Top 5 Things Yoko Ono and Courtney Love Have In Common.

This month's Top5 has been stirring about in the back of my head for some time. It really does amaze me how much Courtney Love and Yoko Ono have in common and with Courtney's recent media appearances and the news surrounding the Nirvana settlement and greatest hits release, I felt the time was opportune to take a look at these similarities.

I won't go into the usual anti-Courtney rant about the conspiracy theory of her having Kurt offed, to be honest I don't know enough of the details. What gets me about Courtney is not only her personality but her music is truly awful. Just because she calls it punk does not give her an excuse for not being able to sing or not being able to sing in key (X is as about as punk as you can get and Exene Cervenka CAN carry a note). On that front her and Yoko are on the same page, they think if they give it a label their lack of talent can be swept under the rug. Listen to Courtney's cover of "Gold Dust Women" and I rest my case. I honestly doubt that Courtney would have a platinum album to her credit if she had not been married to Kurt. The sad part is there is plenty of people with talent that will never got a chance at making a major label record but these two wives of rock stars have. And Yoko's singing? Ever wonder what the cry of a dying banshee would actually sound like? Listen to Yoko sing and you will know.

Top 5 Things Yoko Ono and Courtney Love Have In Common.

3) Both live off the fame (and fortune) of their dead husbands

2) Both helped screw up their husband's lives/careers

The number one thing Yoko Ono and Courtney Love have in common is:

Both are a living anti-drug commercial. The message, "do drugs and you could wake up married to this!"
