Teleharmonic side by side.
Such an unusual, fascinating tempo. Build and dissolve, build and dissolve.

Actually all they are doing is alternating from 5/4 time to 6/4 time and slightly altering the tempo. That is what gives it that feeling. Pretty cool.

@@supsup. @Max _: It’s 7 bars of 5/4 then a bar of 6/4. The slow section is 3 bars of 9/8 then a bar of 8/8
The opponening vocal melody is so catchy, been stuck in my head for months

truly an earsandworm of an oppenheimening vocal malady
Thom yorke and Jonny greenwood are just amazing. One of the best musical collaborations of all time… so glad they’ve retained such a close creative relationship over the decades.
One of the best things theyve ever done, but ive said that about 100 of his tracks at this point. Pure genius.

Thoms voice is bad.
This entire set was godly. Unreal.
One of the greatest musical experiences of my life.
Gorgeous melancholic sounds. Can't go wrong with Thom.
This song is so beautiful. The whimsical piano reminds me of the Vince Guaraldi score to the Peanuts specials, and I mean that as a high form of praise.

Agree, good ears 👍
One of the most beautiful song i've ever heard Thom Yorke is a gift
Thom sounds great! I actually love the little imperfections in his voice, and his vibrato lends some sophistication to the song. A unique voice and still going strong even as he gets older
These men.... beautiful.
Radiohead Needs to Play live tour AMSP like this with a full orchestra would be life changing.
I watched this last night and it was stunning. I have to say that Gossip and Young Fathers were amazing too.
This song has really grown on me since release.

I saw them play this live in Brighton last week and this particular song has been haunting me since. Im not even sure why. This entire show with the Orchestra is epic and worth paying my BBC licence for.
Love this song. Reminds me of Robert Wyatt.
Legends!
Thom and the Thominators. Amazing!
You see that almost-smile by Jonny at the very end of the video? Says it all…

Great job on this live performance guys!
One of the best live performances of any Thom Yorke related outfit ever. Soooo beautiful. Inventive. Almost a touch of knowing absurdity like early Sufjan Stevens. But with these big earnest terrifying portions contrasted against it. Brilliant.
Absurdamente genial!
the best
I NEEEED them to come back as Radiohead oneday. I need to see them live

I love this song so much ❤
So good.

Was at the Glasgow gig on Wednesday. Fantastic
Genius
fantastic performance
praying for an american tour! Come back to Seattle!!
Unreal that I saw them last week. I miss it :(
Masters!

I don't know where you could get those vibes from as this is The Smile headed by Thom Yorke and not Radiohead smiled by Thom Yorke, they may look and sound the same but they are not I assure you. Different people.

@@phillemon7664 he's saying the satisfaction is similar. as in, that this is something perfectly transcendent, i imagine. he's not saying 'it sounds like OK Computer by radiohead', even though, in fact i think there are certain call-backs which thom and johnny haven't explored since then. certain piano motifs and dynamics are actually quite similar.

This song is absolutely brilliant. They're incredible live. I was in awe. But also - I just need one more Radiohead tour. It will be a seriously difficult "tick" to miss off my bucket list if I don't get the chance.
I percieve Pyramid Song vibes. Loved it :-)
Mejor dúo creativo de todos los tiempos!!! Junto con Lennon y Mccartney
...uau.
I think many influencers of jazz in his second album. For me is more better the first album of the smile.
fucking nice
Channeling some Jeff Buckley in his vocals
Thought i saw jerry centrall
I miss radiohead😢😢
why the sound is alway so dull on BBC)
Even more Radiohead than Radiohead. ❤🔥
Skinner is shaky. Get Phil pronto! In all honesty, Tom Skinner sounds amazing! Thom Yorke sounds like he’s 30 tops. Jonny might be the greatest musician in the world in my opinion. Cheers to just hoping Thom and Jonny continue to make music for at least another 10 to 20 years! But, please get Radiohead back together !!! ❤❤❤

is this pyramid song 2?
Pyramid song remix?
That's Pyramid Song but the number 2
Sigh, this makes me miss Radiohead so much. This sounds like a cheep version of the brilliance it could me.
