over heard the rhythm in one of the youtube clips this morning. it sounded so familiar to me. i had to have heard it somewhere before... after digging deeper on the net, i found the song title: 『Wish You Were Here』. what i remembered is actually the gregorian's version:



this gregorian's version has more electronica and chanting elements. it is one of my favourite tracks from the band.

this song is originally from Pink Floyd (rock version):



however, my favourite version is this sparklehorse's cover version featured by Thom Yorke. i like it mainly cos of its rhythm: soft and catching. the best part for me is the guitar and piano.

someone claims that Thom Yorke's vocals was recorded over the phone from his hotel room, and that the "noise" in the background is from the TV in that hotel room... duno whether it's true or not...
