always working on material. He never “left” the Beatles. He kept on working and always had his eye on the ball. Paul wanted to stay focused and wanted the Beatles to continue as a “tight” unit. Both John and George were kind of ambivalent at the time. They didn’t know what they wanted to do. So yes. Paul kind of “took the reigns” to a certain degree………because someone had too. As time has gone on I think that Paul has kind of become the “whipping boy” for the Beatles. Heck. Paul wanted to keep the Beatles together and continue like nothing ever changed. It was the others who didn’t know what they wanted. I think it has also become very clear over the years that John Lennone was no “day at the beach.” John had some ongoing “issues” in his life that he needed to work through and I don’t think ever really did. {By the way. I love the Beatles……all of them.} The Paul situation is kind of like Jagger with the Stones. Some people now say Jagger was a meglomaniac. How is that? The Stones were losing money after getting ripped off by their managers. Keith Richards was a serious heroin addict so at some point Jagger said, “I’m taking the reigns. I went to the London School of Economics so I’m going to oversee the money and if Keith isn’t gonna get his act together I’m gonna kind of control the band…..and he did. What was he supposed to do?

You mean myriad factors! NOT a myriad of factors. If you aspire to good journalism don’t use words you don’t understand.

face it it was going to happen john said he was tired of his songs always being on the b side george was ticked because he realy never got to many of his songs on and poor ringo was just tired of the b/s imagine being that tight for all those years day in and out it was bound to happen so no matter what they split them selves up not just one person

after all this time…who really cares anyway?????

I never want to see her name attached to the Beatles ever again!!!! YOKO SHUT UP ALREADY!!!!!
Who cares anymore …you jealous because Sir Paul Mc Cartney still can book top headliner on a gig and you are making stupid looking clothing? GO AWAY!!!!!!!! At times like this, I ask myself, why was it Linda Mc Carney who had to die young, instead of freakin YOKO??????

yoko needs to shut up, nobody would even know who she is without her snaring lennon…. i’d bet most guys out there have experienced hooking up with a girl/woman only to find out that she would rather they didnt hang with their friends anymore, and JL was so strung out at the time, it was easy for her to take him over

Paul still rocks, Ringo is still cool! it’s sad George & John are no longer with us.. It’s also sad anybody would give Yoko an interview or any time at all!!! It she is an artist’ or anything relevant, then I’m Picaso. The most depressing part of hearing of the Beatles is hearing from HER AGAIN!!!! If she had any self respect at all she would give Julian all the $$ and leave the Beatle fans in PEACE.

All we are saying is give Peace a chance! All we are saying is go away Yoko.

Old news. That quote was given in 1987 and it is being brought up now? Why? Please stop hashing old news and selling it as headline grabbing new news. Puleeze…..

Since yoko, knows nothing about music and has never shown intelligence, of any kind, why the heck should we care what she says or thinks about ANYTHING. Just quit reporting on or about her. She in not relevant, at all. The only thing she has done, of note, was marry John Lennon, that is it! Move on, to more important things and people, which is just about anything or anyone else.

And this was news in what decade?
