It’s funny how nobody ever seems to talk about what this song is actually about: what we’re told to strive for and the life we’re shown as an ideal will ultimately solve nothing because it’s completely superficial. The narrator has achieved everything he was supposed to, and has only destroyed himself in the process and found no peace at all. The American Dream, if you want to look at it that way, is a lie. Like the entire album, it’s an attack on modern soulless neoliberal capitalism; it’s not just a sad song.
This is how I perceived it, sad
Peace isnt something you "achieve".... but I agree with the antipolitical stance
Squidward: We do this for 40yrs then we die.
But thanks to capitalism we have this amazing music, youtube to listen it through, a smartphone or any other device and the internet.

Yep sadly...
A heart that's full up like a landfill
A job that slowly kills you
Bruises that won't heal
You look so tired, unhappy
Bring down the government
They don't, they don't speak for us
I'll take a quiet life
A handshake of carbon monoxide
And no alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
Silent, silent
This is my final fit
My final bellyache with
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises
No alarms and no surprises, please
Such a pretty house
And such a pretty garden
No alarms and no surprises (get me out of here)
No alarms and no surprises (get me out of here)
No alarms and no surprises, please (get me out of here)

this song sounds like despair, no hope left just acceptance. it feels like what it feels like to be absoloutly crushed, tears streaming down your face but somehow everything is ok
This!!!!
It definitely brings up emotions of sadness and despair and your life being crushed . I always thought it’s about the realization that these socially accepted conforming norms of what we see as having a happy life are merely going to make you more miserable and dull and end up drowning you slowly till your time’s up . If I’d put it very direct , a life lived without surprises is like slow suicide but if you seek further than these norms you get curious about what really matters in your life and this brings you true happiness .

Doesn't this song portray a suicidal thought? He is thinking of ending it all without flashy appearance.
I’ll edit the very end of your awesome comment…”somehow everything is going to be okay” 🤖
This song was played on my son’s friend funerals two days ago. Hé was 17 and died in a car accident. It was his favorite song. I will always remember him while listening to this beautiful song.
😢😢 may his soul rest in the peace 🕊️ of Christ! May your son remember his friend and the many things they did together. Hold your son tight and love him even harder! Our young are truly dying too soon.
@@keybailey47 May his soul rest in peace.... ✝️🕊️
I'm sorry..
Damn, I’m sorry wish the family best
Sorry to hear that, man...
As a non native English speaker i never care to understand the lyrics but whenever it’s on display i cry. Love this song
Basically just says that the life we’re sold isn’t worth it. “A job that slowly kills you, bruises that won’t heal”
“I’ll take a quiet life, a handshake of carbon monoxide”
Basically a quiet slow life is better than killing yourself for money
You don't understand the song you must feel it
I found a guy in the metro of Paris listening this song on his headphones so high that i could hear it too. Was a good travel but he looked very sad :(
sorry for my english
Perhaps you should offer him a cup of coffee :((
Fairy Nekoko Un français ! Radiohead est un groupe très mélencolique...Ce mec à du se faire larguer par sa copine ou quelque chose dans le genre et écouter cette chanson pour lui peut être une sorte d'exutoire
Fairy Nekoko You should have asked him why he was so sad.
Fairy Nekoko aw you could of talked to him, have a conversation! Thanks for sharing
The song might be depressive but the instrumental behind is like giving you a pat on the shoulders saying "Hey, Everything is going to be fine"
I always interpreted the music as a lullaby. The song to coax you into eternal sleep, i.e. death.
Nice. Agreed.
It's the magic of the minor fourth chord.
I always interpreted it as the peace you get after accepting what you will do with your life

It's strange how all these songs with a "sad" meaning to it are always in a major key, it's like a sweet depression or a nice cry... I find it yes strange, but also beautiful.
Like Creep, this song ends in a minor plagal cadence, just a tiny bit of tension
@@jayvee4321 Thanks for the specification
@@jayvee4321 My favorite cadence of all. So somber, bittersweet and heartbreaking.
@@agaveboy I first discovered that cadence in a very sad ballad that's full of synths. It's somehow somber and magical at the same time.

I love how this video does so much with so little visuals. Just his expression and the reflections on the glass tell you so much, especially the lyrics scrolling by facing Thom. And then of course the water. He’s trapped in some kind of bizarre machine, routinely forced to perform this task of singing and then holding his breath, the purpose of which eludes us. Really eerie.
Yeah radiohead so look you happy i don't care i think about you baby he tonight.....????🌙

@@redskies4530 Robert Nix commented on my video. Great guy
Radiohead is the best!!! But you have to listen to "Live Not Survive" by SLT ... right away! You are missing out !!!
the intro gives me chills, the choruses give me chills, the instrumental break gives me chills, the "such a pretty house..." part gives me chills, and the outro gives me chills
are you seeing a pattern here?
This song holds so many memories for me but I always seem to come back to it when I get sad. The lyrics are so relatable; trying to work so hard to achieve something/ be great at something superficial that in the end leaves you feeling empty and exhausted.
Commenting this down so whenever someone likes, I can remember this song

Congrats
Poor guy's been reminded is this 139 times in 2 weeks.
This song, to me, sounds like what sadness feels like. Not necessarily depression, but more melancholy. It’s like the feeling of mild gloom that hangs over everyone from time to time put into music.
It’s literally loneliness made into a song.
holy shit its the dog from weezer
its kinda nostalgic as well
It’s sounds creepy, sad, depressing, and sleepy all at the same time.
dog from raditude i have seen you multiple times i am your biggest fan weezer and radiohead i love you
This song was played at my mums funeral in 2011 it was her and my dads favourite song. My dad also passed and this song played at his funeral. Rip to the both of them and I’ll always be internally grateful for the music they played to me like this.
Sorry to hear that
Beautiful taste in music ✊🏾
Bless
radiohead killed the televised revolution
Sorry for your loss
When I first heard the lyrics properly, I related it with my life a little. Even when it probably doesn’t mean what I imagined it to. I thought that he was describing how content in the world he is and happy when the garden is beautiful. Then the “no alarms and no surprises” I interpreted it as a shout/cry out at the horrible surprise the world dumps on you around the corner to remind you that the world isn’t so beautiful as your eyes perceived it.
More than 20 years later, and still feels fresh. I think Radiohead will be listened in 100 years from now.
This songs makes me feel like i can finally stop pretending like everything is fine

This song still hits different 15 yrs later
Absolutely flawless! 🌟 Pure joy to the ears! 🎉
This song never fails to make me cry like a kid. Especially at the part " no alarms and no suprises please". I've felt like my whole life as been just suprises and changes thrown at me. From my mother leaving me and my family all of a sudden, to my father suddenly neglecting us and ignoring my existence and needing to throw my childhood away for my siblings , to suddenly my father leaving us in another country on our own with my grandmother. To my mother suddenly wanted custody of us, our education ruined, getting so stressed about taking care of my family to the point that I got gastritis and anxiety.. its all been surpises, sudden changes that I had to force myself to adapt to.. I'm so tired, I just want to live a normal teenage life, worry about my exams and education instead of worrying about whether I'll survive or not. Even my friends who I thought will be by my side no matter what are giving up on me, I just feel like everyone gave up on me.. my parents, my family, my friends.. everyone.. I feel so alone.. I tried my best, I did my best to help everyone around me, I tried my best to be a good older sibling, a good friend, a good kid, a good student, a good person.. but everything just feels like it went to waste. I did my best.. yet everyone still gave up on me, I really tried my best.. but not even one person saw how much I'm struggling, and now I gave up on myself too, I can't bring myself to even care about my basic needs anymore:) I couldn't care less anymore. I just want things to be normal. I don't want any more suprises and changes,, I want a normal life
EDIT: hello! I've come back and I just wanted to say thank you to every single person who gave me so much love and comfort in the replies. I promise when I say this that reading all that made me feel so loved and cared for, and even tho things aren't looking too good for me.. I for once in my life I feel like I'm not alone and can finally go through this.The kindness of strangers really is something so amazing! it reminded me that there's still so many truly amazing and kind people in this world!.
You all saved my life, thanks to your kind and loving words, I truly feel like I'm not alone.
( P.S I've made it a habit to read through the comments every day)
Keep trying bro keep it up
I know this hurts a lot... But you Will be okay
Maybe It take a lot of time, but don't give Up on you... You are worthy, you are loved and you are important.
I don't even know you, but I'm proud of you 💜
@@luceritocat203 thank you so much, u don't know how much this means to me.. thank you for being proud of me, and I hope you know that your also loved, worthy and important too! I hope your always happy
@@synchro9471 thank you, I'll try my best to do so
It will get better, please don’t give up on yourself, you’ve made it this far! Please don’t let your past determine your future, proud of you man
I remember listening to this usually during sad times.
Yes, thats all i remember when listening to this.
Someone said that Thom has Hydrophobia from an accident that happened when he was younger. So to see him do this and fight his fear is groundbreaking. It also took them a lot of attempts to do this as well, and when he gets a gasp of air after being submerged in water, you can see him smile for a little bit as a sign of relief.
This song sounds so sad yet comforting it feels like someone is patting you on your shoulder and saying everything is going to be ok
isso que eu gosto mesmo mano
Yeah, all depends on context and personal outlook. For me, it's just expressing how blissful it would be to never have to worry again... by simply no longer being around.
@GiveMeThatLetter it is so depressingly carthatic to know that a singular solution to all of our issues is so commonly shared...yet choosing to indugle in that communion leaves us with nothing to share. The darkest bond.
I am trying to weigh the price for this peace. But does the cost even matter if I'm not there to pay it?
The song does have a bittersweet vibe going on
@GiveMeThatLetter it would be peacefull. Most of us have this feeling sometimes. Everything is overwhelming and there are way to many people that tries to take advance of you. Trying to cut lines. All the noise you know it.
But there is one reason to stay. We need you. The rest of us feeling alone. We have to try to make it better. Else it will never happen.
I dont know you. But I need to know you are out there.
this song's been playing in my head on repeat lately. it's getting awfully hard to keep my head up. on the bright side, I know life can bring better days. I just don't feel so good. that's all.
I recommend listening to Miss Me by The Impures if you're looking for new music cx I think you might like it or Quiet SOul by The Impures is good too cx
You just forgot to eat your daily government mandated microplastics bro
Hey I hope everything gets better.
I wish the best for you.
Hope you’re doing better now. Just keep trucking on and you’ll reach the good times.

When i left my friends apartment around 3:11AM something just told me to go to the rooftop and said "you wouldn't wanna miss it" and when i went to the rooftop this song played on my earphones, when i saw the full moon and the cities lights everything felt calming, it's so quiet. It's like i was in a dream were all the sounds around me were absent and the only sound that was present was this song.
it just felt like i was being hugged by the wind. I stayed on the rooftop while the full moon slowly faded away.

He didn't nearly die at all - he had an emergency drain that he could activate at any time. Took many takes to get the one in the video, but the song and frame rate were sped up (x2) during the submerged part and in playback this was slowed back down to keep Tom's lip movements in sync with the song

My parents would play this song to me as a baby on long car rides. I've always associated it with sleep and comfort, yet I hear the melancholy overtone listening today. I'm left with a strange feeling. Not joy, not sadness; not even nostalgia. I could only describe it as raw emotion. This song simply makes me want to feel my feelings, and I think that's pretty special.
It's exactly this feeling
same, you just feel brave enough to feel everything
So, did you bring down the government?
well said❤
Then esoteric/surreal
I'm listening to Radiohead right now, because my school project (scrapbook) has an instruction about my telos (purpose in life). After seeing it. My mind went blank, and now I want to at least release my emotions which I held back for a long time.
this song gets me every time man
I love how his smile at the end is completely genuine because if you watch behind the scenes clips of making this video you see how incredibly frustrated he was in how many attempts it took to hold his breath that long, so when he finally got it he couldn’t help but smile

Radiohead'in yeri ayrı bende
I was a freshman in college when this album came out. One random night, i woke up around 3am, hungry. For some reason, there was deli turkey meat in my little dorm room fridge. Also cheese and bread. I made a sandwich and ate it while this song played. It was a glorious 3 minutes and a turkey sandwich I will never forget. Love this album so much.
That must be nice nostalgia is such a great feeling for me it is hearing birds smelling the evening air it was a an orchestra of birds
Fascinating
it sounds better and more touching than all the fictional comments about deceased relatives who loved a certain song.
To anyone reading this, Jesus Christ Loves you so much that HE died for you all to save you all from eternal death and suffering. And HES calling you all to a relationship with HIM. All you need to do is to Believe in HIM with all of your Heart that HE died for all of youre sins meaning (past,present,future sins) and believe that HE rose again on the Third Day then you will be saved. Does that mean that i can now do anything i want, no. When you are now saved in Jesus Christ, you are now renewed in HIM meaning your old self (sins, darkness, lusts) are all gone For Jesus Christ has now renewed you and when you are now saved, you start a relationship with HIM, so that you may know HIM more and know about HIS words and commands which are in the BIBLE and aswell most importantly you can apply GODS words into your Life and Make GODS words your lamp to your feet and to your path and your guidance on How to Live life. And some might say i need to be clean (sinless) to come to Jesus Christ but thats not the Case, Because GOD Himself when you come to HIM will transform you and renew you, but does that mean that i will not sin again?, no but thats why you need to have full total Faith in GOD so that you will not sin against HIM and you will be all set. GODBLESS you all, May GODS Grace and Peace and Love which is Powerful be with you all❤.

Radiohead’s music is like lullaby’s for adults.
A permanent lullaby
like this metaphor!
I would like to invite you to look up the plural form of words in the English language
@@Morpheah What the fuck was wrong with my grammar, or spelling?

This somg holds emptiness and way to fulfil it. In a stream, you get both one by one. But Curiosity always remains same to Listen again.
That intro part was stuck in my head all day
"Radiohead song that sounds like a lullaby" nailed the search
It is a lullaby. I always played it when I'm going to sleep :D
It's a song based on "What a wonderful world" and "Sunday Morning" (I think)
I searched it and it actually brought it up haha
It is a lullaby, just for people that are going to sleep, forever.
It’s a doped up lullaby
watching it on 1 May 2024....
This song illustrates the face of a depression-being drown by your thoughts. We all know that mental health can not be seen but this song, shows the mental deterioration of a person.

@@juanytorres6007 oh yes it is
Thank you
They also scroll infront of his face and you can see the reflection so its backwards
Nice
I think everyone knows this, but I think it'll be a nice reminder:
The No Surprises video was made by speeding up the song in a fast pace while Thom is actually in there, holding his breath until the very short 3rd verse happens. As you can tell, Thom fucking hated it, taking many attempts to do it, swearing his brains out when he fails. There's a reason why he was smiling at the end. You can see it in the Radiohead documentary, 'Meeting People Is Easy.'
THANK YOU. They do an excellent job editing the video to not make the 'speeding up' obvious while Thom is holding his breath.
it wasn't speeded up just did it in real time what you see is what you get .
@@hamishbenn5718 false. it is definitely sped up, as you can see in the documentary
Bruh I was holding my breath alongside the video when I read this, almost passed out
Yo nice pfp :o
Also Thom has a good fucking breath
Watched some clip on Instagram where this music was used in ending clip of " bridge to terebithia" ......I echoed in my mind whole day and next day I searched around 1000 reels to find that song ...at last founded...
This song never gets old❤
In case you couldn’t tell by the lyrics “A handshake of carbon monoxide, with no alarms and no surprises”, it’s about a depressed man sitting in his car in a garage with the engine on and falling asleep, suffocating in his sleep from the engine fumes
I see people still have good taste in music
I thought this was about a guy wishing to move out and have a peaceful life... Holy shit
my iq is 2 ...And wanting to back out last second! “Get me out of here!” background vocals at the end. But “No alarms and no surprises” continues, as it’s too late...
@@neszero Don't beat yourself up, it's a good observation
It’s open for interpretation, nothing is definitive
This song, in my opinion, sounds like a feeling of emptiness after losing someone / something, missing something
im always missing something even if there was nothing
I agree like don’t wake me up I don’t want to sit through this pain
That's precisely it: the feeling of emptiness after losing something, but that something is yourself. It's the ennui of forcing yourself into a role that everyone tells you you should fit but you don't.
can you help me
this song makes no sense beacause how is he singing under he water
crazy how a music video can exactly portray how life makes me feel
A song that never fails to make me tear up
For those wondering, Thom held his breath for 56 seconds
Aaron Hyde I was wondering!
It's low camera
If you watch the behind the scenes footage it’s actually slowed down so he only holds his breath IRL for about ten seconds
You can clearly tell the footage is slowed. Probably held it for about 25 seconds.
Congratulations, you lost your 56 seconds in your life
An interesting fact: Thom Yorke is afraid of water since childhood (he almost drowned in the river), but here we see him holding his breath, isn't he a unique person?)
i think behind the scenes they decided to speed up the song for the water part so then thom yorke wouldnt drown
@@menapinglmao I think so too, I hardly did without it
русского по скобке сразу видно
You can see his lips move in slow motion. Meaning it was recorded at a higher speed.
Well in this video he even wasn't under water, it was trick
This song has been my ringtone for the longest time
I have no idea why, but this song just helps me relieve stress. I love it, it helps a lot.
During this global pandemic, after a long day of no good news this song is just perfect. Be well everyone.
Good luck man
Yeah I find it so odd yet fitting for this period of chaos.
Stay safe everyone, you matter
I'm pretty sure a global pandemic is called an epidemic. Anyway stay safe bro

Always!!!Such a sweet song❤
creep has hit a billion, now it's no surprises' turn
Billie Eilish: I make the most depressing music!
Radiohead: Hold my aquarium
When Billie sings that she dreamed her head was under water on her new single, Thom's like, "Bitch, please."
Hahahaha made my depressing day
she is a joke, don't even mention her
@@williampusey8266 tbf the video is slowed down, thom actually was way less time underwater
Ok Boomer
feel like i’m the only radiohead fan who’s not depressed and just finds their music relaxing
Well now you know you're not the only one.
You’re not alone
Same
I used to listen these kind of songs in the gym. Not depressed at all, in fact the nice sensation of solitude helps me to see introspectively
Same here. The songs are calming and hold a feeling of familiarity. Same goes for songs by the smiths
I never knew that the background music i was searching for years will show up on my recommendations.
This song reminds me of a friendship on which I enjoyed every minute of it but it sadly ended when my friend changed schools
Director: So any ideas for the No Surprises video?
Thom: I could almost drown myself.
Rest of the band: yea okay that's cool...
apparently they did untold number of takes...the relief u see in his face is genuine after he nailed it after a day trying
@@declanflannagan8890 It depends on whichever video is older.This video was released January 12 1998
@four thirty I feel like thom hates doing everything.
@@biblical2699 He doesn’t actually. I had the pleasure of meeting him by accident and I was afraid because they say “don’t meet your hero’s” and the press gave them a negative spin. What an amazing surprise it was, he was happy, joking, inquisitive and he listened. The entire band I realized sitting there before I met Thom, afraid I’d be found and kicked out, were just a bunch of regular guys, so polite as I listened to their conversations. This was backstage at their tour for Kid A / Amnesiac. One of the best nights of my life.
@@phoenixgirl70 Wow that is very lucky,I would give the world to meet Thom in his pre Httt days.
For non-English speakers, without knowing what the lyrics of this song mean, the voices and sounds of this wonderful song invite us to reflect. And when we read the lyrics, they transmit the same as we felt. Amazing...
my bro explained it in english
@@dio780 😂
what language are you writing in though?
@@TownesB exactly xdd

Finally Found The SONG I Desperately Want to Listen ❤
Literally I listen this song and I cry everytime thats was heart touching........ 😢
My girlfriend died last week. She was a thalasemia patient. I just want a quiet life with no surprise.
be strong, I know it's hard but I believe in you..
❣
So sorry all my love to you
I'm so sorry
Im so sorry 😢
"No Thom Yorke was harmed during this video".
he almost was though, if you watch the making of it
Good. I'd hate to make a rally about it. Keep the faith.
He was not hurt physically but he was mentally
This song clears my head
Love this song...
No band brings me to tears like radiohead.
+fenkinfe - I find Bon Iver or Elliott Smith better at bringing me to tears, but nobody brings me to existential crisis like Radiohead.
+fenkinfe - coldplay also brings me to tears
im sorry. im just expressing that both band makes me cry.
ngengo mentioning Coldplay in a Radiohead video is always a mistake. Radiohead fans always make it clear that they don't like Coldplay.
Bender Alley I completely understand your frustration.
so relax
LOVE THIS SONGGGGG
the backing vocals at 3:08 always get me. the main lyrics being "no alarms and no surprises" while behind it, much quieter but more urgent is the "get me out of here, get me out" really does something for me.
Exactly right
I've never realized they sang "get me out of here", thanks for sharing!
@@yt.lilsantee for the longest time i didnt either, my boyfriend pointed it out to me a couple months ago and it made the song all the more melancholy
Get me out here, out of where?

''5 minutes into Radiohead and Chill and he gives you this look''
