Emo Kitten Listens to Radiohead

They start young, don't they? First it's burrowing in a newspaper cone listening to Radiohead, next it's guyliner and morbid poetry. Go outside and enjoy the sun, kitten!

Kermit Sings Radiohead's Creep

Oh, man. I remember when we posted Kermit singing "Hurt" by Nine Inch Nails. It instantly killed a part of my childhood. Well, now we have Kermit singing an equally depressing song from Radiohead - their classic "Creep." He wishes he were f•ucking special. You are f•ckin special, Kermit, you are! (Make sure you watch until you get to the end when Fozzie Bear chimes in! Ha!)

Radiohead's Thom Yorke Is a Freak

And I love him for it. This spectacularly talented and weird front man for Radiohead appeared on a game show in England and asked the panel a question about the band's most recent release, In Rainbows. He wanted to know what was special about it? You, Thom, you!

Sexy Beast of the Day: Thom Yorke of Radiohead

Give me a talented (and brooding) man with non-Brad Pitt looks and I'm a-swoonin'. Thom, if you're reading this, please be my Valentine. I don't think you're a creep. I'll dump Hasselhoff for you - fast. Just say the word.

PSAs as Music Videos: Good For Message, or the Band?

TresSugar — Thu, 16 Jul 2009 09:00:00 -0700

Stereogum says this antisex-trafficking PSA will do more for the band behind it, The Killers, than promote awareness of the crime. A collaboration between UNICEF, MTV EXIT (End Exploitation and Trafficking), and the US Agency for International Development, the video began airing yesterday on MTV stations around the world. Guess MTV does play videos!

Set to the track "Goodnight, Travel Well," off The Killers' Day and Age album, the video is the second in a series of PSA music videos. The first, set to Radiohead's "All I Need," was for human trafficking and child labor. It maintained a clear message throughout by juxtaposing two boys' days - one going to school and coming home and the other working in a factory. The less-obvious "Goodnight, Travel Well," shows a young woman go from excited to reticent on a date several times until we see she's just returned from her forced-labor job as a sex worker. Check it out and tells us what you think. Effective or not?

Hottest aliens ever: Tilda Swinton and Radiohead's Thom Yorke. (Thanks for the idea, Bella!)

Julien, The French Sanjaya

Now that Sanjaya's been eliminated from American Idol, we must find another bad singer to pay too much attention to. Enter Julien, France's answer to Sanjaya on "Nouvelle Star." Here, he reveals more than he wants to by choosing to sing (in a very thick French accent) the Radiohead hit: "I'm a creep/I'm a weirdo/What the 'ell am I doing here?/I don't belong here." Mmm hmm.
