Phil Selway rocks so hard he can even play two drums at the same time
I reckon I could and I’m not even a drummer!
@@hanreality.7266I might be wrong (hehe) but I think he means two drum sets, not two drums. You’re kinda required to play two drums if you’re a drummer. I’m pretty sure that TKOL had double drum sets in sessions.

I can’t NOT dance when I listen to Lotus Flower.
Such a beautiful song.
Pure drum and bass plus the light of Ed’s guitar and Thom’s voice.
Beautiful and emotional. One of their best
...have you not seen the instructional video?
how can you dance ???
amen
Unreal how a song can change from a groovy, dark, almost heavy tone in the verses, to the chorus, where I can really only describe the feeling it gives me as floating in space.
I wanna like this but it’s such a perfect number I can’t do it
That's how the song poltergeist makes me feel. Whenever I listen to it I'm reminded of my favorite level, nation spirit
Very well said
Oh, that’s probably why🙎🏼♂️
@@owen1686 you have problems
Is it just me or does anyone else think there should definitely be a radiohead documentary
Look up “Meeting People is Easy”
@@treyebillups8602 lol if only they had a happy one 😂
Get Back envy
@@Swarley2334 Well, Thom was certainly happier when that tour was over lol
@@bernlin2000 yeah that album did a number on them
2:46 the way his voice echoes with the beat change is just perfect.
oh my god it's beautiful
Yeah the sound guy def cranked the Delay and Reverb knob for that part
You can SO tell that Thom loves this song!
why is thom not doing funny burgers floating into my room dance
You’re the reason people hate radiohead fans
@@vincenoir9918 Woah.
@@vincenoir9918 woah chill out haha
@@paranoidcomet he has a point
@@imnotnarcian They're probably just tired of Gen Z's
Me: :(
Thom: *dances or does literaly anything*
Me: :)

Me: 😍😍😍
Colin: got mad
Simp.
1:32 - 1:42 in good headphones, that's magnificent. Love Clive's drum fill that leads into it
Not gonna lie I did not know many of the guitar parts that I love were being played by Ed until I started digging more into their live videos. He really deserves to be talked about as much as Jonny
100%
Totally agree, underrated IMO!
he’s great. but i don’t think he needs to be talked about as much compared to jonny who likely wrote the part he was playing in the first place
Is that cat Jonny really that much of a heavyweight? Im asking genuinely. Im kinda new to Radiohead so I haven't went down the rabbit hole yet. I been digging them for a couple yrs now. I listen to a handful of numbers but those I do love. I actually come from different genres but im very open minded when it comes to music. Gotta be. Anyway.. I know Thom is considered a genius and I've heard alot about Jonny. People always seem to talk about what he brings to the table. His contribution to the band.
the best version of Lotus Flower , for real
Duh.
They play it way too fast now. This one (HERE) has the perfect timing
YES, so much better than studio album. The Portishead's drummer adds at all
agreed
I confirm !! 10000%
Smacks so much harder than the album version...definitive imo 🙂
2:14 That's all you need, Colin's face lol
colin said yeeeeeaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhh
i love the distortion on the synth and bass - so gritty but still subtle somehow
It clearly smacks harder! Much more intense
Epic ❤
2:15 rawrrr! love you Colin
Everyone loves Colin ❤️
He looks like he died two weeks prior to the video
unoriginal joke
chillest guy in the room.
i like his style
Adorable
Lotus flower
I will shake myself into your pocket
Invisible
Do what you want
Do what you want
I will sink and I will disappear
I will slip into the groove
And cut me off
And cut me off
There's an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
So now I set you free
I set you free
There's an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
So now I'll set you free
I'll set you free
Slowly we unfurl
As lotus flowers
'Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick
Just to see what if
Just to see what is
I can't kick the habit
"Just to feel your fast ballooning head"
Listen to your heart
We will shrink and then be quiet as mice
And while the cat is away
Do what we want
Do what we want
There's an empty space inside my heart
Where the weeds take root
So now I set you free
I set you free
'Cause all I want is the moon upon a stick
Just to see what if
Just to see what is
The bird that's flown into my room
Slowly we unfurl
As lotus flowers
'Cause all I want is the earth upon a stick
I dance around the pit, the darkness is beneath
I can't kick your habit
"Just to feed your fast ballooning head"
Listen to your heart
God mode synth sequence on this version. So good.
Очень великолепно
This song makes me feel like a child discovering the world for first time... it's amazing. Thanks Thom, thank you Radiohead.
Same, I love this song
And are you enjoying this discover?
@@ariannalucia598Absolutely!❤
The cinematography of this video is..just freaking impeccable.
One of my twin 17 month old sons just went to the toy box and came back with a rattle. He then started shaking it furiously with a big grin on his face to this song!
Awww 🥰
That's adorable! That's me when I was younger to these type of songs 😂
@ this didn’t happen so much that it undid things that did happen
@@tatertotter808 bro u got me laughing on the floor
I love that Radiohead just keeps exploring and evolving. I’m along for the ride wherever we end up.
Yes yes a moon shaped pool from the basement would be nice but I wouldn’t complain if you guys wanted to release a kid a 20th anniversary either...preferably both
@Joan Lii I prefer Kid A NotAKid

A Moon Shaped Pool From the Basement!
hard to fit an entire orchestra in a basement..
I remember them posting it and it going private. So I think it's recorded already.
@@djackson006 seriously man? holyyyyyy
@@djackson006 stop lying.
TheCheezFace I tried to watch it but it had already gone private. Im high a lot, but I'm sure it happened.
They've been busy with their channel of late, so I've been paying attention.
those drums sound fucking phenomenal
Radiohead getting me through tough times as always
2:45 - The chorus is a pausation of existence. An out of body experience, slow motion noclipping through the multiverse. A multiplanetary communication event. Simply divine.
it’s amazing how it changes from this very groovy baseline oriented song to a peaceful moment of contemplation, like a whole new world is unfolding in front of your eyes while your soul wanders through the void.
Yes! Love you pointed it out! Theres so much to take in
Nice!!
Colin and his facial expresions... From doubting it to enjoying it... Priceless.
When the camera shot at Jonny's hand,
I felt that.
You could be the highest of highs; the lowest of lows; or somewhere in between and this will still make you forget about everything. It reaches deep but it's fun at the same time.
Seeing people do art it's one of the most sublime experiences we can witness. They made art, and I am very thankful for seeing it.
Perfect way to put it my friend ✌🏻
It really is. ⚡⚡
They made art ❤
No, it's just music
@@ThingsWeLoveYo?
This song should be in every set list they do. Absolutely phenomenal!!!
Да
thom going ham on the maracas is the best thing ive ever witnessed
I had forgotten how much i love this song
This freaking band- I swear! Geniuses of music. I don't understand how they can bring your to such a euphoric state with the way they layer and build their songs.
This was debuted by Thom Yorke at a warm-up show with his group Atoms For Peace in 2009. Radiohead first played the song during a benefit concert in 2010. Once recorded, “Lotus Flower” (2011) was chosen by the English alternative rock band as the first single from their studio album “The King of Limbs” (2011).
The lotus flower, a.k.a. sacred lotus, an aquatic perennial, is the national flower of India and Vietnam. From ancient times it has been a divine symbol in Asian traditions, representing the virtue of sexual purity. In Asian classical literature, the lotus was often used in verse as an allegory for ideal feminine attributes.
The LP’s title refers to an oak tree in Wiltshire’s Savernaks Forest, which is believed to be 1,000 years old❗️
Yorke’s singular moves in the music video inspired a series of dance dub clips having him grooving to popular tunes : Beyoncé’s “Single Ladies” (2008), Lady Gaga’s “Bad Romance” (2009), and Guns N’ Roses’ “Welcome to the Jungle” (1987).
ONE DISTINCTIVE ODE TO WOMEN❕ 💜🪷💜
Radiohead made music in quarantine in the basement before it was the cool thing to do.
OmG is true haha
actually im not into TKOL before, but after i force myself to listen the basement version-- man i'm bloom like a lotus flower now
Same. this basement version is way better than the album version
slowly you unfurl as lotus flower?
slowly you unfurl as lotus flower?
TKOL is actually my favorite album by them.. the basement sessions completely changed my mind. very much so worth a listen
I’m listening it little by little
I needed a good live version of this song, and now I'm finding this out, I feel just happines
Я скачал даже. Эта версия лучшая
Drum fill at 1:32 is just gorgeous. Wow!
God I can’t say enough how I love these guys. Best musicians EVER
Yeah... definitivly the best live performence of this one. A big moment of music
You should see them in live, they are way better in live
I love this way better than the album version
Pink Floyd and radiohead ...they are genius ...out of the box
You forgot to mention Coldplay
@@ThingsWeLoveYohow in the FUCK are coldplay geniuses? I'm very much a fan of most of their work, but I gotta admit at least half of their work (especially recent stuff) is just pop-ish cashgrabs. Of course, a lot of great, catchy songs in the mix, but not a lot of thought seeps through it like you'd see in Radiohead and Pink Floyd.
@@x9mc nerd
@@ThingsWeLoveYo bruh 😭😭😭😔😔😔
I really wish that they'll do AMSP anytime soon.
That would be relevent in 2016 or 2017.
Now we have to wait a new album.
nigel godrich's 'from the basement' series is no longer a thing, so i doubt there will be unless its home made
Yes yes yes!
Me too but my heart tells me we’re just dreaming
@@pkelly206 It is no longer a thing since 2009 and this is from 2011
Their performances are precise and complex like a science project
2:14 when you’re at a sleepover and mom brings out pizza rolls
This music is where the drums and the bass shines
Lotus Flower music video...take...2
From The Basement coaxed so many amazing performances and this is one of it's more spectacular offspring as this represents the finest performance of Lotus Flower, bar none! Bravo!
Radiohead makes music that I think nobody else can
One of the greatest bands of all time
Qué afortunados somos. De haber nacido en esta época, para conocer la grandiosidad del espíritu humano representado por estos tipos...y de haberlos visto y escuchado en vivo.
Здравствуйте. Подскажите пожалуйста что Том курит.? На сухую такое не придумаешь. Просто мозг рвёт. Супер.
One of the few Bands that produce truly quality Music.
what other bands do you think do the job too?
@@deloreanboy Here are a few more : The Police, Led Zeppelin. Sound Garden , Alice in Chains U2 .and Fleetwood Mac .
@@dwaynearthur1476 U2 is gay AF. Was my fav band in HS. Can't do it. Nirvana rocks. Moderat, Modeselektor, Apparat, Trentemoller, Robert Plant (NOT led Zeppelin). Fleetwood Mac- yeah, they're good. Peter Gabriel!! Still, nobody compares to Radiohead.
Portishead, Tool, Queens of The Stone age @@dwaynearthur1476
Guitar work is so so amazing. Great Job Ed
You set me free , you set me freeeee. Everytime I hear this song I get goosebumps from my head to my toes.
Simply beautiful! Я сидел теплыми тайскими ночами в феврале 2012 в одиночестве,слушал , попивая пивко , и погружался в свою меланхолию с кайфом....
There's an empty space inside my heart where weeds take root.. that phrase will not leave my head no matter what.
I can’t kick your habit
Your fast-balloning head?
How come nobody has put up “10 hours of just this one here” on YT yet?
omg this is the first time i listen to this song
Helps me concentrate
Every live version I've ever heard of lotus flower is different yet equally as amazing, like I'm hearing it for the first time ❤
The King of Limbs didn't really grab me at first, but in a live setting (and with time) it has really grown.
Absolute banger. I dance like a madman everytime
As emoções que o Thom coloca nas músicas é de outro mundo!! ❤️
4:12 my favourite moment … vocal + drum
One of my favourite songs ngl
I really like it when an entire Band records in the same room, they usually "Play" off one another...this is a fantastic example of this.
JUST THIS ONE HERE
This song has been my jam for the past 2 days now. Love it!
Just this one here
Thank you!! I was missing this song and still on the loop at the same time
I love Radiohead ❤
The best song ever !!!!!!!
my most fav song
it's also my favorite song
Beautiful songgg❤
first time watching them live. Gotta say one of the best performances ive ever seen
Radiohead: "We're definitely NOT a Prog band."
Also Radiohead: "You like our TWO bald drummers?"
😂😂😂😂
Don’t think I’ve ever seen a live version of anything as good as this.
Every time I listen to that song I keep thinking how much I like it until I see Thom Yorke feeling it,then I am getting addicted to it...Masterpiece
I want a 10 hours version of "Just this one hea"
:v
here
Gracias por subir esto ♥️♥️
This is perhaps the most beautiful and emotive song ever written......
Who else likes this version way more than the one on the record?
Overall Basement TKOL is far superior than the the record imo
This song is my everything
*Just this one here*
…this one here
This one here!

This is my favorite radiohead songs by far
I been looking for video for a couple of weeks now . Thank god I finally found it .
The editing is superb

Kills me every single time 😂
I just pee’d a little! Colin phone home!

This...is the performance that makes the little hairs stand up...its sublime...
This version is so perfect!!!
Very nicely sounding drums...!!!

Song that makes me get dance automatically

Perfect audio. Thanks Radiohead! 👍
My favourite version of Lotus Flower
