Emily Thompson: And then you didn't do it. That was kind of like the old blog, but I decided not to do that, but I mean, I had the whole thing just lined up and ready to go and then I didn't launch it. Well, I was gonna launch a new blog whenever I moved into this house. Emily Thompson: I feel like maybe an interior design one, like kind of like your old blog, maybe. Emily Thompson: A very long time coming and the ones I can remember, I mean, there's, I feel like there's always been a makeup one floating around.

We’re just riding on those things – we’re not really in control of them.Emily Thompson: Welcome to Being Boss, a podcast for creatives, business owners and entrepreneurs who want to take control of their work and live life on their own terms.
Speaking about how the incident inspired the OK Computer track, the singer once said: “Has an airbag saved my life? Nah… but I tell you something, every time you have a near accident, instead of just sighing and carrying on, you should pull over, get out of the car and run down the street screaming ‘I’m BACK! I’m ALIVE! My life has started again today!’ In fact, you should do that every time you get out of a car. The song was written about a car crash Thom experienced with his girlfriend in 1987. This sense that things could fall apart at any moment is evident in the song’s lyrics as well. The fragility of his voice, always on the cusp of all-out falsetto, seems both at war with Greenwood’s guitar and yet floats well above it. With all that going on, it’s amazing that Yorke’s are noticeable at all. And we just did three takes of him just like doing all sorts of shit to it and we put it all in.” And a day and a half later, they were like, ‘OK, we’ve got it.’ But it wasn’t very exciting sounding, so I ran it through Jonny’s pedal board. What happened was, I told Thom and Phil to sit there for a couple of hours and create a drum loop.
However, Phillip Selway’s super-compressed drums suggest a burgeoning desire to move into the more glitchy experimental territory: “The drum loop on that song was inspired by DJ Shadow,” Radiohead’s producer Nigel Godrich told Rolling Stone. Jonny Greenwood’s opening guitar riff in ‘Airbag’ roots the track in the ’90s grunge pool of The Bends.
