There There

What better way to celebrate the release of the last Hobbit extended edition DVD today, in France (so if you don't hear much from me these days, you'll know what I'm busy doing) than reposting this Radiohead videoclip directed by Chris Hopewell in 2003 and awarded by MTV. The alternate title for this track from Hail To The Thief is "The Boney King Of Nowhere" in reference to the British children’s television show Bagpuss which Thom Thumb and his son used to watch. What more can I say other than stressing how much I love this song and how this is probably the only Radiohead video (except for "Karma Police") worth seeing.

Ey@el

In pitch dark,
I go walking in your landscape.
Broken branches
Trip me as I speak.

Just because you feel it
Doesn’t mean it’s there...
Just because you feel it
Doesn’t mean it’s there....

There’s always a siren
Singing you to shipwreck.
(Don’t reach out, don’t reach out)
Steer away from these rocks,
We’d be a walking disaster.
(Don’t reach out, don’t reach out)

Just because you feel it
Doesn’t mean it’s there...
(There’s someone on your shoulder)
Just because you feel it
Doesn’t mean it’s there...
(There’s someone on your shoulder)

There there

Why so green and lonely?
Heaven sent you to me.

We are accidents
Waiting waiting to happen.

We are accidents
Waiting waiting to happen.
