@@thenightguy3400 On lots of music shows pre-1990s they just had bands mime/pretend to play to their songs. It was easier than having to soundcheck and make sure that every band sounded good. In the 90s Top Of The Pops (UK music show) had live vocals, but the bands still mimed to backing tracks. That's what's going on in this clip, Thom is singing live, but to the backing track of the song. Often bands don't have enough time to souncheck on tv. In the Radiohead Meeting People Is Easy Documentary you can see Thom complaining about their performance of Karma Police on the David Letterman show, "Twenty minutes to spin a wheel and we don't get five minutes to plug a fucking guitar in." Their performance sounded fine, but not as good as the studio version. However, many bands have taken the piss when miming their songs, and there are countless examples of it happening on Top Of The Pops (for instance, Nirvana's performance of Smells Like Teen Spirit).
It's hilarious watching this because they are so bored with the pretense, but it's stuff like this that pushed them to stop this stuff and just be the band they wanted to be. This was formative for them, as all of this nonsense made them break free.
he looks so good here what the fuck
thom looks like a vampire here so majestic
I am obsessed with Thom!
i love thom
i love how phil, ed and colin are playing the song normally while thoms moaning and jonny gives up halfway through ☠️

i cant believe they would get a live band as amazing as radiohead to perform but NOT LET THEM PERFORM AND INSTEAD MIMIC THE SONG WITH A BACKING TRACK
What? Explain what yu mean please you f'ckin intrigued me
