Was probably stoned. But so what

Man this woman never finishes a sentence!

ohhh Yoko seems like such a good woman, and she's gotten so much grief. God bless her

what a man

Speaking too much truth there for this system which incidentally is still here and worse than ever

Stop using that AI PHOTO... Lennon couldn't smile in 1980, his nose would have fallen off 😂

damn,he was so skinny in the latter years its scary

Same clueless lefties then as now. Honestly, what t f do 20-year-olds know about anything? So what we have here is a bunch clueless students interviewing a clueless rockstar. 'Cos let's face it, Lennon was a very talented musician and song writer, but far from the sharpest tool in the box when it came to other matters. And Yoko Ono... Give me a f*cking break!

Why am I listening to Yoko over talking John? Go away, interloper!

Amen. Make me cry😢😢😢😢❤

Laurie Kaye, one of the interviewers, said she feels guilty because they all saw the guy after the interview. Nobody thought he would hurt John.

Is this YOU? If all you are is what you imagine John Lennon was, I pray you are as young as possible. If you are as old as 18 or 20, it may be too late. Alas, it's probably too late for all of us. Failing IS an option.

I had to start an Stop this John Lennon Oko Real Raw Storyline's. Sean Ono Julian Lennon... A Personal Thanks To Shi Heng Yi..JAPAN. HUEL. IT IS IN OUR HEART

I had just graduated from college and watched Monday Night Football when Howard announced that he had been shot and was dead. I couldn't believe it. How could this happen when he was just releasing his best work in years. It drove home that life is precious, but life is not your own. You can lose it or have it taken from you in a moment.

This creepy voice of Ono ruins the interview in the first minute. If only this guy stayed in the UK where he belonged.

So very much was killed with those five bullets. So hard to hear this and to know he didn't live to see the next day. Jesus.

You can't convince me that Lennon's assassination was not connected to Reagan being elected just a month before. Lennon would have said things that the Repugnants wouldn't approve. Lennon was a thorn in Nixon's side and the CIA made sure it wouldn't happen again.

yoko , to this day, is an escapee from a mental institution

Saddest event in history so hard to understand why it happened

I love this interview but it’s so painful

Well I always liked Yoko,figured if John Lennon loved her she must be incredible, that's just me...❤

Your introdroductory description is spot on! Your outlook is so refreshing! Good luck to you!

I couldn't listen to more than five minutes of Yoko just droning on and on like she's so important. What in the world did John ever see in her? 🙄

Wish the Yoko parts had been edited out

While explaining his meaning and intention behind "Power To The People", at the 1:57:50 mark, John describes the German people as being "hypnotized by Hitler". I can only "imagine" that John would have described the tRump cult today in the same exact way.

Well now...I had to skip through again and again because it seems that the first 30 minutes or so is only the Japanese harpy blah-ing on and on. No, I don't accuse her of breaking up the Beatles, I just do not like her at all. She is a talentless succubus. Who has been leeching off of Lennon since she met him.

1:31:04 😔 1:35:56 🤧

Indescribably sad and infuriating, no matter how much time passes.

Thanks for posting this wonderful deep, touching, funny, serious, insightful, great, unique interview - made my day and it gave me a lot of new ideas and hope! What a tragedy that the world could not get more of John Lennon in the years to come...

Why’d they always interview Yoko as though she added anything of substance, she didn’t.

So Sad....You can really hear John coming into maturity. It seemed like he really was about to take off as a more complete person. He was robbed of so much of his best years. I have mixed feeling about Yoko. I think she really loved him. But, her treatment of Julian Lennon after Johns death was just deplorable. And, it is nice that John spent so much of the 70s as Yokos cheerleader with her artistic offerings. But, I just dont see the talent or anything she did as an artist being worthwhile or ahead of her time. John mentions the B52s as being influenced by Yokos agonizing screeching. The B52s had a heavy sort of funk and dance beat mixed with a bit of new wave punk influence. I am not hearing Yoko influence anywhere. But, then John was always a great salesman for Yokos tone deaf squeeling.

Maybe John was to honest for this world?

I'm so glad John got to spend time with Sean. They have a deep connection. It is not over. They will be together again.

I met John Lennon in New York, at what turned out to be his favorite cafe, the Cafe Fortuna. There was no room inside so I was offered the patio and was seated in the corner with two couples on either side. I’m a cartoonist and was on deadline, somewhat in a hurry. The guy next to me was smoking and the smoke wafted past me every few seconds. To make matters worse, I could sense him looking at what I was doing…cartooning. Suddenly, I was in a cloud of his smoke and I turned to him …irritated. He had dark sunglasses and he sarcastically said “Sorry Senator!”. I turned back to my work, a little shaken. I knew that voice…that nose (he had a hat). It was John Lennon! My god, I just offended John Lennon! He was with an Asian woman but it was not Yoko. What astonished me was that he was so pale…so thin and a bit gaunt. Much later I discovered that he had loved cartooning as a teen. What I should’ve done is apologize and maybe get on my knees, groveling! “I’m not worthy! I’m not worthy!” He would be dead in 3 months …

To much Yoko always babbling

Musicians shouldn’t be talking, they should just make music. Pretentious people this John and Yoko

When John Lennon died, a lot more was lost than his art and music. He had a lot of influence over people in his generation, and I think our political leaders we have today, some, I think, Lennon would have spoken his mind about, Trump being one of them.

Love and peace is powerful, and that power instills fear in people who don't want it. When you have someone as revered and high-profile as John promoting a message of positivity and love and peace, that scares some people. It's odd that some humans feel that way, but it's consistent throughout history. Same thing happened to Kennedy. He wanted to make a better world and some people were so afraid of that that someone decided to wipe him off the face of the earth. I don't agree with that mentality, and it shouldn't be that way, but humans have evolved in a way that is fearful of idealism and equal rights and all this stuff. It's nuts; I don't understand it, but that seems to be the way we are.

Just a few hours from being shot and killed by Jose Perdomo.

"Sgt Lennon" hahahha hes awesome..

Does everyone really know what love is...???

I think a lot of you need to understand that this interview was angry and for a very big reason. The Beatles had just broken up, and John was being sued by his best friend, even though he himself had been told to stay quiet about it for an entire year. John was bitter, and his interviews in 1980 show a very different person who’d had time to think and reflect on a lot of things

I wish she'd been allowed to scream over the top of every beatles track. Would have reallt added to the art.

This was recorded literally hours before he was slaughtered by the US government, and they used the same lone nut scenario that they used when the took the lifes of JFK and RFK, Martin Luther king, ect ect, they take mentally vulnerable people and through the CIA MK ultra mind control programme, they literally hypnotize these mentally challenged people, but I GUARANTEE YOU THAT THE US GOVERNMENT WAS INVOLVED IN JOHNS MURDER... Hassan hassan who had absolutely no memory of the shooting of Robert f Kennedy, but at his flat were all these rhymes about how kiling Robert Kennedy, and you see the exact same thing with mark chapman, had books with similar rhymes like, ( the phoney must die says the capture in the rye ) and its just got all the classic hallmarks of the MK ultra mind control programme..

One of the worst nights of my life. It was a mind altering acknowledgement that humans don’t deserve to called more advanced beings than any other creature. Humans are animals like all the rest and, in some ways, worse for having developed warped brains. John was a great gift from the Universe and we just didn’t deserve him.

Nada mais que o tempo para por tudo as claras. O John Lennon falou muita merda, tomou posturas ridiculas sob a tutela da Yoko. Trocou sua autenticidade e identidade e virou um personagem patetico nas maos de uma pessoa que nu8nca conseguiu se impor como artista, nem com todo o dinheiro que tem e nem com a inssistente ajuda dele. As pessoas nao se interessam por ela ate hoje.

Hes the most interesting person in music history.

私は何かを依頼されてとかやっていたわけではないから。 日本の人達は本当に全員全てがもう鳥肌が立つほどに😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢😢

I had the pleasure to interview Laurie Kaye who was co-interviewer on that fateful day. As you can hear here she asked the most insightful questions
