Street Spirit (Fade Out) - Radiohead (cover)

Possibly the most haunting song I’ve ever heard. Definitely one of Radiohead’s finest. I had a version of this up before but I’ve been meaning to replace it as I wasn’t happy with it. From Wikipedia: ““Street Spirit (Fade Out)“ is a song by the English rock band Radiohead, released on their second studio album, The Bends (1995). It was released as a single on 22 January 1996 and reached number five on the UK Singles Chart, Radiohead’s highest position up to that point. Radiohead considered it a breakthrough in their songwriting. It was accompanied by a music video by Jonathan Glazer, and has been covered by acts including Peter Gabriel and the Darkness.” Lyrics: Rows of houses all bearing down on me I can feel their blue hands touching me All these things into position All these things we’ll one day swallow whole And fade out again and fade out This machine will, will not communicate These thoughts and the strain I am under Be a world
