“Oh Jeremy Corbyn!” rings out during Radiohead set at Glastonbury

The greatest band of all time?

Tony Cuddihy

One of the best moments of an incredible Glastonbury performance from Radiohead.

Thom Yorke joins in with the crowd singing “Oh Jeremy Corbyn” at Radiohead’s already legendary performance at Glastonbury on Friday night.

The chant in honour of the leader of the Labour Party – to the tune of Seven Nation Army by The White Stripes – has been ubiquitous throughout the festival.

As the noise from the crowd swells, Yorke joins in.

Yorke also used his opportunity to tell Theresa May to “shut the door on your way out” while mocking her use of the slogan ‘strong and stable’ during ‘Myxomatosis’.

The band’s masterful 25-song set featured a string of classics from the recently re-released OK Computer, although Radiohead’s entire back catalogue was well represented throughout.

They opened with ‘Daydreaming’ from the recent A Moon Shaped Pool – the moment Jonny Greenwood’s piano kicks in will take your breath away – and it only got better from there.
