Yeah, Earl, it WOULD be cool if there was a song about Michael! Just Saturday night, I was listening to Bob Dylan's Bootlegs Volume 3, and there was this song called "Catfish". I though "probably a blues kinda song." To my amazement, it was about pitcher Catfish Hunter. Catfish was a Eastern North Carolina native, and the streets that I call home were his old stomping ground. Sadly, he died quite recently...but I never knew anyone hat written a song about him. I need to add that one to my repetoire, in memory of a great Tarheel and a great man.Thanks Brett, I LOVED what you wrote! It's also neat because Radiohead is very well know for writing acoustic, folk-ish songs. In fact, at their concerts, they tend to do a lot of their songs acoustically, which really brings out that aching, solitary, haunting feeling they aspire to.
