The "rain down on me from a great height" phrase is something you might not fully get if you're not English, we have this saying that parents would mostly use as a threat. We say "I'll come down on you from a great height." I would guarantee that's where Thom had that idea from.

In the lyric insert that came with the album, it’s: “raindownraindown,” “raind down,” “rain down,” “raindownrain” or “raindown.” The lyric book was basically all typos, but also almost entirely accurate, which is rare

For some reason this song evokes really powerful nostalgia for me. It's almost painful, it sends me back in time. It might be the earliest memory of a song that I have, from around when it came out. The music video is definitely part of this effect. I love it though. Weird.

[@Neo5GT]

The first time I heard paranoid android was in summer of ‘97. I wasn’t a radiohead fan at the time but as soon as I heard it I felt like it was a song I already knew somehow - so familiar like something I recognized from somewhere. I fell in love with it immediately. It was like I found the song I'd been looking for my whole life but never knew I was looking for a song. I bought ok computer as soon as possible and was immediately entranced by them for the next decade plus. That album changed the course of my life.

I love this song but these type of deep dive videos make me chuckle - I can only think that these YT dudes have never written a song without spending countless hours studying song writing techniques etc. I don't think Radiohead put anywhere near the thought into this as you are trying to make out - many times it's just like "hey that sounds good lets do that" and then maybe analyse it afterwards. Sometimes lyrics will just fit the flow of the song and then you will try and make sense of it later - the whole creative process is usually about instinct, feel and emotion not academic study. The Beatles are a classic example of this

i think this might have been a little over-interpreted and read into.

[@harveydean7952]

Chordally and structurally Radiohead make really engaging music but songwriters they're not. Thom Yorke has a one-off, fantastic voice but his lyrics for me are the weakest part of the band's output. The words are quite often clumsy in a po-faced, dystopian way. He lacks the wit and playfullness of the classic wordsmiths like Paul Simon, Randy Newman or Tom Waits. Those guys can also sucker-punch you with genuine hearfelt emotion too from time to time. As a contemporary 90's artist Damon Albarn by contrast continues to balance fun wordplay with poignancy across his varied output.

@@LieLikesMusic very good work by the way. Probably the best breakdown of this song that I've seen or read that really helped me tie the music and lyrics into the scene it describes. I had alternate meanings around the lyrics that pertain to my life as Radiohead is so great for allowing for.

[@SkenGMD]

The reason thom holds on to “what’s that” for so long so the other band members can be more in the foreground. You can notice this in a lot of Radiohead songs. He hangs on to a single note for a long time so the guitars and drums can shine

[@holiteni.pololi]

One part that i love from this song is where greenwood switches from guitar to rhodes piano, and suddenly all the percussion noises fade away. its such an amazing change.

[@Hollowsmith]

I'm surprised you didn't comment more on the 3rd section. The "Rain Down" section. For a lot of people, that's the most beautiful part of the song. There's two really cool ways that section avoids cliche: #1- Instead of using an actual choir, or a more typical synth substitute, instead they use a mellotron to make the choir sounds, which has this weirdly "human but not quite" feel to the choir, and adds a strangeness to the otherwise traditionally beautiful arrangement. One song I hear a lot of in that section is "Whiter Shade Of Pale" by Procol Harum. #2- The 2nd ingenious move is how they composed for the beginning of the melody (the first "rain down") to start one half-key lower than it SOUNDS like it will resolve on at the end of the passage. After the last 'heiiiiggggggghhhhhhtt", the ear thinks it'll resolve a half-key higher than it actually does, which just adds even more unpredictability and peculiarity to the passage. These two techniques do something that's hard to do, which is keep a very slowly and repeating section of a song actively interesting to listen to. The first movement of Moonlight Sonata does this too, where it has some peculiar and delicate resolutions that provide enough unusualness that the ear welcomes the surrounding slowness of it all. Radiohead are no doubt masters of composition.

[@Jay-qh6uv]

Some of the lyrics I find kind of unimpressive but man, I love Thom Yorke wailing “the panic, the vomit, the panic, the vomit” so much. You’re right, they’re immediately *evocative* without being literal or on the nose or overwrought. He gets across his ideas perfectly with just a few carefully chosen words. It’s very impressionistic.

[@miker2314]

I'm curious, which lyrics do find to be unimpressive

[@Jay-qh6uv]

@@miker2314 “What’s that?” for the chorus I find to be pretty uninspired and dull. The “why don’t you remember my name?” portion feels kind of phoned in, repetitive, and uncreative. The “rain down” portion is similarly bland and repetitive. Overall I find them to be really lacking in cleverness and poetry, all except for the ending from “That’s it sir, you’re leaving” on. Suddenly they become very evocative and vivid and they start to click with me. But most of the lyrics sound like low effort ramblings to me personally. The SONG itself is incredible, though. The music is top notch and is a total masterpiece, melody included-it’s just the words of that melody that I find unimpressive. It’s a real testament to the band’s and Thom Yorke’s talent though, imo, to be able to ramble semi-coherently about “Gucci little piggies” and somehow make that work *so god damn well.* I think the majority of the lyrics are bad, but they still work with the song, and the overall effect is amazing. I think the way the lyrics pull together at the end really helps the overall song, since those graphic and evocative lyrics are what the listener is left with when the song ends, a bitterly sarcastic “God loved his children” being the last words you hear.

great analysis! paranoid android needed a video like this edit: i would just like to add that the first bit of the song and the chorus are in G dorian not G minor. the verse chords are basically Cm(iv) and Gm(i) with a lot of bass note movement. and then the pedal point part comes in and give us the last clue about dorian: A#Mb5/E - Asus4/E - Em7. (the note E here being the 6th degree of the G dorian scale) and in the chorus we get: Gm6(i) - FM13(bVII) - E7(V of ii) which gives the song a lot of unresolved tension and adds to the whole idea.

I know this to be utterly random but people fail to recognise the impact the hitchhiker’s guide to the galaxy has on Radiohead music at this thing. Planet Telex is a planet they try to colonise. OK Computer is a phrase uttered all the time in the story, a prompt almost exactly the same as “Hey Siri/Google”, to get the “computer” to do something. Marvin the Paranoid Android is one of the main characters. Hell even the breakdown into Happier Healthier is pretty much the same as the spaceship decelerating on the 8O’s TV show.

For some reason, I usually don't understand or know the lyrics of the sounds of my favorite bands. I'm French so understanding song is pretty hard, but really, Radiohead's song are something else. I read the lyrics online, but i just can't remember them, Karma police first verse, Black Star and Man of war the exception (it's my favorite song so I had to learn the lyrics lmaoo) but yeah, apart from the chorus, and a few lines of my favorites, I can't understand the lyrics so thank you for this video
