Done right it works very well, a change of pace is not always bad IMO. OK, so some do not like the “strings”…Now I am not comparing to G N’ R, but November Rain was/is beautifully orchestrated song.

I would seriously love an entirely string-based album from Radiohead. Jonny is just incredible, there's no other member of a band out there I can think of who's capable of writing & arranging like this. But why the hell did Thom have to sing it like he's suffered a stroke? It's probably the most serious subect he's ever dealt with but there were a couple of moments in there where he sounded so ridiculous I actually laughed out loud. I don't think Nigel Godrich or the rest of Radiohead even bother listening to his voice any more. Using Patch's words was a nice idea but it didn't work very well with the music IMO. Oh well, it was certainly heartfelt and the money's going to a great cause. So buy this track, don't download it for free!
