thank you for this wonderful vid... The united states sucks in having quality concert footage, NO MATTER WHAT THEY SAY>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> thanks......
@MCshlthead Oh good. I thought I was the only one who preferred these early raw versions.... I loved the original version of "Lift" too... but they got away from that...
i only took a year of piano in college but thom has inspired me to take it up again. His stuff is genius yet technically simple. But all great art is that.
clapping can be OK for certain songs, but please... obviously it was a shit idea for THIS SONG if the clap lasted like 10 seconds and people can't even keep beat. :/
to be more ontopic, i love this song (and awesome recording!) God, i got so excited as he was singing the higher notes, like, amazing. Want. Want. Want. Want.
I hate when people clap along, it reminds me of shitty school concerts with aul biddys gettin into some religious song, and they never reach the end of the song anyway so why bother??? I know some people must enjoy it but I always think it's just embarassing
I wasn't talking to you. It just fucks up the song when people clap. I hate it even when I go to shows. Even when I play a show the people clap and it makes it hard to concentrate on playing the music I'm trying to play. I don't see you playing music. If you were in a band and people did it you would understand why it's so fucking annoying.
I do play music thanks, I've been in bands and people clapping along is a great feeling, seeing people enjoy the music you've created. It's not hard to concentrate if you know your songs well enough. Audience interaction is one of the great parts of a gig, maybe you'd prefer to stay home and listen to a CD? And who exactly were you talking to if not the viewers of this video? As someone who's clapping away somewhere in this video I didn't see a problem with replying to your comment!
I do interact with the audience, but clapping along to the music is just pointless and just fucks up the sound. I say this as a concert-goer and a musician. I don't see the point in clapping to live music. I don't see how it's fun or cool, it's just obnoxious.
Fair enough. I only join in with existing claps, I'm not one to start them. I've never seen any harm though, bands quite often prompt it, including Radiohead.
Well, I guess I could see why people would clap to Radiohead or something like that(I like Radiohead by the way), but I play punk and when people clap to that, it just makes no sense. I guess that's what I was trying to say.
I was all like you before, insulting everything eles and only saying radiohead rocks, (it's easy to see with my name), but now i still know radiohead is the best, problem is it's only the best for me, noone else at school or whereever listens to it, except maybe for creep and Karma police. choices are what choices are.
this song made me explode way too early. my girlfriend was pissed. now she wont let me listen to radiohead because they make me jizz in like 2 minutes
I think it's because Ireland is Thom Yorke's favourite country in the world ever. No really, it is. He likes it so much that he pretends not to mind when the drunks (myself included) start to obnoxiously clap when he's trying to publish a new heartfelt song. He even pretended he liked the clapping towards the end. He floats down the Liffey? So there you have it: Thom loves Ireland. More than all your countries. :P
Regardless of the fact that Radiohead is better (which I agree with), Muse has almost nothing in common musically with Radiohead. So Matt Bellamy also has a falsetto, WOW! The similarities pretty much end there. I hate it when people compare the two.
i've read that they will be in the studio soon! great news, along with a summer tour..i hope they come close to me! cheers everyone, have a great day!
Hey... How could you? :> I love the guitars :( They all grew up on guitars (and some of them grew up on mixing each others crayons ^^) Piano is making me tremble but guitars are also wicked.
Nah, i disagree. Just look at Like Spinning plates, or Everything in its Right Place. A lot for their songs are piano based. A lot of new ones are based around the ondes martenot.
i agree. listen to pyramid song. or video tapes awesome songs then listen to my iron lung or you.. all awesome songs all so much different. thats why they are on the same level as MUSE which maybe no other band on the planet can say they are.. to be that talented
i dont believe that. i think any good band doesn't dream about sounding like anyone else but themselves. the good bands are good because they are different from any other band. they may have the same genre but can be very different
well I was mocking what TheHoodedBastard said, since he made it sound like this song had put radiohead on the level of muse, as if muse had ever been better than radiohead (as if it wasn't ludicrous to compare the two bands considering how different their music is). My sarcasm was probably not conveyed appropiately due to the limitations of text. Also when I said "let's not forget who is the shadow of the other" i obviously meant that muse was radiohead's shadow. so stop thumbing me down dammit.
Seriously? Where the hell do you people get the idea that Radiohead follows either Muse or Coldplay? Both bands came after RH, have said to be enormous fans, it shows in their music and neither of them ever get close to Radiohead's level of variation, sophistication, and LYRICS.
I know that, my response was directed at thehoodedbastastard for reasons unimportant, but with the purpose of sarcasm. I don't dislike muse, but like you, I realize they have nothing on radiohead. As a matter of fact, pretty much no modern band has got anything on radiohead anymore.
muse is the best ROCK band today.. whereas radiohead is better overall.. but of course radiohead fans couldnt ever go low as rock... as easy as it is to imply that early muse copied radiohead, i can also say that "the bends's" radiohead copied Buckley.. thom went to a gig before releasing the bends and thats when he started with the falsetto... or i could say latter radiohead sounds like aphex twin...
i dont think any of these statements is true.. or even.. i dont care, because theyre doing music that i profusely like and can get connected sentimentaly with... but that is why i beg you to start bashing bands for having influences... Even when it is understandable that you think muse sounds like radiohead, they never plagiarized so why bother on being a jerk?
are you fucking my ass right now? you are such a cunt.. you know nothing. radiohead is based on so many different instruments, you coould impregnate a mexican village before counting them all... bam. fucked in the mouth
shut up you stupid little wanker. im talking about what the songs primarily compose of, i know they use many instruments but the majority of their stuff is guitar based. FACT 4 out of their 7 albums are 99% written on guitar, as for kid a, amnesiac and httt they have a lot of piano/keyboard based songs but some are still guitar songs.
knives out, go to sleep, there there, in limbo, optimistic, to name a few.
Thom singing over the lone piano makes it so pure.. sounds like a mix between fog(again) and last flowers.. but more upbeat and optimistic. (who says RH can't do optimistic?)
Can't wait for their new album to come out! Radiohead always =)
Don't even blaspheme by saying this is Coldplay. Colplay sound lke a fucking special needs class who've been thrown a piano and told to sing about their "feelings", with one domineering spaz (Martin) who takes creative control.
ditto fergusto. even at their worst, radiohead arent capable of sounding as poppy and dull as coldplay. this is a pretty good song, i hope they do develop and record it
tiene un gran potencial la cancion,quisiera escucharla con toda al banda creo que le hace falta trabajarla mas aun y se que sera otra gran obra de thom johnny y compañia
