This song is a reflection on how fake and plastic society can be. My favorite line; " He used to do surgery, for girls in the 80s, but gravity always wins"
Well, listen to all the lyrics on Cure's Wish.."We Used to be so close together, how did we get so far apart?".. song "Apart".. "I thought this love would last forever.." Still love this song as well, and the mentioned lyric is gold.
Best song ever!!!! Radiohead fan here since the 90's. I use to listen to this song every morning before school. 🎶 And if i could be, who you wanted, if I could be who you wanted.. all the time, all the time..🎶🎶
I play this song on my guitar at home often. And when I sing those lines I always feel like I am singing those to my wife. I mean she loves me but...you know...time changes things. I don't know why i shared that.
Radiohead is a great Rabbithole to get lost in... especially6 if you listen to their earlier stuff and than the later stuff... Both amazing stuff but so very different
This was from 1995, and was their last melody-driven album. Their next album, "OK Computer" in 1997 was more experimental rhythms and is considered to have killed off the musical trend known as "Britpop" overnight, and permanently changed the direction of rock. It's fair to say that bands like Muse and Coldplay have borrowed heavily from their sound.
Fun Fact: at 4:28 of THIS video you can briefly see a young Norman Reedus (yes THAT Norman Reedus) pushing and playing with a shopping cart. He was a model at the time and this is obviously well before he became famous.
Beautiful song! Always loved this piece. Should try out Street Spirit (Fade Out) - last song from the same album as this. The video is superb. Bit more of a build-up than this song. Other notable songs to check out from Radiohead: Karma Police, Paranoid Android, Lucky, Idioteque, Everything In It's Right Place, Reckoner. That will get you started...
Radio Head songs have such a deeper undertone to them, close ur eyes, picture the lyrics, play his story in ur mind... Try Nirvana unplugged in New York
Honest question/answer? How many hours do you put into making your hair look like you don't care how your hair looks? Pretty sure this song is about YOU.
Great song. First song that ever turned my head to Radiohead. But it's still shallow. Check out 'Pyramid Song' and see if you can follow the time signature.
#ScribeCash you should check out "Paranoid Android", "Exit Music For A Film", "Videotape", and I'd highly recommend "Street Spirit (fade out)", I think you would really dig that one musically, vocally, lyrically, and visually.
The song Creep is what they're most famous for, which has been covered by a ton of other bands. For something that rocks a little more, check out Paranoid Android, There There, Karma Police, Weird Fishes/Arpeggi.
@@olympian3 you are talking about one of the greatest bands ever, compared to a bunch of orange tinted sunglasses wearing assholes. Comparing Radiohead to u2 is like comparing Jimi Hendrix to anybody who is worse than jimi Hendrix. U2 is the fucking worst. Especially when they forced that album onto my iTunes account. But they already sucked decades before that. Nobody in their right mind likes u2, as they should not. . . Cuz u2 is terrible. Meanwhile Radiohead actually is amazing and not pretentious and just speaks for itself without wearing cool glasses or pretending to care about the world. They just make good music. U2 makes shit. They always have made shit. That’s all they can make. I’ve lived my whole life plagued by stupid u2 shit and Radiohead was my only savior. And jimi.
"Do y'all still own a radio?" and she said " if you do I oughta knock you in the head." Lmao 😂 I'm giving a thumbs up just for that comment alone. She's not wrong tho. 😂😂😂
can you pleaseeee react to dude name Mike Stud. But don’t judge from his name he‘s 🔥 “brightside” “win” “don’t jump” “these days” anything from him is fye with a different vibe. He gotta drake feel fr check him out!!
I got the sense that its a boy singing about his parents who dont really love each other but are putting a front on which wears them out. As such the boy wishes he could be who they wanted all the time as he feels he is too putting up a front which wears him out. Hence the child symbolism in the video of being pushed in a shopping cart and that shot at the end.
@Nishta Anand It's strange that both this song, and Pulp's "Common People" video came out in the same month, and both featured being pushed inside a shopping cart. I think this song is simply about consumerism. Radiohead have espoused anti-capitalist politics.
Too mellow.....but mellow can be good depending on song and mood. This one is sort of boring, I think you would of been feeling asleep if it went on any longer... For reals I know I was about to.
This song is a reflection on how fake and plastic society can be. My favorite line; " He used to do surgery, for girls in the 80s, but gravity always wins"
100% agree
I think that was talkin about plastic surgery on boobs but gravity always makes them sag so they have to come back to get surgery again lol
@@dakotakinert1994 damn
Saddest line in all of music: "And if I could be who you wanted all the time..."
Agree completely! I listen the whole song just waiting to be stabbed in the heart with those lyrics!
Well, listen to all the lyrics on Cure's Wish.."We Used to be so close together, how did we get so far apart?".. song "Apart".. "I thought this love would last forever.." Still love this song as well, and the mentioned lyric is gold.
Still makes me cry.. I listened to this song every morning before school when it came out.
@@JGV_IX Right?!
@@valentinogal781 I listened to this song every morning when I came out 😌
Still resonates deep in my bones even after years have gone by!
She looks like the real thing
She tastes like the real thing
My fake plastic love
Some of the saddest lines ever written.

@@DIGITAL7Media Lol.. Good share. I am glad to see someone else appreciate not just this song but those lines in particular.
Every lyrics in Fake Plastic Trees hit the reality so much, and the voice of him...like I wanna cry for it.
sad and brilliant at the same time.
One of the all time great bands! Check out Paranoid Android next.
The bends and ok computer are their best..
Who the hell listens to this song for the first time and doesn't cry?
Or the 10th time, or the 100th time.
Every. Time.

Bends is underrated, OK computer is amazing too but love the Bends.
Finally a reaction of my favorite band 👍 Nice reaction.
someone pay the fine lady to do paranoid android
More Radiohead and Muse reactions needed
we will never get an album like The Bends from Radiohead ever again
Yeah because we got better albums afterwards 🙃
I agree that this was their best work!
A moon shaped is bomb IMO but I love the bends too much
@@darrenbernard3526 both msp and the bends mingled our reality
@@clevername15 ok computer 🔥

Grand groupe. Belle réaction. Saw them live 15 years ago, truly amazing.
Wow Radiohead reaction!! ❤️❤️ not too many out there!!!!!!
Grooving in slow motion :)
Imagine playing this in a club ... everyone will be stone cold sober.
Lmao
You struck me as musically falling in love, with your reaction.
One of the last times music was something special before it became just an industry.... I might just have been young, but I miss these songs.
These guys are sick deep
This song stirs my soul.
You are going on my musical journey. Black Sabbath - Rush - Radiohead
Thom Yorke has a very distinctive voice
You need to hear Radiohead, "I Promise". it will break your heart. Also "House OF Cards" and "No Surprises".
This girl is clueless and just trying to get free money, you can literally see things go over her head🤣
Keep an eye out for Darryl Dixon from the Walking Dead (he is one of the shoppers)
OHHH MANNN.. gotta check out more RHead: Paranoid Android.. Lotus Flower.. Karma Police.. Let Down .. Reckoner.. Weird Fished..
Norman reedus from the walking dead is in this video...cool
Once somebody told me I couldn't unsee him playing with the shopping cart. What a legend
Please do more Radiohead. I love them love them love them

Definitely Radiohead’s best song in my opinion
Not a chance
Absolutely
How to disappear completely is their best in my opinion
That’s one serious water bottle 😀
And if I could be who you wanted all the time

Some great Radiohead songs: "Pyramid Song" "Kid A" "High & Dry"... in my book you can't really go wrong with them
You can go really wrong
please dont ever compare radiohead to u2 ever again for the love of god.
Amen!
They are very similar bands, she isn't wrong. Ed constantly talks about the edge being a massive influence on his guitar style.
@@olympian3 they are not similar. U2 is trash and the edge can go fuck right off.

@@kf8346 Alright, chill I get it, but fact is that ed has discussed his appreciation for them
Give me money and I will pretend to listen to your suggestion.....
Exactly
How many people know Prefame/pre Walking Dead Norman Reedus is in this video?
Arguably the closest thing to a Power Ballad they have ever done. "Complaint Rock" at its best ;) Put your lighters up!
This is a great band. Their albums need to be listened to in their entirety (several are concept albums). Worth a deep dive for sure.
Great build up then nice wind down at the end.
more radiohead
Please do "Subterranean Homesick Alien" by this fabulous band.
Def Leppard-hysteria,
amyl and the sniffers
(forgot to say because of drunken and f... up like shit sorry...still me.. still lovin)
this song is about plastic surgery
"Do y'all still own a radio?" and she said " if you do I oughta knock you in the head." Lmao 😂 I'm giving a thumbs up just for that comment alone. She's not wrong tho. 😂😂😂
react to radiohead - 15 steps , talk show host, karma police, pyramid song. they are way better imo
you should check out No Surprises
can you pleaseeee react to dude name Mike Stud. But don’t judge from his name he‘s 🔥 “brightside” “win” “don’t jump” “these days” anything from him is fye with a different vibe. He gotta drake feel fr check him out!!
You need Radiohead's CREEP, stat!
I doooo

Gangster
Great tune. Get a bit of Oasis in ya life. Try The Masterplan #MadFerIt
Amen on this, masterplan is possibly noel's best song.
Paranoid Android
I think Creep is a logical next choice. One of my favorites.
Paranoid Android!
Who knew that Simple Jack could sing like that.
Please react to freeverse 1 by Ekoh.
“U2 vibes but with a deeper conscience.”
Karma Police
High n dry and creep are better songs by radiohead👍
Too mellow.....but mellow can be good depending on song and mood. This one is sort of boring, I think you would of been feeling asleep if it went on any longer... For reals I know I was about to.
fake plastic trees is a song I always skip. Try 2+2=5.
