the first time i heard nude the intro instantly struck me as powerfully beautiful, but mysteriously so. when it cuts away you're left suspended in tension for the resolve. finally hearing it in reverse at the end blew my MIND. one of my favorite music listening memories
was talking about this observation with another Radiohead listening friend of mine a couple of days back, kind of felt like creating something similar to this video but now no need for that! this is beautifully made!
This song is so underrated, Reckoner is good but i think Nude deserves more appreciation, the best song in the whole album in my opinion and also because this song is so personal to me.
@@Cristalskulle well it's not that underrated but most of the time people talk about "How To Disappear Completely", "Let Down" or "True Love Waits". They are really good songs but i think people leave "Nude" behind or other songs like "Just", "Everything In It's Right Place", "Blow Out", etc.
this is so true its such a calming song it makes me think of melatonin from paranoid android and they both my faves in the album nude should be more popular
This is a video on Radiohead, which starts with a quote from the masterpiece that is Synecdoche, New York. Instant subscribe, you immediately got my respect.
My ex girlfriend really loved Radiohead and we always said we'd dance to this song, broke up before we got the chance sadly, they still remind me of her
Always wondered where the reversed bit came from. Suspected it was just from another take or some other point in the song. Cool to see someone pin down exactly what part it was
I first heard this in like 2008 (right around when it came out) and not only did I hear that intro as a backwards vocal line, I waited for the upshot, for it to be done in forward motion, and it was very satisfying when it happened. This is not, like, a “big brain” moment, this is knowing what a Chekhovs gun is, that something needs to pay off if you’re gonna introduce something so prominently as that backwards recording.
I knew it, I had the feeling of a reversing sound when I listen to the intro.. now knowing that it's the ending's in reversed, I feel more soothing listening to the song
In Pink Floyd’s “the wall” the very last thing you hear before the album ends is someone saying “isn’t this where…” and the very first thing you hear at the beginning is the same voice saying, “…we came in?” So if you played it on a loop, as the album started over, it would say, “isn’t this where we came in?”.
It’s insane how theres always something new to dissect when it comes to Radiohead’s music, almost 16 years later. Just timeless.
this is crazy to me since in rainbows came out the day I was born.
16 years OMG
How on EARTH did I not already know this? It's so obvious!
Just wait there’s more
no wonder it took them 10 years to make this song, it's such a masterpiece
and seems like a demo is just the first piece to a song
Probably my favourite Radiohead song
Mine too!

This song is like a nice, big, warm blanket
nice description
Wow I never noticed, and just wanted to say this video is really well made, love the visuals
Thank you so much! I'm glad you liked it
This blew my mind! It seems so obvious now! How did I not hear it??? This revelation makes the song even more beautiful! Thank you 😊
I'm always down for more Radiohead appreciation :)
this song is just so beautiful
Sigur Ros have done similar things in their album Agaetis Byrjun, I'm sure that Nude and Radiohead fan will love that as well:)
I love me some Sigur Ros too! They're one of those bands that is always there for you, when you need them most, hey.
this broke me
yo
This is reaaaal nice work!! Simply a masterpiece
no other intro makes me happier than ‘Nude’
No other state makes me happier than nude
@@janpribyla9817LMFAO
The aesthetics of this video are so pretty. And it's informative as well. Thank you for this

I mean is it really underrated ? It's considered one of their most beautiful track

@@josephdominguez9651 Yeah ok I see what you mean
this is so true its such a calming song it makes me think of melatonin from paranoid android and they both my faves in the album nude should be more popular
@@josephdominguez9651 barely hear people talk of those songs tbh it's mainly songs from ok computer, weird fishes and nude
That intro had a reverse vibe fosho
This is the radiohead tune that resonated with me the most, and I've learnt something new at 1 in the morning. Cheers!
I love the reaction I get when I show this to people, especially people who love the song- it just adds more to it's magnificence, somehow!
"The end is the beginning and the beginning is the end"
where i end and you begin
Radiohead's music is so special people don't even notice when it's played in reverse
I always knew that there was something special with the intro, i'm amazed and in love with radiohead once again
They do this kind of thing a lot, amazing band

Idk why am so excited about this when I found out they used the reverse version of their outro but this proves more of how creative this band is xD
My ex girlfriend really loved Radiohead and we always said we'd dance to this song, broke up before we got the chance sadly, they still remind me of her
I'm sorry to hear that man, I hope you're doing okay. Thanks for stopping by :)
This is why I love Radiohead
you do like them just because a man on a studio room pressed some buttons and created audio noises? bloody hell
@@chuckbum yes.

As soon as I saw the title, I realised that I'd known there was backwards music without "realising" it all along
Always wondered where the reversed bit came from. Suspected it was just from another take or some other point in the song. Cool to see someone pin down exactly what part it was
I always had in my head that the outro is Thom singing the word 'Nude' in various melodic ways
OMG! This is amazing. Just goes to show why they'll always be one of my fav bands ever.
I did notice the song had a backwards effect on some of the drums/percussion, but THAT is really something.
This is truly the most beautiful song from Radiohead. It is majestic.
I first heard this in like 2008 (right around when it came out) and not only did I hear that intro as a backwards vocal line, I waited for the upshot, for it to be done in forward motion, and it was very satisfying when it happened.
This is not, like, a “big brain” moment, this is knowing what a Chekhovs gun is, that something needs to pay off if you’re gonna introduce something so prominently as that backwards recording.
i have been blasting this on repeat and never even noticed until now … and yeah of course I’m there which gives it that extra omg
wow this is one of my favorite songs ever and I had no idea. thanks for making this!
the production in this is so good from a small channel, hope you grow
Thank you, I wanted to do the song justice, really :)
An ending fitting for the start, LITERALLY
My god its beautiful, thank you for making this!!!!
Thank you! I'm glad ya liked it
Just woke up
And now I'm all set for radiohead.
Thanks mate.
This just WOW! Literally used to spend so much time trying to figure this kind of effect. Tried so much.
Now I know..damn Radiohead
Woah, that's so cool! Nice editing too
Thank yoooou!
Awesome stuff, and awesome awesome editing.
Thank you thank you!
genius, never realized this
Another fun fact: You could even hear the mild guitar strum in the reversed version of the Intro section.
great editing. loved the video
Thanks!
Nude is one of, if not my favs from in rainbows, and id never noticed this! Such an eerie and beautiful sound though
It took me over 17 years to check this
I knew it, I had the feeling of a reversing sound when I listen to the intro.. now knowing that it's the ending's in reversed, I feel more soothing listening to the song
I never knew it was the ending but I could tell from the vocal on the right ear that it was reversed. Neat video!
Thanks!
Probably would never notice it, yet it seems really obvious now. Insane
i love that you added the synecdoche reference
as a fan of rediohead,i didnt knew that i need so much this video,thank you
rad, and the synecdoche quote? Very rad
I’m so happy I managed to snag one Synecdoche fan :)
@@thezissou3366 me three!
i knew the intro was reversed but didnt know it was the same audio as the ending, so interesting!
This video is what helped me pull the trigger and finally give Radiohead a shot and holy fuck
This makes me very happy :)
Liked instantly for the Synecdoche, New York quote.
YES!
It's my favorite RH song. Now I love it even more
i never noticed! great video man
Thank you!
Wow, I listen to this song a million times and never noticed that
I love this song. I absolutely could not believe my ears.
every day i find out a new thing about radiohead, wow
never thought about it, but that's brilliant Thanks
this made me smile so much
i always loved the intro but never noticed this
In 1974 Robert Wyatt went even further with the track Little Red Riding Hood Hit The Road, which is an almost complete palindrome song.
There's something in this song that gives me goosebumps
thanks for the vid, made me laugh out
geniuses - all of them.
Awesome video!
Thank You!
You know it’s Radiohead when it sounds good backwards
it also feels like the harmonies were made louder in the intro
The more I know about Nude, the more perfect it gets
Holy shit
idk if it was intentional or not but the fact that the video loops perfectly aswell is the cherry on top
Definitely, 100% intentional my dude 😉
haha neat
Reminds me of "I'm Only Sleeping" ❤️
Rain does something similar - uses reversed vocals from the middle of the song in the outro.
I have never heard Rain. Are they alt rock?
@@shivjithsreejith5879 rain is a beatles song bro
I see. That's nice. Look it's one of the six or seven songs I've never heard from Past Masters.
Always a pleasure to discover new Beatles songs.
amazing video
Thanks!
imagine playing reversed live, insane dudes
I don’t believe they ever played that reversed segment live
They don't play that bit live, they just go straight to the bassline ua-cam.com/video/9cBUrIw2sQk/v-deo.html
If they wanted to they could probably play it with their guitars muted while the loop pedal was recording, then reverse it, then unmute the guitar
wow this is actually really cool
Wow. Never noticed that. Brilliant move on their part.
Ah yes. Just like my UA-cam journey started with These Are My Twisted Words in reverse.
Interesting! I don't know how I didn't know this.
Had to search the song played in reverse and stumbled upon this video
Now I can use it in a more horrifying twist
goddamn radiohead this song is pure beauty
nice visuals!!
It sounded so clean, please, make a full cover!
Amazing!
Wow...I never realized that.
I have no idea how I didn't know this
this thing gave me chills
And here I was thinking the ending was the beginning reversed like an idiot
I love this video!!!
this blew my mind
Art in motion, reverse motion.
The editing feels like Tracklib
You know the final bit at the very VERY end? The single rising vocal?
ALL I ever hear is "The Little Mermaid"!
I knew that. I noticed it the first time I've listened to it
Comment #222 ✌🏼
Good stuff Zissou, thank you 😉
Thank you
I always thought the intro sounded familiar and suspicious, like it was originally something else they mixed and cut in.
I had no clue it was from the very same song though. I thought it was some random other recording they cut up, reversed, and mixed into the beginning.
That is genius.
In Pink Floyd’s “the wall” the very last thing you hear before the album ends is someone saying “isn’t this where…” and the very first thing you hear at the beginning is the same voice saying, “…we came in?”
So if you played it on a loop, as the album started over, it would say, “isn’t this where we came in?”.
