The full album is available for download at iTunes, which already topped the Jazz chart of Apple’s music store.Eliza Lumley: “I was a choral scholar at Cambridge, doing Palestrina, Tallis and Byrd, and I think that style suits the Radiohead material really well. The lyrics are so fantastic; quite hard and angular – and the music is so beautiful when it’s stripped bare. I think I’ve discovered other sides to the songs in the process. Not that they’re better than the originals in any way!” she hastens to add.But why Radiohead? “After Cambridge I studied singing at the Royal Academy of Music, and was very interested in cabaret and jazz – Rodgers and Hart and all those wonderful songs. But I felt slightly estranged from the music I was listening to, and discovering. just being a student at the time; which I suppose was indie-rock. So, I started to experiment with that.”Full tracklisting is as follows:1 High and Dry2 Black Star3 Street Spirit4 Let Down5 No Surprises6 Karma Police7 Lucky8 How to Disappear Completely9 Creep10 Bullet Proof..
