Yoko Ono Album Details Revealed Yoko Ono has assembled an impressive line-up of leading indie artists for her forthcoming covers album, 'Yes, I'm A Witch'. Pitchfork reports that Peaches, Le Tigre, Cat Power, Polyphonic Spree, Antony Hegarty, The Flaming Lips and The Sleepy Jackson will all feature on the album, a kind of remix/covers/duets hybrid. Ono gave the artists exclusive access to her entire back catalogue, asking them to choose a song, then – according to a press release – "provided [them] with the vocals and whatever other instrumental elements attracted them from that cut. Almost all the artists chose just the vocals." The artists then went on to create a new version of the track.
'Yes, I'm A Witch' Tracklist:
1 Hank Shocklee: "Witch Shocktronica Intro" 2 Peaches: "Kiss Kiss Kiss" 3 Shitake Monkey: "O'Oh" 4 Blow Up: "Everyman...Everywoman" 5 Le Tigre: "Sisters O Sisters" 6 Porcupine Tree: "Death of Samantha" 7 DJ Spooky: "Rising" 8 Apples in Stereo: "No One Can See Me Like You Do" 9 The Brother Brothers: "Yes I'm a Witch" 10 Cat Power: "Revelations" 11 Polyphonic Spree: "You and I" 12 Jason Pierce (Spiritualized): "Walking on Thin Ice" 13 Antony and Hahn Rowe: "Toy Boat" 14 The Flaming Lips: "Cambridge 1969/2007" 15 The Sleepy Jackson: "I'm Moving On" 16 Hank Shocklee: "Witch Shocktronica Outro" 17 Craig Armstrong: "Shiranakatta (I Didn't Know)"
Yoko...I have mixed feelings about her. I mean, I like Cyn so much more, but Yoko I don't know. Half of me says, she just loved John, she wants to protect his memory and his music. The other half is saying, she broke up the beatles, she's a b****. Along that line. But, I mean I don't feel she was the WHOLE reason the Beatle's broke up. She might contributed.
See...mixed feelings.
