Since you asked

with her killer graces
and her secret places
that no boy can fill
with her hands on her hips
oh, and that smile on her lips
because she knows that it kills me
with her soft french cream
standing in that doorway
like a dream
I wish she'd just leave me alone
but french cream won't soften
them boots and french kisses
will not break that heart of stone
with her long hair falling
and her eyes that shine
like the midnight sun
she's the one
that thunder in your heart at night
when you're kneeling in the dark
it says
you're never gonna leave her
but there's this angel in her eyes
that tells such desperate lies
and all you wanna do is believe her
and tonight you'll try
just one more time
to leave it all behind
and to break on through
oh, she can take you
but if she wants to break you
she's gonna find out
that ain't so easy to do
and no matter where
you sleep tonight
or how far you run
she's the one
with just one kiss
she'll fill these long summer nights
with her tenderness
that secret pact you made
back when her love could save you
from the bitterness
she's the one

Meg Marco of Consumerist.com sums up this weekend’s biggest popular-music story thusly:

Radiohead announced pre-sales for their record-label-free new album. The twist? You pay what you want. We predict that they will make a hilarious amount of money.

I agree. Hilarious is an excellent word for it. Take me, for example. I don’t want to be a douchebag and pay one penny for this record, though I could. For years I’ve been hearing about how Radiohead is the best band ever, but I’ve never made the effort to get into them, kind of fearing they’ll be less like Foo Fighters and more like Coldplay, and I need more of the former and less of the latter, and new music frightens me. New free music is a complete crapshoot; for every Jodi Winterton or Jim Vick.Combo you find on Indy.tv (they’re apparently rebranding themselves now, but they were a Great Thing), there are a hundred mediocre bands to wade through. Letting me download your album, legally, as DRM-free MP3s, for a price of my choosing, and standing out from the crowd in the first place, is exactly how you get me to listen to your band. I’m thinking … six bucks?

This is what the order form looks like.
