Radiohead Pyramid Song Wolverhampton

[djdj42]

SUPER GREATNESS = JONNY

[skywardism]

This is the best song they have ever written

[ColdplayingFull]

More beautiful...imposible..

[soleiloceans]

So there is a God?

[YorkeBellamy7]

wow!! Jonny is fantastic.. hes an alien xD

[XmissXalyssX]

Oh my god. This is better than a double rainbow.

[missflierg]

JUST PERFECT!!!

[2And2AlwaysMakeUp5]

Yeah, what Jonny's doing with his guitar is amazing and all, but what about Phil's drumming? Although it isn't in this video it's amazing he's able to keep in 4/4 time with the syncopated piano and complicated drum rhythm.

[Megato]

@2And2AlwaysMakeUp5 I agree, that had to have been mind bendingly difficult to focus that hard.

[MIKEDURSTEWITZ]

This song reduces me to tears.

seeing Johnny bowing his guitar just makes this orgasmic

[laruecarock]

Does someone know that effect uses?

[20SAULiO91]

he writes his own effects.

whack in jonny greenwood on youtube and its one of the first up

[viewtifuldario]

he looks like an angel

[BlackIroni]

"black-eyed angels swimming with me " ;)

[irenequeen93]

increible

[goodandawesome]

i always get lost with the tempo of this track, when in fact it's 4/4. Radiohead are geniuses.

[pimtenhave1]

it's not 4/4. i'ts 11/4

[goodandawesome]

you can interpret it in a lot of ways, but listen to the cymbal when the drums kick in and start counting each time it hits. you'll get 4/4. piano & drums emphasised at odd moments give the illusion of it having a weird signature when in fact it's 4/4.

[WretchedArt]

really? didn't know that

[brilliantred]

check out my videos, ive posted it with a click track in 4/4

[DanBL0N00]

wow, it adds such an ambient mysterious white noise to the song, and i love it

[crubba]

where's his ondes martenot?

[drakeiscool67]

at :11 He Looks Like An Angel In The Bright Light!!

[Papadupulous]

@drakeiscool67 You mean he isn't?

[rawwqq]

He's divine! Do I hear another "bigger than jesus" quote coming on?

[thomasmolander]

to the person who had these seats-

fight me.

[simplelife88393]

That just looks God-like

[Aether77]

i hate people who think that just because artists use a bow on a guitar that they're copying. grow up, please. i've seen it on other vids too.

i love this intro with the bow, it makes it sound so ethereal.

[darwinator12932112]

in theory cant you use the e bow?to create a similar sound?maybe a bit more errie because of the susutain?

[Aether77]

I think yeah in theory you could. I think it's more though that the bow makes Jonny's Starcaster sound a lot like a cello rather than having more sustain about it - however I'm hoping to get an ebow soon for stuff like this, so yeah you're probs right. :)

[xwspolly]

I LOVE JONNY!

I LOVE HIM.

[ofarevolution441]

i love that screenshot... it's crazy.

[guitarzpurenoise]

what a wonderful song...

they're genius...

[gundamfortress]

GREAT otherwordly song and video!

[slicebo123]

does anyone have pictures of this exact shot... the effect of the light and shadow is just amazing

[starstorm2]

I'm sure I read somewhere that Jonny trained as a viola player as a child. Anyway he does bow the guitar very very gracefully in this vid. Waiting patient - ly for the album.

[leadbellydan]

yea hes a classically trained musician - he plays viola and all kinds of other stuff.

[jw182]

man...if i was gay...jonny...starcaster...cel­lo bow...hotel room.

seriously.

[JohnStark]

could i join you?

[XxGlamisDunerxX]

You are gay for thinking that

[jaybals]

im not gay... i still would...

[ace88480]

lol

[bussingstop]

i can hear it, its like the ambient "whale" sounds, if thats what you would call it. colin used to do them on his bass from 2001 to 2004.

[hobmcd]

I went the night before, and forgot my camera. So I gave it to my mate max who went to this performance.

Got a nice photo of it: http://www.flickr.com/photos/h­ob/214713217/

[brenchen]

gorgeous picture

[vman510]

all of the clips by sandgrown at this show are amazing...great job

[Noonday100]

Stuuuuuuw-dants! You're all wrong!!!

The first guy to bow the guitar was Eddie Phillips from the '60s Mod band The Creation.

Evidence?

[yummy314159265]

in any case, jonny looks like a "black eyed angel"!

[Booh4]

Oh yeah, Jonny is like an angel, ahhhhhh... he's so beautiful -and an excellent musician too xDDDD

[Johnny6666]

Heh - and not even Jimmy Page was the first! He picked it up from another session musician!

[Jabberjaw17]

If you want to get technical about it - Jimmy Page was doing this long ago.

[JohnyJoe]

Radiohead and Sigur Ros are the only too bands alowed to do this. They're the only two bands who CAN do this amazingly.

Just make sure you don't think Radiohead invented this. Sigur Ros did.

[Longhorn2X]

Only too? lol. Jabber is right, Jimmy Page did it first.

[JohnyJoe]

Modern bands?

[mattrobbo]

just think about jimmy page doing this like 30 years ago...

[StellasAntics]

word.

[kristiansharpe]

Quote: Johny Joe, "Just make sure you don't think Radiohead invented this. Sigur Ros did" erm, [Citation needed]

[somethingagainstu]

no, look up Led Zeppelin.

[rdrik]

jimmy page

[Phimpan]

lol you suck Kristian

[ranchoelcarajo]

incredible!!! I was left speechless! 

[radiomaze]

Jonny!Jonny!Jonny!

[wwwdotOKdotCOMputer]

i don't hear his guitar

[willard2600]

If you listen closely you will, its a kind of ambient sound.

[Gubrusch]
