philip is one of the most umderrated drummers out there. his ability to keep time with complicated patterns and like you mentioned his tasteful drumming is so good
I was 20 when this came out. I'd become a fan from The Bends as my brother and I watched MTV in the 90s. I was shocked at first listen, but listened to it hundreds of times the month after it came out. This song is still my number 1. Radiohead fans have been invited on a long journey and we have discovered more than the average music listener, more than any of us expected.
@@munkymunk Pretty similar to me there dude. I first started listening to them from the Bends. They were pretty much one band up until Kid A and then a totally different band after Kid A, I wasn't sure if I'd like them anymore. Now I'm like thank god they did what they did.
@@GJ-ol5ev like being at the beach before a huge storm ,the waves are stronger and the clouds turned dark gray but you can't help but feel tranquility of nature
Was thinking that listening the other day, Halloween night in gran canaria, the ghouls passing by, the beauty of this song, so joyfully depressing , so like life itself
One of my favorite songs by them, but hearing it live is absolutely magistral. I don't even have more words to describe it... And today, Happy Birthday Jonny! :)
I simply can't understand how it is possible to play this piece. This is of an outsatnding complexity, resulting in something like a totally new idea of truth and harmony!
It's like reading a book over different times and years. You always get something new out of it and it still brings tears to my eyes, every time. There is so much sadness, love, passion and beauty in that song. It will forever stay one of my favourites. ❤️
I’ve swam with dark Angels and they couldn’t handle me so I danced with the Devil instead great times listening to these rhymes no reason but my unconditional treason and the realisation of a overcooked overlooked dead global nation!!!!!! YOUR WELCOME
I believe this song is in 4/4, it just sounds like an odd meter because it’s syncopated. Despite playing drums for 10 years I could never get this one down as much as I tried to play along.
after listening to them for 25 years, I think I can finally say this is my favorite Radiohead song.... Usually, I think they're brilliant but they can creep me out so i have to be in a certain type of headspace, but this just *transports* me to somewhere mystic and comforting
There's something so ethereal and yet suffocating about this song... like drowning in the river, crossing the Styx, and being dragged by your feet by angels... Nothing to fear, nothing to doubt...
Sending this song out to the other side, RIP Jay. I know you and I would've woken up to this song together this morning, so happy to live the day, so excited for our future. Until I see you on the other side my love, I'll play this on repeat. 🧡🧡🧡
If you know how complex the song is, it's fascinating to watch them focus on playing it right. Kinda like watching them play Videotape with the actual rhythm of the song hidden until it's nearly over.
The first time I saw Radiohead (Stephen Malkmus & the Jicks opened) and this song was #2 or #3 in their set... I involuntarily started crying - it was absolutely brilliant. I'll never forget it. This is one of my top #10 favorite songs in life.
I've listened to this song over a million times, but there's something specific about this live version that gives me CRAZY musical frission! I'm always entranced by this version! :D
Listening to this on repeat, it would play a million times in 9.3796739929525692701599614672852 years. So, that statement is theoretically possible, though practically not.
He seemed more focused back in the day. But to be fair, his voice was also 20 years younger than it is now. But what a sound in this performance huh?! Amazing!!
I remember hearing/watching this song on mtv the night before I left for the army at 17 years old. Seemed to sum up exactly how I felt, hear i am 20 years later and it still does even though I'm a different person now.
One of the best songs ever in music history! Whenever I hear this song, I question my existence as a Human...and sometimes I feel prepared to leave for another dimension in peace.
This entire performance is just perfection 👌🏽 EDIT: Glad to see that my first ever comment to get this many likes is on a Radiohead song. Good to know there are many beautiful souls in this world. Stay safe everyone ❤️
This is the song that got me into Radiohead, and what a lucky thing it was when I dove into their discography, these men and their musical talents far and above transcend the norm and consistently put out beautiful, resonant work and I hope they continue to do so for years to come
This is the most deconstructed and analysed song on YT for a reason, it’s complexity and composition never cease to amaze me 🤔 so sad yet uplifting, the syncopation is harmonious and simple 👍 this is the only band on this planet capable of writing something as epic and beautiful 😉 long live Radiohead
@@JanoDo A metaphor for what? It's a meaningless phrase like "that cold water was very three-hundred-and-12, also tree". It's the kind of pretentious waffle that people who don't understand music say.
I REMEBER WATCHING THIS CONCERT FOR THE FIRST TIME, AT THE AGE OF 13, AND NEVER FADE AWAY FROM MY MEMORY. IT WAS AN ABSOLUTELY INSANE EXPERIENCE! I HOPE THEY UPLOAD ALL THE SETLIST!
Nice to see this officially posted, if you owned the Collectors Edition of Amnesiac from 2001 this was on Disc 2 along with the best version of Spinning Plates (I hope thats coming next) ** This version is already on UA-cam, would be great to see video footage but it seems like that didn't happen only recorded audio.
@@Eduardocard100 I was making a edit to my comment, the version of Like Spinning Plates I mentioned is the Live version like this song and it's on UA-cam just search the title with live at the end and it's on the official channel.
Only Radiohead can take me to places I've never known existed or even attempted to dream about, filling in the missing pieces of my journey in this world.
I hated radiohead untill i heard this song for the first time...this version in particular. Now i´m grateful. Because of them i got to know aphex twin and squarepusher...thanks radiohead forever. You open my closed mind
It puts me in a sort of spiritual fetal position. Comforting! Surrounding myself in the beautiful melancholic sounds and southing lyrics. beautiful! One of there best songs in my opinion.
Notification from Radiohead! Here asap.. Absolutely perfect, sublime version , I love the feel of Pyramid song so much 💕 Thom has caught the collective consciousness with all his lyrics like nobody else can. 💜🐱♏🏴🌌
I jumped in the river and what did I see? Black-eyed angels swam with me A moon full of stars and astral cars And all the figures I used to see All my lovers were there with me All my past and futures And we all went to heaven in a little row boat There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt I jumped into the river Black-eyed angels swam with me A moon full of stars and astral cars And all the figures I used to see All my lovers were there with me All my past and futures And we all went to heaven in a little row boat There was nothing to fear and nothing to doubt
Love Phil’s drumming in this tune, so tasteful never overplays but gives it such a nice push/pull loose but groovy vibe, very very cool
who?
Pulk/Pull loose but groovy vibe

@@conorkmartshoppingexperien2739 lol it's an old radiohead joke that the other members don't know who phil is
People in 2001: wtf? This sounds nothing like Radiohead.
People in 2021: this is incredible, this is why we love Radiohead
"Are you guys going to release creep 2 or what?"
We were well prepped after Kid A tbf

So funny how that works. Probably in my top 3 Radiohead songs ever too.
The most hauntingly comforting song in existence
So you’re haunted by how comforting this song is(?)

@@riz9885 agreed
Saw them once and when this song started me and my mate looked at each other, eyes wide open, I was so overwhelmed I just started crying
It’s amazing live isnt it? It always brought tears to my eyes. They are on another level
Every. Time.
Same happened to me, but with How To Disappear. From the first chord I was crying
I'm welling up typing this! Not the first time, it's that moving.
its weird how things happen out of nowhere and then the other second something glamorous happens
Your music has changed and even saved many people’s lives.
As someone who was suicidal many years ago, I can confirm that Radiohead helped me move past that phase of my life.
Probably caused suicides too. 😅
@@damienx0x as bad as it sounds, you're probably right.
@@damienx0x Bullshit cliché.
+1
This is one of the best songs ever written. Hauntingly beautiful.
So you're saying that you're haunted by how beautiful the song is?.. You don't mean 'beautiful in a haunted way' for instance?
@@GJ-ol5ev Haha I saw you've said the same in another comment. I mean it's a beautiful song as well as haunting in terms of its melody and vibe.
@@tzian7051 Yeah fair, I totally agree with that,
Well put and wholeheartedly agree 👌🏼
so true
One of my favorite songs by them, but hearing it live is absolutely magistral. I don't even have more words to describe it... And today, Happy Birthday Jonny! :)
This song will never cease to amaze me.
It's like you jump into the river yourself when you listen to it
This song gives me goosebumps every time I hear it. It cuts to my soul!
I simply can't understand how it is possible to play this piece.
This is of an outsatnding complexity, resulting in something like a totally new idea of truth and harmony!
I jumped in the river and what did I see?
Black-eyed angels swam with me.

Perfectly stated.
indeed, the songs never get old
I’ve swam with dark Angels and they couldn’t handle me so I danced with the Devil instead great times listening to these rhymes no reason but my unconditional treason and the realisation of a overcooked overlooked dead global nation!!!!!!
YOUR WELCOME
Yep. Tears, every time.
I can’t praise Selway’s drumming on this enough.... absolutely perfect 👌
I wish they cut to him when he comes in with that subtle jazzy fill...perfection
I believe this song is in 4/4, it just sounds like an odd meter because it’s syncopated. Despite playing drums for 10 years I could never get this one down as much as I tried to play along.

@@BearFattfilmskill issue
Indeed one of the best songs ever written ❤
💜 my favorite rendition of this song 💜 happy birthday Jonny!
“There was nothing to fear, nothing to doubt”.
I’ve always found these lyrics touching and profound. I don’t know why.
Same here
Because they are
It's what happens when we're present.
Because you’re not like other teenagers.
It’s because he’s obviously lying to himself
after listening to them for 25 years, I think I can finally say this is my favorite Radiohead song.... Usually, I think they're brilliant but they can creep me out so i have to be in a certain type of headspace, but this just *transports* me to somewhere mystic and comforting
Sublime. Perfection. Painfully beautiful. And who the f… is chopping onions??
Radiohead я вас обожаю! Вы вдохновили меня в юности и продолжаете вдохновлять до сих пор. Спасибо.
Шляпа
👋🏻
Wonderfully moving.
The presentation was in 2001, but it seems to have happened the day before yesterday. Radiohead spanning the decades. ABRAÇOS DO BRASIL.
Outro brasileiro.
20 años y esta canción aun me teletransporta a otra dimisión
There's something so ethereal and yet suffocating about this song... like drowning in the river, crossing the Styx, and being dragged by your feet by angels... Nothing to fear, nothing to doubt...
I usually hate people putting descriptions of songs youtube but I´d say you nailed it.

we doesnt really change
I've always thought of this to be some haunted wedding march..just lovely!!!
I love this song, it brings me a lot of peace and thinking about things with that song makes me feel good
Probably my favourite Radiohead concert.
La estaba esperando cabeza de radio.
Radiohead es y será la más grande banda de todos los tiempos .
I still think it's about Jeff Buckley.
Funny you should say that cos I was randomly just thinking about Jeff Buckley...
Huh interesting thought, i could see that
I can't belive that this is live. So clean...
The string arrangements in the original recording are truly epic!
The gorgeous Radiohead track 'Pyramid Song' showed up on the episode of the Peaky Blinders
Melhor versão de pyramid song. Viagem sonora✌🏻
Pyramid Song definitely is the Radiohead masterpiece!
No debate!
i don't know many bands that sound live as good as they do on the album,greetings from germany
I want to go to heaven in a little row boat.
I would like everyone at my funeral to dress like this song.

Pyramid song and how to dissappear completely are my favourite radiohead songs.. So beautiful.....
I will go to my grave unable to find the beat of this song until the drums come in.
Timeless. This song help me get through a tuff time in 06. Still gives me goosebumps in 21. Thank you radiohead
