that’s not radiohead idiot. that MP3 has been floating around since the days of napster. do you really think that radiohead would cover a deftones song? do the internet a favour and stop writing blogs idiot.

Wow, thanks for that Mr or Ms Anonymous! How very noble of you to scour the blogosphere for such horrible and unforgivable errors. I’m going to go out back to whip myself silly now. After I crawl back inside, while nursing my bloody body, I’ll cancel my blogger account, right before stabbing myself with the broken pieces of my smashed mouse.

And you, you must continue! Don’t let anyone stop you doing what is right.
What is good!
Your quest is a noble one!

P.s. I think I saw an erroneously tagged Animal Collective/Pink Floyd cover somewhere a few months back.
I didn’t have the guts to say anything about it, but you, Mr Anonymous, I think YOU do!

Wouldn’t the world be a much better place if there were more anonymous cowards around to be mean to people for no apparent reason!? Hey, here’s an idea: If you don’t like the blog or the music, instead of bitching… you could of course just fuck off and die you halfwit impotent cretin son of a biatch loser cunt faced penis brain.

I’m sorry guys. I was having a bad day. My wife left me and my dog died. I think they’re unrelated but I’m not sure. Either way, I shouldn’t have taken my anger out on you. I apologize.

Don’t worry about it! A dead dog and a wife leaving you, well, that’s a pretty bad day, whichever way you look at it… Some would turn to drink. Some to drugs. ‘Turning to blog’ is probably a better option.

I love cover versions – Check out my takes on “That’s Entertainment” and a host of others here…

Oops, sorry, here are the covers…

Was redirected from hypemachine to here for Kayne’s Love Lockdown remix. Can’t place the remix, but best I’ve heard so far (probably because it is so club friendly).

Полностью разделяю Ваше мнение. В этом что-то есть и идея отличная, согласен с Вами.

Stumbled on this page through google, just figured I’d say hi and will checkup from time to time. Cheers
