Dude really just went "react time!" and did everything BUT react, and you're happy about it??? 😂😂😂 Wtf are you even talking about lol he basically just played music for you to pretend you were listening with him, if you wanna watch a dude listen to music and nothing else hang out with someone christ 💀
@@sammalla5238 yes. they have a couple of songs on the soundtrack, and I believe Talk Show Host (another solid reaction recommendation) was actually in the movie. I think Thom said they recorded this for use as the exit music for that movie, but it wasn't used. Hence, the title.
@@koll no, it wasn't. It was written for it, but Baz Lurhmann decided against using it. (It may have been added to foreign versions later, but it certainly wasn't in the original)
I think this album catapulted them from “just another Brit Rock-Pop band into something else. Not to mention they threw the rule book out with the next 2 albums and pretty much made their own rules which others tried to follow. This song is stunning. I saw them live in 2016 and when they played this you couldn’t hear a single mutter or sound from the crowd. We all stood in absolute reverence and watched the magic unfold. Full of all their angst, menace and tension without seeming to have to try too hard to convey it all.
One of the most haunting songs ever written, one of my favourites as well You should try Radioheads songs Man of War, Street Spirit and Fake Plastic Trees. They are awesome tunes
Yeah, this song was for that Leonardo DiCaprio Romeo + Juliet movie. So at the end of the song he's talking about them killing themselves to be together and that he hopes everyone that tried to keep them apart "chokes". Also, this is truly the perfect "exit music" for film and TV. Everytime I've seen it used it gives me goosebumps!
“We hope your rules and wisdom choke you. We hope that you choke. That you choke.” The anger of youth cursing the old and traditional. Hopefully, we’ve all felt it, and may we never choke on our own rules and wisdom.
One of my all time favorites. This song gives me chills every time! The atmosphere of this entire album is what convinced me that Radiohead is one of THE greatest bands of all time.
I'd heard Creep and some others that I really liked when they came out, but it was this song that made me take the band really serious for the first time and I've been a pretty big fan ever since. Hope that becomes true for you as well.
@@jvig7353 I fell in love when i heard "Creep" but i did not look into them any further....don't know why i didn't. I appreciate you sharing that with me thankyou 😃🤘
OK Computer is one of the greatest albums of all time. Every time I hear the intro to the opening track, Airbag, I get goosebumps. I instantly travel back in time to being like 17 years old. This was in like 2007 but I always see the lighted up dashboard of my Volkswagen and remembering all the times I drove around in that car alone, or with friends, and just blasting this album. Lucky and The Tourist are two of my favorites. What a way to close an ablum. Some older folk don't like hearing it but Radiohead is the closest we'll ever get again to Pink Floyd. This album also had some of the greatest B Sides ever. Pearly and Polyethylene are so good. It's insane to think they were left off the album.
I like Palo Alto, lift and Man of War if they wanted to they could put together at least 3 great albums of just their b-sides I love the b-sides from Amnesiac.
I love it when great artists from different mediums collaborate. Radiohead giving the "OK" to Black Mirror for using this song in the "Shut Up and Dance" episode is an example. Its like a great show gets to acknowledge a great band and vice versa at the same time. The song really helps deliver the episode's knockout blow.
3:16 still amazes me how the background sound sounds like what could be children playing in a park but it's just a guitar having strings being strokes up an down
Wow, never thought this song would have a reaction video. Love it! This is one of those songs I forget about until something awry goes on in my life. This song is a gift, isn’t it?
You got the most varied selection of reactions on RUclips. From my favorites, to things that aren't in my wheelhouse but that I can discover. Rock, indie, hip hop, experimental, old, new, well known or forgotten. appreciate you man!!! You got De la Soul, Radiohead and Edith Piaf... geez.. Keep on keeping on...
Some artists write songs that sound like 4 minutes of a loop repeating on Garage Band. Radiohead writes songs that sound like a rediscovered classical masterpiece found on sheet music beneath a 17th century Italian church.
I’m a Gen-X guy. As is Radiohead. The line “We hope your rules and wisdom choke you” is our love letter to the baby boomers. Do better than we have done.
Radiohead wrote this song for the movie Romeo and Juliet the one with Leo Dicaprio. This song didn't make it onto the soundtrack. If you think about Romeo and Juliet the song makes sense. I think this song ended up being more significant than the movie it was written for.
This is the story of Romeo and Juliet - especially when heard in context of album - OK Computer, one of the greatest albums of all time - this song hits with such power - I hope you listen to it again down the line now that it has planted a seed in your brain because it has the ability to become one of those top unforgettable tracks of a lifetime.
Very genuine reaction, I feel some reactors sort of force themselves to put on a facade, of them really messing with the tune they're listening to. You dissected it nicely at the end too, awesome stuff man.
Radiohead. I got into them when OK Computer came out. My formative years in popular music were in 1995-1996-1997, and some great albums I listened in those years (not necessarily released then) are also Homogenic (1997) by Björk Blue (1971) by Joni Mitchell Under the Pink (1994) by Tori Amos Boys for Pele (1996) by Tori Amos The Bends (1995) by Radiohead Solace (1991) by Sarah McLachlan The Downward Spiral (1994) by Nine Inch Nails... i can stop now.
This reminds me of Marketa Irglova's "If You Want Me." Also hauntingly beautiful. "Once" is such an underrated movie. Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova. Also want to recommend "When Your Mind's Made Up" and "Lies" from Glen Hansard. He's got a real Cat Stevens vibe. Love them.
How To Dissapear Completely is their best song when it comes to the melancholic songs from them imo, I actually am a bigger fan of their more high tempo stuff
Good to see you wear a headset and not interrupt every few minutes, like many of them do. Your face during the song says enough, and the comments at the end are way better than keep interrupting the song.
in 1980 my mum woke me up at 4am and told me to be quiet and pack my bag we were leaving. She was in a relationship with a guy who used to hit me and probably her, now this isn't a sad story for me it was what it was. Fast forward 23 years and when i heard this the most emphatic release of emotion came out and i didn't realise how much more resilient i was at the age of ten than i was at age 33. My favourite Radiohead song for this reason, and its so beautifully pained and dramatic.
If you liked the vibe of this check out the Icelandic band Sigur Ros. Some of their songs: Svefn-g-englar, Olsen olsen, and Hoppípolla. Other cool post-rock bands are Godspeed You Black Emperor, Explosions in the Sky and Mogwai.
Man I love me some Sigur Ros. Seen them live twice. GYBE now there’s a band I haven’t listened to in forever. If you know Godspeed, I would assume you know about Sunny Day Real Estate.
A suicide pack between two lovers with disapproving parents with a hosepipe to the car exhaust - yet it still sounds beautiful. Incredible. For a few years this band were untouchable.
In case you're interested, "How To Disappear Completely" is regarded by Thom Yorke their lead songwriter as the greatest song they've ever written. But you have to appreciate complex music. It's a masterpiece but in a very unconventional way.
'sup G - I'm just here engaging without anything special to say. I've been subbed for a minute, but RUclips forgets that, so let's hope this improves both of our algorithms (fuck knows why this popped into my feed randomly, but I'm with it). I love how you don't chase trends - do you man. Peace.
react to their album Ok Computer which this is from! there’s not alot of reactions and it’s like a cult classic bro. Their next album, Kid A, is so fucking different and it’s worth listening to Ok Computer just to see how wildly different their next album is. Radiohead kinda saved my life, you’ll love OKC.
bro if you want to get huge I’d react to all of radiohead’s albums (skip Pablo Honey it’s shit lmao). Guarantee it’d bring you an audience to recommend you other stuff too. Radiohead fans are cool af, a little depressed, but we understand loyalty. You have to when your favorite band takes so long inbetween album releases😪
One thing I feel sorry for reactors, and kids of this generation is they never get to listen to albums from start to finish. So many albums have themes, and are roller coasters of emotion.
I think it's a "content strategy" for most of them. They rather break the album up into parts to maximize their content. Me personally it's time lol I literally get interrupted so much it's insane, so individual songs work better for my lifestyle at this present time, Appreciate your feedback family!
At 2:32 "Uh oh" hahahaha. It's cool nowadays being able to see reaction videos. It's like getting to relive my reaction first hearing this stuff when it came out back in the 90s. Rushing home from the store with a CD, throwing on some headphones and sitting down to listen to a record start-finish for the first time. Great video
![Karma Police [Radiohead Reaction] First time hearing OK Computer - Let Down, Exit Music (For a Film)](/img/1.gif)
I love that you didn't pause the music to give your impressions mid song, you know how to listen to music!
Ikr pause for every sec like others its like i didn't listen for commentary 🙄
How can you say that there is only one way to listen to music
@@justinoseiowusu8721 uhhh... just listen to the actual song that doesn't make sense lol
Dude really just went "react time!" and did everything BUT react, and you're happy about it??? 😂😂😂 Wtf are you even talking about lol he basically just played music for you to pretend you were listening with him, if you wanna watch a dude listen to music and nothing else hang out with someone christ 💀
And them others use the excuse of their video getting taken down. So why's this one up still?
Never get tired of this song and most of Radiohead. Haunting magic.
If you listen to the words, it's the end of Romeo and Juliet. One of my favorite songs.
Wasn't this song actually recorded for that 90's Romeo and Juliet movie?
@@sammalla5238 yes. they have a couple of songs on the soundtrack, and I believe Talk Show Host (another solid reaction recommendation) was actually in the movie. I think Thom said they recorded this for use as the exit music for that movie, but it wasn't used. Hence, the title.
@@revevsetcandwhatnot8484 The song was in the end credits of that movie.
@@koll no, it wasn't. It was written for it, but Baz Lurhmann decided against using it. (It may have been added to foreign versions later, but it certainly wasn't in the original)
@@AKAtAGG It's the first song in the end credits of my English version DVD and I said nothing about the original.
Nothing better than the climax of this song fr.
One of my favorite songs of all time

SAME! I saw them after Paranoid Android was released. It was like a mystical magical spell.
Your "Oh My God!" reaction was exactly my reaction when I first heard that part of the song.
Thom Yorke's voice is otherworldly. Listen to full albums...
One of the most haunting songs ever written, one of my favourites as well
You should try Radioheads songs Man of War, Street Spirit and Fake Plastic Trees. They are awesome tunes
And Creep
Yup haunting
Fake Plastic Trees in one of the most underrated songs of all time - even more relevant now.
"How To Disappear Completely" it is also a great song, give it a change to listen to it.
Haunting and beautiful
Yeah, this song was for that Leonardo DiCaprio Romeo + Juliet movie. So at the end of the song he's talking about them killing themselves to be together and that he hopes everyone that tried to keep them apart "chokes".

This is the closest I’ll get to hearing this for the first time again. Love seeing the surprise on people’s faces whilst listening to Radiohead
One of my all time favorites. This song gives me chills every time! The atmosphere of this entire album is what convinced me that Radiohead is one of THE greatest bands of all time.
I literally can’t listen to that song and not get chills....every.....friggin......time
First time hearing this song....WOWWWW

@@jameshannagan7830 Thankyou i will 😃🤘
How to disappear completely
OK Computer is one of the greatest albums of all time.

I love it when great artists from different mediums collaborate. Radiohead giving the "OK" to Black Mirror for using this song in the "Shut Up and Dance" episode is an example. Its like a great show gets to acknowledge a great band and vice versa at the same time. The song really helps deliver the episode's knockout blow.
Episode 7 of Umbrella A. also uses this song well and Westworld uses Codex to great effect.
West World uses a couple as well their version of Codex was great.
Wow already posted that I guess I am baked.
How about Thom Yorke telling Scott Tenorman not to be a crybaby after being fed his own parents by his brother?
Everyone's got problems.
i love that fuzz when the drums kick in
3:16 still amazes me how the background sound sounds like what could be children playing in a park but it's just a guitar having strings being strokes up an down
Could have sworn it was a flock of birds chirping
@@thomaskla I thought that too. Like sea gulls at a beach. I suppose it all depends on the individuals imagination.
@@1966wilky yep, but the most disturbing part is that the noise was created by Jonny's guitar.
I thought it was a car driving 😂
Hauntingly Atmospheric 🔥 🔥
Wow, never thought this song would have a reaction video. Love it! This is one of those songs I forget about until something awry goes on in my life. This song is a gift, isn’t it?
The amazing Radiohead.
You got the most varied selection of reactions on RUclips. From my favorites, to things that aren't in my wheelhouse but that I can discover. Rock, indie, hip hop, experimental, old, new, well known or forgotten. appreciate you man!!! You got De la Soul, Radiohead and Edith Piaf... geez.. Keep on keeping on...

Same album - Climbing Up the Walls. Even more haunting if you can believe it
Totally agree.
This will be the album I listen to when I'm alone at work early tomorrow morn.
Thanks for the reminder.
Radiohead wrote this song for the movie Romeo and Juliet the one with Leo Dicaprio. This song didn't make it onto the soundtrack. If you think about Romeo and Juliet the song makes sense. I think this song ended up being more significant than the movie it was written for.
Everyone makes the stank face when that bass kicks in
This is the story of Romeo and Juliet - especially when heard in context of album - OK Computer, one of the greatest albums of all time - this song hits with such power - I hope you listen to it again down the line now that it has planted a seed in your brain because it has the ability to become one of those top unforgettable tracks of a lifetime.
Get ready for “let down” next, emotions continue
2:27 nothing compares to that absolute elation you can only get from great music. Great vid dude, hope all is well.
Very genuine reaction, I feel some reactors sort of force themselves to put on a facade, of them really messing with the tune they're listening to. You dissected it nicely at the end too, awesome stuff man.
Perhaps their most powerful song off this album
Radiohead. I got into them when OK Computer came out. My formative years in popular music were in 1995-1996-1997, and some great albums I listened in those years (not necessarily released then) are also
Homogenic (1997) by Björk
Blue (1971) by Joni Mitchell
Under the Pink (1994) by Tori Amos
Boys for Pele (1996) by Tori Amos
The Bends (1995) by Radiohead
Solace (1991) by Sarah McLachlan
The Downward Spiral (1994) by Nine Inch Nails... i can stop now.
Thank you! And thank you, Linda! It’s a tune I can listen to over and over and over. Favorite. 💜💜💜
How they used this song in Farther Ted was genius
This reminds me of Marketa Irglova's "If You Want Me." Also hauntingly beautiful. "Once" is such an underrated movie. Glen Hansard and Marketa Irglova. Also want to recommend "When Your Mind's Made Up" and "Lies" from Glen Hansard. He's got a real Cat Stevens vibe. Love them.
How To Dissapear Completely is their best song when it comes to the melancholic songs from them imo, I actually am a bigger fan of their more high tempo stuff
I see you have Pink Floyd and The Beatles in your background. And a touch of Beavix and Butthead. That's perfect for Radiohead ;)
Radiohead song reaction every month? I’m here for it tbh
Hope you take xare of yourself as well! :) love Radiohead ! Thanks for that video! Keep up the good work!
Bro what a great song to react to, well done
just a monstrous album
Good to see you wear a headset and not interrupt every few minutes, like many of them do. Your face during the song says enough, and the comments at the end are way better than keep interrupting the song.
Such a good tune. So dark, but so good.
As I read after I heard this beautiful haunting song the first time. Now my depression has depression. But I love this song.

Other cool post-rock bands are Godspeed You Black Emperor, Explosions in the Sky and Mogwai.
Or a live cut of them playing their show-closer: Popplagið

Man I love me some Sigur Ros. Seen them live twice. GYBE now there’s a band I haven’t listened to in forever. If you know Godspeed, I would assume you know about Sunny Day Real Estate.
@@Lawnboy81 Yeah, I love Sunny Day Real Estate although I prefer Jeremy Enigk's solo stuff. Would love to see a reaction to Shade and the Black Hat.
I play this song on guitar and sing it almost everyday. It makes me even sound like I know what I’m doing 😊
the climax of the song… goosebumps/tears every time
A suicide pack between two lovers with disapproving parents with a hosepipe to the car exhaust - yet it still sounds beautiful. Incredible. For a few years this band were untouchable.
Polyethylene and Reckoner (From the Basement) are worth a reaction if you haven’t yet.
Polyethylene. Haven't listened to that in a while
If someone requests this song for a reaction, they should mention that it was for a movie soundtrack. :)
Pure emotion…
Otherworldly Thom..... Such an emotional thing
@3:47 he got radioheaded
lmaooooooo
this is beautifull song from them
Not goin to lie 3;00 always gets me
Yoooooo Radiohead are deep. Lots of music to dissect. Top band! ❤️
Nice 💗.
"...today, wee escape, wee escape"...I sing that every morning when taking a p1ss
For something different, maybe try Whip It by Devo. Or, if you've reacted to that already, maybe Cars by Gary Numan or The Metro by Berlin.
In case you're interested, "How To Disappear Completely" is regarded by Thom Yorke their lead songwriter as the greatest song they've ever written. But you have to appreciate complex music. It's a masterpiece but in a very unconventional way.
Radiohead is great. I love all songs on OK Computer
This whole album is incredible. It should be taught in schools ffs lol. I live in the town Radiohead are from, it's so chilled.
Looove Radiohead. Try 'wierd fishes' by them. It's a banger
'sup G - I'm just here engaging without anything special to say. I've been subbed for a minute, but RUclips forgets that, so let's hope this improves both of our algorithms (fuck knows why this popped into my feed randomly, but I'm with it). I love how you don't chase trends - do you man. Peace.
Beautiful song! Awesome great song to react to. Karma police, Just, The Bends are other awesome great songs to check out if you haven't already!
💜💜💜💜💜
Me inscrevi por causa do quadro dos Beatles!
Now, to provide some perspective: It’s written from the perspective of Romeo to Julluette.
Bands like Muse built an entire career replicating this style.
Just blissful :)
This song and Weird Fish are top 2 best radiohead songs in my opinion. Don't wanna discredit anyone else...but I want those songs played while I die!
I am jealous of this man
Two star crossed lovers in Verona, need I say more?
OK Computer, the first time, was life changing.
Listen to the RadioDread version 👌
Watch the episode of Black Mirror this was in
Immediately followed by Let Down
There u go folks, exit music for a film "a little melancholy" lol
Cool

Kenny you was looking at kids.
Romeo ❤️
Ayy nice one
It's like Romeo & Juliet - They commit suicide which is the "Exit" or at least that's my interpretation.
It was written for Romeo and Juliet - the one starring Leonardo DiCaprio.
One thing I feel sorry for reactors, and kids of this generation is they never get to listen to albums from start to finish. So many albums have themes, and are roller coasters of emotion.
I think it's a "content strategy" for most of them. They rather break the album up into parts to maximize their content. Me personally it's time lol I literally get interrupted so much it's insane, so individual songs work better for my lifestyle at this present time, Appreciate your feedback family!
3:45 Why you're all here...
Damn Kendrick,
You all know Thom has recent stuff right?
This song is about the finale of Romeo and Juliet
Try the Manic Street Preachers mate. Only band that can match Radiohead.
Paranoid Android!!!!!
Sorry you didn't get context about it being for a movie
At 2:32 "Uh oh" hahahaha. It's cool nowadays being able to see reaction videos. It's like getting to relive my reaction first hearing this stuff when it came out back in the 90s. Rushing home from the store with a CD, throwing on some headphones and sitting down to listen to a record start-finish for the first time. Great video
