Hmmmm i also had this a month or so ago....i put it on whilst telling Jan, my girlfriend about this great cover of pink flods song..etc etc
When it came on we thought..hmmmm ok, lets just give it a chance..
After about halfway through we both looked at each other and said....naaaaa to tell you the truth i was a bit disappointed, knowing radioheads pretty unique ability to work with atmospheric music and change the feelings throughout song(NO i am not some radiohead fan!), id did think it would be great.
It isnt .
Wosrst attempt at a pink floyd cover ever!
I can do it MUCH better
Wish You Were Here cover - radiohead/sparklehorse

I've said this a billion times, but I'll say it again
RADIOHEAD IS NOT INVOLVED IN THIS COVER!!! THOM YORKE OF RADIOHEAD DOES A SMALL VOCAL PART OVER THE PHONE TOWARDS THE END OF THE SONG, BUT THE SONG ITSELF IS BY SPARKLEHORSE!!!
Sorry for getting so worked up, but people saying "Radiohead shouldn't touch WYWH" bugs the hell out of me, as Radiohead never has touched WYWH. Sparklehorse has, and people saying "Sparklehorse shouldn't touch WYWH" would not only be fine with me, but would please me, since it would tell me that someone has actually realised that Radiohead has next to nothing to do with the cover.

I haven't heard that, but it doesn't really matter. That pretty much means that Radiohead was going to appear on it but didn't. Emphasis on the didn't bit.Keith Jordan wrote:Indeed, but I heard they were on the way to the studio to do it but they got delayed so Thom did something over the phone for it!!Useful Idiot wrote:RADIOHEAD IS NOT INVOLVED IN THIS COVER!!!
