Radiohead – Electioneering Lyrics 14 years ago
The chorus in this line is brilliant, and ties in with the mention of voodoo economics. “I move forwards, you move backwards, and somewhere we will meet”. Sound familiar? “Trust me, give your money to the rich to propel them forwards into unprecedented amounts of wealth and power, you guys can fall behind into poverty and powerlessness, and..umm....uhh, yeah we’ll meet somewhere in the middle...ha ha!” As relevant today as ever. Anyone know what Thom says after "voodoo ecomonics", though? It sounds something like "I know" or "I don't" twice, but I can't make it out and it's never included in the lyrics when looking them up.

This song is about AIDS and gay sex.

Radiohead – Like Spinning Plates Lyrics 18 years ago
The song was not sung backwards for the studio version. He learned the song backwards, recorded it, and listened to it in reverse and learned to sing it that way. So it sounds like it was recorded backwards, but it really wasn't.

Anyway, I think this is one of the less cryptic Radiohead songs. It's about people in the real world dealing with real suffering while the ones in power just make themselves look good with "pretty speaches" all the while doing nothing.
