[HD] Thom Yorke - Down Is The New Up (From The Basement)

[kickthatrick]

@ 4:16 "Your candid camera!" You had me there Thom <3

[seusicha]

And that`s the proof of alien life!

[ThatZevGuy]

I find it funny people from the UK say fuck american bands, when some of America's biggest bands are big because UK. Kings of Leon is an example.

Now OT...Thom York is god. fucking amazing man

[mauri1039]

Fuck thats american bands! long live to radiohead!

[Riky94asr]

Uk's bands are the best no doubts. (said by an Italian, who has only some great artists form the past like De Andrè or Gaber)

[MrPlatonist]

fuck all of you, we have The Cardigans, Roxette, Abba & The Hives .. LOOOOOL

[MrPlatonist]

@MrPlatonist oh oh, and Max Martin too of course. the man who created Backstreet Boys and Britney Spears .. faiiiil

[kyokookanami]

@MrPlatonist loooooooooooooooooooooooooooos­errrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr

[MrPlatonist]

@kyokookanami rofl

[SerzinjoAndCo]

uk bands - motorhead, led zeppelin

no comment

[MrBed1963]

Queen is english. And where are the pixies in all this!!! Pixies are one of the greatest U.S. band ever!!!!

"Your services are not required, your future's bleak, you're so last week."

[TheAtheistHindu]

Radiohead proved UK's artistic superiority over USA.

[dandaily4]

@TheAtheistHindu Sadly, I have to agree. The Beatles, Pink Floyd, Radiohead, Gorillaz, The Rolling Stones. Britain's a powerhouse. Well, at least U.S. has The White Stripes, The Doors, and Nirvana. But for the most part, we're stuck with Lady Gaga, Justn Bieber, and Ke$ha.

[TheAtheistHindu]

@dandaily4 The Doors is perhaps the only true sublime rock 'artistic' act US ever produced.

[Thyrodiak]

@TheAtheistHindu don`t agree with u guys... NIN, Tool, Deftones, Qeens of the stone age, ect.... are great bands but yeah... lots of good bands are from GB

[dandaily4]

@Thyrodiak No, I totally agree with you on those. Also, Soundgarden, Queen, Jimi Hendrix, The Beach Boys. I think they both have a lot of great bands.

[simplelife88393]

@dandaily4 Pixies are one of Radioheads biggest influences and a fantastic band 

[dandaily4]

@simplelife88393 Ah, yes. How could I forget! They're also Nirvana's biggest influence too.

[mikeshorin]

@TheAtheistHindu if you think one "country" is superior to another in terms of music, you're a true fucktard and extremely ignorant in regards to the artistic world at large. Go fucking listen to some top 40, some more.

[TheAtheistHindu]

@mikeshorin Oh! do you think I'd be listening to Radiohead if I was 'charts top 40/ top 100' kind of a guy?

[bozbontins]

this guys talent is oozing out his arse

[dnlfn]

I'd like to see this in a Mitt Romney campaign ad. "You crawled off and left us, you bastard." What a 180-flip-flop. Jeez. Your services are not required. Am I right? High five.

[masonteddy]

Everytime I saw the title I thought about Captain Jack..............

[soleilmh]

Youuuu bastardd 

[AmelieDemy]

majestic, brilliant, heartbreaking, breathtaking, inspiring and inspired. Thom, you're an amazing soul

[ddidds13]

i had no idea that thom was such a good and profound piano player :)

[NespyCuevas]

Wooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo­oooooooooooW! Im without words! :D

[majhamza]

the lyrics of the song are just brilliant

I think it's among their greatest song

[adampvarner]

Thom Yorke I wish to send you a message.

It seems you are concerned with the future of harmonic structure in music. As long as you play the blues scale the kids will love you.

[85Dreaming]

His smirk OMG

[evilpigeions]

0:20 just sprinkling some magic dust to bless the piano

[TheOfficialKarina]

@evilpigeions Ahahhhahahhahah!

[CalumnMcAulay]

wonderful vocals

[AustinBrock]

What does he say at the end when he finishes?

[CandySpicer]

@AustinBrock "water" I think

[AustinBrock]

@CandySpicer I think you're right, nice :)!

[mrmooz]

this is a really weird song. not in a bad way, but some very strange chord progressions here. very creepy sounding acoustic version.

[FERDINANDNUNCIO]

I guess this song talks be about the society... and how the society has been thinking that been promiscous and mostley jerks is been the fashion... or well in my country that is happening, everybody thinks that "down is the new up" that they should have an 180º flip-flop of what they used to be, trying to be part of all the else androids, but they services are not required, they future is bleak and one day they will be so last week... that's just me... maybe i might be wrong.. or maybe not.

[BloodyCatastrophee]

@FERDINANDNUNCIO I like it. Good- Insightful interpretation!

[marigoldpink86]

luv2!!

[DigitalLoveDaftPunk]

That piano is almost as awesome as the song. 

[jjysoserious]

Wow the sound quality of the video is outstanding and so is Thom!!!

[oldirtydirtdog]

f''n wizard

[JoeriPronk1]

16.502 views and one dislike. Whose the guy?

[TheeSkyTurnsGreen]

@JoeriPronk1

miley cyrus .

[sebastianbf]

@JoeriPronk1 Thom probably. He hates to hear himself singing.

[Gioacchino4]

@JoeriPronk1 someone really stupid!

[vCompact]

@JoeriPronk1

I feel sorry for you.....

you need more Radiohead in your soul :\

[Nirvaaanaa]

@JoeriPronk1 someone who took the title a bit to serious...

[whirlpoolzend]

@Nirvaaanaa ha! very good :)

[thenextvh]

less badmouthing via internet. more listening to this.

[hchn333]

The first chord of the song...We Suck Young Blood? Or just similar?

[TheSirMadness]

@hchn333 right, young blood

[hchn333]

@TheSirMadness Spruce Moose :P Cheers for the reply.

[ZadaheaD]

2:24 - loved his wicked smile there ... :)

[ceridawn]

this cheered me right up!

[gav1np]

mahavishnuxc, you do think of some dumb shit to say. There's no other band that is more about the art of music than Radiohead. They're probably the ugliest band ever formed. I doubt any of them are really bothered about being pictured.

[mahavishnuxc]

does anyone else think that that thom yore is an attention whore? ive noticed that he likes to be the center of attention, as if the band was called "THOM YORKE feat. Radiohead". hes always in the middle of the pictures or just so in front of the camera that the other members seem unimportant. i dont know, i dont like that.

[tjy90]

@mahavishnuxc

as do all bands and their lead singers.

[seapockets]

@mahavishnuxc he isn't the one taking the pictures. in fact, in one preformance i remember him saying into the mike something to the extent of "the camera's are still on me? that isn't very fair."

[mahavishnuxc]

@seapockets take a closer look, the videos and all. nothing against thom. i like him and i love radiohead one of my favorite artists. it was just a comment, my opinion is all. for instance i dont know about you mate, but what drew me to this song was the drumming, though simple, but great beat. and to just have him playing alone.disappointing. again my opinion mate. take it or not.

[Jefflebowski95]

@mahavishnuxc yorke doesnt decide where the cameras go. isnt that obvious?

[snugglebear97653]

@mahavishnuxc haha you apparently caught the stupid.

[mahavishnuxc]

@snugglebear97653 or maybe i just caught the "opinion bug", you know, that disease that makes people think for themselves and come up with their own opinions formed by their perceptions. but its not as contagious as the "being an ignorant fuck that gets all pissy when people dont share their opinions"- that one is plaguing all over youtube, its an epidemic.

[evanwilliamssourmash]

sounds like erik satie

[findingphunc]

@evanwilliamssourmash it does rather. I wish Yorkie would pick up a piano more often in this kind of mood.

[forgeryproof]

2:25 well aware of his awesomeness ;D

[Knr911]

@forgeryproof I'd rather say that he's taking a lot of pleasure out of performing more than being self-indulgent... Just my guess.

[gozondor]

I bet the piece of paper he picked up at the beginning is a magical piece of paper which tell thom how to make suck good music which he dropped earlier

[BuddyWillis]

So I downloaded Live from the Basement but it doesn't have any of these solo piano performances from Thom on it just the whole band tracks, what gives?

[mooncricket88]

@BuddyWillis this is not part of the full band set of in the basement. The basement is only a studio keep in mind so when u see from the basement it doesnt mean it is from the in rainbows/hail to the thief set featuring the whole band. If u notice in the videos with the whole band his hair is longer than in this and other solo performances.

[1marchk1]

Thom yorke looks way better with short hair!

[tartufo7y7]

@1marchk1 right??? totally agree

[huhu3huhu]
