Let down is absolutely not the most underrated Radiohead song simply due to the fact it is on OK Computer. For that title I’d go to a single or one of their less reputable albums such as You on Pablo Honey or Spectre or Cuttooth (both singles)
So I'm the one who came up with the idea of syncing this part of Koyaanisqatsi to Let Down and for a moment I thought you just had reposted my video, which speaks to how good job you did recreating the whole sequence of the film. You know, when I first made it, thought it was nice, and then left it on my hard drive for 3 years because I considered it wouldn't be interesting enough. Only after finding it one day and watching it again I finally decided to post it in reddit. So given that it's quite nice to find out that it inspired someone to spend a year creating a whole new video in the same style.
Yes! I was blown away when I first saw your edit and couldn't help but attemp to recreate the feeling the imagery and the song created. This was a fun little project and I'm very glad you enjoyed it.
I listen to this song while on the train, driving, on the bus, and walking. And this is kind of exactly what i imagined the music video would look like. Good job.
Wow, I don't know where to start!! I am absolutely blessed and shocked by the bliss this video has captured. Trust me, it was totally worth the 12 months. The transition in the video, particularly at 1:08, from the scene of people on the beach to the dynamic imagery of the accelerated train track... just wow. Or at 4:20, the smile of the woman was just perfect.. So heart-warming! What even are the odds to capture this?? I also love how the video is sped up. It shows that the "right now" is meaningless I love to think that the electronic "glimmering" noises at 4:42 are reflected as a thousand rushing cars passing by within seconds, giving the sense of a thousand living creatures either living life, having families, confront their own problems, etc. We are just like ants.. Life is rushing by as we don't notice I have no further words, I am just shocked by this utter beauty. Thank you
Thank you so much! I’m really happy to see how everyone is connecting with the video in their own way. Since you enjoyed some of the shots in there I’d highly recommend the movie titled Koyaanisqatsi (1982). I took a lot of inspiration from it and some of the shots were a direct homeage. It explores the themes of humanity in even more detail. Once again thank you!
Thanks for the recommendation! @@egorlitke I am indeed looking forward to that film trilogy. In fact, I first heard of "Powaqqatsi" when I was listening to "Anthem, pt. 2" in The Truman Show. I am also a big fan of Philip Glass, especially in connection with David Bowie. He's my nummero uno lol. I am not a huge fan of radiohead in fact, but I do love a handful of songs, especially Let Down has grown so deep within me
that part with the final verse and the blurry brake lights and everything moving so fast.. brought me to tears. you really captured the essence of what this song means I think. Thank you.
This is brilliant! I love the juxtaposition between the sped up, wide shots of the busy city compared to the slow, almost intimate shots of the people smiling into the camera. Well done!
4:03 the best part of the song, it felt great that the night became with it, recently i saw a video stating the obvious that ok computer was ahead of its time as it describes how is like to live on this century, and your vid is the living proof of it, great job, great shots🙌🏽
Fantastic work, been fantasising for years of making a video for this song and while some of it is different to what I was thinking quite a lot is remarkably similar. Beautiful song beautiful images.
This is the kind of videos I've been waiting forever to find. Just deeply passionate people giving their own experience and interpretations on a song, or any other work of art. Great work!
This is spectacular. I love this song so much and this video complimented it so well and was so beautiful it made me cry. Thank you so much for creating this masterpiece!!
Man, when I read your reddit post that you were making a remake of the famous Koyaanisqatsi "grid" shots, I was not enthusiastic. After watching this, you've proven me dead wrong. What an amazing project. It does seem to differ from the original in tone: you don't appear to be telling a horror story.
I needed to see this. The song is different to my taste and it wasn’t clicking with me, I had to have some kind of experience to make me feel it. I think this delivers that.
A very lyrical and at the same time deep look at the city. A kind of portrait of a place through human images. At the same time such a very young view of the world, full of hope and seeing only the best in others. Personally, it seems to me that the mood of the video does not quite coincide with the despondency of Radiohead. But for me, this video is more than just a fan clip. The amount of work done and the variety of techniques found for shooting is impressive. Undoubtedly a talented film.
Por alguna razón, cada que oigo está canción se me pone la piel chinita, y me dan ganas de llorar, pero cuando ví este video, se sintió muy bien pero se sintió muy duro (porque tuve muchos sentimientos encontrados) pero de verdad, felicidades por este bello, bellísimo video, se ganó de mis respetos está persona quien edito este video 😊❤😢
Transport, motorways, and tramlines Starting and then stopping Taking off and landing The emptiest of feelings Disappointed people Clinging on to bottles And when it comes It's so, so disappointing Let down and hanging around Crushed like a bug in the ground Let down and hanging around Shell smashed, juices flowing Wings twitch, legs are going Don't get sentimental It always ends up drivel One day I am gonna grow wings A chemical reaction Hysterical and useless Hysterical and Let down and hanging around Crushed like a bug in the ground Let down and hanging around Let down again Let down again Let down again You know, you know where you are with You know where you are with Floor collapsing Floating, bouncing back And one day I am gonna grow wings A chemical reaction (you know where you are) Hysterical and useless (you know where you are) Hysterical and (you know where you are) Let down and hanging around Crushed like a bug in the ground Let down and hanging around
The grid is an invisible energy that drives everything in our daily life. Our civilization depends on it. Sometimes itʼs beautiful, yet terrifying at the same time. This music video shows us how the grid causes the world to move very quickly with each passing time, while our mundane activities completely shroud us from ever realizing it.
3:51 coolest shot I’ve seen in a damn long time
Reminds me of Hard to Explain video clip
It's phenomenal. The very everyday circumstances of the shots fit the song beautifully.
I couldn’t have said it better.
That's what makes the song hits the most for me, the song sounds like what the embodiment of an average day deconstructed
Phenorminal
Did you pay for copyright for this? Because I would like to do it as well. Amazing job btw
Absolutely fucking incredible job mate, really did "the most underrated RH song" justice
Let Down, kind of underrated
@@hairglowingkyle4572 This music video is quite underrated

Most beautiful thing i've ever seen
That was perfectly shot and edited! You should be making official videos for great bands like Radiohead. They'd be lucky to have you.
He's on a roll
The most beautiful piece of art in the world
This video reminds of the brilliant film Koyaanisqatsi. Absolutely brilliant ❤
Yesss!!!!

There's something cool about Let Down and a video of cars driving by a highway or slow mo of people walking that gives me goosebumps everytime.
cuz its soo quick whilst when we walk its just slow, despite everything being so quick and easy, life is still disappointing
This is genuinely professional level cinematography. Amazing stuff.
You couldn’t have done a better job creating a fitting video to this song🙏
That was beautifully done. This should be the official video. Staggering work.
The time between the release of OK Computer and this video has been a blur.
Well done and great inspiration to take from
This is our modern society in a nutshell, and your music video completely showcases that.
Wow. Ashamed to say I’ve never stumbled on this one as a huge Radiohead fan. Spectacular 👍
one of the most underrated songs of all underrated discography
Let Down underrated
Its not that underrated
@@__blackwidow_ boo you probably think sulk is underrated >:(
Amazing. This is what I see listening to Let Down. Reminds me of the movie Koyaanisqatsi, which is a huge compliment!
Fantastic cinematography man. The whole vibe of finding humanity in the ordered chaos of the modern world... fantastic work.
Fantastic work, been fantasising for years of making a video for this song and while some of it is different to what I was thinking quite a lot is remarkably similar. Beautiful song beautiful images.
This is the kind of videos I've been waiting forever to find. Just deeply passionate people giving their own experience and interpretations on a song, or any other work of art. Great work!
I did not come into this expecting to like it. I defiantly did not expect it to make me cry. director understood the assignment. mad props!
This is so incredible. Keep going, excited to see what's next
Wow! That's fantastic. Thank you so much. You are a great artist, my friend. Wonderful.
Oh my fucking god, this is so good! You really really need more recognition
this is an amazing music video! for the last minute and a half it felt utterly soul crushing but in a good way
this should be the official music video. this is absolutely incredible
this might be the best radiohead video even if unofficial
This is spectacular. I love this song so much and this video complimented it so well and was so beautiful it made me cry. Thank you so much for creating this masterpiece!!
But for real this is really cool it really did bring a smile to my face watching this because I know how hard you worked and how long this took
damn. Not only did I not cringe, it gave me a nice smile. Thank you.

It does seem to differ from the original in tone: you don't appear to be telling a horror story.
Thank you! To be fair it's still the same horror story--the focal point and tone are just different.
aaaah egor every shot is beautiful this is amazing 🙌🏻🙌🏻
2000s vibe,great job!
Really sensitive piece of film. Loved it, mate.
Bro this is really good, congrats from Conakry, Guinea
So beautiful mate, fantastic job!

It’s really quite excellent my guy.

Beautiful video for a beautiful song.
Absolutely done! speechless 😬

This is by far the best thing I’ve ever seen In my entire existence I wish I could share this to the entire planet
Goosebumps.
This is masterpiece
I like this a lot. Good job!
Super impressive, good job!
Отличная работа! Просто залипла на видео. 👏👍👌

I needed to see this. The song is different to my taste and it wasn’t clicking with me, I had to have some kind of experience to make me feel it. I think this delivers that.
Beautiful!
holy i love nyc
Beautiful. Evokes the best in me
Egor, you did such a great job with thisss!! 👏👏👏
i need to know how to make those speed up light shots
craaaazy camera work

You should make another one but with Everything in its right place
Most underrated music video
Finally a good video for this song
This is incredible!
Truly beautiful work!
High key so cool, proud of you 🥺
i love everything about this!
Transport, motorways, and tramlines
Starting and then stopping
Taking off and landing
The emptiest of feelings
Disappointed people
Clinging on to bottles
And when it comes
It's so, so disappointing
Let down and hanging around
Crushed like a bug in the ground
Let down and hanging around
Shell smashed, juices flowing
Wings twitch, legs are going
Don't get sentimental
It always ends up drivel
One day I am gonna grow wings
A chemical reaction
Hysterical and useless
Hysterical and
Let down and hanging around
Crushed like a bug in the ground
Let down and hanging around
Let down again
Let down again
Let down again
You know, you know where you are with
You know where you are with
Floor collapsing
Floating, bouncing back
And one day I am gonna grow wings
A chemical reaction (you know where you are)
Hysterical and useless (you know where you are)
Hysterical and (you know where you are)
Let down and hanging around
Crushed like a bug in the ground
Let down and hanging around
underrated
This video isn't nearly depressing enough. it's still so sunny and people are smiling. not at all the feelings i get in inner cities.
How To Disappear Completely MV by David Herrera might suit your taste
@@phamquanghuy8000 Oh damn... yeah that's gonna do it boss.
Wow this is excellent 👏👏👏👏👏
Best song ever written
This is great, i think it would benefit from being a bit greyer and moodier in colour just to keep the general ok computer atmosphere
damn perfect
Amazing work!!!!
Brawo bravissimo!
This video is a chemical reaction. Stellar work
this is fucking awesome
phenomenal
beautiful.
for some reason I thought there's gonna be shots from the location in OK Computer cover art
goosebumps.
beautiful
Well done!
opinion: this is the 2nd best song from OK Computer (only beaten by no surprises)

This music video shows us how the grid causes the world to move very quickly with each passing time, while our mundane activities completely shroud us from ever realizing it.
I feel like if this was The Tourist, it would also be perfect somehow.
3:52 ❤
perfect
Amazing
Егор, очень атмосферно, я залипла и утонула😵💫Так держать!!!
Underrated tbh
This observably took a lot of effort to make, but I don't see it going together with the song at all thematically.
