Dear Radiohead... I know I am one in 12 million (and more, I am sure) of your fans, but I am the only one that is requesting to use your lumbering "Give Up the Ghost" from the King of Limbs album for my short Film. Right now Warner-Chappell is in talks with your manager, and I am really hopeful that she and they approve my request for Licencing, but I wanted to reach out and let you know that I'd really love to get your input on the film, if you have the time or inclination. Below is the email that I sent to Melanie@W.a.s.t.e. back in July: 

Dear Radiohead,

Your music has always been, for me, darkly attractive and melodically 
fulfilling. In your last album, King of Limbs, I found "Give Up the Ghost" not 
only haunting and telling in it's lumbering cadence, but my mind and heart 
racing from scene to scene as a short film. This initial revelation has 
persisted with me, and I am now at a point in my life where I can make the film that I have envisioned to run alongside "Give Up the Ghost." 

I am a small producer/storyteller operating on a tiny budget, but wanted to ask if you would allow me to use your song, uncut and unmodified from the 
studio release in my short film. I will be more than happy to give you any 
credit that you want in the film, in the titles or credits, or both, if that 
suits you. I hope that you wont want any monetary compensation for it's use, but completely understand (as an artist) if you do because I understand that this is your livelihood as well. This will be a labor of love, that I will be
submitting to a small local film festival in Sandpoint, Idaho in the States. I 
hope that this message finds you in good spirits, and to hear back from you 
soon.

peace,
Rob

This fucked vision might spare us one day, my darling,

But for now, we're delusional

The sun rises and sets in the same place every day

Yet we search for the light

Glaciers would melt before I gave a prayer

Beliefs of an old mind are desperate

The plants bloom every spring

Yet we search for life

I broke my hand on a wall yesterday

And the wall felt nothing

Cleaning brick dust from our knuckles

We're slaves to the time

When did pregnancy become a pastime activity?

A penguin dies from heat stroke

Destructive particles of dust, like ants with guns

Yet we're born into the mess

是日工作:審視自己.

時間:2014年12月18日12:00a.m.

目的:拯救並治療傷者陳皓星.

注意事項:時間綫並不存在,來自遠方未來的看官將之視為故事閱讀即可.

病徵:缺乏正常人應有的自信,難以面對現實世界,極度孤僻,常常為了他人意願而委屈自己.自尊太高導致自信太低?(亦有可能是相反),集中力太差((毒品所導致(有待化驗報告證實)).

表層黑暗面審視完畢.

2014年12月18日1:04a.m.

開始引入自然光,By some miracle在耳畔響起.

自然光色譜:對音樂有相當程度的興趣,繼而因音樂的相關美術產業如繪畫,舞蹈等產生興趣,再因此發現"美"的表現確能慰藉心靈,解孤寂之苦.

Pause.

The very first part of my salvation:

1.審視塞子附近的結冰

2.用熱風機,冰鑿瓦解結冰的結構.

上主保佑,但願我有能力堅持下去.

It's interesting to look back the words i've left here before.Too bad i didn't come back as a 'new' me,or even worse,i came back as an abomination that i see my self as.

Gotta let go of the grudge.

Once upon a time...

there were two lovers, soul mates who loved each other with immense passion, sincerety and purity. Their love was undying, ever-lasting and eternal, unshaken by the shackles of time and space.

One gave everything to the other, everything she had, everything she ever made and produced, and He loved her so much that he accepted each gift and held it forever.

Their names were Life and Death.

I put a loy of time, love and effort into the four tunes I've created on my Gramophone Operator page. Please take a few minutes to check them out - three of them are Radiohead remixes. I'd love to hear what people think of them...  https://www.youtube.com/user/LeonTunes

The concert AFP did in Austin last year was miraculous. This concert in Phillie is lovely and well worth watching, too. Thank you for putting it up. Try to take a little time to watch the Harrowdown Hill version done in the Austin, if you can. Goosebumps, seriously. Have a great week. From Nora
