Radiohead-Subterranean Homesick Alien

[indicat33]

I'm a subterranean homesick alien waiting to be rescued from this silly place

[uajahv]

Great job one of the better amateur music videos I have seen!

[Spaceisneat]

@uajahv you are so sweet.. thank you so much :D

[flauwegeit]

Finally .. a good sounding youtube video . bravo !

[gennatnic]

uptight, uptight...

[hanl9889]

Best song on OKC.

[Akcufathom]

while listening to this for the first time, i was on the highway, driving along and all of a sudden, the absurd reality i always lived in seemed to make perfect emotional poetic sense. all of a sudden i hear a siren, pull over, lower the music and the cop walks up to me. stares me strait in the face and says "you were going 80" i tried to hand him my lic. n reg. but he refused to take them and said "your off the hook if you tell me the name of that song your listening to". thnx radiohead....

[jimmymortis]

@Akcufathom Was it just swag or was it chronic?

[lxm7]

sunny day outside on my own, cut grass, washed dishes sweet gig played last night, coming out of a hang over into this...

[LevelFire]

Phil's drumming is just gorgeous on this

[Davis18045]

Hey, visit a video called " boredom until tv". It's awesome!

[ScenesFromPalacio]

Fantastic atmospheric video for this beautiful song dude...Superb..:)

[irishbear76]

Sound is great.

I will listen to Radiohead and watch your shadow walk around all day.

[navmantogo]

Great video.....superb.

[Spaceisneat]

@navmantogo thanks alot... :D

[doctorbombay]

Just wondering if it is getting tough for radiohead to bring all the angst of their songs to the stage still after all these years......night after night.....seems a little mentally taxing and overwhelming to do so.........just a thought........by the way, love this song!!

[MSXXY69]

Aah I love songs about space.This reminds me so much of Pink Floyd's Echoes. The single random notes.. and Space Oddity, the sentiment is so similar.. Although this makes me feel a lot more suicidal. In a beautiful, surreal way.

[Giaculatorie]

ahah great idea...i love you

[silentalarmed]

With all the hits its easy to forget the rest of what made OK computer amazing. Love every song.

[rhod2k9]

any1 who enjoys this has a good taste in music!

[AmazingPurpleCat]

@HEVYprgmwar Yes I know ithe figure is holding a camera, that's why I said it looks like it's crying. I'm just interpreting what I see in alternative ways.

[blica1]

they are this generation's pink floyd...just as pink floyd's manager stated in a BBC interview..just brilliant !

[bikerboy2791]

the beginning is cool, but it gets kinda monotonous after a minute or two. maybe some changes in tempo/setting and/or addition of color, perhaps starting with select objects then transitioning to the full scene? especially with the frenetic chorus? keep up the good work.

[betterfok]

Awesome!!!!!!

[AmazingPurpleCat]

In the first bit with the shadow it looks a bit like the figure is crying.

(arms raised up to face)

[Spaceisneat]

@AmazingPurpleCat it weeps for humanity....

[basspole]

@Spaceisneat how come it has to be for humanity? why cant she weep because she's sad? why do people constantly have to make things so deep and profound?

btw, her hands are by her face cause shes holding a camera. i mean really...didnt you ever just want to be gone? not because of humanity but because of just being sad? stop trying to be so pretentious, please. it detracts from the song and video. thanks!

[Spaceisneat]

@basspole calm down. I was just joking around.

btw, I'm the one that made the video...

[basspole]

@Spaceisneat you made a nice video. im calm i just think you were being pretentious with your "weeping for humanity" comment. im not saying that to be hurtful. take the constructive criticism and calm down yourself. you're showing your age.

[Spaceisneat]

@basspole I'm fine lol.... I never thought you were trying to be hurtful. Like I said I was just kidding around when I said that... :P

[rhod2k9]

@basspole

wtf are you talking about mate

you need to calm down

[basspole]

@rhod2k9 no one is talking to you, keep your daft comments to yourself, mate.

[4l4ddin77]

@basspole

i think its YOU who needs some criticism.

[damres]

@basspole

SHUT UP BASSPOLE YA FUCKING PLUMBRAIN COURTCASE SEIZURE INDUCING DRIVEL BABOON

[Spaceisneat]

@damres hahahahaha wow that was actually pretty funny :D

[krasia3]

@basspole

it's time to delete this coment, lol

[krasia3]

@basspole 

[leilafigueira84]

@basspole good time for taking this coment out, it's kind of shamefull

[basspole]

@leilafigueira84 shameful? jesus, you people are too sensitive. i didnt say anything derogatory, it was merely an observation based on something the creator of this video had said about weeping. get over yourself.

[shavis001]

@basspole No kidding, spent the first half of the song reading this.. Now I gotta restart it and reinsert my own original meaning to the song again! sheeesh lol.

jk

Nice video, good sound. thankyou.

[tomfool1978]

(just read a post on a forum) Listen to Parasite by Nick Drake. This is great! Radiohead has some great influences, love'm. But this one was new for me. can i love'm more?

[kscouller]

One of my favourite songs!

[andylang17]

Like the video think you've done a good job.

[Spaceisneat]

@andylang17 Thank you :)

[espositomassimo]

very special song

[zeetstok]

gratz

[rutger5000]

@Spaceisneat Sorry, don't really like the Vid. Ï'm gratefull for the music, but I could do without the VID :(

[Spaceisneat]

@rutger5000 No worries.

[nednoodles]

nice video man im sure thom and the boys would like it.

[Spaceisneat]

@nednoodles Thanks alot... it would be really cool if they saw it. :)

[makeithurtful]

hmm was the shadow trying to look like a small headed alien..if soo well done

[Spaceisneat]

@makeithurtful hmm you would know a lot about having one of those. :P

[Probolkoc]

Anyone notice how much this song sounds like The Beatles' Lucy In The Sky With Diamonds?

[simonwoulfe]

@Probolkoc I'm so glad I'm not crazy! I was singing Lucy in the Sky earlier and somehow found myself singing this song but when you listen to it it doesn't REALLY seem to sound like it...So I googled "Subterranean Homesick Alien Lucy" and this came up... haha

[TheFreemanist]

shaky black and white insta-art. Love the song though.

[magus77578]

@TheFreemanist Did you miss the minimalist 90's?

[Monitodeve]

eve

trulobgüeyts

[Spaceisneat]

trulobgueyts?

[madcap66laughs]

Ok Computer is my favorite Radiohead album! This album really changed me and my outlook on life.

[Spaceisneat]

Same here ::))

[NinjaBooKitty]

@madcap66laughs I'd like to hear how it changed your outlook on life...

[jimmymortis]

@madcap66laughs And I wonder why people write treatises on the human condition. Why did Thomas Hobbes bother with Leviathon when he could have just made a 30 minute album of eerie music about being captured by aliens! A strange generation, we have spawned indeed...

[camelotgeorge33]

im not high and im loving it

[Spaceisneat]

Anybody, that isn't high, enjoying the song? lol :P

[ANGELxINxDESARKNS]

Im enjoying it, not high right now :)

[Spaceisneat]

Finally!!! haha! :))

[beetlezumbie]

@Spaceisneat im liking this song and im not high......right now. LOL just kidding i dont mess with that stuff

[Spaceisneat]

I think this song is all anybody needs to get high ::))

[drjay473]

@beetlezumbie you should try it ;)

[UtdFansAreArseholes]

@Spaceisneat I've had a couple of beers. I used to listen to this as I had a very good friend who loved radiohead and insisted upon playing radiohead albums over and over

[ChickenDownloads]

I am listening to this song on itunes and on the video almost perfectly synced. It has an insane chorus effect.

[Maldonado136]

I don't mean to sound like a stoner but if you don't listen to this song at least once in your life while high then you are truly missing out on an incredible experience.

[ANGELxINxDESARKNS]

You can almost feel the lyrics without listening to the words, im too high lol.

[AustinPwndU]

@ANGELxINxDESARKNS

it's okay mate.

me to, me to.

[FastTrackStatus1]

@Maldonado136 - agreed.

The first (and, to date, only) time I tried weed, I was at a Radiohead gig in Victoria Park, London. 'Climbing Up The Walls' was amaaaazing

[ShootToLuna]

Nice fan video.

[Spaceisneat]

Thank you :))

[ShootToLuna]

Very welcome.

[CaptainKirk712]

Easily in my top five songs of all time

[guccilittlepiggy1]

mine too dude!

[DerMrBen]

ok computer is the best album, i love the music

[Spaceisneat]

I don't know why, but I prefer Kid A... *shrugs* OK Computer is still an amazing CD though.

[bigdunk9]

I agree. Kid A is my favourite!

[ThyPaperClip]

This song is very, very significant

[wsxqaz14]

it looks like ur on stilts

[Spaceisneat]

lol!!!! :D

[OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth]

@Spaceisneat something called a shadow

[Spaceisneat]

oh... thanks :)

[OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth]

@Spaceisneat You know when you drink a soda and you burp?

That's not a shadow.

[Spaceisneat]

@OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth what are you talking about? maybe you're trying not to make any sense.

[OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth]

@Spaceisneat haha it's an old joke about onions. I forgot which tv show it was on but someone kept explaining what something was using this tactic:

"OK, so you you know an onion, right?"

"Yeah."

"And you know how it has lots of crispy layers?"

"Yeah..."

"Well it's not like that."

[Spaceisneat]

@OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth sounds pretty stupid lol.

[OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth]

@Spaceisneat Well it's actually a play on how people don't explain what something is, they just say what it's like. I do the same thing to annoy people who are concentrating on something, by pointing at somewhere hard to see and saying "you see that sign?" And they squint their eyes for a minute and say "yeah?" And I just say, "Me too." It definitely annoys them :)

[Spaceisneat]

@OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth if you did that to me I'd probably knock your block off.

[OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth]

@Spaceisneat Great syncing, I just realized that the cracks in the pavement are exactly at the same time as when he says 'cracks in the pavement'! Oh and that's such a cool bit in the third half!

[Spaceisneat]

@OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth yea I know... that was pure luck... and thank you. :)

[simonwoulfe]

@OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth

Dude...That's Shrek.

[OnlyVideoGuyOnEarth]

@simonwoulfe What is?

[scott113]

this is terrific.

how talented you are.

[Spaceisneat]

Thanks... I really am amazing aren't I? *slicks hair back and makes arrogant face*

[GuitarFreak930]

I love how his British accent comes out when he say beautiful.

[TheSilentPawn]

Cool video.

[Spaceisneat]

Thank you :D

[Scott17quebec]

Excellent!

[TheLoonwolf]

This video is awesome when you are high, I love the bit where the shadow creature is uncertain about how to get past the shadow tree. :)

[aceleraemataavelha]

it's just me or High Speed by Coldplay sounds a lot like Subterranean Homesick Alien?

[Spaceisneat]

hmmm they both have that spacey feel to it... and yea, they sort of do sound similar don't they? btw... I love that song by Coldplay... mmmm :)

[rdyohad14]

radiohead is much more original tho

[psyckid008]

One of my favorite radiohead songs. thank you for making this.

[dasklavierleben]

haha, I like this. Your shadow looks so cute just strollin' along.

[MrLion1]

I like this. The style of the video is great. Nice job!

[Spaceisneat]

Thank you! :D

[amrosama2020]

Cute little alien feet :) 0:43

[Spaceisneat]

lol oh god... hilarious :D

[altimatemonkey]

are you supposed to be a homesick alien?

[Spaceisneat]

I guess that's what you could assume... seeing as I'm wandering around aimlessly for awhile on the road, and then I somehow find my way back home.

Before I even had the idea of editing this video with the radiohead song in it, I filmed myself and my shadow walking down the street... so it was pretty random but also pretty lucky how everything came together. :)

[altimatemonkey]

thats really cool. :)

[welcomegohome]

like make it about an alien.

[ParticleFarticle]

I watched it with my eyes closed.

Nice effort, though!

[Spaceisneat]

yep, that made a lot of sense.

[Deinonychosauria]

"I watched it with my eyes closed."

Hahaha! =D

[Brendanvio]

Great song though

[Idioteque271]

you can definitely do a lot more with this song video wise..just my opinion.

[KIDAmnesiacBends]

good song for mdma

[Spaceisneat]

lol!!!

[geracach89]

I love the song all is perfect love the guitar in this song

[UnitedjOeY88]

bet u all did well in ur alevels :(

[Spaceisneat]

what does that have to do with anything?

[unclemeat2u]

this brings back so many memories. Time goes by....

[majonchito]

Probablemente una de las mejores canciones de rock alternativo de los noventas, y ok computer uno de los grandes albums de todos los tiempos indiscutiblemente.

[przytrafkaPL]

Song of my life Love it !!!

[risterion]

Cuando el talento y la magia se unen, surge la Belleza. Esta canción lo demuestra.

[peacemaker121395]

love it!!

[stolenbaby472]

when i die, do what you will with my body...cremate, bury, chop up, rape just play this song for me

[Avakodster]

1:51...your walking is in beat with the song...amazing. Haha magic of Radiohead....

[rodolfobissoli]

I could tell why, but it would take me much time. Anyway this is just the way I imagine this music. Your shadow and the solitude made a great couple as protagonists.

Contratulations!

[Spaceisneat]

Thank you very much... I appreciate your kind compliments :D

[rteyber12]

seems like you spent a while syncing the footsteps with the beat... makes the vid much more complete to me

[macalauresmuse]

This is excellent, I was only searching as I wanted to listen to this song (and was too lazy to dig out the cd) and I found this.

How lucky was it that the song matched nearly exactly the video (cracks in the pavement part was nicely timed)? Impressive walking about too, if I had tried that I would have likely fallen over something (possibly that jaggy looking plant 3 mins or so into the film).

[Spaceisneat]

Haha thanks alot. Yea, if I want to listen to a Radiohead song I just search for videos on youtube instead of looking for the CD too ;) Yea after I edited the video and watched it, I was like "holy crap it goes with the lyrics!" I thought that was pretty awesome. You would've fallen over something eh? lol I guess if you do try something like that just make sure you walk really slow and look ahead once in awhile :P

[swissknife216]

way too literal.

[Spaceisneat]

It wasn't meant to be literal. I filmed this video even before I had the idea of using the Radiohead song with it. So basically, I got lucky when I finished editing it because it went with the lyrics of the song.

[smukasa]

awesome video. the way the camera fixates on the shadow conveys an interesting animation of reality. Complements the song beautifully. good shit

[Spaceisneat]

OMG thank you! :O)

[callicolady]

quality! ....love it

[thgirlskater31797]

Brilliant song brilliant video.

Seems to go good together.

I love Radiohead, stopped listening to them for awhile. Then I heard 2+2=5 and I'm back again.

[Spaceisneat]

Thanks alot. Yea I don't really listen to them much these days. :(

[macalauresmuse]

I love their music too but have drifted away (due to not much liking their recent stuff). I just had a notion to listen to some earlier stuff today.

[cleveroonie]

check out the House of cards vid from "in rainbows" -AWESOME

[SecondRythm]

i like this video, but i dont like those kind of videos that take the lyrics literally and show what the lyrics talk about in the video. For example, when the song says "You watch your feet, the cracks in the pavement", you show your feet and there's cracks in the pavement you're walking on.

[Spaceisneat]

Hehe, ;) actually, I filmed this video even before I had the idea of using it for the song and I when I edited it all together it seemed to go with the song. Coincidentally, the lyrics matched the crack in the pavement part...so it wasn't anything I planned, so it wasn't intentional :P.

[GirlAnchor]

I agree with both of you, I also don't like the videos which match the lyrics literally, and also sometimes have it in my own videos by accident. Yet, I am trying to avoid it. Anyway, thanks for the song!

[pollypaul]

The guitar work in this peice is stellar!

[mgarcia]

hermosa canción me transporta a otro planeta.

Radiohead = GENIOS

[GlaceonShine]

That was neat !! I enjoyed it !

[justicedoubleu]

luv Radiohead :*

[Spaceisneat]

they love you too lol

[justicedoubleu]

nice to hear that lol ;p

[trashmanfXCM]

I wish they'd swoop down... late at night

[samshadows]

Nice video, Space.

I like that it's a "Homesick" alien, and you find your way home at the end.

Clever.

5/5

[avengedx7fan123]

i love this song... and the vids pretty cool!!! XD

[Spaceisneat]

Thank you, you're too kind :P

[avengedx7fan123]

haha fer sure!! lol

[mrbunnylovescarrots]

amazing song man, its so out of this world, wierd but in a good way, i kno about them from my dad, i love them ahhhhmazing!

[Spaceisneat]

Yes I know this song never gets old eh? :)

[kalsikum]

This song is one of the first few songs that I liked from radiohead

[joblee31797]

this song is extremly creative i love thom yorkes voice

[pesterlovis]

ABSOLUTELY A MASTERPIECE! also me i try to made some video stuff but they aren't good at all like this!

[ELGROOVER]

Can't go wrong with OK Computer : ) This nice simple vid compliments the spirit of this introspective track so well. Grey, ethereal, isol@ed, a little sad yet not gloomy...nice one : D

[maatyr1878]

My most favourite Radiohead tune! I love that they used the Fender starcaster strat.

[Spaceisneat]

Thank you everyone for your wonderful comments... :DDDD

[molotov73]

Show me the world as i'd love to see it. They are up tight. Great video.

[rsman991]

Cool video, recording the shadow alone gave it a cool effect, almost like a shadow of a person walking through life, not really living fully or being there always.

[MCRmauricionvp]

Radiohead is so good

this video makes me wanna listen to that song even more x]

Nice job!

[cerices]

we were too high nicorivas, but high or down I really like this video. where was this video made?

[nicorivas]

Excelent video, we saw it with our friends, we where high, amazing

[hagiadzo]

I really liked this a lot! I appreciate the pacing of the video: the way the scenes transition during changes in the song. Good work indeed!

[Spaceisneat]

Thank you so much for taking the time to post this comment :)

[demetrios4voto]

back home .xe xe! cool!

[maxomytosis]

great!!!
