This is the best version of Lift imo.

this is the best version because of the familymart jingle in the intro
I don’t think it’s family mart, the jingle sounds like it but I think it’s one of those jingles they play when they hold you on call
@@MixyTape it’s definitely family mart
It really excited me when I first heard it, because it screams "this is a finished Radiohead track"
I hope Johnny made a sampling from familymart when they were on Japan tour lol 😆
Lmao I heard this version two years ago before I moved to Japan, went to FamilyMart for the first time, walked through the door
"OH MY GOD IT'S LIFT" 🤣
Only Radiohead would sleep on recordings like this...just imagine what other gems they've stored away that will likely never be heard.
Billy Corgan wrote literally hundreds of great unreleased songs during the 90s.

Who tf asked about Billy Corgan?
@@alexg3455 the guy who said "only Radiohead"? Lol

Yeah that clearly wasn't an invitation for you to be a smartass. Anymore irrelevant facts you'd like to share with us, smart guy?
I see you in all the comment sections, and I love your animation work, I also watched your video on quantity vs quality, good seeing you!
If there ever was a song that could be Radiohead's "last" song, it is this. Even though it was written ages ago, the lyrics, strings and guitar all make it feel like a culmination of all the bands work into one song.
Idk, I still feel like it would miss some of the Kid A/Amnesiac feel to it
@@justthememelordsnextdoor9120 imo that wouldn't matter, I think this song has easily one of the most inspirational messages Radiohead has put out there, at least joyous ones. It's like saying on an elevator you see many destinations and meet many people along the way of life, but even when your elevator ride is at an end, someone elses is just beginning, a beautiful ending.
Yes! I get that so much
I feel like in a way you can hear that but also not but I see what you mean

They said they didn't release it as a single because it would have been a smash , and they didn't want that...
They were right because this is a fantastic piece of music.
Badass.
i like how all of the older renditions are played at a slightly faster tempo
feels more "urgent"
It's a shame that they didn't put this on OK Computer, I know that they felt threatened by it's commercial value, but the song is so damn good.
What do you mean by "threatened by it's commercial value"?
@@stepans2167 They kept the song off of the record out of fear that it would be used as a single, read the wiki page for the song.
@@shintjee9860 thanks
They also said it didn't fit the album, something i disagree with. It might not fit from a production view, it's way more pop and anthemic than the rest of tracks, but thematically it does. Lift: the fear of being stuck in an elevator. The tourist: the fear of being involved in a car accident. Lucky: the fear of being involved in a plane crash.
Basically the fear of industrialization, something that's present through the whole album.
@@wilberts.cubero3629 I always thought the lift was a metaphor for depression/societal isolation.
I heard Thom wrote these lyrics based on letters between him and a japanese fan at the time. So, if the jingle was a Family Mart one, there’d be no wonder.
Weezer type beat
@@ficklefartrecordsco3451ik I was thinking about across the sea reading this
2:40 heaven... my god....
I’m getting airbag vibes with those drums
Paranoid Android has a similar drum line as well
I'm getting national anthem, especially 0:49 through 1:23
this version gives me mayonnaise vibes
Here i thought I was the only one 😅
A MAYONNAISE ON AN ESCALATOR
Smashing Pumpkins? yeah, immediately thought of them too.
NO THATS SO REAL
colin greenwood's bass in this is wow
THIS IS ACTUALLY GOOD WTF.. i love radiohead as they are but damn..
lol why r you surprised?
Radiohead are true geniuses for being able to make a song like this but also recognize how huge it could've been (would've rivaled Creep as their "signature" song). Judging by how well their career has gone, maybe they made the right choice in withholding this to keep their sanity. If I had to put it on OK Computer, I'd put it inbetween Airbag and Paranoid Android.
It could have been a fantastic follow up to Airbag
i always though it was the perfect closer for the album, like a reassurance its over now
Right before fitter happier :troll:
This feels like a much more energetic and hopeful song than the version that ended up on OKNOTOK. Crazy how even deep cuts like this sound so good
Radiohead were definitely right in their fears of this becoming a massive hit - Coldplay's "Yellow", one of the biggest songs of the 2000's, is a damn-near carbon copy of this song.
god this version is so beautiful.
i thought the original version was good enough until i heard this version. their too talented, this sounds sooo good
This is the best version
Considering how big it is, as of now I'm not very familiar with most of Radiohead's discography. It's crazy to me how they have so many amazing songs that they can record a song like this and go "yeah, let's not release it"
after 2:09 , it was a great journey of enjoying a great background music. that detail of guitar and orchestra, just simply beauty
Literally every instrument
there's an alternate timeline where the okc tracklist went Fitter Happier - Climbing Up The Walls - Lift (this minidisc version) - No Surprises - Lucky - The Tourist.
imo this song couldve went at the end of the album and it would be an 11/10
@@jorrelherrera6695it's a shockingly warm song after all what happened in okc, it would have been nice to be a hidden track imo
@@tristanraine I think that would've added to it, personally - it'd be like a nice, warm hug after all the darkness. A glimmer of hope at the end of the tunnel.
I feel like it belongs more after subterranean homesick alien and before exit music (or at least the oknotok remastered version)
i hope one day they release this version officially
They have lol
amazing and is very different to what they released. i prefer this version because of the enhanced strings
OKNOTOK Verの100倍良いな…ストリングスもギターもボーカルもまるで違う。メンバー間の緊張感がひしひしと伝わる。
これは本当です！！！
They are both good, but I love the guitar in this version more, it has more emotion in my opinion.
I think they should have released it as a single after OK Computer, like late '98 or early '99, to tide people over till the next album. KID A would have been an even bigger mind-blowing album if it followed the Lift single lol. But they had moved on from the sound of grungy guitars and big choruses by then.
The BEST version of this song, Joe edelmann does a great cover of this
both versions slap in their own different ways. one is more heavy and the other is majestic
Lift and airbag had a child in the familymart, wtf its beautiful
This version slaps!
I prefer this version as well. Sometimes, when you touch the original one, it looses something
THANK YOU IVE BEEN LOOKING FOR THIS FOR THE LONGEST
3:01 I love, love, LOVE this part, and Thom's high point when he says "home" :)
To be honest, this copy is the best copy and the one I love the most, as it contains the guitar that is used in the songs of metal, violin and drums and the way that thome york singing,What an amazing version of this song!
Woah this is actually really good
the best version of lift
i wish this was the version on OKNOTOK
beautiful
I can just imagine it being on the first release just because it feels too much like the disc 1 songs, raw. great song.
its a masterpiece. Deserves its place in Radiohead lore alongside the outro to Pearly*. Imagine writing this, listening back and realising you just wrote a smash hit. Then deciding it not to release it for thst reason, because you didnt like th impact the last one had, and generally hold your early writing to be corny and uncomfortable to you.
Beautiful strings 😢
Today is the first day of the rest of my days.
Everyone agrees this is the best version. I really wonder why they didn't use it as the official release.
they don't want another Creep
why does this keep getting taken down? thanks for uploading bro
the song is so good they wanna keep themselves
rh dont want this released
it's classic Radiohead behavior. they just don't feel confident to release it and they wanted it out of the public's mindset
@@PlanetXerox dude, it's not a radiohead thing lol more like a music industry thing. They officially released this on bandcamp years ago, that's why it keeps getting taken down, it's protected by copyright. See the video's description, it was already claimed by xl recordings (their label).
@@wilberts.cubero3629 it was released on Bandcamp due to their asses getting leaked and is simply just a contingency plan. this version of Lift was never meant to be released to the public, but because some hacker decided to put some of the leaked content for ransom, RH beat him on his own game and made it available for a limited time. soon enough, RH wanted these tapes removed again onto the public, that's mostly why you don't see anything from MiniDisc content anywhere on CZcams; RH doesn't want people to come and listen to alternate versions of the material they feel already happy about with OKC.
Lift is a fantastic pop song. I think there could have been another OKC-era EP with all of the songs that aren’t on Meeting People Is Easy… maybe even call it the Lift EP… but I don’t think it fits in the proper OKC tracklisting.
yo no puedo amar tanto una bandaaa
I fkn love this choppy version
Radiohead should’ve done a short EP with this and the other The Bends-like material prior to OK Computer
GEM....
Best song ever
Que hermosota canción
와 짱좋아..
i want this version to be real so bad
It’s real but it was not released.
100% real
I have this on my playlist ,, the re-release of OK Computer 3 years ago
I mean.... you could listen to it anytime lol...
@@pierre.estenaga no what im saying is that they should have released this version
radiohead please come to peru again :(
This sounds like Coldplay heard this and then wrote "Yellow"
Exactly the same key as Lift lmaoo
They absolutely did. The first time Radiohead played this Thom was wearing a yellow raincoat. Undoubtedly Chris Martin was in the crowd.
@@multiversechorusi love this theory
Radiohead Radiohead 🤤🤤🤤🤤🤤
Just fucking incredible.
WHY THIS SONG IS NOT IN OK COMPUTER
oknotok
@@SebastianPerez-vn5gc i mean the main album
@@demir6098 because they didnt wanna get too popular and have this overshadow the other tracks
🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘🤘
They should mix this version without ATRAC minidisc compression so I can enjoy it. Please.
things that will never happen:
things that will never happen:
They should let someone else mix it who's sympathetic to what Radiohead was then - the old man tastes of Radiohead now are what made them give us the rehearsal version instead on OKNOTOK
ESTA CANCION ES LA DECLARACION DE SU SEPARACION DE SU LEGENDARIA BANDA RADIOHEAD-THIS SONG IS THE DECLARATION OF HIS SEPARATION FROM HIS LEGENDARY BAND RADIOHEAD, ITS SO BAD
強く生きないとなぁ
öldüm
これが世に出ちゃったことでOKNOTOKに収録されてるLiftが2017年頃に改 めて録り直された、96年当時の発掘音源使用っていう宣伝文句がウソだって分かっちゃったよね…
ok lah
esta canción es una tarde después de salir de la secundaria
call me crazy but this reminds me of some of morrissey’s solo music
Lo necesito en papel music
lol they were like this is amazing.... Don't release it
im curious as to the date of this considering that the versions they played live sounded much more like the version that released on oknotok than this one, pinkpop being the most similar to this (almost exactly the same!)
Probably going to sound crazy but I prefer the live version they tried in 2002, as good as this one sounds
Imo this song shouldve been in the place of the tourist
i will not stand the for the tourist slander (it’s my favorite radiohead song)
Oh right didnt classic j use to upload this
Tempo 👍
Müge Anlı sürüm 2023🎸
is there any way i can download this
youtube to wav converter
@@kindayoungbutok no youtube is not losless.
@@sudormrf ik but that’s a way to get a version of this lol
yt-dlp my friend
So, its 1997, this version of Lift is on OKC and is the lead single. Album is the same other than that. Does this change anything?
Where’s Lift on the tracklist?
@@skywardstargaze1768 Can't have it too close to let down, how about after subterranean before exit music brings you down again
Radiohead just didn't think it was whiney enough
this one sounds more mean
I get why people like this version more but I just don’t like the guitar on this. Released one aged more gracefully imo
i think the OKNOTOK version fits the lyrics much better than this version
i think the beginning should be in the released version but i definitely prefer the pace in the released version more
Better than the 2017 one, shame they butchered this song
