  • he told them about a plague called "Bieber fever" that infected his home planet and he has come to warn earth of the disease.

  • The meaning of the song is life. If you could figure out how to beat the system, or the meaning to life, you'd just fall over and not want to carry on or give a shit about anything

  • "you guys ever been planking?..."

  • "the pavement sounds like Radiohead"

  • Lipread: "I am Randy Quaid and you are all my cousins"

  • how do you upload vids with music vids on

  • people getting worked up over stuff. solved businessman gets promotion but doesnt have a life.

  • people getting worked up over stuff. solved

  • 'If you all play along with me, ill let you in on the profits this video makes'

  • too melodramatic.

  • does anyone who has already seen this video know how to read from lips and can solve this mystery once and for all ?????

  • He said: "The only way to defeat capitalism and NWO is to do absolutely nothing..."

  • @dias66

    no I'm sure he said something

    "I'll tell you why I'm being so dumb"

    or something

  • He said: 'The pavement smells like cookies'.

  • just great...wenisimo...

  • love this video so much

  • This Video Is Fuckin' Amazing!!!!!!!!! I Love Radiohead!!!

  • Curiosity killed the cat.

  • I have an orgasm every time I watch it on the TV

  • What the hell is wrong with Hip Hop/Rap? Don't judge a genre by what the radio plays. Listen to Black Star, Gang Starr, ATCQ, Lupe Fiasco. That's were Hip Hop is at. Not the garbage Hip Pop they play in the radio.

  • lmfao wtf did he say?

  • umm...derolicks???...

    OH derelicts....

    okay..

  • Guy on the ground is saying, "That policeman looks just like me"

  • Comment removed

  • personally, i dont want to know what he said. i heard all i needed to from listening to the song. what i love most is you are all doing it to yourselves. if you found out what he said. whats next? it will be all over for you too like it is for that man.

  • and thats why the video is so great.

  • It doesnt matter what he said, Its just a message telling us that curiousity killed us, we did it to ourselves

  • best thing ever filmed.

  • true

  • what the hell did he say?

  • WHAT DID HE SAY!?

  • Enorme...!!!

  • now i wanna know what did he say!!!

  • That music video is so cool!

    It's freaky and funny but it's really nice!

  • I don't care much for this band, but this song is great. And who is the guitarist in the white shirt? He seems pretty good.

  • jonny greenwood

  • Jonny Greenwood, yeah he's really good and has really good time. He's considered a pretty good guitarist by a lot of notable people and magazines.

  • jonny greenwood, and whoever gave this comment a thumbs down is a retard, ppl are entitled to their opinion on music.

  • great..

  • [on Just]

    "A competition between me and Jonny to get as many chords as possible into a song."

  • It's funny because we all wonder what he's saying, but it's the fact that we all think that there is something and believe there is something that should wipe us on the floor, is what is so terrifying. We do it to ourselves, we think about it and we are insecure.

    It's the idea that we're all trying to figure out what the guy is saying because we really think there is something that terrible.

  • hello Thom and buddies,

    Thanks for such great music!

    Would you make a song about time?

  • You're not supposed to know, that's the meaning of the song. You'll torture yourself over the meaning, and you do this to yourself.

  • wow

    thats heaps good man

    thumbs up 100 times for that comment :O

  • That's actually brilliant, good work.

  • WTF the man said at the end?? FOR CHRIST'S SAKE I REALLY WANT TO KNOW!!!!

  • lol Phil was even bald back then

  • Comment removed

  • This song makes you feel at peace? Cos it's definitely not supposed to...

  • ...just...

    one of the best songs of radiohead; this have a very unique pure style

    radiohead= best band ever

  • "get the fuck down or ill kill you all"

  • What the hell did he say?

  • we watched this in my english advanced class the other day. it gave me yet another reason to love radiohead. =D

    now we have to write a short story on the missing words...i hope i do it justice. =S

    lol at 1:46-1:53.

    he's amazing. i want to be just like him.

    =]

  • Thom Yorke, gotta love him, but he's kind of a dork...

  • so what. he's a talented dork :)

  • you know that the definition for 'dork' is a whale's penis

  • Lol! Is that what they meant in this context, though?

    how could anyone call Thom a whale's penis??!! Lol!

  • a whale's penis or a Wales' penis?

  • hmm dork... dont think thats the right word your looking for but i get your meaning, he's more of a creep if you get my meaning. ;)

  • he says "lay the fuck down or i'll stab yall"

  • "You do it to yourself". They were all so curious to find out what he heard that they ended up just like him, laying down on the ground, stuck doing nothing and going nowhere. They did it to themselves. woohoo!

  • this is a comment on the lyrics I found on a site. It struck interesting to me. direct quote:

    "like Niam said, it is important to not know what it is the man says. its like when you hear people whispering about you, you want to know what they are saying, but when they do tell you, you feel bad and wish you didnt know. They didnt have to tell you, but you "brought it on yourself""

  • "theres an awesome band playing in that building, lay down and you can hear, and see them"

  • clever lol i love raidohead they are awesome :) :) :)

    i think this song and 2 + 2 = 5 would have to be their strongest/best songs...

  • Why oh why did that smug talentless twat Mark Ronson ruin this song?

  • my thoughts exactly man, I saw the mark ronson video in college during film studies, and not a single person mentioned that it was ripping off radioheads video. imbeciles.

  • Is it wrong that I find Thom (lead singer) attractive?!? haha

  • I'm a straight guy and I still find him attractive lol. There is nothing wrong with that right lol?

  • NO! HE IS SEXY

  • awesome video and awesome band. it's conceived very well, but however, I still want to know what he said xD

  • "An alien colony is being fed by humans... You will be consumed, unless you play dead....

    Now, stfu and LEAVE ME ALONE!!!!"

  • wow de video wow¡¡¡ RADIOHEAD DE LO MEJOR¡¡

  • This song is so amazing. The great thing about Radiohead is the variety of their music. They don't just pump out tracks that sound identical. Every piece of music that they produce has a distinct and emotional feel to it. If only there were more bands like this in the modern world, even then I don't know if they would get the recognition they deserve unfortunately.

  • dont beat the bands up for it. its all the friggen derolicks who think rap is "good music" they are killing the music industry... this right here... this is what music is supposed to be. meaningful, good sounding, and actually played with instraments. radiohead is not a band, they are artists...

  • look sayin one whole genre of music ids bad is stupid there are good songs in every genre

  • fair point... i dont mind the odd song here and there from the random genre, i just dont like glorified music. it sorta ruins it for me, thats probabbly why i dont like mainstream...

  • He said "SHUT THE FUCK UP! FUCK STICK!"

  • whats the point of living?...

    you do it to yourself

    we do it to ourselves

    its not important what he said

    dont stuck your mind there..

  • haha you're all doing it to yourselves. You're driving yourself crazy trying to find out what he said.

  • Amazing!!

  • doas anyone know wat he says cause i really wanna know

  • he say "the preasure of the corporations pushed me to the point of become a dumb automat working 45 hours a week dressing like a walrus for someone i dont know and who dont care about side effects of their greed aiming only profit. That causes me walk against my own human nature, so im lying here till i can asume and continue to work" *me faints* :D

  • Don't we all?

  • I can lip read too, he says. "You all suck at Lip Reading."

    But Seriousley I have read sopmany bloody different answers to what he said on this from smart arse, you are all absolute dick twats.

  • lol @ nedett :D

  • Thank you sir.

  • i can lipread. He says:

    "Tilt your head like this. You can hear radiohead playing"

  • I said that first. Nice try :P

  • Just playin' around.

  • the best od the vid is the fact that we don't know what he says, so that everyone can give his own interpretation :)

  • i can read lips very well and he said the lyrics to the song, "you do it to yourself"

  • WTF DOES HE SAY PLEASE TELL  ME

  • he says:

  • whats the point of living?...

    you do it to yourself

    we do it to ourselves

    its not important what he said

    dont stuck your mind there..

  • what a fantastic song by radiohead love the beginnin lyrics

    Cant get the stink off hes been hangin round for days comes like a comet suckered you but not your friends

  • An absolutely great song, and about the ending. There is no right answer, the point of the video isnt what he says. And for the record, he just keeps saying "do you really wanna know" (i know a deaf persson that can read lips) its no point in the exact words hes saying, its the message.

  • wow i love this. go Radiohead. So weird but it makes sence. Whenever your depressed almost no-one can ever understand. Whats he says is whatever you want it to be. the saddest part of you, the part "you do it to yourself"

  • if you look at 3:40 you can see an a or an arrow or something

  • He says "If you tilt your head EXACTLY like this and lay here, you can hear Radiohead playing!"

  • he says "it's the end of the video"

  • im going crazy trying to find out what he says too. but lets all take a moment to forget about that because i dont see any comments talking about how fucking good this song is

  • He says E=MC^2

  • I must admit, it looks like it.

  • what makes this a great video, is that you never do learn what is so depressing that these people just lay there for

  • This is such a great and original song. It's too bad that music like this doesn't come around these days.

  • I totally agree I hate the stupid chart music these days!

  • he says:"down is the new up"

    it's true

  • Awesome :)

  • 10/10

  • rip off of shot by both sides by magazine

  • Comment removed

  • tom looks like john lydon in this video.

  • another great song from radiohead

  • I think he says..'Simon says lie on the sidewalk'

  • Curious ending, what were they thinking?

  • Who Cares what he says, the main thing is that this song is ace and the video is totally Fab, right?

  • no its in the chourus.. "You do it to yourself"

    thats the whole point of the ending

  • like theyve said he doesnt actually say anything important, u cant lipread him to find the meaning. he wont tell them, they demand to know, everyone is fucked human nature aint it.

  • omg your all dumb....he's saying..."if you put your ear to the ground you can hear radiohead playing"

  • even if tht were true, some don't have their ears to the ground but good one

  • u are so wrong dumb shiet.

  • cmoon guys he blatently doesnt say anything to him at the end

    its not waht he says its just the principal

    that he told them they wouldnt want to know

    but they make him tell them

    so then they all hate life and dont see the point anymore

    they "do it to themselvs" if you will

  • This song means that he is lying on the floor becuase he heard sumthing that has to do with "whats the point of living?" and "i`ll just die..."Tom Yorke is so sure that if you hear this you won`t wanna live,he won`t tell ANYBODY what the man said.If it`s that secret,and believe me,you don`t wanna hear what he said.

  • An absoloutley amazing song.

    BUT THE ENDING ANNOYS THE HELL OUT OF ME. haa.

  • the 1st verse is about our sins,guilt,we will never be able to forget them because our conscience,and forgetfullness is temporary,it always come back.the 2nd verse is about how Tom Yorke doesn't feel sympethetic for people who put themselves in positions to feel guilt.

    the video shows that the man on the ground can't live with his guilts any longer,he doesn't want to explain himself to the others,but once he does,they can't live any longer with the sins they have made either.

    my opinion.

  • i think he just said he doesnt feel like doing shit no more. he just wants to lay in the street so that's what he's gonna do and who's gonna stop him.

    very new world order-ish

  • I think the Secret is that we all do it to our-selfs,

    Every bad thing or thought Doesn't matter Who suffers for it, it affects us as much as them

  • TELL ME WHAT HE SAID.

  • i concur!!!

  • Such a masterpiece...

    I'll luv Radiohead 4ever!

  • WHAT ABOUT THE "SONG?"

  • 0:34

    lovely expression

  • the best of radiohead^^

    I love greenwood

  • lol

  • everything else is a theory,

    only radiohead knows what he said...

    ...and i love it! ^_^

  • Or do they?

    /conspiracy!

  • who knows.. ^_^

  • That's what i call feeling!! love tom's moves and of course the video's story although I would really want to know what are the man's words!

  • The whole point of the song has been explained when you ask "What did the man say?". See the people ask what he is doing, why is he doing that, and etc. but he keeps telling them they don't want to know. When they do, they join in on lying down because it affects them too. They literally did it to themselves.

  • Why do the people lying? What did the man say ?

  • you dont want to know

  • I am an atheist, catholics are just as bas as jews.  You know what it's like to not believe in a religion. How? Because you arn't jewish.

  • u need to get out more, u should council teenage girls. u should also be the leader of the ss u anti-semetic jongus. i'm jewish and ur sayin am bad just because im a jew! prick!

  • Faith is the great cop-out, the great excuse to evade the need to think and evaluate evidence. Faith is belief in spite of, even perhaps because of, the lack of evidence. One of the things that is wrong with religion is that it teaches us to be satisfied with answers which are not really answers at all. We are all atheists about most of the gods that societies have ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further.

  • he says....

    'simon says lie down'

    :P

  • "my fake arm works as a really good pillow"

  • this song is about thom's atheist views... like many of there songs. good songs

  • truly amazing:)

  • What it is is the man stops walking when he hears Radiohead playing in the window above him and simply lies down to relax and enjoy the music. And then everyone wants to do the same cause the music is so good.

  • 4:04

    they are all spiraling in towards one woman

  • In my opinion the best radiohead video!!

    en menos de 4 meses vienen a Chile..y podre morir en paz

  • Si, al fin en chile... yo alcance a comprar mi entrada para el primer concieto, se acabaron en 3 dias...

  • the truth...

  • i really want to know what he said!

  • the final riff in this song make me crazy *_*

    the video is awesome

  • it's not delivery, it's digiorno

  • ce clip traite selon moi de l'incapacité a l'homme de rester face au mystere. On veut toujours tout comprendre et tuer le mystere!!!

  • In an interview yorke said that they could never say what he was lying on the ground for, and that if you knew you'd probably want to lie on the ground aswell.

  • looks like he says "see.. *camera angle changes* what i see..." and then you cant see what else he says.

  • its the most unique video ever..but its kind of creepy..when he says god please help us all..damn them..:P

    i believe he didnt say anything..thats what they wanted from the first place..people looking for what he said :P

  • maybe he didn't actually say anything, and it's all in his mind, it's not reality, you know? like when shit happens and someone takes it too harshly or reads into something too much and get upset about something they don't really need to. doing it to yourself for no reason really

  • baahahaha i know someone's gonna vebally kill me for this, but i thought the singer looked clay aiken for a second! ahaha

  • haha i would but i can see it, but in the right light,

    he is still a boss though

  • It means that sometimes you want to be left the fuck alone, or whatever you do, its your own business. And people always try to get to you stereotyping you and stuff; not letting you be, thats my theory.

  • i think he said "this floor feels sooo good!"

    so everyone "fell" to see if he was telling the truth!

    haha,i'm jk :P

    but i love this song :D

  • hmmm.. i wonder wut was that man said..

    i like that unique move when thom sing

  • i read somewhere that thom wrote this about his friend.. how he kept harming himself because of his own self-pity.. it's a statement about how we can't live our lives lying in the middle of the road (metaphorically, of course)

    but that's just my opinion

  • It is certainly one of the most original videos out there.

  • that ending bugs the hell out of me, but its so awseome.

  • the directors probably just told that guy at the end of the video to move his mouth randomly or something like that. now they're having a good laugh at everyone trying to guess what he was saying.

  • I think that he doesn't says anything, just to get ultrafans confused and discussing what he is saying

  • By not knowing what he says or trying to interepret what he is saying, it JUST makes this video all the more amazing.

  • i might be wrong but that was a good pun

  • ok this is my last theory on this

    the dude is a con man, and when he lays on the floor, everyone tries to guess why he's there (like us)

    then he says: 'You've just been Punk'd' ande every one is like.. oooo crap so they lie on the floor because of how bummed they are.

    just think about it, the song says 'You do it to yourself' so yur own curiosity makes yu an idiot.
