"True
Love Waits" is one of the most requested live songs that Radiohead
has in their catalog. The band have occasionally performed this
song prior to the release of OK Computer and during the Kid A and
Amnesiac tours but have yet to record it in a studio. May be called
'Mortigi Tempo' or 'Awaits'.
When asked about the meaning of the line "I'll dress like your niece,"
Thom had this to say: "the difference between young and old when
people start to dress sensible and act their age. this person is
offering not to do that to keep the other. alles klarr?"
According to Thom, the line "On lollipops and crisps"
is from an article he read: "I read an article about a child
who was between 5-8 yrs old who was left on his/her own for a week
in a house when his parents left on hoilday and he lived on lollipops
on crisps. True"
"True
Love Waits" was finally made available to fans who hadn't already
downloaded a bootlegged mp3 of the song in 11/2001, when they released
the I Might Be Wrong - Live Recordings live album.
