RE: CREEP - PMJ studio version with HALEY - drusome - 04-11-2015
Well this is my first post here though I have to admit to some serious lurking in the shadows as I have to keep up to date with all things Haley .. once halienated always a Halien.
Anyway this Creep cover has motivated me to post. I was somewhat active on Idol Forums and youtube back in the day but kinda fell silent as time went by.
I have enjoyed everything that Haley has done since Idol but in retrospect there was this nagging doubt: what if I I hadn't experienced Haley on AI..would I be listening to Free or Listen Up with enthusiasm or would it have passed me by? Was Haley's brilliance on Idol a one off thing, a product of that moment in time? Creep has completely answered that question. I am 100% certain that if I had never heard of AI or had been completely absent for season 10 I would be completely transported by this. It is simply an awe inspiring totally captivating performance.
It communicates in a very relatable way. I have always liked the song but never really related to it. So how come? Haley is uncreepiness personified yet its very convincing. I guess we all have that creepy potential and given the right (or wrong) circumstances anybody could become that. Also the one thing a total creep would be unable to do is admit it or even be aware of it. On the other hand a person could have a really rather mild creepy episode and then labour for years with feelings of guilt and self loathing. Also there is something of a redemptive quality to it as in "I am an alcholic" in that a declaration can open the door to hope and resolution.
Anyways I just love it when a performance is both mind blowing and thought provoking at the same time.
I suppose I could be said to be something of a fair weather fan - so many thanks to those that have kept the home fires burning here and elsewhere during the quieter times.

Boy were there long stretches of 'dry times'.....
I've seen quiet a few familiar names start popping up now they feel there's something to talk about.... I think the train's going to start filling up
Welcome aboard

Thanks for posting, dru. That's a good acid test. I too am certain the performance would have captivated me if I wasn't familiar with Haley. In fact, I wondered to myself earlier today what it must be like to hear "Creep" performed by Haley when you know nothing of her. We at least had some idea of what she can do.

I've had my CreepO2 compared to this performance from American Idol, a 'post Idol' House of the Rising Sun type performance, when she stamped a permanent mark on her Season. Breathing her essence into an old song, Haley finally stepping out from behind the curtain and on full display in all her vocal glory
It was when alot of people took notice of Haley, she was no longer an afterthought

Thanks for posting that video, I have watched it a lot but not in a while. I love Patti's reaction at the end - Harry's too. Being musicians they knew she nailed it in an extraordinary way.

Pat tweets Haley related things to them often (and sometimes gets a reply) sometimes hoping they can get Haley or Casey back to Minnesota, I think this is a response after one of her tweets to them

"Central Texas' Greatest Hits"
Quote:When you get into a business, you see the inner workings. When that happens the business loses some of its “magic”. After 20 plus years in radio, I’ve become pretty jagged. New songs don’t impress me at all, and I honestly can’t recall the last time a song surprised me in a good way. This afternoon, I was surprised.
There’s a cover group out there called Vintage Postmodern Jukebox that puts an old time feel on modern classics. They replace the distorted guitars with piano’s and throw in some swingin’ horns. I’ve seen a few of their video’s on YouTube, and they’ve been O.K. but this afternoon I saw there latest effort and I was shocked. Shocked at the fact that I sat through the whole thing, and all the while, with a smile on my face. The most amazing part of this is, it’s a cover of a song I’m not a fan of.
The song is “Creep”. It was originally done by the group Radiohead. It’s a very angst type of song that was big in the 90′s. When it came out in 1992, I was “over” whatever pubescent anger I had, so this type of music no longer appealed to me.
Vintage Postmodern Jukebox got some help on there version from former American Idol contestant Haley Reinhart, and now “Creep” is song I love. See for yourself the type of thing that surprises a jagged old DJ
Killeen, TX home to Ft. Hood and thousands of young men and women born after this song was debuted. That has to be good.

RE: CREEP - PMJ studio version with HALEY - Jastal - 04-12-2015
Can I say how happy I am that Haley DIDN'T sing Creep on AI as she wanted to? Not only would this have labelled it a Haley "AI" song, it is likely we never would have heard this exquisite full length version with the unforgettable climax.
Also, will we ever hear this version of Creep on the Radio? I think it would appeal to Pop and Alternative listeners (IMO...maybe even more then Jazz) but I guess will mean stations will need to take a chance on something a bit new.
Welcome Drusome...with all the excellent commentary, I don't post much, but I really enjoy this site!!

A small Harlem-based label that just won a Grammy for "Best Latin Jazz Album" reached out to Haley on Twitter.

Good point. It likely would have been different without Scott's input too.

LA PLUS BELLE REPRISE DE CREEP DE RADIOHEAD
(A beautiful cover of Raidohead's Creep)
(A beautiful cover of Raidohead's Creep)
HOLY CATS, now that's a web page header
Google translate (with a couple adjustments):
Quote:YouTube allows many amateur musicians to showcase and demonstrate their talent. We talked about it here . Successfully capture a song to deliver uniquely is an art in itself. Few occasions are truly transcendent . The bar even higher to achieve when the original song is a gem.
Postmodern Jukebox jazz training this week launched a ma- gni - ficent cover of Radiohead's Creep . A version that showcases the sublime interpretation of their singer Haley Reinhart .
Wow, is not it?
Notice all the variations in the voice of this singer who has the ability to go from a hoarse voice (growl?) to a powerful voice (without never cry !). IT is singing.
Behind the pianist Scott Bradlee , drummer Chip Thomas , bassist Adam Kubota , saxophonist Ben Golder - Novick and James Hall trombone player stand exactly where it is needed : a flawless canvas that follows the waves of intensity their singer , subtly , never did steal the show . (never overshadows the singer?)
Just , wow .

And the first youtube that went up reached a huge number (1M?) overnight then disapeared the next day. So yes, a lot of people!
