I’m no Clodplay fan, but I don’t see how this is surprising since Paltrow can’t go five minutes without seeing her name somewhere in the media.
The guy is thinking with the wrong head, but hey, haven’t most of thought with the wrong head at one time?
Even if she breaks up Coldplay, it is not the end of the world for his fans. Remember, solo John Lennon stuff kicks ass.
Because Linda never had anything to do with the Beatles recording career, and only played on Paul’s albums and tours at HIS insisting.
Yoko, on the other hand, plopped herself down in the studio and expected to be treated as a member of the group, with equal say about the recording process as any other Beatle.(She andPatti Harrison are, in fact, the two female voices singing “Birthday” on the song of the same name.)
John was drfiting apart from Paul and the rest of the band anyway, but Yoko sped up the process, to be sure.

Nah, it had decent success here too. They still play it on easy listening stations; I hear it several times a week.
I dunno if Gwyneth is the next Yoko, but she’s apparently capable of singing–she’s got a ‘guest vocal’ credit on “It’s Only Love” on Sheryl Crow’s C’mon C’mon album. So she at least sounds better than Yoko.
If I remember correctly, the song you’re talking about hit #2 on the Adult Contemporary (why can’t boomers admit that they listen to “easy listening”?) chart in the US.
Not even close to anything resembling reality or the truth.
Lennon was the one who said that “She’s a part of me,” which meant that she was going to be in the studio.
That by no means meant that she had any say in the recording process at all.
She didn’t have any.
NONE.
The biggest arguement that she had with another Beatle came about when she took one of the biscuits (cookies) that George had brought in without asking him.
