Interesting fact:this was the first song I have listened by Radiohead.I have spent the next week listening to this song ONLY.Now I have their discography on repeat every day.I am a happy man.....
this song feels like you're being pounded by a 15ft wave and every now and then you manage to get a short but really relieving breath of air. so awesome... @ everyone that feels negativity from this tune: tho worst song in the world is the one that doesn't make you feel anything = pop music, for me.
There are barn doors And there are revolving doors Doors on the rudders of big ships We are revolving doors There are doors that open by themselves There are sliding doors and there are secret doors There are doors that lock and doors that don't There are doors that let you in and out but never open But they are trapdoors That you can't come back from This masterpiece is just a few lines, and yet its one of my favorites.
Apparently a lot of people don't like this track. Too different for them maybe. If you can't tolerate experimental music then never, ever listen to Radiohead again.
I think Amnesiac is there most disturbing album yet, due to this and like spinning plates, and the lyrics on knives out. I'm surprised so many people rate it so low. It's possibly my favourite of theirs, because it kind of resembles a dream, and different levels of dreams, some scary like this, and some more joyful and happy like life in a glass house.
I've always loved this song, and I've always considered it to be the ugly duckling of the Amnesiac album. I think my sister best described it when she heard it for the first time (at age 14 - Amnesiac was new); she thought of it as "the soundtrack to someone's dream".
I love this song... how is it that Radiohead can make such awesome rock music.. and then make an electronic song like this??? True genius!!!! another thing i wonder is.. how the hell does Thom Yorke come up with these lyrics???
Whoa, slow down there cowboy, I must of hit a nerve didn't I?First of all the term ''crackhead'' applies to alot of aspects when mentioning people doing drugs.Second, don't tell me to shut the fuck up, it's just that alot of people seem that they have to ''enhance'' there listening experience when Radioheads' music is all the psychadelics one would ever need, I'm a pothead myself, but I don't need pot to enhance the music, so calm the fuck down, '' crackhead ''.
What the fuck is up with you fucking crackheads saying that you had to be high to get into Radiohead WTF?If you can't appreciate the genius of this band sober then you've got serious problems, I mean you don't have to be high to get into this music or to ''enhance'' your experience, damn dopefiends.
@mindbender91 Shut the fuck up you ignorant moron...Radiohead is a psychadelic band and this is a psychadelic song...When people are talking about getting high and listening to Radiohead they are talking about mind-expanding drugs like mushrooms not crack you fucking moron...And no, you don't have to be high to appreciate Radiohead...But to "enchance" the music you obviously need something to enhance it...I'm sure a fucking retard like you doesn't know what enhance means though.
Before i smoked i didn't really care much for this song. But after hearing Amnesiac and other Radiohead albums stoned and listening to each song in depth i realized just how good these guys are...now either stoned or sober i can listen to songs like these and they are sooo fucking good
@themitchies Tru, but the point I was trying to make was that Radiohead is creative enough to take an old respected genre and make it something original once more, but not only that but also bring it into the mainstream light
@JaggedSplinter you got it right on point, one day when i was coming back from a class trip to the art museum i fell asleep in the bus and since i had radiohead on shuffle i woke up to this song. it freaked me out but on some serious shit it felt so right that being half asleep i think is the best way to b introduced to the song, now it's one of my top 10 favorites
My fav albums in order:
1. Kid A
2. In Rainbows
3. OK Computer
4. Amnesiac
5. The King of Limbs
6. The Bends
7. Hail To the Thief
8. Pablo Honey
Their first on is their worst one...lol.. goes to show they're fuckin' amazing!!!

As much as I believe that Radiohead are the greatest band of our generation - this is a complete rip off of 'Shiny Metal Rods' by Aphex Twin.

Not complaining though, both songs fuck with my head in an orgasmic way!
