June 2 (UPI) -- Radiohead has released a new music video for previously unreleased track "I Promise" from their upcoming re-release of 1997 album, OK Computer now titled OKNOTOK. The clip, released Friday, features a robotic head without a body observing people and the surrounding city as he passes by on a bus.

The animatronic head then seemingly dreams of a crying woman after falling asleep. As the figure wakes up, he begins to weep as morning arrives.
"I won't run away no more, I promise," frontman Thom Yorke sings. "Even when I get bored, I promise. Even when you lock me out, I promise. I say my prayers every night, I promise."
Recently, Yorke spoke with Rolling Stone about OK Computer and how the album was inspired by how he felt while on tour for their second album The Bends.
"The paranoia I felt at the time was much more related to how people related to each other," he said. "But I was using the terminology of technology to express it. Everything I was writing was actually a way of trying to reconnect with other human beings when you're always in transit. That's what I had to write about because that's what was going on, which in itself instilled a kind of loneliness and disconnection."
