Last month, the band debuted a new song called “Colours Fly” during its set at the Primavera Sound festival. Today, Thom Yorke shared footage of the song on Twitter and confirmed that it wasn’t the only new one The Smile had in the works. “new one … work in progress … there are a few ..” he captioned the video.
