No joke, this Bodies Laughing one was on Colin’s ‘In Rainbows’ studio blackboard photo. It started as another Radiohead tune like Skirting on the Surface & Open the Floodgates (and probably a couple others).
Thom playing an Ed O’Brien signature strat!
looks like it!
Ed would love this stage too :)
He seems to be making good use of the sustain on the guitar solos
more likely he is just playing one of ed's actual guitars lol
@@autoloon yep, looks like a protype as the black sustainer pickups were the only ones available until EOB's were mass-produced
This is perfect for Thom. Playing small venues, with his strongest instrumentalist and a new and exiting drummer. Simplifying everything by operating in a 3 peace band, and not having to play those old Radiohead tunes over and over, nor having those high expectations for every release. Now it's all about the moment, the art and being productive.
Primavera Sound is not precisely a “small venue”
@@ecg8510 I mean it's relative. It is small compared to the 10-20k arenas that Radiohead would regularly play at, or 50-100k crowds they would often play at festivals being the headliners.
good comment i like it
@@Drenwickification i was in the first weekend of primavera and we would all sum up to 110k easily, and they played in the biggest scenario that fits around 30k people since its 2 big scenarios put together in a huge space. so if you think that a 10-20k arena is remarkably bigger than their primavera stage youre definitely wrong
@@ecg8510 Headline of a festival, Primavera Sound is not. He meant relatively.
This gives me a phased-out Knives Out vibe. Love it. Also man, that solo definitely shows off the amazingness that is the EOB Strat.
yeah totally, that’s exactly what I was thinking last week when I was listening to it, Knives out part II!!!
I have to say, I love how this version sounds so different from studio album version. The studio version is excellent, and this one is too.
I wouldn't be surprised if we got another album in less than a year
Although I know these guys LOVE sitting on songs for years, but these new ones sound pretty much finished.
@@jeanmmckenzie true but the songs from first album all sounded finished when they performed them on the online Glastonbury in 2021 but then it took a year for the album to come out. I would love another album soon but I’m not expecting it this year tbh
@@Drenwickification not this year for sure, but I'm thinking something like late spring - early summer 2023
I actually would be surprised. Unless its some Kid A/Amnesiac type thing.
I hope so@@jeanmmckenzie The Smile has grown a life of it's own. We are Blessed. They on a roll.🎵😻
p.s. Just remembering that pic of Thoms face on a bread roll! ☺
This sounds like Thom finally created a psychedelic jazz band he always wanted. I'm REALLY hoping they release another album soon, cuz I'm expecting these new tracks on a b-sides album at the end of the year. Please Please Please Please!
right-click the screen and select "Loop". You're welcome.
I was a little sad that Radiohead may never come back but you know the essence of it is perfectly captured with the smile, hope they keep going there’s so many different styles in it too
why a b-sides album?
@@lupa3041 cuz I’m selfish and want these new tracks now?
@@MissHeathen I’m pretty sure there was only 1 song that didn’t make it onto the first album, Just Eyes and Mouth. Most of the songs they’ve played that weren’t on the album were written while touring, so it wouldn’t really be a b-side album.
I love how Jonny and Thom alternate bass guitar and 6-string guitar duties for this project. They both look like they are having so much fun. Counting the days until the NYC leg of the tour!
FANTASTIC!
They literally did a live studio fade-out at the end.
exactly my thoughts, i was listening in the background and was like "hold up!", amazing
Another « new » one.
The Smile is contagious.
2023:
A new virus spread like wild the year that every thing changed.
It was called peace and love
2022:
Wouldn’t it be nice 😐
😵💫
Beautiful thought @@Pi-Mae We can make it happen 😻☮🍄🎵
@@suzycat2026 🫶🏽😻🍄
🌊🏄🏽♂️🤙🏽 rad-a-tewd
I'm really mourning the loss of this version.
You’re not alone mate, trust me
And me 😢
It got the videotape treatment. Damn it, oh well. At least we got the video y'know?
@@seamishmusicthis truly is a videotape moment
Me too. ❤😢
The best thing about The Smile is how spontaneous and creative they get to make the music they create... it reminds me of the time of Hail To The Thief where they themselves comment that a song came out every week... 🎧
It's hard to imagine that Radiohead wrote and recorded Kid A, Amnesiac and Hail to the Thief from 1999-2003. Three different, acclaimed records in four years! Knowing Radiohead as they are now, it seems insane to think they managed Kid A/Amnesiac and the challenges there, toured both albums through 2001, then came back in 2002 with like 15 new songs.
@@codycooke4461 it's even more incredible when you consider that these guys are still coming out with stuff that's arguably just as good nowadays after all that
i like how johnny is using the same bass colin uses
And Thom’s using Ed’s signature guitar
Can definitely hear more than a little of Knives Out in that bass line..
No matter if theres missing 3 members, the smile is still clearly a spinoff of radiohead
Absolutely cannot get enough of this track, ever since they played it live in Brooklyn.
Sounds so Krautrocky! Especially the bass. Reminds me of Talk Show Host and all their other attempts to sound like a 70s band.
Never really listened to krautrock but this kinda reminds me of dollars and cents. Is that how krautrock sounds like?
@@snagglesnorf Not exactly. Dollars And Cents has a more jazzy feel to it, and this one is closer to Talk Show Host by Radiohead and Vitamin C by the German Krautrock band Can (you can listen to it, or you may know it, as well; also I'd recommend you to listen to another track by them called Splash, and their main hits). Though, Can draws heavily from Jazz music as well - at least, in terms of performing the songs and overall chaotic presence happening on stage.
@@snagglesnorf Ful Stop on A Moon shaped pool is quite Kraut Rocky
@@michaelpurdieabbott7743 came here to say this
Moonshake by Can
We need a studio version!!
We're getting one!
This sounds a lot like The Cure, in the best way possible. Looking forward to hearing this one recorded.
Came here to check it before listening to the new version played first in March 2024 in Belgium. Cheers!
Is Radiohead ever coming back after what we see!?, this is a never ending source of songs, Thom and Johnny inspired as if they started a band for the first time. Incredible
I think Radiohead is done, I don’t think Thom would ever announce that. As long as Thom and Jonny keep playing together, the new album is very nuanced material
@@hippiecheezburger5457 Lmao maybe Thom would never announce that, but the rest of the band? OFC we’d hear something from them. And for god sake, Ed already said recently on Instagram that Radiohead is not dead, they’re just waiting for the time to be right. They’ve been busy doing their own shit.
Radiohead isn’t dead, there’s just going to be a bigger gap between albums going forward.
@@hippiecheezburger5457 yh Radiohead isn’t dead but yh they’re getting older and are gonna have longer breaks from now on
Yeah, no. I think radiohead is done. thom and Jonny seem to be in a creative boom right now. And I'm all for it
@@louiscocksman7114 ffs what's wrong with people. things have to be DEAD or ALIVE!! what's the status doc??!! is he alive? is he in purgatory??!! noooo! purgatory is not something I can easily categorize!!!
also for the record...dont worry guys...i can honestly say Radiohead will never be dead. even if they stop making music, they're mates ffs
Love this version, think it's better than the official version that just came out...it's the power of the deep V top...
Thom using the ed o'brien signature strat is so cool
I can't wait for a studio version of this track!
So far, all the live versions of these new Smile songs are leagues ahead the Studio versions. Honestly, all their songs sound groovier and alive when played live. I recall being unimpressed with the first Smile album, until I saw them live. The songs truly come alive. It's a shame that in the Studio versions, they've been unable to capture that energy.
It's a quite different song with the slower acoustic guitar and melancholic backing vocals actually i've come around to like it for what it is, however I remember hearing this song live and it was fucking sublime so maybe one day they'll make a studio version in this style.
This song had so much potential 😭
They may release a groovier version of Bodies Laughing in another album, kinda like what they did with Morning Bell, there are two versions of the same song in the discography
man, this riff is insanely good, i am fucking addicted to it
This one's GREAT.
Major key happy Thom and groovy bass Jonny is where it's at
Major key modCheck
Ed O'Brian is also somewhat present as Thom is playing his Fender signature strat!
basso sublime, chitarra magica, batteria superba
So sad this wasnt on the new album. What a track!
Maybe for the Radiohead new album 🤷🏿♀️
@@Rivers.of_tears or a third smile album ;)
Now we know it’ll be the closing track on the new album Oct 24.
This live version I like more than the chilled out version that appeared on Cutouts tbh
@@jimbo4658 I mean which versions aren’t better live? I do like what we got though!
This is incredible.
Love the solos!! Love just about everything about this tbh, can’t wait for The Smile’s 2nd LP!
YES LETS GOOOO. THIS IS GOING TO BE ONE OF THE BEST TRACKS ON LP02
LP03*
@@jr9083HOW DID YOU KNOW
Love this song, can't wait for them they to release it. I discovered and listening the song for the first time at TW Classic in Belgium (on June 25), and it was magic, I loved Thom's guitar solo ✨
Amazing outro for the album
Love the playful energy to this one.
This could've fit somewhere in the middle of Wall of Eyes 👌🏻
AHHH WHY IS THIS NOT ON LP2!!!!!
please god let there be a studio version
im hoping either a single or a radiohead track in the future, because it's a really damn solid track
Its on Cutouts :)
just heard the new version of BL...
I still prefer this version over it still but it will def grow on me. Already kinda has
loved the fade out!
Seriously i wasnt expecting this mindblowing and inviting song...sounds pure radiohead .
We need new album!!!
We all came here missing this version...
I wish I had friends who liked The Smile
lets be friends then 🤝
I’m crying, I’ve been waiting ages for the studio version and the groove is gone 😭😭
this version has a completely different vibe, but the studio version is amazing also, just a different song almost :)
@itayadler there is no almost, they are two different songs in my mind. The only connection is the drums and even those fail to give me anything to latch onto.
If they would've kept the bass as it was, I would've accepted the acoustic and the little melody interludes instead of the chaos of this versions "solos" (not really solos, but don't know how else to describe them).
Sad, but whatever, happy for the people who originally despised this song and like the milquetoast studio take.
@@danzargy the psychedelic solo thom hits here is so good, I really love this part. and the epic bass solo the johnny hits it off with
Studio version is a grower. The perfect Halloween song.
Reminds me of "Knives Out" a bit. I love it!
My favorite out of all songs by the smile so far, just head over heels in love 🥰
Great song, great performance.
That bass line reminds me of early Cure. What a great sound.
The Holy Hour from the album Faith?
the bass-line kill me 🔥
Perfect...
I love this! Sounds so In Rainbows or TKOL I cannot wait for the studio version
This exist since In Rainbows,at least the name.
amazing workload... those two legends still make progress(and so musical definition of them is still uncompleted)
And this band is just, alive in the present with such a great energy. I'm happy to live with them in the same era.
Totally! And they've already got a 2nd album in the works.
My favourite song
Am I the only person that prefers the studio version? This one is great too though.
You're not!
merci beaucoup
those changes are so sick. fuck, this is so good, dude...
In an alternate timeline, this version of the song was the opener for cutouts...
I love this! Reminds me of Knives Out
that natural fade out was next level
Guys! You're just incredible!
can't wait for this to release after 7 years 🥺🥺
beautiful sync of Moonshake and Don't Say No
Тоже напоминает CAN
They are on another level...
Man this is brilliant! Can’t wait for this one to come out
Great performance 🤯😍
WOW THIS IS MY FIRST TIME HEARING THIS WTFFF
Addictive!! Love to see a band enjoying themselves so much, especially Thom. It's like he has found himself again!
Damn at this rate we'll have a new album in a few days😂
magnifique!
I hope they release a high quality recording of People on Balconies
:)
Was at their Glasgow gig was something you 😅
Genial!! me encanta ❤️
Thom learned his lessons from O'brien on creating a constant atmosphere with guitar
Man when they played this, and Thom pulled out ed’s signature. It was so crazy
This song will be one of the best from LP2, no doubt
And they decided this song wasn't good enough... we got YORKED again...
@@stefanopellegrini7094fr this one and just eyes and mouth 😭. Unless they changed the names to I Quit and You Know Me which I doubt unfortunately…
@@CarterKeberdlebut then there’s also colors fly that got cut too, this could’ve been an 11 song album but instead it’s 8
@@TheChasedanger I think they honestly are saving some of those for a potential Radiohead Album.
@@CarterKeberdle hopefully because I loved those 3 songs
Damn they really did the videotape thing again
I'm working on a reconstruction of an Videotape (Bonnaroo), as a studio track. Any idea to the specifics in regards to instruments/pedals they used on In Rainboes?
Sono nati per la musica.
Love this song, lyrics & tune fit together so well.
Makes me feel happy. 😊
Thom seems so happy & free, wow that psychedelic guitar solo hit the spot.
Makes me happy to see him so free in the moment.🙃
Bless Thom Yorke & The Smile.❤️
this version is light years ahead of the album version. That bassline!
fr
Agreed
@@seanwoolven I was wondering why they simplified it in the album version
@@skywipe1949 It may have been written first, then they did a live version at some point and it stuck.
the bassline reminds me of moonshake by can so much. wouldnt be surprised if it was an inspiration
2:48 A clear footage of Thom Yorke trying to slap a fly
Visually he emulates the vibe concisely imo
Outstanding. Amazing Song. Total Pleasure
Agree! Saw them at Roundhouse London.... superb.
Love it !!!
Wow!!
LP2 finna be insane
Perfect.
this song shows that Ed O'brien will always be a critical element of Thom's artistry
How so
@@roryturner9773 pretty sure Thom is using Ed's fender signature strat
@@sheetcutters I was wondering if you were pointing to that or criticising The Edless music
genios!
Amazing!
Love
why new album lacks this one. it's good!
Can't wait to hear this in Chicago
❤❤❤❤ Loving this band, Johnny and Thom seem revitalised and are on a creative roll. Best thing they’ve done since In Rainbows. Gutted they didn’t save all these great new songs for Radiohead but I spose that’s actually the point, the freedom they’ve got to really express themselves, it’s wonderful and long may it continue!!!❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
Ohhh, nicee! Thanks!!!
este tema y teleharmonic faser son 2 canciones totalmente de lo mas brillante que escuche!!! la calidad de las melodías, la estructura, los arreglos, etc etc Se viene un segundo disco maravilloso!!!
please dont leave us hanging for the next 10 years
So amazing! Spotify please
They are morphing sll the time!
They are morphing into the Slime
I'm telling my kids this is the only version
