Indie-pop singer-songwriter Madi Diaz garnered early praise for her 2011 EP Far From Things That We Know. On January 24th, Diaz is set to release her first full-length album, Plastic Moon, with help from renowned producer John Alagia (John Mayer, The Dave Matthews Band).

"I had been living in Nashville writing for a few months, and I think I was just tired of digging for this deep, painful, pining love story," Diaz says. "Sometimes you just want to hear a make out story."

“Everything in Its Right Place”

Radiohead | 2000

Thom Yorke hit rock bottom the moment he walked offstage after a 1997 concert in Birmingham, England, which initially left him unable to speak and later led him to write the eerie, discombobulated “Everything.” “Lots of people say that song is gibberish,” he told Rolling Stone. “It’s not. It’s totally about that” – the mute paralysis that had swept over Yorke after the Birmingham show, which stayed with him through the simultaneous recording of Kid A and Amnesiac. Quoting the song’s repeated line, “Yesterday I woke up sucking a lemon,” Yorke twisted his face into a ferocious grimace, explaining, “That’s the face I had for three years.”
