Released: May 9, 1969

Songwriter: Yoko Ono John Lennon

Producer: John Lennon Yoko Ono

“Bodyrock” was the song both of my managers tried to get me to take off the record. They thought it was really tacky. They thought it sounded like a Fatboy Slim ripoff — which I guess it kind of did. I like it because the hip-hop sample was off the first mixtape I ever got, maybe in 1981, off of the Mr. Magic Show on WBLS. The guitar is directly inspired by “What We All Want” by Gang of Four. And I thought it was kind of funny to have an orchestral chorus on what is essentially a hip-hip song”. (c) Moby, RollingStone.com Read more on Last.fm.

John Lennon & Yoko Ono is a duo made of the Beatles‘ John Lennon and his wife Yoko Ono.

They released a series of three avant-garde concept albums, Unfinished Music No. 1: Two Virgins, Unfinished Music No. 2: Life with the Lions, and Wedding Album These three experimental albums conceptually document their life together from initial consummation (immediately after recording Two Virgins), to the media frenzy and hospitalization/miscarriage that came shortly after with Life with the Lions, and finally a conceptual invitation to their wedding with Wedding Album.

They would later perform in various permutations of Plastic Ono Band.
