I was at the concert. The audio doesn't pick it up very well, but you can hear that a bunch of us behind the camera had started booing the mention of the movie and I think that's what made him laugh. You can hear it a bit once the cheering from people near the camera dies down.
@@user-bu6nq1ve6m Booing is when the crowd literally yells “booooooo” in a loud deep voice. They do this to show they don’t like something. In this case, we did it to show that we didn’t like the James Bond movie Spectre because they rejected the song that Radiohead wrote for the movie.
Biggest mistake in movie history not using this song as the theme. It’s perfect in every way for the movie; words, music, vibe, it can’t be bettered. This should go in the rock and roll hall of fame.
I’m a huge Radiohead fan who wishes this would have been picked any day over the Sam Smith track but ’biggest mistake in movie history’? You can tell the circlejerk is strong here
Personally glad it isn’t tied to the movie, that movie sucked ass and it’d just leave a bad taste to the song if it was tied to any memories of the film.
@@TSPH1992 That indeed. Definitely not the best bond theme ever though. Love the song, and I like Radiohead, but I'd even say purely looking at the function of the theme, Writings on the wall was a better fit for Bond out of the two. This did not have enough Bond influence
I'm lost, I'm a ghost Dispossessed, taken host My hunger burns a bullet hole A spectre of my mortal soul These rumours and suspicion Anger is a poison The only truth that I could see Is when you put your lips to me Futures tricked by the past Spectre, how he laughs Fear puts a spell on us Always second-guessing love My hunger burns a bullet hole A spectre of my mortal soul The only truth that I can see Spectre has come for me
Would love to hear a full band live version of this: Phil's drumming has a great jazzy feel, not unlike Pyramid Song. And it might be interesting to see how Jonny and Ed recreate the orchestral accompaniment.
I've been looking for this...it was my first radiohead show after over 10 years. Best places i ever had for a show (right behind the player benches) and probably one of the best setlist i heard from them. I was absolutely blown away when they strarted this one...never thought they would play it live.
Better track than the producers picked for the film (which is a fantastic song as well)…this is a song for the fans and one of their greatest compositions
Found this gem after finishing No Time to Die and looking into random Bond musings like ‘what is the best Bond theme of all time’… Good god! What an eerie quagmire! This song touches parts of the soul that fail to exist in harmony with a simplistic life. Something Bond could never have. It only ever grinds against the complexity of life itself in ways we ignore out of subconscious fear. It brings out ‘the Spectre of my mortal soul’ to put it plainly. The fact that this didn’t get used as intended is almost as haunting and twisted as the song itself… A true, true masterpiece of the arts much like Ian Fleming’s spy thriller writing. The melody is the vocals, the vocals are the bass, the drums the horns, the horns the guitar, the lyrics a metronome… it’s as uneasy as the relationship between Bond and his semi-nonexistent brother… The very existence of this rejected, near forgotten albeit doubtlessly iconic, tragic song in our lives is the parallel to the existence of Ernst Stavro Blofeld in Bond’s life. Radiohead tapped into a dark science with this piece, a wayward calling that never rests, ‘too dark’ was the best call in the worst way, unfortunately, but in defense of the rejection- any half decent producer, no, any sane man would obviously know not to allow such a maddening darkness to be put on mass display. I’m legitimately thankful for the wise decision to not allow this indecent, unbecoming hypnosis of sound to penetrate general audiences and our innocent youth. As such, Craig’s Bond series in its entirety lives and dies through this song in perpetuity.
I liked sam smith's song for spectre but thematically spectre fits perfectly to what the movie was, bleak and melancholy. Fitting for bond to confront his past ghosts and discovering spectre.
I think Radiohead were approached for composing the opening to Spectre but probably asked to see the film while in post production phase to see if it was worth their while to lend their name and song to the film. After watching the film, Thom Yorke probably got up and said “nah this movie is garbage, you guys can find someone else. Have you tried calling Sam Smith?”
Well, Radiohead has been trying to score a Bond movie since the 90s. Their song Man O' War was their first attempt, and that was written back before OK Computer was even released. And the studio that made Spectre flat out rejected their score, calling it "too dark", and "too moody" for them, which is the stupidest reason to reject a Radiohead score. My thinking is that the studio wanted a more pop artist to score the movie, and Sam Smith, having just won a bunch of grammys is probably at the top of their list.
Jesus this is sad to listen to when you realize we could’ve had THIS over Sam Smith’s boring Bond song. Probably one of the worst and easily the worst of the Craig Bond films
This is so much better than the official Spectre theme.
best Bond theme ever written, personally.
Mmm no
In my opinion Studio version is best
This orchestra are amazing

@@Joshluden that’s a very true and fair statement, good point
I think the biggest mistake in movie history was black face.
sam smith's was not bad as well.
This song live with the full strings arrangement would probably kill me from overdosing on pure elation.
Lol not to be confused with the James Bond film
this song was originally written for the bond film

NOT A RADIOHEAD FAN.. But this is the perfect James Bond theme. A work of art.
I think this song to james bond is like something in the way to Batman, perfectly captures the spirit of the character and their struggle.
Chills every time I hear this song, it’s really missing those glorious strings though
agreed, so good but better with orchestra. Gives me goosepimples every time :O
Idk it kinda seems more emotional and feels lonelier without that layer to hide behind. It feels raw.
aw, Thoms laugh at the beginning is cute
I can only imagine what the music video for this masterpiece would've been like.
Literally the greatest bond theme ever written. Full fucking stop.
The greatest bond theme that never made it into the movies

@@mijn21 Wrong
@@mijn21 its one of the most bond sounding music ever especially with the added orchestration..idk why people think that
@@therealpotpol4027 again, not saying it's a bad song, just think Writings in the wall purely as Bond theme is better imo
Chris Cornell's "You know my name" is amazing, but Radiohead writing a Bond theme: this is just another level.
There is also a band called Portishead and most of their songs are like perfect Bond theme
Tom has such a uniquely beautiful voice.
I'm lost, I'm a ghost
Dispossessed, taken host
My hunger burns a bullet hole
A spectre of my mortal soul
These rumours and suspicion
Anger is a poison
The only truth that I could see
Is when you put your lips to me
Futures tricked by the past
Spectre, how he laughs
Fear puts a spell on us
Always second-guessing love
My hunger burns a bullet hole
A spectre of my mortal soul
The only truth that I can see
Spectre has come for me
Would love to hear a full band live version of this: Phil's drumming has a great jazzy feel, not unlike Pyramid Song. And it might be interesting to see how Jonny and Ed recreate the orchestral accompaniment.
Cuando creí que la canción no podía ser más perfecta, Tom la canta y toca en vivo de esta manera tan magnífica
how are all their songs better live???
AND how are all their b-sides or unreleased songs sooooo gooooood???
Wish they released more live albums
What a Beautiful Song.
IT'S PERFECT IT'S PERFECT
Oh my. Hope to hear it live at some point.
I would probably cry if i was there watching this song playing live
"Song: Creep"
it seems radiohead worst nightmare still haunts them

More Collin love please.
Fucking brilliant.
We should never associate this song with that Bond movie anymore. This is just better on its own. That movie just kills the vibes of this song.
The Gmaj7 chord on the guitar is so painful to play :-(
XD
yes
i love colin coz cozziee
this should be the real theme of "Spectre"
Easily the best Bond theme that never was.
Holy fuck
Vesper Lynd likes this ¤¤7
You read my mind. This song always evokes images of Vesper.Eva Green is timeless.
What were the bond producers thinking? Dark perfect bond theme 100 per cent better than Sam smith!
maybe they thought the song is too good for rather average Bond movie:D

a way to say : "we freiled it" by signing. We know how they crushed down then
