   Wow, the sound of the riff in this song was and still is exhilarating out of this world since then by Deep Purple. This song is about a woman from Tokyo. What woman from Tokyo I don't know, she just seems good and kind. Maybe could have been how John felt about Yoko, or a future child in time that became a woman like Homare Sawa who is loved not only by men on the soccer field, but loved and looked upon as a woman soccer god for team Japan and the country as the woman from Tokyo.
