Sparklehorse and Radiohead - Wish You Were Here

[UrinationNation]

This was so miserable, I really don't get it, I would like to understand, but whenever I hear sparklehorse I think, why do people collaborate with this person, I mean there must be something there and I must just be blind to it. Maybe I just don't believe him when he sings these words, but in general it all sounds so lackluster and yet forced. As I said I'm sure I'm wrong, but this just does nothing for me.

[wolfmetal22666]

where in Tom Yorke sings?

[fakeplasticsoldier]

Annoying video...kinda distracts from the good music

[89arnburg]

RIP- Mark Linkous. Radiohead....Keep rocking

[bianka173]

so this is sparklehorse with thom yorke covering a pink floyd song?

[RISEANDBREAKING]

I cant see the video, is just horrible! DD: I really dont like it, I cry every time I see it!

[RISEANDBREAKING]

Rest in peace Mark Linkous !

[yuh66h]

If you are wearing headphones you will feel like mark is whispering "Wish you were here" into your ear, a couple times near the end...Its quite haunting to be honest but very beautiful at the same time

[Krintok]

@yuh66h I can hear it, it's quite haunting..

Why did Linkous have to go and kill himself... why?

[skaterdean0]

@Krintok I ask myself that every month or so ... his voice goes right through my soul.

[maudyapon]

Writer: WATERS/NELSON/JONES So, so you think you can tell Heaven from Hell, Blue sky's from pain. Can you tell a green field From a cold steel rail? A smile from a veil? Do you think you can tell? And did they get you to trade Your heroes for ghosts? Hot ashes for trees? Hot air for a cool breeze? Cold comfort for change? And did you exchange A walk on part in the war For a lead role in a cage?

[BananaSplitPROD]

what effect peadls are used on the eletric guitar????

[spitfirefrench]

jeeeezus why all the fucking depressed people coming over here and bringing my good vibe down

[lagundafire]

that dog at the end is so sooo so cute.

[bohemianbeagle]

This is such a beautiful video.

[1005MYBABY]

5:20 - 7:10 is so beautiful

[ProfessorPatriot]

RIP Cooper Fredo Larsh

[mizaelmorais]

This is our life...

[graciousjuanitou]

06:05 - 07:10 The Best Part Of The Song

[lockestain10]

I'm feeling real.

[AirWaterLandBuffalo]

This is beautiful.

[TThirdplaneTT]

We love and miss you Mark. So sorry you had to go.

[shawnwiggidy]

great video...makes u think....was just watching Lords of dogtown for the 1000 time...n decided to play this....we cant change the world, until we change ourselves....

[jmyg93]

what does it say from the minute 5:07?

[wolfmetal22666]

@jmyg93

I think it says "Well, I love you" but he says in Spanish

"Well but, I love you" - In spanish is : "Bueno, pero yo te amo"

[ashbal30]

This is Mark Linkous(Sparklehorse) featuring Thom Yorke for the "Lords Of DogTown" Soundtrack. 2005. ( Thom Yorke sang his part on the telephone from his hotel room where you can hear his TV in the background).

[DoYouDigItNow]

I just wish the injustice would stop.

[MrDiem95]

missing you bro!!...



[zizouism]

a very depressing video & a grim reminder to everyone that all is not well and perfect in our world... we are so easy to forget & turn blind to all the pain and sufferings... we need to change our world right now.

[leobaboun]

This video and song made mi insides a tea of tears and sadness. Makes you feel REAL.

[47ALANROCK]

No puedo decidirme por cual versión radiohead o pink floyd ambas me fascinan D:

[intotheriver9]

One of my favorite covers ever. This particular video is chilling, too... the dog at the end always makes me tear up.

[jrfuent]

who's jair?

[sweentnhot0104]

I wish God gives me a second chance.

I wish I could get to see my Grandma again.

I wish I would've known then to love her more, to express my love more, to give her thanks and understand how valuable she's been to me.

I wish I would've just known what I know now then.

Unfortunately, there is no second chance.

But I wish I would live nice enough to meet her in heaven.

[wiliuzl]

far far from great original from Pink Floyd.

[yivkeh]

Wish you were here,Phoenix Chou.

[yivkeh]

a great song,a great video.

[sentheband]

This is not Radiohead cover !!

RIP Sparklehorse,amazing gives u the chills.

[acm1pt546]

i hate the world

[patricklove]

@SeXYweStY01 is awareness enough? What have you done?

[femmemina]

[kittyfeeshe]

[letragique909]

Jair on 18 .04 . 2011 its gonna be 7 years since you left this world

7 years since the horror get into my life

7 years since my life change completly

7 years since I wake up I dont know Who I am

where I am or why I'm here....

7 years since all faces passed and no one its different...

man I MISS YOU. I MISS YOU SO MUCH..IT HURTs..I SWEAR IT HURTS...

7 years since the pain arrives and till today continues...

GOD TELL WHY I JUST WANNA KNOW, PLEASE...Why?

Bro I WISH YOU WERE HERE...thats it

[nileakanile]

@letragique909 you know what went to your sadness... 7 years by saosin

[amicusLUCIS]

Tears and shivers. And I couldn't find any reasons for thumbing it down...

[GUTTENSEITEN]

it seems to scape many that the message of this specific version is the LACK of human compassion, the lack of the human potential for good from our so called civilization: where is compassion? I wish you were here.

[DanielVieiraGuitar]

he said blue skies from RAIN instead of PAIN --'

[anononomos]

I was thinking about Mark today, and what his music did to me.

I missed you enough to cry a little. RIP.

"However, if we discover a complete theory, it should in time be understandable by everyone, not just by a few scientists. Then we shall all, philosophers, scientists and just ordinary people, be able to take part in the discussion of the question of why it is that we and the universe exist. If we find the answer to that, it would be the ultimate triumph of human reason -- for then we should know the mind of God." - Stephen Hawking

[RevDrDark]

Worthy; worthy. Thank you for this wonderful homage.

[mavs2147]

I actually shed a tear because of this video. Seeing the best and worst of humanity.. It just brings out the beauty of life and and it's something very deep. Hard to explain.

[myelfenohr]

sooooo cool! love it!!!!!

[turtle2879]

I love the way they put this cover together...for the first time since I've heard this song someone other than Pink Floyd made it their own...I'm going to miss Mark...he was a genius

[GobleenEl4]

..

[Mrkoppa]

We are such a fucking cruel race

[stoopidryan8]

It's a sad and beautiful world

[lNDlFFERENCE]

RIP, Mark.

[ScottSkent]

The things we consider foreign, and the things we consider domestic. The things we consider acceptable, and the things we consider unacceptable. The things we do, and the things we don't. We are all beautiful, and we are all fucking disgusting.

[gfiftyfive]

As a lover of all living creatures, I couldn't watch the whole thing.. had to skip through parts... but God, I'm glad it ended with LOVE.

[pklip001]

wow great video man...i like the ending although i was half expecting someone to club that dog to death

[wordthatscool]

powerful video well bound to an amazing rendition of a great song

[Acara23]

quest for fire

[alva1031]

[nickkkamylase]

I kind of threw up in my mouth at 3:38.

[dirkbogar]

I f#cking love this!!!!!!!

[ugandancaucasian]

this video is incredibly depressing.

[nikossiokas]

4:06 Oh what tha hell....thank you for your share june...

[joeisaflyingfish]

Mark and Syd are currently sitting together sipping tea and discussing us mere mortals.

[DrunkWithCandy]

I want this song to play at my funeral.

[olelolei]

@DrunkWithCandy  me too!

[agoooha]

I love the original PF version, but that's masterpiece though..

[theogger]

Wish you were here, indeed

[rayofsun123456]

[ricorreze]

This is Art

[ricorreze]

As about as truthful chronicle of where we are as a species as you're gonna find.

[menschmeier1985]

"The lead singer killed himself a couple months ago... "

Shit shit shit, I#m so sorry now :(

[AnonimoABestia]

Damn they raped the song. May the spirit of true rock live on forever \m/

[busterr33]

great vid to great song!!!!!

[raineydazes420]

this is the only cover of this song that strikes me the same as the original.

[descarogo77]

@jorgek92

Cuanto mas estupido sos vos Jorgek92 que te tomas el trabajo de traducir lo que yo digo.... quien es mas estupido?... el estupido que habla... o el estupido que lo escucha?....

Traducime eso tambien Jorgito.

[theunraveler]

wat is this video about?

[DSilsbury]

@theunraveler The video is designed to make you think. It catches those moments you either see everyday and ignore or the ones you never see. If you're asking WHATS IT ABOUT???? I don't know

[676bun]

cant believe he's gone :(

its so sad... wish he was here.

[sinhilo2020]

te odio jipi

[MonroeCt]

WOW!! Thank you for sharing this! 

[Apuyina]

Nice, with a sweet end

[phatht]

made me miss Mark Linkous even more...

[liamfeb27]

How many times i said to you, i wish you where here, surly it be like heaven, a nice green field we can run, our lives are very sad sometimes... very angry and sorrow so long... but when i think of you, i remember that picture about you holding a little baby, i feel we where just one bird sharing the same pair of wings to fly to heaven... it be nice if we could search happiness...

is not difficult that we can be happy... i know it... i have feel that what others don't want to feel...

[ajrabello]

WISH YOU WERE HERE TOO

[egglab]

i wish you were here Mark, RIP.

[Greenbeing9]

@egglab jim goad is a faggot

[MrMax050291]

Dude this video makes me feel so bad...

[eze0991]

only radiohead can make this cover :')

[Deoxysdog]

I heard Thom sang the part over the phone =P

[SOMAN1983V]

Ś.P. / R.I.P. Mark

dlaczego tak i po co to było ?

[sasugade]

It's the best selection.

[theantibodie]

The song is lovely. The video is a *bit* harsh!!! I'd much rather commemorate the wonderful artist that Mark Linkous was with something other than gruesome images.

[BrendanOC]

Mark,

Think about the good times, never the bad...

You made great music with some amazing people. We're proud of you, where you are.

Peace. Love and Empathy

[DatGUEnvy]

R.I.P Mark Linkous

[braydenbeautiful]

R.I.P buddy.

You will be missed here on Earth, friend.

[BrendanOC]

RIP

fucked up way to go, think about the good times man, not the bad, god speed wherever you go

[weRindierokkers]

god this video is depressing

[mashamaryna]

R.I.P. Mark

[Mirouw]

so sad to hear you left us... RIP and thanks for your infuance....

[drasnagrof]

Rest in Peace T_T

[v2petras]

RIP .....................

[BooBooGlue1]

I listen to his music every morning...........

if you don't know mark as a artist or friend... such a loss & the hurt.......

[ellogoods]

Like all great artists- Mark made this song his own changing the tone and texture of this great Pink Floyd song completely- so much more of an interpretation than a cover. I can truly say that in my mind and heart these two different versions do not compete but exist completely apart from each other. I love them both equally- (just like I love my kids all the same).

Super Sjarel says it best-

[dan32113]

@ellogoods listen to rodrigo y gabriela version from glastonbury.

[ellogoods]

@dan32113

cool will check it out

[iamjacksdisplayname]

@ellogoods nailed it!

[emags]

RIP mark.

[SuperSjarel]

Wish you where here Mark. Rest in peace

[maclennan73]

@SuperSjarel Yes, I wasn't totally surprised at the news, but he really was one of the good guys, surely Simon Cowell finds it hard to live sometimes I wish he'd been tempted instead!

[menschmeier1985]

@SuperSjarel

Who should RIP????

[Seeckay]

@menschmeier1985 The lead singer killed himself a couple months ago...

[onethirtybpm]

RIP Mark

[martinpitydios]

Esta version no le llega ni a los pies a la de calamaro. Es una mierda este tema!!

[EddyKeitch]

@martinpitydios Claro!!! Ese gran cantante. JAJAJAJAJAJa

[steak4Chiken]

Is this the official video? It's so beautiful. I nearly cried.

[kingofthephonies]

This is the best attempt to cover Floyd, but its still not as good as the original.

[telswood]

I totally agree with you, but like someone above me said - when a good artist does a cover, they turn it into a different song whilst still paying homage. In that respect, this cover is phenomenal.

[DalilahBlevins]

PINK FLOYD ALL THE WAY.

[shoegazer66]

wow the most beautiful moving thing ive seen in a long time it takes two great bands to relive the floyd

[toshmund]

Don't know if it is a sad indictment on me, but I tend to feel more sympathy for the animal kingdom nowadays. Video kind of covers all the bases and emotions, but still makes you think "what a sh1tty little world man has created!?" at the end.

[JobForAColton]

not really following the video..at all

the skinny kid was sad but thats about it lol

[Killdozer77]

Good cover. Heavy video but at least the end was sort of happy.

[CatAngel77]

There's no words for this.

I'm crying like a child, now.

[lara17fxs]

this song is beautiful

awesome

i love this song

but....

it makes me feel so bad

:(

T.T

aaaa

good video

.....

[Popelinna]

Awesome... u.u

[50jordbaer]

This is breaking my heart.

[Scott17quebec]

I almost cried at Thom's part. I noticed he wasn't singing any verse, just saying ''wish you where here...'' with strange sounds in backward. I smiled when in notice it, cause theres no one else than thom to do such a good thing :P

[hunnixox13]

the sounds in the background is actually coming from the tv in his hotel room. thom just recording his part over the phone.

[Scott17quebec]

I already know that.

[steak4Chiken]

Wow, really? That's pretty cool.

[Sivinni]

This song an this interpretation really touches me :-)

[mindtrippp]

touch my hearth dude!!!!!!!!!!

[longitudes]

smile from from them, can you think you can tell ?

[frosty418]

A smile from a veil?

Do you think you can tell?

[robcee2k]

Awesome song, Sad video.:(

[sebasthechecka]

This is soooooo aweesome!!
