Lyrics
Rows of houses, all bearing down on me
I can feel their blue hands touching me
All these things into position
All these things we'll one day swallow whole
And fade out again and fade out
This machine will not communicate
These thoughts and the strain I am under
Be a world child, form a circle
Before we all go under
And fade out again
Cracked eggs, dead birds
Scream as they fight for life
I can feel death, can see its beady eyes
* "Street Spirit (Fade Out)" is a song by the English rock band Radiohead, released on their 2nd album, The Bends (1995). It was released as a single on 22 January 1996 & reached no5 on the UK Singles Chart, Radiohead's highest position up to that point. Radiohead considered it a breakthrough in their songwriting.
Radiohead's songwriter, Thom Yorke, said "Street Spirit" was inspired by the American band R.E.M. & the 1991 novel The Famished Road by Ben Okri. It features a guitar arpeggio written by Yorke & played by Ed O'Brien. In 2018, Pitchfork wrote that the song channels a sense of capitalist dread that even class-conscious Britpop artists repressed.
Radiohead recorded several versions before settling on the final version. Yorke said later: "If I ever forget why I started this as a career, then ['Street Spirit'] is why I started ... We spent a day going round in circles until I was thinking, 'This is never going to happen'. Then suddenly something happened & I was transported to a place that I'd been willing myself to be in for months on end."
After Radiohead's previous singles had failed to match the success of their 1992 debut, Creep, Street Spirit demonstrated that they were not one-hit wonders.
Peter Gabriel recorded a cover for his album Scratch My Back (2010). According to Gabriel, Radiohead ceased communication after he sent them his version of "Street Spirit". Gabriel said his rendition was pretty extreme & had since heard that Radiohead did not like it.
The Darkness released a cover on their album 2012 Hot Cakes.
In 2020, the System of a Down drummer John Dolmayan released a cover with M. Shadows of Avenged Sevenfold & Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine on his album These Grey Men.
