Radiohead To Debut Song For New Album At 'James Bond' Movie As Thom Yorke Works On Musical

While there has been no release date announcement to Radiohead new album, there have been reports claiming that the band is actually going to debut a new song to the upcoming "James Bond" movie.

According to NME there was a customer from Middlesex who tried to put a £15,000 bet on Radiohead for the contest asking who recorded the new song for the "James Bond" movie called "Spectre."

"The first gamble of the day was Ellie Goulding and punters were backing her as if she already had the gig but just as we were thinking of pulling the plug we had a load of bets for Radiohead including one customer who asked to place a £15,000 bet on the band at 10/1," said William Hill spokesman of Rupert Adams.

"There seem to be all kinds of rumors and the plot has had more twists and turns than a classic Bond tale, but surely nobody risks £15,000 on a hunch."

And because of the said event, The Guardian reported that the Bond theme song betting has now been suspended.

Radiohead on the other hand, has yet to comment about the said issue, instead guitarist Johnny Greenwood has shared details about the band's new album and what songs should fans expect from it.

In his interview with Dutch website 3voor12, Greenwood revealed that the English rock band is now working together as the new album progress.

He added that a new song titled "Lift" will be included in the album. The song is actually an old track they've done back in 1996.

"This afternoon, Thom and I will work on a song we started yesterday, and see what it will lead to," he explained.

"What people don't know is that there's a very old song on each album, like 'Nude' on In Rainbows. We never found the right arrangement for that, until then. 'Lift' is just like that. When the idea is right, it stays right. It doesn't really matter in which form."

In line with this, NME reported that Radiohead producer Neil Godrich already confirmed that the band is set to release the new album come December this year.

The said composition is for Harold Pinter's "Old Times," which due to debut the American Airlines Theater in New York in October.
