this is what they were talking about when they invented the word “groovy“
In accordance with the raincoaster blog’s policy of culture jamming, petard-hoisting those who don’t stand by their own words, and doing whatever the hell we want, we are happy to repost here Thom Yorke’s anti-Tony Blair rant, which was posted on Radiohead’s blog and almost immediately taken down.
We are all about being on the record here. So, for the record, we stole this report from Sploid!
“I’ve had enough of this,” the songwriter wrote on Radiohead‘s blog. “Our government’s sitting on the fence with the U.S. while World War 3 appears to be breaking out in Lebanon and Northern Israel. We must throw Tony Blair out of office NOW. He does not represent the views of British people. He does not represent the views of his foreign office and officials.”
Yorke added that Blair “cares far too much about his relationship with Bush and Murdoch.”
…
“This man is not fit to be our prime minister,” Yorke concluded. “It’s a nice sunny day. Come on, let’s do it. You know it makes sense. A vote of no confidence. Or something. Anything.”But the call to action mysteriously vanished from Radiohead.com on Thursday. Nobody in the band will explain what happened to the message, so Radiohead fans and the music press are left to wonder if certain sinister forces are at work.
We’re the last of the superheros. When the world is really screwed up, who do they count on to settle things down?
We’ll be getting the call from Beirut any day now.
Let no nation claim a monopoly on jingoistic superheroism. Right, Robin?
