This song is a reflection on how fake and plastic society can be. My favorite line; " He used to do surgery, for girls in the 80s, but gravity always wins"
Well, listen to all the lyrics on Cure's Wish.."We Used to be so close together, how did we get so far apart?".. song "Apart".. "I thought this love would last forever.." Still love this song as well, and the mentioned lyric is gold.
Best song ever!!!! Radiohead fan here since the 90's. I use to listen to this song every morning before school. 🎶 And if i could be, who you wanted, if I could be who you wanted.. all the time, all the time..🎶🎶
I play this song on my guitar at home often. And when I sing those lines I always feel like I am singing those to my wife. I mean she loves me but...you know...time changes things. I don't know why i shared that.
Radiohead is a great Rabbithole to get lost in... especially6 if you listen to their earlier stuff and than the later stuff... Both amazing stuff but so very different
Fun Fact: at 4:28 of THIS video you can briefly see a young Norman Reedus (yes THAT Norman Reedus) pushing and playing with a shopping cart. He was a model at the time and this is obviously well before he became famous.
This was from 1995, and was their last melody-driven album. Their next album, "OK Computer" in 1997 was more experimental rhythms and is considered to have killed off the musical trend known as "Britpop" overnight, and permanently changed the direction of rock. It's fair to say that bands like Muse and Coldplay have borrowed heavily from their sound.
Radio Head songs have such a deeper undertone to them, close ur eyes, picture the lyrics, play his story in ur mind... Try Nirvana unplugged in New York
Beautiful song! Always loved this piece. Should try out Street Spirit (Fade Out) - last song from the same album as this. The video is superb. Bit more of a build-up than this song. Other notable songs to check out from Radiohead: Karma Police, Paranoid Android, Lucky, Idioteque, Everything In It's Right Place, Reckoner. That will get you started...
#ScribeCash you should check out "Paranoid Android", "Exit Music For A Film", "Videotape", and I'd highly recommend "Street Spirit (fade out)", I think you would really dig that one musically, vocally, lyrically, and visually.
Great song. First song that ever turned my head to Radiohead. But it's still shallow. Check out 'Pyramid Song' and see if you can follow the time signature.
Honest question/answer? How many hours do you put into making your hair look like you don't care how your hair looks? Pretty sure this song is about YOU.
The song Creep is what they're most famous for, which has been covered by a ton of other bands. For something that rocks a little more, check out Paranoid Android, There There, Karma Police, Weird Fishes/Arpeggi.
"Do y'all still own a radio?" and she said " if you do I oughta knock you in the head." Lmao 😂 I'm giving a thumbs up just for that comment alone. She's not wrong tho. 😂😂😂
can you pleaseeee react to dude name Mike Stud. But don’t judge from his name he‘s 🔥 “brightside” “win” “don’t jump” “these days” anything from him is fye with a different vibe. He gotta drake feel fr check him out!!
@@olympian3 you are talking about one of the greatest bands ever, compared to a bunch of orange tinted sunglasses wearing assholes. Comparing Radiohead to u2 is like comparing Jimi Hendrix to anybody who is worse than jimi Hendrix. U2 is the fucking worst. Especially when they forced that album onto my iTunes account. But they already sucked decades before that. Nobody in their right mind likes u2, as they should not. . . Cuz u2 is terrible. Meanwhile Radiohead actually is amazing and not pretentious and just speaks for itself without wearing cool glasses or pretending to care about the world. They just make good music. U2 makes shit. They always have made shit. That’s all they can make. I’ve lived my whole life plagued by stupid u2 shit and Radiohead was my only savior. And jimi.
I got the sense that its a boy singing about his parents who dont really love each other but are putting a front on which wears them out. As such the boy wishes he could be who they wanted all the time as he feels he is too putting up a front which wears him out. Hence the child symbolism in the video of being pushed in a shopping cart and that shot at the end.
@Nishta Anand It's strange that both this song, and Pulp's "Common People" video came out in the same month, and both featured being pushed inside a shopping cart. I think this song is simply about consumerism. Radiohead have espoused anti-capitalist politics.
