About This Track

“Planet Xerox” was this song’s original title, but because Xerox was a copyrighted name, Radiohead changed it to “Planet Telex.” The only song written in the studio during the Bends sessions, it was recorded one night when the band returned to the studio after drinking a lot of wine. Thom did the vocals lying down, completely drunk. This is the most frequently remixed song in Radiohead’s roster.

    Thom Yorke was drunken when he sang this and rolled on the floor. No joke and I find this circumstance badass.

    Dr_Johnny_Skinz: You do realize that At The Drive In and The Mars Volta broke into the mainstream way after Radiohead, dont you? There's no way that Thom Yorke had heard Cedric's singing- this song came out in 1995.

    He's trying too hard to sound like Cedric Bixler-Zavala in this one.
