This song severely depresses me, it's really tacky and clichéd and I get what they're trying to say but it's all too naff.
I also disagree with John.
I'll never wish I was English 😉

Two thoughts.
1) Never heard this song before. The lyrics do suck.
2) John and Yoko are too cute.

I actually really like this song. It's one of my favorites on STINYC.

Someone on YouTube put the song on there, withoutsinging on it. It sounds much better!
If I find the link again, will post it.
I've seen that before as well. I originally thought it was a track from the JL Anthology, but just now looking it up, it isn't. The track on there is a live one most definitely with Yoko.
Doing a quick Youtube search of the song "Without Yoko" gave me 3 different fan-made versions with varying ways places of track splicing. Here they are from worst to best.
