        I think Radiohead have always been a bit offhand about anyone
buying their stuff at all, but I think of `Creep' and I guess they
probably weren't *upset* (at least, not any more than usual) by its
selling well. Floyd only gave up on the singles chart after resolutely
failing to make ay kind of dent in it 1967 to 1970 :-) Yours,
                                                              Jon (hoping
for good things with this HW release; fearing the single will be late)
