And that pos tape on the edge that you needed a box cutter to open.

For 25 years, Radiohead's "Fake Plastic Trees" has been in the background, but it's only now that I truly listen to it, truly feel every word. After eight years with my wife, at 42, I suddenly grasp the full weight of this song. It's strange how a familiar melody can suddenly hit differently. The tears I shed now aren't just for lost moments or past disillusionments, but for the painful acknowledgment of what I've experienced and felt in my relationship. Thom Yorke's voice, heavy with melancholy, touches me deeper than ever, resonating with my own fractures and revealing truths I had long ignored. It's a poignant revelation, sad yet beautifully unexpected.

This song reminds me of the feeling of trying to hold on to something you know was never real in the first place. Something that you try and prop up with an illusion of reality but deep down you feel it’s as illusory as the waking dreams you have of how things should be but never will be. Then it comes to a point where it all comes crashing down shattering in a myriad different pieces of what you thought was but never is. It can be anything. Love. Hope. Life. Your self image.

Thom Yorke saw Jeff Buckley live & said he was a big influence on his singing style i.e. using the whole range of his vocal abilities & the use of subtleties in his singing. He said this was the first song where he applied the inspiration he got from hearing Jeff Buckley. If anybody reading this has not heard Jeff Buckley's album Grace & you like Radiohead & Thom Yorke's singing style & range, then check out the full album on you tube. I'm not saying it sounds like a Radiohead album, but you can hear what Thom Yorke meant about the use of vocal range & expression, with power & with subtlety. It's a masterpiece of an album, great songs & a majestic vocal performance. What a loss Jeff Buckley is to the world of music. Great songwriter too.

“If I could be who you wanted, all the time…” I can't say anything about this part, it's simply kills me

Here’s my interpretation. I think it’s about how we hold onto relationships that are disappointing and ultimately fake. Deep down we know they are fake, but the idea of leaving them behind and being alone makes us feel that we would blow through the ceiling. We might think to ourselves “Maybe it really doesn’t get better than this”. So instead we keep watering our fake plastic trees in the hopes that they become something real. This process wears us out everyday because no matter how much we water that plant, the tree will never become real. We trade being alone with the feeling of dissatisfaction and emptiness because we can’t seem to let them go. We then realise we aren’t who they need either and become insecure about our place in their life, just as they are in ours. Two people destined to stay together who should’ve always been apart.

Sad and depressing songs has a cathartic effect for people that are sad or depressed. It gives them a sense of release and opening in a time of their lives when everything seemed to be stuck or closed. The effect then in turn doesn't make them happy, because sometimes sadness need not be avoided or evaded. A little embrace makes sadness a powerful driving force.

I know these lads have moved well beyond this song and this album. But I really hope they realize how awesome this song is. This is the one that got me started on my Radiohead journey. And it still gives me goosebumps all these years later.

This song continues to be in my daily playlist! I can’t listen to it enough and love singing with my heart and soul. It speaks to our inner child who wants real love in a fake world. What could be more cathartic ?

2023, this song makes even more sense than in 1997. I was 12 years old, poor kid in Brazil, and this song gave me the desire to learn English just to understand what the song was saying. I wanted to read the feelings in the lyrics. Radiohead changed my life for better for sure. 🇧🇷

First time I went to London, my friend took me to Camden. We walked around and then went to a small coffeeshop. The coffeeshop was empty. My friend went to the bathroom and I sat at a table by the window. I remember the water of the Regent's Canal flickering under the night lights. Suddenly, this song began playing in the radio. In the building by the other side of the canal, people were having a dance lesson (salsa, it seemed). I sat there in silence, just mesmerized at all the beauty this world has to offer. The right song, at the right place, at the right time. It was unforgettable.

Lyrics: [Verse 1] A green plastic watering can For a fake Chinese rubber plant In a fake plastic earth That she bought from a rubber man In a town full of rubber plans To get rid of itself [Chorus 1] It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out It wears her out [Verse 2] She lives with a broken man A cracked polystyrene man Who just crumbles and burns He used to do surgery For girls in the eighties But gravity always wins [Chorus 2] And it wears him out It wears him out It wears him out It wears [Verse 3] She looks like the real thing She tastes like the real thing My fake plastic love But I can't help the feeling I could blow through the ceiling If I just turn and run [Chorus 3] And it wears me out It wears me out It wears me out It wears me out [Outro] And if I could be who you wanted If I could be who you wanted All the time All the time

Being an angst ridden teenager when this came out in the 90s this really expressed my melancholy emotions perfectly. I felt imperfect and misunderstood and this expressed what I couldn't express. Radiohead defined me as a teenager growing up when other groups couldn't. They got me and I got them. They gave me the validation I craved and wanted. It was music for the jilted generation.

“It wears me out” this song is awesome

I was in a bar in Florida and they had an empty piano sitting there. In walked a very large Russian guy speaking broken English and he asked the bartender if he could play the piano. He started playing popular show tunes and no one was really paying attention to him . He saw me looking at him and he said to me what would you like to hear and I said I'm sure you don't know the music that I like and he replied try me. I said Radiohead. He started with Paranoid Android and played about 10 songs by Radiohead before he left. I asked the bartender who he was and he said I have no idea I've never seen him before. It was great almost like a ghost walked in played Radiohead and then disappeared. It was an interesting night that I enjoyed immensely. I think this memory of mine pretty much indicates how universal and overarching the music Radiohead makes.
