* Knowing how [[Broken Base]]-inducing and [[Something Completely Different]] ''Kid A'' is, and how it wasn't really promoted with a media blitz or any singles or whatever, you can't help but feel kind of awesome when it ended up at #1 in the USA for a week. Thom himself said "We were [[The Beatles]]... for a week."
* Music video example: the gasping defiance on Yorke's face during the final chorus of the video for "No Surprises."

* A rather infamous one involving [[Prince]], who is rather outspoken for his views regarding [[Digital Piracy Is Evil|videos of his live performances being put up on YouTube.]] He decided to cover Creep at a live show one evening, and someone put it up online, only for that person to be served a cease and desist letter by Prince's lawyers. Cue Thom Yorke stepping in with, "Put it back up, Creep is ''our'' song." Never has [[Irony]] been so sweet.
