the things that blow my mind...the new radiohead album and videotape

Videotape

When I'm at the pearly gates
This will be on my videotape, my videotape
Mephistopheles is just beneath
and he's reaching up to grab me

This is one for the good days
and i have it all here
In red, blue, green
Red, blue, green

You are my center
When i spin away
Out of control on videotape
On videotape
On videotape
On videotape

This is my way of saying goodbye
Because I can't do it face to face
I'm talking to you after it's too late
From my videotape

No matter what happens now
You shouldn't be afraid
Because I know today has been the most perfect day I've ever seen.



In my own sick, wierd and not exactly literal mind, i keep thinking of the victims of kevorkian making those videos, and while i totally disagree with assisted suicide, i think it is a beautiful song with haunting imagery. Radiohead is one of my favorite bands ever and i cannot tie this directly to disability rights, i can at least say it will be music for the daily revolution. Best album of 2007...without a doubt.

check it out at the official site.
