Radiohead Climbing Up The Walls (Live BBC) best live performance. If you want it in MP3 format send me a pvt message here on youtube. Dont forget to include ur email.
The fact that the guy who posted this literally offered to send a MP3 file over UA-cam private message just amazes me and makes me feel nostalgic at the same time
I'm glad someone uploaded this so I don't have to. Easily one of my favorite of their recordings. Thom's vocal performance is amazing. I always get goosebumps when his voice first comes in.
wow.. how do they perfome a song like this live and make it sound like... better than perfect? i never thought they could outmatch the studio version, which already is godly piece of music. and Thom's voice is frigging awesome here, especially at the end ^^
This version is better than that of study. The atmosphere that emits the painting and the song created an indescribable atmosphere. Everything fits perfectly
For some reason, this song reminds me of 'The Lord of The Flies', by William Golding! Great book! And great song! It's haunting as hell but it's definitely one of my favourites!
I am the key to the lock in your house That keeps your toys in the basement And if you get too far inside You'll only see my reflection I am the face as she sleeps tonight I am the pick in the ice Do not cry out or hit the alarm You know we're friends 'til we die And either way you turn I'll be there Open up your skull I'll be there Climbing up the walls It's always best when the light is off It's always better on the outside Fifteen blows to the back of your head Fifteen blows to your mind So lock the kids up safe tonight Shut the eyes in the cupboard I've got the smell of a local man Who's got the loneliest feeling That either way he turns I'll be there Open up your skull I'll be there Climbing up the walls Climbing up the walls
Long back I was ODing on this song and also happened to see Paranormal Activity at the same time. Everything fitted so well that is was more than scary!
in the live versions thom occasionally sings "i am the face as she sleeps tonight" but on the album version its "its always best when the light is off/covers up" not sure exactly of the correct lyric, but he does have 2 different lyrics he uses he must of thought of that lyric after he recorded it =p
i thumbed you back up to even, b/c i'm guessing you meant "killin it" as in "he's doing an incredibkle job." it's hard to tell with slang these days...
@lasrarities yes, thom is playing the acoustic guitar, but colin is playing the keyboard (distortioned bass sound), Johnny is playing the electric guitar with a violin bow, as his favorite guitarist, jimmy page did. he also plays Onde Martenot at the end, at a very high tone. and Ed plays guitar (clean and distortioned), most of the time, plays his guitar on the other side of the guitar nut, and it gives the "ting" sound (more likely at the begining, when thom starts singing...).
@theleo2004 Might I humbly submit an extension of the most epic moment ever? While I totally agree with you, I really gotta say the most epic moment ever really isn't the most epic without the scream at 4:02...

This is like Climbing Up The Walls gone nuclear. Such a great live performance.
the electric bass on this song is terrifying and amazing at the same time
Imagine this beeing played at your funeral, would freak everyone the fuck out
Beggbies gonna get you you're so correct am performing this song this year I love radiohead lol great song always
This song never fails to destroy me - this recording is especially eviscerating. Munch would approve.
this is the best version. they usually take it too fast when its live, like at glastonbury 03. but this is the best speed.
love it
please dont listen to this with noise cancelling headphones in the dark thank you
Definitely doing that imo
Oops
that's the BEST CUTW performance I've ever heard. Played with full volume is just... unexplainable
this is one of radioheads best songs, maybe their most unique too
Why am I just now hearing this version.
I won't get tired to repeat this: *THIS SONG IS A FUCKING MASTERPIECE* ohhhhh i love it
A slow, brooding build to an overwhelming sonic explosion. And all of it is great. First time I've heard this live version. Thanks for sharing it.
I love the feeling of insanity in this versions vocals. Chilling
This is even better than the studio version.
My god that's a good copy, i love how claustrophobic it makes me feel, full of foreboding tension
The fact that the guy who posted this literally offered to send a MP3 file over UA-cam private message just amazes me and makes me feel nostalgic at the same time
Good song from Radiohead's genius. I liked so much Thom's passage falsetto/voice (1.45-1.52)....JUST PERFECT! RADIOHEAD RULE!!!
Italy loves you...

4 minutes and 29 seconds of pure chills... And then the ten seconds after it ends where you just feel empty.
best performance of this song ever......:P
do not cry out or hit the alarm, were friends till we die......the way he sings this one is what makes it....eeeerrriieee melody.
This version is better than that of study. The atmosphere that emits the painting and the song created an indescribable atmosphere. Everything fits perfectly

Ricardo Çocoletzi Yo Tambien Wey, Es Que Esta Rola Es Una Ñonga Wey :333
i just canot believe it .the first time i listen to this song,this
the very last climbing up the walls vocal always gets me
For some reason, this song reminds me of 'The Lord of The Flies', by William Golding! Great book!
And great song! It's haunting as hell but it's definitely one of my favourites!
I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
And if you get too far inside
You'll only see my reflection
I am the face as she sleeps tonight
I am the pick in the ice
Do not cry out or hit the alarm
You know we're friends 'til we die
And either way you turn
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there
Climbing up the walls
It's always best when the light is off
It's always better on the outside
Fifteen blows to the back of your head
Fifteen blows to your mind
So lock the kids up safe tonight
Shut the eyes in the cupboard
I've got the smell of a local man
Who's got the loneliest feeling
That either way he turns
I'll be there
Open up your skull
I'll be there
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls
THIS IS HOW ROCK AND ROLL GET PLAYD, RADIOHEAD PLAYS THIS SONG LIKE SHIT ANYMORE....THIS IS HOWWWWW
Long back I was ODing on this song and also happened to see Paranormal Activity at the same time. Everything fitted so well that is was more than scary!
ah the famous scream picture with Radioheads Climbing up the walls, Good Idea fabiocchi!!!
Dear god when, where was this
Fabiocchi

my
hero
I don't quite agree with some people that this is better than the album version, but its certainly orgasmic.
Great to see this! Thanks for posting.
This is the best performance from this song ahhhh its so good
Holy shit.
4 people are stuck at the foot of the wall.
YOU ONLY SEE MY REFLECTION.
I need that audio in higher quality.
satisfying.
7 People approve only of Disney music
312 figure out there's more to life than just keeping one's head full of air.
Awsome version!!!
I not only love this famous painting, but also the "scream" at the end of the song.
Man it’s like a monster, it just slowly creeps up on you until it’s too late
Phenominal Song!! Great version too!
in the live versions thom occasionally sings "i am the face as she sleeps tonight"
but on the album version its "its always best when the light is off/covers up" not sure exactly of the correct lyric, but he does have 2 different lyrics he uses
he must of thought of that lyric after he recorded it =p
wish i could see the video
i thumbed you back up to even, b/c i'm guessing you meant "killin it" as in "he's doing an incredibkle job." it's hard to tell with slang these days...
Radiohead le agregó expresión a "el grito".
hASTA la mejor version en vivo que escuche de esa cancion.
this is beter than the studio one and he studio one is my favorite radiohead song !!!!!!! but this is so uberly epic
Wow
@AtomsForPeace92 i thought it was smile, which just makes it even creepier
its an Ondes Martenot its a keyboard but in front of the keys there is a string with a ring on it and you can pull the ring from side to side.
Levels.
The best fuckin version
Good job!!
Agreed.
Cool

Joël Duplessis Jonny is actually running a military grade radio through his guitar rig, and distorting it with delay and shit and whammy and stuff
No video? Thanks for the upload though! Was this a recent performance?

Does anyone know when this was recorded? I'm guessing around the OK Computer days, like 97 or 98, or is it more recent? Just curious.
Live From BBC Radio 1's Evening Sessions, 6/9/1997
Wow really?! That's crazy!
glastonbury 97 doesn't have nice audio but it's ever better
@russianpickaxe want to scare the hell out of yourself? listen to this song
What year was this?
sweep echo effect
15 blows to the back off your head..15 blows till you die..so lock the kids up safe tonite.
Shiteeee
I prefer the album version's vocals, drums are waaay better here. Other than that.

@theleo2004 Might I humbly submit an extension of the most epic moment ever? While I totally agree with you, I really gotta say the most epic moment ever really isn't the most epic without the scream at 4:02...
