exit music (for a film)

So, [livejournal.com profile] annavtree totally linked me to one of the new Kanye West (or is it Lupe Fiasco?) tracks, featuring Pharrell and Lupe Fiasco (or Kanye) and what did I notice first? Was it Kanye being awesome? Lupe? No. No, I noticed the plaintive white dude moaning over piano.

Oh, Thom fucking Yorke.

I can't tell which part delights me more: that I recognized Thom Yorke in a place I was absolutely not expecting to hear him or that the song samples from "The Eraser."

Us Placers - Lupe Fiasco, Kanye West, Pharrell (link totally gacked from Green Plastic Radiohead)

Youtube links, because sharing is caring:
Karma Police - Radiohead (1997, live at Glastonbury. God, it's ten years old? Augh.)
Karma Police - Panic! At the Disco (live in Denver. Check out Spencer on drums. When you are older, boo, you will *totally* be super hot.)

I still say that no one should be able to tell what the words are to Radiohead songs. No enunciating! I should not hear the "r" in karma! It just sounds wrong!

Go To Sleep (Jonny Greenwood goes crazy on his solo.)
2+2=5
Idioteque (absolutely phenomenal percussion.)
Street Spirit (I *love* this song. Love it. I would have this song's plaintively creepy babies)
Life in a Glass House (horns! love love love)
I Might Be Wrong (absolutely my favorite radiohead song)

Hm. Does loving Tool and Radiohead mean that I love prog? Or does it just mean I love music that sounds like an apocalypse?
