Well, this didn’t take very long. Benny Hill’s classic earworm makes everything 67% more delightful.

Perry’s post below also has Thom jiving to “Single Ladies” (and it works quite well, I must say).

Guess you’ve got your weekend meme, Internet! What other songs would work here? I suggest “Maniac” from the Flashdance soundtrack. Is Elton John’s “Goodbye English Rose” inappropriate? Prolly so.

I love that you decided to like to Buzzfeed instead of the previous post.

Funnily enough, I hadn’t seen Perry’s post when I put this up. Oh well. Retweaking posts!

This wins, but I couldn’t help but think that Chris and Thom bear a slight resemblance. So I’m gonna need to see Chris dance to Benny Hill.

This is the worst thing I could have watched after eating Soup Plantation. My gut hurts!

I love how this is the 5th Radiohead post on the front page right now. I for one welcome our new Radiohead overlords.

I know, right? Well, it’s just cuz the album came out today. No more for a while, unless Thom kills someone this weekend.

Can we get a “Guile’s Theme Goes With Everything” version of this ASAP!?

AWESOME! Thank you for that. Who knows what song will be next? I have a feeling we won’t have to wait long. Meanwhile; THIS is the funniest video I saw this week:

Try “Java” by Al Hirt.

I don’t think Thom and Chris look alike too much; I find Aaron Paul and Keir O’Donnell to both be slightly Hardwicky though. Thom is like a painfully thin Martin Short. That’s probably an oldass comparison.

Will someone put this to some speed metal? Time will tell.

Good Sir Hardwick, “Yorkety Sax” is the greatest blog post title in interwebulary history. The content is also perfect. You’ve won everything with it. Congratulations.

Thom Yorke is as much an adjective to his dancing as a pronoun to his name. Glad to see that his “Lotus Flower” put to good use.

Here ya go, Chris:

Well, here’s that “Guile’s Theme Goes with Everything” version I wanted so badly. It’s better than I could have ever imagined.
