Compelling and captivating interview. May Pang is pure class. Had no idea of so much of this extraordinary story. Always thought it was the stuff of tabloids and wasn't necessarily true. Wow and wow.
I met her once at a Beatles convention. She was standing in the audience and no one recognized her except me. I went over and spoke to her and she was wonderful and gave me a kiss. ❤
@@hispoiema Juber was a frequent guest at Chicago Beatlefests but I’ve never seen May Pang there unless I missed her. Used to attend every year staying the entire weekend in my younger days but the expense became too much for me for the entire 3 day weekend so I’d either miss Beatlefests altogether or just stop in for one of the days.
In another Universe, John is still with May Pang, didn't meet Yoko, didnt get murdered, and has written a whole bunch of songs, which we will now never know.😢
She is an absolute sweetheart. Many, many years ago I went onto some online forum bemoaning the fact that I'd heard an ugly rumour where, on a recent CD re-release, Yoko had erased May's whisper in "#9 Dream" and overdubbed it with her own voice. Imagine my surprise the following morning when I opened my inbox and found a personal email from Ms Pang herself straitening me out on that point. I wrote her a note of thanks and she even wrote back a second time. A lovely, gracious lady.
I love her for trying to get Julian more involved with dad or vice versa. I also think she was more positive and compassionate. Plus love her pictures.
Awesome interview. Respectful, May is so classy..what a spirit she has. Am in love with interviewer Craig. He hits the bullseye every time. How this channel doesn't have more subscribers, I'll never know. Have been up half the night watching these mesmerising conversations.
Great interview Craig. I found it thru a search after seeing May interviewed by her friend. As a Beatle's fan, I'm happy to discover May & her beautiful story. Tastefully done. We can see that John suffered what we now know to be narcissistic abuse. And May gave him breathing space to connect with himself again. Kudos to you May. Many Blessings.🌻
17:11 - One of the best photos I'd seen of him. His face, his real face, for the world to see - no heavy glasses, no disguises, no mugging, no attempts to hide his eyes. The photo of him in the pool shows exactly who was underneath the "LENNON" mystique.
May seems like quite a compassionate, genuine person! It appears that she created some critically positive family moments for John as well as tempering his personality!
Everyone keeps saying- Had John stayed with May, he would have been better off. Well, when YOKO is playing with Black Magic and connecting with demonic forces - She used those forces to control John and Make him do as she wanted, even if it went against his wishes. He had no control over the evil demonic forces that she summoned up and used on him. This is no joke. I am being so sincere.
Now this is a really great interview. ❤Saw it twice, so compelling. May seems real nice. Didn’t know a heck of a lot about John’s complicated personal life. Wow.
It was such an incredible documentary that is sure to bring every Lennon fan to tears… shows May and John living outside his Beatle bubble for probably the first time in years in a way that Yoko STILL has NEVER showed or shared and it can’t help but warm your heart.
@@patriciagonzales2148Mourning the existence of someone who didn't exist in an alternate universe seems like a strange way to view the world. I have nothing against Sean Lennon, but if John stayed with Pang then he might have had other children with her and then you would then be asking about them. The same argument could actually be made about the use of birth control and all of the people who were never born, A better argument would be that John was an adult and for better or worse he chose to go back to Yoko.
What an amazing interview. I never knew much about May or her time with John Lennon and I have to say that I'm now going to rent her documentary, as I'm utterly enthralled by everything that was discussed here in this interview. ☮
What a genuine person May Pang is. Haven't seen the doc yet. Never liked Yoko. Always felt she was very controlling and self-serving. Still is. In today's world, a narcissist. Divide and conquer. That said, I truly believe that if John had lived, he would have reunited with May. They shared something very real. I'm happy that she finally has been able to be seen and heard. She's sincere, lovely, and honest.
These controlling women try to isolate their partner from friends & family once they've got you on the hook. They are the lovely person A in the beginning but morf into the calculating controlling person B later and you wonder where the person you married are.
@@tvsmed , Controlling people exist in both sexes, and they all separate the person they’re controlling from others who could be able to help. Yoko is a narcissistic monster. Her songs are horrible. I think she used John to further her music career (which is a pile of garbage, not music). Pimping him out to another woman and coercing them both into a relationship is another example of her controlling behavior.
Watch it… arguably the best documentary on what John was really like. Contains a TREASURE TROVE of photos and stories we never knew existed and shows John in a totally different light ..good and bad! It’s an amazing amazing film!
I always felt that May Pang was used by Yoko Ono. She was young and vulnerable at the time. But she was also big hearted and really wanted the best for John, Julian and Sean. Yoko knew that and took advantage of her naivete She treated her like a pawn in her little narcissistic game.
I’ve always admired Mae She always had a practical and honest way about her. She is someone you would want as a friend She carries a lot of joy in her energy
Wow I'm going to re-watch this a few times it is excellent imho thank you both very much. Btw she is so beautiful how could John resist plus her great personality.😊
After they started their relationship John always called May by her Chinese name, Fung Yee. I'm reading May's book 'Loving John' and find it to be a fascinating view into John & Yoko's lives.and personalities. What she wrote coincides with what I've read about them in other biographies. I got the impression that Yoko used May to keep an eye on John while letting him sow his wild oats and she got her's. Yoko was born into a wealthy Japanese banking family and I think she didn't want to risk losing control of John's fortune. May wrote that in the Japanese culture it's customary for a wealthy man to have a mistress. I always thought it was so romantic how May whispered 'John' in Number 9 Dream.
What a wonderful interview. And props to this gentleman for being an intelligent, SINCERE, person who appeared to have a genuine interest and concern for his subject. The best 32 minutes I've spent on the internet in a while. THANK YOU!!!!
Nice to see May Pang doing well. She was such a young woman during her relationship with John. What a fascinating journey she has had. Love her NYC accent too.
May was the right choice not Yoko. Down to earth and intelligent. May understand how important the relationship with Julian was. A kind compassionate person who understands whats important.
I've read an account where Yoko lived as a small child in California for a few years previously? Who knows if that's true? Yoko went to grade school in Japan w/ the empire of Japan's son who later became empire himself. I believe it's her mom's side of family that has some connection to royalty in Japan? Her mom was old money and her dad was new money. He was an international banker. I've read her dad moved the family to the US before WWII and also that they moved to the US in 1953? No idea which is true. Daughters of the rich and powerful in society use to be called debutantes. Coming from rich parents Yoko, when young, seems to have been kind of a Japanese debutante. Opposite of working class Cynthia.
@@dmc4426 Cynthia Lennon was raised in a middle class neighborhood so that’s not considered working class. The Family lived in a house in Hoylake on the Wirral Peninsula which was considered posh by those in Liverpool. In Art College, Lennon facetiously called her Miss Hoylake & Miss Prim but as their relationship progressed to a serious level, he just called her Cyn. Two weeks before Ono was born, the Father reportedly had to relocate to San Francisco because the bank the Father was affiliated with had him transfer there. The Family soon followed but not until Ono was 2 years old so that’s the first time she had met her Father. Then, the Father was transferred back to Japan in 1937 so Ono lived in California for 2 years as a toddler. Then the Family moved to New York in 1945 but Ono remained in Japan to attend a school called Gakushuin, a University in Tokyo established to educate the children of Japanese Nobility. Don’t think she lived in California as an adult. Time consuming to find all the info in one place as it’s bits & pieces here & bits & pieces there. And it’s not empire, but Emperor. Ono was a classmate of Prince Akihito who did become the Emperor of Japan but I believe they were classmates from University, not grade school. But the age groups are not classified the same as in America. Gakushuin is referred to as a University but she graduated from there at age 18-19. Ono did join her Family in New York after she graduated from Gakushuin so that was about 1952. She was to continue her education in Japan as the first Woman to be accepted in to the Philosophy program but it must not have been her cup of tea as she left after the second semester so again, she joined her Family in NY in 1952
@@dmc4426 Yoko is CIA Asset and Lennon's handler. She and Linda Eastman (Faul McFake's) handler, were both from upstate NY. Syracuse I believe. Coincidence they both met and married a Beatle?! I think not. Beatles were a manufactured band created by Tavis tock institute. Also May Pang, as much as I love her, was a part of this fake Beatle world. She claims she just walked into ABCO, or whatever the name of the firm is and landed a "job", is unheard of. People in the entertainment world, employees are closely vetted, have signed NDA's and outsiders are not allowed. The world isnt what we think it is.
@@dmc4426 also, the relationship between John and Yoko is also manufactured. It was controlled opposition to discredit the hippie movement. (btw, I HATE hippies, even as a little kid). You've never see them (J and Y) even exchange a kiss between them, because she was there to do a job and oversee Lennon's handling. Idk WHO Sean's father is, but it wasnt Lennon, thats for sure. Sean looks NOTHING like Lennon. Fake group, and fake relationships. Also, there were doubles, impersonators of all Beatles throughout their careers. These are just my opinions, if you want more info, look into nothing is rea,l Paul is dead forums. ☺
@@OCTOBERBABY7901Whst a pile of misinformation, supposition, prejudice “self-manufactured” poop. I’ll tell you what was “manufactured” my child: the hippies and women’s lib & bra burning. Discrediting the hippie movement didn’t need any help; it self-imploded (with the final Charles Manson tragedy.) You weren’t there kid, I can tell you that. As far as John & Yoko SHE manufactured it through the need to be seen and greed.
I got to see her movie 2x last year and was knocked out by it all. It was so well done and finally May gets to tell the TRUTH of what was going for real. May was great for John, she got him to see his friends again, make fantastic music but best of all May reunited Julian and Cynthia (YES!). I wish he would have stayed with May.
@@shirleyminassian1547 well, John also decided to let Yoko control his life, he was in permanent childlike state with Yoko and it seems that she took advantage of it.
@nenisguevaragomez8122 I totally agree with you, I thought it might have had something to do with his upbringing but it was mentioned that it was related to immigration, yoko was his ticket to stay in America apparently otherwise he was having more fun with May, if Yoko was also handling his business dealings n finances which saved him doing then that's two reasons...either way Yokos treatment of Julian was very cruel and greedy, he was his first child, he didn't deserve any of that.
She is super down to earth, from my first impression of her she seems like she would be a great partner for John or anyone to be with. I hope she is happy with a good family
She was so much better for him than Yoko. It's too bad there wasn't the understanding of narcissistic abuse back then. He wouldn't have gone back. He would have stayed where the love was.
Yes, don't we all get the impression that she sapped the life and spirit out of him? My gosh, just look at the photos of him with May Pang. Normal weight, looking optimistic, even ebullient. The only things wrong with The Lost Weekend were his drinking, which was always terrible for him because he couldn't handle it, and what seems to have been his constant nervousness about Yoko Ono. Imagine, indeed, what might have been if he'd divorced Ono and gotten John Eastman or, if he couldn't do a little crawling, someone else credible to manage his finances. Ono is a narcissist and a practicing witch. I feel sorry for Lennon, that he was trapped in a role he didn't like but didn't have any sense of how to get out of.
@@lynnhubbard844 Not all drugs are the same. Prior to Ono, Lennnon drank and smoked weed. She got him addicted to heroin. She also leveraged his addiction to cigarettes. She also sent him on a trip to the middle of the ocean during hurricane season. He was discombobulated. Ono was his worst addiction, and she deliberately did that, ruining his family to get her prize.
John Lennon most likely would not have been murdered had he stayed with May Pang. When he was with Yoko, Yoko denied any security to protect John from danger. This is confirmed by someone who used to work with John.
Really enjoyed this interview, I could listen to May talk for hours. I can't wait to watch the documentary. May did so much good for John and the people in his life. The opposite of the one he went back to.
Thank you May Pang for enlightening us all about John Lennon!! How I wish he stayed with you because he could be himself with you. I also am a Libra 10/11 and could relate to many of his feelings. Keep doing your wonderful work in Johns memory 💙
John was not good for Yoko. Her art career floundered, and it wasn’t because she did “weird” things. That was the art scene at the time. It was conceptual and performance art. If people only read a fucking book about art history after WWII. She married a pop singer, it was seen as a kind of surrender to the mainstream and commercial among the avant-garde
@@DJarry394 Stop swearing numpty. Nobody takes you seriously & Art is subjective but unfortunately her Art was always always 96% miss & much less hit🙏🏻🇬🇧
May is a wonderful person and I look forward to watching this documentary. We're about the same age and, like so many, I loved John Lennon. My favorite song is him singing Norwegian Wood. Thanks again for yet another wonderful interview!
I saw her on the Joan Rivers Show. She spoke openly and honestly about her time with John. Most don't know Yoko encouraged John to have a relationship up with her. May did and gave John some sanity back into his life. I hope she is doing well.
Firstly many thanks for your presentation. Much appreciated. Love May and everything she did for John. He changed his life. This infuriated Yoko who then became very underhanded and lied to get John back. Poor May was stabbed in the back by Yoko, in everything, job wise, everything !!! A great interview. A lovely lady, May .
It's still impossible to believe. Yoko said at the end of "John Lennon in New York" DVD "why would you kill an artist?" He was a musician who sometimes shot his mouth off, but most of what he said made sense and was relatable.
The John Lennon Imagine Peace Tower is a memorial to John Lennon from his widow, Yoko Ono, located on Viðey Island in Kollafjörður Bay near Reykjavík, Iceland. Installed in 2007, it consists of a tall tower of light, projected from a white stone monument that has the words "Imagine Peace" carved into it in 24 languages. These words, and the name of the tower, are a reference to Lennon's campaign for peace, and his 1971 song "Imagine". It is lit on Johns birthday every October and that is when May and Yoko met at the hotel. The power for the lights is provided by Iceland's unique geothermal energy grid. It uses approximately 75 kW of power. Buried underneath the light tower are over 1 million written wishes that Ono gathered over the years for another project called Wish Trees. Iceland was selected for the project because of its beauty and its eco-friendly use of geothermal energy. Love and peace from Immy in Reykjavik, Iceland.
This is wonderful, As a long time Beatles fan, so much has been answered through Miss Pang's insights. What can I say - yet another excellent conversation.
I found this that might explain Craig Bennett's familiarity. I love this site and his interviews, so I had a bit of a look: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_Bennett
Yes, I've found Craig has done some great interviews with major stars when doing that OZ morning show (I'm on the US east coast, so don't know the show but was ingrained by his excellent reporting/presenting/interviewing prowess). You can startle up some terrific ones on TH-cam.
@@soulthriver-oz6470 I adore this song It is so poetic and seems to sum up the artistic sensibility of John Lennon, and any artist really I came to him in a dream, which is wonderful
This was a really compassionate, to-the-point interview, Craig. Really loved the down-to-earthness of you and May. Just loved it 🥰 note: Aussie, Melbourne
SHE REALLY IS A SPECIAL LADY. I DID NOT KNOW MUCH ABOUT HER OTHER THAN SHE WORKED WITH OR FOR JOHN AND YOKO AND YOKO WANTED HER TO "SAVE" THEIR MARRIAGE. A BABY SITTER OF SORTS. THAT WAS ALL I KNEW. MS. MAY IS AN INCREDIBLE LADY. SHE'S SMART, BEAUTIFUL AND WAS PUTTING OUT FIRES LEFT AND RIGHT. PLUS, SHE WAS MENDING FENCES ALL OVER THE PLACE WHILE STILL HOLDING DOWN HER REGULAR JOB. WHAT AN INCREDIBLE WOMAN. ❤❤❤
@@belladonna131 GOD BLESS THIS EXTRAORDINARY WOMAN...she was a wonderful influence on John .. thankful she got things smoothed out with Cynthia Julian and John
I've always found the whole John&Yoko's image too romanticized and flaky. Hence, I am glad that May got to share her truth about the so called "Lost Weekend" which had basically been dismissed and unfairly regarded as meaningless
I think she is so lovely. I think if John had stayed with her, the Beatles would have gotten back together, and Julian and John would have had a much better relationship.
What an incredible interview. The best I have ever seen May Pang participate in. She is so classy and elegant and her story compelling. Can't wait to see the documentary. Love this so much I watched it through twice. Excellent work Craig Bennett :)
May said the only reason John went back to Loco, was because that would give him a much better chance of becoming a USA citizen, being able to go back and forth between the US and England. But just for extra insurance, to keep John living with her, AND keep John interested in her, Yoko came up with a VERY reinforced plan, of getting pregnant with John’s baby!! THAT cinched it for her!! She definitely had him back then!! AND she got pregnant almost immediately after he left May and rejoined Loco!! And it was the same year (1975), in the fall, that he got his immigration papers. It was around the time of his son, Sean’s birth. I have always wondered if John and Loco wouldn’t have had a child, if he would have left her, after getting the immigration papers, and gone back to May!! Because I know if John would have left Loco, to go back to May, and wanted custody of Sean, or even visiting privileges, Loco would have fixed it so John would get neither of privileges!! Even if she had to out and out lie, or pay off other people to persuade the court that John wasn’t a fit father!! Loco Yoko is a real piece of work!! I guess she is into witchcraft, also!! So THAT makes her an honest to goodness REAL WITCH!!
Yoko was so bad for John. He lost his mother, saw Yoko a mother figure. She used John and was a very jealous woman! From a very truthful source, who since has passed, said John wanted to leave Yoko prior to his death. This woman, May, seems lovely, honest and only wanted the best for John. Unlike Yoko, who isolated him from his 3 brothers!
Yoko - (screaming like crazy) I'm gonna show you I got talent !! Audience - what a crazy b ... May - Hello, I'm May, what can I do for you ? Audience - Love this woman !!
I’m one of the few who saw the documentary. Because it has had a limited release. In my view, it is about celebrity and especially before social media stars could for the main do what they wanted. May Pang according to the documentary was selected by John and Yoko to be his lover. John and Yoko with no doubt picked May for this role said the documentary. May worked for John and Yoko and was very young about 21. This action was horrible because it took advantage of a lopsided power dynamic. It forever changed May’s life in a way May did not fully understand at that time. This intrusion into her realty by John and Yoko caused May to now have this forever benchmark of the three years of John Lennon into her life. It’s a good documentary that shows John and Yoko as flawed people and May as someone taken advantage of by John and Yoko.
May Pang has good vibes,she’s always smiling and friendly. John was better off with her,he was more productive and was reaching out to old friends more.Yoko was the opposite,dark vibes,she kept him from his family and friends and she turned him into a recluse.
I absolutely LOVE May Pang!! What a great video! I truly enjoyed every second of it. I think this is my third time watching it because May is so charismatic, and interesting. Not to mention, such a lovely lady. I wish John would’ve stayed with May! Honestly, I do! Something tells me, he might still be with us if he had! I always had thoughts that yoko COULD have had something to do with John’s murder. I say that because, I read, John wasn’t barely cold yet before she moved another guy into the Dakota apartment!! I’m not alone when I say, I just never liked her! Thank you so very much for sharing this wonderful video with us all!! I love and miss John so much. I was 23 years old when he died! We were having a birthday party for my little brother’s 16th, dec 8, 1980! Having a great time when we heard Howard Cosell interrupt the football game to announce that awful news! We stopped the party, and just sat there in my parents living room..not understanding what the hell was happening!! Love this video.. and I love May! Thanks, again!
So glad you enjoyed our conversation with May. She is such a sweet lady and it's lovely to hear that they had such a lovely relationship - and one that continued right up to his death.
Yes I was 22 and watching the game when Howard C. Came on and said he died. I ran down stairs crying like a baby. My room mates freaking out what what what's happening. I crying out my guy is dead my soul feels shredded in two. I played Julia and prudence on guitar all night crying out loud. R.I.P Johnny and the moon dogs the sliver Beatles, the Beatles the elephant memory band plastic Ono band......bye Walrus Winston Ono Lennon rock on were ever Krishna took you bro
Such a sweet, beautiful lady. I always enjoy May's interviews and her recollections of her time with John. It's a shame that they didn't stay together because she was really good for him - he got to be himself when he was with her - he started making music again and reconnected with his friends and the other Beatles (his brothers, as May says). I definitely want to see this film. As for Yoko, there's nothing I can say that hasn't been said already. I hope she's happy with the life she made for herself.
Oh I’m sure she is, she got all his money, which is mostly what she was after. And his celebrity status rubbing off on her. She was a bad influence, this woman would have been a good one.
To me, John and Yoko perfectly represent the Borderline/Narcissist relationship dynamic. I really wish he could have stayed with May. She seemed like a very stable, loving, and reliable person which is exactly what John needed. I wish there was more of a dialogue around these issues back then, and I wonder if John recognized the toxic pattern that was playing out if he would have attempted to leave Yoko.
She might well be a Narc & he was desperate to please/terrified of her - but he's never been Borderline that's just ridiculous. JL was vulnerable bc of his actual Mother & what happened to him, but nothing more🙏🏻🇬🇧
@@Flowerwork7Seraphine if you think it’s so ridiculous, you either don’t have a good understanding of BPD or you don’t have a good understanding of John’s behaviors that have been commented on for years by the people closest to him. I’d give this a read. joss.tcnj.edu/wp-content/uploads/sites/176/2016/04/2016-Fade.pdf

What an enlightening interview with an amazing woman. I have got to see this documentary! Thank you, May (my fellow NYer!) and Craig.
This was fantastic
Seriously a brilliant interview. Great interviewer, and May Pang is classy and so dignified in her telling of her story 😊
I’ve always admired Mae
She always had a practical and honest way about her.
She is someone you would want as a friend
She carries a lot of joy in her energy
A most revealing and gracious interview. May Pang is such a force of nature, great energy. No wonder John Lennon fell very much in love.
brilliant interview !
Beautiful soul
Beautiful energy and THIS was the right match for John
She's a special Treasure
Wow. That's a helluva brazen assumption.@@r.m.simone396
John Lennon was in love with sex. Not women
No wonder why John loves May .. She is full of vibrant energy ❤. They could have been such a wonderful couple with great dynamics.
I love her! What a great, kind and wonderful human being. She was so good for John. Thank you, May!
Couldn't agree more!
@@kelshepI never cared for Pang Mays purple hair, I'm guessing that's to cover up some grey! Lol
May is so interesting and hilarious; I'm glad John and her got together; looking forward to watching the movie!
Comes across as an authentic person.
Great interview
GOOD ONE. much thx. :)
Wow I'm going to re-watch this a few times it is excellent imho thank you both very much. Btw she is so beautiful how could John resist plus her great personality.😊
Glad you enjoyed it
love this interviewer, always so kind and respectful. and May Pang is a beautiful soul.
After they started their relationship John always called May by her Chinese name, Fung Yee. I'm reading May's book 'Loving John' and find it to be a fascinating view into John & Yoko's lives.and personalities. What she wrote coincides with what I've read about them in other biographies. I got the impression that Yoko used May to keep an eye on John while letting him sow his wild oats and she got her's. Yoko was born into a wealthy Japanese banking family and I think she didn't want to risk losing control of John's fortune. May wrote that in the Japanese culture it's customary for a wealthy man to have a mistress. I always thought it was so romantic how May whispered 'John' in Number 9 Dream.
What a wonderful interview. And props to this gentleman for being an intelligent, SINCERE, person who appeared to have a genuine interest and concern for his subject. The best 32 minutes I've spent on the internet in a while.
THANK YOU!!!!
She was able to get John connected with his ex-family because for that brief period Yoko was out of the picture.
That was her mistake
Nice to see May Pang doing well. She was such a young woman during her relationship with John. What a fascinating journey she has had. Love her NYC accent too.
May was the right choice not Yoko. Down to earth and intelligent. May understand how important the relationship with Julian was. A kind compassionate person who understands whats important.
Yeah, you would know better than John
It always seems like the fussy people get what they want. Nice people finish last sometimes
Quem manda no coração!! Não adianta falar que John podia ter ficado com ela !! Coração fala mais alto!!!
@@cintiamie6476 no Mind CONTROL ruled Lennon's weak brain! J and Y, fake relationship! Get over it, its fake af.
I wish John had stayed with May Pang. She is a kind soul. She got John to see Julian and patch things up with Cynthia.
I've read an account where Yoko lived as a small child in California for a few years previously? Who knows if that's true? Yoko went to grade school in Japan w/ the empire of Japan's son who later became empire himself. I believe it's her mom's side of family that has some connection to royalty in Japan? Her mom was old money and her dad was new money. He was an international banker. I've read her dad moved the family to the US before WWII and also that they moved to the US in 1953? No idea which is true. Daughters of the rich and powerful in society use to be called debutantes. Coming from rich parents Yoko, when young, seems to have been kind of a Japanese debutante. Opposite of working class Cynthia.
@@dmc4426
Cynthia Lennon was raised in a middle class neighborhood so that’s not considered working class. The Family lived in a house in Hoylake on the Wirral Peninsula which was considered posh by those in Liverpool. In Art College, Lennon facetiously called her Miss Hoylake & Miss Prim but as their relationship progressed to a serious level, he just called her Cyn.
Two weeks before Ono was born, the Father reportedly had to relocate to San Francisco because the bank the Father was affiliated with had him transfer there. The Family soon followed but not until Ono was 2 years old so that’s the first time she had met her Father. Then, the Father was transferred back to Japan in 1937 so Ono lived in California for 2 years as a toddler. Then the Family moved to New York in 1945 but Ono remained in Japan to attend a school called Gakushuin, a University in Tokyo established to educate the children of Japanese Nobility. Don’t think she lived in California as an adult. Time consuming to find all the info in one place as it’s bits & pieces here & bits & pieces there. And it’s not empire, but Emperor. Ono was a classmate of Prince Akihito who did become the Emperor of Japan but I believe they were classmates from University, not grade school. But the age groups are not classified the same as in America. Gakushuin is referred to as a University but she graduated from there at age 18-19. Ono did join her Family in New York after she graduated from Gakushuin so that was about 1952. She was to continue her education in Japan as the first Woman to be accepted in to the Philosophy program but it must not have been her cup of tea as she left after the second semester so again, she joined her Family in NY in 1952
@@dmc4426 Yoko is CIA Asset and Lennon's handler. She and Linda Eastman (Faul McFake's) handler, were both from upstate NY. Syracuse I believe. Coincidence they both met and married a Beatle?! I think not. Beatles were a manufactured band created by Tavis tock institute. Also May Pang, as much as I love her, was a part of this fake Beatle world. She claims she just walked into ABCO, or whatever the name of the firm is and landed a "job", is unheard of. People in the entertainment world, employees are closely vetted, have signed NDA's and outsiders are not allowed. The world isnt what we think it is.
@@dmc4426 also, the relationship between John and Yoko is also manufactured. It was controlled opposition to discredit the hippie movement. (btw, I HATE hippies, even as a little kid). You've never see them (J and Y) even exchange a kiss between them, because she was there to do a job and oversee Lennon's handling. Idk WHO Sean's father is, but it wasnt Lennon, thats for sure. Sean looks NOTHING like Lennon. Fake group, and fake relationships. Also, there were doubles, impersonators of all Beatles throughout their careers. These are just my opinions, if you want more info, look into nothing is rea,l Paul is dead forums. ☺
@@OCTOBERBABY7901Whst a pile of misinformation, supposition, prejudice “self-manufactured” poop. I’ll tell you what was “manufactured” my child: the hippies and women’s lib & bra burning. Discrediting the hippie movement didn’t need any help; it self-imploded (with the final Charles Manson tragedy.) You weren’t there kid, I can tell you that. As far as John & Yoko SHE manufactured it through the need to be seen and greed.
I got to see her movie 2x last year and was knocked out by it all. It was so well done and finally May gets to tell the TRUTH of what was going for real. May was great for John, she got him to see his friends again, make fantastic music but best of all May reunited Julian and Cynthia (YES!). I wish he would have stayed with May.
Totally agree with you flashflame. It's a terrific documentary and it was great to hear May's side of the story.
What a lovely thing to do, yes I wish he'd stay with May too, Yoko doesn't give me good vibes, I read she was very controlling.
@@shirleyminassian1547 well, John also decided to let Yoko control his life, he was in permanent childlike state with Yoko and it seems that she took advantage of it.
@nenisguevaragomez8122 I totally agree with you, I thought it might have had something to do with his upbringing but it was mentioned that it was related to immigration, yoko was his ticket to stay in America apparently otherwise he was having more fun with May, if Yoko was also handling his business dealings n finances which saved him doing then that's two reasons...either way Yokos treatment of Julian was very cruel and greedy, he was his first child, he didn't deserve any of that.
How did she reunite Julian and Cynthia? Why were they estranged from each other? I thought Julian lived with Cynthia?
She is super down to earth, from my first impression of her she seems like she would be a great partner for John or anyone to be with. I hope she is happy with a good family
She was so much better for him than Yoko. It's too bad there wasn't the understanding of narcissistic abuse back then. He wouldn't have gone back. He would have stayed where the love was.
Yes, don't we all get the impression that she sapped the life and spirit out of him? My gosh, just look at the photos of him with May Pang. Normal weight, looking optimistic, even ebullient. The only things wrong with The Lost Weekend were his drinking, which was always terrible for him because he couldn't handle it, and what seems to have been his constant nervousness about Yoko Ono. Imagine, indeed, what might have been if he'd divorced Ono and gotten John Eastman or, if he couldn't do a little crawling, someone else credible to manage his finances. Ono is a narcissist and a practicing witch. I feel sorry for Lennon, that he was trapped in a role he didn't like but didn't have any sense of how to get out of.
@@bobtaylor170 drugs
It shows how manipulative Yoko was as she likely used John as a platform for her " art"....
@@lynnhubbard844 Well it was the 60's and drugs was always part of the 60s
@@lynnhubbard844 Not all drugs are the same. Prior to Ono, Lennnon drank and smoked weed. She got him addicted to heroin. She also leveraged his addiction to cigarettes. She also sent him on a trip to the middle of the ocean during hurricane season. He was discombobulated. Ono was his worst addiction, and she deliberately did that, ruining his family to get her prize.
What a wonderful, calm person. 💝
We agree!
Happy he was able to have such a positive force and real love in his short life with May.
Incredible interview. Thanks Craig Bennett 🧡
Pang's book Loving John is an excellent read.
sending love and peace to everyone...
John Lennon most likely would not have been murdered had he stayed with May Pang. When he was with Yoko, Yoko denied any security to protect John from danger. This is confirmed by someone who used to work with John.
We all love May. She gave a great interview on our channel
Really enjoyed this interview, I could listen to May talk for hours. I can't wait to watch the documentary. May did so much good for John and the people in his life. The opposite of the one he went back to.
Thank you May Pang for enlightening us all about John Lennon!! How I wish he stayed with you because he could be himself with you.
I also am a Libra 10/11 and could relate to many of his feelings. Keep doing your wonderful work in Johns memory 💙
May was a better person for John than Yoko ever was. Yoko was a vampire and a leach.
N Julian.
John was not good for Yoko. Her art career floundered, and it wasn’t because she did “weird” things. That was the art scene at the time. It was conceptual and performance art. If people only read a fucking book about art history after WWII. She married a pop singer, it was seen as a kind of surrender to the mainstream and commercial among the avant-garde

I saw her on the Joan Rivers Show. She spoke openly and honestly about her time with John. Most don't know Yoko encouraged John to have a relationship up with her. May did and gave John some sanity back into his life. I hope she is doing well.
Thank you for this smart and warm interview with May Pang. You ask good questions. You listen to the person you're interviewing. I appreciate that.
Thank you for your comment Le Ann. Craig and I appreciate your feedback. Kelley
I get the impression that Yoko recreated her story and May and others were swept under the carpet. May is awesome.
Firstly many thanks for your presentation. Much appreciated. Love May and everything she did for John. He changed his life. This infuriated Yoko who then became very underhanded and lied to get John back. Poor May was stabbed in the back by Yoko, in everything, job wise, everything !!! A great interview. A lovely lady, May .
What did yoko say & lying to get John back ?
@@christynorman7288, She threatened his immigration status.
John Lennon's fans still have not gotten over his passing
Young men nowadays do not get over the smallest things and end their lives because of it🙄
And never will 😢
40 man … ridiculous how cut short that was
It's still impossible to believe. Yoko said at the end of "John Lennon in New York" DVD "why would you kill an artist?" He was a musician who sometimes shot his mouth off, but most of what he said made sense and was relatable.
Call IT What IT IS - MURDER
The John Lennon Imagine Peace Tower is a memorial to John Lennon from his widow, Yoko Ono, located on Viðey Island in Kollafjörður Bay near Reykjavík, Iceland. Installed in 2007, it consists of a tall tower of light, projected from a white stone monument that has the words "Imagine Peace" carved into it in 24 languages. These words, and the name of the tower, are a reference to Lennon's campaign for peace, and his 1971 song "Imagine". It is lit on Johns birthday every October and that is when May and Yoko met at the hotel. The power for the lights is provided by Iceland's unique geothermal energy grid. It uses approximately 75 kW of power.
Buried underneath the light tower are over 1 million written wishes that Ono gathered over the years for another project called Wish Trees. Iceland was selected for the project because of its beauty and its eco-friendly use of geothermal energy. Love and peace from Immy in Reykjavik, Iceland.
This is wonderful, As a long time Beatles fan, so much has been answered through Miss Pang's insights. What can I say - yet another excellent conversation.
Very moving and insightful interview - bless you May…
Great interview, enjoyed it thoroughly! Now I have to see the movie in the proper format!! Thanks again ❤
Glad you enjoyed it and the documentary is definitely worth watching. Kelley
great interview, mate! something is driving me nuts, though... what morning show here in Aus are/were you on? you're soooooo familiar!!!! ✌🏻👊🏻🤟🏻
I found this that might explain Craig Bennett's familiarity. I love this site and his interviews, so I had a bit of a look: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craig_Bennett
Sorry we're driving you nuts! Craig and I met while working on Studio 10 but we both left some time ago. So that's where you've probably seen him.
Yes, I've found Craig has done some great interviews with major stars when doing that OZ morning show (I'm on the US east coast, so don't know the show but was ingrained by his excellent reporting/presenting/interviewing prowess). You can startle up some terrific ones on TH-cam.

WHAT AN INCREDIBLE WOMAN. ❤❤❤
@@belladonna131 GOD BLESS THIS EXTRAORDINARY WOMAN...she was a wonderful influence on John .. thankful she got things smoothed out with Cynthia Julian and John

I've always found the whole John&Yoko's image too romanticized and flaky. Hence, I am glad that May got to share her truth about the so called "Lost Weekend" which had basically been dismissed and unfairly regarded as meaningless
Thanks, I believe May's every word, not so much Yoko's!
I think she is so lovely. I think if John had stayed with her, the Beatles would have gotten back together, and Julian and John would have had a much better relationship.
May Pang is just wonderful..she is a true light in this world ..the film was absolutely beautiful!! Bravo !!
What an incredible interview. The best I have ever seen May Pang participate in. She is so classy and elegant and her story compelling. Can't wait to see the documentary. Love this so much I watched it through twice. Excellent work Craig Bennett :)
Fantastic interview and what a great human being.......She is riveting and the content of the interview was perfect. Thank you !!!!!
Glad you enjoyed it Lina. Thank you for watching.
Wonderful interview. Thank you!
Glad you enjoyed it!
May said the only reason John went back to Loco, was because that would give him a much better chance of becoming a USA citizen, being able to go back and forth between the US and England. But just for extra insurance, to keep John living with her, AND keep John interested in her, Yoko came up with a VERY reinforced plan, of getting pregnant with John’s baby!! THAT cinched it for her!! She definitely had him back then!! AND she got pregnant almost immediately after he left May and rejoined Loco!! And it was the same year (1975), in the fall, that he got his immigration papers. It was around the time of his son, Sean’s birth. I have always wondered if John and Loco wouldn’t have had a child, if he would have left her, after getting the immigration papers, and gone back to May!! Because I know if John would have left Loco, to go back to May, and wanted custody of Sean, or even visiting privileges, Loco would have fixed it so John would get neither of privileges!! Even if she had to out and out lie, or pay off other people to persuade the court that John wasn’t a fit father!! Loco Yoko is a real piece of work!! I guess she is into witchcraft, also!! So THAT makes her an honest to goodness REAL WITCH!!
May was sooo good for John ,very lovely down to earth just what he needed !!!!!❤️🇬🇧💐💐💐💐
There were so many rumors about Paul being dead that he finally commented, "If I died, I would be the last one to know about it."
May Pang seems to be a really kind person
Yoko was so bad for John. He lost his mother, saw Yoko a mother figure. She used John and was a very jealous woman! From a very truthful source, who since has passed, said John wanted to leave Yoko prior to his death.
This woman, May, seems lovely, honest and only wanted the best for John. Unlike Yoko, who isolated him from his 3 brothers!

I talked to May in Kansas City recently. She is very warm and comfortable to visit with. It was a special day for me.
Yoko’s films about 365 legs and Fly reinforce what an incredible talent she is………………..NOT!!!!

I’m one of the few who saw the documentary. Because it has had a limited release. In my view, it is about celebrity and especially before social media stars could for the main do what they wanted. May Pang according to the documentary was selected by John and Yoko to be his lover. John and Yoko with no doubt picked May for this role said the documentary. May worked for John and Yoko and was very young about 21. This action was horrible because it took advantage of a lopsided power dynamic. It forever changed May’s life in a way May did not fully understand at that time. This intrusion into her realty by John and Yoko caused May to now have this forever benchmark of the three years of John Lennon into her life. It’s a good documentary that shows John and Yoko as flawed people and May as someone taken advantage of by John and Yoko.
May Pang has good vibes,she’s always smiling and friendly. John was better off with her,he was more productive and was reaching out to old friends more.Yoko was the opposite,dark vibes,she kept him from his family and friends and she turned him into a recluse.
He wanted to be a junkie and Yoko let him also she looked after his money
@@dondamon4669 Not true Lennon never took any drugs
He should have stayed with may. She seemed to be a positive influence on him
I absolutely LOVE May Pang!!
What a great video! I truly enjoyed every second of it. I think this is my third time watching it because May is so charismatic, and interesting. Not to mention, such a lovely lady. I wish John would’ve stayed with May! Honestly, I do! Something tells me, he might still be with us if he had! I always had thoughts that yoko COULD have had something to do with John’s murder. I say that because, I read, John wasn’t barely cold yet before she moved another guy into the Dakota apartment!!
I’m not alone when I say, I just never liked her!
Thank you so very much for sharing this wonderful video with us all!! I love and miss John so much. I was 23 years old when he died! We were having a birthday party for my little brother’s 16th, dec 8, 1980! Having a great time when we heard Howard Cosell interrupt the football game to announce that awful news!
We stopped the party, and just sat there in my parents living room..not understanding what the hell was happening!!
Love this video.. and I love May! Thanks, again!
So glad you enjoyed our conversation with May. She is such a sweet lady and it's lovely to hear that they had such a lovely relationship - and one that continued right up to his death.
Yes I was 22 and watching the game when Howard C. Came on and said he died. I ran down stairs crying like a baby. My room mates freaking out what what what's happening. I crying out my guy is dead my soul feels shredded in two. I played Julia and prudence on guitar all night crying out loud.

Excellent interview. Maybe the best I've seen with her.
High praise indeed Sue. Thank you for your kind words.
Such a sweet, beautiful lady. I always enjoy May's interviews and her recollections of her time with John. It's a shame that they didn't stay together because she was really good for him - he got to be himself when he was with her - he started making music again and reconnected with his friends and the other Beatles (his brothers, as May says). I definitely want to see this film.
As for Yoko, there's nothing I can say that hasn't been said already. I hope she's happy with the life she made for herself.
Oh I’m sure she is, she got all his money, which is mostly what she was after. And his celebrity status rubbing off on her. She was a bad influence, this woman would have been a good one.
To me, John and Yoko perfectly represent the Borderline/Narcissist relationship dynamic. I really wish he could have stayed with May. She seemed like a very stable, loving, and reliable person which is exactly what John needed. I wish there was more of a dialogue around these issues back then, and I wonder if John recognized the toxic pattern that was playing out if he would have attempted to leave Yoko.
She might well be a Narc & he was desperate to please/terrified of her - but he's never been Borderline that's just ridiculous. JL was vulnerable bc of his actual Mother & what happened to him, but nothing more🙏🏻🇬🇧
@@Flowerwork7Seraphine if you think it’s so ridiculous, you either don’t have a good understanding of BPD or you don’t have a good understanding of John’s behaviors that have been commented on for years by the people closest to him.
