by Ciaran Thompson

Singer/songwriter Regina Spektor has released a cover of Radiohead’s OK Computer track “No Surprises.” It is available exclusively through iTunes, however it is currently streaming on Spektor’s website now. And if you are a fan of either Radiohead or Spektor or soothing vocals and piano melodies you music quit what you’re currently listening to at once and hear it. All the proceeds from purchasing the song will benefit Doctors Without Borders’ Emergency Relief Fund.

She first covered the song during a benefit concert in New York City for the recent earthquake disasters. “The show at Irving Plaza raised a lot of money but this gives a chance for more people to participate and donate to victims of earthquakes in Haiti and Chile,” Spektor said on her site. Speaking about Radiohead themselves she said, “i LOVE them, and thank them for donating their proceeds too!!! they are the best!”

Spektor released her latest album Far, last year. She is currently touring in Europe.
