    For God's sake, I'm ashamed of a green note for that. I'm too devastated...

    The new arrangements are quite good, but Yoko's voice is no longer the powerful and expressive instrument it once was. Her speak-singing here often sounds tentative or rushed. Sadly, age seems to have caught up with Yoko. Best tracks: Hell in Paradise, Now or Never, Imagine.

    While some may not see these recordings displacing the originals as their go-to version, "I Love All of Me" is an example of Ono's new take being a compelling update.

    If by representing these protest songs Ono intended to convey how little has changed since she first recorded them in the spirit of social activism then she has succeeded, but Warzone also highlights how the conversation has evolved.

    Because its overt politics now feel so inadequate, Warzone works best as a melancholy gesture, a long look back at a time when dreaming of a better world felt invigorating rather than exhausting.
