I have wanted to make a video to this fantastic live version of Radiohead's "Like Spinning Plates"

Ever since discovering the lyrics to this song its pretty obvious what Tom is singing about. To be honest this video was slapped together in about 2 hours and i wasnt entirely happy with the outcome. I havent edited something for a long while 8 /

Hopefully the video will make you think thats really the desired process!

BEWARE : There are some Graphic Images towards the end of Dead US soldiers

Lyrics :

While you make pretty speeches
I'm being cut to shreds
You feed me to the lions
A delicate balance

And this just feels like spinning plates
I'm living in cloud cuckoo land
And this just feels like spinning plates
Our bodies floating down the muddy river

  • Nice effort but why such a literal transalation from lyric to image. Somehow loses its power.

  • @Allistermills if I am totally honest I threw this together in under 2 hours.. I usually dig alot deeper for my images/videos. At the time I was using rubbish software and videos I could find on the net. I also agree some of the footage was weak :)

  • not to sound obnoxious, i mean this is great, it's just... why is everything linked to wars? why can't a song be related to something else?

  • Thom himself has actually said this song is about WAR .. he is very potitical.

  • This video is very similar to:

    /watch?v=9vtKak26RkI

    Uploaded one year before... Only that this is too graphic for my taste.

  • its graphic yes i agree.. but its reality my friend ;)

see all

  • Good job.

  • great video mate,big tumbs from me

  • yea i guess putting lions is a little cliche.. however how else would i depict a lion? plus i quickly changed to a young dying boy .. to convey being fed to the lions .. like the romans did .. being thrown away. :)

  • Who are the good guys in the world now?
