Song of the day for 09/25/09

Thom Yorke - "All for the best"

Radiohead are one of my favorite bands, they were definitely an acquired taste, as I didn`t initially like them. It took me a while to adjust to Thom Yorke`s falsetto voice, but once I did, I could see why they`re considered so great.

This song is a solo outing for singer Thom Yorke, and if you read the context in which the song was made you`ll find quite a sad story behind it. Read all about it here:

Love the drum beat that starts and is prevalent throughout the whole song, very similar sounding to "These are my twisted words". Rather emotional song once you realize the context.
