Title: Real Love my Heiney
Post by: Beatle Ed on December 28, 2004, 11:06:24 PM
I am very disappointed! I went to Babys R Us and found a bunch of John Lennon's "real Love" Collection For babies. And it is a UGLY!!!!! I can't believe it, patchwork, stuff crap that they stick his name on and try to push it for ^40 a pop. Its Nasty!  And the stuff that was cute was for a cradle, and cradles are darn near useless.   Whatever Yoko. Get some taste.

Couldn't agree more.

When you see her sitting in on the recording sessions, I just want to grab her and shout "lighten up you miserable git!" :)

It's what John would've wanted, his good name exploited and cheapened so Yoko can make a quick buck.

=\ Yep. Just plaster the name and his work onto anything, and people will buy it. And Yoko will be such a rich woman! Y'know, who cares that John would've been really PO'd to see this going on? His wife's got a bunch of cash off his name, and money's all you need -- screw respecting what someone would've wanted!

</random sarcasm an' general p*ssiness.>

^^;; Sorry, had to get it all out of my system for the time being.

I dunno... How do we know John wouldn't have wanted it? Maybe he was planning to do it for Sean or a future child... Maybe he really liked the idea of it... There is a lot to John that many of us here don't know... Actually... out of 100%, most of us here only know about 15%, including his music... so who's to say he wouldn't have wanted this?

And think about John's personality... I'm sure he doesn't look negatively on Yoko for making money... Even though to us, she's rich enough, John might be thinking otherwise... And isn't the money going to charity, or am I just losing my mind?

Anyway, John obviously loved money, and a lot of it, I might add... so why take offense?

It's just that, everywhere you turn, Yoko is slapping his face on some shoddy product in the name of "peace" and "love" and such like. That makes things so commercial.

You're right Mairi... And I used to think that too... That John didn't care about money, or society... but then I took another look at his life... I think he died with at least one mansion probably a few cars and a (what?) billion dollar estate with even more riches coming in every day? I'm not slander John or his name, but he's only human like you and me and was born with a natural addiction to wealth... It's not like I'm trying to put him down while he's in his grave... He's probably one of the few people I actually could respect, if only for his musical contributions to the world... But like I said, he's only human

I'm sure he doesn't really care either way :)
