    The animis toward Ono is largely because she is blamed for leading Lennon down a path that caused the breakup of the Beatles. (Whether or not this is true is besides the point...it's the opinion they hold.)

    Under the category of "buy one - get one free", we also have the fact that Ono's music featured her howling, disonant style that most people found so atrocious that it has become a comedy staple for commentary on bad music.

    • I think the marriage was already on its last legs but yeah. Homewrecker was a bigger deal then.

    • Yoko's music was different, not bad.

    • Her stuff was ahead its time and sadly not executed by a born singer but she had a kind of experimental side to her. The discordant harmonies of the b-52's showed off some of the notions Ono was exploring in the female voice to better overall effect.
