She was so beautiful

It shows how mentally messed up John was to mistreat Cynthia and fall all over himself for Yoko.

You love John's wife?

Stricknyne1 Do not feel sorry. When you get old, will learn that death can be welcome.

@@jimlaguardia8185 she wasn't that old. 75 is a rather young age for death these days.

Maybe they’re together in heaven now.

How and when did Cynthia die?😢👧

@@cindicraig2412-Cynthia died of cancer in 2016, I believe.

Love causes strange behavior, doesn’t it?

I didn't know Cynthia died???

What a wonderful human being Julian is all due th his mum's love and affection.

@@fieldsofgreen8857 I think Johns neglect was probably a lucky escape for Julian.

@@user-fq8rs7rz3i I totally agree with you!

I have nothing but disrespect for Yooko Uno and I could NEVER figure out what attracted John to that ! I always thought John to be highly intelligent until he got mixed up with her .

I think a lot of hate to Yoko was driven by the low key snide digs that people don't notice as bitchy, "Yoko she's a conceptual artist so an exhibitionist " so many double meaningings and micro aggression just there.

That's why they are called the lapdog fake media period.

Never believe the media. To steal a phrase of theirs: Consider the source.

How classy is it to relentlessly hammer on how pathetic and inferior your old love was and to proclaim to the world what a hopelessly deformed emotional cripple he was? Some would say not entirely "classy".

@@dixonpinfold2582 Some would say your comment is pathetic and inferior. Nothing better to do with your life?

@@dixonpinfold2582 ahhh yes. women should just let the men who abuse them be painted as the peace-loving visionaries we would all prefer for them to be

Agrée, listened to some interviews with Julian and he really does come across as a terrific down to earth guy. Not arrogant at all. The kind of person that would be enjoyable to know.

“wounded” is a much better and more accurate word

STRAWBERRY FIELDS FOREVER. A garden in Central Park put together by YokoOno in his memory. There are trees from all over the world. There is a little memorial to him, and South Africa is represented There as well. TheBeatles were banned for many years in South Africa - because of something Lennon said. I visited that memorial, and saw SA's participation on that Leoni Golding

Agreed

no one should...such a weaker practice of robbing others labor and creativity-- like all those great and unsung blues musicians who were robbed of their talent without seeing a penny, while the ugly trolls become rich.

I agree with everything that's said 😭Rip Ms.Cynthia🌷🌺🌼😭

What a great interview.. R I P Cynthia Lennon..🌼🌼🌼🌼

That says it all. Yoko acts as if she owns John.

Aye Absolutely

She was too good for John Lennon; YES, he was a great talent, but that should never excuse violence toward those whom one is supposed to love.

​@63Baggies She was too good for him. Miles and miles too good for him. He and yoko deserved each other.

He liked strong women

Tempted by the fruit of another.

He left cos Cynthia was too normal. Ono was anything but. I genuinely think Cynthia and their son were better off without him. Who would want to live a life of humiliation and deliberate cruelty? He really was a nasty creature.

I feel vindicated that she said John was the one with talent, not Yoko. It's interesting that John said Yoko was the closest thing to having a relationship with a man. I don't know that I would take that as a compliment if I were Yoko. Cynthia was kind to a fault, and far too forgiving of John.

What a classy woman . It’s beautiful how she says Julian is the blessing that was created by the marriage with John .

And John truly did love her! I do believe that John and Cynthia probably weren't meant to last; the LSD came between them long before Yoko fully entered the picture. However, it still breaks my heart to this day that Yoko had such a negative influence on John. And it was to the detriment of everyone around him who cared for him.

Hey, WAITAMINIT she looks nothing like the Cynthia at 70 yrs old , JUST LIKE PAUL!!!!!!

Chas Leask That’s an extremely dumb thing to say. Who looks the same at 25 as they do at 70? Do you think you’re gonna look the same? If so, you’re delusional.

A real pig of a wide with the second.

@@SeaStarTea I think you've just made one of the more intelligent posts on this vid, thank God! I agree very much with your assessment. Thank you.

Yoko was a D-M DOG !

The witch and she literally was one, should have auctioned off her son Sean's letters front John!

Yes, Julian had to buy at auction (profiting Yoko) his letter exchange with his own father.

Wow, bastards. I didn’t write that above beginning part. It popped up and won’t let me discard or edit. My writing starts at...it’s.

@@SuperAnimelover100 You shouldn't say that about her! You see John Lennon just wanted to date Cynthia.He wasn't in love with her. She tricked him and got pregnant then he married her! John thought he was too young to get married but he didn't want his son to grow up to be a bastard! And John Lennon lost his mother at a young age she didn't want him around because of her boyfriend and his father left him when he was small and return when he was famous! That's the way it was with John Lennon those are the facts! John Lennon needed a mother figure that's why he married Yoko plus she was 10 years older him. He needed that to survive! It may be hard thing for you to understand but that's the way it is!

Well said Ian.

Life was complex when people saw John... HE was an amazing puzzle of overconfidence, insecurity and anger issues. I loved him anyway.... And people loved him too! Cynthia and millions of others COULD NOT RESIST that about him!

I think he was just too young and had alot to learn and realize to see Cynthia for her wonderful qualities and who she really was. John went off to life bootcamp, so to speak. Cynthia and John were two very different types of people, and in terms of life experience they simply were not on the same page.

im sure he knew what he had more than you do.

@@nonebusiness4488 then why did they not stay together? Did you even listen to the interview and Cynthia's comments?

@@joleneloveland2942 they didn't stay together because john did not want to. because he left her for someone that he really loved. if i ever listened to cynthia's comments i don't remember them anymore. i remember what john said and did. he left because he did not love her. she bored him. he knew what he had and he didn't want it. what is confusing about this to you.

Annette Elliott she must have been a super mom,cause Julian is really a good person...💕

No matter what happens you never truly fall out of love with someone you fell in love with in the 1st place..Lennon I believe was never in love with Cynthia…his true love ( albeit an odious woman) was Yoko…she became the mother he never had.

@@garrybroadbent8297 No Cynthia was his first love!its just having a child that young as you are in the midst of beatlemania would mess up anyones head!Yoko came in at the end of the beatles coinciding with John's addiction to heroin which yoko prepared in his tea!How romantic!

@@garrybroadbent8297 In that c as it wasn't love but some kind of neurosis or psychopathy. The word for her is "onerous." John must have been really neglected as a child to prefer her.

How she entered her kitchen to find Yoko in her kimono and John in his .. “Cyn meet Yoko the woman I love “ and she proceeded to projectile vomit right there and fly to Patti or Mos house . They had been away in Spain. Yoko moved in. Both behaved despicable and heartless. Yoko - here’s hoping her Karma is clean now ?

coinciding or ? @@marksimons4108

It spells the E-N-D.

Doreen Pelletier You are 100% correct. I know this and exactly what Julian went through from my own personal experience. I would have rather taken a few beatings than been completely ridiculed and eventually ignored as if I never existed.

It seems like he was Extremely unstable and Cruel!!

I think it’s worse in the sense that if someone hits you, you know what you are dealing with, and at some point you are going to leave. Emotional abuse and neglect by a narcissistic man that every woman in the world would kill to date could mess up your head to the point of no return. You would always be like, What just happened? Is it me? What did I do? Poor lady.

Sounds like NPD.

He’s such a sweetheart best of parents ❤we love you Julian! He just released a record called JULES” great one! ⭐️⭐️

I heard he cried when Brian told him he HAD to get married because it could hurt his image

agreed. was there could be more of them.

jimmy foster you will not find one soul that likes Yoko but you will find great people loving Cynthia and Linda Eastman

IN A WAY I LIKE JOHN LENNON, BUT I THINK I LIKE CYNTHIA BETTER

Sometimes we know or hear about people that have everything and they don't appreciate it. At the end their lives were wasted. Drugs,fame, sex at the end was worthlessly. Pety...

Bless You Julian

👍✌

@@kjellhansen1387 she’s a better person! But he got all the praise’

Suaranya begitu lembut...menyejukkan...wanita yg baik dan pintar...saya sayang chintya dan julian

I enjoyed her books. "A Twist of Lennon" was very insightful.

I envy a signed copy

Amazing he couldn't see her or maybe he did but his demons and self destructive tendencies wouldn't allow him to fully surrender to the relationship

@@krackowkid6618 I think you are right.

Paul McCartney said in an interview on the Charlie Rose show that Lennon liked strong, bossy women, like his mother was, so that’s why he went for Yoko, trouble that she was. Kind of like Duchess of Windsor, Meghan Markle. Don’t get it, but some men like to be led around.

Yoko was his mom.

racist much?

@@lubazak636 Let’s talk about your spouse, what’s wrong with them at their core?

@@MarsCapone I would not enable a heroin addict. She did not do him any favors. Nothing racist about it. Yoko had dollar signs in her eyes.

No Chance In Hell For Me Cynthia Is Gorgeous Yoko Is A Steamier/Ugly

@@thomasjones2415 He must have wanted the eccentric oddities.

She put a spell on him. There.

@@thomasjones2415 John was looking for a mother figure and found it in Yoko! I can't stand that woman and am so very sorry that he ever left Cynthia - she is so beautiful!

Ikr Cynthia was the best

Beautiful, sincere heartfelt words !!!!!!!!!!!!!

Julia and I'm very sorry for the loss of your mom I didn't know this and I'm very truthful lie sorry it's very sad she was a terrific woman didn't know her that I've been reading about her and she was a terrific woman you're so privileged to have her as your mom she was a wonderful lady

Oh, come on, condolences, and all that. Haven't you got an idea on how many fathers just ditch their kids, sons for good?! And now everyone feels for Julian, oh so sorry etc. Why? Cause he's a famous guy's son, so what? Yes, it was not a nice story, sure. But our dad left two of his 5yo sons forever, went away to live his new life. And we didn't have any safety net, so we just got on with it. And so should have Julian, god bless him. Just get on with it. John had had much more drama in his life.

yes.

Absolutely.

That is true, family and friends know you better than yourself. 🌷

Yep ... Yoko is a classic narcissist. She separated and isolated John from his friends, family, his first-born son Julian ... and her "normal" became his normal. Thing is though, he allowed Yoko to do this.

Reminds me of Hairy and his wife.

@@deegralak-roe that’s what I thought 💭 and nutmeg and Harry are wokes too!

Nutmeg ? You 2 need a life ! Racists to the point of idiocy . This is about Cynthia Lennon.

Julian, is a very talented artist.. really ? he had a big head start over thousands of other aspiring pop singers who you will never hear about. He tried to sing like his dad in 1 single... talented artist who wants to copy his parents ? that's a new one

@@TimLondonGuitarist I think your summation is a bit harsh. He MAY not have been as talented as his father but then again--who is? There is a whole lot of room for talent to manifest between a no talent person and a John Lennon. Furthermore, considering how remarkable the likeness is between Julian and John, I don't think Julian had to "try" to sound like his father -- all he had to do was open his mouth.

@@Toberofthetrees There's not much room: I used to be a live music promoter. The opportunites for 'artists' who prefer to write their own songs etc are very limited: nobody wants to know about them except their mates, unless you've got a famous parent or similar

@@TimLondonGuitarist I understand what you mean on this note. It is undeniable that having a famous someone or notoriety for pretty much any reason is a MAJOR advantage. I heard that was why Slash kept his identity a bit under wraps until they achieved a little success. He didn't want anyone claiming nepotism or undue help because of his parent's connections. I do want to clarify one thing. When I said there was a lot of room, I wasn't referring to a lot of room for a lot of people to succeed. I meant that the evaluation of Julian's talent was not black and white between is he as talented as his father or not. John is gifted at the far end of the bell curve. Almost no one is, was, or will be as talented. Julian's talent can be a few levels beneath John's or even a bunch of levels beneath John's and still be significant when compared to Joe Blow from Cocomo.

@@Toberofthetrees The Slash parents worked in peripheral roles in the recording industry. He could've got contacts there but not the job with GnR. Julian is a bit sinister presenting himself as the entitled & jilted son ofJohn: got him nowhere. & there was the ridiculous idea that beatles should reform with him replacing John

Stern

He should have treated them both so much better. Particularly Julian imo

I agree. Very troubled

That’s an icon!😊😊 RIP CYN 🌹🕊️🕊️🕊️

Nancy Davis I thought he was cool and an sctivist but he us into his own belly button fluff.

John was in the eyestorm of Beatlemania when Julian was born. John was also very young. I see many photos of John being affectionate with Julian. I think it was Yoko who interfered because she told Cynthia she had to go through her to discuss Julian, and Cynthia said, no way.

@@mmb1572 Where did you here that one?? That's crazy! So, Yoko tried to become new mum to Julian? Lol

Thanks to Yoko.

@@mmb1572, I agree!! ANY woman that stands between a man and his children, is a jealous, insecure nasty bitch!! The fact that Yoko tried selling Julian's personal letters to his dad, shows what a greedy bitch she really is!!

+Alison Cain you say it best Yoko is a creepy manipulator. A few years ago there was an exhibit at the Rock & Roll hall of fame annex in New York City. I live near it so we went a few times and started to speak to the staff about John & his things. They told me how horrible Yoko was & very mean. There was a white phone in the exhibit that was a direct line from Yokos home to the exhibit. When it rang it could be answered by anyone nearest to it fan or staff. The staff refused to answer it because she was such a bitch. Verbally abusive & nasty. She would insist on firing employees she deemed unworthy. These people were sick of her. Cynthia seems like a very down to earth, kind woman.

Alison Cain ❤️☮️

Yes manipulated!

I agree. The other woman was and is a gold digger. She worked Lennon from the start and seriously doubt his genius status after all if he was so clever why didn't he see her coming.

so true.

Yoko sings in an Occidental scale, I suppose, to remain true to her Japanese roots. The only song, that I know of, where she sings in our Incidental scale is "I am Your Angel" on the Double Fantasy album.

Yoyo lol No talent in art or music...

Annie M, I know what you mean!! When I heard her sing, I COULDN'T BELIEVE anyone would buy her music!! She sounds like someone's killing her!!

Yes Me 2

Cynthia had two brothers: Tony and Charles

@@notyouagain1609 Gloria is talking about julian

Stable? He had all the middle class stability anyone could have from birth with his beloved uncle and aunt. Though they likely would have rather he became an accountant. But most parents would.

🙌

At one point John & Yoko were on heroin.

i imagine they needed heroin to put up with each other. And because it was so cool and so expensive it made them feel even more special. I wouldn't want to spend 5 minutes with either of them.. On the other hand Cynthia seems like an angel. Almost too good for this dirty old world. @@cagurl9113

how would he be like john when john wasnt there 80 percent of the time

@@armand2615 Genetics.

You don't tell your kid he/she was an accident. It screwed up John to know the truth and he in turn screwed up Julian. As far as it being her fault. The guy controls his privates not the woman. Nothing I have said is a lie. John was a douche.

OH YEAH... You dont understand life. My sister was told by my mother she wasnt wanted, AND she had 6 of us. THEN she had 3 more daughters... You talk about pain! I lost my youngest sister to suicide at 18..

Out of context? You have agreed with Thomas about John's statement about Julian's conception.

Did you notice from the post that "I don't know anybody who was a planned child." and then, "Sean is a planned child..."

Thomas Hayes

I wish i had a woman like Cynthia, she was such a wonderful and caring person(just by listening to this interview).

they are both nice looking, but yoko was exotic looking and the was coupled with her being more interesting and more intellectual

none business May Pang, instead of Yoko Ono

@@froggylegspeople john lennon disagreed with you
