lyricsA heart that's full up like A landfill A job that slowly kills you Bruises that won't heal I'll take a quiet life And no alarms and no surprises Silent No alarms and no surprises Such a pretty house and No alarms and no surprises |
NO SURPRISES (3:49)
available on: ok
computer, no
surprises, running
from demons ep
notes: played for the first time in amsterdam,
netherlands (dec. 1995) as "no surprises please"
(acoustic). It was the first song to be played at
the early sessions for OK Computer and eventually
the first song to be recorded for that album.
Jonny Greenwood: "No Surprises
was used to try our new equipment out. We thought
it wasn't good to save that recording. It still sounds
a bit "careful" and that suits the song.
The Glockenspiel is used for the recording of the
song".
