Yoko Says Sorry to Paul
Yoko Ono is setting the record straight.
The oft-maligned widow of John Lennon has apologized to Paul McCartney over comments made last month at England's Q Awards that insinuated that McCartney was a bad songwriter.
"I certainly did not mean to hurt Paul, and if I did, I am very sorry," she says in the latest issue of Rolling Stone.
Accepting an award on behalf of Lennon, Ono told the audience of her late husband's insecurities and how he would ask her "why they always cover Paul's songs and never mine?"
"I said, 'You're a good songwriter, it's not June with spoon that you write,' " she recalled.
The comments did not go over well with some Beatles fans, who, knowing Ono and McCartney's contentious history, viewed the "June with spoon" line as a dig at Sir Paul.
But Ono says she did not mean for the comments to come across so harshly, and that her remarks were blown out of proportion by reporters looking to stoke the on-off feud.
"It's amusing at best and it's the kind of thing that I've witnessed the press to do many times," she told England's Independent late last month in the aftermath of her Q Awards appearance. "I think Paul's a great songwriter."
The Ono-McCartney battles go back to the late 1960s, when he suggested that she was behind the Beatles breakup. Over the years their relationship has remained dysfunctional. Ono said she was "hurt" when McCartney failed to invite her to the memorial service of his late wife, Linda. Most recently, Ono threatened legal action after McCartney reversed the traditional Lennon-McCartney songwriting credit on his 2002 live album, Back in the U.S.
At least Ono has one thing in common with McCartney these days--a healthy lust for life.
The 72-year-old has kept busy lately logging some frequent flier miles in the process.
In October, she helped the city of Coventry and one of the city's famed Cathedrals launch Coventry Peace Month.
Also last month, Ono performed Beatles songs at Tokyo's Nippon Budokan hall to honor Lennon around what would have been his 65th birthday.
And Tuesday, she mingled with royalty in the form of Prince Charles at an event in New York.
Ono nearly upstaged Charles' bride, Camilla, at the MOMA cocktail party by wearing a hat with a prim black brim, per reports.
