    As a perpetually disappointed Radiohead fan and cellist, I just searched "radiohead cover cello" to confirm it was impossible to do a half decent cover. This blew me away. Easily the most detailed, precise and overall well-executed cover of theirs. Not only was the arrangement perfect, I've never heard someone replicate Yorke's vocals so perfectly, not to mention the guitar solo (!). Can't believe I never came across this until now..
