Any of you lot heard this?

I don't normally like 'covers' like this, unless they're are
done with real reverance for the original, yet are valid and
original in their own right. Her piano playing is solid and
she does a good job of reducing whole tracks to piano solos
without losing much in the translation.

Ironically, the rest of the lyric, "/she buzzes like a
fridge/she's like a detuned radio" are applicable to the
title of the album. Sadly, it's her voice for me ruins it.
She hasn't got a bad voice, even if it does have a
bit too much "air" to it, nor is her singing sub-par
technically, but it just doesn't sound 'right' for
Radiohead.

Still, expect to have it played to you by middle-aged
friends/family members at dinner parties and at trendy jazz
cafes.

i hate it when women say "she..." does this or that
like they refer to themselves in the third person
i understand it's a lyric but still it's so egotistical
