  • Videotape backwards>Nude backwards

  • Maahhh ehhh fisheleaahhnn.. .iieehhopehhh.. ohhhh oeoe oeoee feeehhhh... dasish ohhii..... AAaaaAAaahhh...

  • It's scary how amazing they are.

  • oh cool. sounds like palindrome with a couple mooning spoonerisms. oh gosh. and it has a smell!! rum laced sponge cake!! dang. im going to moon soon.

  • Comment removed

  • You could play their music sideways and it would be awesome anyways.

    No, I don't know how to play a record sideways.

  • thats trippy, kind of freaks me out..

  • (: !dnab etirovaf ym si deahoidar

  • it sounds a lot like the original weird

  • 3:40

  • It's like a dubstep mix of Nude!

  • So cool! They purposely made the beginning a reverse of the ending part. notice how in the backwards one and non backwards ones, the ending and beginning are the same.

  • It's a musical palindrome.

  • @babbleintooblivion The chorus sounds exactly like the original in some parts, indeed it's a musical palindrome.

  • Amazing. The last bit is incredible. Wow!

  • i fell in love all over again. c':

  • would you mind reversing I Will for me, please? I can only find Like Spinning Plates reversed, but I wanna hear em both in reverse for comparison ;3

  • mind tricks. the music direction was minamalism and isn't meant to turn the song into a giant palindrome

  • Radiohead, you soiled my musicality with wowwwws, once again.

    G 3 N/0 U $ 3_S

  • I don't mean to piss anyone off, I'm just siting the original band that used reversal techniques in a song (the Beatles).

    I was obsessed with radiohead first, but later I became obsessed with the Beatles and after really listening to it, I can definitely see some techniques Radiohead utilized and evolved that the Beatles incubated. Music evolution is so interesting.

  • I can understand more of this than what thom normally sings ha

  • Radiohead=Genius

    

  • The last 30 seconds are so amazing!

  • You saved me the effort of having to work out how to do this, and it sounds good, even if the lyrics all became jibberish V:

  • @ParagonOfEvil Your smiley looks like a duck talking

  • Oh my god this is divine.

  • wow... this is the third band/musician that i have known to perfect the art of making a song still sound beautiful backwards, the other two are The Beatles and some other classical musician witch the name escapes me

  • So Thom Yorke is basically Bach.

  • Its a fairly symmetrical song

  • i love how 0:30 is basically the intro. i figured the actual intro was reversed somewhere in the song and could never put my finger on where. this is beautiful, thank you.

  • DAEHOIDAR - EDUN!

  • I thought I had an infinite respect for these guys... but infinity just doubled

  • Download link please? :)

  • Sounds like "Wake me, save me..." "I'm dying, wake my soul" "Reel in the fish line..." "Listen this once..." "I fly helplessly..." 

  • Its even PERFECT backwards.... <3 Radiohead - daehoidaR

    XD

  • if someone had told me this was the originl version, i totally would have bought it. gotta love radiohead <3

  • thanks /mu/ great find

  • Does that mean this version of the song is called Clothed?

  • @screamingOrganism wouldn't it just be called edun? haha

  • not only is this an amazing feat, its actually listenable too

  • WOW!! AWESOME!!

    

  • its like new song

    

  • Yeah, the last 30 seconds are really cool. i also thought the beginning of your video sounded much like the end of the original song.....very, very, cool!

  • @willchick Thats the point. The first 40 seconds of the song Nude is actually the ending of the song reversed.

  • Fucking Incredible.

    Now I can say that I like Radiohead so damn much, that I enjoy it just as much backwards as I do forwards XD

  • Truly amazing!

  • Soundss Like The Simss Sinqinq Lmaoo

  • Hah, I actually just thought of this. Awesome!

  • The reason it sounds so cool backwards is that the music is palandromic which is one of the reasons it works so well, Radiohead are amazing

  • It's like they intended it to sound like this backwards.

    Sounds really cool, if alittle incoherent :)

  • it's amazing, some of it backwards sounds exactly like it being played forwards...

  • I had my suspicions too so I looked for a reversed version to see if anyone thought the same! It turns out they did :D

  • That's great!

  • thats amazing. its the exact same backwards and forwards

  • Whoa, so it was playing backwards in the actual song?!

  • sweet, thom had the same idea

  • Radiohead backwards = Sigur rós

  • If you like this you should check out Alban Berg's opera, Lulu. Now that is an impressive piece of work!

  • wow Radiohead can never be crap even if we try

  • If you like @heatherlime's idea, search "Radiohead - Nude (Paradox Mix)"

  • holly crap backwards is like the same tune going forwards

  • reminds me of pulk/ pull revolving doors

  • That is kind of amazing.

  • Thumbs up if you have listened to this and the original AT THE SAME TIME.

  • @heatherlime - it's Interesting. :')

  • That's pretty cool

  • That's pretty cool

  • Everytime I hear this I think of Bjork, especially at 1:15

  • On the official Radiohead - In Rainbows guitar tab book which I bought, it says 'backwards guitar loop' under instruments in Nude.

  • Freakin' awesome, tried it myself too, I wonder if it was meant to be?

  • thats sigur ros! lol sounds just like that gibberish Jonsi sings

  • At the beginning of the song it's played backwards (the origingal that is) But on this it doesn't sound the same as the outro

  • Radiohead. Now equally awesome backwards.

  • I was smoking weed and realized this too! :D

  • I noticed the intro was the same as the outro first timei heard the song. i kept listening to it the entire day

  • sounds exactly like sigur ros :)

  • WOW. I can't really articulate in words what I mean, but this song always made me feel like it was communicating something musically apart from what the lyrics are saying. Something about the paradoxical nature of hope versus determinism or SOMETHING. I don't know.

    Now, come to find out that the end is the beginning reversed and the beginning is the end reversed LOL. Amazing. It really subliminally makes the song more powerful imo. I think I sensed this was the case without realizing it.

  • is it saying anything?

  • it's similar like sigur ros's staralfur. you're "almost" got the same song when you reversed it

  • awesome idea

  • Amazing. You know, if they wrote appropriate lyrics, this song could be very emotional. It could be titled, 'Edun'.

  • hey this is really cool. how did you find this?

  • @TheP0e

    I had my suspicions when listening to the CD. I reversed the audio file and was wowzered as to what I found and decided to share

  • @Flid666 lol, wowzered. I had no idea what to expect until I realized I was hearing... what I expected. Which was unexpected!

  • VERY nice find!

  • 2:20 and 2:32 sounds like "weeeeeiiiird fishes"

  • @radioivan18

    I think it sounds more like "fishing line"

  • The best part about it being backwards is the beginning (the end forwards) sounds awesome.

  • i thought the same things when i was listening to it!

    haha i went and reversed it on audacity and it sounded awesome so i searched it to see if anyone else had.

    it sounds almost cooler backwards. cool video man

  • I'm a woman, and thanks! :)

  • There are no women on the internet.

  • @Flid666 cool video, woman! :)

  • after watching this, it's no wonder why this band is full of musical geniuses

  • no shit, thats nifty

  • It's even beautiful backwards

  • True!

  • wow

  • holy shit...

  • beautiful

  • The ending is the begining backwards, sick.

  • yeah i just figured this out today xD i always wondered why the beginning of Nude sounded so cool. I always thought they just took different chopped up bits and put em 'randomly', not the ending in reverse xD

    Was trying to just sync up the ending and the beginning backwards right now, failed, and found this here on Youtube. Oh, good enough for me xD

    Wonder why not too many people have seen this video.

  • wow that was cool

  • well... the second part of this video (the ending) is the opener on the album track i.e. the ending played backwards. the vocals at least, not sure about the music. its at about 38 seconds in, you can hear the part being played forward at the end of this backwards version at the end of this video.

  • U are absolutely rite. Twisted words is similar.

  • Ow... I thought this was going to be another bullshit video about playing songs backwards and listening to the devils` voice... but it turned out to be something really interesting!

  • haha thanks :) just sharing this :)

  • You know what...Radiohead might very well be the smartest band out there today. I can't think of another band as experimental but pleasantly listenable as the 'head.

  • The only thing i can think of is Pink Floyd. His music was way ahead of his time.

  • Wow! how comes this isn't like a really popular video

  • because youtubers and most humans in general are idiots and disregard the really good stuff so that they can fill themselves with pointless music like the pussycat dolls :p

  • @Vegannibal dont dis the pussy cat dolls :O They are god's equivalent

  • immense

  • they just started the first 30 seconds of the song with one of the outtakes they had player in reverse

  • Did you watch the last 30 seconds?

  • yups i checked it out as soon as in rainbows come out, it sounds great! but its not that hard to do

    sigur ros have a song where if you reverse the main part it plays exactly the same forwards and backwards which is really cool

    :)

  • if you use pro tools for the mac it really enables you to do stuff like this(if you have the vision), you can highlight a small part of the song and reverse it, and do all kinds of crazy shit

  • I have no Idea how they did it but there is one thing I know ... Radiohead are amazing =]

  • wow! thats insane! how the hell did they manage that??

  • That's awesome, i don't think a better band exists.
