About this song (Last.fm)
"Woman" is a 1981 single by John Lennon from his 1980 album Double Fantasy. Written by Lennon: it is an ode to his wife Yoko Ono, which is introduced by Lennon whispering, "For the other half of the sky ...", a paraphrase of a Chinese proverb, one used by Mao Zedong. In an interview for Rolling Stone magazine on December 5, 1980, Lennon said that "Woman" was a "grown-up version" of the song "Girl". "Woman" was the second single released from the Double Fantasy album, and the first Lennon single issued after his death on December 8, 1980. Read more on Last.fm.
