- Please could you stop the noise, I'm trying to get some rest
From all the unborn chicken voices in my head
What's that? (I may be paranoid, but not an android)
What's that? (I may be paranoid, but not an android)
When I am king, you will be first against the wall
With your opinion which is of no consequence at all
What's that? (I may be paranoid, but no android)
What's that? (I may be paranoid, but no android)
Ambition makes you look pretty ugly
Kicking and squealing gucci little piggy
You don't remember
You don't remember
Why don't you remember my name?
Off with his head, man
Off with his head, man
Why don't you remember my name?
I guess he does
Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me
From a great height
From a great height
Height
Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me
From a great height
From a great height
Height
Rain down, rain down
Come on rain down on me
That's it, sir
You're leaving
The crackle of pigskin
The dust and the screaming
The yuppies networking
The panic, the vomit
The panic, the vomit
God loves his children, God loves his children, yeah

This song's like bohemian rhapsody, like it's telling an entire story in different acts, it's so theatrical. It's like a play.
I would love to hear an orchestra of this song
nerdie new agreed. Someone should talk to Hans Zimmer about making that happen.😂
this is what we call a ballad
Thanks, I thought I was the only one, I'm glad I'm not alone in my perspective
@@brendonbalascan6814 ohhh how I miss a good ballad. I was just listening to Cold November Rain by Guns And Roses. I think it may be one of the most underrated songs of all time, Slash’s guitar solos alone can bring a tear to my eye. Why can’t they make music like that again?!!!!
Never in my life have i heard the term ' chicken voices' sung so beautifully
I tell myself it’s “shaking” just because my brain doesn’t want it to be chicken
@@angryprimalbug5417 this. 😭😭
@Jack Lambert For the longest time I thought it was android chicken voices. I still sing it like that. It also sounds like he's singing "What's this?" I sing it that way too.
have you heard it sung often?
Fun fact: In the original album he doesn't sing "God loves his children" twice, but rather he sings:
"God loves his children, that's why he kills them, yeah"
@Jett Richard A tip: get your fucking spam out of here.
That’s not a very fun fact…
@@angryprimalbug5417 I guess opinions on what's fun and what's not differ. :)
Why do you think he changed it?
@@lucasmucas9072 I'm going to guess the record label didn't like it, but that's purely speculation.

No, I did love this piece of art at once!
To me this song paints a picture of what it's like to be in a nightmare. The crazy guitar part at the end of the song sounds so erratic that it reminds me of one of those surreal fever dreams where all sorts of bizarre things are happening and you're overwhelmed with panic.
OMG, that makes a lot of sense, the video for this song reminds me of a nightmare too :O
+Karuta Roromiya hell yeah, the video is unsettling
+IceCoLDMK 03 nodding in aggreement
+IceCoLDMK 03 ...and probably filled with a sense of "helpless bystander" and blind anger, when faced with the insanity and evil in the world, which Thom has said he's experienced.

the "rain down" part is one of the best things that happened to me
So euphoric
Can't beat water sports. 😂😂😂😂
This album is prophetic. That's why it's the best album of the 90s.
It's the best album of all time yeejit
@@mark1. It is certainly up there with the best albums of all time. OK Computer is to digital what Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band is to analog: a zeitgeist. For a rock band from the 90s to achieve that is nothing short of supernatural.
@@ThaiThom sgt peppers ain't even the beatles best album
@@blistersonmefingers3343 While that may be true - and it is debatable - Sgt. Peppers is the Beatles most iconic album if not the most iconic album of all time.

After one of my cats died I listened to OK Computer and when the first lyrics to Paranoid Android began I started to burst into tears for the whole duration of the album. Powerful album, I gotta admit.
The first two minutes of Paranoid Android choke me up every single time!
heh, that's funny.

This is widely considered one of the greatest songs ever written.
Is it though? Widely?
@@BlamingBuddha yes
That's true about every Radiohead song 😁😁😁
Bro its Radiohead...
I'm widely considered a buffoon.
Perfect song for sitting back, and just making a movie in your head. Incredible
My movie involves me being Joe Wick while fighting off replicants while getting a blowjob from a T-Rex. But my dick is a starship.
I think it'd be a big hit.
The part with only vocals is just phenomenal...The harmony is amazing..Every time I'm in total ecstasy when I hear it!
More rock bands need to add a choral interlude in the middle of their songs.
the panic, the vomit.
god loves his children.
Ah, but do they love Him? If so they wouldn't question when they suffer as a consequence of their actions. I'm paranoid, no android.
@livharigan Do you expect us to be immortal ?
@@stephencharlesrowden3622 based on their actions? What about children dying from hunger and malnutrition then? What sins have they committed?
Mankind is responsible for world hunger. We mustn't blame God. God has given mankind freewill, and let him govern this planet.
Mankind's selfish greed causes world hunger, and malnutrition.
But God has a plan. This world is temporary. It is passing. Even the scientists and meteorologists are beginning to realise that. And who's to blame for destroying this planet God created? The answer is man!
Yet God is merciful. He sent His only begotten Son, that all who call upon Him shall be saved, and find life eternal free from sin, and suffering.
If anyone rejects the Son, they only have themselves to blame, and they will be judged, and condemned for all eternity.
What is a brief lifetime of suffering, compared to eternity in paradise?
@Siddhant Ghimiray Read my reply above. I forgot to tag it.
God is love.
But the god of this world is the devil. He is a temporary landlord, awaiting his fate, along with his seed.
Soon, there will be no more hunger, no more tears, no more suffering for all eternity.
Only a blind fool would reject this!
i love this so much i think is unhealty

This song stopped me in my tracks. I was driving, it came on the radio and I had to pull over and just let it wash over me. Wow...
Damm
Same. I was on my way to work in the morning. I knew who Radiohead were, but when I heard this song, I knew I was going to be a lifelong fan.
If mood swing can tell it emotions through a song. Maybe this is one of them.
Exactly, how I felt about 'No surprises' too. Like the song portrayed the mood exactly, like some days you 'feel' like the song.
This reminds me a lot of Radiohead
i hope ure joking

Really? It reminds me more of Motorhead.

This song sounds like the cacophony of thoughts inside a person's head , it may seem random at first but somehow it all adds up
My favourite Radiohead song. The guitar in this is just brilliant! An epic track.
Just started appreciating how amazing the guitar is after watch a live version.
Psychedelia at its best- I can't even decide what I'm feeling.
Fr
I think it takes you through every emotion known and maybe some not known. It's genius!
Watching ergo proxy when an english ending song came up. Didnt recognize the band but i heard the voice before. Then i looked it up and saw it was radiohead. and now this is on repeat constantly :D
ikr same XD
I scrolled down in the comments only to find Ergo Proxy references ;-)
Pino so cuteee
So well crafted it still amazes me twenty something years later.
It has so many rough and sharp edges , quirky pieces and apparently chaotic lines that it doesn’t make sense it sounds so rounded, balanced, naturally put together... perfect. Like it just emerged, like it exists by universal necessity, when at the same time it’s unrepeatable, an exception that hence couldn’t happen twice in a billion of years.
Think how many damn things had to align for this song to exist and be played by all the major stations and music themed Tv channels... it kinda shouldn’t be there, but it does and now it’s way to eternity is unstoppable.
one of the greatest musical creations ever
Wow, just amazing. I stumbled upon this song randomly. I love it so much already. It's like if Muse and Queen combined. I have a feeling there will be some RadioHead in my future.
It's been 6 years. Any update? 😂
@@mysticmermani was obsessed with them in highschool and never recovered. am now listening to doom metal 24/7

I just heard this in Ergo Proxy credits
Same
I watched some episodes of Ergo Proxy and didn't continue. Should I try again?
@@taasinbinhossainalvi9173 I would say yes it's a great anime just have patience and watch
@@taasinbinhossainalvi9173 if you like sci fi that isn't too challenging but enjoyable, yes. It's a fantastic watch imo, if you like to let go of your expectations and enjoy the story. It's one that makes you think after, and definitely good for a rewatch as well. The dub is probably my favorite but the sub has amazing english VAs, Liam and Karen (and Patrick) are just titans in every role they take. If you like a little mystery sci fi that is fun but not sweet, this is a good show for you. If you liked cowboy bebop but only want to watch 23 episodes, give ergo proxy another go. It's one of those artistic animes.
@@taasinbinhossainalvi9173 The show as a whole doesn't really make sense but some of the individual episodes are genius
An interpretation I read:
The first part of the song "Please could you..." to "What's that..." resembles the paranoid person (not hard to interpret giving the first couple lines).
The second part "Ambition makes you look pretty ugly" to "I guess he does" is the paranoids person's antagonist (someone who always speaks his mind and brings down the paranoid person).
And the rest of the song resembles the android.
Take a look at the video with this in mind.
Dayumn... Id always thought of it as a paranoid guy seeing things and it driving him to suicide but this, this is good.
this sounds more like Muse than Muse does
So very true
There is no muse in the vocals (duh) but the rest of it gives showbiz and a bit of black holes and revelations
Until the second part which is more absolution than absolution. Oos vocals too
Then the next but sounds a bit like the finale song of drones mixed with simulation theory with a bit of showbiz, and then that goes (still oos vocals in a way).
Then it’s back to absolution guitar with a bit of drones.
@@jpbdude4223 Indeed
@@MuseOSRS yeah
Muse is a joke compared to this, bud.
The Bass Line is the king.
this song explains alot about society.
and the fact that in the video they posted the michael jackson looking guy cared more about the main character than the authorities or the main character's friend is just too accurate.
Thom only gave the music to the animation artist. He didn't want the lyrics to influence the video, so it's 100% inspired by the music!
I think the song ilustrates what is to live whith anxiety the first days it appears
I recently made a list of the top 500 songs of all time. This song was #1. Here's my description from Rate Your Music:
"If you've looked through this list, my choice for the number one song ever probably won't surprise you. Of all the songs I've heard in my life, none of them (not even Radiohead's other songs) can send me to the place this song does.
"Paranoid Android" is the pinnacle of all songs. It's the perfect blend of beauty, anger, confusion, wonder, irony, transcendence, human tragedy and hopelessness, and ultimate "fuck all of you assholes" spiritual awakening! It truly sends an open mind through the universe of human emotions. Somehow, Radiohead gives dystopia a rare view that's equally beautiful and terrifying.
The first two minutes are the most beautiful two minutes I've ever heard. I'm not lying when I say that I can't listen to it without choking up. I've played the song hundreds of times, and it fills my senses and emotions every time.
After the blissed out two minutes, the song takes a mood swing and the new direction shows off the talents of every band member with the amazing Philip Selway leading the way with his stellar percussion talents. While Thom spits lyrics about more assholes (or squealing Gucci little piggies, as he likes to call them) the new direction is suddenly interrupted with Johnny Greenwood's chainsaw electric guitar attack, and with Thom screaming "Why don't you remember my name?", the boys stay in their nearly perfect "acid rock" detour for just long enough before you're dropped into the abyss.
The next minute and a half is a totally different "suite" that bathes in the healing power of falling rain, and it feels like an awakening of sorts even as it slips back into hell as Thom slurs "The panic, the vomit, the panic, the vomit, god loves his children, god loves his children, yeah!" And then another attack by Johnny that leads into one of the strangest, most creative guitar solos ever, before the whole thing abruptly stops.
Tell me this song is like "Bohemian Rhapsody" one more time, and I might panic and vomit! It's the ultimate journey through every feeling felt and not felt by humans. A masterpiece of masterpieces. And there you have it. I said it. Let it be known. Ha!"
Nail on the head my friend
This comment seems more like a promotion of your content rather than an actual comment
@@kaan8964 right. That's why I didn't post a link to it. And I only posted my review of the song. Nice observation! 😂
Pinnacle of songs? Yeah maybe but not the pinnacle of music
@@artofcinematography2840 I literally said "pinnacle of all songs." 🙂
the 90's was the last best generation
Augh just shoosh!!! The 90s were a whole ten years and I might not seam like much but we have just about passed 10 years in the 2000s and there has been a lot better music than this (not saying this isn't flipping epic) but just to say nothing has happened since then to now, yes there is a lot more dubstep and pop but there is still some pretty skilled musicians just like radio head out there and some to still be discovered
Born 1999, I got basically the last of the 90s until I was about 5 or 6 then the 2000s strolled in to take everything away.
littleferrhis im ancient, was born in 81, there were dinosaurs n everything.
D0S81 I'm almost 16 dude, not almost 9, I am no idiot.
born in 1991. the 90's had amazing music, but so did the 60's, 70's and 80's. great music does not tell time, it only tells us to feel
Rediscovered this song watching Ergo Proxy for the first time, I was shocked to hear this as an end theme song for an anime, but damn, it really fits the show.
same here! i was so shocked when i found out lolol
moja pierwsza fascynacja radiohead. Prawie o niej zapomniałam. Słodkie zanurzenie w strumieniu przeszłości

You should try listening to "No surprises". Very beautiful.
2020 the days of social isolation anyone?
here here
Stop asking that! It's like asking Who is another human here? The whole planet is in isolation.
MUSIC IS AMAZING. THIS BAND IS HISTORY OF MUSIC!
This is one of the most underrated songs of all time. Just listen to it. Its amazing.
The "rain down" part always gets me! Excellently performed by Thom York
It really is. The “rain down” part always, to me, felt like people exploring through a forgotten temple. It just always had that feel for me, and the words are riveting too.
A masterpiece, the likes of which are seldom heard or appreciated for that matter
"God loves his children, That's why he kills them yeah!"
-Radiohead 1997
I played Detroit Become Human and now this is stuck in my head
lol the people here that are like 'its about a nightmare' 'its about a movie' nah fam its about the revolution
I think this song talks about a paranoid schizophrenia episode.
That would explain a lot ( supposing it isn't a Donnie darko kind of schizophrenia episode)
The song’s name came from the h2g2 character Marvin the Paranoid Android.
Me Too
Yes
I think moods is a better word
I listened to this song a lot but never really listened to the lyrics. even i dint listen to it this song gives me goosebumps every time. now with the lyrics its more breathtaking i love this song!
"When I am king you'll be the first against the wall" This song definitely takes you on a trip!
I seriously really love this song so much, RadioHead is amazing.
Still listen to this in 2024... but THIS particular song? I can't hear without thinking of Ergo Proxy.
Marvin, the Paranoid Android.
This song has aged quite well.
I am proud to go to the same school as all the members did of radiohead and to live in the same town as they grew up in, Radiohead forever!
Honestly I perceived this song to be in the mind of someone with schizophrenia
There are some bands that have just that one song that can make them famous forever. This song alone could make radiohead forever memorable, but they got an entire album full of 1 in a million songs. It is my honest opinion that ok computer is the best rock album of all time
I could throw out some contenders, but none that would surpass.
It's a damn good opinion and you're certainly not alone in that opinion!
this song sucks after 6:25
+Aloul Boudi i agree totally
true
+Aloul Boudi Meh, it's worse after 6:23, especially in the music video (or rather just weirder than this weird song is), where a disembodied man is fed by a bird
+Luke Cai true
+Luke Cai the part where he accidentally cuts off his own arms and legs still disturbs me even as of this day. i remember seeing a music video like that when i was young and completely forgot about the title until i googled searched "music video man chops off limbs" years later
I gotta say, this song is freaking awesome!
Just knowing this song when watching anime Ergo Proxy, damn..so right theme with that anime..
The agent of death
Yes!
Pino Proxy
I agree this really is a masterpiece.
I know exactly what you mean. I am 66 yrs old and radiohead is my favorite group hands down.
Real!!
best song in the shower
Facts
Rain down, from a great height
what a shame kids will never undersrand a song like this anymore.
It's not like it's some deep philosophical stuff anyway
Im 12 years old and i love all radiohead songs lol
My favorite radiohead song and one of my favorite songs of all time.
this, no suprises, exit music, karma police, creep, all the high lights of this album and really although with each coming album fluctuating its sound and rythem its debatible based upon the listeners overall preference in sound of music to decide their personal favorite radio head songs but id hav to go out and say this is their best album.
Creep wasn't on OK Computer. It was on their debut, Pablo Honey.
84Bronco351 And in my opinion, one of their worst songs.
I like it, but it's not their best
84Bronco351 I can't help but severely hate creep. It just sounds too... Normal for radiohead. Ever since OK Computer was in development, Thom just stopped caring if people would listen to his brilliant ideas or not. He just made them. Pablo Honey sort of sounds like the album they made just to say "hey, we exist too, we're a thing". Well, I guess it worked.
***** Well, I guess I prefer normal side of radiohead over their other usual stuff then.
Dont mind me. Just getting my daily dose of paranoid android.

my good taste on music brought me here
i remember seeing this video when i was 8 and it really turned my stomach because i have such a phobia of shit like that and it stayed with me to where ive been looking for it i havent seen it since than until now. its animated but yet it still has that power too hit you . Im not saying this in a bad way i like it and the whole message.
this is what i feel when i watch those thin-legged birds in Labyrinth
I still can't watch the video.
el ending de ergo proxy *-*. realmente la canción me eriza
one of the best album ever
Playing this in orchestra, first show in two days, killer piece XD
If I had a time machine I would go forward in time and bring Radiohead music with me
Radiohead 1 of the best bands of all time . And the lyrics and videos to their songs spark more debate than any other band I have seen .
+paul atkinson Indeed, OK Computer remains one of the best albums of all time.
Pablo honey and the bends not bad either :)
When I am king, you will be first against the wall
Yeah I fucking love that line....
Lot of mother fuckers I'll shoot against a wall, when I'm king.
I turned 59 last week so I've encountered my fair share of arseholes
Oh look...the ending song for Ergo Proxy
I never knew songs from popular English bands could even be in Japanese anime
Pretty sure he says "What's this?" instead of "What's that?"
3:35 if you know, you know
Also, any Ergo Proxy fans here 8)
Here pinooo
Im here because of Rick Beato. Wow. I've never listened to anything by radio head, i love it!
This song is amazing, my sister tells me that Radiohead is depressing. But to me it feels like something that I can relate too. This song expresses my true insides. I love how this song has three parts like the first one which is nice, second part which is hard like rock and especially the last parts. Amazing song! OK Computer and The Bends are really great albums.
Only a fan of a select few bands like Pink Floyd, Mars Volta and prog rock bands. Never listened to this band. This is good shit.
Not sure if very deep, or just nonsensical brainfart
Both
Nonsensical brainfart i guess
A very deep nonsensical brainfart
My interpretation of the song is forces unknown are trying to control people, to make people act like androids...
yes
I love this song, its my favorite along with jigsaw falling into place
First time heard this as outro in the Anime ErgoProxy
