Mark Ronson finished 2007 off on a high with his
album 'Version' being one of the best selling albums
of the year, which saw him have 3 epic hit singles
in the form of 'Stop Me', 'Oh My God' and 'Valerie',
the man has also just won best male solo artist
at the 2008 Brit Awards and what a better way to
celebrate than release your fourth single. Mark's
latest single release is 'Just' which is his version
of the classic Radiohead track.
I have really enjoyed the 3 singles that Mark
Ronson has released previously but there is something
about 'Just' that makes me wonder why did Mark
go through the effort of changing such a classic
song and how did the Radiohead front man Thom
Yorke agree to this butchering of one of his classic
songs. 'Just' features Alex Greenwald from the
Phantom Planet's on vocals and has a lot of big
band soul attitude.
The single also features 3 remixes of 'Just'
they all sound different from each other but don’t
really add any excitement to the song.
Its a shame how 'Just' has turned out, Mark Ronson
is a talented man, Radiohead are a legendary band
and Alex Greenwald has some fantastic vocals,
but the mixture of Mark Ronson remixes Radiohead
with Alex Greenwald on vocals does nothing whatsoever
for me.
2/5
