I know, I’ve been remiss in my Radiohead listening duties. I’ve been more busy than usual lately and it’s been harder for me to get deep into OK Computer and pay attention, as what’s clearly the best song is 2nd on the album (as opposed to “My Iron Lung” being the 8th song on The Bends).
Idol just finished a few minutes ago. No one did anything too fantastic, although David C. certainly gave his least reprehensible performance. Syesha, of course, picked “I Will Always Love You,” and mimicked Whitney Houston. But Dolly Parton was a mistake, I think. I like Dolly just fine, but she’s a good songwriter, not a great one. Most of these songs just aren’t very good when sung by other people. A boring night overall.
