"Kiss Kiss Kiss" is a song by Yoko Ono. It was originally released on Double Fantasy, her joint album with John Lennon, and famously on the B-side of his "(Just Like) Starting Over" single. This is one of her most well-known songs, largely because it's the first one most people heard while listening to Double Fantasy for John's material. The "new wave"ish song features Ono gasping heavily and appearing to reach orgasm.
In 2002, following the success of "Open Your Box", the track was remixed by Superchumbo and released as a single. It reached #20 on the US dance charts.
In 2005 Detroit group The Dirtbombs included their cover of "Kiss, Kiss, Kiss" on their album If You Don't Already Have A Look.
Most recently, the track was remixed by Peaches for the Yes, I'm a Witch remix album.
In the beginning of the song, the lyrics "anata, daiteyo" (Japanese for "darling, hug me"), can be reversed and will supposedly give "I shot John Lennon". http://jeffmilner.com/backmasking.htm
