I'm doing a music degree and I'm in the middle of writing an essay on Radiohead's Ok Computer album. I need to beef up the word count a little, so has anyone got any interesting little facts about Ok Computer/Radiohead in general that I can stick into my essay and make me sound cleverer?

Failing that, I could just give up on my essay and discuss how great Radiohead are...

One of the best albums of the 90s.

This should be very helpful:

Hmm, lets see...well, "Exit Music For A Film" was the best part of that god-awful Romeo And Juliet movie starring Leonardo Di Caprio.

That should be a few extra pages at least.

The track 'Lucky' was origionally recorded for a charity album (I forget it's name but it has a cover of 'Rain Drops Keep falling on my Head' by the Manic Street Preachers). The concept of the album was that each contributing band had one day in a studio to record (and write) a track. Radiohead liked their composition so much that they stuck it into their forthcomming album (ok computer).

when i need to beef up word count i make long pointless sentences that somehow tie into my topic, and make sure plenty of big words are used in them
