@johny5times will you fuck off already? your jokes are inappropriate, your responses are immature, you contribute nothing to any serious discussion or music. get on with your schoolyard jokes idiot, nobody is impressed with people who cover their inability to understand songs with stupid jokes.
@truthslap Inappropriate? Serious discussion?? This is the comments section for a youtube video not the fucking UN. See previous comment about perspective and say 10 hail Marys, God might forgive you, but I won't. For the record, I perfectly understand the meaning of this song, I just find someone getting all high and mighty about it pretty funny. Internetting - Serious Business!
@johny5times Why is this still going, why do you continue trying to cover your shame to me? I only said it's "kind of crummy to make dumb jokes about an important song". groove on it if you don't like it you uptight bastard.
@truthslap You're calling me an uptight bastard? I make a light hearted joke and you turn it into a big deal with your self important anally retentive drudgery. The only reason I'm keeping this going is to see what shite you come out with next. Define shame, because we seem to be miles apart here. I'm having a laugh at your expense... so keep up the good work!
@PsychoticTheory Are you serious? So instead of commenting something about the video, it's better if I post "hutch sent me here", something that has nothing of value to this video? Fuck off.
So much better than the album version. All stemming from the thought of 'how do we play a song played backwards on record live'. Thom basically wrote another piece of music (piano line). Amazing
I'll listen to this over and over again, inviting those cold feelings I once felt, even if it tears up my insides and reminds me of the past I left behind. That feeling....
the most simply amazing thing about this song, and radiohead in general, is the insane chord progressions and changes. It is pure genius, nearly always.

While you make pretty speeches/ im being cut to shreds/ you feed me to the lions/ a delicate balance/ and this just feels like spinning plates/ I'm living in cloud cuckoo land/ And this just feels like spinning plates/ Our bodies floating down the muddy river
Well the atmospheric bridge of the studio version apparently leads to a time slowing, emotional destruction of that very bridge where you are left falling back to your own reality with nothing to grab onto but the debris of the destruction.
In other words, was not prepared for this. Too beautiful.
I was at this show. Needless to say, I'm one of the many voices shouting when he starts singing. Great video. I often sing this song to myself when I see politicians talking on TV or when I'm walking in my neighborhood late at night...
this song made me have nervous breakdrown the last time i heard it--took me 5 years and 4 months to recover, it happened when thom's vocals kicked in...oh bugger, cloud cuckoo land beckons me, i'll see you in 2015 xxx
Wow I have never heard Like Spinning Plates live but that's because the album version isn't my favourite song from Amnesiac ... But I just changed my mind. Whoever thought of the piano is the best person in the band :D I'm really amazed by that song.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
adam,
Radiohead likely had this piano version BEFORE the Amnesiac version.
You have to realize how they work; generally, they create extraordinarily beautiful songs, then willfully butcher them in the studio behind a wall of bizarre distractionary production...for unknown and thoroughly frustrating fuckign reasons.
Yeah, now that I heard early versions of Lucky, I will and There There, I know that Radiohead's songs are way more creative in the beginning. That's probably because the "awesome" publishers want something different (that fits THEIR taste). I heard that the Klaxons had their new album completely scrapped just because the publisher wasn't happy with it... luckily Radiohead can do what they want now and produce even more creative stuff such as the In Rainbows.
I think that's part of what's great about Radiohead. You hear the album and you're like, "This is the greatest thing in my life right now," and then you hear the live version and you're completely blown away--almost angry you weren't listening to this the whole time. It's got a greater impact, you wouldn't be able to fully comprehend the beauty had you not heard the other, "butchered" version.
radiohead themselves wanted to go for a more electronic, fucked up sound, to represent the fucked up ideas in thom's head. in my opinion, the delayed drum beats in videotape were phenomenal.
its wonderful

that's just plain wrong.
First of all, the "publisher" or the record company had no effect on Kid A and Amnesiac whatsoever. It's all radiohead's choice.
They probably just thought that LSP sounds better in the studio version.
BTW early versions of Lucky are the same as the studio - actually, studio is better.
As for There There, studio is much better then any other version.
