    Radiohead's Thom Yorke Has Recorded Song About Dr David Kelly's Suicide

    Radiohead's Thom Yorke has said a track on his solo album about the suicide of scientist Dr David Kelly is "the most angry song I've ever written."

    The song is entitled 'Harrowdown Hill' - named after the location in Oxfordshire where Dr Kelly's body was found back in 2003, reports bbc.co.uk.

    Dr Kelly had been identified as the source of a controversial BBC story about whether Iraq had weapons of mass destruction. Yorke didn't want to disclose more information about the song, saying: "It's not for me or for any of us to dig any of this up. So it's a bit of an uncomfortable thing."

    Yorke has already insisted that his solo album - entitled 'The Eraser' - does not mean that Radiohead are splitting up.
