Thom Yorke once said that after touring for OK Computer he was at a local pub and some guy stopped him and said, "No Surprises" is the most miserable song he'd ever heard and why had he written it? At the time Thom said he had to concur with that assessment of the song. I can't remember what interview this was from but I used to have the recording of it where he introduces the song this way.
