At a show in Israel on July 9, 2000, Radiohead frontman Thom Yorke said: "This is a song about forgetting who you are, em, or anything about yourself, and then waking you up, one day, and looking yourself in the mirror, and remembering... and freaking out."
Thom Yorke recorded this song into a mini-disc player, but lost the song and forgot about it when the mini-disc got zapped in a lightning storm. Five months later, he woke up after a long flight and remembered the song.
Two different versions were recorded. One version appears on Kid A, the other ("Morning Bell/Amnesiac") appears on Amnesiac. Both albums were recorded simultaneously, but Kid A was released first.
