The curse of Radiohead strikes X-Factor again
Not that I’m watching it or paying attention or anything. But just to say how relieved I am that the guy who was in the final 24, and in the final 6 of the solo singers, who chose to sing Radiohead’s ‘Creep’ in his best baritone voice (”Oymmm a crrreeeppp… oym a werrrrdooooo…”) got binned.
As regular readers will know, if you haven’t got Thom Yorke’s voice or the requisite teenage amount of self-loathing, you oughta stay well away from that song. A trillion high school and college fresher Americans loved it, but most people can’t make it sound right.
(How apt that the song on my iPod as I write is Radiohead’s “Just”.)
