The lead guitarist Jonny Greenwood plays a glockenspiel on this song. Ed O'Brian's electric guitar works around the same melody as the glockenspiel and Thom Yorke plays an acoustic with a 3rd fret capo as kind of a rhythm guitar backing.
DAD: "Is David Bryne {lead singer of Talking Heads} in that band?" Interesting tidbit: Radiohead derived their name from the song "Radio Head" that is on the Talking Heads 1986 album True Stories. SON: When you think he's ready, perhaps have your dad sit through the entire OK Computer album. Everything in its right place.
wow that’s so interesting. i was gonna have ok computer happen after this next video wow
engaging with the whole artistic angle is a way to standout with the reaction part. nice work.
YUS
How can the lyrics not be as important? The lyrics are what make this song such a vicious rib kick that perfectly complements the lullaby-like melody
“A handshake of carbon monoxide” - what a resignation and acceptance of modern life.
Love this...perfect Reaction video. Intelligent & honest.
I think in a lot of cases with Radiohead, the lyrics aren't as much about the actual words as they are a vehicle for his vocals which are more of an instrument in themselves. Lovely video! Dad is very cool.
that is a great way to describe it! I always felt similar with their lyrics. Appreciate the support
Here we come, all the Radiohead-fans who love when new people react to them, we usually flood in 🤣 2022? Oh you sweet summer child ❤ A bit of an odd choice for a first song, but I look forward to hearing more of them. I have listened to this since 1997 and still haven't heard the lyrics really. I always listen to the music first from Radiohead, so much to listen to. Nothing since 2016 no. If the bells throw you I look forward to you listening to Kid A. 😂 To me, folk music with that much focus on the lyrics is a bit boring to be honest, like folk music.
LOL i will make sure Kid A comes soon
The best music treats the vocals as just another instrument. The lyrics are painting broad abstract while carrying a melody along.
If you do another sit down reaction like this, you should totally pull up the lyrics on genius on a phone or ipad so he doesn't have to hunch over to read them !
solid idea
Give him OK COMPUTER
I love your dad
i fucking hate him

Yorke and Greenwood (+drummer Skinner) formed The Smile. Have you checked it out? iz gut!

No, it's Radiohead, not Talking Heads.
I also like the latter.
