Idioteque

I don't know why I haven't looked up this song before now. Because of this song, along with companion videos based around 9/11 and other things of that nature, I have come to appreciate the Genius of Thom Yorke. Maybe his lazy eye has something to do with it. I don't know but Radiohead and their lyrics and songs are incredible.The lyrics to Idioteque are so thought provoking and unsettling. I mean it is astonishing to me. That whole album almost (Kid A) is some thing to bring you back to reality. I wish everybody would find their KID A and wake up or at least their Laurie Anderson "O Superman". Come to think of it both of them use electronic devices to show the alienation of people from each other, reality and issues. Electronic means more than I ever thought it could. I hope there will be more people that will show us that things stop functioning when we let anything but the organic or natural take over, or when we try to create everything and end up destroying the balance.



We're not scaremongering, This is really happening... Happening.

Mobiles quirking Mobiles chirping
Take the money and run Take the money and run Take the money
