About This Track
“The Tourist” was written by Jonny, who, explains Thom, was “in a beautiful square in France on a sunny day, and watching all these American tourists being wheeled around, frantically trying to see everything in 10 minutes.” Jonny was shocked at how these people could be in a place so beautiful and so special and not realize it because they weren’t taking the time to just stop and look around.
Jonny : “Thom didn’t play a thing, he just listened. It’s quite nervy, with a lot of space. It sounds like the last song on an album.”

OK Computer is just such beautiful madness. It's definitely a modern "Dark Side of the Moon" - there are times when Thom is singing that it sounds as if he might just explode into a screaming flailing mess of pent up emotion. It's heartbreakingly beautiful at times, other times it just makes your brain feel like it's had a really good workout. :)

Jonny's solo followed by Thom's wail fading back into the song is one of my fav. pieces of music ever.
