Crazy looking setup. I love it !

A ten ton head, made of wet sand

Saw Radiohead at Bonnaroo. Prefect concert

It's rare that Thom is ever on stage and someone else is doing more gymnastics. Flea bops around stage so much.

Did you edit that?????

There's something that is being done rhythmically in the bass line that if I'm not mistaken is meant to imitate the passage of time as perceived by consciousness. I'm speaking specifically of the bum-bum-bummmmmm-baba pattern. With the clickety-clack rhythm steadily moving ahead in the background, it feels to me that the initial "bum-bum" portion is the attempt to live at a pace that seems comfortable, and the "bummmmmm" is the slowing down to look around, either to see what's slipping past or just to notice how far you've fallen behind. This leaves the "baba" portion wherein the consciousness makes an attempt to catch up. It's hopelessly doomed, however, because it soon returns to comfort and lags behind again. There's also something being done rhythymically in the way the vocals are delivered that suggest the relationship between time and consciousness. The rhythym is something like "ba-baaaaaa ba-ba-baaaaaa baaaaaaaaaaaa" in the delivery of the verse and in the chorus it's "ba-Ba-BA BaaaaaaaaaaaaaaBaaaaaaaaaaaaBaaaaaaaaaaaa" You can ignore my idiot notation for now, but the the staggering of consonants seem to suggest a winding down of ones own battery. As a counter to the bass, the beginning rapid and staccato, and the drawn out portions are sung with increased vibrato, even as they fade. This, to me, suggests that the attempt to "keep up" is thwarted by the loss of energy as with a battery steadily losing charge. One of the beautiful things about music is the way this is communicated within the music itself. The lyrics point you towards a way of interpreting the music, which bears out explicitly through abstraction in a direct and immediate manner what words can only say "at a distance". Good music and visual art does this kind of thing all of the time, and it saddens me that a lot of folks don't pick up on it, or at least in my case are so devoid of the necessary vocabulary only fumble about for the words. When I was in college, I studied art and philosophy. It bothered me when a painting was critiqued and words were used to describe what the painting was "doing" and some of the snottier students might say something like "Well if that's what's in the painting, why not just say THAT" (referring to the words used). They were ignoring (perhaps intentionally) that the words were emptier, signalling a chain of cognition that while capable of evoking much, were paler reflections of raw emotion (or subtle emotion, for that matter) that the words could never get across as succinctly or powerfully. In addition, a proper painting might set off multiple parallel chains of cognition simultaneously, and these bifurcating paths could be revisited at will acting as a silent backdrop for contemplation of these very paths and the alternates suggested by the various perspectives viewing them. Finally, the enrichment of the engaged minds viewing the works could then extract more from other works presented or even reality itself, as giving multiple species of contour to what was in effect mere assortment of colour and shape might give rise to appreciation of the beauty of what surrounds us along with the potential for extraction of knowledge hidden in plain sight (or sound, as it were). Those that really follow this didn't need to read it. I for one, will save and reread what I wrote, because having an armory of conceptual defense for the pursuit of art and philosophy is becoming increasingly necessary in a world that reacts with hostility to that which doesn't immediately result in a machine with a crank that may be turned to print hollow financial reward. May those thus comported read and understand a work like Ozymandias, and recognizing that even the greatest works resist the passage of time, find the joys and fulfillment possible in partaking of the richness of the now.

i said "who tf are the bassist?" then i see flea. i was like nvm 😂

SHIT HOT musician & from the united Kingdom 🇬🇧

I hope one day we’ll have at least one more atoms for peace album and tour. So annoyed at myself I never went to see them live

Remember when this was released, felt like last week 😮

Fire!

I once drank an entire growler of beer from my work (a brewery) after my shift one day and watched this on repeat. After half the bottle i was crying my fucking eyeballs out. Ahh good times

Nothing else gives me the same feeling this does. Astonishing beauty.

Great! 👍🏼 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

From 4:20 x cues the pun reminds me of a trip I took on Ketamine I was sucked up by the roots of a tree and went up and up everything was so close It was wonderful long live Thom Bjork PJ Harvey and all true Artists

How the hell is this ten years old o.O. I still think of AFP as a 'new' project 😂

I will stop breathing until Thom Yorke puts a comment on this comment

nothing beats a first watch on a leap year day, visually and emotionally powerful music video - before your very eyes...

Thom Yorke vs Spiderman 3 LOL 😂 love afp... 💜

The whole music is a masterpiece but from 4:09 to the end this music is sublime... It goes deep into my very soul and rips it apart

Goosebumps

every 6 or so months, I come back here

One of the most impressive dreams I've ever had

I come here literally every day Thom Yorke is my musician for life

Escuche este tema en la tele cuando tenia 10/11 años, me marco muchisimo, pero nunca la volvi a escuchar desde entonces, un dia se me ocurre volver a buscarla despues de muchos intentos en el pasado, y esta vez la tarareo por google... Diez años que no escucho esta cancion, es un recuerdo muy hermoso...

this goes fucking hard

This is the best music video ever made. Understated. Classic TY. They will look at this in a 100 years and ask who this man was.
