One of the most beautiful things iv EVER heard. I wish for a proper version of this i continue to wish that we have this verson and the band version as one. As for now This version Rules All. By a LONG shot.
@jibblychupos is probably just trying to piss people off for the hell of it. I know tons of people who do that kind of thing. They say some of the most offensive things possible to fans of a certain thing just to see if they will get a reaction(like comparing muse to radiohead). but idk maybe he is serious as unfortunate as that would be. lol...my advice don't give people like that the attention
@jibblychupos well considering the simple fact that this was in 2005 and Muse's Exogenesis Symphony was in 2009 I'd say Muse copied Radiohead.. so it goes
It's interesting to see how this orchestral piece evolved to Weird Fishes/Arpeggi. The flowing notes from harps and glockenspiels are done by the three guitars and piano, the drumbeat keeps the pace, and Ed's backing vocals replace the violins.
I love how Thom is looking away then when the camera pans off into another direction then pans back to Thom at 1.05 there is thomas dead staring at the camera
arpeggi is the plural form of arpeggio. an arpeggio is when you play the main 3 or 4 notes in a chord, usually in order from bottom to top or top to bottom, like in most of the music in this song.
Kind of late, I know, but arpeggi is plural arpeggio. Arpeggio is a chord that is not played as one chord, but broken into the separate notes of the chord and played in succession, one note after the other in ascending or descending order. Arpeggi are more than one arpeggio. Don't hammer me for telling you something that you probably already know by now.
This version has certain aspects to it that make it better than the guitar-driven one, I think they should have maybe mixed the two versions a little more; should have kept the Orchestra element, this seemed to be a recurring theme on In Rainbows which was beautiful. Very Nice anyway, Thom's certainly enjoying himself :)
When does music cease to be merely music? When one hears - no, experiences - something as amazing as this... feeling emotionally paralyzed by the beauty of it all.
beautiful it is just amazing especially considering it was two years before the release of in rainbows, when this song was still in its developmental stages, well done
Hi all! please please i beg please add me as a friend and then at a later date i'll let u know how to vote for me and my family to get into Lollapalooza free? we'd drive from houston to chicago with 3 wild ass kids in the car (20 hours if we don't stop!!!) but if they give us free passes, our kids get in free. please add me!!! my kids are freaking awesome and this would be an amazing family vacation! thanks in advance
Hi, I was at this performance. Thanks for sharing, it's just brought back memories of an amazing night. Don't think it'd Ed's video, however yes he was definately there. I saw him outside. Trying to stay low key, but a bit difficult!
i want to say that this is ed filming. i say this cuz it looks like thom's lookin around the audience for him (knowing and wanting this footage on tape, maybe?). that or this is filmed by a random person and thoms giving a "I caught you look". i dunno just a thought..or two
I fuckin love the way thom just goes of on one,he doesn`t give a fuck what faces he pulls or what he looks like ,he`s at the top of his game and to be honest the best thing in the music industry!
I love how the camera moves off of thom to jonny. But then when the camera moves back to Thom he's just staring straight into the camera. It's kind of creepy actually were it not for the beautiful music
I wish they hadn't abandoned the oddball elements of this tune (strings, keyboard) for the album version. Some kind of synthesis of this and the "rock" arrangements would have been most preferable to my own personal person.
This vid is just so raw ,straight from thoms heart ,he does not give two fucks what faces he pulls or how involved he gets ..but why should he ,hes in the best band in the world!
i swear im convinced this man is a genius, or some subspecies of one. pfft, i love this man, in a fatherly, manly, totally non gay way. sorry gay people, i am no fanny bandit, thom is just a seemingly exceptional person who loves what he's doing. and is damn good at it.
so what does everyone think, would they rather this version be on the album or the other one? i like the album version better but a studio mix of this would be nice
his movement indicates that he feels the music. it's a multi sensory thing for him. it's a tactile, solid thing as well as something that moves in sound waves.
it makes it much more of a mystical experience to behold. he becomes one with his songs.
just beautifuuuuul
