Wassup, rockers!
Someone made a CD of music for babies using Radiohead songs. It's called "Rockabye Baby: Lullaby Rendtions of Radiohead", and I'm still not sure how I feel about this. I mean, yeah, I want my kids to like good music, but who likes the music we heard when we were babies? I don't have "Who Are the People In Yr Neighborhood?" on my iPod, and I don't guess I will anytime soon. Plus, I'm not sure I want to expose my babies to the bleak alienation of Radiohead. So I guess I'm against it. But the good news is they used songs from the 2 really good Radiohead albums (The Bends and OK Computer), before they started making what pretentious folks call "soundscapes", generally unlistenable if you aren't on drugs. (Now every time they're about to release an album, it is described as "a return to the guitar epics of OK Computer", but then I buy it and it's just a bunch of 7 minute tracks full of beeping. I'm not believing them anymore. I'm not buying any Radiohead albums unless they actually name one No More Fucking Beeping, We Promise.)
Anyway.
This company has also used music by Coldplay (of course), Pink Floyd, The Cure, and Metallica (!) I think they should do Rockabye Baby: Lullaby Renditions of Limp Bizkit. They could change the lyrics to make it more funny to babies.
