Yoko Ono: I'm An Important Musician

April 19, 2011
Yoko Ono: I'm An Important MusicianYoko Ono has revealed that she think she has made an 'important' contribution to music.

The singer said that she won't let public opinion change her view of her own talent.

"I always thought that I was an important musician, If you don't have that confidence, why would you go on and do it?"Ono told Spinner.

She added: "People accuse artists of being narcissists - of course we are! If we don't like ourselves, who's going to like us? No-one in the world liked me, everybody hated me, but still I went on. How about that?" 

Meanwhile, a letter written by John Lennon to Paul and Linda McCartney about The Beatles split is up for auction.
