  • @Sinista415 No, the other guy was right.

  • Comment removed

  • I wish Cee Lo Green would cover this song.

  • my favorite!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • That was FUCKING AWESOME.

  • This makes me smile! : )

  • I loved radiohead for years, but only someone who doesn't actually know much about hip hop would call this rap. just enjoy the song for what it is (and it is awesome).

  • @waleoyejide

    you are completely right

  • @waleoyejide GUESS WHAT BUDDY FUCK YOU AND YOUR OPINION

  • @waleoyejide It's a joke...

  • This song is so unbelievably unique. It combines rap and progressive alternative in a way that is incredibly brilliant. I can comfortably say that Radiohead is one of the greatest bands ever!

  • Unparalleled songwriting

  • T-York, you so mad

  • Haha... Thom Yorke rapping... Love it! :))

  • Hey could someone help me out by telling me what Synth Thom's playing? Thanks!

  • phil's fills was just too classy !

  • @aRubberSoul I hope that's true, that would be sweet

  • Comment removed

  • So much better than the studio version....

  • is this rap? because I like it a LOT and I don't want it to be rap....?!

  • @takovarra Why not? You have heard how it sounds, what does it matter if it's considered rap or not. It isn't going to make it any worse.

  • @takovarra Wow you're an idiot, much? Shut up, who cares if it's rap or not.

  • @theringodd well first you are an idiot and the second I care

  • @takovarra Oh right? I bet everyone would agree with me if I said that it's foolish to hate a song you like when you find out it's "rap".

  • @takovarra lol i thought the same thing

  • @squiresuzuki WOW. Just WOW. Your comment is fucking pathetic! I LOVE Ed O'brien! WOW. He completes the band dumbass and he is a great guitarist!!! and they are ALL equally amazing. GTFO!

  • @94greenfreak You're right, he does complete them. I was a noob. sorry

  • Not sure if anyone knows, but what is that little keyboard/synth Thom's playing during the chorus?

  • where's thom's bling??

  • Damn when he's not strumming acoustic, dude gets into his lyrics! I love Radiohead

  • sexiest thing ever

  • Serieusly why does he looks like hes rapping. To be honest it looks a bit ridiculious. Who agrees and who doesnt?

  • @akatsukiandy

    I think he's cool enough to pull it off.

  • @akatsukiandy ... I agree. It`s a great song, but when he`s `rapping` it on stage it looks pretty silly... but maybe that`s the point.... British humour taking the piss out of all rappers that - let`s face it - all look ridiculous....?

  • @akatsukiandy ....Trying to keep pointless RAP From the Door?

  • @akatsukiandy it's just Thom's style, he goes crazy on stage.

  • @akatsukiandy I think he looks bad-ass

  • Did you piece this together from various fan cam angles? If so, GREAT JOB. Especially the "Put me inside" part at 0:54, brilliant!

  • fucking badass

  • this was my favorite song when I saw them live. it suprised me because it wasn't one of my favorites from the album.

  • radiohead is the best band ever... fantastic song....

  • wow... INCREIBLE CHIKO!! ...

  • great song from a great album!

  • i must see radiohead!!

    why is it they wont make the trip out to australia?

  • i know!!!! i want them here in australia

  • There's a clip on them going on Meeting People is Easy, but they never seem down here. :(

  • This song looks great live!

  • not the most conventional classic radiohead song but no other band on the planet could ever have made this work

  • Comment removed

  • A Wolf At The Door :)

  • Thom is a better rapper than rappers these days.

  • omg, this isn't rap. its a lovely different thing

  • Thom is bringing the Old School back!!!

  • He can even rap. *.* perfect

  • Putain mais pour moi, y a rien de plus authentique que ce que fais ce groupe. C'est d'un esthétique musical si réel, que ça en devient beau, criard de vérité. Radiohead, est la tristesse devient belle.

    Plus qu'un groupe, un message, un appel !

    au passage, préservons la nature... merci.

  • radIoHe@D The BEst Band

  • Super, we steal a lot from these guys.Agree?

    Die for city

  • PERFECT ! clap clap clap

    Love

  • Love this song..

  • this performance is amanzing !

  • love how they do that cool electronic thing at the end of both choruses. they never leave anything out for the live performances

  • for such a successful band they keep an admirably low profile off stage.

  • Someone needs to swap the audio of this video with some NWA.

  • Comment removed

  • The holocaust was not intended to make everyone equal, that is the most ridiculous thing i have ever heard. The holocaust was an effort to eradicate all "lesser forms of human life".

  • awesome comment war below

  • Holooooo

  • nothin like unintelligent ignorant nerds on the internet hating on radiohead lol

  • fuckin brilliant. Love it when he does the shaman routine

  • best live band today no question saw them this summer at all points west, was one of the best moments of my life and im not just a loser, it was just purely amazing.

  • i LOVE this song

  • magnifique!! tout simplement magnifique...

  • couldn't be more wrong

  • couldn't be more right cocksucker

  • I'd love to see them, tell you what...let's exchange memories :)

  • Hamgammy, you say you've seen em three times and they sucked every time ... what kind of a knob would go again to see a band they think sucked, not once, but two more times?

    I have two things on my 'to do' list ... one is to run a marathon and the other is to see Radiohead live.

  • People who type in text speak are not likely to have the faculties to appreciate Radiohead.

  • This latest comment of yours hasn't enhanced your chances of having your opinion about Radiohead or anything else given any regard

  • I wasn't commenting on your opinion I was commenting on you saying you hope I or someone I love dies of cancer. That's not an opinion it's a malediction. But now you've said God Bless you've reversed the curse so I guess we're good now

  • ya i meant to say "i hope you or someone you love has thighs of a dancer"

    so that they could dance to this song because it would be a pity if they couldnt

  • Well especially as Thom sings "Dance you fucker dance you fucker" in this very song

  • haha, yea, everyone is entitled to an opinion. but it is actually people that say things like "people like you are to blame for this" that started the Holocaust (Nazi Germany blamed the Jews for their economic problems)

    and you are also wrong saying that everyone is equal.

    NO ONE IS EQUAL

  • it is people who said that NO ONE IS EQUAL who are to blame that started the Holocaust (Nazi Germany claimed that the Aryan race was superior to the Jews, Homosexuals, Disabled, etc.)

  • Not that this is the right place for a discussion like this, but I'd just like to point out that you guys should probably not bother discussing something without doing the research for it first. Major events such as WW2 are rather complex and simply can't be summed up by so and so saying such and such. Also, equal rights shouldn't be confused with equality. People aren't equal, however they should have some basic equal rights and duties. Hope that clears something up. Cheers.

  • iq<50

  • Whaaat. I can't believe you thought they were bad! They were AMAZING when I saw them on the In Rainbows tour. No aspect of their performance suffers live; in fact they're one of only a few bands whose live stuff I actually sometimes prefer to the album versions (ever heard Where I End and You Begin live? Holy !$@*%!, it's incredible.) I thought they were fantastic live, and didn't think anyone could possibly disagree! Why is it that you thought they were so bad out of interest?

  • besides for the screaming fans, this sounds just like the album version! they hav real talent, unlike half of the musicians u see out there 2dayy

  • one of their greatest song. so intense.

  • i love it its so aggresive live

  • prefer the album version

  • This IS the sexiest thing :) I love Thom Yorke! And he does such amazing dances!

  • this is the sexiest thing i have ever seen

  • such a great song

  • yee thom's such a rapper go thom!

  • God bless Radiohead. Amen.

  • I hear more similarities to the beginning of this and the beginning of "Sun King" by The Beatles.

  • She's So Heavy anyone?

  • lol yeah i thought the same thing

  • nothing else matters metallica. also. damn i love all of these songs. haha.

  • I love this song. Funny thing is apparently this wasnt even supposed to be on the album. (the verse anyway) just the chorus, suprisingly the song origionally was composed of the verse from Nude (in Rainbows) and the chorus of this song. not sure how they mixed them up though.

  • esmortis, where did you hear that information? I don't think that's true? Especially the bit about Nude. From what I heard the song was originally an instrumental written by Jonny, and later Thom wrote the melody and lyrics for it. So it was composed very much in the same manner as Faust Arp. If you listen closely, the two songs are even quite similar, especially the rhythmic structure of the verse.

  • fukin love this song - but dont squeel to the cops.

  • Seems like a very hard song to sing....

  • Something about Thom in this video makes me think of a character being played by Simon Pegg. At least until he starts Thom-dancing at around 2 minutes.

  • whoa!! never seen thom sing like that

    he looks like a rapper or something lol

    great song

  • HTTT is in my opinion their best album, after Kid A and Amnesiac, and this song is the best of this album with "Stand Up. Sit down".

    In Rainbows is a good album, especially "Reckoner" or "15 step" but it's not as good as before... But i'm sure that Radiohead will always be one of the best bands ever heard!

  • Great tune,great album,great band ...and the odd annoying viewer =)

  • Thom looks ghetto rapping like that :)

  • oh, i would kill to see him rap

  • my favourite song off my favourite album, performed brilliantly! i just love Radiohead.

  • unbelievably fantastic.. gives ya chills... thanx 4 posting this.. saw em do this summer of 07 in san diego.. blew me away man. they are so good its stratisperic

  • And leave The Eraser alone, please, it's not a Radiohead album.

    I don't know how ANYONE in their right fucken mind could say that they want to get rid of 2/3 of amazing CLASSIC Radiohead/Thom Yorke material. This gets me so fucking angry, SO angry. I think if you guys were in front of me right now, I'd punch you right in the face. I'm sorry , but I'm totally serious. Just...ARGGGGGGG!

  • Comment removed

  • nah nah nah. i think that every song on the last two are good. there are no bad radiohead songs in my opinion.

  • Its Radiohead, not Thom Yorye you div

  • Yes, HTTT IS as good as anything Radiohead have ever done. I don't care what Thom thinks, he can go fuck himself for all I care. Learn to think for yourself, Kurtis.

  • Comment removed

  • technically they didn't work on it the least. it;s just that they were prepared and all the song had been rehearsed before they went into the studio. by the sound of it, thom was on a roll, he send 3 demos with like 20 or 30 songs on each, and they picked the best of the crop. imo, it was their most prolific and productive period, and i think HTTT captured it perfectly. it was just like there was a burden and they just had to blow that load. as opposed to IR, where it was like pulling teeth.

  • like i said, it's your opinion you're entitled to it. but at the same time, if you don't like the album it's your loss cause the album is great. what i don't get is why are you sweating so much over it trying to prove to people that the album that they genuinely love is shit. i just don't get it. you don't like it, we got your point.

  • Phil Selway does not suck at drums.

    Proof: Scatterbrain, Paranoid Android, Subterranean Homesick Alien, Optimistic, Pyramid Song, Knives Out, Go To Sleep, Where I End And You Begin, Myxomatosis, Reckoner.

    So.. you're an ignorant douche.

  • He's not a good drummer? Where in the fuck you get that from? Listen to this song, man. How is he a bad drummer?

    Stop pulling ignorant opinions out your ass.

  • He's a very good drummer. And different as well

  • no, He's a good drummer.

  • where did u ever get hes not a good drummer im a drummer myself and i would kill to be as good as he is like ok computer and pablo honey dont really have that difficult of drum beats in most songs but every other album especially the bends has amazing beats and fills

  • someone needs a stabbin

  • i don't agree. but sure, you're entitled to your opinion, or delusion...whchever it is. i don't really care. you keep saying that the drums suck, the production suck, this and that. but i very much doubt that you yourself know anything about making or producing music, cause all the musicians that i personally know regard HTTT is one of radiohead's best albums for its complexity, and i haven't heard any of them mention that there's anything wrong with the production.

  • Comment removed

  • ok well maybe we can stop now.

  • actually on the second thought Kid A/Amnesiac was probably as prolific as HTTT. but anyway, those 3 are their best albums imo. then there was the Eraser, the last echo of the mighty band as we knew it. and then there was the twee sugar saturated atrocity that is In Rainblows.

  • It's Pablo Honey not Money

  • no shit sherlock

  • that was for dropkickchesterator

  • Stop the insanity, people! Both Hail to the Thief and In Rainbows are brilliant albums, totally different but excellent each in its own right. And Rrambler, have you seen the In Rainbows Live From The Basement video album? Go get it on iTunes, I'm sure it'll rekindle your love for In Rainbows.

  • Comment removed

  • No, I know in my heart that you're absolutely out of your bloody mind! Hail to the Thief IS as good as OK Computer, Kid A and Amnesiac. End of story.
