    One of my favorite songs from Kid A. I love the lullaby feeling it has and the ambient feeling it has. It’s super ahead of it’s time. The fact that you were even able to sound near identical to the original is insane. Love to see people who love Radiohead as much as me.😮‍💨

For you guys to have knowledge and ear to dissect this song down to it's very pedal effects, EQ settings let alone learning it's crazy off beats and put it back together and perform it like NOTHING AT ALL was done to the song WHATSOEVER!?

    Very impressive, not an easy band to cover and an even harder track!

    I like Radiohead, but hardest song(KID A) I've ever heard. I can't even find a cover in youtube. RESPECT EDELMANN. YOU GOAT. ♥

    Yeah, agreed. I absolutely love this song, but trying to play it on guitar or piano at home…just wouldn’t work. But you have captured it. Loved it!

    Taka is an obvious and grateful Johnny Greenwood fan. Must have seen this video five times today. Thanks for that. Greetings from Argentina!
