Hanson - Optimistic (Radiohead Cover)

Just one of these cases, you know, when you shouldn't judge a band on their one hit they had as kids.

This is pretty much the best Radiohead cover I have heard.

I have a friend who's a big Hanson fan, and she played this for me once. It's a brilliant cover.

It really is.

if it wasnt for the girls screaming i would download it right away.

Yeah the screaming is just.. WHAT. It's always been beyond my understanding.
Agreed it's a good cover, although I prefer covers where the artist bring you know, something different to the song, makes it their own, whereas this felt more like they were trying to sound as Radiohead as they can. But yeah, good job Hanson boys:D

I agree but I don't see how they would be able to do that live and still make it sound good. I mean, and in this case I think it's actually more daring trying to sound like the original.

The screaming kind of makes me feel glad that I missed seeing the backstreet boys when I was 6 (I had my ticket, but they cancelled).
