SummersRadio™ STARTLEFEST 2011 Halloween Spectacular Continues! Yoko Ono & The Brother Brothers - 'Yes, I'm A Witch' Few people are as loved and loathed at the same time as Yoko Ono. 'Yes, I'm A Witch' is a track from an album called 'A Story' which was recorded in 1974 - but it didn't get a proper release until 1997. Then in 2007 the song was included on - and served as the title for - a remix album where artists such as Peaches, The Flaming Lips, Le Tigre and Spiritualized were invited to cover or remix the Yoko Ono song of their choosing!
While Yoko's playing up to some of her haters in the lyrics of this song - I also like how she stands up for herself and the outsider and underdog in all of us - by pointing out the importance of being true to ourselves. To quote a few lines:
'Were gonna say,
Were gonna try,
Were gonna try it our way.
Weve been repressed,
Weve been depressed,
Suppression all the way.
Were not gonna die for you,
Were not seeking vengeance,
But were not gonna kill ourselves for your convenience.'
This is Yoko Ono & The Brother Brothers with the amped up 2007 version of 'Yes, I'm A Witch'... Enjoy!
