Young Tom Yorke could never have dreamt his that Albert Hammond's song would once be the sound track of Horror/Slapstick movie
Fixed it for ya! Thom "thievin'" Yorke, the man who closes an eyelid on what belongs to others!
And don't tell me that the I-III-IV-iv chord combination is so prevalent, "it's just a coincidence". Following a major I with a major III (and not a minor iii) is extremely rare as it's not in line with harmony theory. Before Creep I (thought I
***) had heard that chord change only in one song: The Air That I Breathe.
***Though to be fair, I've now learned Space Odditiy features it too, Bowie was always inventive with chords. And knowing Thom Yorke, he was probably more of a David Bowie than a Albert Hammond/Hollies listener.
But I bet Rob is gonna defend Yorke, because he thinks Radiohead is cooler than perennially unfashionable Albert Hammond or the Hollies.
