Love songs about John

I think she was just trying to create a touch of intrigue about a song that is forty some odd years old.

Didn't she say this right before her album release with LB? It could have been a ploy to create a tension or narrative that sparked interest. Either way, I ain't buying it. The song is wonderful as a plainspoken love song. The subtext she tried to create for it decades later is lame. But not in the league of saying Landslide was written for Katrina. Or Hillary's election.
