Naaah nah nah nanah nanaaah: Yorke spurns McCartney
TheBoyDeadly by TheBoyDeadly November 13th, 2007

Radiohead’s Thom Yorke recently spurned the advances of lax-jowled former Beatle Paul McCartney.

Sniffing dollar-eyed around a potential duet, McCartney was told “na” by Yorke, who now only wishes to work either with his band or alone.

Speaking to Channel 4’s mind-melting magazine show T4, McCartney revealed that: "my daughter was putting an album together and she put us in touch. I asked Thom to do a duet, but he said he couldn't because he only felt happy working on his own and Radiohead's material."

Yorke has previously worked with PJ Harvey, Bjork, Sparklehorse, UNKLE, Michael Stipe, *Bernard Butler, David Gray, Modeselektor, *Beck, Drugstore and the entire cast of Band Aid 20**.
