"Planet Telex" is a song written by Radiohead and is the opening track of their 1995 album The Bends. It was released as a double A-side single with "High and Dry", although receiving far less airplay. Originally known as "Planet Xerox", the title was changed to its current name since Xerox is a trademark.This is the only song written during The Bends recording session (i.e. not beforehand).
