I'm glad Thom seems fitter, happier, more optimistic, nowadays.
Yes
More productive?
@@valentinasanchez5757 And comfortable. He did regular yoga too.
@@zackzallie8735 3 days a week?
Hehe
Stanley Donwood is definitely the seventh member of Radiohead. His work is so precious and deserves more attention tbh.
Don’t forget nigel godrich
@@abrahammurillo1461
He is the sixth member obviously.
@@draswett2589 that’s right
Thom, jonny, Colin, ed, phil, nigel, stanley and “clive deamer”.
@@draswett2589 what stanley has done for the band is as important as the others’ work, without him radiohead wouldn’t be the same.
Love that they ditched the corporate graphic designers and got his old m8 from Uni to design the covers, which are very organic and thought provoking. Can still remember the day i bought the bends.
Seeing Thom so open and comfortable is one of the most rewarding things in life. He deserves it.
Tellement.. Il arrive toujours quelque chose de gratifiant pour une œuvre... pourvu de ce soit dans la vie ! ... Et c est le cas, leur travail fait partie intégrante de la vie quotidienne,de la notre à tous, et ils avancent avec cet esprit de découverte et cette soif de vérité insatiable... Ça fait un bien fou des êtres humains aussi imprégnés de vie... 😍🤗😊
What song is playing in the background?
@@dylandimelow9519 like spinning plates
@@dylandimelow9519 Kid A, and then Like Spinning Plates.
@@moniqueleducq1309 excellent and important point Monique, and also completely true. thom is a master craftsman not by chance, but rather through pure will, drive, determination, and passion. This life-changing music exists bc of all the thousands of hours of practice and toil by the lads for our supreme benefit as fans. Thank you for suffering for us thom, seriously. Without your inspiration I would never have gone down this path.
Developing such character, discipline and dedication to the craft is as key as learning the pentatonic scale when it comes to the pursuit of making music. It’s the only way to become a GOAT in any field- Time on task/sweat equity. I better pick up my axe and get back in the dojo (the studio lol). Gotta get the shots up in the gym
Im legit not sure if I've ever heard Thom laugh until now.
Or at least not awkwardly
How? He has the greatest laughter in the world though, it makes me so happy.
@@omiddoesnotomit9320 😂
I love to hear him laugh, it is so joyful and contagious
hyuck hyuck hyuck
Kid A and Amnesiac wouldn't be half as iconic without his art
That's not true... The music always comes first. If no albums had albums art it would still be right up there as one of the top ten ever.
Sure I looked at it but it wasn't a massive interest at first.
debatable tbh
I wouldn't say that's true, however I can't imagine the artwork looking like anything else.
Agree it's like a video for a song. Most of the time there is no need of a video. Better your own imagination
@@focoff no a video is a bonus, could probably say no need for a video if they're crap but Radiohead always release great videos
This makes me so happy holy shit
Nyaaaaasss
Love you so much
Scram, check mark
No way bandsrand
Bandstaand
Can't they just make a series with every one-hour episode being on each album's artwork ?
I’d love that too!
I would love that!
th-cam.com/video/M5_Dcgewa1Q/w-d-xo.html
Stanly covers all of them in this video
Gr8 idea
I wouldn’t be alive without Radiohead. I’m serious.
6 likes. Everything is indeed in it’s right place at the time I’m writing this.
Ah, same here.
I’m glad you’re here cj (:
@@emma-xt5iy Aw tysm❤️
Same fam. I'm in clinical depression and Kid A helped me get through it.
Thom seems even more inspired than hes ever been. So good to see him in good spirits.
He has love in his heart again.
You gotta dig how these guys put so much thought into what they do
It's true, art is definitely a big part of this band.
Artists tend to do that.
@@welp3904 Sure thing. I do believe that for certain things it's not the case though. Like the lyrics in Paranoid Android for example. I remember Yorke saying most of them weren't personal at all.
The crazy thing is if each Radiohead album cover had a sound it would be the Radiohead album.
Thoms aged so well I could listen to him all day not just a genius and a great musician also a humble and decent person
I don't think he's very humble. Just being honest.
lol he looks 70.. it's because he's vegan
@@amanda3172 you obviously don't realise how many other people are vegan these days, stress is probably what aged him
@@NickSBailey I do realize. Not that many. They’re are mainly white and liberal
@@NickSBailey (probably) Stress and a heavy (and unfortunate) indulgence in drugs and alcohol at a young age.
Or it could be just faulty genetics, but I don't know.
it makes me so happy to see thom nowadays. he seems really proud of all these artworks and what theyre putting out currently, and he looks a lot more comfortable and at ease :) (eating well. no more microwaved dinners and saturated fats.)
Not drinking too much.
with some dollars and cents, the pounds and pence, and the mark and the yen?
Thom, you seems so happy, and so outgoing. I love seeing that.
I think he might just has been a shy extrovert
@@sppukiwk4859 No I think he's a selective person. I'm the same. There's some people with I m shy and not talkative and there's other with I am more outgoing and confident with. I think thom is the same and he's the kind of guy who analyze before everything.
ive noticed a switch around a moon shaped pool honestly
@@sppukiwk4859 no fucking way. He’s introverted as it comes. He’s just older now so he’s developed his more “weaker” side
@@ambre6490 but theres no tiiiiiiiimme
Kid A still sounds futuristic, absolutely stunning work of art.
Thom really does seem happier at this point in his life.
Like Spinning Plates works so freakin well as background music!
Think I’m going to go to bed listening to Amnesiac now. What an awesome, yet haunting album.
My favorite Radiohead album
One of their best.
Top 5 for damn sure
This could do with been an hour long documentary, it is fascinating.
Stanley Donwood is a great artist.
Seriously, that "Balkans" painting gives me chills. It's incredible.
The collaboration between Thom yorke and the graphics artist emphasize the spirit of Radiohead
I remember purchasing Kid A back in the day... and there was a hidden art booklet ! Pretty cool stuff.
Yes this was so amazing!
I am happy to see Radiohead still making albums
Or at least, still active
LP 10 is in work
@@leehiro4840 I wish more ppl would donate music like this new music is so trash
@@itsstyled8110 As someone who could be called old, I can tell you that every generation I have been witness too, including those before me, as in my parents, grandparents, great, and great great grandparents, has said this about the "music now" regardless of when the now occurred.
@@d.rabbitwhite ye but I wish like rock and all that were big again
I wish Radiohead had been included in Twn Peaks: The Return. That would have been BALLER!!!
Yeah...I agree. But it's hard to improve on the perfection that is The Return. I do feel those vibes n tones together though yr right. I remember Kid A ending a Sopranos episode. That was amazing
@@jasonlawson01 100%
@@jasonlawson01 Sopranos used Aphex Twin to close out season 3 as well.
@@joelwoods7149 damn fine reply 👍😉
Match made in heaven
This feels like a comedy sketch for some reason
they're both naturally quite funny guys i think, in a sometimes accidental way
The camera work didn't help, especially in 4:59 with the shaky zooming in on Thom as if he's gonna throw an awkward punchline at any second ala The Office.
Thom and Stanley together are always a dark comedic duo. They operate on the same wavelengths.
@@pimposki6232 only time i've ever managed to see radiohead live, thom was wearing a shirt and tie and after a song in the middle of the show he stopped and said 'yeah sorry about the tie, i've got a job interview after this'
Because the paintings are so bad and they are so proud
Kid A & Amnesiac are my 2 favourite album covers of theirs. All the artwork from that period is just phenomenal. What Stanley said about Radiohead being a band that's just as committed to the visuals as the music really rings true. So glad to see a deeper discussion of that side of things from that time by these guys. Thanks for uploading!
You really can't look at those paintings without hearing their music. Beautiful.
Love how theyre still doing soo much that just makes them happy but also us
Probably the only thing I'm nostalgic about in my teens are these albums.
What a beautiful thing. Good for them. Wish I was in London for it.
Most geniuses of Thom Yorke's stature are aloof & hidden away in luxury estates - it's cool to see him so casual, open, & personable nowadays. Meeting people got easier.
I LOVE radiohead with all of my damn heart. Precious precious band and humans.
They could make a 2 hour documentary about this and I would watch it over and over.
Samurai hair Thom is on another level.
The Kid A Mnesia Exhibition for the ps5 is absolutely stunning
These are the reasons why I love this band so much. Every avenue has been explored creatively to make something wonderful.
I love Radioheads art, its so iconic and beatiful. I got the chance to buy the CD for A moon Shaped Pool and the art book is beautiful. Im so happy to see Radiohead doing something kinda new xD
Watching him smile and talk passionately about things is so wholesomee
Great video. Thanks for uploading. Real glad to see the boys talking in such a carefree manner. Can't wait to see what they cooked up
That’s a real gem of a video, with all the greatest things in one place; the genius that is Thom Yorke, Radiohead music and iconic art. 😍
Thom is really happy here because Kid A and Amnesiac was a very positive time in his life and he remembers it very fondly. With OKNOTOK he just has memories of regret and his depression (which is shown in Meeting People is Easy). It might be the album that let him have the freedom to experiment with Kid A and Amnesiac but he wasn’t able to handle the pressure and fame that came with OK Computer. Thom doesn’t like to talk about it because he’s wasn’t proud of himself. But with Kid A he was rejuvenated and (somewhat) comfortable to continue and thank God for that
When I discovered RADIOHEAD 25 years ago I knew they were one of those bands that are brilliant and rare. Here we are in 2021 and there's no band who compares.
I really like to see how both of you explain what you have created without feeling weird or self conscious about it. I feel like you cannot see the art without listening to the music to really understand it. Also, the songs are made better when you see the art. The two complement each other very well. I am glad both of you are proud of your creation and I look forward to see what the next creative period (album and art) brings!
Thom Yorke having fun. Awesome :)
Stanley is right, I always imagine there music fitting so well with the art that portrays it.
5:44 "I'm proud of this period"... I love that. This was Thom's most productive era, as I remember reading somewhere. Kid A and Amnesiac are masterpieces.
The rest of their albums are masterpieces as well haha
KidA and Amnesiac were more than masterpieces, they were (and still are), revolutionary. They changed the pop/rock music like a very few albums did in the past.
Only Kid A, Amnesiac sucks.
@@papupilinudo9170 while it's no kid a, I certainly don't think it sucks.
Truly lovely people making beautiful music and artwork. Thank you, Radiohead and Stanley.
I went out and bought the book from Stanley and found it interesting to see so much of what they had done and the influence he had on Thom, to be able to enhance his music through the art he was able to generate in a different medium than music. Greatly appreciate this look into these thought through a video thank you.
These guys just put me in such a better head space. I love the way they think & see things.
Fully authentic musician and fully authentic painter ♥️
I am very Happy, thanks Thom Yorke, ..... You are this adorable
Bloody brilliant
I remember borrowing the Kid A cd from a friend of mine, maybe a year or two after it had been released, and it had a black piece for the tray where you clipped the disc in. But through the little hole you could see there was art on the inside of the back cover, and I was curious, so I popped the case apart and out fell a booklet full of art. My friend had had the album for years and had never even noticed it there. Felt like such an incredible secret to have found.
Holy shit, I've had it since it came out, and I've never noticed, but I will look when I get home. Thank you
@@16dbuse ooooo i wanna know if you got the secret version too!
Really nice to see the process behind these works.
I LOVE YOU THOM
I love these abstract art, it fits perfectly with the songs. But It feels like he puts a lot of effort on b-sides projects than the main albums.
Hah
Great to see the background behind these images that we've all seen for so many years now, and to put a face to Stanley's name!
When you consider how private both these individuals are, their being so open about their collaboration and their art speaks volumes about how much they respect Art and each other.
Stan did a pretty cool piece on Boris johnson. He named it "Boris the johnson" 😀
Lmao
Always have been so intrigued by this art
I am so happy ❤️❤️❤️
Suddenly I realise how these images are so so integral to the album….my god.
Not just a amazing and on point musician but a inspiring artist too, what a combo, I could watch these two at work all day,
Thom yorke's son put out a song!!!! He's name is Noah yorke and the song is called Trying to hard (lullaby) and it's amazing.
Woah! Thanks for spreading the word, I would never have heard about that!
@@elrabeechum5180 sure :) enjoy!
in Spotify I looked for it and it did not appear.
th-cam.com/video/jAfwUpCBEcI/w-d-xo.html aquí está la canción
I would say it sounds very derivative of his dad's work. But it shows enormous promise, and he's very young. Hasn't found his voice yet. But I think he will.
Artworknya, musiknya, orangnya, lebih satu semua. Amazing.
I was reading the comments. I see I'm not the only one that has a soft heart for thom. He's so sweet and vulnerable. Such a wonderful group here.
"I started using this white stuff" - Stanley
That’s how he’s so quick!
It's been an absolute honor to watch Thom and company grow into the band they are today. I was 12 when I first heard Pablo Honey and I'm 40 now. They truly saved my life on more than one occasion. Happy Thom dancing is one of the greatest things on Earth and I can't wait to see them live a 4th time.🖤
Agreed! I was 12 when Pablo came out. Got a Kid A tattoo when I was 21 ish and this has really felt like “my” band for most of my life. Driving along country lanes listening to Radiohead (and other albums from the era like Moby Play) has gotten me through so many difficult times, and I’m sure will again. I’m glad other people feel the same way. May every generation have artists like this that can help give shape to their lives.
I remember 2001 very well. I had lost 100 Lbs over a 2 year time-frame and would come home and listen to Radiohead after my workouts to help me relax and sleep. Although quite an accomplishment, Fitter Happier always stuck in my mind and was right on. Being Fitter Happier is not what it's all about, but it's hard to be happy if you're not fit and don't have the energy to do anything. No instruction manual for Life!
After obsessing over Radiohead and recording every song and live performance I heard on the radio, I finally got my hands on my first Radiohead album, Kid A. I would sit and stare at the artwork while listening to the music and they both complimented each other wonderfully. Needless to say, it had a huge impact on me. It's great to see and hear them talk about it after so many years.
Wait...you tellin me Stanley Donwood's studio is in my home town and I never even knew?!
I was just wondering where the hell it would be... and you're home town is ?
@@magalicomte5078 Brighton!
Those paintings are just absolutely beautiful. Great to hear them tell the stories too. Cheers!
His art is apart of the Radiohead listening experience and always will be. There is nothing more complementary I could say about what he creates. It fits perfectly.
The cover to Kid A is my favourite. It gives me this feeling of being in the deeply lonely, fantastical world of old fantasy books. Lost in the mountains like Gollum, in a world between Middle Earth and an infinite DMT trip, but making the isolation, the smell of moss, the lost expansiveness of it all - the main story.
The universal sigh wallpaper is so perfect
I love a wall
Paper life
Nice
So nice seeing Thom and Stanley in the same room.
My dad was a huge fan of Radiohead. Ever since he showed me OK Computer I was absolutely hooked, and I've been a Radio-head ever since. I wish Thom and the rest of the gang all the best!
Love these guys. They get it
realizing ourselves in bliss is a lifetime duty for the world looking at us.
God bless you Thom!
I am sad we didn't get a new album, but Radiohead IS art. Their works are masterpieces in their own right.
Love Thom! Everything about this man, well my thoughts of how he may be. He is just beautiful.
A couple of hopelessly weird brilliant artists and I'm here for every moment of it
As a life long Radiohead fan this is the first time I’ve seen the man behind the paintbrush. Always remember getting the new albums, track 1 on, sleeve out and just simply getting lost in the visuals and the music. Absolute pleasure every time. Thank you.
That was awesome. Release drops tomorrow and I’m beyond excited. I need it now.
True art behind art.
Esta entrevista es algo supremo, en 30 años será oro puro
his artworks are fucking amazing
Kinda cool seeing Thom Yorke and Stephan Bodzin collaborating like that
Love it. All of it. All of it.
I really liked that picture they both laughed at!
Happy birthday, Thom.
No words...straight into my core self ...Thanks,love the art which ofcourse includes you,we and everything and anything...wish you well,Sylvia
Beautiful
it's so refreshing seeing them again after so long
My birthday gift! Thank you ❤️. RADIOHEAD FAN FOREVER!
Love seeing Thom in such great spirits. Watching this is a beautiful thing. The art & music combining on a record is a perfect partnership
It kills me that the giant “The Eraser” artwork is covered up!
It warms my soul to see Thom happy and smiling.
I’m beyond excited for this
I love Thom
