My first love in high school dedicated this song to me, said it reminded him of me/us. He broke my heart not long after he told me about this song. For the longest time I couldn't hear this song without crying. Now I sit here married to the absolute love of my life with 2 teenage sons listening to it and I smile. It reminds of another time that while it was difficult, it was a still a great time. I was 16yo, had a driver's license, had a group of friends who I loved and who loved me dearly, had wonderful loving parents (who were alive then) and my future was wide open. This is why I love music. ETA- I just found out in December 2022 that my first love/the guy who told me about this song died in November 2021. He was found naked and alone in the middle of the road unconscious and spent 1 month in a coma and then died. His name was Sean David Roper and he didn't deserve to die like that. RIP my dear friend. We actually ended up getting back in touch as adults and were great friends like we were in high school before we dated. My husband liked him too. He was taken too soon and deserved so much better than what he got.
thx I can tell you have moved many to better themselves and their lives with the sheer empathetic sincerity in your words Truly the people of this world are worth so much if this is the thing people say to each other
My son is going through a tough time . Leaving drugs behind and loves a person who is still using . Send prayers his way . Please . He counts the days he is clean . Plays the guitar and sings . He copes w music . Pray for my kid . 😢
I will keep the both of you in my prayers because what he suffers from it not only affects him but it affects his family as well, I can empathize and sympathize with him because I am him I have almost two years clean uninterrupted. Even though every day is A battle I’m fighting for my life, some days are better than others, my worst day being clean doesn’t come anywhere near my best day when I was out there using. I am so grateful to be clean and experiencing this new way of life. Tell your Son to hang in there it do get better for people like us. I’m living proof. When I read your comment it touched me instantaneously, this song reminds me that the life I use to live was fake and the life I live today is real, it feels good to be here. Even though I don’t know you or your Family, much Love And Respect, and may peace and joy be A constant in y’all lives.
My interpretation of the song is that, Everyone around him feels fake\plastic. The guys she likes seem fake to him. She feels the only real person in his head, yet he realises she's as fake as the rest of the people. But he cannot help with the feelings he has for her and if only he could get rid of those feelings. He wishes he was a fake plasic tree just like everyone and be who she wanted, all the time. This feeling wears him out.
My perception of the song Everyone is submitting to the system, destroying the world with plastic. Plastic watering can, for a plastic plant, in a fake plastic world. It’s about a corporatist/capitalist system. Not people.
Radiohead hits differently when your so completely in love with your best friend and every single longing stare makes you wonder if she could ever like you that way, but she never could and would never see you that way no matter what you do no matter how hard you to try to please her and learn all her interests and change yourself for HER.
I’ve been there. My advice? Not that asked, but I would move on. Given everything you just said, you know that this relationship that you’ve fantasized about a million times will simply never be. The moments that give you hope are likely just normal or even mundane moments to her. But she can’t realize how special it might be for you because she simply doesn’t feel the same and has no idea you’re madly in love. Often times, the people we are meant to be with won’t have to be chased or longed for, because that person will feel the exact same way at the exact same time as you. Those people often come when we least expect it. Often when we aren’t looking. Give it time, and the real one will come. It sounds like bs, but it’s not. I promise. Me being a complete stranger, this likely holds no weight to you, but it’s the truth.
this song is exceptional and wonderful ... it makes me feel melancholy about something ... I have no friends, I suffer from bullying; but the music manages to make me vent
Sending Love 💗 Please get out and make some friends. There's got to be some wonderful things about you that needs to be shared. I know cause your listening to this beautiful music. My life-line always...Music 💖 Be kind to you !!
Everything happens for a reason, the darkness you’re going through right now is setting you up for a bright sunny day! You are loved, you will be loved, you will find your place on this earth, God bless you🤍
this is a song that can be interpreted as feeling disconnected, empty, and artificial in a world that often values superficiality and materialism. The "fake plastic trees" in the song can be seen as symbols of things that appear perfect and beautiful on the surface but lack genuine substance and meaning. The lyrics suggest a sense of disillusionment and a desire for something real and authentic in a world that can feel phony and manufactured. It's a song that conveys a sense of longing for authenticity and a rejection of the superficial, plastic aspects of life. In simple terms, the song is about feeling out of place in a world that sometimes seems insincere and shallow, and yearning for something more genuine and meaningful.
Here's my interpretation of the song: Verse 1: Fake currency created by people to buy a fake materialistic possession, she bought from a fake man who's running after materialistic things. Initially all this makes her wears her out, makes her really sad. Verse 2 : Her lover/husband is also a materialistic person who runs after worldly possessions. She also has to pretend to be fake and live with him, as she cannot run away from this life. As gravity always wins. This makes Thom sad, frustrated and wears him out. Verse 3 : In his head he imagined her as a real person in the world full of fake plastic people, ultimately realising she's just the same now. She's given in to being fake, but he cannot help with his feelings of love for her and he wishes he could get rid of those feelings. This feeling wears him out. Outro: He wishes if he could also be as materialistic/shallow as everyone around him, which he acted to be sometimes, but he knew he wasn't that person and couldn't be that all the time. If only he was a fake and shallow person as everyone around him, then he'd be someone she wanted.
Boil it down to a life surrounded with fakeness, and it wear you out until you slowly succumb and become fake yourself. Love and happiness is sold to you the same way, and by the same people who sell you Coca Cola and Big Macs.
This is also my interpretation....I had a girl who left her superficial bf cause I gave her a glimpse of something real...only for her to break my heart later and give into the same superficial nature that made her unhappy because I couldn't give her everything she wanted...this song opens up that deep cut every time I hear it, but also reminds me that I am not that person even if a girl I loved is
i think ur close but its really just about how everything mainstream in this world is fake.. the news, the shows, the culture.. people try their whole lives to catch up with the jonses... it will wear you out..and its all meant to.. designed to keep u on that rat wheel chasing the cheese.. gravity always wins because no matter how many surgeries a person gets we all age and it becomes more and more obvious as time goes on... the end verses speak for themselves.. but like he says.. i could blow through the ceiling so i can just turn and run and get the hell out of this fake plastic world
For me: This is thom yorke after creep. the first two verses is him trying to make something, something like creep before ultimately letting it all out in the third and fourth verse. He wants the party rockstar heavy lifestyle, he wants all the girls with the perfect artificial body he wants it and yet....He just can't, this is not what who he wanted in the first place, He just wants to make music.
عندما استمعت لأول مرة إلى أغنية "Fake Plastic Trees" لفرقة Radiohead، شعرت وكأنها تعبر تمامًا عن تجربتي الشخصية في الشعور بالاغتراب والحزن. الكلمات المؤثرة والموسيقى الحزينة سحبتني إلى عالم مليء بالزيف والتصنع، تمامًا كما أشعر أحيانًا في حياتي اليومية. الأغنية جعلتني أدرك كيف أن الأشياء والأشخاص من حولي قد يفقدون قيمتهم الحقيقية في مجتمع مادي. كانت تجربة استماعي لهذه الأغنية بمثابة لحظة تأمل عميقة، جعلتني أعيد التفكير في ما يهمني حقًا في الحياة وما يجعلها ذات قيمة.
Thank you for this. I have played this song for years and always forget the lyrics. This helps immensely with remembering them since i'm visual and need to actually see the words. Thank you
Listening to this song always gets me sad. I cant help but only relate to everything, i can never listen to it again when it always reminds me of people i miss
I remember seeing this song on his ex's profile. Now that he's gone,(he left me so easily after making me feel so loved and wanted) I understood everything. I can now feel every word in this song.
When lyrics hit you later in life differently driving down the road on a random Tuesday. Watch out kids- you don’t even see it coming, you don’t see it hit you, you don’t realize you’ve been hit, then you’re driving along and holy crap-
"If I could be who you wanted..." That was the story of my life, until now. So tired of living for what eceryone exoects of me. It's finally time to carve out my own path, regardless of what society wants. The box ticking has been exhausting. It wears me out. ✌️
I used to watch the music video for 'Fake Plastic Trees' on MTV in the '90s, but I didn’t get the lyrics because English isn’t my first language. Recently, I remembered the song and looked up the lyrics. I was immensely delighted by the irony and sarcasm in it! It made me laugh so much, and I love it!
@clayefferson well Clay, i hope you can lift yourself up, and it doesn't wear you out. Peace love and respect to yourself our broken plastic soldier 🫡
Radiohead was the soundtrack for the end of my doomed marriage, I just gravitated to it. My fake plastic love, he never loved me, my sub conscious showed me through the music like magic.
I feel like these lyrics are simultaneously obscure yet incredibly familiar on an archetypal, almost primal level, kinda like a David Lynch movie. Like I couldn't tell you the specific meaning of each line, but I can tell you the overall impression and "story" the song seems to tell of world-weariness and endless daydreaming to make modern life tolerable...
Today, me and my very good friend aren't friends any more sadly, so I always go to this song as therapy for me, I rlly don't know why we split, all I did was give her a warning, and I am a life long sufferer of depression and suicidal thoughts, and like I said, this song is my therapist
this song may help at times, as it does me. we listen to know we are not alone. but do get actual therapy, dude. i am also saying this to myself. wish you well.
everytime i listen to this song, all the the negative emotions that i feel right now is surging, im so stressed and depressed, i wish i could turn back time... i fcking hate myself so much!
It is supposed to help you heal, try and look for the good things, and if you have been trying already, for a long time, nothing ever ever comes easy ❤️
I'm 53 going on 54, and I can't seem to find anything except the fake plastic trees all around me. Just want a meaning or purpose to my life, but I can't seem to find it. Maybe this is as good as it gets.
I can't even talk to her because I of my anxiety. So i imagined we are happy together and something not real. A year later, she fell in love with another man. It’s all my fault she left so ill do my best to make her happy and her relationship
This song is about two people unhappy in life AND their marriage I would say "blow through the ceiling" is a self harm reference The song as a whole says, "don't complain, it's everyone and it's how life is." It brings tears every time. The song is a quiet cry for help from all parties mentioned." It is clearly a Bread rip-off, but with pent up regret and sadness (anger turned inward) shadow ban that, RUclips.
didn't take it that way "blow through the ceiling" like as in break the glass ceiling "If I just turn and run" meaning the person in the relationship is holding him back and he could be happy and successful if just walked away from the relationship.
I used to hang out with the girl I was in love with, one day she confessed me that she liked me back, We started to know each other with that context, we kissed, we met each others life and things we liked. I asked if she wanted to be my girlfriend and she said yes, I felt so lucky about it, and today, like a month and a little more later… she broke up with me, it hurts… but I’ll be fine
This song seems to mock the desire for love between man and woman, and the pain of life, yet longs for the peace of mind when both are in harmony. The Harmony of Marital and Life Achievement 🧐
My first love in high school dedicated this song to me, said it reminded him of me/us. He broke my heart not long after he told me about this song. For the longest time I couldn't hear this song without crying. Now I sit here married to the absolute love of my life with 2 teenage sons listening to it and I smile.

I was 16yo, had a driver's license, had a group of friends who I loved and who loved me dearly, had wonderful loving parents (who were alive then) and my future was wide open. This is why I love music.
ETA- I just found out in December 2022 that my first love/the guy who told me about this song died in November 2021. He was found naked and alone in the middle of the road unconscious and spent 1 month in a coma and then died. His name was Sean David Roper and he didn't deserve to die like that. RIP my dear friend. We actually ended up getting back in touch as adults and were great friends like we were in high school before we dated. My husband liked him too. He was taken too soon and deserved so much better than what he got.

Hi. You wrote this message 11 months ago. Hope you are doing fine
Irene, may your son stop struggling with those issues and can have a long lasting healthy life. In the name of the Father. 🙌🏻🙌🏻
Lifiting you and your family up in prayer.....
And if I could be who you wanted. If I could be who you wanted. All the time. All the time. I love how this song ends!
At the very end he says "i would"
@@TheSchmuck2 Yes. 👍🏻
This part is so sad for me
Perfect isn't it?
This hits hard when you're thinking of someone.

Plastic watering can, for a plastic plant, in a fake plastic world.
It’s about a corporatist/capitalist system. Not people.
And if you actually listened to radioheads music deeper you would realize so, especially because of no surprises.
And he feels he could do better if he leaves which is sad because he probably does love that girl
No shit sherlock

That background effect at 1:45 (synth possibly mixed with strings) is heavenly. lifts this song to greatness.
I haven’t heard this song in years man. It’s good to hear it again
this song is exceptional and wonderful ... it makes me feel melancholy about something ... I have no friends, I suffer from bullying; but the music manages to make me vent
if you like Radiohead ... you might like plastic tree (jrock) ♥️
You are not alone. I am your friend.

It wears us out
It wears us out

You can only describe this song in one word ‘masterpiece’
Up there with the Waterboys ‘whole of the moon’ and the Verve’s ‘drugs don’t work’
"If I could be who you wanted..."
That was the story of my life, until now. So tired of living for what eceryone exoects of me. It's finally time to carve out my own path, regardless of what society wants. The box ticking has been exhausting. It wears me out.
✌️
Absolute eargasam.
The whole game og Life is to become your Authentic Self. And that cannot and will not be found outside yourself. ❤️
Such a great reflecting song. After years of fighting addiction, I look at my life now and I feel blessed by what I have, but also cursed by my past.
Thankyou.. Please look back on our time and trust i wasnt fake at all. You were my little soul mate... In my fake plastic world
I also forgot the lyrics.....banging tune and Lyrics. It's made me very emotional today. Love it ♥
Gravity definitely always wins..
Just ask Tits Maggee
One of the greatest songs written, ever. Period. Not a soul alive can hear this tune and NOT think of that ONE PERSON.
radioheads songs are the only reason ill stay alive ❤️🤟
Thom Yorke actually cried when they finished the first three recording of this song. It only shows this song is made for tearshedding.
A beautiful song with such unique yet relevant lyrics gotta give RH points for originality!
What a masterpiece...
This is a five minutes novel, exceptional indeed.
I used to watch the music video for 'Fake Plastic Trees' on MTV in the '90s, but I didn’t get the lyrics because English isn’t my first language. Recently, I remembered the song and looked up the lyrics. I was immensely delighted by the irony and sarcasm in it! It made me laugh so much, and I love it!
I always imagine a girl in her apartment watering her plants and she's living with her boyfriend. She's trying not to cry and just smile for him.
And she's thinking this 3:53
"if I could be
who you wanted
all the time"
🥺
Truly it's tiring to seek approval and validation from others. Conformity can sometimes be a poison.
A hauntingly beautiful voice and song 🌹❤️🎶🌹❤️🎶
Radiohead are actually the goats
@notThatBad411 It's hard to say, I really like Nude, Subterranean Homesick Alien, Karma Police
@notThatBad411 street spirit, climbing up the walls, bodysnatchers
@notThatBad411 also the song Just
Paranoid android. One of the most complex song ever
it wears me out
Probably the best alternative rock music ever made
As I sit here reflecting on my marriage during our new separation phase, this song hits hard.
Me too... getting divorced. She cheated and I never did. Gave her all I had. Sometimes it just isn't enough
@clayefferson well Clay, i hope you can lift yourself up, and it doesn't wear you out. Peace love and respect to yourself our broken plastic soldier 🫡
When you hear it for the first time The lyrics doesn't make any sense when you deeply understand the song your life doesn't make any sense
Radiohead was the soundtrack for the end of my doomed marriage, I just gravitated to it. My fake plastic love, he never loved me, my sub conscious showed me through the music like magic.

Revisiting being 18 😢❤ just be who you are
This song hits different when im sometimes feel special and sometimes like im fool, especially when you have a crush on someone.
Today, me and my very good friend aren't friends any more sadly, so I always go to this song as therapy for me, I rlly don't know why we split, all I did was give her a warning, and I am a life long sufferer of depression and suicidal thoughts, and like I said, this song is my therapist
Good to know. Hope you are doing well now.
this song may help at times, as it does me. we listen to know we are not alone. but do get actual therapy, dude. i am also saying this to myself. wish you well.
Always loved this
a man who just CRUMBIES and burns 😆
After so many years I still love this song 18 going on 50
Damn
somehow i was very happy to find this
16,First time listening this.
I didn't know this song existed....
Great song, subd. Thanks for the lyrics ❤🌹
Thom Yorkes voice hits different the older u get! Beautiful!
Ese final... "If I could be who you wanted..." me rompe el alma y siempre me hace llorar
It remind of girl I had crush while I was in School it's been 8 year I never see her but my love for her is same I wish to write like you someday.
First time to hear this song this midnight 12/31/2021. Reality bites.
“crumbies” 🤣🤣🤣🤣
Genius.
I love this song ♡
Every time I hear this song, I can't help but hear the lyrics " in a town full of Robert Plants."
Gravity always wins hits different
everytime i listen to this song, all the the negative emotions that i feel right now is surging, im so stressed and depressed, i wish i could turn back time... i fcking hate myself so much!
It is supposed to help you heal, try and look for the good things, and if you have been trying already, for a long time, nothing ever ever comes easy ❤️
Beautiful
I'm 53 going on 54, and I can't seem to find anything except the fake plastic trees all around me. Just want a meaning or purpose to my life, but I can't seem to find it. Maybe this is as good as it gets.
My favorite song
One if the reasons why I put the Bends above OK computer.
She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love😢
I would add a verse about plastic branches
I can't even talk to her because I of my anxiety. So i imagined we are happy together and something not real. A year later, she fell in love with another man. It’s all my fault she left so ill do my best to make her happy and her relationship
Love this song \M/
i love this song so much
Though your music library is awesome 🔥❤️ I would like to hear porcupine tree 🙂 too
2:29
i was not a good brother,a good son and i always angry I don't know why I'm angry.
This song is about two people unhappy in life AND their marriage
I would say "blow through the ceiling" is a self harm reference
The song as a whole says, "don't complain, it's everyone and it's how life is."
It brings tears every time. The song is a quiet cry for help from all parties mentioned."
It is clearly a Bread rip-off, but with pent up regret and sadness (anger turned inward) shadow ban that, RUclips.
didn't take it that way "blow through the ceiling" like as in break the glass ceiling
"If I just turn and run" meaning the person in the relationship is holding him back and he could be happy and successful if just walked away from the relationship.
Oof, that 3rd verse. So much buildup from the rest of the song that just explodes out in that verse. It makes me emotional every time!
HS vibes… reminiscing in 2024😢
Hits me every time , when I'm alone I'm tired to make things better!!
thank you.
Addicted by Grace and Matt !!! Before we were stranger
It hurts to know that my crush is listening to this song and thinking of someone else and im here listening it for him😭😞
Aww man that sucks
Awesome
I would sing this to my 5 year old daughter. Man I’m getting old.
I have a feeling my first love is going to end and her love feels fake.
Love this
RIP to Jeff Buckley, the inspiration to Thom’s performance here

And now we’re just strangers with each other’s secrets.
I used to hang out with the girl I was in love with, one day she confessed me that she liked me back,
We started to know each other with that context, we kissed, we met each others life and things we liked.
I asked if she wanted to be my girlfriend and she said yes, I felt so lucky about it, and today, like a month and a little more later… she broke up with me, it hurts… but I’ll be fine
This happened to me as well.

Thanks for reading my story,
Let’s both be strong
That sucks, hope it goes better next time
This song seems to mock the desire for love between man and woman, and the pain of life, yet longs for the peace of mind when both are in harmony.
The Harmony of Marital and Life Achievement 🧐
Fake people, gravity always wins
Oh, to cross paths with someone who isn't fake
I don't think time's on my side
Shame about the typo 'though' as 'thought'. Our choir is about to start rehearsing an arrangement, looking forward to it!
I love this..♡
i love this song
He wanted me to sing this song, and I still have feelings for you....I don't want you next to me, but I want to remember you
This song is from back when people actually had genuine, deep feelings
Nice song
