They never learn

Beyond the point
Of no return
Of no return

And it's too late
The damage is done
The damage is done

This goes
Beyond me
Beyond you
The white room
By window
Where the sun goes
Through

We are
Just happy to serve
Just happy to serve
You

I drove my 12 year old kid to school last week and this song came on the car audio. She stopped talking and listened for the entire song. She was frozen in place.
I asked her: did you like it?
Her answer: I don't know. I think it is beautiful but it scared me too and makes me want to cry. This is Radiohead, isn't it?

Yeah, this is Radiohead.



Radiohead - making your kids want to cry since 1995.

That's the brand.

Or, practice opening your mind without them.

Only 6.6? If the video could accompany this it would bolster the rating, I'm sure.
Oh Radiohead, please come out with a new album soon! 
Ths track reminds me of a musician called Disasterpeace. I would like this a lot more without the vocals...
A wonderful album overall. Originally, it took some quality time with it for me to truly appreciate the nuance, beauty, and artistry of it (and, yes, I'm a huge RH fan).

What happened to appreciating a diverse array of sometimes differing opinions?

Also this song is Not Good.
By Radiohead. Always gonna interesting, innit?

No.
Love Radiohead!!!!
Completely monotonous.  But I guess that's good for some things.

I'm stymied... need to up-vote this comment for wit, then down-vote it for the sentiment.  I chuckle while disagreeing.
It teaches Young a lesson. Welcome to the 21st
Great!
I was carrying a thinly sliced pork sandwich into my living room, it looked so appetizing after I had finished making it, and I was looking forward to eating it when, after sitting down and making myself comfortable, I was quickly reminded with my first bite that I have some troubling TMJ issues. The end.

Love the comment. It made me chuckle, but I still love Radiohead. I wish my cats had this much talent.
Love Radiohead soft or hard, Brilliant!

There are days when I love that sweet sweet ambient Radiohead.

Today is not one of those days.

Boy this is close to PSD.  I really can not wrap my ears around these guys.  Maybe if they dropped the vocals  but even then they are getting stale.
 
They started this stuff with "Fitter, Happier", which was embarrassing.  I don't love them anymore.

That's always true.  What's that got to do with the song, though?

3?....wow to generous 
Thankee Lordee for RH. One of the brightest objects in the musical Firmament.

In 2219 it will be, like Bach, definitive evermore.

It blends into the next song too, making it extra annoying.

Simply horrible.  I just don't get it. {#Stupid}
Radiohead is a finely tuned machine.  
Subtle, delicate and simple, it's a crafted illusion masterfully done.

AWESOME SONG! Thanks for playing this track.
Thom r u OK?

don't you mean "corP"?
YEEEECH!  How does anyone put this out for sale?  Awful, awful.

No, I don't like this song. Yes, I've PSDed.

I do like quite a few Radiohead songs, but RP just plays too much of this band. I tune in almost every day and inevitably I hear Thom quavering out something I don't like or singing something I used to like but don't anymore because I've heard it too many times here. 

I know a lot of Reeps love Radiohead but wow the thrill is gone for me. I'm off to contribute some money to the cause since it seems to be that time according to the big yellow banner but I'm not happy about it. 
This is very much not to my liking....

Wait, if both tunes had backwards tracking then maybe The Beatles tune somehow preceded this one on the playlist.
{#Eek} 

 
It could be something like backward times backward equals a forward, which I guess doesn't mean anything except one step forward two steps back. I just don't know...
I tried to get into this band and actually like a few tunes off OK Computer but holy crap, their songs really do sound the same. Long. Boring. Whiny.
Just can't get into them I guess. 
Play Coldplay - Midnight after this...
I love Radiohead.  They are musical pioneers...
After first listening to the end: 6
Now after more listening: 9
A simple melody, but so impressive!
Beyond me, beyond you, half my life{#Confused}

Was that backward tracking at the end?  Much like The Beatles tune that followed this tune.

snoring at the end gets my vote

A maximum rating no higher than 10? Maybe we should add an 11 for songs like these... and for AC/DC tracks of course! {#Wink}

This is going to take a few listens......

I do like the CD cover art, Yes-like.   

5 plays in the last month?  Must be a lot of RH fans on RP.........    'cause this tune does not justify 5 plays a month.  

 
I think it justifies 6.9 plays a month.

I always feel as though liking Radiohead is de rigeur among the cool kids but for the life of me I just can't do it. It would help if Thom Yorke could sing, but he can't carry a tune on a shovel.
CREEPY!!
First time I've heard this. It's beautiful.  And repetitive.  And dreary. The damage is done, alright.  
When Neil Young "sings" like this, half the board gets up in arms.
I'll listen to the end. TY and RH can daydream for others to hear. The snoring is a bit much. 
 
This is it. No more needed. Loveit...

Soooo beautiful. 

But the end is a bit spooky no? What is he saying?

 
Based on the lyric sheet, my guess is that he's singing "I've found my love". Or maybe it's 'Paul is dead'.
An absolutely incredible album by Radiohead... this one a rather haunting track.
I'm not absolutely certain but the backward masking references "half my life gone"

The video lends quite a bit of weight to the song, check it out.
23 doors that he walks thru, 23 years with his former wife/companion.

Overall, the ochrestral music that J Greenwood adds as well as Thom's vocal's... in my mind one of their absolute best offerings.

Listen with some good headphones ... just amazing.
 
AH BILL !!!
You have the segue groove today!  BRMC to PH to Radiohead...nice{#Cheesygrin}
Pull the damn plug already!

The segue to Tomorrow Never Knows. Perrrfect.
First time hearing this and it is beautiful. Just downloaded. Thanks Bill!
He's still whining.
Bizarre music video~ but oh how I love my Radiohead~ {#Music}
Off key moaning.  PSD

This is making me feel dizzy.

Very Genesis like, simply beautiful.

Nice job in getting this in rotation the day it came out! The video is pretty cool too. Very dreamy.
