From Wikipedia
"No Surprises" is a song by the English rock band Radiohead, released as the fourth and final single from their third studio album, OK Computer (1997), in 1998. The singer, Thom Yorke, wrote "No Surprises" while Radiohead were on tour with R.E.M. in 1995. It features glockenspiel and a "childlike" sound inspired by the 1966 Beach Boys album Pet Sounds. Yorke described it as a "fucked-up nursery rhyme", with a gentle mood and harsh lyrics conveying dissatisfaction with social or political order. The music video, directed by Grant Gee, features Yorke wearing a helmet as it fills with water. It was inspired by science fiction, underwater escape acts, and the lyric "a job that slowly kills you", with Gee aiming to convey the feeling of "murderous seconds". "No Surprises" reached number four on the UK singles chart. In 2011, NME named it the 107th-best track of the preceding 15 years.
