Radiohead - Reckoner

[jacknifejuggernaut]

Thin yorke is one of the most amazing singers ever

[BlueLotusSC]

Wow that guy can shake a lemon and play keyboard at the same time. This band is amazing. =D

[FatesMoM]

instead of trying to sing the lyrics just meow its liberating 

[pauldve]

Reckoner You can't take it with yer Dancing for your pleasure You are not to blame for Bittersweet distractor Dare not speak its name Dedicated to all human beings Because we separate like ripples on a blank shore Because we separate like ripples on a blank shore Reckoner Take me with yer Dedicated to all human beings

[reinlying]

it is Wednsday morning and i am first listening the Reckoner..it is a great flight Merrss Radiohead...i am crashed..:)

[cmessett1]

liked gnarls barkley version better. that boy can SANG!

[miasatif]

@cmessett1. Gnarles barkley's version is lacking in the spiritual harmony depicted by the delicately refined radiohead, listen again.

[electrosos]

tsss por las cosas que vale la pena seguir escuchando musica buena y no chingaderas aun existen eso grupos que apesar de que si no tocas lo que vende no tienes aun asi tiene exito

[linethemind]

God!!!! I very much dislike my neighbors!!!

[MrFANKurtC]

great!

[fumunshu]

Ladies and gentlemen- Dr. Gregory House on Tambourine!

[katenzcool]

what band would actually do a 3 hour webcast for their fans? Bands like radiohead don't exist anymore. God I love them so much.

[joeisaflyingfish]

@katenzcool the only other one I can think of who are still around are Arcade Fire.

[katenzcool]

@joeisaflyingfish yeh there are still a few around I guess, but rarely. Radiohead are too awesome.

[joeisaflyingfish]

@katenzcool I agree. Things will be better when the music industry collapses ;)

[katenzcool]

@joeisaflyingfish lol! definetly yeh, I just want to go back to the 90's. Music was so awesome at that time, Music was amazing..something happened when our world entered the 21st century

[Axes83]

dislike button????? why?

[jjaysober]

@CapitalES But even thom york says "thumbs down" got it?! ><

[radioheadkids2]

@lfil28 :)

[jjaysober]

Thumbs down if you like this vid! xD

[renzudoku]

@lfil28 before to his lemonade XD

[Magdixxx]

Excelente..video¡¡

[Bebkins]

bless you thom yorke......

[relentlessthemusic]

This one of my Favorite Radiohead songs.

[chemysoul]

i love the sound of the guitar....

[Monsieurlasable]

'cause we separate like ripples on a blank shore....awesome...

[henjohns1]

It's about global economic growth... i'm sure you can work out the rest

[witherhills84]

best version

[yotubies]

Haha^^ Realy!?

[Stevenbadman]

What an awesome jam, thanks for posting. Can anybody share with me what they understand the song to be about? It's strange, I'm usually the first one to have all sorts of theories about songs, but this one leaves me kinda blank interpretation wise. In a kinda freaky way. And sweepingly beautiful too.

[cwestsupporter]

if one thing pisses me off about all art, it's someone "telling" you what a song is about, i'm like you, take whatever you want from a book or artpiece or song, it's all about what it does for you, not what someone tells you its supposed to do, like the guy above acting like were fools cuz we dont think its about the global economy, i take it as a song against slave labor and human trafficking

[itsachickenwiththing]

@cwestsupporter nah, All I Need was the one against slave labor and what not from the looks of the mtv music video, but I get what you're saying, personally for me I can't even describe how i feel when I listen to Radiohead, but to quote another comment from another Radiohead video it's "still better than sex"

[lufc550]

@cwestsupporter

I love your view man :) Tbh for me the whole of in rainbows is a story about someone getting over their partner.

[rjfantastical]

@cwestsupporter so true, it means what you want it to mean...thom makes it so we all have to define what his songs mean.

[brenden7]

@cwestsupporter That's such a post-modern cop out. If I create something that is communicating and idea, I want you to understand that idea that I worked to convey.

[cwestsupporter]

@brenden7 god leave it to an artist to use phrases like "post-modern" get over urself or at least be one of those tortured artists that kill themselves as their final masterpiece. It's not my fault that your a poor fledgeling "artist". And by the way, fuck you, i can smear my morning shit on canvas and name it the virgin mary and be an artist. Get a real education and job and stop watching through the window when your mom sucks my balls, thats creepy.

[bluxx123]

can anyone tell me what he is drinking at the very beginning?? any guess??

[IAmTheWalrusBlog]

I think it's grape juice. Thom seems like a grape juice kind of guy

[raven010891]

yesterday i woke up suckin a lemon

[steinmeleon]

0:20 jonny looks like a little boy...hehe.

[willobeen]

thats colin, not jonny.

[steinmeleon]

oops i meant 0:10

[willobeen]

:P still wrong.

try about 0:17

[testsubjectLILY]

I want to learn how to play the lemon part. :(

[johnnnyk47]

Awesome tune. Such great musicians... Gotta say I love Gnarls Barkley's version of this track as well. 2 totally different voices but Cee-lo's voice carries such a great timbre, particularly for this beautiful tune.

[noisez13000]

youuuuuu are not to blameeeee forrrrrrr

bittersweettttt distractorsssssss

[Luvinhas]

i love this video do you?

THUMBS DOWN!

[Lurgsous]

Led Zeppel...wtf?! hell no!

Heh good song

[Funfreego]

blablabla i am silly hheheheheehehhe

[irrellevents]

No, this is Radiohead....

[ubbddu]

lol

[Eliasoz]

LMAO, what? ahahaha

[KaPonchandBarbers]

Well this is the original...

[endingStart]

Im not even a radiohead fan but this is my favorite song of all time. mmmmmmm.

[zinkerled]

I think that automatically makes you a radiohead fan. I think that automatically makes you a rado auromatically makes you a radiohead fan I think that automatically makes you a radioheadf fan I think that automatically makes you a radioheadl faanhead fan I think that

[pickersplayspop]

This is wicked but I think Ed should have played the guitar on this then Thom would be able to focus on the singing, it's a tricky little bit to play and sing at same time. I'm officially analy retentive

[gmpm]

If one thing is certain, they definitely aren't shy or afraid of exposing their inner most feelings and emotions through song. Subliminal communication.

[Russiaaan]

haha nice lemon

[souljacker666]

fuckin A

[kamg07]

Classic

[sasbomber]

Best band in the world! Not now, but of the last 15 years. What's that? Oh, it's all the whiney soft-rockers in the background going "What about us?"

[jewe1y]

"lets see what happens" AWESOMENESS Happened. Im Happy!

[jnburch]

i love radiohead but i often have trouble figureing out the meaning of their songs this is one of those times so someone fill me in

[DrErnst]

Lemon marakass or rice ball or whatever u call it! hehe.. that's classy gear u got Radiohead! hehe, it's quite humoristic! One of my favs with radiohead! In Rainbows is almost my favourite with them.. not one lousy song on the cd and + I got it for free on the internet handed out by them selves.. perhaps I'll by the record later on just to support them! Prolly by another of their records --> amnesiac though..

[scotty686]

its a lemon. its a reference to 'everything in its right place' with the lyrics 'yesterday i woke up sucking a lemon.'

:)

[radioheadkids2]

@scotty686 LAME!

[nadis89]

fucking amazing

[nadjacp]

"lets see what happens"... awesome!!

[frenchflairl]

O_yeah

[yourasorrycat]

i think the lemon if thats what ur talkin about the shaker im not even sure what it is ive just seen ppl use it to stay on melody

[wolffrankenstein]

Thom's voice is awe inspiring as always. Amazing band; ten thousand fold live.

[GgRrYyPpHhOoNn]

What's with the lemon?

[spencertlw2]

it's a percussion instrument in the form of a lemon.

[BeastlieDraws]

its a shaker

or something like that i dont remember what it was called in band class

but it has the seeds inside to make the noise

[gunnersdog]

awful song....awful

[LongPig1]

Gunnersdog: Seriously, and you like Guns n Roses? Sad, dead genre of music which is just a pantomime for cross dressers.

"Take me down to paradise city where the....YAWN!"

[radioheadkids2]

@LongPig1 LOL

[TheParanoidAndroid1]

why so awful? it's genius i think? why do you say it's awful?

[phobe864]

gunnersdog how is it awful this song is just perfect its _ wow

[CHErevolucion1]

haha i agree. but they're radiohead.

[brokenbuttefly]

proximamente en Mexico!!!!!!!!!

[cintiasareb]

We're waiting for Radiohead in Brazil and I've been waiting for this band for ages. So happy they'll play for the brazilian people.

[chirix88]

grande radiohead

no me los quiero perder aca en chile

:/

ya se vendieron muchas entradas en muy poco tiempo y yo sin entrada aun, pero haré lo imposible por la mia!

grade RH :)

[LUBNAHJM]

I think John Frusciante is been inpired bij this song when he did record Murderers.

[patrickbayer]

a perfect song!!

great album.:)

[shallowlife]

Why is his shirt blue from behind but black from the front?? so weird :o

[moongirl8400]

ok, eyes like a hawk. ease up, enjoy the music. its probably the lighting from behind him.

[ratmrox4563]

am I the only one to notice that the drummer isn't playing the same beat off the album? it's close, but the difference is great enough to tell them apart

[1980sDavidBowie]

Yeah, also if you watch the scotch mist version, the drum beat is different.

It doesn't really change the song though. It's just an extra beat or two on the ride during a down beat or something.

[liekeistofjes]

Sublime...

[numbchucking]

great song. goddamn I lvoe this song

[wellivebeen]

it's ofcourse just ceelo's vocals

[wellivebeen]

i think gnarls' version is wider, this is great but a little "thin"

[davidbeast123]

this is just amazing

[rockon6191]

This song renders me speechless. One of the most beautiful things I've ever heard.

[raven010891]

perfect :)

[Corky5ta1]

frames of subliminal messages or just poor quality video?

[TiagoKino]

Hm.... let's see on Finalcut!? Im really curious

[jakep34]

WHOA... Jonny looks like 10 years younger with short hair.

[kgis17]

why thumbs down?

AND ALWAYS WILL

:D

[HallBoss3]

[snotsthepig]

Brilliant. Brilllllllli - i - ant.

[JoelSewlal]

[antoneLLina8]

[hhhhhhhhhhhhh2453]

All thumbs up from me

[custab00]

Abbey Road studios

[custab00]

I come accross this song because Gnarls Barkley(cee-lo)covered it. It's good to hear the original-very beautiful-2 hear more musical magic check out gnarls barkley's transformer!!! the version sung in the studio

[diovisi]

haha same thing for me.. Gnarles did a GREAT cover of this and now i cant get it outa my head. man i did miss Radiohead

[Seandaman99]

Pure class just pure class

[BigNubStudios]

If someone ever calls heir music crappy, will burn them alive

[faketreee]

No. Love, Peace and Understanding is the answer to everything.

[BigNubStudios]

so true

[dannooooooo]

if some threatned me that id never hear this song again id kill them

[ASqUEe183722]

I CAN PLAY THIS ON DEE GUITARR! YAY!

[ripplesonablankshore]

[ASqUEe183722]

lol y do u?

[ripplesonablankshore]

for months ive felt like theres something missing within me,seeing this made me realise it was the fact i dnt know the tab 4 this song!!!!!!ha.

[bmesesan]

I learned to draw deers , but i can't draw humans. i can't draw anything beside deers and tulips, but i draw them good.

[ASqUEe183722]

ERRR WTF?

[JODQ11]

i can draw beautiful factories fishes and cars but humans ugh nop

[monkeyball5000]

the lemon is just used for timing, like when to hit each paino key, this is fucking amazing

[CINTERPOL]

why are people giving you thumbs down ?????? youtube users are weid

[monkeyball5000]

yes indeed they are, I don't really care but radiohead is godsend

[jesser779]

that lemon he is shaking at 2:18 is a shaker?

[Guitarguyy]

Nevermind I dont think that is a lemon anymore.. haha

[Guitarguyy]

What sound does waving the lemon back and forth make?

[putzzz]

its like a shaker.....lol

[hornsofarabbit]

i made an animated video for this song!! msg me for the URL!! it's worthwile, i dare say!

[Twoandtwois5]

Too much Ganjamule, too much.

[Ganjamule]

"why is the camera on me" He asks. Cuz your the lead singer of a renound international band you Oxford cunt!!!

[Battlefront3king]

Brilliant song!...and percussions ...of course!!

[Ganjamule]

fav song great stuff thome yorke is a a smelly flip flop but i love there tunes nice one. I paid the full price for the album no need to to give it for free fuckheads like me will always pay for top quality stuff.

[miltontkeynesgirl]

This is my fave song off of the album, so beautiful and hauting . .GREAT STUFF!

[intricately]

Let's forget the fact that Radiohead are one of the greatest living bands, that this song is one of their best, that the webcasts are a really cool idea, that Johnny using a lemon as a shaker is fucking hilarious, and that Radiohead live is something approaching a religious experience. Forget all that...Ed is a damn sexy man.

[amalanwilliams]

na ah, johnny is the sexy man

[serwetkowywritter]

love them, this song makes my day

[ChutneyVerde]

questa canzone mi ossesiona!!nn posso farne a meno... in rainbow è perfetto

[fundy76]

If there was to be a casting call for a Radiohead fictional docu-film,

the players would be as follows:

Martin Short as Thom

Bruce Willis as Phil

Colin Greenwood as himself cuz noone could double that great mug

Ben Affleck as Ed

Sandra Bernhardt as Jonny

[andvari]

Dude, what're you talking about? CHRISTOPHER WALKEN as Colin.

[fundy76]

oh my god i didnt even think of that!

nice lookout!

[CINTERPOL]

lol omg

[intricately]

Yes, as much as I hate to admit it, Ben Affleck definitely looks like Ed (NOT the other way round!) And Sandra Bernhardt as Jonny! That'd be gold!!

[CheshireCatty]

I think we can all agree that the lemon makes that song what it is.

In all seriousness though, they blow my mind. And Thom is looking very hot these days (sorry, that's very shallow).

[00NastyN8]

That's why I love Groupies. It doesn't matter if the guy looks like Jason Vorhees jumping out of a lake, but as long as he's a lead singer for a band, HE'S HOT!!!

[bondafone]

lovely, amazing, perfect ... radiohead always perfect =o

[seapockets]

such a great song, gives me chills everytime

[kiek14]

This is so good

[guerillagourmet]

Are you serious?! You all thought the lemon was a real lemon?? You actually thought Jonny was shaking a lemon just to be funny? That is priceless.

[lizzered]

I think this is my favorite Radiohead song...ever.

[CINTERPOL]

i love the lemmon

[baldassaredegenes]

yeah, like the egg-shaped shakers.

[baldassaredegenes]

thom yorke doesn't really exist.

a human with a voice like that, it's impossible. =)

[playerthe2nd]

this is true......he's some sort of spirit or something......

[ragsyrags4mr4]

i think it's "because we seperate it ripples our reflection"

[kimowasabe]

i likes me pop without guitar driven melodies --mix in some dyspepsia and we have a winnah!

[BALLSrich]

this is my favorite track off the new cd. but for real, what is up with the lemon?

[cuntlung]

Heh the Lemon :) i don't get it either bur it don't look fresh. I could have done with one this afternoon for my Salmon and veg but i aint got any.

[cuntlung]

The only music in the world that makes me fkn cry cunts

[gpeddino]

Amazing, but I think it lost a bit of strength. The choirs and strings in the studio version make it even better.

Radiohead rules us all.

[CINTERPOL]

look at johnny hes such a pimp with his pink shirt

[slicebo123]

its shore

[Radi0HeadFan]

...hte chorus still got me confused

...still don't know if is "because we separate like ripples on a blank share" or "because we separate it ripples our reflexions"

...sounds me like the first one, but i love the second one

...xD

[brenchen]

sounds more like than share to me

[brenchen]

sounbds more like shore than share to me (computer froze when i posted this before and a word disappeared lol)

[atlantaguitar]

according to the liner notes in the album its

'because we separate like ripples on a blank shore

in rainbows

because we separate (etc.)'

[lololicious69]

This song is haunting and beautiful.

[bobbels101]

Wow. He plays a guitar, a piano and a lemon.

[losghost]

Not only do I think these guys are one of the best artistic talents in the past 2 decades they earn my respect time and again for their dedication to the art. They are artists in the true sense that they remain truthful to themselves and produce what they love. It's apparent in this video. It makes me respect them only more.

[matsagaskin]

oh my god i cannot believe what i am hearing my senses are not enough to understand this beautiful world of sound.

[a4l4]

i love the song! the strings toward the end, isn't that "silly love song" by wings?

[lockedoutagain]

if chuck norris would be human he would be thom yorke:)

[eyepatchplease]

fuck off

[CINTERPOL]

lol chuck norris thom yorke is from the future
