Rebuilding Hail to the Thief
Вставка
- Опубліковано 20 вер 2024
- It's an open secret that Hail to the Thief came out with a pretty messy tracklisting. With the band considering the idea of reissuing the album, I thought it would be fun to speculate on the concept of them rearranging the track order; and how a potential re-done tracklisting for Hail to the Thief would turn out.
HTTT Variants:
I thought I would be able to just upload the versions I edited to UA-cam on my alt but they got blocked worldwide, even though I wasn't monetizing them. Seems kinda like no shit but sometimes full albums get uploaded to UA-cam without getting taking down but I don't possess the juju to be able to do something like that. Well anyways
if you know of a way that I can share the album variants without getting sued to hell for committing a piracy then let me know cuz I'm a little stumped
Until then here's a Spotify link to The Gloaming (w.a.s.t.e variant):

oh my god
Using both versions of I Will to bookend the album seems like an actual great idea! Kinda like Pink Floyd's Animals does it (my fav PF album)
Thank you! And oh yeah I forgot that Animals did that. The Wall kinda does it too with the "isn't this where we came in?" thing. And I think Dark Side of the Moon does something similar? I'm going off the top of my head, but, damn, I love Pink Floyd so much. Would love to do a video on them one day. But where do I start? Maybe Meddle.
@@pookapeeka do something like a deep-discog dive! like a beeg video. I think you covering everything they've done would be awesome, maybe a cool multipart series

10. Backdrifts
11. Where I End And You Begin
12. We Suck Young Blood
13. Scatterbrain
14. A Wolf At The Door
My tracklist is super simple,
I call it _Half Of The Thief:_
*1) 2 + 2 = 5*
*2) Sit Down. Stand Up*
*3) Go To Sleep*
*4) Where I End and You Begin*
*5) There, There*
*6) Myxomatosis*
*7) A Wolf At the Door*
From
14 songs, 56 minutes, to
7 songs, 28 minutes.
Cut it in *half.*
Like a *thief.*
And I have another playlist called _Rest Of The Thief,_ which is just the 7 songs cut out in the order they appear. All pretentiousness aside, I think it's fun to listen to the album like this and jump between A & B.
Leaving out Sail to the Moon is a crime (although you have separated the album into two halves)
Let’s be real, HTTT should’ve been a double album like every fucking Radiohead album
Moon Shaped Limbs moment
I remember someone bringing up the idea of dividing the album into two distinct sides. One would be the more normal, traditional rock side, and the other would be the more experimental and electronic side. I thought it was a cool idea, so that's what I tried to do.
Side 1
1. 2+2=5
2. Sit Down. Stand Up
3. Sail To The Moon
4. Go To Sleep
5. There, There
6. I Will
Side 2
1. The Gloaming
2. Backdrifts
3. A Wolf At the Door
4. Scatterbrain
5. Myxomatosis
6. Where I End and You Begin
The first three tracks would stay the same. 2+2=5 is a perfect opener, and SDSU follows it up perfectly. I also like how Sail To The Moon switches up the energy of the album.
Go To Sleep is another more low-key song, and it has very natural sounding instrumentation, so I think it makes a good transition from Sail To The Moon into There, There.
I Agree that There, There works best towards the middle of the album, and I Will is a perfect breather after that song in my opinion, although I do really like your idea of using it as a bookend for the album. I Will basically serves as a transition into the second side of the album.
Having The Gloaming here makes it feel more significant as the opener to Side 2. I also think it works well as an introduction to the more experimental second half. Backdrifts basically builds off of the same sound of The Gloaming, being super electronic and experimental.
A Wolf At the Door can be swapped with Where I End and You Begin, but I really like WIEAYB as a closer, so this was the best place I could think to put it. Going from Backdrifts into this song would probably be a bit jarring, but I think A Wolf At the Door sets up the last three songs really nicely.
Myxomatosis and Scatterbrain work really well together imo, so I still wanted them to be next to each other, but I felt switching them was better for the overall flow of this version of the album.
Like I said, I really like this song as a closer. The end of the song has a climactic end of album feel to it imo. Ending on the lines "I will eat you alive" would be super dark, but I think it would fit the album very well. Although, Wolf At the Door is an equally good closer. I just wanted to do something a bit different.
I'm full agreement with you that the original track list is pretty much fine. HTTT is my third favorite Radiohead album, because of how chaotic and raw it feels compared to other Radiohead albums. With that being said, the less coherent nature of this album makes it really fun to make alternate track listings for it.
I really like the alternate tracklist you made for HTTT because instead of trying to make the album into something it's not, it just tweaks and refines whats so great about the original
My tracklist:
1. Creep
2. Let Down (Underrated)
3. Pop is Dead
4. Yellow
5. Fitter Happier
6. Creep (Very 2021 Remix)
7. Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors
8. Anyone Can Play Guitar
9. Plug in Baby
subjectively the best one
10. Nobody Can Play Trombone
11. Anyone can play guitar (Live At The MTV Beach house )
2+2=5 not being first is diabolical. I've grown quite nostalgic to the sound of the intro on my portable dvd player, since it was the first ever radiohead CD I've ever got.
I did something similar once- I decided to make it a shift from autumnal nocturnes to a rainy dystopian nightmare. The tracklist I ended up with was:
1. There There
2. Scatterbrain
3. Sail to the Moon
4. Where I End and You Begin (the transition from the latter to this is amazing)
5. 2 + 2 = 5
6. Sit Down. Stand Up
7. The Gloaming
8. Myxomatosis
9. We Suck Young Blood
10. A Wolf at the Door
This way it goes from this gorgeous acoustic and autumnal fall feeling to this glitchy mad feeling by the end of the album. The sequencing between 3 --> 8 is like a descent into madness. By WSYB as the penultimate track, you've pretty much lost it.
I also did Amnesiac. The result was:
1. The Amazing Sounds of Orgy
2. Pyramid Song
3. Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors
4. If You Say the Word
5. Hunting Bears
6. I Might Be Wrong
7. Dollars and Cents
8. Kinetic
9. Fog
10. Like Spinning Plates
11. Life in a Glasshouse
My tracklist:
1. Sit Down Stand Up
2. The Gloaming
3. My Name Is Jonas
4. No One Else
5. The World Has Turned And Left Me Here
6. Buddy Holly
7. Undone - The Sweater Song
8. Surf Wax America
9. Say It Ain't So
10. In The Garage
11. Holiday
12. Only In Dreams
13. [secret track] Wonderwall
thank you pooka i almost forgot to listen to this album again for the 16th time this month
I just recently got into that thom yorke alt tracklist, so seeing a video by you talking about it is super cool!
Just listened to HTTT for the first time ever today (I’m a newer fan). Wanted to save this album for tail end of my listening experience, so now I just have AMSP left!
Had no idea there was a significant interest among fans to reorder/refine this album. I find it very cool, since it gives the album (as a cohesive piece of art/culture) all the more meaning. Thanks for making this order and this video! 🎸
Also, just watched my first saw film last night, so the inclusion of the picture towards the end was uncanny. 💀

14. A Wolf At the Door
The band saying it was too long is ridiculous. Fans shouldn't have complained. You got more music. Rhcp took on the ambitious project of making stadium arcadium. A 28 song record that is for me their best record and at least for the majority of rhcp up in the top 3. It ended up being 122 minutes and feels like a great musical journey. Now rhcp and Radiohead are two very different bands but my point is don't judge a record by looking at the runtime and saying it's too long.
Right man. It was pretty standard for some artists to max out the limit of a CD to make sure that the listeners got the most bang for their buck. Soundgarden, RHCP, and especially a LOT of hip hop artists. Radiohead claiming a 55 minute album is overkill is just kinda goofy.
I tried your playlist and I think it sounded pretty good! The only thing I'd change is I Will ( los Angeles vers.) with Gagging order, cause the calming acoustic to end the album with lyrics that, ironically, fits pretty well imo, like the chorus part;
"Move along now, there's nothing left to see.
Just a body, nothing left to see"
-implicated that the album is over, move along with your life and eat some breakfast and a nice cup of tea, just to take the edge off.
Now, I do agree with everyone that a wolf at the door can't be beaten to cover the ending of the album's narrative. From my point of view , I see the song I Will as a prologue and Gagging Order as an epilogue, basically like reading a book that has an introduction and a conclusion. To add on that ( and perhaps I'm also over analysing this album waaaay too much), iirc Thom yorke wanted to adopt a strategy to filter the political themes in the album into childlike simplicity, by adding phrases and themes from fairy tales and folklores in children's literature and television. I stand on that information because I've always felt like the whole album is like an audiobook for "kids", aka their fans, voiced by Thom , to sit down ( or stand up) and listen.
I love all the Sonic music in the background. Radiohead is my favorite band and the classic Sonic games have my favorite videogame music.
You should definitely check out the remixes I used by themselves, I have them linked in the description, they're from a channel called longestsoloever and he made a whole album of classic Sonic remixes and they're all fantastic.
My Tracklist:
1: Pop is Dead
2: "Yeah" Queen Cover (Special Made for this reimagined version)
3: Like Spinning Plates (Twice. First reversed, then normal)
4: Feral
5: The entirety of the Suspiria soundtrack, but sped up to a degree where it's 9:12 seconds long (9:12 -> 9/12, as in the day the Creep single was released (for Americans, that is.))
6: Hunting Bears
7: I Will (Old Version)
8: Thinking About You
9: True Love Waits
10: Pulk/Pull Revolving Doors
i really liked that edit you did going from the left ear to the right ear in between songs. it adds a lot to the atmosphere while listening to music. another great video by pooka de peeka
Loved this video!! Your stuff never disappoints.
Here's my HTTT tracklisting. Split it up into two sides like a record.
SIDE ONE - 25:12
1. 2 + 2 = 5
2. Backdrifts
3. Sail To The Moon
4. Myxomatosis
5. Go To Sleep
6. A Punch Up at a Wedding
SIDE TWO - 21:58
1. There, There
2. Sit Down. Stand Up
3. The Gloaming
4. Scatterbrain
5. I Will (album version)
6. A Wolf At The Door
TOTAL RUNTIME - 47:10
personally, i'm not that good at alternate album sequencing, but here's how my version would go:
1. 2+2=5
2. the gloaming
3. paperbag writer
4. backdrifts
5. go to sleep
6. myxomatosis
7. there, there
8. i will
9. sail to the moon
10. sit down, stand up
11. scatterbrain
12. a wolf at the door
also side comment, i really love how your version ends and begins with 2 versions of "i will", kinda reminds me more of how system of a down did the same concept, beginning and ending their double album with two versions of "soldier side"
this seems pretty interesting. I'll probably check it out.
where it ends and it begins
I did my own version of an alternate HTTT tracklist a few months because I liked some of the ideas and flow of the "WASTE" tracklist, but other parts were an issue for me, so I restructured it slightly and added one song, while trying to keep it more "official" rather than one that changes things just for the sake of it. Here's my alternate take:
1) 2+2=5 (perfect opener, maybe my favourite radiohead song, too)
2) Myxomatosis
3) I Will (I kept this because it's more important to the album, transition to Punchup should be removed in this version)
4) There There
5) The Gloaming
6) Sail To The Moon (With the same transition into Sit Down. Stand Up you had in your video as it flows really well)
7) Sit Down. Stand Up
8) Go to Sleep
9) Where I End and You Begin
10) Scatterbrain
11) A Wolf at the Door

Watching pookapeeka for family movie night 😢
My list:
1. You
2. Just
3. Lost Like This - Oingo Boingo
4. The Game - Disturbed
A pretty good track list I made.
1. 2 + 2 = 5
2. Sit Down Stand Up
3. Go To Sleep
I swapped out Sail To The Moon because I don't really feel like it follows up SDSU's energy, Go To Sleep works a little better I feel. These three songs are a chaotic opening to the album that set the mood well while flowing great.
4. A Punch Up at a Wedding
this song works well to kinda carry on some of that energy, but also as a way to set up the next few.
5. Sail to the Moon
6. Where I End and You Begin
7. I Will
SttM and WIEaYB both are electronic/piano focused tracks that work well to follow Punch Up. WIEaYB works very well to create a sort of Karma Police affect by leading into I Will. The pure chaos of WIEaYB works well to contrast the focused clarity of I Will.
8. Gagging Order
Gagging Order helps to keep the mood steady after the chaotic twist of WIEaYB into I Will, and keeps the themes, and minimalist vibe from I Will going. The fade out at the end of I Will also doesn't really harm Gagging Order too much in the grander flow of things.
9. Scatterbrain
10. There There
Scatterbrain helps to build up the tension, and the layers of instrumentation, building up into There There, which acts as a major explosion, propelling us into the last few songs. I also feel that putting Scatterbrain here gives it more room to really sink in. My biggest gripe with the original order is that Scatterbrain gets sandwiched between two faster paced, and more hyped songs, thus not giving this slow somber love song room to express itself on the album.
11. Myxomatosis
this song keeps everything in motion, and works as the perfect follow up to There There's explosion
12. Backdrifts
13. The Gloaming
Backdrifts works pretty well after Myxo, and works extremely well going into The Gloaming.
14. Fog
15. A Wolf At the Door
It is a real shame Fog never made it on an album as it works as the perfect penultimate song. I use the Amnesiac B Side version of the song, but I'd imagine a new rendition would have been recorded if this was the order they had went with. A Wolf At the Door works way too well as the final song.
Overall, my goal for this track listing was mainly to make something that felt like an odyssey into the mind of an insane person, and to keep the disjointed, chaotic feel of the original while improving the flow. I think I did a decent job, but there are prob better ones out there. This one just works for me.
We Suck Young Blood was mainly excluded because I couldn't find space for it that actually worked towards the flow of the album.
I hope this wasn't too long.
No you're fine man, I love long discussion-y comments, I really appreciate you taking the time to do this! Especially with adding a little commentary to explain why you ordered the tracks the way you did.
Although I would love to see if you could find a way to incorporate Backdrifts into it somehow.
@@pookapeeka I may try to find a spot for it again. Iteration is the best way to make a good track listing! Maybe could work in place of The Gloaming, idk. I like the song a lot as well, so it's a massive shame that I haven't found a good spot for it yet.
@@pookapeeka A little update: Myxo into Backdrifts into The Gloaming into Fog works scarily well. Will be changing that hopefully permanently towards my track listing. Thanks!
@Goallpeashooters love to see it man, no problem!
Tracklist i came up:
1. 2+2=5
Works way too well as an opener
2. The Gloaming
3. Backdrifts
I figured putting the more glitchy electronic tracks earlier on would make more sense, plus these two transition very well
4. Where I End And You Begin
5. Sit Down Stand Up
These two also go well with eachother and are more the electronic side
6. Sail To The Moon
7. We Suck Young Blood
8. Paperbag Writer
I figured putting the two piano songs together would make sense and Paperbag could carry the eerie vibe from We Suck Young Blood
9. Go To Sleep
10. A Punch Up At A Wedding
11. There, There
These there are fairly energetic tracks so they could go together, plus the transtion from Punch Up isn't that bad as well
12. I Am A Wicked Child
Cooling down a bit
13. Myxomatosis

Classic pookapeeka vid. Yt needs more people with this sense of humor and great content. Anyhow, httt has always been an album I’ve loved and alternate tracklists for it are usually pretty good. I personally wouldn’t remove We Suck Young Blood (I quite like it) but you could make Punchup a b side and remove the Gloaming and potentially scatterbrain (no hate, just isn’t a strong one IMO). Something like that would be good for me. I also love how I Will bookends your version, reminds me of how PF does.

I think this track listing builds up the tension over the course of the shorter run time and creates a narrative of somebody being under the control of a powerful figure that really has no idea what they're doing that really hammers home the meanings of the songs. I think 2 + 2 = 5 is given a slightly new, more optimistic feel as the closer with the narrator breaking free from the ideas that kept them so "tongue tied". This is very subjective, I'm probably wrong, sorry i didn't include Creep or Hunting Bears, this is my opinion.
I like it. Really interesting idea for it to build up like that.
My Tracklist:
1. 2 + 2 = 5
2. Burn the Witch (It was originally written for Hail to the Thief but they couldn't get an orchestra to play it or something, I don't remember the whole story)
3. Sit Down. Stand Up.
4. Go To Sleep
5. There, There
6. Where I End and You Begin
7. The Numbers (I just think it fits the album thematically, the intro I imagine would be low-passed and have some channel switching sound effects added to make it sound like it's on a radio)
8. We Suck Young Blood
9. I Will - Los Angeles Version | Retitled to just I Will
10. Myxomatosis
11. Sail to The Moon
12. Scatterbrain
- As bonus tracks:
13. Gagging Order
14. True Love Waits (this would be adjusted to be in the same key as Gagging Order (or the other way around) so that it flows better)
16. I Will (No Man's Land) | Just the album version
17. Wolf At the Door
I know there what would be considered weird track picks by most people, particularly We Suck Young Blood and the demotion of Wolf At the Door to a bonus track, and for Wolf At the Door I kind of agree, I just think Scatterbrain works as a nice closing song. Now for the rips off of AMSP I just think they add a nice touch to the album, particularly Burn the Witch.
Idk, this is just what came to mind for me.
Actually it started being written in the middle of the Kid A sessions, It was further developed for Thief and was attempted to be officially recorded for it and In Rainbows before it was finished for Shaped Pool, Hope that clears thing up
wake up babe pookapeeka just posted
Honestly the way I have been listening to Hail to the Thief is to listen to tracks 1-9 and then Wolf at the Door. There, There to me feels very climatic especially with the last minute, so I think just wrapping up the album shortly after makes for a nice and concise listening experience. I know that in this processes you do lose Myxomatosis which is a fan favorite. Maybe swapping We Suck Young Blood for Myxomatosis would work too. But idk, the album in of itself is good as is, just a little long. But it is fun to mess around to see what works and what doesn't.
About your "alternate title" for the W.A.S.T.E. variant, Hail to the Thief itself is already subtitled "The Gloaming" in the album's booklet, the full title being "Hail to the Thief, (or, The Gloaming.)" or just simply "Hail to the Thief. (The Gloaming.)" by others. Just wanted to point that little something up.
This is like Radiohead fan’s version of reorganizing The Beatle’s white album
As a fan of both, you're totally right
The White Album has no filler and the track order is completely perfect, I don’t care what anybody says
This is honestly great, I would really love to hear your version with all your edits. Maybe something like google drive would work or wevideo

My idea for this listing is to hold more of the thematic of the album. The first half is all the paranoia, anger, and disbelief of what could be antagonising us, the middle transition is the limbo, the confusion, the unsettlement of the situation we're in. And the end is the acceptance, peace, and surrender to the devil's way.
Everytime I hear Sit Down Stand Up I always think it's such a good opener for an album, it does the same as 2+2=5, but with more tension and gives more definition to "Hail to the Thief".
To me, Where I End and You Begin just seems so perfect right after SDSU, the drumming feels like the continuation of SDSU, and it still keeps the tension from SDSU.
2+2=5 amplifies this tension, and Myxomatosis explodes the entire thing.
There, There becomes the assurance and a schadenfreude to lead the person to giving in, and hailing to the thief.
I personally don't like Backdrifts, WSYB, Gloaming. And I think the album can go without the three, but if they have to, they'd have to be in the middle, the limbo and uncomfortable situation of being persuaded by a thieving higher figure to submission and surrender.
Punch Up at a Wedding is the sad acceptance,
leading to the "lullaby" of Go To Sleep, and the four next songs to accompany it.
Sail to the Moon is just perfect ending honestly, just drifting away from how ridiculous it is to even care about the unchangeable, a true surrender - peace.

Would HTTT be a better album listed this way?
I love all these songs but the album as a whole feels disjointed. Perhaps listing them this way helps to capture the multiple overlapping themes that exude out of the album whilst retaining an aesthetically coherent structure to the track listing. Personally, this album personifies two interlinked yet opposing themes, that of warming love and cold austeire mechanical political force. This for me creates an oxymoron juxtaposition of two chained feelings off put by eachother that subtly makes this album so heart wrenching.
The idea of this listing would be to introduce the motif of the album's political anguish which essentially mirrors the authorial attitude of Orwells 1984. Musically, this was a great song to start the album and tell the listener everything it is about. Sit down stand up continues to show us the cold and mechanical force of political power Yorke confronts. The following 4 songs begin to introduce a sense of personality and self pity. This refocuses our attention to the human, the self, an integral component in the equation of cold political force with human warmth that defines this album. These four songs are personal and angsty, sustaining a theme of anger but also foregrounds contemplation.
The gloaming sees a more haunting sense emerge, one that is calmer but more cautious. Eerily it transforms the attitude of the album's angst and teenage like despair into something grander and perhaps more related to its politicalized nature. In essence its maturity.
Sail to the moon and I will are beautiful songs to keep the listener engaged and heart with the music. It is also the sign of maturity that can penultimately entangle the emotional self with the coldness of the outside world. I will is the perfect personification of such given it's parallelism and infusion of Yorkes fear for his newborn baby entering this world and the world where people in a bunker were attacked during the second gulf War.
By this point the main themes of the album are established, the journey is clear. That of angst and concern for our usual trivial lives towards a matured fear of those cold political forces we ignore foreshadowed by the first track.
We suck young blood, although not my favourite track, can importantly reflect the tone of these now firmly established themes of humanistic warmth and systematic coldness with its dissonance and clashing sounds.
Wolf at the door is the ultimate realisation of one's fragility to their social systems and political structures. It portrays that moment Winston and Julia are caught by the Thought police like a deer in headlights. The sense of impending doom that signifies the fear we've set up in the album is of coming.
Genuinely a passionate album for me! Reminds of me university tbh 😆 pls give me your though

9. Myxomatosis
10. A Wolf At the Door
On a side note: is this the most horribly capitalised/punctuated album of all time? I was getting weird OCD impulses when typing up those titles. Why is the 'At' capitalised in 'A Wolf...' but not in 'A Punch Up...'? Why does 'Sit Down...' have a full stop in it? What qualifies the 'To' in 'Go To Sleep' to be capitalised? Why isn't 'A Punch Up...' just called 'Punch Up' (I'll let 'A Wolf...' go)? And don't even get me started on those parenthesised titles...
I do enjoy the comma in 'There, There' though, so points for that one
I love Punchup at a Wedding

also the punch up hate is crazy
Wow it’s weird how so many people, including me way before watching this video and all the fan tracklists, all have their opinions on how the album should be restructured and want to hypothesise on how it could be improved by doing so. It’s very specific to this album, it’s not like I think about what ok computer or kid a would sound like with a different tracklist, I’ve never even considered it, yet I think so hard about the tracklist of hail to thief. Strange.
Also punchup at a wedding is my favourite Radiohead song. Just thought you should know.

Having "We suck young blood" as one my of my favourites, makes it really painful to watch the video and read the comments
I phocking love those claps and i will(😅) never be ashamed of it
Btw i've never liked "i will", sorry not sorry
And i really dig "the gloaming", i just like the way this song starts pretty roughly (the damned noise on the beginning) but then becomes sweeter and sweeter😊 and all those vocal melodies man
God you remind me i haven't listened to RH and this particular album (i consider it as my favourite one) for a while, i just recall how much i adore this one😌
