wow - the quasi-human diver is just trying to go back to his submerged home one last time, as the alien craft control the sky (?) - so many ways that Radiohead can present the forlorn hopelessness at the end of the world - it must be really really hard being Thom Yorke :^(
a song to think about yourself as the puny little energy consumer you are. Nothing more than a carbon/nitrogen/oxygen based life form just sapping away nature, time and space with it's selfishness then to die thinking it did something great, when actually it only killed a little more of this planet.
it desolates my mind and my soul to hear this, it kills my hopes, and engorges my fear and doubts,i wish, i wish i could be free, away from society, from you all and all alone build me a new body....
Well, I suppose you must be above everybody else then.
We're all part of this planet, and all part of space and time, whether we like it or not; and energy is infinite. Just a different perspective, that's all.
@Photobyke energy is not infinite, and i said that as a self-experience report, so please understand the despair of the moment and let it flow with the tune here presented.
@Photobyke energy is infinite, because God is infinite, he is upholding it. Naive atheist who tells them selfs, that we are in this Infinite universe, where only 1 single planet contains living creatures, Human beings & Animals, if we were evolved from chimpanzees ? why is there Chimpanzees now 5 million years after the evolving took place ^^ ?
Guess evolution took a vacation huh ;) Do you see yourself as a person with a Soul ? or are you just an animal ?
Animals and other living creatures are just physical vehicles for "something" to move around in and relate to the physical world. What the something is, we are unable to determine.
@mukkohaha Mate, no offend but your lack of understanding about Biology, Evolution Theory exactly, is what makes you theist naive. We are not evolved from chimpanzees, okay? We and chimpanzees share the same ancestor. Richard Dawkins and plenty of other scientist have answered this question.
The path of wisdom requires seeking. You know how to make the question, but never seek to answer it. Sapere Aude!
[Seems I've just make another useless debate on a brilliant Radiohead's song, yes? :P]
Well it's truly about death. The little row boat that takes u to the last destination we will all end up. All past and future lovers will be there with me, future (those to come) after he dies they also will meet him at the other side. It's simply beautiful u can put this subject in combination with such great music. And it surely sends down chills down my spine to listen it...
back in 2001 i first heard this song alone, and it scared the shit out of me. But I couldn't stop listening to it. I was experimenting with different sounds, and because of this song, it change my way of listening to music. I've been a Radiohead fan since then, and I still get goosebumps. Truly Brilliant
@kato76109 That's a kind of cool story. Amazing how one act, even just one song, can have an affect like that on a person for the rest of his/her life. Certainly Radiohead has the capability of doing that.
Oh, this video is awesome ) I have a new upload too, a music video from alternative band Plastic Barricades. Please be free to check it out! If you like this song, maybe you'll like ours too.
I have significant difficulty imagining a more befitting visual accompaniment to this lilting, somewhat melancholic sonic atmosphere. Only Radiohead possess this kind of magic ability to turn a rather dim message about mankind's unfortunate proclivity for self-annihilation into something so beautiful & moving. No easy feat within a consumer-culture-majority who seem to prefer blindness, illusion, and apathy to that of reality.
@sjarimon I thought it alternated between 9/8 and 6/8, though there are so many changes to and from the off-beat that there are probably several time-signatures depending how you look at it. It's just as subjective as the song's allusion to fear being purely in the mind.
It may well be why they created such an ambiguous rhythm in the first place.
This is sad but beautiful because in a world full of fear, we realise its all an illusion and that even upon death, there is truly nothing to fear and nothing to doubt.
inb4 someone says this song is about drugs. When people can't decipher songs they always go for the easy alternative: "Pyramid song? Don't understand it. Must be about an lsd trip!"
@o0TheOnlySeb0o veronika decides to die looks like this song, but it's actually a piano version of "everything in it's right place", with some piano chords from this song...."
Said It Was Most Fav Song among Teenager suicidal in Japan and All Asia....No wonder can you feel the desperate vibe within the song....if im suicidal too im definit gone choose this song...Whuahahhhaaa....Nope I Love my life and I Love Radiohead...
.. The essence of the vibes seen here are able to carry anyone into an ethereal dominion for 5:03 mins, one of the flawless aspects this composition was gifted with by Thom .. Peace.
