(8/9/2008) Yoko Ono's 2008 "Give Peace a Chance" remixes have hit the top spot on Billboard's Hot Dance Club Play chart.
Here's a statement Yoko issued Thursday:
GIVE PEACE A CHANCE
NUMBER ONE!
Yoko Ono is this weeks NUMBER ONE on the American Billboard Hot Dance Club Play Chart for the FOURTH time -
A feat unrivalled by any other artist of her generation.
The Billboard Hot Dance Club Play Chart is the most authoritative dance chart in America - meaning this week more American clubbers are dancing to Yoko Ono than to any other artist, whether in the dance or the mainstream genres.
ONO’s previous Billboard No.1 dance singles have been:
- Walking On Thin Ice (May 2003)
- Everyman Has A Man Who Loves Him/
- Every Woman Has A Woman Who Loves Her (Nov 2004)
- No No No (Jan 2008)
- Give Peace A Chance (v1) (v2) (Aug 2008).
Ono’s current album "Yes, I’m A Witch" has seen her work reinterpreted by some of the most credible contemporary figures in music, including Antony Heggarty, Cat Power, Jason Pierce and the Flaming Lips. Meanwhile, she continues to combine her work as one of the world’s leading conceptual artists with making music and working as a peace activist.
The success of Ono’s new version of Give Peace A Chance proves that the peace message John Lennon and Yoko worked so hard to spread has been adopted by a new generation of clubbers, music fans and DJs, to whom Yoko says simply:
I thank you with all my heart and send you much love,
yoko
