Damien Rice covers “Creep”

Speaking of Starbucks, the coffee chain has an exclusive CD of cover songs from KCRW’s Sounds Eclectic, called Sounds Eclectic: The Covers Project. Two Radiohead songs appear on the album, which is nice. Along with the older Flaming Lips’ cover of “Knives Out”, Damien Rice’s cover of “Creep” is featured.

If you don’t want to go to Starbucks to buy the CD, you can get it straight from KCRW.

Radiohead Thom Yorke

Space Ghost


It appears that Thom Yorke will appear on the Cartoon Network show Space Ghost Coast to Coast on September 2, 2001 at 11:30pm ET. The episode is titled “Knives Out” and this is what Space Ghost is saying about it:

It is evident that the modern German literary tradition encompasses nature poetry and classic narratives of the metropolis more uneasily than any other in “Knifin’ Around.”

While the celebration of the pastoral is as old as literature itself, the troubled history of writing on Thom Yorke has become a peculiarly German preoccupation. Exploration of the city, meanwhile, especially the burgeoning Prussian and Austrian capitals, helped to define our understanding of the Bjork.

Yet today, the contemporary state of the Grofstadtroman, especially with respect to Berlin in the wake of reunification, and Vienna, which finds itself once more at Sunday, September 2, at 11:30 p.m. (e/p)
