Paul McCartney revealed that Yorke refused to do a duet with him during a British television show T4.
The former Beatle explained that he asked Thom Yorke to do a duet with him, after his daughter, who was preparing an album put them in contact with one another. However, Yorke refused the offer justifying that he was happy working on his own material.
However, Yorke has had other experiences doing duets with artists such as P.J. Harvey and Björk.
