creamstripe it is great that you appreciate Yoko and her great works. Her lyrics are as powerful as Dylan or any poet in my lifetime. The music is great and her lyric is great, but Yoko's heart of love for people (abusive events that women have experienced} are clearly expressed in songs like "what a bastard the world is", "Yang Yang", and her best song "the Kite Song" reflect images of terror, fright in visionary scenes that make you appreciate Yoko's Artistry of Brilliance.

You are right! You have experienced her heart and soul. The title track Infinite Universe reveals Yoko's love for people who have been victimized by tragedy through abuse and drugs in a way that Legendary musicians like Dylan could not write as explicit as this song of Yoko's. Is she a folk singer? She is more. Is she an Artist? She is more. Is she a poet? She is much more. Yoko Ono can relate to hurting people's tragedies and writes them down in lyrics that make me appreciate Yoko very much!

This album ranks up with post-Beatles albums like Imagine, Band On the Run and All Things Must Pass.

Other masterpieces on Yoko's Infinite Universe Album are Death of Samanta, Catman, Smashing
My Face, I Have a Woman inside My Soul and my favourite The Kite Song and the start of her Album Yang Yang is just the beginning, Her song "what a bastard the world is" brings out Yoko's great ability to write scenes of a woman being abused and tormented by an overpowering husband. In the end of the song is a twist - Yoko admits there is a long way to go for equality. This piece of music is a classic.
