Feb 24, 2016Overall, Witch Too mines Ono’s imaginative catalogue in search of hidden gems, buffing them up to sparkle anew. And ideally, the more inquisitive may even be moved to seek out the original versions of these tracks.
-
Feb 19, 2016Her second volume of collaborative remixes/re-recordings with diverse guests draws its source material from all stages of Ono’s career, and brings home not just how enduringly courageous she has been, both artistically and socially, but also underlines the vein of fierce feminism running throughout her recording career.
-
Feb 18, 2016The album paints a pleasingly knowing portrait of the 83-year-old giving her final say and raving it up regardless.
-
MojoFeb 3, 2016This repeat performance from marginally less familiar names might seem like a poor substitute for a new project. Happily, it's not. [Mar 2016, p.97]
-
Q MagazineFeb 3, 2016The thematic predecessor to this LP underlined Yoko Ono's re-evaluation as a musical envelope pusher by a new generation of artists including Cat power, Spiritualized and The Flaming Lips, who all reworked moments from her back catalogue. This sequel successfully repeats the trick. [Mar 2016, p.112]
-
Apr 4, 2016Yes, I'm a Witch Too may be somewhat uneven, but its wildly different tracks reaffirm that Ono's music contains multitudes.
-
Feb 23, 2016She follows up 2007’s covers and remixes album Yes, I’m a Witch with another collection that’s just as strong and intriguing, mainly because of the smorgasbord of indie and electro-pop oddballs and A-lister names attached to it.
-
Feb 17, 2016While Yes, I'm A Witch Too makes Ono's work more accessible by sanding down the more experimental edges, in doing so, it somewhat detracts from what makes Ono's great.
-
MagnetFeb 12, 2016Love it or hate it, in her hands or someone else's, Ono's music does what fine art has always done: It dares you to feel. [No. 128, p.54]
-
UncutFeb 3, 2016Most of the artists here, among them Moby, Miike Snow and Cibo Matto, find rich source material at the melodic end of her catalogue. [Mar 2016, p.77]
-
Feb 19, 2016Though it might not sound like a revelation, embracing the reality of Yoko Ono is the key to the success of Yes, I’m a Witch Too. Unfortunately, that’s only done here to varying degrees.
-
Feb 19, 2016This sequel takes a similar approach [of 2007 LP Yes I'm a Witch], to mixed effect.
-
Feb 17, 2016Ono brings out the unexpected in everyone, and even the most conventional indie pop acts sound edgy with her idiosyncratic vocals on top.... The album would have benefited greatly from more careful curation, though.
-
Feb 3, 2016This time, tUnE-yArDs, Ebony Bones, and Cibo Matto provide the three most interesting re-creations. Given the strength of their contributions, and the fact that Ono remains such an inspiration to so many experimental female musicians, it's a shame that more women weren't invited.
