Earlier this year ateaseweb.com posted a full band version of Follow me Around. This recording was done by Pawel Osmolski, who used Thom Yorke's vocals and acoustic guitar and added other instruments himself. The track was immensely popular and even made it to the top of Q Magazine's playlist.

Now, Pawel gave another unreleased Radiohead track the same treatment: 'Big Ideas (don't get any)' aka 'Nude'. The song, originally composed way back in 1996 during the OK Computer era is one of the fan's favourites. Pawel started off with a mix from a live gig recording at Akasaka Blitz, Tokyo (23-01-1998). Pawel: "It was just Thom and his acoustic, so it made things easy in the sense that I could work with it in the same way that I approached Follow Me Around."

Pawel has recorded these mixes are purely for the fans to enjoy: "Seeing as it seems unlikely that Radiohead would put these tracks out, I took the initiative to try and recreate them from live performances. Follow Me Around started off as just an experiment, so I was really surprised with the reaction it got. It was because of all the encouragement and support from you people that I decided to carry on making more mixes."

this is really quite good, and i encourage people (especially Radiohead fans

) to check it out

Hey, thanks for the heads up. I've always loved this song, but the live copy I had was poor quality.
I kinda like what Pawel did here but there are some moments where I cringed since he seemed to do too much instead of letting Thom's voice carry the song.
