I feel this us an offin axed questium. Cuz like, why DID she take him
back?? I Mista Charlie cant figga it out. Rich cant..but of courae
he cant figga nuthin. But me and many scolla's have axed, Why did
Yoke taks John back??


Think, people, think. Use logic, people, use logic. Why did Yoke
tzke John bzck?

She sent him away, to LA, cuz he wasnt gittin it. Into the hodships
and hotbreak of the Los Angeles dessit. The dust, the dry eind, the
falsya, thd hopelesesst. Where there is no Yoke there is no hope.

He failed. He faled where she succeeded. He couldnt creatd no music
or ott....but SHE..created Aprixinimitelu infernite uniburse, Feelin
thd Space, and Coffin Piece. He...wondid round, stoned (like mista
C) , drunk (on vodka)...on angel dust and PCP..unable to leaf
tips...with only mince fer guydance...mince prolly tried ta hackim
off...or more.

So why DID she take him back?

Because o the insite..the REALISATION...that john was not the
problem...


Society was.

Yoko wasn't really interested in John "the pain in the ass." She was
interested in his money, power and connections. Yoko tried to become
rich and famous on her own during the lost weekend, but she realized
she'd never make a living at it.

IMO the turning point was the Elton John concert at MSG. Yoko saw
the packed crowd, heard the loud cheers for Lennon and Elton, and
thought to herself, "I want that for me!" Even though she was jealous
of John, Yoko realized she needed him to be rich and famous. And that
is what she wanted more than anything.

Yoko also came to realize that John was falling in love with May and
that if she did not rope him in soon, he might leave her.

John...

Also quote allot of men was seen in pubuc with the Yoke at this
time...reacherin fer her, all desprite and implorin...desprite fur her
touch
..I know cuz I was one o them...

Now the Elton John concit...your rite this is wete it happened...the
Yoke finely consenteted ta take him back...cuz she daw him on the
stage...and she felt he was lonely obscurd unappreciated and doomed ta
failyz widdout her music love...she TOOK PITY on himger
Chrissakes...and thats why she aloud him ta retutn ti
o thd Dakota...ta raise Sean and bake bread....no more music cuzzit it
was like drawn circles ova and ova...she aloud gim ta fimely becomd

"Feeling the Space." Yup . . . . that was probably a reference to all
the unsold seats at her concerts.

I agree with you. If you look at the bizarre film of J&Y rolling around
naked taken shortly before he died, you can see he is clearly more into
the moment than her. You can see his warmth and passion. The only thing
she shows are her tits.

You mean her durian tits, lodge spikey and lopsidered
..nuthin wrong wid dat, some en (cough::charlie::cough) like that
style o breast.

Now the funny thing bout dat film is, it was Yokes idear origionally
for it to be a video fir her orgasmic epic "Kiss kiss kiss". ..wish is
funny cuz she mastibates in that song, though John pleadered with het
for her company and love in "stottin oba"...but ger thd video, Yoko
wanted John innit to.

Which makes me wonda...could John make Yoke come or did she pefer bein
wid herself??

That's for sure. And I think the only reason she had Sean was so that
she could be permanently linked to John's bank account. Without kids, he
could pretty much divorce her and walk away without paying a cent. With
the kid, she had her grubby hands in his money. Had he lived, it would
have been ugly between them.

Let's talk about John's music: If you listen to his early takes
of his songs, they're good. But by the time you hear the
released takes he's out of gas.

I'm not sure what you mean. Are you saying you like John's demos
better than the finished songs?

I'm saying that I like the "band demos" better than the released
versions of some of his songs...and he's even singing out of
tune in the rehearsals of "I'm Steppin' out". Have you heard
the band rehearsal of "Cold Turkey"? It sounds much better
than the released version cause in the released version he's
singing like he's weak. It's not too convincing.

I've never heard the band demo of Cold Turkey, although I've heard an
acetate of an early mix with an earlier lead vocal, prior to
re-recording. The finished vocal was better. But I've also heard an
acoustic double-tracked demo, and that has a lot of energy to it.

When I think of early Lennon takes, I'm minded of the second side of
Menlove Avenue, which is early takes of Walls And Bridges songs. They
sound down and depressing, sort of like the long-gone ghost of John
Lennon, just too depressing for me to listen to.

I think I've heard that one. The one I'm talking about might be in
youtube. I'll try to remember to check later.

I think I've heard that one too.

I find both sides of Menlove Avenue very depressing. It
shouldn't have ever been released. The songs are all
the same slow tempo, and it sounds like John is
sitting there drinking vodka or something. I doubt
John would have ever wanted that released.

Rock And Roll People is pretty good though. Should almost have been on
one of his own albums.

I never heard the band rehearsal of Cold Turkey. I think the single
that was released sounded unfinished.

However, I love John's live version of Cold Turkey during the One to
One concert, even though the band is sloppy at the end.
He really sounds like he is putting his heart and soul into it.

It's on youtube. John really belts it out . . . . When he sings about
the horrors of drug addiction, it's very convincing and moving. And
the band (Elephants Memory) is pretty good
except they get lost at the end of the song.

> I was expecting Yoko to sing.-

Yoko did perform a few of her songs at that concert. I think a couple
are on youtube. She was awful, just awful.

To make matters worse, the sound system at MSG was not the best. The
sound was quite echoey and distorted, at least for those sitting far
from the stage like me. Plus, the concert started late; there were
several different acts, and it took quite some time to set up between
acts. John and Yoko were saved for last, and by the time they came on,
it was late andthe audience was restless.

There were a few times when Yoko would speak or sing a song. She spoke
English with a heavy accent . . . . like someone who just stepped over
the boat from overseas. Add that to the fact that the sound quality in
general was poor, many people in the audience could not understand
what she was saying or singing. When Yoko would speak or sing, many
people in the audience started talking and ignoring her. There was an
instance or two when people booed.

Many people were very excited to see and hear John perform; we were
disappointed when Yoko took center state instead.

Years after John died, Yoko released an edited film of the concert.
Someone who is not familiar with the real concert would think that the
audience gave her a warm welcome when she performed. On the film,
there is an instance or two where the audience appears to be cheering
or clapping energetically as if they really enjoyed Yoko's
performance. The film does not show the reality.

See, that's why she needed John to be alive cause mostly they
only had to hear her sing when he was singing. I know you
don't agree but it makes sense. With John dead, a lot of
people would not go see her.

Right, not that she doesn't have a few fans of her own.

Well, at the TIME many in the auddience din't appreciate Yokes antics
or her singin...but have a ganda at the freakin Playboy intabiew.
Yoko says she and John was doin "allot of the punk and new wave stuff"
decades ago...meanin at the NYC concit!!! Thats why people din't
cheer or upplaud....cuz they want reddy yet for Yokes punk and new
wabe.

Today, Yokes songs git played in all the clubbs. Cuz today people
GRASP and URPRECIATE her invenshim, punk and new wabe.
