Song · In Rainbows era (2007–09)
Come to Your Senses
A country-leaning song with Jonny Greenwood on banjo, heard once at a Berkeley soundcheck in 2006.
24 jun 2006
the greek theatre
The band soundchecked it at the Greek Theatre in Berkeley on 24 June 2006, the second of their two nights there, with Jonny Greenwood on banjo. Nobody knew the title at the time. Yorke's chat before it suggests they had worked on the song before and that this was the first time he played the others his new words. It was never played in a show. A fuller bootleg recording surfaced in 2018.
What it sounds like is unusual for this band: country-folk, plainly played, with two banjo breaks and Yorke asking the sound man for more cowbell.
