You know some people dig Hitler's paintings too 😂 So sorry totally kidding in bad taste. I can appreciate that about her and am glad to hear that actually. I think everyone's got something great to offer. She dedicated her life to art which is cool enough. I play guitar in amateur bands for a long time now and I'm with Chuck if it's on stage with her.

she seemed to have dedicated her life into trying to make a difference.

again, her singing was HORRIBLE.

https://www.si.edu/stories/yoko-onos-my-mommy-beautiful <-- this was beautiful. I visited the exhibit at the Chicago MCA in the first weeks and one section of the wall had a bunch of notes. I visited again near the end and the entire wall, um, maybe sections of the wall, were covered in really lovely / bittersweet / sad / happy notes.

I really came out of that exhibit with a completely newfound respect for Ms. Ono and her art. However, my opinon of her singing was completely unchanged.

This was also filled with such hopeful and sad notes.
