It has become standard knowledge that I have a fanatic adoration for anything Thom Yorke touches. Be it Radiohead, his Atoms For Peace side project, or another solo endeavor, I'm there with open ears, ready to dance interpretively to whatever otherworldly tunes he brings to the table.
Recently I uncovered a hidden gem titled "This Mess We're In," featuring soulful songstress PJ Harvey and the legendary Thom Yorke. What seems like a duet made in indie heaven is just that and so much more. Here we have two Brits that compliment each other marvelously. Polly holds down the bass parts of the vocals while Thom takes care of the falsettos in his usual ghostlike demeanor, creating a story that is completely au fait; a song that captures the essence of love and hopelessness all wrapped up into four lucid minutes.
Altogether, "This Mess We're In" is the perfect amalgamate into the enigmatically beautiful world that Yorke and company repeatedly creates for their audiences. Enjoy.
