Yoko Ono appears to have reignited her feud over songwriting credits with Sir Paul McCartney. McCartney is said to be furious his name has been removed from the credit for Give Peace A Chance on the new Lennon Legend DVD. The song, released in 1969 by the Plastic Ono Band, was written by John Lennon but has always been tagged Lennon-McCartney as he was still in the Beatles at the time. A year ago, McCartney enraged Ono by reversing the usual Beatles credit to 'composed by Paul McCartney and John Lennon' on a live album. He said he only did it on songs he wrote alone but she threatened legal action, saying it was 'absurd and petty'. McCartney later agreed not to change any more credits and the feud appeared to be over when he, Yoko, Ringo Starr and George Harrison's widow Olivia agreed on a new version of the Let It Be album. The Evening Standard quoted a source close to McCartney as saying: "He thought they had sorted everything out. He's really angry that she has chosen to do something this petty." |
