Radiohead ‘Harry Patch’

I realize that at first glance you might think Radiohead are showing a rather juvenile sense of humor with this song title, but no, that would be you. Harry Patch was the last surviving British veteran who actually fought in the trenches of WWI, and recently passed away at the ripe old age of 111. Radiohead have recently penned a lovely little tune in memoriam. You can hear it at Waste, where it is available for £1. All proceeds go to the Royal British Legion, a charity organization that looks after the needs of current or former members of the B.A.F. and their families. With that in mind, no, I’m not going to post it. As far as I’m concerned, anyone that does is looking for some serious karmic retribution.
