just knowing that Thom Yorke is somewhere in the world making tea or toast or checking his hair or wandering around in his underpants makes me feel so happy. Don't ever die Thom. You're too fucking special.
Crazy that this comment is 9 years old and yet the same thing is still happening. I hope this notification reminded you of this comment, still love radiohead after all these years?
Im playing their songs on guitar every night. First on acoustic(and its sounds awesome), when i started playing guitar a year ago. Now i got a telecaster for my birthday, and i relearned them for it(parts on electric guitar). As a beginer guitarist nice dream, was one of the first songs i learned. I love them
Dispondent in what context? If life get me down, radiohead is a nice option, i also though, go conect with nature in some way, feed the birds, and get out into the good air... nature is where you belong and you'll feel good contributing to what is your natural home.. Im guessing your worry comes from things you cannot control or from some superficial place.. learn to identify with what your worries are base on and learn to let things that you could never control... let em go..freedom lies with letting it all go... and using your intuition to guide you
You know you have come across a timeless piece of art when it keeps on making you feel goosebumps year after year, no matter how many times you hear it. This song is subliminal.
I remember when I was 16 - 17 years old, and MTV was playing great music, and then I' ve gotten up in the morning to watch video clips of great songs. Then, later I' ve listened to Radiohead The Bends album while playing computer games, and back then, I did not really understand the lyrics, but the voice of Thom Yorke deeply touched me (also back then, I did not know his name, either). Also listened to U2 - Zooropa, Queen - Best Of Compilations, and Radiohead Blood Sugar Sex Magik and Californication. I consider Thom Yorke' s voice among the TOP 10 emotional male voices I' ve ever heard. Back then, even mainstream music was great. Surely, even today, you can find lots of great underground/non-mainstream artists/bands of rock, alternative, metal and other genres, but those days were magical because it was like borrowing CDs from friends, and share the love of music at concerts, without cameras, photomachines. I kinda feel a bit sad for today' s generation, for they never know the struggle of waiting for a CD to be released, as you can get everything illegally quickly. I' m no saint, and surely downloading music illegally at first, but then if I like it, I also get it from webshop, or get a T-Shirt/some merch. There was talent in mainstream music, not mostly autotune, like today. This is why today, I listen to old mainstream music and older and current great underground music of metal, rock, alternative, ambient, neoclassical, atmospheric, post-rock and some pop-rock, new age.
I remember watching this video when I was high and naturally, everything appeared slow and more intense and enhanced. I loved the way he moves his head while singing, it felt so human to me at the time when every other thing felt so mechanical. And the song is phenomenal, it reminds me of my childhood which is as vivid as a nice dream :)
This song gets me every time, when I first heard it I was just lying in bed trying to fall asleep and I was listening to music and this song played and I immediately burst, into tears. It really feels like a dream somehow, Nice Dream…
Man I have played piano my whole life and picked up guitar a few years back. This guitar/vocal performance is legendary. The way he accents his music is pure talent. Allot of peopel say Johnny greenwood is the genious of radiohead but I am willing to bet Thom is the structure to the whole band.
So talented. Great voice textures. Superb 12 string accents. This guy is amazing! Gotta love the banging on the windows after that, and the sly smile acknowledgment.
They love me like I was their brother They protect me Listen to me They dug me my very own garden Gave me sunshine Made me happy Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream I call up my friend the good angel But she's out with Her answer-phone She says she'd love to come help but The sea would Electrocute us all Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream, if you think that you're strong enough Nice dream, if you think you belong enough Nice dream, if you think that you're strong enough Nice dream, if you think you belong enough Now come home Now come home Now come home Now come home Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream
thom york makes me want to close my eyes. to see nothing and feel nothing but the music. two spirits intertwined and wrapped in a dark and enchanting solitude.
I love how Radiohead is just one of the most dramatic acts to ever be, their work has evolved much over the years but has always been just very emotional stuff. I don’t live in this kind of music but when I listen to their discography it’s so moving
I can kinda understand why TY looks back at himself in this period and cringes, but I think he was equally awesome when he was dying his hair blonde to when he was dancing around to Lotus Flower, he's just (no pun intended) an awesome guy
At one point in the My Iron Lung song period he had blond hair but was longer and straight and he looked like the way Japanese youth were doing their hair at the time. He looke like a Japanese youth. Go check out the video for My Iron Lung. Its concert footage but I believe theyre playing the album over it.
I just wanna cry with this song. It just fucking reminds me of my problems in life. No offense I love this song, I mean it makes me to cry and empty myself of everything that has been going on my life. His voice is soooo incredibly haunting
if you havent seen radiohead live you must, the passion and emotion in EVERY performance is unparalleled. Chills every time I see them, and I'll admit tears too when they play fake plastic trees. Can't find a better live show!
I listen to this song almost everyday and right now it felt like listening to it the first time. It's feels like being inside a pool and the water washes away your pain. I guess I don't have to explain why I listen to this often anymore. I agree with you.
This performance produces in me two types of emotions;on the one hand the perfection and masterful display of talent by Thom makes me remember how devastatingly beautiful the world can be at times (ie every time Radiohead's music finds me in solitude), on the other hand this song invokes an almost unbearable sentiment of sadness and fragility, to the point that listening it more than once is masochistic. But well, better pain than obliquity.
They love me like I was a brother They protect me, listen to me They dug me my very own garden Gave me sunshine, made me happy . I call up my friend, the good angel But she's out with her answerphone She said that she'd love to come help, but The sea would electrocute us all . Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream (If you think that you're strong enough) Nice dream (If you think you belong enough) Nice dream (If you think that you're strong enough) Nice dream (If you think you belong enough)
I'm SO happy (the irony!) to hear this version: Nice Dream and I go back many years so I'm broken and got chills listening to it. Think I got damp eyes towards the end too. :O Thanks.
Second verse, I love how Thom goes down an octave, from the studio version, on "angel" and "with". It just feels/sounds better to my ear, but I'm taking nothing away from the original.
This song makes me think of all the songs and tunes I’ve ever come up throughout my entire life of nearly seventeen years, and how from just being busy in life or feeling that they weren’t good meant I’ve thrown ninety-nine percent away
Hoy la soñé, alcanzarla fue difícil, pero al final la encontré y ella me encontró. Pude abrazarla, decirle cuanto la extrañaba y pude llevarla a un lugar mágico, hablamos de tanto... a pesar de todo lo que ella tuvo que pasar... Algún día la volveré a ver y será la continuación de este buen sueño
IMO this is one of the most impressive and powerful Radiohead songs. The message is kind of optimistic : when all the people you rely on on are missing, you can still hold on to your nice dreams :)
You've missed the point entirely. The song is about how he thought he had friends, he thought they loved him, he thought his 'good angel' would always be there for him, but he was wrong, it was just a nice dream. The song is ridiculously sad, as is often the case with radiohead.
lukenluken no... thom wrote this song with exactly what jimmie said in mind. hes said so personally. many radiohead songs are open to interpretation not this one
The lyrics- "They love me like I was a brother, they protect me, listen to me. They dug me my very own garden, gave me sunshine, made me happy. NICE DREAM!" It was fake. The good angel would "love to come help"... but she makes ridiculous excuses why she can't come help. Just like people who you think are your friends, but then when you need them, they are nowhere to be found.
People like this help us see our inner soul. Some cant take it, (the pain of it). When He sings like an angel many hearts feel and love with him. Bless and protect this dear one.
[Verse 1] They love me like I was a brother They protect me, listen to me They dug me my very own garden Gave me sunshine, made me happy [Chorus] Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream [Verse 2] I call up my friend, the good angel But she's out with her answerphone She said that she'd love to come help, but The sea would electrocute us all [Chorus] Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream Nice dream (If you think that you're strong enough) Nice dream (If you think you belong enough) Nice dream (If you think that you're strong enough) Nice dream (If you think you belong enough)

Don't ever die Thom. You're too fucking special.

Man you have my heart
I'm replying again bc I love this y'all
Wow Jess. Your made my day too, 11 years later.
11 years later... I wonder how are you now.
I just keep getting more and more obsessed with Radiohead. It's driving me insane.

we've all been there

@@marsupilami_54 telecaster - fucking mint, well done mate.
Thom yorke head movement so fuckin legendary.
Happiness is being alone in room and feeling little despondent and listening to Radiohead again and again
+Avinash Kumar That is true
+Avinash Kumar
Beautifully said.
when I was a young teen it was their first album. Pablo Honey. Its an album you can crawl inside of and feel depressed and enjoy it. So nice.

Totally agree. Alone in the living room with red whine and radiohead. Nothing else!
one of the first Radiohead songs i fell in love with
Same
Me too.

Me three
Me 8
I have never seen someone playing guitar the way he does. He is music. Music goes through him. Extraordinary.
Like a fine wine, Radiohead songs just get better the older they get.
one man doing this song so efficiently is insane, the van gogh of this generation.
Thom is so, so beautiful, as is that voice. *SIGH* The depth of emotion while he sings just brings me to tears.
Saw your comment again
It fuckin does get better.. ever heard of Radiohead?
That's why no one can compare to Radiohead , they are untouchable in a field of their own
oh no you again
His eye defect makes him look more unique and special.
He plays this so well you can almost hear the other instruments in the background. Amazing.
I agree, perfect song
Yes. It’s gorgeous
A shy soul, an angel voice... An amazing song.
You know you have come across a timeless piece of art when it keeps on making you feel goosebumps year after year, no matter how many times you hear it. This song is subliminal.
Still feel it mate now
I knowwww what are these lyrics? They’re so incredible I relate to them without even understanding them
nothing like the smile in an artist's face with the applauses
he looks like a song
Aww look at his little face at the end, bless him.
One of the greatest voices in music.
THE greatest to me!
Still one of my most favorite live performances he’s ever done.
watching this i feel nothing but love for this man.

I spent my whole childhood thinking it was 'ice cream.. ice cream..ice cream'
+Ablequerq i think u also have an undiagnosed something
That's great
I LOVE IT !!!
Ketan genius
Hahaha.. funny word's..
I can't bring myself to listen to anyone else because Thom's music is so bloody captivating
I remember watching this video when I was high and naturally, everything appeared slow and more intense and enhanced. I loved the way he moves his head while singing, it felt so human to me at the time when every other thing felt so mechanical. And the song is phenomenal, it reminds me of my childhood which is as vivid as a nice dream :)
idk why black star reminds me of my childhood
I always love how he moves his head around and closes his eyes. You can tell he's really getting into the music.
This gets me EVERY TIME. I keep listening and watching over, and over, and over.
It doesn't get better than Thom Yorke.
Kristin Zeiber YES
:)

The sound he can produce even when it's just him and an acoustic is unbelievable
So talented. Great voice textures. Superb 12 string accents. This guy is amazing! Gotta love the banging on the windows after that, and the sly smile acknowledgment.
vocals are perfect. they are everything that i want to hear aesthetically
They love me like I was their brother
They protect me
Listen to me
They dug me my very own garden
Gave me sunshine
Made me happy

thom york makes me want to close my eyes. to see nothing and feel nothing but the music. two spirits intertwined and wrapped in a dark and enchanting solitude.
what
So beautifull... Makes me cry just to listen it.
This is one of my favourite songs. Thanks to Radiohead I really appreciate rock music now.
absolute magic. one of the best musicians of all time.
One of my fav acoustic performances.
The best version of this beautiful song, surely?
It needs Jonny!! But this is definitely a soulful version

he looked so good tho
@@anthonyfuqua6988 he was most asian white boy for a few months back in 94
cringing at past versions of ourselves is a universal human experience
I can't anything cringy about him ever.
he is so perfect ☹️☹️
it's still astonishing to me that one man and a guitar can create something incredibly beautiful. but that's thom yorke for you.
the bends is in my top 3 albums. and this and bullet proof are the 2 best songs on there.
zoop zap I like this, Bones, Black * and Street Spirit
The Bends is my favorite Radiohead album...so good on vinyl
nice dream black* fake plastic tree
The bends is definitely my favorite radiohead album
It was fresh sounding yet soulful. I listened to it for about 9 months everyday at 16 years old.
Beautiful track from a beautiful album.
this got me through the night. Thank you radiohead for existing
I just wanna cry with this song. It just fucking reminds me of my problems in life. No offense I love this song, I mean it makes me to cry and empty myself of everything that has been going on my life. His voice is soooo incredibly haunting
Hey, hope you are keeping well during this trialing time ❤️
same
I like the people outside like a hoard of zombies after the song finishes haha
He is just a Dream,soooooooooooooo talented,so YUM,so in tune with his Guitar,i love it xxx
He is so beautiful and special, I could watch him forever.
Voice of an angel
if you havent seen radiohead live you must, the passion and emotion in EVERY performance is unparalleled. Chills every time I see them, and I'll admit tears too when they play fake plastic trees. Can't find a better live show!
he's so talented i'm gonna cry.
this is the most beautiful piece of music that i have ever seen or heard on RUclips, or anywhere else.
I listen to this song almost everyday and right now it felt like listening to it the first time. It's feels like being inside a pool and the water washes away your pain. I guess I don't have to explain why I listen to this often anymore. I agree with you.
I was there in the glass. Musique plus: MONTREAL !
I could listen to Thom sing all day and never get tired. Mmmm nice dream Radiohead❤
No only his voice is amazing...HE is amazing...
There is such a deep pit of sadness buried in this song. It's overwhelming.
I had a dream of Radiohead last night. I saw them in person and then I took pictures with Jonny and Colin Greenwood.😍😍
Nice dream....
this song has given me shivers for more than 10 years, and still does...am so glad i can grow old with that feeling.
This performance produces in me two types of emotions;on the one hand the perfection and masterful display of talent by Thom makes me remember how devastatingly beautiful the world can be at times (ie every time Radiohead's music finds me in solitude), on the other hand this song invokes an almost unbearable sentiment of sadness and fragility, to the point that listening it more than once is masochistic. But well, better pain than obliquity.
Love his voice so much. Suits their music and vibe so well
Tv series How i met your mother 3. season final part soundtrack. episode "Miracles". Awesome music!
barışbesler I just watched that episode but I have always loved this song and The Bends album. I was happy to hear it
Vay be barış
baris Heard it in the tv show and decided to learn it. Beautiful song...
Raphael Doucet and beautiful series 😁
I m watching the episode now (;
Thom and his 12-string guitar.. Nothing compares.. :)
Such pure, raw talent! Awesome!
ty for the share. like it.
Queen C I gotchu;)
Simply brilliant and shows just how clever How To Disappear Completely is linking melody, emotion and time.
Watching this reminded me of how grateful i am to have learned on my father's old 1970 yamaha 12 string 30 years ago!!!!
shit wrong vid.......
i began writing the comment on the solo acoustic vid of Thom playing this,then the vid ended when i hit send LOL
They love me like I was a brother
They protect me, listen to me
They dug me my very own garden
Gave me sunshine, made me happy

2024 After all this years... I still have the same feeling. The same of the first time. This is real art.
I have just heard this song and I love it so much
#2018
Brought tears to my eyes. The few who saw this live were truly privileged.
I'm SO happy (the irony!) to hear this version: Nice Dream and I go back many years so I'm broken and got chills listening to it. Think I got damp eyes towards the end too. :O

Thom has turned from an alternative icon into a certified genius. he's only gotten better.
This song makes me think of all the songs and tunes I’ve ever come up throughout my entire life of nearly seventeen years, and how from just being busy in life or feeling that they weren’t good meant I’ve thrown ninety-nine percent away
Radiohead simply gets you high...love it!
this is such a gorgeous performance, i don't know how one small man can be so hugely talented. he is amazing.
I can't describe how much I adore this man.

Suena todavía más lindo en español
@@catalina5711 así no es la letra pero ta bonita igual :3
Such fond memories of watching this when I was a teenager. It is still one of my Radiohead favorites
Fantastic version! So emotional..
Thom is magical! Definitive performance; and this song really needs nothing else but him and an acoustic guitar. Queued this up. Made my day!
Not that I don't enjoy his singing now but Thom's voice was perfection at this point
Radiohead is just epic.. i can't even find the words to describe how talented there are... then again.. i think it's best that way...
IMO this is one of the most impressive and powerful Radiohead songs. The message is kind of optimistic : when all the people you rely on on are missing, you can still hold on to your nice dreams :)

Jimmie Rustler True. But that's the good thing about music, you can interpret many many things from a single song. Everybody views it different.

Musique plus days! Just how I remember the band from school in the early nineties such amazing memories..so cool
Note: this was recorded more than 20 years ago. How time flies....
Such a simple and fascinating song, the 12 string guitar really compliments the whole sound...
This video is almost at 2 million well deserved views:)
This is the first song I sang to my wife.
She is my joy and happiness.
jesus christ is my life
my reason to live
to love...........
this along with subterranean homesick alien are the best songs to sleep to
Both of these songs songs are influenced heavily by nick drake. In fact, they take from 'the chime of a city clock' and 'parasite' heavily
The single most beautiful song EVER written.
"You cannot melt or unwrap me, I'm the sweet man, made of chocolate. Your licorice eyes will en-wrap me, we'll be creamy, soft and milky."

amazing musician AND performer...there is no one like him.
