GIVE PEACE A CHANCE First released on July 4, 1969. Yoko: All those Vietnam protests really changed the world. There was always that element who were really resisting it. That was the saving grace – that people were aware that they were that young generation who were really against it. And so it worked very well for the world. And the Bed-In was just part of it, a definite part of it. It was a statement on a very theatrical level and I think it was very effective. We were artists and did it our own way. We felt very good about it then, and it was such an incredibly strange thing that we were doing. At the time it was a courageous thing to do. John was making the statement in a way that he was looking at the far, far future. I saw it in his eyes. He was saying, ‘OK this is what we’re going to do together.’ And we’re going to give peace a chance. To the world.

CAMBRIDGE 1969 (FOR JOHN) Yoko Ono: I was asked to visit Cambridge University to perform my vocal work. As the date approached, they called me asking if I was still coming, since they knew that I had recently got married and didn't know if my plans had changed or not. "Tell him you're coming with a band," John whispered loudly from the side. John and I thought it was a riot, but we didn't know how they would take it at the other end of the phone. Was it alright to bring a rocker? But the guy held his ground well. It was Cambridge, so the greeting committee was cordial but cool. John took that in, of course. He joined me on the stage and played underneath my vocal. Maybe 'I Wanna Hold Your Hand'? That would have been cute. But instead he went in for the kill and played an incredibly creative avant-garde guitar that nobody in the world had ever heard before or since. The audience didn't react to it. I was probably the only musician who was totally impressed by it. But did I express my appreciation? John loved 'Cambridge 1969'. So for awhile, he always asked for it to be played when we were in the car. I just thought "Oh, not that one again!" "How about 'Yesterday'?" (a joke). And when I tried to play something else he wouldn't hear of it.
