Anyone heard this? It's been getting a bit of airtime on Radio 1.

yeah it sounds quite good. Colin and Edith had it as their CD burner a few weeks back and the general consensus from other listeners was good. i think there is going to be a whole albums worth of Radiohead remixes coming out soon.

Not had the chance to hear this yet, but if it is anything like the quality of his Here Comes the Fuzz album I can believe it's good.

Well, until I just listened to it, I couldn't imagine how anyone could bring anything new to such a fabulous song, but this is really rather good.

As and avid Radiohead fan, I have to say that I don't hate this song!

I'm surprised, he didn't butcher it, thankfully. He was on Colin and Edith's show last week (I think) and he said that his album's got loads of songs by good artists on, all done in the funk styleé.

Sacrilege - he's trying to copy Mr York's vocal style almost exactly so is therefore instanly dismissed as anything credible.

Secondly, he's pushing himself through MySpace so is shown as being a talentless bandwagon groupie.

Bye bye Mr Ronson - you're 0.5 Nanoseconds are up.

I used to be really into Acid Jazz / Jazz Funk, so I like it. And I'm a big Radiohead fan too.

I like it but apparently there are some right stinkers on that album as well.

Maybe it's just nice to hear something that's not R&B or rap on the radio

Erm, he's been around as a DJ/Producer for years mate. Not only that but the song is great, go clean out your ears.

Cheers,
Rob.

I know, which makes GingerNinja's arse-trumpetry all the more funny.
