Radiohead Lotus Flower (The King Of Limbs Sessions: From The Basement)

[chrissyppk]

The clapping in this version becomes a typewriter clacking, which is a pretty cool effect I think.

[chrissyppk]

This version of this song is much better than that recorded on King of Limbs. I guess I'm too low fi, but this version sounds so much more better. Well, like more urgent and real or something. I come to this site when I really want to hear Lotus Flower.

[dallexandro]

most important music in the last twenty years

[justinjoewills]

1:35 holy shit that drum syncopation

[juancvl96]

This song is incredible, Radiohead is the best alternative group of all time

[daniiiiiii68]

REWOLF SUTOL

[hojima]

Love the interplay between the drummers and they make it sound like theres some double kick syncopation going on now and then.

[glenbejamin]

1:26 The only know shot where Colin doesn't look like an ugly British bassist.

2:17 What he looks like most of time.

[VerdeBeetNoize]

[bernlin2000]

Man that opening is badass...

[howmanygirls5678]

love it at 0:18 when he cocks his head slightly like a mad scientist fiddling with his experiment

[Melpomenos]

6 people think that the like was also mirror-imaged

[MrXipetotec79]

6 people misclicked...I forgive you...as for God...well...

[lewecca]

I love how they all get involved, all playing different instruments. so good!

[grizmusic]

colins face at 2:16 :D

[nge1301]

Mother of god. They DID clone Phil.

[olturrano]

por que esta subido asi??

[FERDINANDNUNCIO]

@olturrano Derechos de autor... asi evitan que les quiten o eliminen el video....

[etejuanete3]

nominated for best rock song and best rock performance grammys.... I'm starting to think the world's finally realizing the greatness of this album

[baillou2]

It's so good it hurts!

I convulse in fits of almost leaving my body. But I can't quite get off....

[wakcan]

this song has grown on me so much from the seed it was

[Kjobbit]

2:33 colin has the best 'groove' face

[erg0apollo]

@Kjobbit lmfaoo

[Raphaelling]

best band ever

[narwales]

[maffogangsta]

BEST BAND IN THE HISTORY

[thdizzyelectrictango]

I agree, the SNL performance of this was really ruined by the sound guy. the production on SNL's music segment is pretty bad..

[pablomelo04]

hahah i thought everyone was left-handed here

[biggestfanofroger]

Bass is ORGASMIC!!

[WickedLiquid]

When they did this on SNL it was terrible but they friggin nailed it here. Awesome song.

[Mahersaadzidane]

They make everybody else seem like amateurs...

[Samyaza69]

Very Radioheadish!

[adolfdance]

por que se ven al revés los vídeos?

[computadorasana]

@adolfdance para que no los den de baja youtube por copyright....

[DEEECKED]

I really like this Basement session, but I liked the first one just a bit better. The last one had songs from Hail to the Thief and In Rainbows, I wish they had done some older songs on this too. Imagine how awesome some of the stuff off Kid A and Amnesiac would be with 2 drummers.

[Sbrenzen]

Just discovered they are all lefthanded!

[aaxi0n]

@Sbrenzen If you notice, the subtitles, along with the channel's logo in the top right corner are reversed. Leading one to believe that the entire video is in fact reversed, making them appear to be left-handed.

[Sbrenzen]

@aaxi0n Oh yes I know... I was joking! Anyway... many thanks!

[zBani]

@Sbrenzen the video is mirror-imaged...wouldve loved the idea thou...

[JulieAdo]

@Sbrenzen that's nuts lol

[Sbrenzen]

@JulieAdo I don't understand what "that's nuts" means. I think it's slang... too much slang for an italian..

[Jdolar6]

@Sbrenzen That’s nuts – è pazzesco/ che è pazzo, maybe? Sorry, my Italian isn’t very good.

[Sbrenzen]

@Jdolar6 Oh I didn't expect even an Italian translation! That's nuts!! ;) (thank you!)

[jaqdudley]

Oh i understand now

[jaqdudley]

Why does everyone keep saying "just this one here" ?

[RetroRifleGuitarist2]

@jaqdudley thom said it once but it was looped

[PeterBlueprintRev]

the guy playing the drums is the touring drummer from portishead. (portishead + radiohead = two baldhead drummers. that are awesome.)

[hany259]

these guys

[MWin23]

I like the different bass rhythm they use live. Much groovier.

[kingping189]

Thom should try singing the verses in his modal (normal) voice rather than falsetto. Play it in your head... it sounds great.

[Mrmtjones]

@kingping189 his normal singing voice is falsetto, dude.

[mattaijauri]

How come it´s mirror reversed?

[DEEECKED]

@mattaijauri to avoid copyright infringements

[simplelife88393]

dat voice

dat songs

dem voice

[davestany]

GETSB ETTER AND BETTER EVERY TIME WOW

[shadilrosso]

JUST THIS ONE HERE JUST THIS ONE HERE JUST THIS ONE HERE JUST THIS ONE HERE JUST THIS ONE HERE JUST THIS ONE HERE JUST THIS ONE HERE JUST THIS ONE HERE JUST THIS ONE HERE JUST THIS ONE HERE JUST THIS ONE HERE

[alabamaandy71]

Without a doubt...... The fattest I have heard a Moog sound. You cant beat the raw sound of a well set up Moog.

[tellittoyourking1]

Not his best vocally

[SlimChance718]

after this song i wanna have sex

[AnRTPgA]

JUST THIS ONE HERE, MOTHERFUCKER

[bLackmarketRadio]

just this one here!



[joostman16]

wow they're all left-handed!

[ajsledzep]

@joostman16 the film has been flipped...

[joostman16]

@ajsledzep oh rly?

[jb2billion]

compressed. too bad

[DeJarreVu]

why have all these King Of Limbs Sessions: From The Basement been mirror flipped?

[SSaxdude]

@DeJarreVu copyrights, I'm assuming. I've seen the same with other band performances.

[DeJarreVu]

@SSaxdude Ah, ok thanks.

[FidelGutier]

3 personas que no saben de musica 

[davestany]

Whats this song about?

[etejuanete3]

@davestany about... ballooning heads. haha jk. no one knows, man, everyone has their own interpretation... and it's kinda fun to try to figure it out. but no one knows what's going on into Thom's insane and genius mind

[jmeezypeezy1]

@davestany Wrong question

[luzatar]

@davestany Anal Sex.

[rubberiskewl789]

JUST THIS ONE HERE.

[PaulDormand]

They've cloned Phil Selway!

[Guiyo344]

@PaulDormand of course... they aren't just music geniuses

[jjysoserious]

just this one here

[RuralMurderer]

Murdoc form Gorillaz and Colin separated at birth?

[bigchill123a]

@dramaticpickles we do. they're a great band from England named "Radiohead." Ever hear of them?

[dramaticpickles]

@bigchill123a I know we do. thats the point I was making. I was talking about Radiohead -_-

[dramaticpickles]

Its so awesome how these guys haven't stopped making their music... we need guys like these nowadays

[MultiLalalee]

I wish they hadn't done Sat Nite Live, it is demeaning for a band like this

[SnakeJuice720]

@MultiLalalee The SNL mixes always suck donkey dick too. These basement recordings are way better.

[d24isDURIAN]

they are getting old =( sad

[anyzoe1]

I LOVE TOM york

[TheAblivionMusic]

Yorke with a beard is fucking awesome. a refined rebellious rock'n'rolla

[Alibodhi]

What's there to say anymore? Radiohead's music always speaks volumes.

[Chester170896]

:')

[dimre01]

Colin's face at 2:18

[rippersk8er]

@dimre01 epic, indeed

[marmolko]

one of the sexiest songs they have, love it!!!

[unknownwizdom]

The Lotus flower grows in the deep mud, far away from the sun. But, sooner or later, the Lotus reaches the light becoming the most beautiful flower ever.

[arsenalfan98]

the standout track from the basement

[Yechimash]

LOL at Colin's evil snatching Bilbo face at 2:18

[Hokageeeeeee]

@Yechimash hit the 4 lol

[sinvin]

@Yechimash Ha! No shit...Unreal! Love it for sure...

[burton12E4]

2:18...



[Visuallynoisy88]

beats the studio version.

[amisaad214]

from all the negative reviews, no one rly sees how amazingly unique this album is

[sherbet08]

4:10 i was in another world, opened me up and i felt free and happy as fuck!

[ajijemuran]

why they use 2 drummer?

[kinversoni]

Better than studio.

[Itzsfo0]

I have one major problem with radiohead, especially in "live from the basement" formats - one major problem with their songs ...esp at the end sequences when they seem to get real good, spooky and echoes of voices filling the air...i have one major problem with all of this...their songs end.

[PhilGerb93]

@Itzsfo0 So original dude, so original.

[cintiasm]

crazy legend

[RHCPh4x]

Clicking/Holding 4 while watching this video....It was horrifying but awesome at the same time

[dustinodell1]

I WAS WONDERING WHY THEY WERE ALL LEFT HANDED.

[kingoflimbs11]

Am I the only person who doesn't like Lotus Flower? I absolutely love TKOL, but everytime I listen to it, I find my self skipping Lotus Flower.

[Syroco]

@kingoflimbs11 for myself, I was the same at first. Couldnt believe they chose this one as the single for KOL, but then it really, really, really grew on me. This is now one of my all time favorite Radiohead songs to date.

[kinversoni]

@kingoflimbs11

You are the only one.

[777fredflinstone]

amazin



[TheGreatKrystoff]

Does anybody else thing Colin looks a bit like Paul McCartney when me makes that face?

[boketo11]

ola buen basement..

alguien me podria explicar por las traducciones al español al reves??

[Claudetite]

@boketo11 por que tienen que voltear el video en si para que no haya copyright infringement

[WilliamDavidCourt]

That little riff he plays at the beginning on the synth is amazing..

[Ckordobah]

2:32 ~ 2:36 .... Base player does E.T. impersonation....! Jajajaja.

[ricopaulson1]

colins face at 2:17 is like "this song is Tits with a capital T!!!" he knows it..his face shows it

[luzatar]

Jonny Greengood, one of the best left handed guitarists in the world.

[kurtisurban]

@luzatar its a backwards video i believe

[luzatar]

@kurtisurban Lol, i know. It was just a joke. :)

[luzatar]

@kurtisurban Lol, i know. It was just a joke. :)

[aledobretociastko]

@kurtisurban No, I think they did it on purpose, lol!

[poiuytreza11]

who is the bald guy ?? other than phil

[radiodead74]

@poiuytreza11 Clive Deamer is his name,I like the fact that RADIOHEAD has no problem doing whatever it takes to stay true to the songs,,to bring the music to us live better than recorded.. they had to figure out how to reproduce the material @ a high level so it didn't sound "empty"live . i hope Phil is ok with it. I think it opens alot of doors material wise for them..not that they needed any help!!!!

[fokiuraz]

listen to your <3 !!!

[mesinjahit10]

is this collin's basement?because his father is also playing drums..

[iscottm]

@mesinjahit10 lolololol

[Stillillgal]

RADIOHEAD, IS FOREVER THE BEST BAND IN THE WORLD <3

[WilliamDavidCourt]

2:18

Best bit.

[b3ttyHen94]

When The King of Limbs was announced, people wanted an OK Computer-esque album again (or In Rainbows part deux) but instead Radiohead pulled another Kid A

LOVE IT <3

[RealDgr87]

Jonny's got them salad fingers

[simplelife88393]

@RealDgr87 lol

[fredrikottosson]

is colin playing lefthanded???

[musikyle]

@fredrikottosson the video is mirrored

[adamochayon]

Proof that this song can be epic live.

They just gotta sort out Jonny's synth at the "empty space" part (where he messed up in glasto as well) and this is pure gold.

[edisongla55]

Jaw dropping. Just amazing

[xBillyTheKidx]

look at thom!

[onekean]

Life is perfect with Radiohead !

[lonestarabd]

That is so good it puts me into a bliss trance.

[SmokeymehhPott]
