is the end of this video the real ending of the video? where he has his back turned to the screen? if it is thats awesome. After reading what people thought of this song is fits it really well. Just curious if anyone knows for sure.
There's a lot of albums that remind me of how much of a moody little cunt teenager I was. If that bullshit poetry I use to write never resurfaces, I'll be a happy man.
@jdlund i was the same mate, i never wrote poetry though, i went through a stage where i actually convinced myself i was Jim Morrisson incarnate. how strange.
wat an awesome video and even better song, since the first day i saw it on mtv when i was young, I was hooked, Even when thom plays it acoustic, especially , when Thom plays it acoustic, live . . this cannot be beat, I had 6 Jack and cokes in my hand and dropped them the second I heard the intro . . .
People, Get off of George Orwell's dick already, I mean 2+2=5 is not about government abuse its a symbol used to demonstrate the parties control over peoples minds the ol "I say jump you say how high!", damn tired of hearing that middle school analysis that seems to spread thro here like hotfire! DAMN!
Almost all radiohead videos are strangely put together...Haven't you noticed? For example 2+2=5 by Radiohead... Explain that video? Pigs sell tvs and eventually cows go on strike???? Try explain it WHEN IT MAKES SENCE! But I do LOVE radiohead.(: &&Their videos... I<3randomness....:D
@bitchinification for us the videos doesn´t make sense, more we try to explain, more we couldn ´t understand.
Maybe it has nothing to do with the music at all, the videos from radiohead has to do with what they feel and what they think when they are doing the music and it could have nothing to do with music for us buit has for them.
@bitchinification ignorance has limits ya know ] that video is a reference to George Orwell's Animal Farm. The dogs, the babies, the milk and the flags are clear and obvious references. Of course, you'll (probably) never do it will ya :s
Like Well said "Human history becomes more and more a race between education and catastrophe."
PS: forgot this post if you're 14 ~ childhood should be enjoyed! :)
@BlackWingsRainbowTip The whipping is the madness that comes from being forced to believe 2+2=5 when we are made to believe a lie, the subconscious rebels against it.. Tyranny anyone?
The video is on an old show called "Robin", by Magnus Carlsson. It's not racist just because there's a black guy...(who also played role as Robins best friend in the series)
Weird video. A lot of emphasis on white titties. At first, when the guy in the beanie went into the room with the angel, I thought they were gonna fuck! I was thinkin, Oh shit, that fool pulled his angel!
theres no meaining man, it's just a hat... it has an R in front... for Radiohead. I suppose. I think that's it I suppose. Dont think too much about it, just enjoy it!
i think i've read somewhere, that they locked the video producer in a room while hes listening to the song without any lyrics. and then all the things he imagined he either wrote or drawed, thats why its so random and weird.
Fellow Radiohead fans, we are Koi, we just finished our debut album.
The album can be found at Spotify: spotify:album%3A2oltxOpeH5m2J1 vgKv00pZ , it's also in our Koichannel, or you can search for "In Tomorrow Hid Yesterday". We are not forcing people to check it out or to like it, so I hope you don't mind us spreading the word, if we're shit you'll surely notice.
The album is free for download,so it's not for money we operate. Hope you check it out and like it though, rock on!
@WyattDstevens12 True, the funny thing is that the artist who made this video was told that he had to make a 7-minute video for Radiohead. Not a clue about the song, just make a video, and so it happened...
@sugmydik u just obviously cant listen to music...let me guess you listen to T-Pain and all the shit on the radio trying to pass for rap....let me tell u i can make one rite now...Gettin money gettin pussy bass beat snare roll not tht hard
dont u dair dis this track ctfdsa. radiohead is above you're conchiousnes. ur scribblin crap bout computers being paraniod..wtf. Ok.. that's the young American posters catered for.
The contingent logic proposed in these particular lyrics can not be established so come & swim in the ambiguity, it's lovely & warm. I too heard that interview & Thom never uttered anything as foul & profane as 'c**t'' -- the term he used was ''Oi shitsucking whores'' - come on, at least do your research.
He became a ghost. He went completely off the grid. After cutting his hair and taking several showers, he decided to just take life by the balls, as a drunken fugitive who was suspiciously a "paranoid android." Thom said that his terminology comes from a nightmare he had about the future being controlled by apple.
A better first-hand account of the interview:
"oi cunts im thom yorke and computers gonna take over ay"
In layman terms: Thom Yorke explained in an interview that the bar is about every single hospital, school, and even the Chamber of Commerce was substituted by bars. Anarchy was created. Apple controlled everything; the politicians, police officers, firefighters, etc. Several impeachment attempts occurred by the "paranoid androids" a group of altruists who saw people that had to rely on health care being punted in the head by mac users and attempted to help. Thom did not join this group.
@ctfcDSA What the fuck are you talking about? This song was out 12 years ago. He didn't base the song on Mac ruling over the world of Nanotechnology. He wrote it based on a fucked-up experience with some crazy folk he encountered at a bar.
Sadly, the rescue did not exist. No helicopter actually came to save him. He died, dazed and confused, and when he was passed out from falling on the ground he dreamed that a helicopter had rescued him and taken him to heaven. Heaven being the only place free of the mac computers.
In addition, the part of the song that says "When I am king, you will be first against the wall
with your opinion which is of no consequence at all"
Is what Steve Jobs said when his voice was reversed in an interview relating the release of the macbook. This meant that Steve Jobs would kill Bill Gates as soon as he became king and pioneer in nanotechnology.
Lastly, the video represents any given windows user, in a world where apple has taken over. Nanotechnology takes over. He is rescued.
This song was written by Thom Yorke because he saw a world, like Fahrenheit 451, where good computers based on Windows and other OS's were burned by firefighters to allow passage to nanotechnology. The term "paranoid android" means a person that does not use this nanotechnology. The unborn chicken noises are the sound a pair of iphone headphones makes when listened to it at full volume with the bass extension found on iphone/itouch.
SO...if this is EMO...then i guess i am emo.....didnt realize that....so time for a haircut,cover my sad face w too long bangs.........I DONT THINK SO.....

This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I think that you have to be less then 16 yrs old in order to fully enjoy the potential of this band. Somehow youtube recommended this for me..
I lol every time someone says Radiohead is not EMO. Look at this guy: "Radiohead is not emo, look these idiots must think because radiohead are great at conveying emotion they must be emo! lol what dumbasses" WHY TRY TO DENY IT? Are they Happy emotions? Does this music inspire you to "jump for joy"? No. It's sad as fck therefore it is emo and not alt rock
So if a song is sad, it's emo. So sad music by Enya is emo. Falloutboy (imo the original gay emo band) is emo. Louis Armstrong is also an emo. I think to fully appreciate how stupid your comment is, you have to be OVER 16. Ciao.
@homeshop2 DUDE...SHUT UP AND LISTEN TO PINK FLOYD or bob dylan... and EARLY 90'S ALT...... & BTW...I HAVE NEVER HEARD ANY EMO SONG THAT SOUNDS LIKE RADIOHEAD BECAUSE emo bands CANT EVEN COMPOSE A MELODY.... THEY ARE (off-tune)PEOPLE TRYING TO IDENTIFY WITH A NEW CRAP AGE OF DEPRESSIVE FAGS....U SUCK ....
I love how radiohead are so different in every album. i mean you would not believe that this and house of cards are by the same people. but they are both as good as each other
lmfao DUDE I was just fucking thinking this. Infact after I thought about this i scrolled down to see if anybody commented on this and sure enough the first reply was yours.
God, what the hell...A little over 300k in 2 years? X_X
ummm, all i can gather is that it's probably about the conflict between religion and morality, and society and sin- which if this is the case, this is a strange topic for radiohead O.o
If I had to venture a guess about the meaning of this music video... I would say that the meaning is, that life in our modern world is so wierd that it leads people to make weird videos like this.
there are actually several direct references in the song (including the title) to the book "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy", but as with most music it is also intended to be interpreted for your own personal meaning

I love how radiohead are so different in every album. i mean you would not believe that this and house of cards are by the same people. but they are both as good as each other

It must be that people are buying the albums and not going on YouTube for it, right?

ummm, all i can gather is that it's probably about the conflict between religion and morality, and society and sin- which if this is the case, this is a strange topic for radiohead O.o

If I had to venture a guess about the meaning of this music video... I would say that the meaning is, that life in our modern world is so wierd that it leads people to make weird videos like this.

there are actually several direct references in the song (including the title) to the book "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy", but as with most music it is also intended to be interpreted for your own personal meaning
