[ben6688100]

funny looking guys!! but amazing band.

[jaytv777]

what an amazingly blessed band to have such a great vocalist and guitarist..lucky fuckers!

[acev127]

Best performance ive heard of this song, i laughed at jonny randomly going crazy

[koreecorrea1111]

My all time favorite Radiohead song, lovvve it so much xxoo!!!

[MCshlthead]

wow the best performance of this song iv heard. i thought the album version was a bit bland to be honest and couldn't understand how much hype it got, but this is magnificent.

[raphylv30]

Love how Jonny goes crazy in the middle of the song. That's so epic.

[ibbotsoni]

The guitar part at the end that Jonny plays (was it created on a faraway planet where other life exists?), combined with those beautifully strummed chords. And a voice...

One of the greatest songs ever written.

[JJ122591]

I love how Phil is suited-up!

[deandave24]

@fakeplasticradiohead

could you tag Jonathan Ross in the video tags, or put it in the title please? I keep forgetting how to find this video! haha

[FreedomIsJustAWord]

[katenzcool]

Happy birthday Jonny!

[jbean9021]

[coconutman1987]

[jbean9021]

@coconutman1987

[agk971]

@jbean9021 i know what you mean :L

[wantsomecake328]

Yeah Jonny! Make that guitar your bitch!

[phantomdoodler]

invisible elf ears

[chino0moreno]

Am i the only one who though he had some fake plastic ears?

[whitesnowyheart]

The name of this song is "fake plastic tree".

But in my heart, I call it "true precious song".

[damareavi]

@whitesnowyheart

[Mayna00]

I love how Wossy very sneakily hands Thom the CD again, when it was pretty obvious from the interview before that he didn't really want it =P

*sigh* I love Thom Yorke <3

[grimcaminator]

What show is this?

[JacobMorrisNinetyTwo]

@grimcaminator Friday Night with Jonathan Ross - Used to be on the BBC quite alot, it saw its last episode a few fridays ago.

[one0man0band]

@grimcaminator Friday Night With Jonathan Ross formally shown on BBC1. It had its final run between January and June 2010.

[memorybabe1954]

Sublime vocal

[LoomVideos]

i dont understand how 7 people can dislike this? no soul?

[NellHJ]

@LoomVideos Maybe they got confused clinking on the 'Like' button ;)

[wally1979]

@LoomVideos coldplay fans...

[MadamKamikaze]

Song fit perfectly with the interview...

[mynameissol]

@MadamKamikaze the first is Amaj7 and the second is Bm11

[khpunkrock]

[YoungBass182]

@khpunkrock Dsus2 or Amaj

[khpunkrock]

@YoungBass182 thanks..but are u sure?Dsus2 in fret 17?

[YoungBass182]

@khpunkrock nope, the regular Dsus2:

[khpunkrock]

[ddrluver]

Still get blown away, no matter how many times I've heard this song.

[cowmanman]

god wadiohead should stop ripping off coldplay lol

[spencerkeegan]

@cowmanman

I really do hope you're kidding

[PyroPrincess33]

@cowmanman Radiohead came before Colplay. Even Chris Martin admits that Radiohead is the real 'trailblazer.'

[cowmanman]

@PyroPrincess33 dont worry i kno it was a joke

[khpunkrock]

[cacaolover1]

Radiohead write some of the most delightfully heartbreaking songs

[importantwoman]

LMFAO

[cicaesp2]

[NishSequeira]

[alesancort30]

[importantwoman]

[pegamoide12345]

[iamcalledfrankie]

so beautiful you thought you'd share this with strangers on youtube. It's a shame you feel the need to lie about having sex

[MarineDelta1]

o jesus christ man he wrecked the fuck out of you!

[iamcalledfrankie]

hahah

[Ansceles]

When it's at just the right angle, those cords on Thom's head make it look like he has elf ears.

[mattcav221]

jonny looks like such a badass when he thrashes away on the guitar. i wish i looked that fuckin cool when i play my guitar haha

[MaikMagee]

Good god, he's got small hands!

[Rockinrub]

@MaikMagee They are big enough to be the hands of the worlds best band!

[MaikMagee]

Agree... and he's an amazing guitarist with those hands :D

[Amnesiacmidnitetoker]

so his a badass his 5'5 and has more power then a fucking sun his beyond human.his fucking brilliant!!

[franzferdinand345]

beauty :)

[Bonzokid1]

apparently its about canary warf...sorry if that spelt wrong...im from the country you see so you know canary warf means nothing to me!!!

[DementedBoosh]

haha its so weird with you saying "a british TV show". it seems unbelievable as a born and bred londoner that you dont know this show HOW CAN YOU NOT KNOW IT :|

[jimmyn28]

I came.

[lewecca]

so good. i think he glastonury one might be a little better though

[copiuslean]

I raged

[feliperamir]

perfect

[JazzmanLaw09]

MCR as in My Chemical Romance?... As in My Chemical Romance, the band formed in 2001?... As in My Chemical Romance, the band formed at least 7 YEARS AFTER this song was wrote?!?

[nflhester3]

@JazzmanLaw09 who is my chemical romance....don't tell me either

[daurpm]

wtf??? thats the most stupid statement ive ever read... mcr didnt even exist when they wrote the song...

[qhfgfg665435]

The radioheads were trying to camaflarj the fact that the playjerized MCR by recording it decade before.

[daurpm]

lool

[fackin69]

you are a fucking idot

[qhfgfg665435]

Dude, try harder to avoid irony.

[Scttrbrain7]

This is one of the funniest comments I've ever read! lol

[qhfgfg665435]

Why thank you.

[SomewhereImNot1]

idiot.

[qhfgfg665435]

And why's that?

[SomewhereImNot1]

How could this be a rip off of MCR, this song was written around 1994, maybe even earlier.

watch?v=hQlPiOlcuYc

[nameless12345]

some kind of troll. or it was a fucking joke possibleh

[letchford]

So what happened to the Eurovision entry?

[gilbertgodlyddd]

Wow.

[Andygray87]

FUCKING AMAZING!

[TheBarneym]

It's Wadiohead with fake plastic twees

[boooogerbrain]

@TheBarneym pwastic

[breachmania]

@olavm91 Well I thought it was funny...

[damareavi]

@TheBarneym hahahaha XD Yeaah!

[ItsameAlex]

@TheBarneym

pronounced the r properly................I thought he couldn't say 'r's?

[iCallumx]

@TheBarneym LOL!

[grf0492]

lol, the wires make Thom look like an elf. hahaha. Great song, though.

[breachmania]

@grf0492 yeah and the clothes to make it too haha!

[umcaraoriginal]

wonderful

[Manics1989]

I just teared up!

[JamesMusicforlife]

to me it sounds like a phaser and tremolo

[asdf3455656]

Truly Brilliant, beautiful, amazing.

[AwesomeBuddy12]

Jonny is useing a EHX Small stone for that sound.

[JohnnyJohnnyJohnny]

Sounds like a chorus and a tremolo.

It almost reminds me of a MuRF.

Who knows, he was really big into that Max/MSP shit around that time as well...

[AwesomeBuddy12]

Well i think he uses phaser, tremolo, delay, reverb, and a digitech whammy. He's useing the whammy to change the pitch.

[JohnnyJohnnyJohnny]

True, but even then there's not the typical ringmod sound to the clean tone of a digitech whammy.

But yeah. Definitely a decent stack of things going on there.

[BrendanOC]

The pitch changing shit is the bollocks. It blows my mind, its not that complicated but sounds awesome

[IKilledElviss]

Notice how Jonathan manages to say Radiohead not Wadiohead lol

[pickledswizzle]

what effect is jonny using at 4:20? it sounds great. i love this song so much, and as usual its heaven live

[diegosebafiglop]

he is probably just playing with the wah pedal

[pickledswizzle]

i dunno it sounds more like a chorus or phaser to me

[diegosebafiglop]

Yep , probably he is using a chorus and a wah pedal

[cokursh]

PERFECT as usual. RADIOHEAD is best live

[WahuCarol]

ps... anybody got this in HD?

[damndirtyRob]

wadiowed with wake waswic wees

[simplelife88393]

It only works with R's

[marszgee]

he don't want the CD? hahahaha

[oaoaoa04]

good!!....

[klleskrus]

make me cry...

thanks

[nightXstalker4]

just by hearing this i would never guess it was live

great performance

[barnitube]

que bonita cancion¡¡¡

[eva12ar]

great performance...

[mamakin1973]

my favorite performance of this song =)

[Dieguinho92]

really? have you seen their glastonbury 03 one?

[DEFGI]

oh yeah! you'll be pushed to find a performance better than the Glasto 2003 one

[DrLestai]

I think I actually like the Saitama 2008 performance better.

It's a hard decision, though.

[OlympiaOverdrive]

His voice is fantastic. I don't think many else can compare.

[zerochance01]

BEST BAND EVER

[PERSONIFICATIONOFYAY]

Very rarely do I say this, but I agree.

[loko5555]

this is the fake plastic earth and it waears us out

[numbxnumb]

none of comment of ours could be enough for this...

[xAMPUTECHTx]

I keep coming back to this amazing song. Love it.

[MikeDrewYT]

Vocal is sublime here. After all those years. What a pro.

[u2forinterpol]

your not english r u

[RPete100]

This song reminds me of her, because she said to me that it reminds her of me. Now that she is with him, this is all I have of her....memories. Fake Plastic Trees reminds me of her now in only the best possible way.

[happysappy21]

I hear ya brother

[AGunNamedExtinction]

Oh Jesus...

[Tweeter5004]

I love Radiohead! and I love all of you for having great music taste, Lets all get together! lol

[brumby272727]

I love Radiohead! But Thom Yorke's earpieces make him look like he has big pointy ears! :D

[luckyeez]

one of the few songs that still gives me goosebumps after all this years.

All Hail Radiohead.

[JamesMusicforlife]

this is fucking amazing Radiohead is the best band in the world

[GrowTheCaine]

i dunno theres a lot of good bands out there but their deffinitly sittin up there with the few good bands that are still alive...thank god!

[JamesMusicforlife]

actually yeah but radiohead is still great

[GrowTheCaine]

i didnt say they werent great but its not like u can say theyre the awesomest band ever im just sayin theyre still one of the best bands around doing what they do best as apposed to what ppl want them to do but theres also other bands as well to consider

[JAK2112]

why can't you say their the awesomest band ever? Just because you don't think they are? Or because its grammatically incorrect?

All kidding aside, i understand if you don't think they're the best band in the world. I'd understand if you don't like em at all. But you shouldn't say that nobody can think their the best band in the world. I personally think they're up in the top 5 or ten at least.

[GrowTheCaine]

no ur not understanding no band can be the greatest band in the world because each and everyone is different unless the band in question is so plastic its not even funny but there is no question Radiohead is awesome but not the greatest because its entirely impossible but i agree they are one of the greatest

[JAK2112]

Ohhh, ok. Glad to clear that up :)

[richyg1991]

but they are the "most awsomest band" in the world in the genre's of music they play :P haha

[OnYouthfulCynicism]

Perhaps one of the most beautiful songs ever recorded; easily, that I have heard. Thom's voice is angelic. I think I've listened to this song every day since I first heard it.

[ComradeNu]

his voice is very angelic, but yet so tormented... I struggle to think of a singer to compre hi to (I don't think there is one)

[OnYouthfulCynicism]

The one one I can think of is Jeff Buckley, whom Thom has explicitly named as an influence. Check out Mojo Pin, Grace, or Lover You Should Have Come Over.

[whyishow]

I think i read somewhere that thom actually recorded this song with jeff buckley's style in mind

[zerochance01]

they came back from a Jeff Buckley concert then recorded it

[DeLoi123]

Is Thom supposed to look like an elf?

And yes, he DOES have the best voice in the world. Speakers and earphones doesn't fucking justify it.

[googenshlagen]

Bass could be a bit less.

But still...Radiohead. Can that a synonym for godly?

[thedeedpoll]

the more i listen, the more it comes clear that thom yorke has got the greatest voice in the world. noone comes close.

[fezzakat]

An amazing performance of quite possibley my favourite radiohead song...love it

[Ferdie123]

I know they make a point of being constantly inovative, but I just wish they went back to this style at least one more time

[Steddycam]

This is far and away THE BEST version I have ever heard (and yes, I include the original recording on The Bends). The way he sings "but I cant help the feeling!" I want to cry its so raw and amazing.

[caltrof]

Thom's voice sounds amazing in this performance

[nathuntfantasy]

Always does

[fredthommo]

awesome!!!

[errigal6]

classic performance soaring near perfection "gravity always wins" and these guys can float!!!

[coldplay143]

thom's voice is amazing...

[eguiat]

why am i crying when i listen to this?

[unusuality]

because it is extremely beautiful song and I cry too
