Yoko Ono Reveals All-star Bad Dancer Video

by Roger Wink, VVN Music on November 6, 2013

in New Music,News

Yoko Ono has released an all-star video for her new song ‘Bad Dancer’.

At age 80, Ono has released her 15th album ‘Take Me To The Land Of Hell’, featuring the ‘Bad Dancer’ song.

Last week, Paul McCartney gave us a star studded video for his single Queenie Eye and now we have another star filled affair (though on a slightly lesser level) from Yoko.

Bad Dancer is the latest video from Ono’s album Take Me to the Land of Hell and includes guest appearances by Roberta Flack, Ad Rock and Mike D of the Beastie Boys, Questlove of the Roots, Greg Saunier of Deerhoof, Reggie Watts, Heems, Yuka Honda and Miho Hatori of Cibo Matto and Ira Glass of the program This American Life.

Yoko will be in Australia for her War is Over exhibition at the Sydney Opera House next week.

When the John Lennon Estate announced the release of the Power To The People deluxe box set, much of the attention naturally went to the remastered tracks, rare recordings, and newly unearthed video content. But among the archival treasures is something far less conventional—a quirky, avant-garde experiment called Clock. Filmed by John Lennon in 1971 during the creation of Imagine, Clock is as much a window into Lennon’s restless creativity as it is a document of the day-to-day rhythm of his life with Yoko Ono.
