Our Take

YOKO ONO TRIBUTE Ocean Child: Songs Of Yoko Ono is a kaleidoscopic journey through the avant-garde mind of the one and only Yoko Ono. The album pays tribute to the pioneering artist with covers of her most iconic songs, reimagined by a diverse array of musicians.

From the eerie wails of "Walking on Thin Ice" to the hypnotic rhythms of "Don't Worry, Kyoko (Mummy's Only Looking for Her Hand in the Snow)," each track on Ocean Child captures the essence of Ono's boundary-pushing work. The album is a testament to her enduring influence on the music world.

Highlights include a haunting rendition of "Kiss Kiss Kiss" by indie darling Mitski, who brings a fresh perspective to the song with her ethereal vocals. Meanwhile, punk rockers IDLES inject new life into "Mrs. Lennon" with their ferocious energy and raw emotion.

While some tracks may be an acquired taste for listeners unfamiliar with Ono's unconventional style, Ocean Child is a bold and vibrant tribute that showcases the depth and breadth of her impact on music. So take a dive into this sonic ocean and let Yoko Ono's spirit wash over you. It's a wild ride that's sure to leave you mesmerized and inspired.
