[lucapomi]

[littlecreamsodababy]

this song gets me kinda choked up.

[alepera1981]

[stephendedalusbc]

@alepera1981 Don't insult people. 

[TVotrFan73]

There is something universal to this song that transcends the lyrics. Sound translated to feeling and nostalgia... this.

[shelbythomas]

@TVotrFan73

I think you might mean "timeless", and I have ALWAYS thought that about Radiohead's music......like it's always been there in the marble, chipped away by these Michaelangelos...

[MrKatunes]

this is a amaizing song by radiohead. no ones is clear and inocent

[VerilyMusic]

@MrKatunes wow i thought it was the water's clear but that adds so much depth beautiful <3

[MrKatunes]

@VerilyMusic it was a mistake i thought it was no ones is clear and inocent maybe sorry but sounds good dont you think

[Jazlijamill]

i was wondering how the video clip of this song would be?

...it should be in slowmotion haha :D

[TheWaynelds]

@Jazlijamill well they might?

[pepe1234550]

[Arthounot]

I gradually hear the waves in my heart

[DaveysRecipeRead]

Their own codex of perfect beauty.

[josephknightcom]

[Yarrow963]

[01jarf]

i would jump..lets all jump

[stormblackstar]

I love this song!!!! I think that it coud be the next single

[RossNieuwenhuizen]

how can a song make you so sad and so happy at the same time? probably the most beautiful song i've ever heard.

[toadzog]

With the exception of this song I am dissapointed by the new album

[zygoose]

@toadzog it'll grow on you

[dumaramutsi]

@zygoose well said!

[dumaramutsi]

@toadzog listen to it everyday and i will give you two weeks, than i can assure you that you will comeback saying that is one of the best albums that you ever listened in your life. i can promise you that, if not.i will give a few months then. but i can assure you that the album will grow on you. have a nice day man :)

[droma11]

2 people are deaf

[jhen0709]

That should probably be "sleight of hand"

[bunnyboo989]

one of my favourite songs from their album, just beautiful! makes me want to take up piano again!

[lifesabeach1810]

@bunnyboo989

i just "rediscovered" radiohead and i did try to take up guitars again.. trying to play there there for a couple of weeks now. i felt that way too. cheers! goodluck

[zweidrei91]

Radiohead never sounded more comforting.

[BTBAM4life1]

radiohead is one of the few rock bands i can actually listen to. I listen to death metal, progressive metal, and RADIOHEAD. this album is so amazing

[dMoniker]

@BTBAM4life1 Same here man, love all types of extreme metal. But Radiohead are up there as one of the best bands of all time

[aoyarcen]

La Canción Perfecta Para hoy.

Nada de Empezar un dia Lunes Con ánimo.

Esta maravilla merece ser escuchada a cualquier hora del dia...

"You've done nothing wrong

Slide your hand

Jump off the end"

[jethyy]

Yawn

[yamalysheva]

persoanlly for me radiohead is the music of sex. Sex in love. Real love - overtaking, crazy, painful, shaking, sick, insatiable. Thу Love when you feel that even if you stay together for hundred years, you would never get enough of each other..

And this song is so much about this

[karlabrandon]

Beautiful and haunting. I am so in love.

[JTNugget]

This song gives me goosebumps and evokes an emotion of sadness. Amazing song, really.

[FriedChickenofDeath6]

This song gives me a comforting feeling. Chills too. Makes me think about suicide as something normal, "nothing wrong" to be done. I mean, I need it, since I have serious suicidal tendencies. It makes me feel like I have an option besides living a shitty life.

[totil2]

@FriedChickenofDeath6 I know that some ppl have serious difficulties. But theres always something u can change. U can change reality, u can change the way u see reality too. Choosing dead isnt the best option, for me. I work in a psichiatric institution and many ppl regreted those suicide tendencies, and many ppl are happy today. Hope that conforts u in some way.

[FriedChickenofDeath6]

@totil2 I don't know...

I hope so!

[paracetamolcodeina]

@FriedChickenofDeath6 Even if you can't believe it, there is something you can do to make your life better. Death is wrong because it is never going to make things better for you. I was depressed too so I understand you. But you need to know that thinking about suicide is always a symptom of depression. Millions of people suffer from depression. It is not a personal weakness or personality fault. Depression is a recognized, treatable illness. A doctor specialist in psychiatrist can help you.

[FriedChickenofDeath6]

@paracetamolcodeina I know that. I tried. I didn't work. But I won't stop trying. At least for now...

[honeybunnysnugglebug]

@FriedChickenofDeath6 I know how you feel.

[FriedChickenofDeath6]

@honeybunnysnugglebug Thank, man (:

[ray123ification]

A tad boring maybe...

[cmathiou]

mature music

[Hammercrafter]

I don't normally like brass in most songs, but they recorded the brass in this song with such an unabrasive tenderness, the way that lonely trumpet run dovetails with his voice against the piano...and that breakdown starting at 3:35...that's the type of majestic sophistication of arrangement that tone-deaf reviewers refer to as "bloops" or "sloppy noise" and use it as a basis to disparage King Of Limbs. These fuck-twits don't get it. Critics penalize them for arrangements of breadth. It's ashame

[stoogemund]

@Hammercrafter

Well said.

[BuddyWillis]

Can't wait to hear this live

[dryfish02]

Ok i've actually just read the description/lyrics, i will now cease to type.

[dryfish02]

Ok scratch that... Slight of hand, jump off the end, into a clearing, no one around, just dragonflies, fantasise, no one get's hurt, they don't know what's around...........

[dryfish02]

Slight of hand jump on, into a clearing no one around, just *** fantasise, no one gets hurt ****

[dryfish02]

Christ I love this song

[Drenwickification]

I love radiohead and I love this song... but would any of you not agree it has quite a few similarities with pyramid song?

[kakaokuh]

@Drenwickification Pyramide song but with an easy piano melody like in videotape in my opinion

[dryfish02]

@kakaokuh I think the album is reminiscent of kid A and amnesiac

[dryfish02]

@Drenwickification Yes it too has a piano

[Drenwickification]

@dryfish02 And you think that is the only thing it has in common?

The starting lyrics, the structure, the rythmn, the part at 2:17, they are all similar to pyramid song.

[dryfish02]

@Drenwickification You know, the more I hear it, the more I tend to agree with you. Yes it definitely has a ring of Pyramid Song about it. Still love it, and the whole album. Some peeps been giving this Album a bad rap, I think it's truly amazing, been a fan since OK Computer. To me King Of Limbs is more, Kid A meets Amnesiac,and tbh they are imo the most progressive albeit experiment albums.

[wfenio]

@Drenwickification yeah... i can see why you'd say that.. but it's definitely unique enough to stand on it's own.. very original and very brilliant! Coldplay wishes they could be as original and genius as Radiohead! Even with the help of Eno as producer, they still don't compare IMHO.. (Actually Eno's old stuff is pretty awesome too)

[Nikoo1207]

@Drenwickification

In my view Pyramid Song is darker than Codex. Even on the voice, here it's clearer and higher. I feel it much less melancolic. But it's my opinion

[TheBakigirl]

like a slow relaxing dream

[eskimospy77]

@Drenwickification And a tiny hint of "How to Disappear Completely" in the vocals

[Arthounot]

@Drenwickification because it's piano only. Pyramid song has a slow built up towards an end. This song subsides and stays where it its integrity remains.

[Cyferion]

Oh, I think this one is the most beautiful on the album... EPIC ALBUM...

[TheTKOShow]

"The calm,

Cool face of the river

Asked me for a kiss"

Langston Hughes (1902-1967)

[Vaguinhomox]

awesomeeeeee

[marysb77]

is so perfect!! thanks Radiohead!

[chimaera41]

Caviar for my ears..

Just..

♥

[paddymourinho]

Thank you Radiohead.

[kakaokuh]

Feel free to add lyrics!

[ThatRascal]

@kakaokuh - I think the line under dragonflies is "flying to the sun" but I could be wrong. Thanks for the upload though. I love the new release, but this song most of all. It just reaches me for some reason. Quite a bit slower than many of my favorite songs, but I cannot stop listening to this track.
