i’ve never really minded Yoko’s singing – it’s arty and emotional, not technical, and while i admit it took me awhile to get it, it’s impossible to deny its power. that scene in particular is literally recording the passing of the torch to the next generation of punk and riot grrls. i thought it was amazing. Yoko turns the light on, and Heather seems to intuitively understand that it’s a perfectly acceptable way to express herself.
the other thing that occurred to me during Heather’s segment is that she’s literally one of the few people in that room who were the first to sing along with Let It Be, and she’s probably old enough there to remember the moment. i can’t imagine having such childhood memories as being in the room when such iconic songs were created.
