Ok, this one I’m not surprised by given that I always knew Thom and Björk had good vibes and respect for each other since whenever. That culminated in one of the few songs that brought a tear to my eye, “I’ve Seen It All”; a duet featuring my fave male and female vocalists of all time.

I’m rediscovering why RH made me send out a bajillion emails detailing inane trivia about the band back in ‘97 to my friends. They hated me for the incessant buggering but appreciated the fact that I introduced them to one of the best, possibly the bestest band in the world ever even if they don’t think so. Thanks to the wonders of the intehnets, we can now marvel at this cover of Unravel off Homogenic and you can sample a taste of my incessant buggering too.

My favorite band playing my favorite song. More accurately, Radiohead with a cover of New Order’s Ceremony. I’m still in awe.

Oh by the way, “In Awe”, that’s the title of the New Order/Joy Division cover album by Radiohead set for release on the 30th of February 2008. You read it here first.
