Lol Tough day for #RudyColludy. The #drunken, #flatulent, melting hair-dye #creep known for staging a truly amazing press conference in front of Four Seasons Total Landscaping has lost #RubyFreeman and #ShayeMoss' #defamation case against him, with the #judge issuing a default #judgement against him. This is what happens when you #lie about innocent people with reckless abandon.
(0/54) Ever think, “Radiohead’s ‘Creep’ is such a fantastic song. I should find and listen to many, many different versions of it!”?
No? Well … a few weeks ago, I did just that. I started a project of sorts which involved spending hours finding all manner of covers of Creep by Radiohead, so you don't have to!
Go ahead and listen to all of them, and let me know what you think of them…
(52/54) I really want this 43 second vignette from Melina Melle to be the full song, because it is hauntingly pretty with her voice in the unlikely acoustics of a stairwell: https://youtu.be/F9BVG31Owz0
(53/54) Bringing us home, after over 50 covers … the OG version we’re all familiar with, by Radiohead themselves (always among the best, no matter what): https://youtu.be/XFkzRNyygfk
(54/54) To top it all off and finish the list, a magnificent live performance, again actually performed by Radiohead themselves: https://youtu.be/US0CUegPr3g
Oh, wow, Pentatonix covered Creep, now. I guess they must have seen my thread. ;) Gosh, that's a much harder sound than their usual. Interesting stuff. I wish there were video of them singing it.
Shout-out to Ashlena and her reaction to Haley Reinhart/PMJ's majestic cover of "Creep", in which she also referenced a couple of others from this thread. YouTube knew I had to see the video. https://youtu.be/9v2VQk0TPGY
The fun thing is that Ashlena also pointed out a cover I HADN'T ever seen/heard!
Kina Grannis' cover of "Creep" starts out fairly quiet/mellow. Solo on acoustic guitar. Her voice is great. Strong but with an ethereal quality. This isn't a blow-you-away-with-the-crescendo one, but it's very nice.
This is a slow burn cover accompanied by piano and strings from Fatin Majidi. They've definitely gone for a haunting feel with post-production on her voice. I'm not convinced her voice needed it, but it's a valid artistic choice.
Next up in the flood of new recs, Bubble Dia. I like her take in a lower key than some, and a (musical/singing) run on a single "run" rather than a "run run run run" during that crescendo. Nicely done.
This one from Connie Park is very scaled back. Audio isn't the best, and she skips the crescendo, which is a little disappointing ... but it is sweetly soft, so I'm including it.
