I had read the funniest thing, yesterday. I had read that Yoko Ono's voice had resembled the sound of a barrel full of cats being set on fire. That comment was absolutely hilarious and quite descriptive. So, being a glutton for punishment, I had to listen to her for myself. Oh my goodness is all that I have to say!

Yoko Ono is a brilliant artist. Her work may be a bit odd, but sometimes, as in the case of "Bad Dancer", her work is really quite extraordinary.

John Lennon wasted millions of dollars (much of it coming out of Apple)and hundreds of hours trying to turn Yoko into even a mild success! Yoko has ZERO musical ability! She should not even be considered for ANY musical recognition! Her greatest claim to fame is breaking up the Beatles, and taking over Lennon's mind, body, and soul!

Are we still honestly having this conversation?

Look- Yoko didn't break up The Beatles. Even if Lennon and Ono never met, the group was combustible and brittle. Their inability to organize the band post-Brian Epstein, their proclivity to make stupid financial decisions in his absence, the unbelievable pressure of being the 20th century's most iconic musicians, Lennon's laziness and politicization clashing with McCartney's perfectionism and pop instincts, and Harrison's growing discontent with being a junior member of the group would have collectively finished off The Beatles handily without Yoko's help.

Secondly, Yoko was an important avant-garde artist, even if her repertoire isn't any of our cups of tea. Had she never met Lennon, she would probably be mentioned in the same breath as John Cage, Robert Barry, Joseph Kossuth and other important conceptual artists of her era. I'll grant that she nudged Lennon into musical directions to which he wasn't particularly well suited, but Lennon ruined her career just as much as she torpedoed Lennon's. She'll always, unfortunately, be remembered as Lennon's widow first, and her artistic work will unfortunately be either forgotten or misremembered.

Well, I feel like if she was inducted it likely wouldn't be under performer, if she ever was inducted. It would most likely be for the non-performer category since she was more of the one who helped John's solo career.

I don't get her. For me it's a great big NO!

Yoko for the HOF is beyond a great big no.
