        <content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Thom Yorke</strong> blessed fans with a surprise solo release on Wednesday night.</p><p>Radiohead&#8217;s enigmatic frontman debuted his new track, titled &#8220;Plasticine Figures,&#8221; for viewers of the &#8220;The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,&#8221; which is being produced through virtual video chats under <strong>coronavirus lockdown</strong>, then edited and aired later in the evening. A number of musical acts, including Chvrches and Meghan Trainor, have already delivered low-key performances for the show&#8217;s &#8220;At Home Edition&#8221; since it began broadcasting from Fallon&#8217;s house in late March.</p><p>Yorke performed his song live via remote video call from his home.</p><p>The haunting, three-minute tune was performed solo, with Yorke singing at his piano in a dimly lit room. Followers on Twitter called the song &#8220;beautiful&#8221; and a &#8220;banger.&#8221; Many others couldn&#8217;t help but point out the fact that the musician appeared to be dispatching &#8220;From The Basement&#8221; — a reference to longtime Radiohead producer Nigel Godrich&#8217;s TV and podcast series by the same name, which featured the whole band for a 2008 live video of their 2007 album &#8220;In Rainbows.&#8221;</p><p>&#8220;More you in the basement, please,&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/ehhLayan/status/1255807082344955906?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">pleaded one fan on Twitter</a>.</p><p>&#8220;So you&#8217;re saying there might be another live from the basement performance coming soon?&#8221; <a href="https://twitter.com/Moegonzalez/status/1255814381759234048?s=20" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">asked another</a>.</p><p>Hours before he was scheduled to appear on &#8220;The Tonight Show,&#8221; the singer <a href="https://twitter.com/thomyorke/status/1255590751741906945" target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer">tweeted an image</a> of a sheet of lyrics, with plenty of markup, to show fans the final number was still being workshopped ahead of the show.</p><div class="embed-wrapper twitter"><div class="embed-twitter"><blockquote class="twitter-tweet" data-width="550" data-dnt="true"><p lang="und" dir="ltr">.<a href="https://twitter.com/FallonTonight?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">@FallonTonight</a> <strong>pic.twitter.com/2MFvIoib67</strong></p><p>&mdash; Thom Yorke (@thomyorke) <a href="https://twitter.com/thomyorke/status/1255590751741906945?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw">April 29, 2020</a></p></blockquote><p><script async src="https://platform.twitter.com/widgets.js" charset="utf-8"></script></div></div><p>Yorke has not announced any plans for a follow-up to his 2019 album &#8220;Anima.&#8221; Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic, the artist had been gearing-up for his &#8220;Tomorrow’s Modern Boxes&#8221; tour, which was set to kick-off in Fairfax, Virginia, on March 28. The outbreak has triggered the cancellation of all show dates for the foreseeable future.</p><p>However, he has been on a song-drop spree during 2020, having recently shared four rare tracks — including his contribution to the &#8220;The Twilight Saga: New Moon&#8221; (2009) soundtrack, the song &#8220;Hearing Damage,&#8221; as well as B-sides from his side supergroup Atoms for Peace, &#8220;What the Eyeballs Did,&#8221; &#8220;S.A.D.&#8221; and &#8220;Magic Beanz.&#8221;</p><p>The band Radiohead, for their part, have also kept fans busy, <strong>sharing archival footage on YouTube</strong> from legendary gigs throughout their career. Last week, guitarist Ed O&#8217;Brien also <strong>revealed to British tabloid The Sun</strong> that the band had &#8220;been talking about live dates next year&#8221; — plans which now appear to be on hold due to the COVID-19 outbreak.</p><p>Said O&#8217;Brien, &#8220;What happens next with Radiohead? I don’t know.&#8221;</p>]]></content:encoded>
