Watch Radiohead’s New “I Promise” Video

Radiohead have released a video for the studio version of “I Promise,” 21 years after it was recorded. Watch it below. In the clip, directed by Michal Marczak, we observe the faces of several people on a melancholy, late-night bus ride. In the end, it turns out all was not as it seemed. The song, which appears on the forthcoming OK Computer reissue OKNOTOK, debuted on streaming services yesterday evening. Two more studio recordings, of “Man of War” and “Lift,” await release having been unearthed from the OK Computer tapes. The reissue comes out June 23. Last night, BBC Radio 6 host Steve Lamacq premiered “I Promise,” saying he’d heard the band were “especially pleased to find [the song] in the vaults, because they thought it’d been lost over the years.”

In March, Pitchfork celebrated the 20th anniversary of OK Computer with a series of features. Revisit them here.
