  • 'Fucking Hipster' - quote of the millennium (below)

  • Radiohead just got raped out pf another 5 grammys.  How many does that make it?? I agree with his view on their career. They didn't deserve to loose for this album.

  • This is really great satire: people need to lighten up. I bet even the real choreographer would love this, if he doesn't take himself too seriously :-)

  • Lol, this is good stuff, really good parody

  • Come on guys, it's obvious that he's not real choreographer. But I still think this is funny! Why do you hate on him so much? It's just a joke...

  • an error occured please try again -.-

  • Is this a joke? "Radiohead's whole career is about them being raped"...? WTF? LOL

  • fucking hipster

  • Poe's Law strikes again. A good parody of something really stupid is indistinguishable from the truly stupid.

  • @raizumichin That's not actually poe's law (try researching next time first), but nice try: it's when the parody of something is so close to what you would think the original would be like. Of course, I would hope the actual choreographer is not this self-righteous and self-assured, but artists do have a bad habit of being like that :-)

  • @bernlin2000 Telling me to do more research sounds a bit strange when you're only arguing semantics. But no, this is not the real choreographer.

  • come on guys, this is obviously a joke! and it's absolutely hilarious! love it.

  • God, I hope this is fake.

  • annoying arrogant twat

  • bullshit..its not a choreographer.. this dance was created by Wayne McGregor-famous ballet choreographer

  • Sometimes i feel like i'm being repped from all angles.

  • He's saying "ripped" you dipshits, and the dance is obviously a physical interpretation of the way Thom feels. If it wasn't then why would he spend an entire music video dancing? It's very emotional

  • This is not the choreograher of lotus flower. Lotus flower is the work of a renowned ballet choreographer.

  • Am I the only one hearing the guy say "ripped" and not "raped"?

  • haha wow this dude is unbelievable. very odd way of thinking. sadly this is how some people are.

  • 0:42 - 0:57

    This guy is full of shit. You only destroy something by explaining it when there's nothing behind it in the first place, when the work is completely empty.

    "There's no humour in that"

    Oh Christ. This idiot needs to be brought back to reality. And then throwing around the word "rape" about some pop group. Fuck. He needs to grow up.

  • does he (the choreograph) has some mental ilness or what?;D.....

  • Thom would definitely hire someone like this.

  • to me, the dance makes the song and the video. brilliant. absolutely brilliant. such a beautiful visual depiction of raw emotion and energy. i would change nothing about this dance or video, which is saying something considering the fact that i dissect everything about videography.

    agree with me. disagree with me. i don't care and neither should the creators of such. awesome job. end of story.

  • Hahahaha I think we all just got trolled 

  • the greatest white guy dance ever, and a beautiful song. dance thom dance!

  • is this the real director of this video?

  • I don't know about you but I'd love to rape Thom Yorke

  • If the choreography is so bad, then why can't I stop watching it? It is pure genius.

  • Yes everyone, this is definitely a joke. This guy is not the choreographer.

  • I hope you guys all know that this is a joke, this is not the real choreographer to the song, its actually Wayne McGregor. Quite frankly, im surprised so many people think this is an actual interview considering the comedic level of pretension.

  • what a fucking idiot

  • I personally understood the music video

    at this point I can't describe what I feel when I hear this song now but I can totally feel the way thom feels as he dances to the song.

    It's more than just listening to the music... its like you have to "BE" the music yourself and express yourself as what the music is really trying to portray in it's original state of form. Or the physicality of it...

  • sooo, what did this guy actually do in the process? i know hes the "choreographer" but he basically said it was all thom's doing, its his art.

    p.s.: fuck this guy

  • is this guy taking the pissor what

  • I'm not sure what this guy is talking about. it's almost like one of these pisstake interviews, "what IS a dance background, really?" "Follow you down this wormhole"

    He's talking as if the guy has just ripped up the mona lisa. Yeah it's a bit of a work of art (in some people's perception), but come on, don't be so bloody touchy about it!

  • this guy is a douchebag

  • Comment removed

  • First of all, I am not sure that is not a joke. I can't really be bothered to research this guy. Second, I really liked the Lotus Flower video, so I don't have anything against his work - it made more sense to me than all the hyper choreographed pop videos in the world. It was relatable. This is how I would dance around if I let completely go and didn't care if anyone saw me. :) But christ, does this guy sound like a pretentious fool. The answer is yes, yes he does.

  • what an asshole.

  • I feel that people don't understand art or them ducking Delgado to know what anthing means!!!!

  • Tbh I would rape thom from all angles

  • This can't be a real choreographer, talking like an unprofessional! Get a life you idiot!

  • OH MY GOD, LOL, I was like there is NO WAY this guy choreographed Thom Yorke's crazy dance in Lotus Flower... then I noticed... this interview is a joke. Wow thank GOD... funny. "and that's why he is the victim in all this"... I feel like a victim after watching this haha good job :P

  • How does anyone dislike this video

  • @MrDatadump probably because it's fake

  • 'when you define something, you can destroy it'

  • @Seagerash or make it better.

  • this guy is kind of a dick

  • do some research, not him

  • "if you define something you'll destroy it." LOVE IT!

  • Poore dude wants to be famous Wayne McGregor real one

  • i just looked up the real choreographer and that is not him... this vid is fake not really funny

  • this video cannot be serious...

  • Fuck this dude

  • What a twat

  • All i've heard is: "I'M HIPSTER YEAH I'M HIPSTER HIPSTER HIPSTER AND.. your words are raping his art"..

  • 'YOUR WORDS ARE RAPING HIS ART' - quote of the millenium

  • Even if the movements weren't choreographed, the video is great.

  • OK, is he saying "ripped" or "raped" goddamnit? This is a serious question.

  • Is he 'having a laugh'? Good vid though.

  • This guy is the shit- amazing choreography. So articulate and spectacular. I love LOVE LOVE LOVE it.

  • The guy who made the comment about the shrooms had me on the floor.

    It was a vunerable moment for me. I felt like his comment was raping me from every angle.

  • This guy's mad funny

  • I find it amazing that so many people think this is real. This guy is hilarious. I guess his dry humor is done so well that it's hard to pick up he's messing around.

    People. How serious could an interview be with a backdrop of a fake bookshelf?

  • Comment removed

  • i completely agree with everything he's saying and i absolutely loved the video clip but why the fuck would you do an interview if you're going to be so aggressively defensive about every single question. ffs.

  • Comment removed

  • @hmcmo1 He [the Choreographer] is just being a huge dick... Seriously, what kind of questions did he expect? What he had for breakfast?

    Of course the interviewer would want to know things like what the moves mean and stuff like that...

    And its normal that a band in the mainstream is being ripped...

  • @AltairEzio What choreographer are you talking bout? that guy has nothing to do with Radiohead or Lotus Flower Video...

  • hes right, i loved the choreograghy the first nstant i saw it, the vulnerability exposed by it was amazing

  • this really didn't make things better

  • hes being raped from all angles !

  • i totally agree with him. 100%.

  • raping? or ripping?

  • what is this guys obsession with rape though- seriously..

  • LAD

  • "He feels like he's being raped from all angles." Classic.

  • this is a spoof

  • he sounds like a bit of a prick, but it's justified. i completely agree with his attitude towards art and interpreting it.

  • STOP FREAKING OUT ABOUT THIS GUY...

    he's not the real choreographer!!! this was made as a JOKE!

  • I think people think into it too much... just enjoy the damn thing ffs

  • does it need defending? :\

  • I can not believe how far this went. I dance in the same flame as him and I do not do drugs or get drunk after 5pm. Ignorance can kill. I would advice anyone to go to contemporary performances of any kind and learn. It’s not that hard and feels good...

  • i don't like this guy

  • I want the choreographer and Thom in one electric eel lotus dancing man-wich. You are both talented, talented people and very hot. Like a baked potato with big glasses. I love you.

  • Moral of the story, dont analyze art . Sure you should criticize a persons mathematics, but never their art.

  • such a tit, love him

  • lets have boxes for all self expression ... let it quantify and catogorise all off us ... lets have a comfortable little hole in which to live ... won't that make the world a better place.... everything in it's right place ;)

  • lets have boxes for all self expression ... let it quantify and catogorise all off us ... lets have a comfortable little hole in which to live ... won't that make the world a better place.... everything in it's right place ;)

  • ok so is it choreographed or not? tell me its all thom, all.

  • This is funny.

  • What a load of crap.

  • This is a load of crap. Thom Yorke is one of the most creative people alive. If wanted to dance, he would do it his way, and thats exactly what he did. The lotus flower dance wasn't choreographed at all, Thom was just having fun.

  • I can't believe people actually think this is real!!!! This is HILARIOUS.

  • This bloke is a MONUMENTAL tosser. Simple as that.

  • This bloke is a MONUMENTAL tosser. Simple as that.

  • In my opinion, art is all about getting raped. The more raped I feel the more legitimate the piece is to me. That's why I always bring a whistle when I go to gallery openings.

  • i agree with the guy, if it was thom up there he'd slap that motherfucker.

  • I can understand why he's being so defensive, Thom has always been really shy socially and doesn't want to share his personal life at all so he has to be careful about what he answers so as not to make thom feel exposed. I get pissed off seeing all the parodies of lotus flower because I think it's beautiful but people try to make fun of it and I just hope it doesn't make Thom feel shitty:\ he was a bit angry and arrogant but I kind of share his anger, not toward the interviewer though.

  • wow, why is he so angry? geez relax dude.

  • those eyebrows!!!!!!

  • i wanna have his chair

  • i can kinda see where this guy is coming from, but he really just needs to take a chill pill. and also take the massive chip off his shoulder.

  • i just don't understand why he was getting angry with the interviewer. It's not like he was insulting the way Thom was dancing...The choreographer needs to take the pompous, self-righteous stick out of his ass and relax.

  • Really hope this is a joke. Radiohead is one of the best bands of all time, but I pray Thom and the band do not share this douchebag's arrogant, condescending perspective on the sharing of art. This fucking guy is the poster boy for all the self-important, so-called "artist" types that make me hate the art world. His overly dramatic attitude completely undermines his attempt at sincerity. Thom = victim? I think not.

  • @nicetalkintoya

    i agree with exactly what you're saying. though i can appreciate the vulnerability and things the choreographer is discussing, but ya, with art you will be exposed, he knows this, more importantly THOM knows this. He chose to put the video out, he CHOSE to be a rockstar, it WILL be analyzed, that IS what happens.Guy needs to chill, but i do understand how defining something can destroy it, *sometimes*. but ya thom and him seem similar, but hopefully its a bit different for thom

  • @PandaThiefChannel

    You're spot on. I understand how hard it can be to TRULY open oneself up. It's a gutsy thing to do in art and life in general. I agree that interpreting one's own artwork for others limits the power and possibilities of the art itself. Create it, and let it speak. That doesn't mean, however, that you can't give the audience a basic direction or overarching theme, and say "run with it." (con'td)

  • @PandaThiefChannel

    The choreographer is so passive aggressive about denying the audience any inkling of what the dance is about. That's his right, but at least be cool about it. It's like he hates the audience. If that's the case, he should choreograph dances for himself and perform them for the mirror. That goes for any artist, including Thom. My buddy said this has to be a spoof. Hope he's right.

  • that dude looks like peter andre.. hahahaaha

  • One of the greatest music videos I've ever seen...

  • Thank you and thanks to Radiohead. xoxo

  • I'm the choreographer of this video, Lotus Flower. I can't even find my work due to all the parodies.

  • oh it's another parody. oh okay. ha ha. LOL

  • im a huge radiohead fan, but this is freaking hilarious =)

  • I think we all need to acknowledge who the real choreographer is here...

    shrooms.

  • That bookcase isn't real.

  • I think he was the lightman who was just too stoned hhaha.....MOFO

  • look radiohead is the greatest band ever and this video was great but this guy is a snob who thinks we cant understant his genius what a turd

  • I love the books in the background.. some cheap ass backdrop.

  • watching this video stings my heart

  • Lol!

  • Pfft, Thom and his producers knew it would turn into a meme, he has a sense of humour god lol

  • i made a video on my page of Thom Yorke dancing to I Like Big Butts...check it out

  • lol fuckin dorks

    

  • Wonderful.

    Lovely library also.

  • never ! i thought the whole dance is unscripted :D genius

  • if he doesnt want thom yorke's art to be ''ripped'' then dont agree to have an interview to talk about it !!!!! ..... prick !

  • @torrijoenjaulao i'm giggling so hard.

  • Absolutely effing hysterical. I can't wait to see what else these guys release.

  • I really hope this is a joke...it has to be!

  • Lol i love that epic pause after he says Radiohead's whole career is about being raped.

  • is this a pisstake?

  • This guy is great! If you don't get it than your still asleep.

  • This isn't the choreographer, Wayne McGregor is.

  • Comment removed

  • This guy needs to get off drugs

  • I just realised that that's not a real book shelf behind him...

  • i love the "books" in the background lol

  • I don't think this is a real video, but if it is, this guy is a fucking nob

  • if this is an actual video, this guy is an asshole. any artist who releases something to promote their music is going to receive some sort of reaction from the audience. they will be interested in what the musicians they follow have done, thus trying to justify the things they do. this guy ruins art by taking the fun of interpretation for OURSELVES what something can mean. what a load of crock...

  • I believe a "dance background" or a "dance degree" (what he is really referring to) is 4+ years of labor intensive and strenuous rehearsals, rehearsals, rehearsals to refine every exact movement a body can and can't achieve, giving the person with this degree the creditability of excellence so their empolyer isn't taking a risk at hire them.

  • @MetalGinger wow.... people like you are everything thats wrong with art...

  • @simonk512 BAHAHAHAHAHAHA, okay.

  • gotta be fake

  • lol

  • Love the dude's t-shirt. A classic!

  • This guy is a fucking joke

  • the books were real?

    if someone could prove to me its real, then i would consider buying this guy. :)

  • Comment removed

  • I love Radiohead but this guy seems like such a douchebag.

  • All i know is the books behind this dude are fake

  • WOW this choreographer is just as Vague as Thom Yorke... what is this? is this dude trying to copy Thom Yorke?? or is its just some fake shit or is this one of the First Indie Choreographer?

  • would love to see this auto tuned

  • What's the big deal! Thom is just doing his thing, the choreographer was doing his thing. Relax! It's a music video!

  • Is that supposed to be Wayne McGregor? If so, than it's a fake. Just check out McGregor's website.

  • This guy is kind of a jackass, but he has a point. Art for the artist is about self expression and for their audience it's about self interpretation. If the audience knows every little detail about the artists self interpretation it destroys the art as a whole.

  • dude this guy is still talkin? thom yorke is amazing and cooler than this hipster fuck with the glasses.

  • he should have been more expressive about his work, just a little more would have been fine. what a tight arse. y the fk did he even bother to get interviewed.

  • @Alberiana

    u dumbass noob titties. this is fake. a parody.

  • Comment removed

  • is their whole career about them being raped?

  • i saw the video and thought it was strange but was oddly drawn to it....... I think im losin my lotus flower......

  • Could it get any more pretentious? Great song though

  • That's just it. "True Genius" hahahaha No no no. Socrates, that's true genius. This is someone with a genius image, whatever that is.

  • lol " Radiohead's whole career is about getting raped"

  • Ha! he's mean.

  • Bullshit. You guys are too retarded to recognize true genius. I bet you think Justin Bieber really rocks. Get lost. You're lame and boring.

  • @Bavubuka Yorke IS Beiber, only for hipsters. I'll take my frape latte to go.

  • haha well done. They are so over-rated. Awesome!
