DJ Shadow, who collaborated with Thom Yorke as 1/2 of U.N.K.L.E. (‘Rabbit In Your Headlights’), was interviewed in the Financial Times:
“I’ve always been fascinated by music that makes everybody behave a certain way. For instance, I’ve noticed that when you’re driving with your friends, and a certain song comes on the radio, everybody gets silent and pensive, looking out the window. I started analysing what music made that happen. Certain people are able to do it; Radiohead create that true emotional urgency and grit.”
