Ooh, That Sounds Familiar : 2 : Radiohead "Creep"

It's not very important, but it was recently dawned on me - how much Radiohead's seminal "Creep" sounds like The Hollie's "The Air That Your Breathe".

Infact, so much so that Thom Yorke credits Phil Everley on their version.

 Another to be filed under "Talent Borrows, Genius Steals (Shits Copy)" I suppose.

 The Hollies "The Air That I Breathe"


 Uncanny. Only so many notes to go around I suppose.

Lake Ice's Cracking Star Wars Impression

The weird sound of ice cracking on a relatively large lake, must have been on a sound engineer's list for special effects for Star Wars?

International Space Station Time Lapse

One of my favourite things on Twitter is getting a tweet when the ISS is coming overhead (Follow Twisst here) and will be visible. Clever stuff. As it speeds across the sky, mostly unnoticed from people below - 'it's a bloody plane, you can't see satellites with the naked eye' etc etc I wonder what they can see below. Must be AMAZING - and watching this video, it clearly is.
