i'm not sure if this has been discussed before, so, in favour of complaining about the lack of a 'search' feature, i will assume that this has not been discussed before. Radioheads track, 2+2=5 from the album Hail to the Theif is a blatent forgery of the event in George Orwell's novel, Nineteen Eighty-Four, in which the main character keeps telling himself to remember that in reality 2+2=4. He does this because he believes that if the government want to, they can make him believe 2+2=5. Thom Yorke you've been sprung, now give the name back please. |

in some interview the interviewer asked if it was a reference to 1984 and thom yorke just had a tantrum and stormed off!! he did the same thing in another interview when asked where the name Hail to the Thief came from and again when the interviewer asked what he's been listening to lately |
