    This is an excellent album that manages to be both a mature summary of an artist's career and something completely fresh and new.

    The good news: Ono, as usual, doesn't need our approval--not just because she's rich and famous and fuck you, but because her music stands on its own.

    Love her or hate her, Between My Head And The Sky isn't terrible. Yoko Ono is still in the game, and if it's possible to find a deeper meaning to lyrics like "Why is [the elephant] so big/ He says because you're small honey," then more power to her.
