Creep, by Radiohead.
Radiohead is one of those bands I absolutely experienced first through MTV. In later years, I remember sitting at the bar at the vegan comfort food spot on Avenue B, where I heard Kid A for the first time on the day it came out, because excited indie rockers were excited, though outnumbered by the hardcore kids in that place.
(Pour one out for Kate’s Joint. No, seriously, pour it out, because their liquor license was the beginning of the end. Not that I’m bitter. *glares in Unturkey Club*)
Anyway, yes, Radiohead. I don’t know how to sing this song without sounding sincere, because it’s sincere as fuck.

Had fun with this one on a weekday, layering in parts during quiet moments between calls and crises. Multiple guitars and vocals, several loops, and all the perils of manually playing the drums on the midi keyboard to record the loops, then listening to them sort of gradually slide out of time, maybe? It gets hard to tell after you’ve been listening for a while, I think.
