Yoko

[Dillinger]

What if Yoko Ono had met Keith Richards before she had met John Lennon? Would anything have been the same?

 

[Starfish]

I think that if you really think about it and consider all things envolved that with the likely hood that inevitably all things would have....Uh,..... I think I've gone cross-eyed!

 

[Sparky Kronkite]

Of course dude.....

The answer would be no.

And......

Believe it or not, I'm doing a TV show in the very near future - and she's the main guest. I'll get to meet her.

We'll see? I'm not totally enamered with the woman.

 

[Dillinger]

Do me a favor Sparky, ask her to please explain Approximately Intimate Universe?

Thanks dude!

 

[Isabella Thorne]

Don't blame it on Yokie .... I never did ...

John and her were like two virgins ...

you aren't enamered with her Spark? oh dear ... i see ... that's what they're calling it nowadays ... that Yokie is hot .... tsssssssssss

Keith and Yoko? ... oh god no ... Keith likes the models.

 

[Vlad]

I don't think Keith Richards could tolerate her, or she him--don't think they would jell at all--

Don't blame it on Yokie .... I never did ...

I'm not blaming it on Yoko - I kind of like her, in fact... and even liked her screeching on side two of that live Plastic Ono Band concert record...

I was just wondering how and what might be different...

But that doesn't quite answer the question - would anything be different? I mean Yoko and Keith could have met before she met John and something other than they becoming a couple could have affected the turn of events...

Maybe Yoko would have decided that it was a worthy artistic endeavor to find out if she could saturate her body with as much drugs as Keith?

No darling ... no woman could ever accomplish that task ...

Marianne Faithfull already tried that once ... and failed ...

no ... as much as womankind everywhere wish we could step into Keith's drug-drenched shoes ...

alas we pale in comparison to wherever Keith went ... when he went there ..

 

[Dillinger]

Good point... no one, man or woman, could reach the extreme drug saturation as Keith and survive... he has set the bar higher then us mere mortals could ever hope to reach...

So then - what if Yoko realized that Keith had made the ultimate artistic statement in terms of his own drug induced body and decided that there was no point in anyone else ever doing drugs and that we should turn all our drugs over to Keith?

he's not getting my stash .... lmao ...

The Children would have been Uber-Ugly

I'll never understand...

The Beatle could have chosen anyone, and when they did...

Yoko iz as much an artist as Sylvester Stallone...

I loved his song Dance to the Music!!!

 

[insideShiraz]

Have you ever seen Rock 'n Roll Circus

Clapton can hardly keep from bustin' out laughing at Yoko

 

[Dillinger]

Sure Have

[insideShiraz]

I like that...

Did you know that Tony Iommi played for Jethro Tull on this one?

 

[Cheri]

Maybe she would have decided that the US was an artistically backward place and gone back to ?? (Hong Kong, Japan or where ever the heck she was from) and started doing Kabuki. Then again, she's need the drugs.

Be My Yoko Ono

The Beatle could have chosen anyone, and when they did...

... when John did choose, he chose Yoko ... and yes he could have had any beautiful woman he wanted ... a model ... an actess ...

oh yikes ... you know what? wow! what i was talking about in my "geek" thread ... i am not sure if you read what i said ...

about how successful / good looking men do not choose "geeky" looking women as partners ... i couldn't think of one example .... well now i have ... leave it to John ... the original thinker ... he looked beyond exterior features ... he saw something in her that others did not ...
_________________________
Spark ... you should ask her what she thinks of this song ... i have often wondered that

If there's someone you can live without, then do so.
And if there's someone you can just shove out, do so.

You can be my Yoko Ono
You can follow me wherever I go
Be my, be my, be my Yoko Ono.

Isn't it beautiful to see two people so much in love?
Barenaked as two virgins hand in hand and hand and hand in glove.
Now that I'm far away it doesn't seem to me to be such a pain.
To have you hanging off my ankle like some kind of ball and chain.

Oh no, here we go, our life is just one big pun.
Oh no, here we go as Yoko sings
Aieee!

I know that when I say this
I may be stepping on pins and needles.
But I don't like all these people slagging her for breaking up the Beatles.
Don't blame it on Yokey!)[/i]

If I was John and you were Yoko,
I would gladly give up musical genius,
just to have you as my very own, personal Venus.
(Hit it!)

You can be my Yoko Ono
You can follow me wherever I go
Be my, be my, be my Yoko Ono.

~Barenaked Ladies~

Ah - an interesting alternate history. Perhaps that would then have led to a Kabuki revival so strong that it broke through international boundries with the result being that Kubuki overcame Rock music as the most popular form of entertainment on a global scale?

 

[Dillinger]

Quite a change, don't you think? From Black Sabbath to Jethro Tull? I understand that they smoked Tony's fingernails. Personally I think they picked the wrong fingernails - I'm sure Keith Richards fingernails would have provided a much more intense high.

Imagine ... just imagine.

 

[Cheri]

Doubt that, Dillinger dear. I can't watch Kubuki without snickering at the "singing" no matter how beautiful the story or acting.

That Jethro is sooooooo dumb

Did you know that Tony Iommi played for Jethro Tull on this one?

oh hey Shiraz ... that Jethro guy ... i heard he's really dumb ... yea ... i heard that he's thick as a brick

 

[Dillinger]

Even worse... he's got Locomotive Breath.

So that leads me back to the original topic. What if Yoko had locomotive breath? Would John still have fallen in love with her?
