Analyzing Radiohead's harmonies

One of my top 3 favorite Radiohead songs, if it's even possible to pick, "Everything In Its Right Place" is a masterpiece, an abstract dream. The harmonies of this song are a true thing of beauty, and that Dbmaj9 is my :: soulmate :: Thanks for watching! More coming soon.

I feel like C is the key Thom feels drawn to through most of the song and can't get away from, but F is where everything is truly in its right place.

I didn't know anything about Radiohead but I heard Paranoid Android on the radio and ordered OK Computer online. What I received was the Kid A disc in an OK Computer CD case and listening to it felt like the music opened a crack in my mind and let some new coloured light in that I'd never seen before. I like both albums but Kid A has always felt special to me in a way that is beyond words.

[@lewlewlrw]

its like it chose you 😫😫😫

[@sea-ferring]

I hated the MTV buzz that surrounded radiohead during the Creep days but OK Computer sucked me right in. Although OK Computer is an obvious masterpiece that inhabits the same space as Pet Sounds, the real magic only started for me when I listened to Amnesiac and then Kid A. It was that time that I truly started to love this group of musicians.

[@B0K1T0]

I remember there was some wrong batch of kid A CDs as well and my mate accidentally bought one. Not sure if it was the same problem but I think it had to do something with the audio as well. (hard to remember after > 20 years :D) I think he kept it in the hope it would turn into some collector's item. Didn't see this guy for years though so I wonder if he ever sold it :D My sister had OK computer but I never really liked it much. But after hearing Pyramid song on MTV I was sold as well 😃

[@spacevspitch4028]

Yesss...I always thought the line "there are 2 colors in my head" and the fact that it keeps bouncing back and forth between C and F tonal centers was sweet but I've never seen anyone else point that out ❤

[@ShadyMonkOfficial]

I love how even when you don't post about NIN, you still manage to hit the nail on the head on other music I love.

[@constructionbootgazer]

Hellllllllll yes. Kid A and OK Computer are two of my favourite albums. Radiohead is such a unique band that just operates on a completely different level than anyone else. Between their compositions and lyrics, there is so much thought and depth in their music. I hope you do either or both of these records like you did with NIN; How to disappear completely, The Tourist, In Limbo, etc really all beg for your analysis.

[@billyalarie929]

Did you like Amnesiac?

[@DerekPower]

I will always remember the day I bought Kid A. I was working as a library page. This library had a Best Buy nearby. So during one of my breaks, I went straight to Best Buy, bought the CD, and went back to work. When I started driving home, I started playing it. I still had a ways to go when I arrived home, so I resumed the rest when I got to my room. I then listened to it once through again. I knew right then and there that this album would be very special.

[@australopithecus]

A friend of mine at work lent me the cd to listen to on my headphones. "EIIRP" and the title track didn't make a big impression the first time through, but when I got to the free jazz freakouts on "National Anthem", I was like, "Holy sh**..."

[@oystercatcher943]

This song and album was my introduction to Radiohead (and more experimental music in general) and boy was it intense. I wasn’t sure I liked it, but I knew right from the get-go that it was something worth pursuing

[@MrRandypanthegoatboy]

I love this entire album, and I'll go on and say it: *I* truly believe that this is the best opening song on about ANY album....and that's coming from someone who is one of the biggest TOOL fans ever as well!!!

[@arturolacruz2450]

Flamenco Heart. ixi superb analysis. I feel in the first part The C, the feel implies a flamenco style root. Implied. the last chors sequence dropping from Dbmaj7 to the top. If one were to play Dbma7/C. or Cb9 sus4 aug5...very flamencoish. Afeel that it never is but is always there.. Flameco I and the b9. such a comfort place for Flamenco. Great work. Highly recommended!!

[@samb6841]

I feel like mixolydian w/ a flat 6 is relatively common throughout their discography (in addition to making the tonic ambiguous, major vs minor, etc) a few of the many things that makes their music so cool!

[@iximusic]

You're probably right! I'm hoping to find out soon some of these "trends" by studying more of their songs.

[@samb6841]

Love it. Looking forward to more videos. These are great so thank you for making them!

[@t.andrewhanes872]

I love this song… I love Radiohead and I loved to hear you say ‘you always well up’ at a certain part of Everything In It’s Right Place… I can relate, every time I listen to “Weird Fishes”/In Rainbows, I cry. Every. Damn. Time (especially after “Everyone leaves, when they get the chance.” No other song comes close to evoking this emotion in me, it’s actually a tad embarrassing. PS: learned a lot from this video. Kudos! PPS: going to see The Smile in November. Can’t wait.

[@iximusic]

I get emotional at that same moment! Lyrics can really push things over the edge. LOVED The Smile's record. Have a great time!

Last time I saw Radiohead in concert (the year A Moon Shaped pool came out) they played this song, it was awesome.

[@mwangi8623]

Crazy how Thom was probably just messing around on a grand piano and made this I guess some people are just born to make music

[@iximusic]

Yes! He certainly was. This is the power of a common tone/pedal tone. Hold down a note, keeping changing the harmony nearby and the most wonderful things happen.

[@absea7918]

Great video. As an "ear" guitar player, I never learned the music vocabulary, so appreciate your articulate breakdown. I think of this riff as a "barber pole" - type progression, that is always winding upward, with the C holding the base, and tension as the chords move away from it. Brilliant.

[@owlbynight_js]

I was hoping you wouldn't stop at NIN. Great choice!

[@RubemOliveiradePaula]

Today I was talking to my 7 year old daughter about this song. I told her that this is my favorite song. I've considered this my favorite song for around 20 years, I've always made the self teste for "what's my favorite song?" . It was time for her to sleep, than it was time for me to look for something new about that song. And I found this! What an amazing vídeo, with all that feeling! It's só good tô understand why, theoretically, I feel só good listening to it. Thank you so much!

[@AndyGalligan]

I'd say it's in F considering bVI - bVII - I is one of the most common modal mixture progressions, it just doesn't resolve every time

[@thenoble39]

[@DJKuroh]

One of the songs that made me pick back up piano when I was in high school, along with the Still stuff and Linkin Park. 😁

[@apinkfloydsound]

I remember buying this cd the day it came out. After this song I was actually angry. I wanted it to have this killer euphoric release. And it eventually got there, but I felt so much anxiety until that point that it didn’t resolve all my anxiety. It took me several years to actually appreciate the song, and I love it now. In the opening, as soon as you mentioned the mysterious key I had a eureka moment and went, “Ahhhh! It’s actually in F and that’s why I had so much anxiety on that first listen!” I can understand the reasoning for it to be in C, but after that realization I had I don’t think I ever felt it resolve on C. F all the way! 😊 Amazing video. Thank you!

[@misubi]

I love how you describe the feeling of the chords and notes in emotional terms like "tense" and "satisfying" and not just "dominant 7th resolving to I." As a non-trained musician this is so "yes"!

[@gadaffi1000]

[@joeshuer]

[@SesameCake]

I especially love this song and Pyramid Song because it's almost as if they have no tonal center and I don't think it's unintentional. Yorke stated that Radiohead was trying to distance themselves from other up-and-coming bands that were trying to copy their style. Hence, there's very little guitar throughout Kid A, save for the ebow on Treefingers and Optimistic. I love that in Everything in It's Right Place is very ambivalent, both tonally and lyrically. The odd time signature, the use of melodic minor although one would think it is in the key of C since it starts on it. Yet it strays from that deceptive chord to a Dbmaj9, Ebmaj and then comes F, as if it were in the key of F the whole time. I'd like to think of it as technically in the key of F minor, starting on the perfect fifth, C, and rising up the scale. Also, the lyrics are so telling and expresses a lot with very little. An exercise in minimalism. Everything is said to be 'in it's right place', but it's not. It's like someone is telling you they're happy but you can garner from their facial expression that they clearly aren't.

[@jorgepeterbarton]

Majority do have a guitar, its just a bit...non-guitary. But In Limbo and Morning Bell obviously do. I'd say i can't find one EIIRP, Kid A, National Anthem and Motion Picture Soundtrack. Things like how to disappear have an Ebow doubling Ondes and the clear acoustic guitar strum. And Idioteque has what is clearly an ambient guitar loop in the 'drop'.

I don't know if anyone has so succinctly and clearly explained to me why I feel the range of emotions when listening to a piece of music. Moved to tears; incredible video.

[@avedic]

Radiohead are special. I liked The Bends the moment I heard it. But Kid A confused and annoyed me. Everyone talked about it being this postmodern masterpiece...but I just could not hear it. Until maybe the 5th full album listen. That night, it hit me...hard. EiiRP sounded deeply emotionally cathartic...that's the track that sunk into me the deepest. But then EVERY track, over time, became my new favorite. It's such an aching yearning emotionally resonant album. The only other band that makes music that hits me that same way is Sigur Ros. I actually think Sigur Ros opened for Radiohead around the kid a/amnesiac era. Imagine being at THAT show!? I would have been a human puddle at the end of it...

[@simonspeak9288]

Late to the party on this one but what a great analysis of a great piece of music. I admire your talent so much, but the genius it takes to actually create it in the first place is astounding to me. I never knew why this song affected me the way it does and now I know. Burn the Witch elicits a similar response and I’m now curious if there are similarities in the chord progressions or tonic ambiguities?

[@iximusic]

Burn The Witch also seems to bounce between 2 tonal centers so that could be what you're feeling! I believe the music Radiohead makes feels like magic (obviously) and is totally genius at times but I also don't want my crazy deep analysis of it to make it seem like you have to be superhuman to make something like this! The short version of this video would be me saying "it's 4 chords with a jazzy rhythm" and that would also be accurate ;)

[@dthorne4602]

These guys don't think about a "key" when the make a song. And that is one of the reasons why their music is so incredible, their toolkit is rooted in musicianship, emotion, improvisation and experimentation, rather than "music theory".

[@Maynard0504]

Thank you for such impressive insights on the song that embodied the peaking of modern music. It is the ultimate expressionist song: lyrics will tell you that everything is in its right place, but music convinces you of the opposite. Samples and other effects add so much emotion to the tune that you realize that machines are making the song more human. Similar to many other RH songs, this one is ultimately Orwellian: like the main character in 1984, you only reach inner peace when you finally give in to the pressure that is crushing you.
