That "if I could be who you wanted" breaks my heart every time.
Fun fact: When they recorded this song they were having difficulties in deciding how to end it. So they all took a break, ran to the pub for a few pints, and when they returned they recorded the album version in one take. As soon as Thom finished the vocals he immediately burst into tears.
@@desrever1138 from what I read they went to a Jeff Buckley concert and that inspired the band to make it a slow melancholy song and Thom to sing it this way with his falsetto because they were having problems making the song
Radiohead's music is art, like paintings; So many layers.
Few songs are perfect musically, lyrically, and vocally. This is one of them.
Portishead - "Glory Box".
Great shout. 'Roads' and 'Wandering Star' are also brilliant.
I've previously suggested in Jay and Amber's comments for some Portishead (and also some PJ Harvey for 'Female Friday') so hopefully they'll check them out soon.
@@dougr5187 They could react to PJ Harvey & Thom Yorke's "The Mess We're In"
@@thisniceladyDefinitely!
yes!!!!
Beth Gibbons is my #1 female vocalist!
“He used to do surgeries for girls in the 80s, but gravity always wins” has to be one of the most unexpected and most spot on lyrics in recent memory
Thom's voice is absolutely amazing! This track is a favorite of mine.
Glad you returned to Radiohead. Many have "The Bends" as their favorite album though there are a few other great ones. I was in love with a girl many years ago who loved Radiohead and this was her favorite song. She passed on a while back and I rarely allow myself to listen to this track , I broke my rule to see you guys react to it though still hurts to hear it. The power of music eh?
The Bends is a phenomenal album...if you havent heard the song Just....amazing song which goes along with one of the most intriguing music videos you have ever seen
The Bends made us love the genius of Radiohead. OK Computer confirmed it.
In Rainbows is their best imo, tho the bends is certainly a masterpiece. They should react to “Nude”
qqqq1 qww2som de 1qwq1 QQ
Kid A for me
This one's pretty easy. We all present a "fake plastic" self to the world, and man can it be exhausting.
That's one of the beauties of getting older, you no longer care which freeing.
Eleanor _Your comment hits the meaning of this songs so we'll. And johnglues commet is so true, I struggled to fit in all my teenage years and now at 55 I realise I fitted in fine as everyone was the same awkward person full of self doubt and anxiety. Some just hide it better. Much luv Gaz.x
Thom Yorke's vocals are simply stunning, beautiful & otherworldly
"Exit Music (from a film)" should be your next reaction. It'll blow you away. Much love from England 🏴
Please also "Nude". It's a masterpiece that took them 10 years to perfect before releasing.
Exit music is of those songs which can REALLY hook you to this band, crucial listen
Ikr? "Exit Music (From A Film)" is one of those songs that always ends with tears streaming down my face, no matter how many times I hear it; partly from the classic-yet-universal story and the emotions connected to that, but mostly from the beauty and artistry of the instruments, voice, and composition. It's such a perfect little gem of a song, weirdly simple while still being deep, emotional, and impactful. I like most of Radiohead's songs but I legit LOVE "Exit Music."
Definitely check out Exit if you dug this one ✌🏼
That's the Radiohead that sometimes we all need...
Just by Radiohead will be a Jay favorite
The video is amazing.
I never get tired of Radiohead. Timeless, beautiful, sad and legendary!
This song is about a plastic surgeon. "He used to do surgery on the girls in the 80s, but gravity always wins." And about all the fakeness in the world, that's what wears him out.
Thats only one verse of the song which ends with it wears him out then the lyrics move on from that- if I had to say what I thought it was about I’d say it’s ultimately about “more and more people pretending to be something they’re not (like plastic trees) and the need and longing for a genuine relationship in a world filled with materialistic shallow self centred, enpty people who are more concerned of their external image than finding anything genuine.
I never see anyone on here reacting to Street Spirit (Fade Out) from the same album, which I find surprising because it's a hauntingly beautiful song with an equally stunning video. Give it a go, why don't you.
JayVeeTV did Street Spirit and loved it. I'm also surprised that one hasn't caught on more...yet!
Really!? I search by upload date for years every week or so and I feel street spirit gets a lot of coverage! Every reactor should hear it though 😂
Yes! I love this song ❤
For some reason that song always reminds me of the Bunyip song from Dot and the Kangaroo...I think just the starting notes, maybe just me but that terrified me as a child so I think Street Spirit has an even bigger impact!
Amazing song, have you ever heard The Darkness' rock version of Street Spirit, an interesting cover but doesn't touch the original
Haunting, yet wonderfully soothing 😌
And fun as hell to play on guitar!
An amazing song, from a fabulous album.
Thom is pronounced Tom 🙂
Yep, Jonny gave him the h from his name.
@@lk-music- His full name is Thomas. That’s why it’s Thom Yorke.
@@Liofa73 lol, woooosh
I guess they've never heard the name thomas😂
Heh heh...
Secretly,
I always say 'Tom' out loud,
but in my head it's always 'Thom'.
By far my favorite Radiohead album; The Bends. This song is a showstopper.
"gravity always wins"
Indeed. The futility of it all.
I’m 57 losing my job, in debt, and miserable. I have loved Radiohead since the beginning, and I cannot explain it but their sadness and introspection releases me and heals me simultaneously. Listening again for the first time.
Beautifiul as always. Radiohead is one of those bands that is consistently overlooked. A person has to be able to face and cope with the epic flow of emotions that this band evokes in them. Sometimes their music makes you find yourself soaring with wonder and smiling with joy while crying from heartache all at the same time. A brilliant blend of music, lyrics and vocals.
Overlooked? They’re one of the most popular bands in the world.
@@starlit_hawser11 My bad. God forbid I feel they should be elevated to an even higher status than they are given in relation to some other bands that are more talked about and celebrated. I didn’t mean to say something that was so opposite to your world view. I’ll remember to check with you first before I post anything again. Again, my apologies for my dis to Radiohead.
@@davidchapman2213 Awesome! Thanks for your apology.
@@starlit_hawser11 You bet! LOL
Some amazing lyrics -
She lives with a broken man
A cracked polystyrene man
Who just crumbles and burns
He used to do surgery
For girls in the eighties
But gravity always wins
Some of Thom's best lyrics. Beat me to it.
@@budmaynard5952Yep. Me too. So powerful. 👍
It's about the fakeness and insecurity bred by corporate capitalism
I’ve always wondered what a crack polystyrene man is 🤔
@@Inequities Any fake person
My fav Radiohead song, though "Karma Police" is a close second.
Meanwhile, please look up Travis, a Scottish band. Fran Healey's vocals are so unique and the songs are poetry. 😉 (Look up Travis's Storytellers episode to get that joke.) I think Amber would absolutely adore "Turn" and "Flowers in the Window".
Also, my husband and I saw Radiohead open for REM in 1995. A hell of a show!
Travis got a raw deal in the press after their initial success. They’re a fantastic band. Beautifully written songs.
It’s Let Down for me…the build up and release are exceptional
@@DementedDaisy With the Cranberries? Milton Keynes?
FACTS! The Man Who is wonderful! (and damn, how is it 25 years old already?!?!)
Such a great time to be a teenager in the UK when this album came out. Music at this time was so amazing. The scene in London was fantastic and I feel so blessed that I was part of the inner circle of it all. Seeing all these amazing bands and meeting and hanging out with so many cool people. Great memories 😊
I agree. It makes me so nostalgic for the mid 90s and britpop when I was young and living in London.
Easily my favourite Radiohead song. Yorke's voice is just absolutely gorgeous
Love Thom’s voice. One of my favorite Radiohead songs.
This one and No Surprises have the power to transport me into myself, just shut the entire world off and drift into feelings and sensations.
This has me in tears every time I hear it. ❤
It has just got me again.
Radiohead is one of the greatest bands ever. Thom Yorke's lyrics and vocals with Jonny Greenwood's guitar and the entire band's compositions are just so good.
A request for consideration:
“Ship of Fools” by World Party (1986) this would be in memoriam of Karl Wallinger who passed away a couple weeks ago; World Party is essentially his solo project; he was in The Waterboys; you would have seen him playing keyboards and background vocals on “Whole of the Moon”
I second this👍
World Party was great and Ship Of Fools was fantastic but let's face it, Jay and Amber are really effin dumb and they only care about views and likes. No way they would react to this
Oh wow, I missed that about Wallinger. How sad. I'll have to dig out Goodbye Jumbo and give it another blast as a tribute. I love "Ship Of Fools", "Put The Message In The Box" and my personal favourite, "Way Down Now" - if Jay and Amber were to review any of those it would be great!
This song is perfect.
Like evey song from The Bends, it's absolutely amazing.
Thanks Jay and Amber to reacting to my favourite band. If you want more haunting beauty "Street Spirit (Fade out) " should be next on your list. If you want their rock side "Just" will show you their versatility and both have videos as deep as the songs. "Paranoid Android" has beauty and rock and all 3 songs will blow your minds in different ways. You've only scratched the surface of a deep, deep rabbit hole.
I agree with both of those choices. "Just" would be a great one for J&A to experience a little more of a rock vibe in Radiohead's sound (and I think Jay, in particular, would really love the guitar), and "Street Spirit (Fade Out)" is just beautiful and haunting (as well as being a personal favorite).
"And if I could be who you wanted
If I could be who you wanted
All the time
All the time"
That's soul music at it's best. You can imagine Marvin Gaye singing that.
Their masterpiece is “How to Disappear Completely”. Amazing
I love the church organ music in this. Such a simple affecting song. Their albums The Bends and OK Computer are just incredible. Music you would want in your top 10 if you were isolated on an island.
My all-time fave radiohead track ❤
Seen them live when they were touring off the back of that album, great gig.
Can anyone say jealous?
"how to disappear completely" is one of their most haunting/emotional sounding songs and should be your next reaction to radiohead❤
I've heard this song hundreds of times but this time it made me cry . It must have been Amber's reaction .
Imagine being able to sing like Thom Yorke, a gift from the Gods.
I’ve came to known this song back in the early 90’s, there was an powerful inserting about Down’s Syndrome, homeless and respect with fake plastic trees playing in the background during commercial breaks on tv, the song was “lost” in my memory for quite some years, finally found it in the mid 10’s.
If anyone is curious just search for Radiohead Carlinhos, unfortunately the subs are only in Brazilian Portuguese
Very nice vocals
I think you have already heard that it’s: If I could be who you wanted….not if I could be who I wanted to be. Makes it even more heartbreaking. Love Radiohead and this song.
Thanks for getting back to Radiohead Jay and Amber. Such an important band at an important time, much like their influence, The Smiths. I would highly highly recommend you do "Nude" or " Weird Fishes" off of 'In Rainbows" to really hear their genius. Keep up the absolutely great reviews! Cheers
God I love Radiohead!!!
His voice is so moving, it just reaches in and twists the soul
Another great British band from the same era well-worth checking out is SUEDE (often called The London Suede in the USA). Start with "The Wild Ones" if you liked this song. Brett Anderson is one of the best singers, period!
Suede is great
I got the call that my Beloved Grandma Nonna had just passed, got in the car to head over and this song was on. I cried like never before.. This song will always be special to me.. Thank you for this!
This song makes me cry sometimes. I’m not even sure why.
This is their best track imo
I got to see Radiohead open for REM in Dallas back in the 90s. Such an amazing show.
I know many Radiohead fans prefer OK Computer etc but for me The Bends does it especially when I'm in a particular mood. I love it's layers of depth.
From his initial expression, I was really expecting J to say, "This is too slow for me." I'm glad he didn't and I'm happy to be pleasantly surprised.
The background in the sonic landscape of this song was the beginning of the sound that (I feel) hits an all time peak in Faust Arp from In Rainbows. And I’m not just talking about a Radiohead peak. I’m talking about ALL MUSIC ANYWHERE. Genius is the only suitable adjective.
Anything from The Bends and OK Computer is beautiful
"BURN THE WITCH," "EVERYTHING IN ITS RIGHT PLACE," and "KNIVES OUT" are your next RADIOHEAD Brilliant journeys... and if you're feeling very adventurous, "THE NATIONAL ANTHEM"... which is AMAAAAAAAZING!!! Can't go wrong!
They showed up 15 years early. They still got credit, but they were WAY ahead of their time.
I so love this song. It's all about faking it until it works or walk away from it, especially in a romantic relation. Thom Yorke has so much emotion in this song that it gets me every time. Thank you for reacting to it.
Radiohead is not really bizarre or different to people that dig Alternative music or have for a long time . Like myself 😊
I forgot about this one! Probably the first RadioHead song I ever heard.
Such a great tune and Thom Yorke has such an amazing voice!
For years, I always thought 99 Luftballons has been my favourite song.... but having finally heard this song again but in a new light, I think Radiohead has pipped Nena to the gold medal.
You might be ready for Radiohead's "Nude" - Live From The Basement. Beautifully haunting. The instruments make space for Thom's voice. A lesson in musical restraint.
Many GenX artists of the 90s and early 2000s had this melancholy point of view in their music.
This is my favorite Radiohead song, so happy you guys reacted and gave it the love it deserves.
One of my favorite songs of theirs, and that’s saying a lot, as they have an insanely great discography… thematically, they are similar to PinkFloyd when it comes to themes of isolation derived from technology, blind consumerism, thoughtless following, etc. “The Bends’ is the 90’s “Wish you were here” and “OkComputer’ is the 90’s “DarkSide of the Moon”
It wears you in... it wears you in... Fake plastic trees Radiohead ❤
If you dive deeper into Radiohead, you will discover how deep the rabbit hole goes and yes, it goes deep.
Probably my favourite Radiohead song.
Thank you for listening.
Squeeze - Up The Junction
Portishead - Glory Box
Radiohead - Karma Police
Radiohead - Paranoid Android
Ladytron - Destroy everything you touch
Bat for Lashes - What’s a girl to do?
God i love this tune. Thom Yorke is an amazing writer. The 90s really has the best music other than the 60s!
The 70’s is the best. Great mix of genres.
@@jamesdamiano8894 1965-1978 is tops followed by the 90s just my opinion but the early 60s stuff was important but sounds pretty dated now.
@@jameshannagan4256 of course it’s all subjective. I love all decades of music. My formultive years being born in the 60’s but basically growing up in the 70’s makes me partial to that decade. I wasn’t trying to start an argument or saying you didn’t know what you were talking about. Just giving my opinion also.
@@jamesdamiano8894 I'm with you for the most part i'm almost 60 so I kind of got the 60s, 70s, 80s and 90s and forward. I pretty much was in agreement with you but the first 5 years of the 60s were pretty bad that was my point. I think Radiohead is up there with bands like Pink Floyd, Zepplin and the Beatles they are the last great band of the band era the music industry has changed so much and bands are kind of history.
@@jameshannagan4256 yeah at least in the 60’s through the 80’s and maybe some 90’s you had consistently good bands and music. Now a days I can’t think of any overall good new bands. Just the holdovers from previous times. You might occasionally get a decent song but that’s about it.
I LOVE me some RH and I have a crush on Thom LOL for years. After Chris Cornell, he is my favorite male vocalist.
RH is one of the most talented and innovative bands.
I think you guys, especially you Jordan, are ready for the luscious, sophisticated "House of Cards" from the In Rainbows album. I already know Amber will love it.
A Chicago tune that was very different them and beautiful .Color my world ,is one of my favorite ones
So glad you're continuing your Radiohead journey! This one is near the top of my favorite songs by them! 🎉
Yes Squad!!! Love this song so much and loved seeing you both fall in love with it too- please please give Weird Fishes/Arpeggi and Jigsaw Falling Into Place a play, both songs will blow your minds I guarantee it, love to you both x
Thanks Jay and Amber for today's ethereal journey!
You all need to listen to a live version of this song. The guitar!
Something you guys will definitely enjoy: "Lover, You Should've Come Over" by Jeff Buckley (specially the live version). When Radiohead was trying to record "Fake Plastic Trees" in 1994 they were having a hard time with it so they took a break and attended a Jeff Buckley gig in London. Jeff Buckley's vocals left Thom Yorke so stunned that he went back to the studio, recorded a take of the song with nothing but an acoustic guitar and wept afterwards. The band then overdubbed their parts on top of it and that's the version you've just heard.
OK Computer, The Bends, Kid A, Hail to the Thief, and In Rainbows are 5 of my top 10 GOAT albums, and there are great tunes on all their other albums too. Many bands today make great singles, but Radiohead is one of the last bands that make great albums.
I’m a Radiohead fanatic, saw them twice live and they’re the two best concerts I’ve ever been to. If I had to pick my favorite song from them, this is it.
Tear comes down when he says it wears me out…
Imagine hearing this album for the first time on CD back when it was released. Incredible. Their last real "rock" album. OK Computer kind of changed everything for them. Their musical maturity over their careers is pretty amazing. Please play more of their songs on your channel. 🙏 🍻
Ok Computer is bad ass.
"Karma Police" is amazing
YES!!!!!!! Finally getting to my fave Radiohead song! I love this one so much. The whole "Bends" album is flawless, but this one (and "Black Star") just kill me. So happy you got to hear this tune!
You probably won’t see this but you guys should react to Billy Joel - New York State of mind live at the old whistle test. You’ll love it
Or live with Tony Bennett 😢
One of the most important bands to come from the 90s. Thank you for getting around to this beautiful song.
It’s been decades and this song still gives me goosebumps. It’s really a perfect song.
Every time in the middle of the song when the guitars kick in and the vocals soar all I can picture is Ethan Hawke running through a city at night in the rain to find Winona Ryder who is sitting in her window seat watching the storm so they can both tell each other they were wrong and the end credits can start because that’s the most 90’s thing I can think of.😂
"It's going to be emotional" - This is a song I listened to over and over after a tough life event. Thom York is the voice that could carry me to the next world...
Incredible band! The sounds are so incredible and York's vocals are stunning.
Thank you so much for playing this, it took me back to places and emotions that mean a lot.
If you are going to play another Radiohead song then Street Spirit (Fade Out) would be so appreciated x
Fell in love with this song back when it came out around 1995!
This is such a beautiful song... I have no other words.
One of my all time favourite RH songs..just beautiful
I read an article where Thom Yorke said he saw Jeff Buckley in concert and it completely changed the way he approached his vocals. So yeah.. Check out Jeff Buckley.
Such a good song, so soothing and emotional. It's one of those songs where you can take a break from a busy day and just float.
My favorite song from them. So good.
