" 'Paranoid Android' is about the dullest fucking people on earth," said singer Yorke, referring to lyrics such as "Squealing Gucci little piggy," about a creepy coked-out woman he once spied at an L.A. bar. The sound was just as unnerving: a shape-shifting, three-part prog-rock suite. Spooky fact: It was recorded in actress Jane Seymour's fifteenth-century mansion, a house that Yorke was convinced was haunted.
