Its weird how with Radiohead you start off with your favorite songs and songs you don't really like. Then you start liking the songs you didn't like. Eventually you just like every song on the album.
Exactly. Jazz is like that too for me
Well said!
Tom Waits does it to me
Exactly.
I agree. Some of their songs are so strange and first and the tempo changes they use to jarring effects can be something that takes a few listens and time to appreciate. When you do, or for me it is when I have finally "hear" how frigging perfect the song is composed and what I thought didn't work does. Daydreaming was the latest example of this. Didn't like it all that much to start but now just get swept up into it when I hear it.
We demand a Pool Shaped Basement from the Moon
UP THIS COMMENT PEOPLE SO RADIOHEAD CAN SEE HOW MUCH WE NEED THIS AND WANT TO SLEEP WITH THEM IN THE SWEET MOONLIGHT DERP
The show got cancelled, but with enough attention maybe they'd do a virtual concert
YES PLEASE
From the Moon 🌝 That would be some concert !🤩❤🐱🌌🏴
Danjoker 😂😂😂
Ed O’Brien’s backup vocals on Weird Fishes are unbelievable
Not to mention the sheer amount of sounds he's getting out of his guitar on tracks like "Nude."
to do that live, that sort of distant vocal but sounds just like the record, amazing, great voice
That track is my mental heaven.
GOD man. yep. first thought every time i hear it.
Just me revisiting the comments. As in love as I am with the rest of the song, I get so much more giddy for those backup vocals.
whos here in 2024 still enjoying this master piece
I’m back. Again.
Best band of all time@@granpasimpson
Me
Yes
On my new Bowers & Wilkins px-7's
How many people think In Rainbows is the best Radiohead album?
Yes.
Me, In Rainbows and OK Computer :)))
It really is. OK Computer is unquestionably a work of art, but I think In Rainbows is too, and is more timeless.
yep, it’s either in rainbows or kid A for me, depending on my mood
Ok computer, the bends, in rainbows...
Voice perfect Guitar perfect Bass perfect Drum perfect Sound perfect Perfect live
Perfect

Whatever else may be wrong in life, we still have Radiohead In Rainbows Live From the Basement.
❤
Might be one of the best comments of our times
REAL
This performance give anyone else a natural high? I've been coming back to it again and again for over a decade, and it still transcendes.
high like I am right now, I can only say this works like a boost to the effect.
Its very encapsulating for sure. I think its got its time and place to flourish. I sound like a hippie...
Which is the highlight for you? Weird fishes transports me
New Year's 2024 and I'm back
In rainbows is the perfect blend of that edge the band has and beauty
Phil is a great drummer and I barely see people pointing that out. The man is a living metronome! I appreciate his solo work too.
He has really grown since their start.
He is a beast. One of the best drummers to have ever laid foot on this planet.
Sometimes, a drummer is so good he could almost go unnoticed in the subtlety, in his precision. There's no such thing as a great band, with an average drummer. The drummer has to be great in his/her own way. Phil is great- a big part of the aura of the music....driving it along.
many people don't notice the world class rythm section of Radiohead, with the drummer being probably top5 all time in my book. Not to mention the rythm section of Radiohead is fucking complicated, which is why they needed 2 drummers live
Being on beat is not really the most important thing 4 me because a beatbox can do that. Myself I prefer crazier stuff like Keith Moon or jazzier beats like Jimmy Chamberlain's. Although "optimistic" here is proof that Phil can be both versatile and creative as well
weird fishes has to be one of their best songs of all time who agrees
Absolutely
agreed
I agree
Amen
Masterpiece

no faust arb😞
the fact that jigsaw falling into place isnt here is crazy
i crawled through the comment section to find this just to notice that it’s in the description anyway
Radiohead literally transcends their own music; it’s almost spiritual.
It is.
It is spiritual. Any form of art that moves your spirit and pieces your soul is certainly spiritual
Almost?
Im a bassist, and a massive fan of radiohead, scrolling through the comments for about 10 minutes now and im quite upset, quite upset at the fact my main man colin isnt getting any love, guys a god behind that bass.
teambass
Agreed, Colin and Phil really shine in this.
YOUR EXACTLY RIGHT SIR H D ..‼️ 🎸 To You that's Base to you😁 COLIN we pay Hamage To You KING 🤴 OF THE BASE 🎸🎶😎🎶 I SEND YOU THE LOVE❤ & RESPECT SIR COLIN‼️👍✌👆🏽🤟🖖🤙👋🤜🤛

My best student 🌻❤️
The biggest sin about this live performance is that they didn't get to play jigsaw falling into place. Other than that, this will definitely go as one of their best performances ever. The instrumentation alone is fucking insane.
TKOL from the basement is pretty fuckin' good. Don't get me wrong ...Rainbows is stellar. I can't choose tbh...
@@ronlennon.amorocity TKOL from the basement is so good it outshines the studio album. I personally prefer In Rainbows, but TKOL is definitely underrated.
its all from 'in rainbows'.
@@durtyragoux did you have a point?
@@daddykarlmarx6183 oops, I was thinking about 'everything in its right place.
Embarrassing to admit I have only recently discovered this group, and now I'm obsessed.
if u haven’t already, check out the king of limbs basement performance! equally as incredible
@@eternal_icicle Yes, it is also amazing! The more I listen the more I see how unique and gifted they all are!
Relax and enjoy :)😌
KID A & B Sides, give these albums an honest chance if your are just discovering this
Welcome. Beautiful discoveries await.
Phil and Colin are so so so under rated. Look at 'em go keepin the rhythm. Every member is essential to this group. Cant imagine radiohead without either 1 of them. Best modern band on the planet.
💜 100%, each part in crucial
What makes you think they're underrated? they are very much appreciated and correctly 'rated'
@@Midz439 they’re not really underrated but they’re definitely in the shadow of thom and jonny
i too enjoy the compositions of phil collins
@@caralho5237me too
These dudes went to high school together. That’s insane. Whatever interpersonal struggles must’ve occurred, they’ve never been petty publicly with each other, and have always been able to come together and create exciting music. A true music family. Long may they live.
Yeah, it's so good they did, but also so special and unusual. Maybe Thom had some magic that pulled them all towards being perfect with their music? Their same place/same time is one of our era's miracles.
i wish i could have met bandmates like that in highschool haha
To have so many skilled musicians come together from one school, it almost beggars belief!
Thom and Jonny are just an amazing duo. Not to take away from the rest of them. Nigel also adds something special.
@@klaaswijnsma122 maybe it’s his band and he’s just trying to get his name out there?
Thom really woke up that day and said "yea I feel pitch perfect today"😭
Bro ikr 😭
he does every day §-§
whats the context behind this
never mind i thought you said perfect pitch. i was so confused
Every day ? Eh - 🤍
Aren’t we blessed to exist at the same time as Radiohead
Very!
Yes. Yes, it's a wonderful time to be alive. Needing music like this to keep you sane. I like the post-9/11 legislation, mass immigration and approaching world war the best.
Absolutely
we are indeed
People who can't stand Radiohead, or simply "Don't Get It", really should listen to this entire set with an open mind. Just about every human emotion... They're all here, in this set. This is what music is meant for. This is why music is magic, sorcery... It can do what nothing else can. I think this is Radiohead's most incredible piece of work. It's so cohesive. Thanks boys. Please never stop creating.
Preach, brother! It’s audible alchemy.
Couldn't have said it better, Thank you!
I genuinly struggle to understand how everyone doesn't get blown away by this.
@@stuartblair1929 1 day later! You are right. This is an awesome musical creation!
I'm a floors guy and a Radiohead fan, and I don't see enough people giving my guy, Vinny Voom Botts, from Bott's carpet and foors, enough credit for the absolute carpet job in that room.
lmao
XD
Underrated comment lol
Haha, nice.
Nice plug well done great looking carpet I dive a lot of carpets so yea awesome !!
Thom Yorke, man. Sings while playing ALL the instruments, flailing about like a Polynesian fire dancer on mushrooms... and still sounds like an impeccable, layered studio recording.
I feel like all of that flailing has to be part of it... The way he moves around the microphone effects the sound that gets picked up. He's adding affect.
HAHA It is rather amazing! Moves around like a lunatic but somehow always nails every performance!
John I have seen them live many times and the flailing, yep it's there and the multi instrumentalism, and perfection live as far as sound, Yep it's there, every time, a well oiled machine juggernauting its way across the music multiverse. These guys are masters at their craft.
@@keravesque nah he just groovin
@@keravesque He just loves dancing! At earlier shows it only popped up rarely. As his confidence and just love of the music (esp singing comfortably at a high range. Remember Pablo Honey?) he just enjoys the shows and dances and it’s amazing! This sounds exactly the same on record or live, and no dancing.
Amazing feat in timing. How they're able to duplicate all their complicated beats (and off beats) and stay in sync without a glitch through all their live shows is remarkable. They really have their shit together musically.
no better example - Glastonbury 1997 - rain blew their monitors, Thom very nearly walked off stage but didn't, what happened next is probably The Best Performance from any band on that stage. Even Michael Eavis said it.
how does this man sing so well
It's absolutely insane how they sound this good live.
concordo
It's a much more controlled environment here than a typical live show. They are able to focus their energy into accuracy and did multiple takes of each song to get it right. That's part of what makes this band great; their meticulous attention to detail.
@@genequist3859 Still live. Most cannot do this
IKR
Not live
OK Computer is realising how soulless and empty the world can be. In Rainbows is finding your place and light in that darkness and all the beauty that comes with it.
God this comment hit hard. I used to identify with the alienation on OK computer a bit too much. Now I’ve found a lot more good than bad in humanity and I agree In Rainbows is an embodiment of that.
True. They were freer than ever at that time, after finishing their deal with Hail to the Thief.
Kid A is the world destroyed by the corruption and bloodthirsty people ?
@@digitalghost41023 Kid A to me is like the robotic acceptance of a cold reality. In Rainbows has that same acceptance but much more human, real and raw emotion.
@@Jackson-pn4pn I feel the same way man.
This is an example of a perfect band. 5 incredibly talented musicians preforming fantastic music.
I saw Johnny at the National Gallery in London (while on vacation, live in USA) two weeks ago with his wife and son. Just went up and asked him if he was Johnny, he said yes, I shook his hand and left him alone. Although I am 56 years old, it was a thrill to meet someone of his genius.
Weird fishes is almost the perfect song. Incredibly orchestrated and complex yet so chilled out. The way it pulls you up and down is quite extraordinary.
one of the best songs ever
Why almost?
A masterpiece!
it is a perfect song
I love that song its at the end of a movie I think
This is one of best live performances of an album ever.
Fact. It's so incredible
Have you heard the FLAC soundboard version of Bonnaroo? its my fav proper live performance ever.
Definitely… slane castle rhcp goes up there too
This is actually more than just a live performance of an album-there are songs from multiple albums included here. Though I agree with the main point that this is one of greatest live recordings ever.
This isn't actually Radiohead.
I've been coming back to this for over ten years now and it never gets less amazing
i've been watching this almost every day now for the past month or so while studying
Jonny Greenwood is such a genius in creating soundstages. OMG I'm speechless.
still upset that Jigsaw Falling into Place was not on the track list
Wait, what?! Thought this was the whole In Rainbows album?! Though I see Optimistic is being played though so I guess that somewhat makes up for it!!
might be my favorite track on the album. hard to pick, HOC, 15step, bodysnatchas all are sooo good. imo videotape is overrated, should have done jigsaw instead.
Nik Petrovic same! extremely hard for me to choose a favourite but It’s a tie between Weird Fishes, Reckoner & Jigsaw for me
Graham Irwin I know..was pretty disappointed probably my favourite track on the album along with Weird Fishes. Oh yeah Optimistic is glorious..the climax is pure ear candy
there's a Scotch Mist's version of Jigsaw though, which is great
This is Radiohead at the height of their creative genius
Lying
Definitely one of their best era's, and best albums
Nope, not reached it
fax
Definitely not
Watching this on my come down of a very emotional trip and this brought me to tears. No matter what we go through, I think it’s important to understand you always have yourself and that’s what Radiohead signifies to me through their music. Thank you (probably didn’t make any sense lol)
I hear you buddy
Sounds like you have a good head on your shoulders. Keep it up, friend.
Tears are the antidote to hate. Love to you, stranger.
shut your eyes and it feels like you're listening to the recording, stunning. what a band.
Salut, j'ai écouté son CD sur Une pirogue au nord Laos,quel trip ,,les yeux ouverts !
Let's hear it for Colin Greenwood's beautiful, eye-of-the-hurricane, unobtrusive, spinal bass-playing. I love each member's consideration for the others. No-one gets in the way, each sticks to the arrangement, no-one has a swaggery, silly rock star ego. If only for this reason, Radiohead deserves its place as the best band on the planet.
He had to shake it out at 43:15. Yep, awesome!
One of my top 5 favorite bands and albums. I still can't believe I haven't seen them live in over 25 years of being a fan.
I tried to like this comment then I realized I already liked it a couple of months ago.
@@jdunnatl i went to two concert band in my entire life, first was Radiohead and the second again 😅🤟🏽
@@mbmpablo3631 Man, I'm jealous!
I just need to make sure Ed O'Brien gets credit for his perfectly executed harmonies and backing vocals. An underrated aspect of the balanced sound this band achieves time and time again.
Not only that but he is a really good backup singer
Radiohead would have been a great band if it was just Thom Jonny and a couple stiffs, but you don't get *this* without all 5 of them, and most especially Ed - his underrated versatility gives Jonny the freedom to play a fucking transistor radio on songs when he feels like it
全く同じことを考えてる人がいた。
❤❤❤❤
40:45 when he gives a Colin a "oh, hey buddy" look.
Weird fishes is perfect, perfect, perfect so beautiful
In Rainbows is like listening to what life sounds like from birth to death. It’s chilling in the most precious ways.
If you want another album that sounds like life, listen to Lift Your Skinny Fists Like Antennas to Heaven by Godspeed You! Black Emperor
Born in 65, grew up in the 70’s. Partied HARD in the 80’s. Matured in the 90’s. Learned a trade and now an aerospace engineer for 28 years. I’ve seen every band from Abba to ZZ Top. If I had to, I can go the rest of my life with Radiohead being the only band I can listen to and would have zero complaints. They are the best of the best and imo the greatest band in the history of the planet. Wish we could go back to 1994 and do it all over again.
Rock on!!
Twas a junior in high school in 94...Radiohead was my soundtrack in college...Kid A on repeat for hours while I worked on graphic design projects. Then when they dropped In Rainbows as a PayWhatYouWant! Amazing! I'd definitely do it all again for sure!
The greatest are the Beatles. But, yes, Radiohead can easily be the second best. Absolutely.
@@francoalvear2010 bruh beatles is overrated. they are great, they are iconic, paul mccartney is one of the best songwriters of all time but the beatles is not the best
An outstanding summary! I feel the same. I KNOW music. Radiohead are simply magnificent, in music. Not, compared to such-and-such…just so good, they almost stand alone! A Zeppelin…A Queen…A Zappa….a Rush… a whoever…. When you know, you know…
Thom Yorke dances like he is hearing every note of every instrument and dancing accordingly.
So true
Thom is radioheads #1 fan.
channeling Ian Curtis
That's what happens when you open your hearing to it all. Every body part gets assigned a layer to dance to.
He tastes the notes to..
A pity that you can only 'like' something once. Love this once more every time I come back to it.
Radiohead has to be a top ten all-time band...no matter your taste you can't help but feel their genius. This version of In Rainbows is nothing short of a masterpiece.
That red carpeting just really ties the whole album experience together man
Dude.
Forget it Donny, you're out of your element.
This is what happens when you put Radiohead in the basement . (Just when I thought Radiohead couldn't be better, the Big Lebowski references arrived
All colours in the basement are in the right place. Just look Jonny's T-shirt!
All the Dude ever wanted was his rug back, man. It really tied the room together.
I think Thom singing Nude is the most beautiful thing I've ever heard
I have to agree, brings tears to my eyes, beautiful x
That song is subtle perfection. Although I do love the old heavier version as well.
No one else gonna point out the innuendo?
Agreed
regarding beautiful, your pic kind of compete...yeap indeed nude is an incredible song
Best part amongst only great parts: Colin's return at 43:17 in Reckoner after having shaken his hands. This warm and purposeful bass line. Wow! 🤩
this isn’t my favorite radiohead album but it hits different literally my top 5: 1. Jigsaw Falling Into Place 2. Weird Fishes / Arpeggi 3. Reckoner 4. Bodysnatchers 5. 15 Step
Dude? Nude?
6th favorite from the album. overrated but still an incredible song. also id prob say this is my fav radiohead album now, it swaps between this and OKC@@usinakenes
Weird fishes is not their most famous song but it is my favorite. It has helped me out of so many hard times. I cant even explain why.
weird fishes is the quintessential song of radiohead. there’s no doubt. for me it’s a one way travel to heaven every time I listen to it
its one of the most beautiful songs ive ever heard, definitely one of my favourites from them
Well the song itself is about being putt in a very bad place, but still being able to free yourself from that position. "Yeah, everybody leaves, If they get the chance, And this Is my chance", "Yeah, I hit the bottom, and escape, escape". Its a very motivational song when you think about it.
@@selfperformedsparagmos Interesting interpretation! I see interpret is as being unable to escape your situation (but still trying to). The song starts at its lowest, 'At the bottom of the Ocean'. During the first half, the song rises and rises as the narrator gets more and more hope that they might escape, until the climax ("I get eaten by the worms"), when the arpeggio's stop and they plummet back towards the bottom. The ending is determination, but perhaps also false confidence. The narrator is back at the bottom, but still wants to leave. To me, it's a song about loneliness and abandonment. Trying to escape a downward spiral, failing and trying again, however futile/foolish it might be.
that’s the amazing thing about Radiohead: you could name 50 songs that qualify as their best ever
00:20 - Weird fishes / arpeggi 05:40 - 15 - step 09:36 - Bodysnatchers 14:01 - Nude 18:48 - The Gloaming 21:45 - Myxomatosis 25:42 - House of Cards 31:20 - Bangers + Mash 34:53 - Optimistic 39:50 - Reckoner 44:49 - Videotape 49:32 - Where I End And You Begin 54:58 - All I Need 59:16 - Go Slowly
J.O and Radiohead fan? Comrade 🧐🤝🧐
Thanks
Wait, wheres jigsaw fall into places
I just discovered Radiohead in the last couple of years lucky me everything they've done is fresh and new for me.
Those are most of my favorites.
I slept on this record for so long, but ever since I first heard it a few months ago I’ve been obsessed with it; that riff on Bodysnatchers just pulls you in from the start
It’s my favorite, when I was in high school I couldn’t believe they released it for free. It helped me thru hard times
At every moment, you know who is playing what. Every tiny vibration, every subtle noise or distant echo. You are transported into their midst and see perfectly that they are playing and creating together. You see the genius and the craft. This session is simply out of this world.

This performance of Go Slowly is sublime
Thanks
It's in the video description
Jigsaw?
Jonny's move at 4:00 is so underappreciated. He goes from playing rhodes one second to standing by where he was before, recording those super high guitar notes to be looped back later, but without being able to hear himself, then he starts playing normally and starts the loop at the same time, all in 23 seconds.
Thom and Jonny are totally sync'd
Something about Jonny's key playing right before 4:00 really gets to me, he looks so locked in with the music, almost like a child
im sure hes got monitors in
@@williamkenny6383 that's a good point regarding his immersion and their synchronization
Wow, I'm really glad you pointed this out. That's incredible watching it back
one of the greatest performances in music history...
Why do I keep coming back here?! Because it's a masterpiece
1. Covid lockdown extended 2. Goes to KZhead 3. Sees two and a half hour Radiohead live set 4. "I'll watch the first couple of songs" 5. Two and a half hours pass 6. "Well I better get back to work" 7. Clicks repeat 2021 in a nutshell
If you watch it on normal speed its only an hour and 3 minutes...
2021 can't be in a nutshell only two months in, but it's nice to hear your year has started off famously!
could you direct me to the two and a half hour set please lol
Same :-)
Fuck, I relate to that
Reckoner is one of the most beautiful songs I've ever heard
My favorite Radiohead song -- and any fan of theirs knows there are a *lot* to choose from.
To me, Reckoner is the song that best exemplifies music as an art form. More than any other song, it IS art
True story. Purely amazing
Only song I could listen to for every second of my life and still love it like the first time I heard it
yeah its somthing really special.....
This just saved my fucking life
one of the best performances of all time. insane
i love thom's dancing because he doesn't even give a crap about what he looks like doing it, he just loves dancing.
he kinda gives me ian curtis vibes ngl
He looks like he just woke up from a hangover and singing his ass off
Dunno man, I kinda imitate him whenever those songs comes in my mouth
I love watching him and Bjork and Eryka Badu perform- the “ Flow State” personified
@Inma González Castelló great comment.
In my radiobed listening to radiohead

get caught by the radiofeds for pirating, so I get out my gun and fill them with radiolead and have a drink from my radiokeg. Afterwards, break my radioleg and go to the radioEED.

This performance of Weird Fishes is better than the album version. It's. Perfect.

Ever
Thom singing Nude is still one of the most impressive vocal performances that i've ever had the pleasure of heaing in my entire life
I agree totally
Same 🥺
It’s stunning
Omg...yes indeed!! 💕
Absolutely.
this performance of videotape is unreal
My brain has decided to leave my head, bloody love this!
Whoever engineered and mixed this incredible performance deserves as much credit as the band, This performance is completely off the charts good. It is something special for sure and it just feels like you are there in the room with them. The camera cuts become so natural that you forget about them. This is absolutely the highest bar. So so gooood!!!
Bands could do pay-per-views like this and prob make a boatload of money without leaving their city. I'd pay for these more than I go to live shows.
Same with whoever does the sound and mixing for KEXp. The two gold standards.
Nigel Godrich. Yes, it is listed, but they only work with him anyway. Edit: Also, from engineering as part of The Basement crew are: Fred Jackson & Martin Dineley
@@louisik1 - Absolutely. Radiohead would bag out.
When the guitar comes in on 15 Steps, it's the most satisfying experience.
and then you cut the string :p
"Used to be alright... What happened?" Love it
Radiohead is just the best. Everyone is perfect. Thom, Jonny, Colin, Ed, Phil and Nigel, everyone is perfect. The best of the best.
I smile everytime I play this video.
jhb? what is this, a crossover episode? based music taste btw
This is still my favourite album. Not just Radiohead album but in general, of all time. I know some people would disagree but it‘s their best, I think. I love Kid A and Ok Computer too, which are widely considered their best, but In Rainbows has something so ... otherworldly. I have listened to this album on some of my best and some of my worst days. In the middle of the night and during random hours of the day, i can listen to this endlessly. I don’t think I could ever really put into words what it is about it that makes it so incredible for me but it just is. To me, listening to this means finding peace. From the energy of 15 steps, to one of my favorites, weird fishes, and then letting the beauty that is videotape wash over me. Perfect. Truly, a perfect album if there ever was one
It's been my thoughts EXACTLY for years !!
My favorite thing about Radiohead is that I always get into a huge argument about which is their best album...with myself...and I keep changing my mind...between like 4 or 5 albums! :)
I agree with you completely, easily considered their best album for me personally, although I love them all the same. I honestly can listen to this album for the rest of my life. Weird Fishes being the epitome. Glad I'm not the only one.
I totally agree! it’s hard to choose only one song from this album as the best...they are all top songs.
Couldn’t agree more!
Music was the biggest bond between me and my father. Nude was the last song I've heard with him. He was very sick, and died back in 2016 (2 days after we heard it) and somehow, I knew it was time for him to go when we were listening to this song together... It haven't made it hurt any less than it did, but this music now ties me deeply to his memory. A beautiful and sad song, just like our last day together... Always to be remembered.
Thanks for sharing. RIP to your dad.
Wow, thanks for sharing that very personal experience. It’s funny how music can attach to a feeling or memory like glue. You can hear a song 10 years later and it will take you RIGHT back to a specific point in time. Sorry about your father’s passing. Hopefully listening to that Radiohead song brings you solace and peace 🙏🏻
Ok
sorry for your loss. that’s beautiful
my love to you
Man…I love this band. This is required watching for any fan of MUSIC period! I watch this twice a year because…it’s genuinely genius level performances and songwriting.
"This is my way of saying goodbye, because I can't do it face-to-face So I'm talking to you before - no matter what happens now, you shouldn't be afraid 'cause today has been the most perfect day I've ever seen" How do they get through that song without crying. I choke up every time
Funny how Ed always have that "Man, i can't believe i'm part of f***ing Radiohead!" face like he's about to ask for an autograph from himself idk
Colin too!
lol this is so accurate
I love Ed, he is like “the normal guy” between them
LOL
ok.
Dedicated to all human beings
jotamat92 reckoner !!
i see what you did there!
@@salsabilahmedshrestho960 what did he do?
Reckoner...goosebumps!
and Colin's bottle
This session gonna be a significant theory for music producers and songwriters. Nigel Godrich and sound engineers deserve appreciation along with the band. DOPE!!!
"Nickel" Goodrich.. dude I'm dead 😅😅😅 if only I had a nickel for every time I heard that.. I'd be homeless 😅😅😅😅
Possibly the most gifted band I have come across.

Sounds like you're talking about 'Yod He Vav He'
ed be like 'EEEEEEEEEEEAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAD'
Radiohead is one of the bands which distributes perfectly the sound among the instruments. For example, the bass line is so simple and complex at the same time, it's independent and also every instrument has a different line, which consolidates an exceptional atmosphere.
among us
the two types of radiohead fans lmao@@kebab_boi
They will never top this. This is an hour of perfection, based on an album that's also perfect. Just perfect.
I’m sure most of people in this comment section have a perfect taste for music. I’m 17 now and I started listen to them three or four years ago in period of quarantine. To be honest, that time I was more Nirvana and G’N’R oriented listener and my Radiohead’s favourite songs were Creep and No surprises. So first time I heard this, I said to myself that this isn’t my cup of coffee. But after that I read comment sections under their music videos and everyone was saying that In Rainbows is masterpiece and I didn’t understand why! Luckily now I understand it more and more by every year. Instead of that I don’t understand how deaf I was. So that’s my story!
Nirvana and gnr?? Isnt that like a crime?
@@melkerhedblad5011 Yes, it is😂
The Beatles played on the roof, Radiohead were in the basement.
stop copy/paste
Metallica in front of a fallen Soviet Union
Beatles on the roof, Radiohead in the basement; Sickest house party ever!
so was dylan
Outstanding one
The concert that introduced me to Radiohead.
Same here; I’m so glad they’re putting it up on their own KZhead channel now.
Same here nude:) still remember Thom's vocal on Nude. Just whooh
All I need 💙
In Rainbows made me become a fan of a Radiohead 🤘🤘🤘🤘
The best record.
I'm not the most rabid or completist radiohead fanboy by a million miles but this particular set of those particular tunes is right up there with the greatest live performances ever for me. Incredible.
I want to stay in a loop here forever
Ed's backing vocals on weird fishes are so good
Gives me chills
ed is so underrated
I remember when this came out 14 years ago. It still hits the same. Musical geniuses these guys are.
Hi I recommend a new indie song called 'Looking Into The Mirror' By Robert Nix
LOL immediately recognized you while I was scrolling through the comments while rocking out to this video. 💜 -Jessica
@@fearjess HI!!!!!!!!!!!! ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
Aired on VH1 randomly at like 11 on a random night have no idea why I was lucky enough to be scrolling tv at the right time
everyone of them. from another dimension,
I stumbled upon Radiohead when In Rainbows was released. Talk about perfect timing, it's their best work. I've listened to the whole catalog and am very lucky this album was released when I was a senior in high school. Changed my life
I truly cannot fathom the person I'd be without this album. I've listened to the whole thing at least 50 times and I swear it hits me deeper every time. These sounds are human existence put into sonic form. Thank you.
This performance is mixed insanely well
Nigel is one of the best. These two major talents deserve each other
@Hunter Vonnegut Stop spam
Absolutely
gordon freeman is a radiohead fan?
It's not about the mix. It's about the musicians, engineering and instruments. This is barely even mixed or mastered. Was produced by Nigel Godreich, who has produced all of their music since OK Computer - this was his show. So, it was probably very easy for him considering he knew exactly how their music is recorded.
During the performance of Nude, the way Thom looks into the camera at 17:05 after the "You'll go to hell for what your dirty mind is thinking" crescendo.. It's as if he is looking right at the viewer with the conviction of the lyrics he just spoke. Brilliant as always.
As well as doing that entire line in three breaths. I have enjoyed his falsetto progression as he has aged from this point. You can notice his breath control get much better and at one point, do that last line in two breaths making it _really_ stick. As a vocalist, it is beautiful.
@@OfficialMyxomatosis I think that note is full voice, no? Which makes it stands out in contrast to the falsetto in the rest of the song. Either way, absolutely brilliant
I got chills
Such a pretentious comment
@@bbeaup Astute observation my friend
Something that still makes sense in this world
Inspired by a source ever present and awaiting us
The vibe is soo warm and inviting to the flow of feeling. At least for those of us who see the world in a way that echoes in-between this performance.
I'm 23 and recently got into Radiohead. I haven't been this obsessed with a band since I was 15
SAME HERE! I'm 23 too and completely obsessed now. Haha
SAME again
Hello me from 15 years ago
What was the band you were obsessed with when you were 15? What's your favorite Radiohead album(s) so far?
@@jbachman01 Oh hello future me, any cool stuff happening in my next 15 years?
The sound engineering on this session is outstanding, better then the stdiio versions imo. The panning and separation of each musician is unbelievable. When you first hear the albums you think it's all layering but you watch this and just realise you are watching pure genius at work
absolutely agree, I’m blown away listening to this with earphones after listening to the album so much
come to think of it, their basement is just a massive studio
totally agree, I said to my 15yo (who loves Radiohead) this sounds way richer and more emotional than the studio album for In Rainbows
@@ninjasaurxd +1. it's amazing.
Spot on! It is perfection and raises the bar for all musicians.
Once in a lifetime these guys. Band of my generation
Was going to add a comment why so few people seemed to appreciate this absolutely outstanding video (as the last three posts all seemed to be mine). Then clicked on "sort by" date and was most happy to see I am not a lone wolf in my absolute admiration for this performance. In recognition of this week's Māori language week here in New Zealand, I would simply like to say "Tino tino pai". Absolutely outstanding.
