To be fair
it must be really difficult for her.
She's got a good voice for a 13 year old, but she'll struggle to be taken seriously as an artist because of who she is.
I wonder if radiohead have recognised that, and think they are helping her out credibility wise.
If I didn't know who that was I'd like it. So I like it despite the fact it's Wikkedy wah wah's daughter singing over a Radiohead tune. So what?
It's not like Radiohead have sold out. They stopped giving a fuck about things like that years ago. If they ever did.

I think you hit the nail on the head with "if I didn't know how it was..."
I'm a big Radiohead 'fan' (ugh) insomuchas I've bought most of their back catalogue and liked all of it. I love how they've mutated over the years and tried out new things. And I don't see this as a sell out. Other people have sampled/covered their tracks. Scroobius Pip used Planet Telex on Letter From God To Man or whatever it was called, and that uber-cunt Mark Ronson did that fuck awful ear-rape version of Just about 4 years ago. I already hated that cunt anyway so it was expected. Anyway, back to the point. I like this track. I don't see how Radiohead are selling out at all.

One of my (possibly irrational) pet hates is hearing entertainers described as artists. If what you create has its commercial potential as its central concern, you are not an artist. In my extremely pompous opinion.
