Thanks for the shout David - another fantastic video! Never really thought deeply about the 3s on this one but it makes a ton of sense. It gets even crazier with the double drum variation they do live nowadays, with Clive Deamer adding some of the mid-bar switchups from the studio version.

Though I was only listening through my TV, I honestly thought the bass/synth rivaled the original and was perhaps more to my taste. Will defo check out more of your stuff.
yess more david bennett radiohead!!! Please cover some The Smile songs! They've got tons of wonky time signatures, songs that are in 7/8, 11/8, 5/4 and so on
Not to mention some other really weird rhythmic things, like Jonny’s use of delay where he delays notes by like 5 beats to create riffs on a few songs, or rhythmic illusions where the “1” seems like it’s in a different place than it is, or songs like “I Quit” where the “1” seems like it’s nowhere at all in a way
Finally a Radiohead video, been a while, this is a banger as usual though. It’d be fun for you to do a video analysing a The Smile (Thom Yorke, Jonny Greenwood, Tom Skinner) song, a lot of their stuff is very rhythmically complex so it would be interesting to hear your take on it.
Thanks for yet another great and informative video! I remember the first time I listened to it, thinking to myself "wow, they really outdone themselves with this one, I have no idea what this is in" until I fell back on the most basic method - simply counting quarter notes until the next repeat. Despite 12 years of music education this riff still managed to fool me.
@@rodrigoodonsalcedocisneros9266 in all fairness, i think most people fully respect the skillsets of Johnny and Thom and even Ed, but it feels like even a lot of Radiohead fans don't seem to appreciate the genius and subtlety in the rhrythm department, Collin and Phil. Who, without Collin's subtle bass fills and Phil's iconic modern twist on snare and hi-hat beats that almost feel inhuman. They really are, at least in my opinion, the real backbone of Radiohead. But yes, each member of Radiohead really carry an incredible degree of professional musical discipline and prowess on par with classical musicians, and should be treated less as simple rock musicians, and more as sophisticated composers.
I've always felt it in 4/4 but at half the tempo you're putting it at (i.e. the rhytmic cells would be dotted eighth notes instead of dotted quarter notes).
I heard their song 'Creep' earlier on the radio today. For a long time I thought the little chug that happens 3 times before the guitar goes into overdrive (on the lyric 'I'm a Creep') I thought was the sound of the guitarist depressing his overdrive foot pedal. When I had a Fender 75 amp it had a foot switch for over drive allowing one to switch to ear bleeding volume of the Pete Townsend magnitude. It's a real crunch of a mechanical sound, I'm not sure if you weren't supposed to hear it. But that was back when I lived next to a boat sales dealer. Imagine roaring power chords that drown out the sound of power boats. Volume is relative/ might make an interest subject to explore..
Wow!! I can see why this is your favorite band. Not so much for them being popular, it's their skill. It impresses me since I'm not so skilled like that.
Why are the dotted 1/4 notes that don't fall on a beat split into a tied 1/8th and 1/4 note? The ones overlapping the bar division I get, but the ones in the middle of the bar?
because it's easier to see where the beat lies. like you said, they don't fall on a beat. but when you see a single 8th note, you know that it's off beat which makes everything easier to sight read. and the first quarter note is dotted to make a visual distinction from the other "dotted" quarter note probably.
Interestingly, when it's not following the synth rhythm, the drum pattern is ALMOST a hand-foot paradiddle. And the way that I hear it, at least, is that while the snare follows the rhythmic divisions through the 3s, when it deviates, it's actually playing a backbeat. So part of what's so satisfying about the song is how it kind of "cascades" into a traditional 4/4, where the hi-hat holds the line the whole time, the snare and bass fall in line early, and the synth ties up the knot JUST before the finish line.
I never focused on the hihat, interesting I missed the 3:2! Seems obvious when you point it out! I always hear a 4:3 polyrhythm where the riff is the 4, which ofc uses that short note to sync every third (short) bar. I would instinctively write this as two bars of 12/8 followed by one of 8/8, repeat.
Pls make a video about songs that use octatonic diminished scales. They're used in Bebop jazz sometimes. Some classical composers like olivier messian and bartock explored them too. And just by radiohead begins with the scale
Awesome to see more quality content (as always). Is there a term for the 3-3-3-3-4 grouping pattern, like how 3-3-2 is tresillo? It seems to show up everywhere. Myxomatosis, Pyramid Song (rotated), event the Macarena.
A dotted quarter is worth 1.5 beats. So you could place two in a bar of 4/4 and wind up with 1 beat left over in the bar. Or do you mean, why do we use a eighth note tied to a quarter note instead of a dotted quarter note?
@@DavidBennettPiano yeah! i compose music and i have exactly that pattern, i thought there's an issue in putting two next to each other, I'm about the writing way only
@@HaykKotanjyan yeah, you can’t put a dotted quarter note on the 2& beat, you have to put an eighth note tied to a quarter note. Otherwise it’s hard to sight read it because you’ve hidden where beat three is in the bar. Hopefully that makes sense
I feel almost bad commenting this but always kind of sounded like 4/4 to me. The drum accenting isnt a standard 4/4 rhythm but its pretty easy to follow. In fact its one of the most headbang-worthy Radiohead songs. It's closest they came to sounding like early Muse (instead of the other way round)
Hello there! I would like to know how to change the same melody over different time signatures. I am trying to figure it on my own but my results kinda feel weird. I cannot thank you enough if you could provide an answer for this. Love your work mate, Cheers!!
Hey there, I really appreciate your videos! But, have you ever concidered to make a video about Ha Ha said the clown, by Manfred Mann? I think there are really a lot of weird rhythmic shenanigans going on. Keep up the great work!
Personally, I hear it more as two bars of 3/4, one bar of 2/4, then two bars of 4/4. The drums seem to also suggest this, so maybe that's why I hear it like that. I see your interpretation, though.
Love your Radiohead analyses! Also, I heard the same rhythm as ‘Hot cuppa tea’, I think it works better phonologically. The H is easier to place on a beat because of the onset, whereas N has more of a gradual/indistinct beginning because it’s a consonant that continues compared to H which has a defined moment.
I feel it like 2 bars of 3, 1 bar of 2 and then two bars of 4 due to the drums. You can count 1 2 3 1 2 3 1 2 1 2 3 4 1 2 3 4 to the beat and it feels very smooth.
You’ve done lots of analysis type videos that cover origins of certain theory or rhythm tropes, so I wonder if you know the origin of the term ‘chorus’? I always imagine the chorus like as in ‘chorus line’ - a bit of the song we can all sing along together too. So in that regard, could Radiohead be “accused” of having chorus in their songs? For me not since the Bends. Their songs are far too clever for their own good to be sing-along-able and I would argue that this song definitely doesn’t feature a chorus. But I defer to your greater wisdom on the subject.
That is a good question. I do not know how you can determine which piece of a complex-structured song is the chorus, and maybe that is a topic for David. But if you go back to really simple songs, they have what is called a "refrain" (from an old French word meaning "break") that is a repeated phrase as a break between lines or verses. Deck the halls with boughs of holly, fa-la-la-la-la-la-la. Even if you don't know the words you can join in on the fa-la-la, right? And that is the classic structure of a sea chantey, which has a true unison chorus, repeated. The chanteyman sings while everyone pulls: "Santy Ano's gone away" Then the crew readjust their grip on the line and all sing "Away, Santy Ano" And so on. "Santy's gone to Mexico -- Away, Santy Ano" So okay, how does that translate to pop and rock songs that have a few more twiddles than carols and chanteys do? Well, popular music usually still has repeated parts. It's satisfying coming "home" to a refrain between verses, and yes, you can sing it: it's most often shorter and simpler than the verses. That really is how you can tell which piece is the chorus when the structure isn't just verse-chorus-verse-chorus etc. Suppose you start with 2 verses, and then there is a shorter piece that somehow feels like a break or a homecoming? And then that piece will come around again at least a few times.
I've heard you mention on your live stream indicating other TH-cam channels that you love Elliott Smith, could you bring some of his songs for analysis? It would definetely be great some Elliott Smith here on the channel. Thanks for this video though!
