    I love how the kids reactions range from confused to.. mildly amused to.. bored to.. “I like lights!!” I feel like a lot of other bands would only go for this idea if the kids were somehow forced to look enthusiastic about their music.
    But this isn’t just any band.. directed by just any director.

      It works for this song which has such a push/pull between catchy and somewhat deliberately flat and tuneless stretches. It’s the Smile’s way of showing “yeah, we know this section is less immediately fun than that section. So what?”

      Why are rich and famous depressed?
      lets list the reasons;
      they`re trans, faking life 100% daily
      their master is lucifer, the father of lies.
      they have no looks, needs to fake these,
      they have no talent, needs to fake these.
      they are famous only a moment.
      they are rich only for moment.
      To have the moment on stage, wicked and sick ritual must be performed.
      They are masons in masonry.
      Nothing`s real, only illusions.
      They have it harder , to give their soul over to CHRIST and return back HEAVEN (Luke 18:25 KJV and Mark 10:25 KJV)
      true Christians are born again = new creatures in CHRIST, able to no longer sin and able to understand GOD perfectly.
      We are to make a conscious choosing between GOD = CHRIST and mammon = lucifer.
      Deuteronomy 30:19 I call heaven and earth to record this day against you, that I have set before you life and death, blessing and cursing: therefore choose life, that both thou and thy seed may live:
      Joshua 24:15 And if it seem evil unto you to serve the LORD, choose you this day whom ye will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.
      we since birth live in the devils kingdom, this earth here, it shall be created anew, but not yet, still is the church time = still time for souls to get saved and be raptured up. until we come to repentance and born again, we remain living according to the devil.
      devils expectations to us are:
      lie/deceive kill destroy remain wicked sinner who praise death daily.
      because devil is the father of lies:
      John 8:44 Ye are of your father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

      come to repentance
      come out from BABYLON
      born again
      live holy
      do the will of your heavenly father.
      Matthew 9:13 But go ye and learn what that meaneth, I will have mercy, and not sacrifice: for I am not come to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.

This video is a gem btw. And funny! Thom is such a happy camper now. Who would've thought, 25 years ago. Hurray for old age. And psychedelics.

    • @MicahBuzanANIMATION
      @MicahBuzanANIMATION Před 3 měsíci +51

      I agree, but I would be careful about giving psychedelics the credit for a growth a person experiences. Psychedelics can help for sure in the right context, but there's also great risks to any mind altering substances. From what I've read in interviews, Radiohead are on record for saying they don't dabble in drugs (aside from the occasional drink and pot). I would credit mindfulness meditation before psychedelics.
      All that being said, it's very nice to see Thom has found some peace and appears much more at ease and happy these days.

    Lyrics:
    I can go anywhere that I want
    I just got to turn myself inside out and back to front
    With cut-out shapes and worn-out spaces
    Add some sparkles to create the right effect
    And they're all smiling, so I guess I'll stay
    At least 'til the disappointed have eaten themselves away
    Buried from the waist down
    Stop looking over our shoulder
    All the window balconies, they seem so flimsy
    As our friends step out to talk and wave and catch a piece of sun
    I guess I believe in an altered state
    Where they leave their windows and their doors open wide
    Here, the telephone lines are always busy
    Unable to give a reason or a straight answer
    Buried from the waist down
    Stop looking over our shoulder
    We need to get it together
    From our window balconies, we take a tumble
    As our friends step out to talk and wave and catch a piece of sun
    All of that money, where did it go?
    Where did it go?
    In somebody's pocket, a friend of a friend
    All the loose change, loose change
