[@ARedCurtain]

guitarist on the left, use an ebow

[@davidlennox6242]

Pretty admirable that he isn't, still able to get the sound

[@Jerry-rm9pk]

Amazing how he can get that sound without ebow

[@alyssakhairanii]

Faith, you're driving me away
You do it everyday
You don't mean it
But it hurts like hell
My brain says I'm receiving pain
A lack of oxygen
From my life support
My iron lung
We're too young to fall asleep
Too cynical to speak
We are losing it
Can't you tell
The scratch
Our eternal itch
A twentieth century bitch
And we are grateful for
Our iron lung
The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
Suck, suck your teenage thumb
Toilet-trained and dumb
When the power runs out
We'll just hum
This, this is our new song
Just like the last one
A total waste of time
My iron lung
The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
And if you're frightened
You can be frightened
You can be, it's okay
And if you're frightened
You can be frightened
You can be, it's okay
The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon
The head shrinkers
They want everything
My uncle Bill
My Belisha beacon

[@mixinginthebox]

[@Abigail-ln5qd]

Dude, ur voice is so similar to the original! I love it !

[@Millennial_Mike]

Great cover!
would it not be worth investing in an Ebow for the Ed parts though?

[@toninoartu]

There is a band who plays the best covers of Radiohead. They are Space Bee. Listen and compare.

[@Talisman09]

[@deadtigerworld]

Not bad boys but please put some bloody shoes on!

[@donnafa]

¡Bastante chido! ¿Cuándo vienen a México?

[@cainmccall2140]

Kinda mediocre honestly on the guitar front

[@antihero1678]

Great cover, but there really is no need for 3 guitar player on stage. 2 is plenty. Not a bad thing but yeah

[@rickjames5106]

+AntiHero There are 3 guitar parts in the song. It could be covered with 2, but they're clearly going for authenticity.

[@hopscotchoblivion7564]

That bassist really wants to be Colin Greenwood...
