See, even the greatest artists respect and admire those before them. It's always cool to hear one of your favorites talk about theirs. We love you Thom!
Hey Thom, if I met Neil I'd be babbling too...thanks for sharing this story, now I don't feel like such a weird fanatic...btw I love your version of On the Beach, I think it's probably the best, most heartfelt cover of any Neil song I've ever heard by anyone.
Thom Yorke has a voice like Neil Young's, and a gift for writing songs just like Graham Nash. Pretty good! But you gotta remember -- NO ONE is in the same league as Christ.
and if i ever get famous and meet thom yorke, im gonna ask to play bullet proof or something like that and tell him how much i love his fucking music and how it probably saved my fucking life!!!!!!
i saw yorke sing this at young's benefit.
it was a good day to die.

very interesting to hear of neil's influence upon thom.
i saw neil live in concert in 1985 and his guitar solo for 'cortez the killer' blew my little 15 yr old mind...
