Song of the Week


king of limbs

Check out the video for "Lotus Flower" from Radiohead's The King of Limbs, downloadable tomorrow. One youtube comment said the video was Radiohead's version of "Single Ladies." (If they don't win an award, maybe Kanye can intervene). No doubt Thom Yorke channels some crushing R&B-style vocals over strange and groovy beats from the greatest session band in the world. Imagine if Sam Cooke got to sing with Greenwood and company? As for the dancing, Thom Yorke channels himself, and seems to give only the slightest of winks. Who says this band doesn't have a sense of humor?
