The song you’re referring to is “Cry Baby Cry” from The Beatles’ “The White Album” (1968). However, Yoko Ono Lennon’s famous screaming can be found in her solo works, particularly in songs from her experimental albums with John Lennon, such as:
- “Cut Piece” (1964): One of her most iconic performances where she invites the audience to cut off pieces of her clothing while she screams or reacts.
- “Why” (from the album Yoko Ono/Plastic Ono Band – 1970): This track features intense vocalizations and screaming from Yoko, often as part of her avant-garde style, blending raw emotion with experimental music.
- “Don’t Worry, Kyoko (Mummy’s Only Looking for Her Hand in the Snow)” (also from Plastic Ono Band – 1970): This song features an intense scream from Yoko as part of her unique vocal expression.
Yoko Ono’s screaming, often seen as a hallmark of her avant-garde and experimental style, became a significant part of her musical identity, and it was a key feature in her collaborations with John Lennon in works like “The Wedding Album” (1969), as well as other solo efforts. These performances are often shocking and emotional, as Yoko’s voice is used not just melodically, but as a form of expressionistic art, pushing the boundaries of what was traditionally considered “music.”
