Trivia
Interesting facts about Scatterbrain. By Songfacts.
Like "2+2=5," this song was inspired by Thom Yorke's compulsive tracking of BBC Radio 4 news bulletins. This track was particularly inspired by his habit of walking in the countryside with a portable radio.
According to Q magazine April 2008, the lyric about "Yesterday's headlines blown by the wind" was derived from a passage in Thomas Pynchon's 1963 novel V, about the search for a mysterious vanished woman."
