    Yoko's gay hit
    July 12, 2004


    YOKO Ono has joined the chorus in support of gay marriages by recording Every Man Has a Man Who Loves Him, a gay-friendly version of a song she wrote almost a quarter-century ago.
    Every Man Has a Woman Who Loves Him, included on her last album with John Lennon before he was killed in 1980, was also retooled into another version: Every Woman Has a Woman Who Loves Her.

    The song is a political statement and a tribute to an audience that has improbably made Japanese-born Ms Ono a hit act in the dance clubs at 71.

    Ms Ono recently performed the latest version at a gay pride rally in New York, and the song is moving up Billboard magazine's dance club charts.

    She said one of her gay friends told her his mother had invoked the title of the first version in an attempt to steer him toward heterosexuality.
