Radiohead playing 'In Limbo,'
the seventh track on their
album Kid A, live. The song
has interlocking guitar parts
and a complex time signature.
The primary time signature is
18/8, with the contrast
section in 12/8 time. The
guitar part plays triplets,
while the percussion has a
16th note feel, resulting in a
complex overlapping of 3
against 4, a type of
polyrhythm. Despite being one
of the few guitar-driven songs
on the album, it is considered
one of the more unusual.The
lyrics 'Lundy, Fastnet, Irish
Sea / I've got a message I
can't read' reference the
British shipping forecast. The
title may be a reference to
the spiritual concept of
Limbo, specifically in the
writings of Dante.'In Limbo'
is sometimes performed live,
and features singer Thom Yorke
(and sometimes producer Nigel
Godrich) playing
tambourine.-Information taken
