Radio Ephemera: Cue the Sun

Yesterday on my way in, there were few signs in my area of the weekend’s floods, although I never made it to church and we had trouble finding a way through flooded Des Plaines intersections after leaving Steve’s house.

WXRT was playing “Here Comes The Sun.” Obvious choice.

Then there was a short clip from The Truman Show. The godlike Director said,

“Cue the Sun.”

And then they played Radiohead; I think it was “climbing the walls House Of Cards.” An unsettling, crashing, creepily apocalyptic choice, just as I crossed the bridge over Salt Creek, which flooded farther to the south. Because the song said, “your infrastructure will collapse.”

I think I’ll have to get more Radiohead in iTunes. Creepy good stuff.
