Thom Yorke: "The Present Tense" (Live at Latitude Festival) (Video)

9:13 a.m. · July 20, 2009 · by Nick Neyland

Thom Yorke showed up at the Latitude Festival in England at the weekend, where he played a set of songs mostly culled from his solo album, The Eraser. He also included a few Radiogead songs in the set (“Weird Fishes/Arpeggi” and “True Love Waits”) and proved to be one of the biggest attractions of the weekend.

Yorke debuted a new song at Latitude, apparently titled “The Present Tense,” and made a joke about it appearing on YouTube. Naturally, that has happened, and here is the fan-shot clip, which shows Yorke plucking away at a guitar and delivering a mournful ballad that isn’t a million miles away from his other work.
