No one talks about how fucking amazing Bloom's bassline is.
+Nathan Joyce it glues all of the chaos together.
+Nathan Joyce This whole song is so fucking amazing !!
+Nathan Joyce They (Maybe Thom specifically) said in an interview that it wasn't really a song to them until Colin found the bassline for it. Prior to that it was just more of a sketch.... Colin's basslines, the diversity of Phil's drumming styles and Ed's knack for soundscapes/sound design do not get enough credit, everyone's all like "thom and jonny thom and jonny" and it's bullshit, the 5 of them are vital to what Radiohead is. Er, 6 if you count Nigel which ya really fucking should
+Nathan Joyce No one talks about how Ed never supplies the forward echo backing vocals for the second verse.
+Nathan Joyce It was actually the first thing on the whole album that stuck with me on the first couple of listens. You could even call it my gateway into this extremely dense record! Colin does not get the credit he deserves as a contemporary rock (and beyond) bassist!
Imagine creating something as perfectly chaotic and beautiful as this, and not only is it *not* a career-defining high point of your life, it's just another day at the office. Bravo Radiohead.
I travelled the oceans for 10 years on these big shells of steel , powered by massive engines. But there are times when we engineers come out from the bowels of the engine room after a watch to see the sunrise in the middle of the Atlantic , it's a feeling that's indescribable.
But when I hear 'Bloom' from Radiohead's album 'The king of Limbs' , the syncopated polyrhythmic drums, the blaring horns remind me of the hustle and chaos of the engine room, and Thom Yorkes expansive voice that reminds me of the ocean, it's like being back on board again.
painted a nice picture man *thumbs up
This song really is like an anthem of the sea, every version of it (studio; basement; Thom Yorke’s piano; Hans Zimmer) feels like sea in its different moods.
That’s powerful.
Wow...brilliantly explained from your experience
tá doidão né man
This has to be one of the most difficult songs to perform live like this. The way Thom's delay plays into itself like that is brilliant. And that's just one part. There are four other ppl doing completely different but equally intricate parts. When you add the horns it's like 6 completely different songs in one. My mind would literally crumble.
It's like one hair away from complete chaos, but again and again it cristallizes into a new motif that makes perfect sense. Incredible.
Figuratively.
Had anyone mentioned how great the camera crew are. The way they frame each shot is impeccable.
Agreed
the entire production is incredible, amazing sound and acoustics and lighting etc
That singer's pretty good too innit
And Jonny on the drums. How cool is that.
how did they do the effect?
King of limbs is criminally underrated.
I am a crimina😔😔😔😔😞😞
yes! probably the best stuff they did together with in Rainbows.
Nah it's just basement version is too superior
TRUE!
The mix of that album is shit. Just listen to this performance. No comparison at all. This live set is a masterpiece. King of limbs is still mediocre in it's mixing.
- So why does this still hurt?
- Don't blow your mind with why
Yeah, that hit me...
mind explaining?
@@violethill4454 Probably means that pain is part of life and that you shouldn't worry too much about it because that's life sometimes it will hurt sometimes it will be nice, just my interpretation i guess.
I understand this. Not sure how to put it into words. I was addicted to opiates for about 12 years. I thought once I quit then for good ( which I’m at about 1 year clean now) I’d be happy. But on the contrary, I’m lost, confused and pretty depressed. I’ve spent the last two years trying to rebuild my self esteem by asking myself deep hard questions. Why? But all I find in that question is self blame. Maybe it’s time I give up on why and just move on. Weird how a simple line in a song can really touch your heart.
stoicism..
This line is a reminder. Noted 📝
I love how the bass coming in at 1:14 suddenly makes the song feel warmer like when the first sip of alcohol sets in and makes you feel all fuzzy.
oh my god I love how you described it
Nice likening there!
yikes dude
I'm so drunk right now I'm higher than the fucking wall
lol lightweight
the only band that can combine electronic music, jazz, psychedelic, and alternative and make it sound amazing
they are amazing. big inspiration.
The drumming in this song with Phil, Jonny and Clive Deamer is absolutely amazing. It is an extraordinarily complex syncopated, polymorphic masterpiece!
Radiohead members:
-The bald one
-The short one
-The tall one
-The emo one
-The Goblin one
The Thom Yorke one
@@frostymarbles2655 Thom is the goblin lol
Radiohead and Thom
I’d say Jonny Greenwood is the goblin one hahaha
Who's the goblin?
This performance specifically is one of the best things Radiohead have ever done.
I just have to say this. I'm 39, and I've been a crazy Radiohead fan for 20+ years now. Their music has been by my side every step of the way as I transitioned from a girl into a woman, then a mother. The music and lyrics spoke to me because I could relate to so much of it. I had every album, ep, b side, whatever I could find. I started buying their albums on their release date (or downloading as soon as soon as they became available) when OK Computer was released. I've seen them once each concert tour, starting with OK Computer, for a total of six times. They are my heart and I love them.
So, this is the part I have to say because...well...I'll just say it. In August 2010 my dad was diagnosed with lung cancer. I moved in with him and my mother so I could help take care of him until the end. I was very close to my dad my whole life and my worst nightmare was now our reality. So on February 18, 2011, after holding my dad's hand and watching him take his last breath, which I had never seen anyone else do before and haven't since...I needed my Radiohead more than ever. Hospice came right away to take care of things, dress him, and before I knew it, he was gone and I had never felt more empty in my life. At this point I desperately needed to try to give my brain/head/heart/soul some sort of break, if that was at all possible. So I went upstairs to my room to be alone. I was checking my email as I was putting on my headphones and grabbing my ipod when I see this email from a friend of mine asking me what I thought of the new Radiohead album, TKOL. Immediately I went to atease and...confirmed! Numb with grief and disbelief, I allowed this amazing new album to carry me away from my despair, if only for a moment. I was astonished by it's brilliance and beauty, and how it seemed to be written just for me. And then, as it drew to a close, Thom floored me with exactly the message I needed to hear... "If you think this is over then you're wrong". Your music (TKOL in particular) helped me in a way that nothing else could while I was in mourning. And I could never thank you enough.
Thank YOU friend for sharing this with us.
thank you. we love you ;)
which songs of TKOL that strike your feeling most?
Jennifer Logan Beets amazing comment. I had a girlfriend in high school who loved radiohead like that. she would burn shows for me. i remember she burnt the show they played on 9/11 and another one in Berlin that had a great kid a with a harmonica part!
definitely a great band to grow up with.
listening to kid a driving around with a friend almost every night for a year changed my life.
when the warm tone of the flugelhorns come in at 3:00 and Thom doubles their melody...soo good
yes brother
you feel the tension really take off there, especially the line after, out of orbit
Since Kid A, all their albums peak several years after you first listen to them.
Truer words have never been spoken.
Spot-On!
Nah man...In Rainbows was a bomb dropped on me from day 1 and has been my favorite front to back ever since.
@@TheAdjuster1 To each his own, but Kid A might hit you right during a different season of life. That's how it worked for me.
I do agree. First time I listened to this I said this is shit. I found this live version yesterday, I can’t stop listening to it. Their talent is endlessness.
To be honest, I often feel like their live versions of several of their more "electric" songs blow the studio versions away because of the live element. It feels more acoustic, less robotic. It seems to have more layers.
The thing is, they're constrained by the number of band members when they play live, so it's a lot harder to get those layers than when they're in the studio with nearly infinite tracks to layer. So it must be some kind of alchemical magic.
Some of their new, post-EMI materials were translated better on stage. The studio versions are still rich, but on stage...Reckoner, Separator, Identikit, and this, become another kind of beautifully haunting beasts
The production of tkol in general was kinda disappointing, too messy and just sounds without sense
basically this, i really love basement ver of Lotus Flower
the studio ver one is kinda pale in comparison
The horns, the drums, the guitar, the bass; all perfect, just fucking perfect.
Just proves why Radiohead is worthy of the hype.
You ever hear music so good it sends shivers up your spine?
This does that to me.
That happened to me when I read your comment!
The way all that droning, off-time noise coalesces into a tangible chord progression by the time Thom starts singing is unbelievable.
A Moon Shaped Pool: live From the Basement, please!!!
PRA ONTEM!!!!
agree
yes please
so nice isn't it heather?
just beautiful
This does not get the credit it deserves. Everyone loves In Rainbows Live From the Basement, but nothing from that set requires them to work anywhere near this hard. This song is a masterpiece
I'm of the opinion that this might just be some of their best work, right here.
Agreed. An absolute masterpiece.
Jigsaw Falling Into Place makes Phil break a sweat but that's about it
Open your mouth wide
The universal sigh
And while the ocean blooms
It's what keeps me alive
So why does it still hurt?
Don't blow your mind with why
I'm moving out of orbit
Turning in somersaults
A giant turtle's eyes
Jellyfish swim by
Aww I always thought he said “a universe of size”
Thank you! 🙏🏻
I've listened to Radiohead songs on youtube so much these past couple of months. Present tense and the numbers with the cr-78, videotape, nude, weird fishes and staircase from the basement, the list goes on and on. The comments on these videos have become strangely familiar at this point since I've read them so many times, and I just wanted to go ahead and say that I love these comment sections, full of people who feel like me and who love Radiohead as much as I do.
Long live the radiohead fellas and those who have the fortune to know their music
Lol now you are a part of it... I feel the same way too!
yes my dude, yes! I've discovered radiohead for myself not so long ago i mean i knew there was a band and i heard some pop tunes but the rest of songs just would never caught me. now i'm completely confident that this is the one of the best music bands ever walked on Earth. God bless all of you, masters!
Yeah, Weird Fishes is in my top 3 now, its so so good
I just realized. Bloom might be their best song.
I ve been saying this for years man.most underrated radiohead song ever.
Not their best, but definitely one of their best.
Is in the top 3 for me. One of their most unique and well crafted songs. Could even be the best.
@@oguztokur3673 agreed, my friend
@@waterglas21 bloom is definitely awesome but I cannot get the same eternal feeling from the studio version, this version is something else, boyz be jammin
This song just fucking floors me, it's perfection. Such a simple bass line ties in the drums and then Thom's voice and lyrics just complete it. It has brought me to tears numerous times. And it will continue to do so until the day I die. Thank you Radiohead for making people's lives better
Thank you for this comment.
It’s entirely understandable this is fuckin different league
compared to the album version , this live performance absolutely blows me away . a whole other level
This is not music, this is magic
Radiohead are an amazing live band, you think of something like 15 step and you are like "how the fuck do they get that beat and translate it into a live performance?" and they do, they always blow my mind. What a group of talented musicians, truly amazing.
Radiohead is like wine, with the time is gettin better
agustin genis white wine and sleeping pills
red
+agustin genis I remember when I first heard In Rainbows by radiohead i thought, this is going to take forever to get into. A month later here I am with every album made by Thom Yorke downloaded on my phone.
+마음 help me get back to your arms
+agustin genis naah... it's one of their weaker albums. Great in it's own way, but just not as great in general compared to their previous works.
i just realized this song literally blooms the song becomes much more grand when the bass and horns come on
The best singular representation of Radiohead in a single song. Mix it all together, and it becomes this. Masterpiece. Defining. Radiohead.
This song is so unique. Could potentially be chaotic but it all blends together so well. TALENT
Radiohead has the best thing going. Just five guys sitting around making sounds and it comes out perfectly.
'Chaotic' guitar looping + hypnotic drums + a relaxing bass line. They seem a very weird combination, but somehow Radiohead manages to put them together to make this masterpiece. Bravo Radiohead
and +dreamlike horns section
Arr Leo Heavens Flügenhorns!
they arent looping the guitars
@@RKTologist yeah just a delay pedal with a lot of feedback
Awesome shit to be an artist
I don't understand how human beings can create something like this.
This is what human beings can create WITH this :) Awesome, no?
th-cam.com/video/ODsUpq0WAYY/w-d-xo.html
i dont think thom yorke can even be classified as human
dallashood67 England
dallashood67 WE HAVE THE TECHNOLOGY
+bingo bongo What does that mean?
My favourite Radiohead drummer is the bald one.
Hahahahahahahaha
😂😂😂😂
Well sir, we've looked at your credentials and it appears to us that you are bald. Congratulations, you're hired.
I appreciate this is a joke but my favourite Radiohead drummer IS the bald one - ie Clive Deamer (pads then full kit then back to pads) not Phil Selway. That man just oozes seemingly effortless class. Been a fan of his work for 22+ years. Glad he's touring with them again.
I prefer the CR78.
I love how Thom Yorke has really started to use his voice as an instrument in recent years.
He's always used it as such.
MisAnnThorpe 👍👍👍👍
I saw an interview a few years ago, following the Ok Computer Tour where Thom said he didn't feel confortable about his voice. He was saying he was having singing lessons so he could use better his voice and feel more confortable with it.
Perhaps the most retarded shit I've read all day
@@tallon3925 yeah, im amazed by how pouseurish comments under radiohead songs are
This live version sounds so much better than the studio version ever did, it sounds so much more fully realized
i’ll say it, the king of limbs is absURDLY underrated
it is, but to be fair, the studio recordings are pretty ass, but the songs shine when they're played live
@@monarchyde4984 i personally think that both versions are great equally, but i can see why you would think that
@@ghostrhythm i mean i commented this at a bad mood. i agree that both are great.
@@monarchyde4984 Nah, i think you were right at first. The recording one seems to be just plainly badly mixed for some reason. But this one is really well done and made me really like many songs that i couldn't even hear fully in the album.
honestly, it could be confirmation bias, or perhaps I got used to the way it was mixed; its concept reminds me of 70s B-grade film soundtracks, even some A-grade depending, can’t put my finger on it.
The live and studio versions have their own vibe and landscape, like two starkly contrasting interpretations from the same band…and I love it.
This video alone demonstrates how Thom Yorke is by far one of the greatest singers of all time
the most beautiful, magic and divine song i've ever heard. Makes me feel like i'm a part of something bigger. something unearthly. The live version is way better than the record.
Completely.....agree....it' magical!!!💫💫💫
Stronger energy and they lived with it for longer to discover the perfect tempo
This song has dug itself deeper into my brain than any other Radiohead song ever has which is saying quite a bit, they've reached a new level of artistic release, Thom just keeps getting better with age.
Now this is a Radiohead song the twenty-something ambitious garageband guys will not cover on a local festival gig.
Alex Szabó Lmao tops comment
Where did the 20 somethings hurt you??? 😂
Props to the people who will practice really hard and keep rehearsing Bloom until they get it right.
They can try.but that would be the end of their career
@@oguztokur3673 :D
When that bassline comes in, it's like lowering yourself into a nice soothing bubblebath.
Lovely.
Radiohead caught my attention when my son did, one of many now, his recital song at the music academy he attended. He blew me away and, who was this band? I've been hooked since. When I listen to one of their songs I say it's my favourite until I listen to the next and say oh wait, that's my favourite and it just keeps going this way. I just love what they do. We promised each other that we would go see them should they perform here. Two weeks later it was announced they were coming. My two sons and I are huge fans and will be seeing them live this summer. We can't wait!
How was the concert?
@@raynymph8514First, in reference to finding Radiohead and their son covering them "Radiohead caught my attention when my son did, one of many now, his recital song "
As for how the recital went: *"He blew me away "*
i got my father addicted to radiohead in quite a similar way 🤣
i play guitar and i played paranoid android one day, when he heard it he asked me the band and since then well, he aint listenin' to anything else hahaha
@@OfficialMyxomatosis i know, awesome, isnt ?
I'm making it official. I am addicted to this band.
There's no other way.
It's been a year since I've started to listen Radiohead every fucking day!
Kamszoot Same
amartinblueplanet Kamszoot ***** Same.
same
amartinblueplanet 4.5 year long fan here. You're on for a long trip.
A band at the height of their powers. Untouchable
Bloom is my favourite song in this album. You feel like some pure and massive thing being squeezed into your brain gradually, and finally it just burst out.
It's my first ever comment on a youtube thread so, be gentle. I'm 41 and fell in love today with this band, after decades of resistance. Mainly because of this song. And my question is...who thinks this is about the experience of beeing a surfer?
RPTW73
Glad you fall in love with this one but thinking that Bloom just about surfing would be very clichéd and non radioheadish even though lyrics are extremely universal and kind of haiku style which brings many interpretation.
EndoTM Thanx for your reply. Of course every interpretation has is own POV, but i have this clear picture of a surfer enter the sea near the sunset and this lyrics describe that feeling:
Open your mouth wide (as you dive into the ocean)
The universal sigh (it's such a great moment)
And while the ocean blooms ( = waves breaking)
It's what keeps me alive
So why does it still hurt? (when you try to forget something so hard)
Don't blow your mind with why (you do if you let it go)
I'm moving out of orbit (because it's so good)
Turning in somersaults (wipe out's)
A giant turtle's eyes
Jellyfish swim by
***** Thanx for your reply. Since i'm a fan, i relistened to all the records and this last one is my favourite...there are some pearls like this one and give up the ghost. I think they found a formula that they can relate to (looking back at all the history, with the ups and downs) and are refining it, specially since In Rainbows. The Basement concerts are really magical and you can feel the vibe between the band. They are doing their own thing and are happily about it. Hope they keep doing it for a long, long time...i'm 42 now and i'm glad i found them...sometimes i just need to listen to this and all is well in the world :) Cheers!
RPTW73 Congratulations on falling in love. Enjoy the music and correlate it to whatever you'd like to. This is the beautiful thing about radiohead's music!!
EndoTM Could it not be a bit cliche to judge the personal connection and correlations one may form when they experience certain music:) Especially Radiohead's music, the thrilling beauty of it's composition is in the fact that it leaves so much room for personal interpretation and an avenue for one to harbor it as their own!:) Love & more love to you. i respect your opinion and the forum for us all to speak up:)
Trust me, radiohead will never grow old on you. The music genres I listen to have changed many times. But there has always been this one constant through all those years. Radiohead. The most innovating band I know & forever in my heart.
that build up to the trumpet choral section is just godly
Nexus3music Those aren't trumpets, they're flügelhorns!
Nexus3music try listening to it on acid (if your into such fun) blows your head clean off masterpiece
Nexus3music Very Kid A-esque
VERY majestic.
it will change your life
This song will forever remind me of my daughter's bipolar condition. It came out at the exact time and helped me get through it. It kind of reminds me of the organized chaos that must be in her head, it's still a struggle for her. I still love this tune, and her..
fantastic comment...organised chaos, now thats a song
youre an amazing father.
One of the funniest ways to quickly separate the musically deaf from the musically observant is whether Bloom sounds like a band whose timing is completely off, or, whose timing is utterly brilliant.
I can't tell if this version is actually better than the album version or is it just because you can see all their intricate instrumentation and appreciate it better
+J T no, this is much better
I like how everyone forgets how incredibly talented the rest of the band is. Thom is great, but come on.
No i fell like everyone forgets how great thom is, i mean johnnys great but, come on
The collaborative genius that is Radiohead. Indeed, not one man, but a collective mind (head).
what would the band be without jonny?
I really take note as to what each individual adds to the band honestly
it really keeps me.hooked on listening
Fr Colin has to be one of my favorite bassist s and Phil is a human kit
Seeing Colin jump at 4:10 😌
Around 2:25 thom makes the "Oh-AH Oh-AH" cry I used to have as a baby...Of course I don't remember, but my parents have imitated it enough times. And when I sing along I can kind of hear it. Fits with the themes of the song/album, I think.
I think its kinda smart how the song peaks only half-way through and never gets back to that level. This leaves the listener kinda unsatisfied and makes him/her want to play it again.
this is exactly what I was thinking about!
Vadim Arkhipov
IMO it peaks at when he says "it keeps me alive" not sure if that's what you mean or not.
i cant select any specific place of the song. My words were referred to the whole song ))
The fact that most of other bands and musicians entire discographies aren't nearly as good as this song is and yet this is just another Radiohead song really shows how amazing and brilliant this band truly is, thank you Radiohead for making such beautiful music.
this is Radiohead best song imo and this is their best album. Peak music right here
Honestly love both this version and the original one too. King of Limbs is one of my favorite Radiohead albums.
What are the odds of these gifted musical masters going to the same school and becoming friends and creating what gems they've shared xx
I love when Thom does his thing in 4:43 and then the music just explodes
I'm still amazed by this performance. First seems so crazy and senseless, but then they just turn it into a freaking whole with a lot of sens. Best band of its generation, by far.
That bass line is majestic! this is the best version to me
i believe this is the best live performance of any song ever
I love how, from a chaos, you got something beautiful
This is the definition of cerebral. This must be what a wavelength feels like.
Thom's Jazzmaster is absolutely beautiful
Agreed.
Right nice tone too
Love the high note bass part around 3:30 to match the horns. Subtle but powerful.
When i heard the studio version for the first time i was like "Eh, some parts are cool but this is pretty messy and robotic... i don't know if i can get used to this"
But holy shit, when i heard THIS version, total blown away, these guys are just pure genius...
Nicolás Riveros It's the chorus part. It's a fucking mindblow.
yeah, the studio version sucks hard.
Album version sounds like a demo
@Merlmelada de Tomate
oh yeah, the build up to the chorus is absolutely outstanding
What are you talking about like spinning plates studio version is genius
johnny and phil jam it out towards the end real good. what is so great about johnny is that he contributes so much more than just guitar playing to this band. the percussion is so cool in this song.
When I was still working in London and doing 14-16hours a day 5 days a week as a chef, this was my morning waking up song as I was speed walking to catch the tube. Worked better than any energy drink I've ever tried.
This is one of those songs that no matter how much you turn it up, you can't get it loud enough
this is just 10x better than the album version
I couldn't agree more
+centipede127 I wouldn't say that. When you hear the album version, you don't really get it, but this is easier to digest. After hearing this, you go back and understand the album version more. I don't know which one I like better.
Everything they do outside the albums sounds better.
@@SmolJordan i was just thinking this! This version makes me appreciate the album version more.
Best version is thom and his piano
thoms all like "everyone who hated on the studio version of this is gonna regret that... im great and i know it damn it..."
Love you Thom
It's way to chaotic but it shows how just noises together can collide in something pretty and vibrant, just flowing with his voice, really love it
This version of the song is absolutely fantastic. I wish they'd release KOL in live format.
These are the same guys who were at the Beach House incident. Man, it’s crazy how they evolved!
Ed's hair is fantastic here
I actually find Philip's hair to be quite nice.
IzTARD
Which of the two Phils?
I kinda imagined Greenwood playing bongos on this track...he's goofy like that. (don't worry, johny, i love you more for it)
( ) The trumpet buildup
( ) The awesome bass line
( ) The hypnotic guitar work
(x) Ed's hair
3:53 OMG I love that drop
Thom transcendent. Quite possibly their finest hour.
You can`t imagine the complexity of this song until you see this video.
Feels like I'm floating in the gigantic ocean...
this song is the main track of Blue Planet II XD
alex angulo rojas also it was inspired by the first blue plant or so I heard
@@shamsa9182 yeah they wrote the song after they watched the first BP
This is the best thing I’ve ever seen in my life….
this composure is what pulling an all nighter and hearing the birds chirp in that odd blurry morning feels like.
Especially when they begin the gig with it and it's the first few seconds of your life you hear and see Radiohead live.
Why? Why is this song so perfect? I can't understand... 🎸🥁🎺😌
The song gets elevated to a whole new level at 4:44
This is even better than the album version. One of the things I like about Radiohead is that the guys will play anything to make it sound better and there are no egos too big. "Johnny. What if you played two snare drums throughout this?" and Johnny said "Sure".
This has to be one of the most incredible performances in the history of man... I'm consistently blown away by this video.
The fact that any of these crazy musicians can just with no ego take a back seat and drum on snares for 5 minutes is incredible
This is a masterpiece, a pure act of musical genius.
king of limbs is underrated af.... the textures and the soundscape.. the layers... the atmosphere... this is a true masterpiece... and then you have codex, lotus flower, give up the ghost, little by little...its really... a really amazing album plus it has its character... sounds different from the rest and thats coming after 30 years of constant exploration in terms of sound, to the greatest detail... mind blowing..
Music and rhythm find their way into the secret places of the soul
I can`t even describe how intense of a head bobbing session I just had lol This video evokes something deep within...something I forgot, but can almost remember. And right when I`m about to remember, the video ends. Then I have to go back.
This is so intense and cathartic. The horns and Thoms voice carry it over the top. Insane.
This is a masterpiece.
masta piece
When you turn the opening track of your most controversial album into something that could've been the swansong track of an entire band, you know you've done something incredible.
Superior to the studio cut imo. Love the live horns. It would be great if a AMSP basement session shows up to maybe hear some live strings. :D
3 guys playing drums at the same time. Amazing.
jonny clive and phil
