Description
Walking on Thin Ice" is a song by Yoko Ono, released in 1981. She and John Lennon concluded the recording of the song on December 8, 1980. It was upon their return from the recording studio to their home in New York City that Lennon was murdered. Lennon was clutching a tape of a final mix when he was shot.
The haunting "Walking On Thin Ice" is an awesome track, with distorted guitar work by John Lennon (which would sadly prove to be the last time he played a guitar), and a dance beat to go along with it.
Elvis Costello recorded a version on the album Every Man Has a Woman (1984). We've Got a Fuzzbox and We're Gonna Use It (aka Fuzzbox) released as at single in 1989, peaked at #76 in the UK charts. The Picketts also recorded a version, (1985) as did Tila Tequila on her EP Welcome to the Dark Side (2010).
Siouxsie Sioux performed it live with original guitarist Earl Slick and tabla player Talvin Singh, at Ono's Meltdown Festival in London in 2013.
