Radiohead (Covers) - NYC Busker performs an acoustic Radiohead Set at the Metropolitan Ave. Subway

Музыка

Hello!
My name is Navzad Dabu. While living in Bushwick this past year, I frequented the Metropolitan G stop during the graveyard shifts, where Radiohead songs and the trickling down of late-night activities meet in perfect harmony.
This set represents a little window into a space that I hold sacred, not only as tribute to Radiohead's mercurial majesty, but also as gracious observation of these beautiful New Yorkers, themselves.
Thanks for listening and watching!

    A common theme of Radiohead is the monotony of life and the environment with the passing trains and folks coming and going enhances the power of the music, which is delivered by an amazing talent. It is our duty to support and protect artists such as this who bring beauty into lives and ask for little in return.

    I mean no disrespect but I don't think the monotony of life is a common theme of Radiohead's music at all. Of all the many things I may have felt about their work, the exploration of monotony is definitely not one of them.

    Hello Everyone, Thank you all for the kind love and support. And more thanks to all my new subscribers. This video was devised as a temporary goodbye to Bushwick as my job [I am a film editor by trade] had taken me elsewhere. The response and outreach its had has been truly touching and overwhelming. And to all those who were there that night that are just started to find this, as I see in comments here and there: Thank you, from the bottom of my heart, for taking the time to settle in that space with me. You all brought such enjoyment to me when watching this back. And you guys, every night I went down there, made my stay in New York so fucking incredible. To all who've asked about my Instagram... I do not have one 😅. My brain is horrible with it. I am however, finally able to begin working with a close friend and superb musician. We're slowly, but surely, progressing on our first EP - self-produced out in Joshua Tree, where I'm currently residing. The band is called "OxHunt." And hopefully the social media presence for that will be a bit more "active" as it develops. And this channel will be where I share further info. We are also working on getting to another video. I had to rent equipment and labor for this video as this was never something I had intended on up-keeping, nor do I intend to monetize as ads ruin everything. As such, along with my desire for unique environments and extended experiences, the videos are a bit more spread out than I would like. Thank you for the patience! And for those asking about this lovely guitar. It is a LAG Tramontane. It was given to me by a dear friend, David Myton, whose beloved dog, Daisy, passed away days before I posted this and why there is a dedication at the outset of the video. Thank you to everyone for *slowing down* and taking the time to listen! I so appreciate you.

I’ve just been listening to the video recording on my phone… so I can’t say how happy I am to have found you! Radiohead is my favorite band and you, my friend, capture their magic. From one fan to another, you’ve got something special here - thank you for sharing it with the world!

    That he wasn't completely ignored, that some people stayed and listened, and cheered and applauded, and threw in some change-has brought me back some degree of hope, and reinforces the will to continue in this path of music. It's all about touching people and sharing one beautiful moment together. I don't think he cared much whether anyone listened or not, whether anyone threw him a bone or not; there's no ego bleeding or being displayed-he was just there in his special place, pouring his heart out for no one. I think that was part of the allure, and that people shared in those moments, made it more special. I'm taking notes, thank you for sharing your beautiful soul, Monsieur Dabu.

    Hey, you might not see this but what you did with "There There" was pretty damn interesting. Totaly made it your own, which is pretty hard to do for Radiohead. I always liked the deep brooding aspect of "There there" like I can feel my soul getting dragged away into a deep dark forest on a cloudy moonlit night. You made it chipper though. Your version makes it like it's daytime in the desert and you're just getting by until the next town rolls up to your feet. Very cool.

Great work with the camera, every aspect from the video created the right atmosphere for Radiohead music; melancholy seen in the dark corridors of the station; loneliness from the continuos movement of the people, but no one was able to stay the whole concert; and "How to disappear completely" was a perfect song to end it up, showing how little are we in a big city, that each one of us could disappear today and the machine city would keep functioning.
