Was Thom Yorke a time traveler?
>No, Thom Yorke is not a time traveler. He is an English musician, known for being the vocalist and main songwriter of the band Radiohead.
>While some fans playfully suggest that Thom Yorke is a time traveler due to the prescient nature of his lyrics and the way his music resonates with current events, there is no evidence to support this notion.
>The idea of time travel is a concept often explored in science fiction and has been a subject of theoretical discussion in physics, but it is not a scientifically proven reality. Thom Yorke's music may touch on themes of time, but that doesn't mean he has the ability to travel through it.

But what about the lyrics on Airbag? He's telling us right in the song. Wake up people.

>While it's fun to explore different interpretations of lyrics, the lyrics of "Airbag" are not widely considered to be evidence of Thom Yorke being a time traveler. Song lyrics are often metaphorical and open to individual interpretation.
Here's why the time travel interpretation, while creative, might not be the most common or intended reading:
>Near-Death Experience & Rebirth: A dominant interpretation centers around a near-death experience, with the airbag serving as a symbol of being saved and feeling reborn or given a second chance at life. The lyrics about being "born again" could refer to a psychological or spiritual rebirth after a traumatic event like a car crash. Thom Yorke himself has stated that the song was inspired by his experience surviving a car crash, which led him to feel "a thousand times more alive" according to Fandom radiohead.fandom.com.
>Social Commentary: "Airbag" is the opening track on the album OK Computer, which is well-known for its themes of anxiety, alienation, and social commentary, particularly regarding the impact of technology on modern life. The car crash in the song can be seen as a symbol of the dangers and anxieties associated with the fast-paced, technologically driven world depicted in the album.
>"Interstellar burst" and "save the universe": These lines could represent a newfound sense of purpose or invincibility after surviving a traumatic experience, rather than literal time travel or a mission to save the universe.
>While OK Computer is praised for its prescience regarding the mood and challenges of the 21st century, attributing this to time travel is a fantastical interpretation. Yorke's insights are likely a result of his keen observations and artistic vision, not literal journeys through time.
