Single info:
Having debuted Black Book at the Meltdown festival, Blur abandoned a session with producer Bill Laswell to record the song with Chris Potter in August 2000. Returning to the studio alone on August 23rd, they produced Music Is My Radar out of thin air, electing to release this instead.

The video features a fictional TV show called the James Brett Variety Hour. Having apparently just interviewed the band, the host invites us to join him after the break when he will be interviewing "Steve Lately about his new play". Music Is My Radar then plays, with male and female dancers entertaining the band.
