  • pffft KT is super talented.. enough said

  • tellement déçue!

  • as someone who has only heard the Radiohead version once. I think this is quite cute. I love how KT can make music her own when she covers it. I love her vocals on it!

  • You're entitled to that opinion, but I still think it's wrong. I don't find the note changes to be peculiar or exaggerated-quite the contrary, I think they fit the piano accompaniment she wrote rather well.

    Bringing out a dictionary definition, especially since I think it disagrees with your opinion, is not lazy. Lazy is calling someone who disagrees with you a rabid fan who thinks their music icon can do wrong. I got here through Radiohead, not KT. But we clearly disagree here-deal with it, k?

  • And to all the naysayers regarding criticism, just because somebody tries something different doesn't automatically make it good. It isn't immune to criticism.

    Comparatively this is a poor version compared to the original, such is the risk of doing covers.

  • @Foilnewt

    I think you'll find the vocal style of her performance she has applied to this cover is both "exaggerated" and "unwarranted" with the amount of pauses and peculiar note changes.

    Wacking out a dictionary definition is fucking lazy, especially when it backs up my point. If you disagree with me, you are clearly a KT Tunstall fan who believes she can do no wrong.

    Hey, don't get ME wrong, KT Tunstall is great. But this cover is "pretentious". End of, deal with it.

  • @drummerdickens

    Using 'pretentious' to describe a cover or other piece of music without backing it up with anything is just fucking lazy, as it's a shallow attempt at insulting criticism.

    Pretentious

    1 : a : making usually unjustified or excessive claims (as of value or standing) b : expressive of affected, unwarranted, or exaggerated importance, worth, or stature

    2 : making demands on one's skill, ability, or means : ambitious

    Neither of those definitions apply to this cover.

  • @Foilnewt

    And you strike me as a bit of a twat. Fuck off till you have something constructive to say thanks bye.

  • @drummerdickens

    Your comment strikes me as a bit pretentious.

  • Yeah, as a professional musician, you don't want to do an exact copy of another song.

    This was nice.
