Radiohead - No Surprises | First Time Reaction

[@InnaSoloMusic]

Thank you so much for being here guys, see you soon on Twitch

[@fabiospy2]

you so cute

[@GrahamG76]

This one of those times when you can listen to the whole album OK Computer without skipping. Every song is a masterpiece in my opinion.

[@loisrabies8713]

Agree

I love this song. It's about depression, and giving up, and surrendering - whether that's to suicide or just to a quiet, uninteresting and unrewarding life that you resign yourself to. The feeling isn't anger, it's not fear, it's not dramatic or loud, the character doesn't want to make a fuss, it's just quiet and sad. It's the lullaby you fall asleep to in the car as the exhaust fumes are pumped into the window.

[@Aaron-ui9tj]

Good breakdown. It's the quiet desperation that's crushing.

[@dopiaza2006]

' whether that's to suicide or just to a quiet, uninteresting and unrewarding life that you resign yourself to.' Wow. You've been there.

[@Demion83]

Brilliant. I am neither proud nor ashamed to say I have just luckily never dealt with depression (have a severe anxiety disorder which just incidentally seems to shield me from depression even when I SHOULD be depressed) but game respects game and I can sense you understand the shit out of something.

[@tripfisk4246]

Yes, most people don't understand this song is about giving up on a sad miserable lonely life and opting for a quiet su!cide, or at least contemplating it. Beautiful but very sad song.

[@SmittenKitten.]

Hello, Beautiful Boy... There is happiness hiding in everyday things if you look. Please look. Your intimacy with these feelings gives me the scary kind of goosebumps.

[@davidmannion7333]

When the water drains out of the tank you can see Thom Yorke trying to hold back a smile - they'd been trying over and over again to get through the take with Thom holding his breath for long enough and he could never quite make it and so when he finally does there's that look on his face. It's in the documentary Meeting People Is Easy.

[@vals_loeder]

No surprises is perhaps the most beautiful song Radiohead has made. It comes from the almost perfect album OK Computer which I have listened to at least a thousand times since I bought it at release. This song manages to make me cry... often.

[@batmenn]

I think every song from OK Computer makes me cry

[@yeahohright3097]

Nude gives it a run for its money imo

[@meatmanmagoo]

Radiohead has a crazy diverse catalog of music, nothing ever truely sounds the same so you can basically play any of their discography and find a brand new sounds you wouldn't think they would try. Nude, There There and 2 + 2 = 5 are prime examples of the extremes they can reach.

[@dreww1609]

First off, you have a great personality for this type of channel! Not everyone finds their place in this world and has the guts to go for it. many props to you. Radiohead ARE magic - for people like me who were in High School and College in the incredible decade of the 90's musically - Radiohead are the closest we have to the Beatles or Pink Floyd or whoever are up in the clouds as the true next next next level bands. They started 30 years ago and are still together, same 5 guys friends from primary school - such a rare thing in popular music. They're in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, and are 1 of maybe 6 or 7 artist period to have 5 (out of 9) of their albums appear on Rolling Stone top 500 albums of all time. So yeah, they are a serious serious rabbit hope of incredible music to approach. I think it is cool to approach how you described, on your pace - their music isn't all soft and pretty, plenty of even more touching powerful songs than the 3 you have done and it is one of their strong suits (while being dark and slightly 'off' to give you that moist eye feeling - part of their genius) - but if it is 1 month or 3, and you'd like to stick to the prettier songs as you slowly engage with this band, I'd highly recommend the song "Nude: Live from the Basement"....it is a similar style but even more powerful and you get to see them live (it has no issues with copyright) you connect even more. Or to continue easing your way in with a bit happier but still sweet and beautiful song, "High and Dry." At some point, they have spread across so many styles to harder rock, electronica, jazz fusion...and stuff really no other band has even exactly done....the common theme is the music is like nothing else. Thanks so much for sharing, I just saw your other 2 reactions last week, so it is cool up popped a new one! Be great in your life, love and peace//

[@jameshannagan4256]

Their entire catalog is incredible and they have a lot of diversity in their sound. They are a bit of a throwback in that they are an album band and single songs often lose context because the whole record is a bit like a novel and the songs chapters. They have songs that you can dance to, cry to and rock out to but all their music is great to put on good headphones and dim the lights to.

[@mrseaweed88]

No surprises is just so dam relatable

[@gerrydantone6834]

"No Surprises" is from the "OK Computer" which is one of the greatest albums of all time. Check out "Paranoid Android" and "Let Down" versions without any video.

[@marcocolamartino2839]

Ok Computer is a masterpiece, Karma Police next step

[@stroketheboat]

i've watched a lot of Radiohead reactions, and i have to admit, your reaction actually made me shed a tear. I can see you were really touched. Thank you x

[@trentboyd5919]

Please listen to “how to disappear completely “ it cry every single time I listen to it and I can’t describe the way it makes me feel in words.

[@emmanuellrhoads]

My favorite song along with No Surprises

[@srmpenedo]

you looked happy because Thom escaped alive and that brought me tears lol

[@deadstellarengine]

Radiohead is a dense super dark brownie of emotion and brilliance.

[@jamesgorden5072]

Radiohead is the best band on earth, period.

[@barnigranero5882]

From the look on your face when you reacted to it, it is clear that you got it straight away. That suggests you've got soul.

[@chrislc35]

radiohead are a whole mood, not just a band. similar to pink floyd, or tool, in that what they do is just another level. they have a LOT of songs, and they are all so different.

[@mizzymo64]

I think you would appreciate Street Spirit (Fade Out) from their second album The Bends. It's incredible, dark and emotional with an amazing video. I hope you continue on your journey with this band. I'm kind of jealous because you have so much amazing music to discover from them. 😊

[@Beluga_Too]

Incredible song, incredible video. No shame with shedding a tear.

[@tczarny13]

HUGE Radiohead fan. Please do more

[@reynaldtrunsard977]

First thx for you channel it’s pretty great ! To continue to be emotional and visit the great world of Radiohead you should do next Street Spirit, Karma Police or Pyramid Song ! You will not regret it :)

[@趙子宏-p4e]

The first time I heard this song was on a rainy day and I loved it. 😌💕

[@radiofoot1035]

You should definitely check out some of the material off In Rainbows, it’s the most lush and beautiful album I’ve ever heard and goes way too under recognised.

[@Prairiepagan316]

In Rainbows is my personal favorite.

[@daveangel2991]

This song was part of probably the best live performance I've ever been lucky enough to see live . Glastonbury 1997. (Search KZbin - Radiohead - Glastonbury 1997 - No Surprises). The thing that kind of made it perfect was [spoilers] the fireworks going off in the background - they weren't actually part of Radiohead's show. The fireworks were a completely separate pre-planned display that happened to coincide with that bit of No Surprises. Worth searching for the rest of their Glastonbury 1997 set too. It was one hell of show.

[@BL00DRIDER]

You really need to do How to Disappear Completely. Its their best song, coming from Thom Yorke himself.

[@trentboyd5919]

This is true

[@shep4life]

Radiohead is beautiful

[@jameswestley5643]

I would recommend Bloom as another masterful song of theirs. I like how you really want to understand the lyrics and the whole song before going on to more. I think In time you might come to love these guys. they're a great band. Also, I was delighted to find that by complete accident, I was the 1300th person to like this video, I hope you get a lot more though.

[@MiguelAngelTlapalcoyoaMendez]

A Radiohead masterpiece, this song brings back a lot of memories for me, it's a little sad, but really wonderful!❤❤😢🥹🥹🥹🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟, 😎Merry christmas! Anna 🎉🎄🎄🎄❄️🧥🎅

[@Elliot-k8f]

You reacted exactly how a human should; and yes their brilliance can double as magic😉👍🙏❤️🤓

[@frenchkjfan9]

It's so nice to see someone start their journey with Radiohead's music. So, Inna, a suggestion for the next song to react to in 4 months : "Paranoid android", defintely one of their best.

[@sproutzer]

I love my eyes are getting humid. I’m going to start using that.

[@elprofereacciona]

Excellent reaction! I really agree with that idea of slowly listening to certain songs instead of binge-listening. Sometimes we need to put our own experience over the KZbin channel

[@melissaford717]

I'm taking this album with me when I go to the desert island. Got to see them live once - they opened up for Alanis Morissette back in 1996. Yes, I'm old but that's OK. Nice review and take care 🙂

[@gusfernanddes]

if you feel emotional just wait until you hear Weird Fishes/Arpeggi, Nude and Reckoner...

one of the best bands ever ...............

[@robbiebonham]

It's a kind of magic.

[@Thorrson7]

Yep, I know EXACTLY what you mean. And it's a really good idea to digest and not just consume radiohead's music. It's brilliant, and also DENSE. This is a very sophisticated band and an international treasure. 👍

[@alfredoaranda8847]

I recommend that you listen to “Reckoner” from the album In Rainbows (2007) and “Led down” from the same album as this song Ok computer (1997). Happy new year. uwu

[@timongreen2230]

You are right. Take your time.

[@ginafragata2947]

Yes they are amazing ❤

[@gusfernanddes]

More Radiohead! Nude, Weird Fishes/Arpeggi, Let Down all amazing songs!

[@carlperry75]

Greatest band in the world ❤

[@ScooterPark]

Once you get into Radiohead there’s no way out.

[@BRaan]

Fun fact: Thom Yorke almost died making this video when they couldnt draun the water fast enough. Dude is a champ though and reshot the video to get it right.

[@sixtytooo]

I miss the 90’s so much.

[@Tupavada]

First time? Really? No way

[@welcomemachine6580]

I think you should proceed in bites, they are an acquired taste, but eventually you need to hear their albums start to end. They are one of the finest at creating a flow on that progress quite nicely.

[@thesoundlikechameleons2082]

I have the album on cd signed by the band.

[@TomClarkSouthLondon]

Love the Green 😊

[@ΣΤΑΥΡΟΣΣΑΠΟΥΝΤΖΟΓΛΟΥ]

Best album ever!!!!! (

[@chinabluewho]

II normally watch these videos on the lowest setting but I had two very important reasons for watching it in HD

[@annabulgariu3707]

All their albums are pretty much masterpieces.. so you wont run out of songs.. next song would be exit music or let down or climbing out the walls... you cant go wrong...

[@lk-music]

6:29 Ha, who recommended Little By Little? That's one of their deeper cuts. 😏

[@rorsine]

Very cool reaction, if you want a soft but amazing experience with their songs, you should try "House of Cards", you'll love for sure...

[@HyMwd]

Next, High and Dry by Radiohead please

[@edq6231]

Just waiting for LET DOWN and HOW DISSAPEAR COMPLETELY

[@Jesusistheway5724]

Nice reaction 👍🏻 Please check out Neverland (live '09) by Marillion 🙏🙏🙏. Marillion is a mix between Pink Floyd and Radiohead, so you definitely should like it. It's a love song ♥️. At times like these Any fool can see Your love inside of me ❤

[@ostrichman]

I had to put CC on here as I thought she was introducing herself as "great swimmer"....

[@simeontrifonov5494]

Little by little

[@Prairiepagan316]

I can never get tired of In Rainbows.

[@flakeyjay]

Has to be magic cause it got me back in the day when this came out and still makes feel emotional. Pretty sure its his voice and ability to stretch sounds. If this makes you feel something listen to Preachers Daughter from Ethel Cain yikes...

[@stevemadrid6522]

It's a lullaby for adults.

[@Brennoyoung]

Nice

[@alexfletcher5192]

I think, to understand the context of Radiohead at this point, is to understand that Britain in the mid-1990s had been prone to a kind of retro-pop that was often boorish and sexist and unapologetic. And it was Radiohead's task to deconstruct the honesty of how people who didn't feel that way into music. It's not necessarily a new thing. There is a folkish melancholia that underpins the English mindset and which they continually give vent to.

[@faridyahya4896]

Welcome to thom yorke world for newbies..

[@danrumble74]

My recommendation for your next Radiohead song: "Paranoid Android" 😎👍

[@DonGiggity]

Listen to : Pyramid Song. By Radiohead. It’s absolutely stunning

[@XtinaDaily]

React to Beautiful by Christina Aguilera 💖

[@tczarny13]

Please do : Let Down

[@bonniepiex]

Can you react to Chris Stars - Polvo Estelar?

[@wisnuadibhakti]

React Let down - Radiohead or Exit music - Radiohead

[@lws7394]

2:40 Inna , Radiohead dont do romantic songs ! 😋

[@risankoko2719]

I USED TO HAVE A BANG GROUP AT SCHOOL ONE THAT BROUGHT THE CREEPY SONG RADIO HEAD. FULL OF MYSTERY

[@sumonjamal1653]

Radiohead was formed in the UK in the 80's, but they debuted in 1993 w/ the album 'Pablo honey'... the single 'Creep' was a huge hit and the record sold platinum as Radiohead were marketed as the British alternative rock band behind Nirvana in the 90's grunge rock era... Radiohead is: Thom Yorke (vocals/ guitar/ keyboards), Johnny Greenwood (guitar/ keyboards), Colin Greenwood (bass), Ed O'Brien (guitar) and Philip Selway (drums). In 1995, Radiohead wanted to step away from the 'grunge rock' sound and released their 2nd album 'The Bends'... it sold less (gold or half million copies in the US)... In 1997, Radiohead radically transformed their sound and incorporated more electronic sounds and influences... the 3rd album 'OK Computer' became their biggest record w/ hit singles - 'Karma police'... 'No surprises' ... 'Paranoid android'... In 2000, Radiohead released the album 'Kid A' and it went to #1 on the US charts... it was a very ambient-sounding electronic record and a huge success... Next album 'Amnesiac' was released in 2001 and was another success. Radiohead continued their success streak in 2003 w/ the album 'Hail to the thief'. Radiohead has continued to make new music and tour successfully... Subsequent albums were - 'In rainbows' (2007)... 'The King of Limbs' (2011)... 'A Moon shaped pool' (2016).

[@RDRussell2]

Hmm. Interesting comment about taking Radiohead in small doses. But I'd say they are an album-oriented band. It's like listening to Beethoven's 9th Symphony. It is made up of 4 movements. Most people know the 4th movement ("Ode to Joy" they call it) but in truth, the artistic statement is 4 movements long. It all leads up to a powerful "Ode to Joy" moment. Sure, you can take bits and piecea of it and enjoy it, but you're robbing yourself of the aesthetic experience the artists wanted to present. That said, I agree you don't want to try and digest all of Radiohead in one sitting. But you can listen to any one individual album from beginning to end, and spend a few months digesting it before moving on to the next album. Each album is so different with something different to say, or a different means of expressing itself. For me, "OK Computer" is not only their ultimate masterpiece, but probably THE best album of the last 30-40 years. You might as well listen to their albums in sequential order. I use the Beethoven analogy on purpose, by the way. As a classically trained composer myself, I sometimes wonder what music of today will still be around in 200 years, the way Mozart and Beethoven's music is still around today. Radiohead is near the top of my list. If you want to continue listening to one song at a time, and if you know your Romeo and Juliet, I highly recommend "Exit Music (For a Film)." It will year your heart out.

[@NOBO03]

If you like this one, you should definitely give nude a spin. Its off in rainbows, which is a real dark horse album from them.
