Two -heads are better than one. Also, we don't like to make too much of covers, but listening to Cee-Lo tackle Mr. Yorke's high notes on "Reckoner," and thinking also of Yorke's own soul turn on "Nude," we're not entirely sure that Radiohead didn't make a better R&B album than Danger Mouse this time around.
