Thom Yorke sings this one so convincingly, you’d almost believe he was no longer a virgin. [The Music Slut]

3. Interpol, “Mind Over Time”
Interpol add piano to their lineup. Amazingly, it still sounds like Joy Division. [The Music Slut]

The erstwhile Fugee attempts to impress a lady by rewriting “Hips Don’t Lie.” [Nah Right]

5. Uncle Murder, “Lick the Rapper”
Inadvisable? Yes. Catchy? Also yes. [Nah Right]

6. The Flaming Lips, “After the Goldrush” (Neil Young cover)
The Lips cover Young’s song about environmental conservation, which is Wayne Coyne’s third favorite thing after synthesizers and LSD. [Some Velvet Blog]
