OK Computer Turns 10

Saturday officially marked the 10th anniversary of Radiohead’s 3rd album (and one of Hypeful’s desert island discs) - OK Computer. Hypeful wanted to celebrate the occasion, but deciding which ace track to share from the album was no easy task. Perhaps the best way to pay tribute to OK is by showing how the album has influenced others from across genres. So, here’s cover versions (ranging from reggae to electronic to children’s lullabye) of every track from OK Computer for your enjoyment!

MP3s:
Rockabye Baby - “Airbag”
Sia - “Paranoid Android”
The Illuminati- “Subterranean Homesick Alien”
Glen Phillips - “Exit Music (For a Film)”
Easy Star All*Stars - “Let Down”
The Dresden Dolls - “Karma Police”
Silent Gray - “Fitter Happier”
The String Quartet - “Electioneering”
Sneaker Pimps - “Climbing Up The Walls”
Shawn Lee - “No Surprises”
John Frusciante - “Lucky”
Space Bee - “The Tourist”
