  • What the heck is wrong with these people????!!!!!!!!!!

  • God definitely touched Thom

  • in 2012 You cant listen a concert without stupid morron who talk, who dont respect the singer and the audience. It's sad. It's this fucking world but those genius like TY are still there in order to bring us some hope.

  • I loved this song from 'In Rainbows' probably my fave tbh but if I was a Director and my film wasn't shite this would be going in!! Was blown away when I watched Confessions. JP ok.

  • It actually makes me feel a little better as a performer.... Just knowing that even Thom Yorke sometimes must feel like he's on an island all by himself singing for the peanut gallery. The fact that it's not a Radiohead show, and is a benefit concert makes me think that some people don't know who the #### he is or why they should care.

    Sort of like every time I play a show. Unless you pander to their easy-listening tastes, you are not going to impress the average crowd.

  • i cant beleive, people are there in the audionce , talking and not watching and giving a shit, the most amazing artist is doing one of his most amazing songs!!, whta planet are you on peeps!!!!

  • I first listened to this on the In Rainbows Cd, but I thought it really sounded like the OK Computer era sound.

  • @ymirfrostgiant

    Good ear! It was first worked on by the band during the OK Computer sessions in 1996 (and even rehearsed during soundchecks in 1997), but they didn't like the results and it was shelved for years.

  • como desearia estar ahi ...

  • the comments are funny.... thom deserves better crowd rather than this.

    awesome song. i think of it as a continuation from where karma police left off

  • That crowd should stop talking and be more in awe of Thom Yorke

  • Such a nice chill venue. Almost like a coffee shop, just perfect.

  • 333333 view am I asdf

  • You guys are stupid. If you've had a few pints you chat with your best friends, you know to make the most of the epic experience. Shows are long and people love to check each others reactions to know how to react accordingly/appropriately. You stand up and you go into a private room to relieve your bladder.

    It's not YOU but its everyone on youtube's commenting boards who always react the same way whenever a treasured preformer is combatting the next table over from whoevers rec. Relax.

  • fucking damn whores in the audience that have no idea what they are seeing,

    just sit back and listen fucking whores, sit back and listen... sluts, whores , whatever you are... I hope you all die soon , with a stick in the ass

  • 2:00 Why the hell would she leave during a fucking THOM YORKE performance? Crazy.

  • @LisaMackXx : maybe because it was too much, too powerful for her ...

  • @LisaMackXx maybe she was shiting her pants xD

  • What's truly sad is that any of us (those of us commenting on how completely disgusted we are with the almost blasphemous chattering audience) would've given a limb to have been in this intimate setting and seen this... yet the people who were lucky enough to be there thought talking was more important. I think people should have a damn mute button :(

    Still a gorgeous performance nonetheless...

  • the lyrics in the description are wrong somewhere...

  • you have to feel sorry for thom here- he must know hes genius and the people just ignore it. - or maybe hes glad there doing their own thing because hes content doing his

  • FUCK everyone in that audience that is chatting during this performance , if i was there i would have went to jail for mass murder of an ungrateful fucking audience ..Disrespecting the greatest , must talented performer ever known to man , wdf is wrong with people ,.

  • @dutchmade89 absolutely

  • Y con esa voz es como Thom se volvió mi amor platónico... hermoso!

  • I'm glad I wasn't there...........I would've had about 27 lawsuits

  • I would say that there is constant chatter during the entire performance, it's annoying enough on YouTube, 10x as annoying when you are there...same F'n thing happened to us at Aaron Lewis acoustical tour at the Sugarmill in NoLa, it was St. Patricks Day (which didn't help) & the crowd would not shut the f/up...my gf & I do not drink, so it was heartbreaking...in my opinion it's the alcohol that instigates this...peeps think they're in a nightclub w/a dj spinning instead of a live performance..

  • Excuse me but i seem to be oblivious to what the audience is doing that is pissing every1 off, i guess im just lost in the beautiful music that Thom is playing, can som1 tell me what is going on?

  • @xtheparanoidandroid It's the relatively quiet murmer of noise you hear from the audience that is what i think everyone is talking about. At a gig it is obviously worse, and i agree it is annoying. It's on par with the person in front, beside, or behind you talking throughout while you are at the cinema watching a movie.

  • an audience almost full of ignorant people - sadly how the rest of the world.

  • i want the tabs for this. does anyone knows where to find?and i mean this version not the studio

  • love

  • Everyone in the audience deserves to be ran over with a bus.

    With Thom driving it.

  • undeserving crowd!

  • c'est bien d'avoir chanter cette chanson dans un hopital ^^

  • This song is dedicated to Towelie.

  • Cuz I can't face the evening straight.

  • If I was there listening to this, i couldn't care less who it was, i would listen to it. It's such a nice song! I hate those people for seeing this and not giving a shit...

  • "And if I'm gonna talk, I just wanna talk. Please don't interrupt; just sit back and listen."

    The crowd could do with actually paying some attention to that.

  • These people don't deserve to listen to Thom live

  • WHEN THOM IS GONNA A SING,HE JUST WANNA SING PLEASE DONT INTERRUPT FUC KING IDIOTS JUST SIT BACK AND LISTEN

  • simply beautiful...

  • I Love this on guitar.....Mmm.

  • dammit i would kill to find the ok computer version of this where did it go

  • sjws has the same life as me!!!

  • I don't know how Thom Yorke does it. His voice is the most unique instrument I've heard in my life, it's like a tractor beam of awesome-ness. But here I go again having a man crush on Thom Yorke.

  • Amazing how he can play this on piano or guitar. It still holds the same magic. This man is The Shiiiiet.

  • There was another version of the same performance, filmed from another angle but closer from Thom .. the sound and image quality was way better. Unfortunately the user have closed his Youtube account , anybody knows were I could find that other version ?

  • thank you so much for posting this!

  • still can't stop watching it --this video is becoming an old friend to me

  • I prefer the piano version

  • an introvert's dream

    6 billion people

    all surrounding me, every moment, blabbering

    when i come home

    tired from this world and its unlonliness

    only you can offer me escape

    only you, can lead me somewhere brighter, more powerful

  • I am addicted to watching this video

  • wow...thom yorke man...i dont even know, he hits you in the chest and doesnt stop...

  • iam happier to hear this song again

  • enserio me gusta demaciado esta cancion

    thom es lo mejor

    es todo

  • this song should be have 2 millions of views .

  • My god. I have never heard anything that good before. I have to go out and buy all of his stuff now. I haven't got a frickin' dime, spent my last 2 dollars on guitar string should have seen the teller's face when I withdrew 2.39 haha that was actually fun, but now I am going to have go get some money just for this guy He is BEYOND

  • noisy disresectfull pigs!! THATS FUCKING THOM YORKE PLAYING YOU BUNCH OF C**ts! HE'S SO WONDERFULL!!! just hear his sublime voice!!! I'm mesmerised!

    chestyx

  • Wow. His voice is just....wow. :o

  • beautiful - reminds me of my friend Liz!!! x

  • people looks like their dont care care bout thom!!!

  • i think the crowd noise almost adds to atmosphere and meaning of the song. it's about many things I'm sure but one of them for me is the fear of isolation, and the fear of not being able to sustain your love for someone

  • @TheBlackWelshman

    I like your comments. This song make me think of addiction. (I can't face the evening straight). The person is getting sober from ?heroin?. Sobriety is TOO BRIGHT TOO POWERFUL. The hospital is where the person needs to go to kick the drug. The narrator wishes their lover was enough to offer the same escape as the drug, but their love isn't enough and it is time to go kick the horse.

    This is what i think when I hear the song and it is one of my faves.

  • @irishbear76 definitely buddy, I have not personally gone through that but several of my absolute best friends in the world have, makes perfect sense, great analysis.

  • @TheBlackWelshman

    Thanks for the response. I have also thought maybe mental illness and the hospital takes on a different connotation. It is my understanding young Mr. Yorke was a psychiatric attendant.

  • I don't make comments but I love this it made me cry when I first heard it or 20th time, its just transcendant (spelled wrong probably). Why don't they do a tour really stripped, just an acoustic guitar, and it can be plugged in electrically and no tech devices and have piano, whatever else even if its a damn bango they would make it work...they are one true music assemble that are not over hyped or overated. and one step ahead. But can they please make one album in vain/spirit of the bends?

  • terrible idea on the unplugged thing, and no, they're not going to make another bends. haha i like your passion for the band and the song though. it's a gem. radiohead should rule the world.

  • @TheBlackWelshman

    hah, I was going to reply too, but you said everything I needed to say. Cheers!

  • @TheBlackWelshman lol I like how you said Radiohead should rule he world, because they should!

  • This is one of my favourites, this song made me want to cry when I first heard it. Radiohead is one of the only bands whose music has brought me to tears.

  • I WANT TO FUCKING DIEEEE!!!!! damnit! Radiohead rules meeeee! i think i know them one second and then the next they slap my face and tell me i dont know shit!!!!! oh god! i am not worthy of your awesomness Thom!!!!!

  • @beck3571

    hahaha +1

  • @beck3571

    +1

  • Comment removed

  • @beck3571 You are so right. Please kill yourself.

  • the crowd can suck my dick. they need to stfu

  • just wow such a talented bloke

  • so powerful

  • very nice. (I've always thought that most of Radiohead's stuff starts out with Thom and his acoustic. the rest thom and a keyboard.) I love the sound when he changes modes (the Dmajor-sus4 etc at the end), a typical RH move.

  • Actually a Amaj-sus4, but who's getting picky =P

  • yeah you're right, it is an A. the "niceness" is in the move from the minor to the major in any case

  • Music doesn't have to be complex to be interesting

    "Pandemonium44", it's the delivery that counts.

  • You're right, the delivery gives the music its feel. But I guess I prefer Radioheads later sound as I prefer Beatles later sound. But overall, it is all amazing.

  • This is pretty good, but the recording from the other camera is amazing.

  • But pre-Kid A isn't all that good. I like them all but their music on Kid A and after is the most complex and brilliant.

  • ok computer?????

  • yeah OK Computer is one of their best but I mean after OK Computer they went into dimensions no one has ever traveled before and... I think that is when they became the best band they had' ever been.

  • actually its tyhe opposite... i mean listen carefully to Idiotèque, Morning Bell, All I need, 15 Step, Knives out, House of Cards, Videotape...

    all those are basically a progression of the 2-4 same chords with shitloads of effects.

    Piling trippy tracks on some simple guitar riffs :) the ''Dark side of the Moon'' revolution!

  • the thing i love about thom yorke is he sounds even better live! gosh he is so amazing! wowowowowow. i mean wow.

  • i liked this song because it reminds me of the Pre Kid A Radiohead

  • That's because it is.

  • you make it sound like kid A sucks or what??if that's the case than I strongly disagree!

  • god id love to hear the guitar and piano played together for this song.

  • is this supposed to be on guitar or piano, the ending sounds really good on guitar

  • beautiful!

  • Why are so many people talking?!?!

  • Because they don't realize extraordinary talent when they hear/see it.

  • yaaa...i was wondering the same. in fact, there's a video in which thom talks to the audience about that...he says sth like :''if u wanna have a chat, fuck off outside, right?...'course you won't get back''

  • being that close to thom yorke i would've gone crazy

  • Bravo York!!!!!!!!!!!

  • This is one of the Classics of Radiohead. When it came out on In Rainbows, I played this song at least 50 times. A real gem.

  • I just learned what it means to "TROLL"

    Awesome, when you hate what people think or type you can call them a troll and then ban them from thinking. Even Youtube has Thought Police. Good Ol' Hate is alive and well in CyberSpace as well.

  • God is at work!  please don't interrupt!!!

    lucky punks!!!!!!!

  • goddamn it what i would have given to be there.

  • i have to say, the fact they may not be 'a radiohead audience' seems insignificant. can they not hear what is being played right in front of them? are they not fans of music? if i hadn't a clue who was on stage, and i was witness to this performance, i think i'd shut the fuck up (or just sit back) and listen.

  • they seem fairly receptive to me....but back to the point, Thom Yorke and Radiohead do indeed rock my socks.

  • @getbonus i think they are in shock! :D hahaha too much... too bright .. too powerfull! thom is amazing..

  • @getbonus agree, the fucking crowd doesnt know what the fuck they are facing...

  • she loves him she loves him

  • simplemente el mejor. Gracias por tan buena musica

  • Wow, this is the first time I've heard this song, he's such a brilliant musician, the lyrics are always so honest.

  • thom's a legend his songs are always amazing

  • This was taken at the Trade justice movement meeting / union in 2005. Its not a radiohead audience, so people are talking as half of them will probably not be a fan of Thom and Radiohead!!! Even thou i am!!! Love this version!

  • He made one mistake!!111 but seriously it's pretty nice maybe not as much as the piano but still damn nice!

  • Cool on guitar, maybe doesn't top the piano version but I can see myself being in the mood for this version.

  • if you take me there you'll get reeeliiiieeeeeeeeeeeeeeeffffff­ffff

  • no podemos hacer nada mas sino agradecer por tanta belleza

  • True Love Waits would have gone down much better.

  • To all those who didn't knew this song, u can find it on the 2nd cd of In Rainbows (not a live version, a studio version). :) It's excellent!

  • piano version is better, but that doesnt justify the audience to act like idiots here.

  • yeah

    but that makes it even better

  • i dont understand... why are they acting like idiots? really, i didnt see it... tell me

  • the opportunity to chat with friends happens all the time. the opportunity to listen to thom yorke playing new songs in a live and intimate acoustic show is about as common as getting struck by a bolt of lightening. "idiots" may be a bit harsh, but if i had been lucky enough to be there i would have savored the performance and saved my chatting for later.

  • yeah seriously. when i saw radiohead live, it was outdoor with thousands of people and im pretty sure no moved around the entire time. and here hes playing in such a small place, and even the lady right in the front keeps leaving.

  • This is very good! Didn't knew this song though. Thom's amazing.

  • I am in the process of wasting my teenage years smoking weed and listening to radiohead. im actually quite happy.

  • enjoy it while you can ...

  • been there done that. enjoy it dude

  • God bless the grass.

  • Whilst we've done it, I don't quite relise that your teenage years go on till 25

  • @sjws Seriously??? Me too! Much love.

  • @sjws amen

  • @sjws =)

  • @sjws sir, I approve and therefore like you.

  • @sjws ILL DRINK TO THAT BROTHER

  • @sjws wanna chill sometime haha

  • @sjws I did that but it wasn't a total waste because I am now a musician and I think I have a pretty good ear.

  • @sjws That's my life explained in a whole right there.

  • your lyrics arent 100%

  • ta logia einai perita.apla kataplikto.

  • bravo re file afta ine radiohead tpt allo apla kataplixtikoi

  • allos ena elinas radiohead 9aumastis! Bravo! auta einai (:

  • Relief q gran cancion!

  • amazing.

  • dios... lo ke hace este hombre con la voz...

    too much..

    too bright

    too powerful....

  • He is a brave performer at least, and deserves more recognition.

  • and that's what I said.

    it's just awesome what he does with his voice...

  • that's what I meant.

    it's just awesome what he does with his voice.

  • Well, yes, of course!

  • Thom Yorke. . .

  • After reading some of the comments here, I feel rather embarassed to be such an avid Radiohead fan. (ie, killing audience members, worshipping Thom as the almighty, etc)

    If I were Thom or any of the other guys, I'd be downright scared.

  • il ech a la lebro mesa el cokoniki lu de falla bruick foo tatla la jeniuosela?

  • is this even possible? He's not human. Obviously those people don't know whose presence they're in.

  • very song  ilove music

  • I like how he changes songs up by playing them on different instruments. like this one is usually on piano

  • este tema me hace llorar en mala T_T

  • Hey, cannabisabuser! The problem is that those people can't aprreciate, how big talent he is.. Emotionless, hollow people, in a wrong place at the wrong time. Yuck.

  • some of the things you people write about Thom Yorke are creepy as fuck...and i mean the fans

  • Why the fuck are the people talking?!?!?!?! Thom Yorke is singing, can't they fucking hear?

  • theres no believe just relief

  • the song is about drug abuse.

    there are two sides to the conversation

    the drugs are personified and are talking to him when he says " if you take me there you'll get relief"

  • Thom himself has said that it's a completely non-sensical song

  • well, that doesn't mean that it is non-sensical in fact ;)

    And yes, it's a shame to be talking while god is singing

  • lmao

  • disrespectful creeps! talking while he is singing, I like this song because his voice goes so high, its so clean..

    I want to get relief!

    I wonder if hes ever thought of suicide.

  • i agree, only pure retarded losers with no taste or any tiny speck of respect to great music would talk while Thom Yorke plays! it is even a VIGIL ! i want to work for Thom, snipe people off when they start talking!

  • yesssss! I like most of his songs

    How would you get to him?...there is always a way! hehe..

    Do you play some instrument or sing? = )

  • just send him a million emails till he talks back! :) or just enjoy his music ... i can not sing, i play the violin.
