- Climbing up the Walls
Radiohead
OK Computer
I am the key to the lock in your house
That keeps your toys in the basement
And if you get too far inside
Youll only see my reflection
Its always best when the covers up
I am the pick in the ice
Do not cry out or hit the alarm
You know were friends till we die
And either way you turn
Ill be there
Open up your skull
Ill be there
Climbing up the walls
Its always best when the light is off
Its always better on the outside
Fifteen blows to the back of your head
Fifteen blows to your mind
So lock the kids up safe tonight
Shut the eyes in the cupboard
Ive got the smell of a local man
Whos got the loneliest fear
That either way you turn
Ill be there
Open up your skull
Ill be there
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls
Climbing up the walls

I don't think it was a good idea to listen to this before bed.
Ahahahahahahahaahaa LOL
Good one!
Napoleon It's sad, not scary
MoonLight Dog depends... when youre high as a squirrel it might indeed not be such a good idea to listen to this during night time :p otherwise you may up end scared to death and never sleeping again... or mesmerized in an awesome way for that matter!
MoonLight Dog Sad? This doesn't seem sad to me. This always gets me fired up. Always. Definitely a bad thing when bedtime is approaching :).
That scream gets me every time.
ye its so guttural, and the dissonant violins that accompany it give me the chills everytime
I love it
still hits 5 yrs later
Love it.
the sound of a mind coming undone
Or...
I've always been crazy, but this keeps me from going insane.
if you want to destroy my sweater
RADIOHEAD at their most violent and beautiful.
yes :v
paranoid Android?
+4lumc no
no?
4lumc no
No other song can genuinely creep me out yet relax me at the same time. Truly a work of art.
I am the key to the lock in your house.
That keeps your toys in the basement.
And if you get too far inside, all you'll see is your reflection.
@@Robert_McGarry_Poems You'll only see your reflection

@Sam ET. prolly the best cure song
Painful, depressive, beautiful...
...creepy ?
...creative??
jose gandalf
Maybe...Among others.
What about sexy?
jennnn000
What about shabby ? Like YOU are shabby ?
(in other hand, your photo is infinitely more sexy than this grim but very good song)
3:08 to 3:31 , the first time i listened to this song , this part gave every inch of my skin a mighty goosebump
me too. so raw and powerful
Still gives me goosebumps!
This album is what you listen to when your driving all alone on a empty highway at night.
no its for aaron rodgers
Especially due to the album cover lol
💀💀
This is truly the climax of Ok Computer. The point where it hits it’s emotional peak, and mellows down to the sweet-lullabyness of the last 3 tracks. This song always sends shivers down my spine whenever I listen to this album
OKC's best track. those screeching synths, those drums, thom's distorted voice, everything blends together into this beautiful feast. And that SCREAM at the end is so good.
"I've got the smell of a local man who's got the loneliest fear". that line makes the hair on my arm stand up.
that guitar solo.
10/10
Late, but minor correction: it's "loneliest feeling" not "loneliest fear."
@@Welcometotheslam5424 He said this 6 years ago bro 💀

Better late than never, mate.
A beautiful feast....this comment aged like a fine wine.
For all the better-known tracks on this album, this is the one that I feel best encapsulates the overall mood and theme ie. one of paranoia and uncertainty leading in to the next millennium. It's musically brilliant too, obviously!
I love the spoken word, computer generated voice song too. Stronger happier, fitter, more productive...
A terrifying psychological thriller condensed into 4 minutes and 45 seconds of pure sonic madness
This music here is good as anything ever recorded by mozart or beethoven. Its abstract but yet tangible. It is emotive, melancholic and introspective and it touches my soul like no other music I have heard. That's why Radiohead are the best musical composers ever because their music reaches places inside you that nobody else can.
Spot on... They evoke a feeling that transcends language.
Triangular Eye uh the word for that is visceral, not exactly transcendent of language if we have a word for it lmao
***** XD
***** i guess he meant to say "written"
Bytorand1
The feeling I'm referring to may be happening on instinct rather than thought but that still doesn't define that feeling, does it?
radiohead lyrics are always so abstract but i like how you can interpret them in many different ways.
Agreed that's the beauty of radiohead
yes thats what abstract means
@@carsonnichols7428 probably meant vague
So ahead of its time. This song sounds like it could be an indie rock song that came out yesterday.
***** All of Radiohead's songs will never feel old. Radiohead are pioneers, they're composing the future.
songsongandsong22 Better, sounds better than any song that came out yesterday. My grandkids will thank Radiohead came out in their generation
***** Not really even close, but dance little liar and too much to ask are probably the closest it gets
I think people should stop saying certain songs are ahead of their time. It implies that newer music is better. And that's not true.
+songsongandsong22 Ehh. Maybe atmospherically, but I wouldn't give modern indie that much credit for it's sophistication.
After all of these years this song still gives me goosebumps. Greatest Radiohead ever...so viscous.
Not sure if you meant vicious or viscous, but it certainly fits either way.
For those debating the meaning of the song lyrics, here's an interesting bit that I think you'll all find as fascinating as I do:
Lead singer Thom Yorke: "This is about the
unspeakable. Literally skull-crushing. I used to work in a mental
hospital around the time that Care In The Community started, and we all
just knew what was going to happen. And it's one of the scariest things
to happen in this country, because a lot of them weren't just
harmless... It was hailing violently when we recorded this. It seemed to
add to the mood."
More from Yorke:
"Some people can't sleep with the curtains open in case they see the
eyes they imagine in their heads every night burning through the glass.
Lots of people have panic buttons fitted in their bedrooms so they can
reach over and set the alarm off without disturbing the intruder. This
song is about the cupboard monster."
It's about Jon Snow and the wildlings climbing the wall
+Theclaw Yaww lold
@@theclawyaww3740 Lol two types of comments
reducing the world to a superlative
Love that bird sound effect just before 2nd chorus 2:50. This song is a masterpiece ✨️
That scream at the end, though
insanity in a bottle of the highest potency, radiohead at their finest, love it.
How is it that this album used to relax me? especially this song would put me to sleep. This is one of my favs by radiohead.
***** LOL
This is my favorite song off of Ok Computer.
I love it when RADIOHEAD get into that mood.
minus its beauty, this song sounds how I would imagine paranoia to feel
or a anxiety panic attack
flowerfoxes This song was written about Thom's experiences working at a mental health clinic. So, in a way, this song is about paranoia.
This song is a religious experience
After a thousand listenings, I still think OkC is the best album ever
not far behind 'the dark side of the moon' album....
One of the songs that got me through the darkest nights of my adolescence.
This song is depressing... Beautiful, it is too much for words to accurately describe. No song makes me feel this way, nothing ever has...
Definitely an out of body experience listening to this. Peak Radiohead greatness
Can't count how many times this spinned in my SONY discman
Likewise , still have that discman too
Got it on cassette in Xmas 97 in 11th grade with Odelay by Beck. I only had one CD format album at the time, Ben Folds Five self titled. I would have streamed it like crazy when it came out if they had that back then, though.
I absolutely adore the drums in this song. Unbelievable instrumental and lyrical piece. One of my favorite songs from them now.
This has grown to be one of my favorite songs on "OK Computer" which is by far my top Radiohead album.
Radiohead are just stunning, in every sense of the word.
Sometimes you try to go to sleep, but you can't because a song is stuck in your head and it keeps your brain going so you can't relax enough to sleep... This song kept me up last night because of that.
Falling 4 me:/
I am a metalhead but I love Radiohead. They are great! They give me something that no other band can. Sorry for my English
same bro, i listen to grindcore and death metal most of the time then radiohead lololol
All the passion and feeling in this song, it's just incredible and gorgeous. My favorite part is Thom's blood-curdling scream of terror and angst at 4:02. It gives me chills. This entire song gives me chills and sometimes scares me, ahaha.
"I don't know where you end and I begin." 🐝
that scream at the end though
I was introduced to this song in my sleep with headphones on. Sit on that for a minute.
My favorite song on the album. I remember lining up at midnight to get this CD when it was first released and then spending a good few hours in the car with my friends just listening. Awesome memories.
I had an eargasm yesterday in Montreal when they performed this AMAZING SONG!
my fav from ok computer
mine too
This is one of the most deepest emotional songs I've heard. And one of my favourite by Radiohead.
Best album of Radiohead ever!
i can't hear you, callin 2 me
I CAN SEE UR FALLING 4 ME
That scream at the end ALWAYS gets me...ALWAYS.
this is the best album of the 1990s. without a doubt. I listened to it consistently when it came out. radiohead were firing on all cylinders with this record. to the point where the band nearly disintegrated.
Wow really?
i don’t wanna die, i don’t wanna od
cup full of lean
This song is supposed to represent an asylum, right? Very well done, I've never been in one but this song has a sense of anxiety and being trapped. Scary, but in a bizarre, good way.
Hold me, I can't breathe...
I DONT WANNA DIE I DONT WANNA OD
@@yamumsturd7102 CUP FULL OF LEAN
this song reaches into the darkest realms of your soul like so many other songs from this incredible band of musicians
i dont really have a favorite radiohead song. I can come up with maybe at top 15. This one is definitely on it. So Creepy yet so beautiful.
Good choice for the ending scene in yellowjackets season2 episode 2
Hauntingly beautiful
HOLD ME. I CANT BREATH. I DONT WANNA DIE I DONT WANNA O D!
CUP FULL A LEAN PURE CODEINE
@@arsenal2.093 10 LINES DEEP NOW I CANT SEE
This song completely bows my mind...
my all time favorite song on this album
The goosebumps
+Simona Yorkee very real
this is the sort of song that makes a normal human being question whether he's sane or just trapped in the basement, with the keys locked in a place he can't reach... this question haunted me for over a year , this music is so disturbing that it actually made me rethink many things i took for granted. truely like any other band on this earth, thats for sure...
So he's not saying pull up your skirt. lol
this is brilliant, their music is pure art, filled with strong emotions ... its so powerful, it gives me goosebumps every time i listen. marvellous. masterpiece.
Probably my favorite Radiohead song... But idk, it always changes with them
this is one of my favorite radiohead songs.
To me it is about anxiety and mental illness and I imagine it to be about my OCD- “you know we’re friends till we die / And either way you turn, I’ll there / Open up your skull, I’ll be there / climbing up the walls”
Regardless of how I distract myself and the antidepressants I am prescribed it is always there, in the back of my mind, waiting for me to let my guard down and take over my mind again
Thats because the medication you take isnt a cure
I relate deeply,it's like a splinter in the back of your mind,always coming back to haunt you.
Makes me always close to the edge,my guard high and my heart numb.
But each day alive is a victory.
Masterpiece
There is nothing more chilling than the climax of this song, so great. With that booming and violent synth, and those strings that make you feel like everything is coming down and we're in free fall.
Thom wrote this song based on his experience working in a mental hospital. It perfectly encapsulates that feeling that your mental disorders are beings over which we have no control, they've become our masters instead, lodged without permission inside our head, whispering deep in your skull, climbing up the walls...
The thing that gets me about Radiohead is that these songs translate great into their live shows. One might think they are so complex (with the use of computers, loops, etc) that the song may lose something when played live. This is certainly not the case. See Bonnaroo 06 version of this song. Amazing is all I can say.
This song is so fucking powerful
This song makes for so many potential great covers. It has a bluesy feel with this sick madness that is both poetic and beautiful and scary at the same time.
I can't wait to see and hear them this summer! Radiohead is on the top of my list of bands I want to see before I die.
Anyone with terrifying schizophrenia can definitely relate to this more than thay'd like to.
Sure brings back a lot of freaking memories.
one of my comfort songs
Fitter happier is the most underrated 0_o
but personally, I think it's the Tourist. Every freaking song on that album is just amazingly coherent with each other. It's perfectly layered and a great time. Best album ever IMO
Fitter happier isn't even a song tho
@@chipconsumer6811 My thoughts exactly. More like an interlude
Yeah yellow jackets made this song creepy but good lol
this is my favorite radio head song of all times hands down
are you still alive?
This needs more views.
One of the best songs ever..
The greatest album since the 70s
Where dodgy equipment and cheap recording devices become art. Radiohead are awesome like that.
everytime i listen to any of their songs i say to myself: no, THIS one is my favourite!
3:07 is one the most impressive pieces of music I have ever heard.
every song on this album transports me
How amazing is that key change at the start of the chorus. SO MANY CHILLS
I swear to god, that scream at the end always gives me chills.
Man, I love this song. I showed it to my friends and they all called it stoner music though, which isn't necessarily bad, but I never really thought of Radiohead that way.
This song is about society at it's worst, murders, corruption, wars, diseases, living in fear in your own home, your own neighborhood, your own family, your own town, anywhere. Always on alert, always aware, always cautious, always worried, never safe...
The madness of this world will never end, it will only get worse...
Lil peep and peaky blinders brought me here
Amazing. Music will never again be like this. Ever.
This song feels like it understands me better than any person I've ever tried to explain my anxiety / paranoia to
I came here because of one Lil Peep song, it's called falling for me and Lil Peep used the intro of this song and I thought what a song, absolutely hipnotizing
Fr
very few songs have seriously freaked me out, this is one of them.
When I was a little kid, laying in my bed in the dark on a humid summer night, with only the glow of the moon to light my room, I wondered what exactly was out there.....
.....And this song sums up that feeling and atmosphere perfectly. Those little beeps at 0:19 darting across the night sky in this big, mysterious world at night. Even though this song is about being in a mental institution, from what I understand.
The baudelaireian spleen of moder man. Gourgeous TY.
Mad good album.
This song, Rabbit in your Headlights, and You and Whos Army are my favorite Radiohead songs. They are just the very best of this band to me. Seeing You and Whos Army live from the pit had a profound effect on me...it wasn't a favorite until that point. I LOVE this band.
We all have our demons, this song reminds me of mine, helps to keep them in check.
Guitar is so great in this track
How to tell a compelling story in under 5 minutes
I love this song so damn much...
This is what Michael Myers probably listens to
