"1969 was the year the music died, or, at least, the year The Beatles ended. The iconic British boy group disbanded in the late &amp;apos;60s, and many blamed John Lennon&amp;apos;s wife Yoko Ono&amp;apos;s influence. Beatles frontman Paul McCartney has publicly had a tense relationship with Ono, 80, but in the November cover story for Rolling Stone, McCartney, 71, ended the feud once and for all.&amp;#xA0;\r\n\r\nCalling his former bandmate&amp;apos;s wife a certified &amp;quot;badass,&amp;quot; McCartney talked about his struggle with his feelings toward Ono.&amp;#xA0;\r\n&amp;quot;I thought, &amp;apos;If John loved her, there&amp;apos;s got to be something. He&amp;apos;s not stupid,&amp;apos;&amp;quot; McCartney told Rolling Stone. &amp;quot;It&amp;apos;s like, what are you going to do? Are you going to hold a grudge you never really had?&amp;quot;&amp;#xA0;\r\n\r\nAnd the &amp;quot;That Was Me&amp;quot; singer admits that another Beatle influenced his decision to forgive and forget when it came to Ono.&amp;#xA0;\r\n&amp;quot;George [Harrison] would say to me, &amp;apos;You don&amp;apos;t want stuff like that hanging around in your life,&amp;apos;&amp;quot; McCartney revealed of his late bandmate.&amp;#xA0;\r\nAnd though he&amp;apos;s been able to put his bitter feelings toward Ono behind him, McCartney admits there&amp;apos;s one person he&amp;apos;ll never forgive -- Lennon&amp;apos;s murderer, Mark David Chapman, who fatally shot the singer outside his New York apartment in 1980.&amp;#xA0;\r\n\r\n&amp;quot;I think I could pretty much forgive anyone else,&amp;quot; he continued. &amp;quot;But I don&amp;apos;t see why I&amp;apos;d want to forgive him. This is a guy who did something so crazy and terminal. Why should I bless him with forgiveness?&amp;quot;\r\nThe legendary singer has just released his 24th post-Beatles album, New."^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
