As you either know or presumed, I’m a big Beatles fan.  I idolize their music.  As musicians, I personally believe they can do almost no wrong.

But I’ve also learned a lot by watching them as people.

I’ve learned that all drugs are bad. 

I’ve learned that no matter how much you preach about love and peace, it means nothing if you can’t even get along with the people closest to you.

I’m sure you know about the fighting that went on within the Beatles, and after they broke up.  They could hardly forgive each other.

Since John Lennon’s death, his widow, Yoko and Paul McCartney have had a bad relationship, to say the least. 

Last week Yoko continued their battle at an awards ceremony:

"I'll tell you a story about John," she told the audience. "He often used to wake up in the middle of the night and ask me, 'Why do people cover Paul's songs so much, but never mine?'

"I used to tell him, 'It's because you are a talented songwriter. You don't just rhyme June with spoon. And you are a very good singer - lots of people would be too afraid to cover one of your songs.'

"Then I would make him a cup of tea, and he would be okay. I just miss that sort of moment that we had."

McCartney fired 2 day ago:

"She's John's wife so I have to respect her for that, but I don't have to do any further. I don't think she's the brightest of buttons.

"I don't want to get in a bun fight but she's said some particularly daft things in her time.

"Yoko is something else. Her life is dedicated to putting me down, that's what she seems to do all the time.

"But she will notice that I attempt very strongly not to put her down, I have respect for her as my former comrade’s wife."

How come people who profess to ‘give peace a chance’ and ‘let it be’ can’t hear their own words?
