  • Amanda Palmer, best known as the front-woman of the punk cabaret band The Dresden Dolls, just released an album of covers where she re-imagines Radiohead's dour electro-rock with cheery ukulele. She performs "Creep" off her new album, Amanda Palmer Performs The Popular Hits Of Radiohead On Her Magical Ukulele, live in Studio 360. Listen to Kurt's conversation with Amanda Palmer: studio360.org/e....

    Saw her yesterday live. She performed this song not yet two metres away from me. No microphones or anything. Just her, her voice, and a ukulele.
    I just burst out in tears, it was so powerful.

    Its not about the quality of her singing. Its the emotion - she portrays the song perfectly, and her music is honest. She doesn't touch it up with editing like most artists. In her music, she uses her true, pure voice, and I think its very brave of her to do that.

      My thoughts exactly. There are performers who are 1000x more polished, thanks to production tricks and stupid auto-tune, but they don't come remotely close to what she brings to her performances.

      I can't believe that anyone got such chills from this performance. It's okay, and lot of covers are as good as Radiohead's because Hanke sounds pretty feeble on it. (I don't know much about Radiohead so maybe he doesn't sound feeble most of the time - okay I really should listen to a bit more of them.)
      The best version I've heard so far has been the one by Haley Reinhart with Postmodern Jukebox. I think Amanda's interpretation is more in line with Haley's although Haley goes far beyond Amanda.

      Ultimately you're right of course. I'm just saying, perhaps too strongly, that I didna think a lot of her performance, it left me unmoved, and I find it difficult to understand why it affects other people so strongly. Still, as you say, if others find it moving of course it's okay. Great virtuosity, fabulous voice, etc. aren't the whole story - although they can help enormously. Emotion needs to be communicated, and she manages that for some people, even if not for me. I can move on to other music I enjoy more although I must listen to a couple more songs Amanda because I might come across something by her that I could enjoy.

    She actually has a very strong voice when she wishes too, apparently you've never heard her perform this anywhere else. She just does it however she feels at the time, just like Radiohead never performed this song the same every time.

      Yes you can. She sings it mostly okay, but when she goes right up to the top of her range she definitely loses it a wee bitty. Maybe a lot of people like myself dislike the sound of a ukelele. A guitar instead would have improved it for me.
      The best version you'll hear is by Haley Reinhart singing with Postmodern Jukebox. A bit like Amanda, more passion than Radiohead, and more than Amanda.

    I wish she was accompanying herself on the guitar. I dislike the rinky-tink sound of the ukelele. It doesn't sound cheery, and if it did it would be inappropriate for the song. This is a good enough version compared to some, but how does anyone think it's remarkable? Being better than Radiohead doesn't make it remarkable. If you want a version that's remarkable, then listen to Haley Reinhart's version with Postmodern Jukebox, sad, anguished, impassioned - it's all there conveyed by real singing. A bit of a shock to the system because we're used to hearing the first part virtually whispered in a ....Ach weel, I'll not go on about it any further. Just listen to Haley Reinhart really make something of the song with her definitive version.
