RADIOHEAD Exit Music (for a film) Old Composer Reaction and Dissection with Lyrics

[@KeyOfGeebz]

Ah yes, here we go - So I guess that this is one of two songs that needed to be played in a row. I promise the next track I do will be "Let Down". Aloha :)

[@gavalav6791]

Let Down is amazing. A face melter. As are most Radiohead tracks. Subterranean Homesick Alien is not an obvious choice but the bass in that track reflects the subject matter. I think it’s supposed sound like a spaceship.

[@joeyturneyturner9223]

“Erra- skyline” pleaseee geebzzz

[@gavalav6791]

In fact, Geebz, if you love the bass you’d love anything from the first half of The King Of Limbs. Bloom, for example. I’m surprised there aren’t more suggestions for that album.

[@Clodd1]

Try Staircase or The Daily Mail, please! You're gonna be surprised.

[@donut7087]

[@deejaytee]

What's interesting is that the song kind of produces that point of reference, i.e. it's where you expect it to keep going in the way it was going, so he was like "I'm gonna step in here because it's good time to do so". But that's the genius of the song, you didn't expect it to shift at that point.

I had my Radiohead awakening back in 2004 after a breakup, and it was an incredible experience. I might have listened to Kid A 100 times that year, at least. Definitely one of my all-time favorite bands.

[@benhuber1717]

I disagree. Everytime listen to this album it takes me back to the first time I heard it. I loved those moments, miss them, and my youth. My first kiss was this album, my first heart break was this album, the love of my life dance with me to this very song, I went to war with this album, and I've sung and sing this entire album to my children. This album to me is like water. Everytime I hear it, I drink it in and am reminded about how great life is. I'm no expert, but I know this, Radiohead's OK Computer is a lot more sweeter then the taste of a shotgun and its oil in your mouth.

Exit Music (for a film) is probably the must sure fire way of getting a tear in my eye. At least musically. The way the crescendo just explodes with the organ and drums as "Now, we are one..." come in is just such an amazingly powerful moment in all of the music I've ever listened to.

Mid-view comment! For those interested in the strange background noise during the "Such a Chill" stanza, just before the drums come in (just before Geebz' first pause) -- and you hear this background noise again at the very end of the song -- it's actually recordings of children playing merrily at a playground, heavily processed, and played backwards. It's reminiscent of sea gulls at a beach. ALSO, Brad Mehldau does a fantastic cover of this song with his jazz trio; it's him on piano, with bass & drums behind him, no vocals, but a very lively rendition of the vocal part is included in the piano licks. Check it out!

I was 10 when this album came out, into music at that time already, but my sister was the one that actually bought the CD and had it playing in the house. Occasionally I'd borrow it, listen to the songs that were big on MTV at the time...Paranoid Android, Karma Police, etc, and then the handful of other tracks that would suck me in right away within the first 30 seconds or so. The slow acoustic/vocal intro on this particular track wasn't exactly what I was looking for at that age when I was just so new to music in general and everything was fresh to me. I assumed the whole song was gonna be in that vibe, and that wasn't what I wanted. A few years later, I let the whole album play out, and when the drums hit, I was absolutely blown away.

You know I always felt that the whispering voices in the background towards the sort of middle of the song was more to reflect like the wind and almost I was almost imagining the 2 escaping like like setting up a campfire like on the side of the road type of thing and they're trying to keep warm as they're making their escape.

I always picture a crypt.

Thanks for doing this one. I’ve not even watched yet but know I will love your breakdown. I really don’t know why but this track is always up there with my favorite Radiohead songs. When the drums come in just gets me every time. Thank you 🙏

Radiohead is always such a poignant experience whether it's your first time or 1000th time hearing a song Sonically and lyrically they take you on a journey I'm glad you're actually taking the time to absorb Thom's lyrics

[@midkingsteve]

Such a powerful track. Still gives me goosebumps

Merry Christmas from Michigan! Don't apologize for your nice "bad" weather in Hawaii. 😁

[@HOLYWELL]

The crescendo in this is probably my favourite piece of music of all time

[@parkpatt]

Currently 17 degrees in St Paul, MN and we've had over two feet of snowfall already this season. We got 20 inches from just one storm! Hawaii winter sounds nice, but there's something I love about this frigid hellscape. I mean winter wonderland. :) Glad you covered this song, definitely a standout from Radiohead. Fun times had by all. Aloha!

This song is literally amazing

First time I Saw radiohead on my home town (San Sebástian) there was a 500 persons right there. Half of them were english teachers and the other half local musicians. I wasen´t a big fan of Radiohead. They only album that I was listen to was Pablo Honey and Karma Police was sounding on the radio at that time. But I went to the concert "forced" by my best friend. I knew it nothing apart that songs and is hard to go to a concer when you dont know mutch of the band... BUT was one of the best shows a ever saw. On that gig Exit music for a Film (great movie BTW) was especialy thrilling. Afther that gig became a big fan and a saw them anytime they came to my city. Great memories. Thank you for the reaction. Cheers mate.

More Radiohead!! Love it man. The director Paul Thomas Anderson directed Thom (singer) and Johnny (lead guitarist/composer) in a brilliant rendition of their song The Numbers. Highly recommend!

[@di0__0ib]

this song, man it comes at you gentle like an old friend then, when it's too late or shows its real face and takes you down I love this song so much

[@moonillusions832]

Any Radiohead reaction is an automatic like for me! Please consider more songs like Motion Picture Soundtrack and Spectre!

[@Mikemikemike232]

As always your input and perspective are great. Always hoped youd do this song. One of my favorites it's so powerful.

[@athenakay]

Also the end of A Certain Black Mirror episode 👀 … perfectly used as well 😅 thank you always looking forward to these!!

[@j_murdoch]

Yes! Thanks for doing another Radiohead track. I love that this one pulled you in. It's a wonderful song, and was my obsession for months after the album dropped. And now my obligatory Radiohead suggestion: "Black Star" is the one I'll recommend, but those deep cuts from the Bends are amazing.

[@aprilhoh1898]

This is one of my all time favorite Radiohead tracks and it was delightful that you enjoyed it. Yes, that background human chattering sound does sound like anxiety! I don’t think I had really recognized that. Lovely swirl of emotions in that track of dread, self-righteousness, sadness, anger, anxiety…. Let Down does follow that one really nicely on the album. Also still highly recommend Day Dreaming off of A Moon Shaped Pool.

[@JP-Gurley]

I asked for Radiohead.. I got it. One of my fav songs from OK Computer. Thanks for the video!

[@BonBon13]

Any time this song is used in any film capacity, it brings me to tears. Most recently, The Umbrella Academy S1E7. This album is my favorite thing ever of all time.

[@blakebyles2159]

'Consumed', 'absorbed'.. as a radiohead fan, I always love watching you get swept away in their songs. You've covered some excellent ones so far. 'Motion Picture Soundtrack' will be amazing.

[@thecinesister]

Nooooo you stopped right when the drums kicked in! That's the most epic part!

[@davidmack4495]

I've been learning this on guitar...love this song!!!

[@TanguyBlanchard]

I seem to catch this channel at the right time sometimes. Or maybe the KZbin algorithm just knows me that well

[@christofcurlz6180]

I really look forward to your Radiohead reactions, thanks for this one!
