Tonetta - John and Yoko

No video unfortunately, but it's a great song all the same. Probably my favourite Tonetta song, noisy and carefree. From the album "777" (Black Tent Press, 2010)

This song is so incredible. The guitar riff is so raw and noisy. The bass is so funky. Not to mention Tonetta's singing and the lyrics themselves are reminiscent of a blues or rockabilly ballad, but with a fuzzy overtone. At least in my opinion.

@ppparaone Wow. Always wondered what the chorus was about, but since most of his music is about his divorce, it totally makes sense. Maybe he got the idea from Lennon's No. 9 Dream.

@ppparaone I meant not being 100% on the premise of the song. I am sure about the lyrics because I asked him directly what they were and he told me.

My favorite song of his. In case anyone wonders about the lyrics, the main course says "Wife my you miss I" which is "I miss you my wife" backwards. I'm not 100% on this but I am pretty sure it's the spirit of John Lennon speaking to Yoko Ono from the beyond and wishing see would join him soon. Awesome premise for a song imho.
