Thom Yorke - Harrowdown Hill

[depp8793]

I love love love this song!!!!! =D

[No1Significant1]

The instrumentals at 0:03 and 4:20 onward cracked me up. Reminded me of a twisted version of the instrumental intro to Fraggle Rock.

[usernamepwc]

This song is haunting. Especially once you learn the context.

[HayleeyBayleey]

Thank you Pandora.

[LightningAlgae]

@samwiseurgh 1. so you post on british music?

2. there's this thing called a job, many of us have one. you might want to consider it as an option.

3. there's also this thing called public education. I believe you're familiar with the term.

4. it's also not capitalism, it's corporatism that has been fucking the US in the ass. capitalism is the creation of capital gained through adding something to the economy. What you're talking about is the induction of debt through mysterious inflation (cont.)

[AleXMdN1]

@LightningAlgae that's not capitalism, that's a shit definition

[LightningAlgae]

@samwiseurgh 4. (cont.) of health care and post-secondary education costs which, though serious problems, are not caused by capitalism.

[Lioness0070]

Replay, replay, replay, like, like like,

[AManUnitedSupporter]

He writes great lyrics and has an amazing haunting voice........

[Oloimpresive]

I love how eraser removes pyramid all seying eye, you can see in waves

[beatles820]

best part 3:27

[godsmistake01]

Anyone else feels as if you were falling from the Harrowdown Hill at 4:12?

[beni0225]

@godsmistake01 i feel it at 4:39

[jorjeGreece]

how can his head carry such an enormous mind ?

[scip0131]

@jorjeGreece He has the same size brain as everyone else.

[BuhAsSkill]

@jorjeGreece yeah, he has an universe inside his head xD

[GettingPsychedelic]

On the attorney general's decision not to ask for an inquest into his death, I'd say he was pushed...

[AwesomeCoasters]

The bass on this song is so atmospheric, so beautiful, so fitting, so... essential to the the song... yet so simplistic.

[richy12377]

I love statements like this song, Thom Yorke has balls...and on top of that a genius.

[benkhw]

somehow this song goes well with girls making out

[skywalk553]

Did you fall or were you pushed? If you fell, I believe it is because you collapsed under the weight of what you had found out and that the only way to protect those nearest to you from what you had learned was to snuff it. If you were pushed, I believe someone didn't want you to testify any of what you had learned. Either way Dr. Kelly...I commend you. And may you forever be immortalized in this song.

[cawthy07]

does anybody know if this song is about dr david kelly or is it just a coincedence?

[MysticalCow1996]

@cawthy07 it is :)

[SakutheKQ]

What the fuck is a hutch.

[Jowsefwood]

@SakutheKQ A cabinet.

[jenniferjjjx]

This song is so sick. I love Thom Yorke! If you like this song, you should check out 'An Endless Lullaby' by Ali Murray, or anything by Ali Murray for that matter. It's so sad and atmospheric and beautiful in the same way as this song. Makes me cry...

[teknohead1970]

special song.x



[abstractpercussion]

Dude this is so far my favorite song on the album mind Black Swam. The vocal pattern(s) Thom uses are just so unique in terms of both his musical career and Radiohead/Thom Yorke sounding groups.

[imstillalive]

This is just beautiful.

*mental-note to check that Eraser-thingy*

[roleismos]

so so so beautiful

[alexandersghost]

two words for Thom York right now.... Thank You

[ZamoraForEngland]

Hutch sent me :)

[DJTJ1001]

I love how hutch's fanboy's come here trying to bring their cod in jokes here. Lol. Leave great music alone D:

[jwsmitty80]

WTF is this shit? Thanks a lot Hutch, think my ears just threw up.

[kiandeheshti]

[ADIZZYSN1PER]

[Falcon4105]

@ADIZZYSN1PER Thumbs down cause you wanted thumbs up.

[kajbocolts999]

[MessiBarcaFan]

@MusicManMike dear faggot...go fuck yourself

[xDnAxTriumPhanT]

hutch likes gay balls

[MuseManMike]

Dear CoD fags, please go away.

[divinoman123]

@MuseManMike hey bitch..... choke on giant black dick

[MrDeamonXbox]

[xHolyHandGrenadex1]

Yo derps, watch the damm video before you come in here and try and act like the worlds biggest fanboy.

[STXUSA]

lol hutch sorry but this sucks GG's penis which is tiny btw

[TheeRealPs3Channel]

@STXUSA do you even know who thom yorke is?

[RetiefGoosen]

Hutch.

[MrBuDDeeGuY]

@tazer95 LOL, Thom Yorke has more talent in one nut hair than any of the pathetic excuses for artists out there today, combined.

[tazer95]

@MrBuDDeeGuY I'll agree with you there, but I still think he's not very good.

[SilentEcho8]

@tazer95 to just say "Thom Yorke sucks." gives off the impression that you have no taste in music.

[tazer95]

@SilentEcho8 You're probably right about that. I can't articulate my criticism for music very well.

[Fobo5s]

@SilentEcho8 not rly, people are not animals, can have different taste-.-

[Miguelohara563]

I loved this song when I was 10. Still do.

[basswatta]

this song isn't "about" david kelly whose body was found after a supposed suicide in harrowdown hill. it is evident that thom believes it was murder. the song uses his murder as an example to show how frustrated thom is with the government doing whatever the fuck they want, stomping on people to further their own needs - "there are so many of us... we just can't do anything about it." If you just dismiss the song as "about" david kelly then you miss the entire point of the song.

[MegaPalletMan]

R.I.P David Kelly.

[crank6666666]

amazing

[Southparker42]

my favorite one

[avzett]

Death to the New World Order.

RIP David Kelly.

[Ulisestkd]

Beautifull O_O

[vialeagosta15]

andate a cagare

[yannrabaud]

line bass from ellen alien

[renzorxx]

The lyrics posted with the video:

"we think the same things at the same town" Uhh.... what?? Same town?

[Kenneyification]

And to say "Who Cares" hahaha that is classic. You're saying there , that i will listen to something that is not coming from a pure honest place and be content with that. Thom pours out his soul so that maybe WE will learn something and stand up (soon hopefully) and say IM A HUMAN BEING AND MY LIFE HAS VALUE! sorry dude im not trying be such a smart ass but c'mon reevaluate the muscic , lyrics , and imagery. BUt hey all art is open to individual interpretation "shrug" Take Care People

[Kenneyification]

Wow that is amazing , You actually think because they use the imagery in their ART that they are in the F***ing Illuminati . WOW.. C'mon man seriuosly... I mean JESUS

they do nothing but speak out against the establishment. Basically you are saying they have no souls and are Tool for the Elite. Give me a break dude.... and start actually listening to these geniuses honestly within yourself. They are humanitarians . Murderers your murderers , WE ARE NOT! THE SAME AS YOU...

WOW. I mean WOW......

[joeisaflyingfish]

Whether or not he did cut his own wrists, or somebody else did, the government still killed him. They crucified him for telling the truth, and as far as I'm concerned, Bush and Blair should both be in front of the Hague right now for crimes against humanity, murder, and, in Bush's case, electoral fraud.

[snakestorm123]

So much win.

[embarazada1]

We can change this world, just wake up and walk out.... do something.

Music is great, yeah, but we can't just hear it and do not act.

In-action is a weapon of mass destruction.

[whateversunsaid]

jonny's name is among the tags..does he play too in "The Eraser"? That would explain the greatness of it..

[Kenneyification]

@whateversunsaid Jonny helped him out a lot in the process of writing this album. And who do think writes most of the music in Radiohead together. They are the win within the music and i think Jonny is the most important of all of them to be honest . MIles Davis , Jonny Greenwood , Roger Waters. My top 3 of all time as far as modern Musicians go...

[whateversunsaid]

@Kenneyification totally agree about Miles Davis and Jonny. i do appreciate thom as musician, but i think the most music of RH has jonny's mark. thom deals more with meanings, messages, feelings and stuff like that which is the first reason why radiohead is my fav band. the second reason is jonny ;)

[speedybill47]

@Kenneyification Its definityl a collaborative work but i do believe johhny is more of the helm of radiohead

[cirkoveguzec]

englishmen SUX

[los2restantes]

the final part of this song is magnific i fall in love when i hear these part!

3:50 to the final!

awesome!

and live is increible! flea is fucking genial.

[biscuitchannel]

fuck sake, just enjoy the song

[usethegrenade]

Such a good tune.

[bluensunshine]

Dr Kelly's death was not suicide. Michael Shrimpton UK national security lawyer revealed that MI5 and MI6 are `furious' that he was murdered. There was prior knowledge of his death in Whitehall. The assassination was most likely carried out by the French external security organisation, DGSE using Iraqis from Saddam's Mukhabarat intelligence organisation, recruited with the help of Syrian intelligence. They were flown to Corsica 7 days prior to the murder. He doubts any of them are still alive.

[chefblanc]

unanswered questions to a £20 billion War we now wage against the masked terror, still our soldiers die and what for; ghosts of Kelly and blair walk the afghan steets together along with the innocent children children. We are no closer to the questions or the answers...

God bless David Kelly.

[PRADA01]

When I listen to this it really feels like Thom is the voice of Dr. David Kelly. Such a creepy feeling to it, this song is amazing

[PennsylvaniaRaven]

this song is about the murder of Dr. David Kelly, a bioweapons expert and UN weapons inspector in Iraq. His body was found on harrowdown hill and his death was dubiously documented as a suicide. Thus, Yorke writes, "Did I fall or was I pushed? And Where's the blood?" and "Don't ask me, ask the ministry [of Defense]"

Only a couple of days before his death, Dr. Kelly wrote to a NY Times journalist about "Many dark players playing games"

Long live free humanity! Death to the New World Order!

[ermalrock]

I searched about what you said and this seems's true ?! I'm sorry about this man and i'm sorry about this world of shit ! I just can't do anything about it ! However Thank you Thom Yorke for being what you are ...

[bigboner87]

@PennsylvaniaRaven Ain't nothing new about the world order you speak of....

[11joshman]

@PennsylvaniaRaven thom and co. (radiohead) are illuminati members themselves look at the kid a blips

masonic imagery

[Phasemix]

@11joshman So why have they created songs like There There, Sit Down Stand Up, 2 + 2 = 5 and Go to Sleep? And all those are from just one album.

[11joshman]

@Phasemix what do you mean by that?

yeah all those songs are from hail to the thief but look at the kid a blips

there's one with flying pyramids and people worshiping eyes

its obvious they are illuminati members but who cares?

they still kick ass and will still be my fav band

[felong1]

@PennsylvaniaRaven

Indicative of the New World Order huh? Total Idiots. Go read up on international politics

[AwesomeCoasters]

@PennsylvaniaRaven

Wow... so, this song is the most subtle and fascinating political message of all musical history, is it?

[BuhAsSkill]

@PennsylvaniaRaven i think he was pushed :)
