Mon Apr 14,10:27 AM ET
NEW YORK - Yoko Ono (news) may not fit the stereotype of a typical dance music artist, but she likes the fact that anything goes when it comes to dance music.
Seventy-year-old Ono's song, "Walking On Thin Ice," from the "Double Fantasy" album, has been remixed and the single is in the top ten of the dance music charts. Ono says when she heard the remixes, she was so touched she cried. It was the song she and former husband John Lennon (news) had been working on the night that he was shot in New York City in 1980.
The song is in the top 40 in national singles sales.
Yoko Ono goes by just Ono on the track, and she says it's her way of confronting all those people who see her and joke, "Oh no!"
She says that she also confronted being called "Dragon Lady" by referring to herself as that. Now she says, no one calls her that anymore.
Ono has been involved in painting, drawing, sculpting, photography and film for more than 40 years. "Yes Yoko Ono," a retrospective of her paintings, sculpture, music and memorabilia of her peace efforts with Lennon, exhibited in seven cities two years ago.
