I know you probably won't see this, but this song is essentially a suicide note. They've basically withdrawn from everything. He just wants a quiet life and garden. (He wants to die with a beautiful dignity) quietly. No matter where he lives he just wants a good silent death, which explains his "hand shake of carbon monoxide" all that takes is an enclosed garage and a running car. I've personally always translated that final line of "such a pretty house and such a pretty garden" as the thoughts of the person or people finally coming across his dead body. That's the first thing they notice about him. A pretty house and garden followed by his dead body. With that thought in mind it just makes the last words spoken a lot heavier to me

[@jamiebroadbridge4776]

Perfect description of this wonderful song mate.

[@LuisMuniz]

Pretty much my interpretation, and the arpegiated music is the sound of the ambulance all through the song.

[@wemustdissent]

Won't see this? He literally says he is taking a long handshake with carbon monoxide

[@joshuapocalypse]

And also the reason he says, "no alarms"... aka carbon monoxide detector.

[@allaboutthebclicksinnit1148]

No it is not. The entire album is criticism of the dull monotony of modern life

[@trentboyd5919]

More Radiohead please

[@Ronsterino]

Such a pretty but dark song

[@Asher8328]

Radiohead has so many great songs, and "OK Computer" is a masterpiece. Maybe try "Paranoid Android" next?

[@chr0nicstupidity]

Or Airbag.

[@vickjr98]

Or 'Climbing Up The Walls'

[@jorgealvarezsinprecedentes]

I suggest you guys listen to "The Trickster" by Radiohead. It's definitely a more obscure track, but still amazing and in my opinion should've been on The Bends album

[@majorlybad]

Listen to their song 'Nude' from the album In Rainbows 🙏🏻

[@andrew11avery]

first timer here. really appreciated your lyrical breakdown as a first time react. killer takes.

[@joonahakalahti8617]

So many great Radiohead songs out there. You could try Reckoner, Nude, Jigsaw Falling Into Place, Optimistic, How to Disappear Completely, Exit Music (for a film)

[@kimtoms6442]

2 of my brother's chose carbon monoxide as a release from their lives , no one can know the depth of despair & despondency a person can fall to ever , I admire and respect my brother's who chose that moment to go , what strength of character to say that's it , no more pain , ever xx

[@penyarol83]

😔

[@bonosmith1113]

It’s a stream of consciousness. Observing that the world was already inadequate . You have to think about it in the context of the entire album “Ok Computer” at the turn of century was, “here’s this magic box that will solve a bunch of problems- Ok Computer, GO”. Like do something to help the little guy. If hope springs eternal, their was skeptical hope that it would bring about positive tangible political change.

[@bieberfever12241]

funny how you bring up political change when they crossed the picket line

[@chesirecat10]

such a pretty house and such a pretty garden could be a cemetery

[@andreascala2663]

pure talent

[@shep4life]

Beautiful song

this song is about life like we are living in a matrix with no alarms and no surprises programed to obey

[@christofcurlz6180]

Fantastic…you should get into “RADIOHEAD-Paranoid Android (album version)

[@wynnrtaylor]

it is sacrificing safety for security.

[@bonosmith1113]

I think you hit the nail on the head with a Libertarian ethos. No one signed up for tax and debt servitude. We all want a pretty house and garden with no alarms and no surprises..

[@Bonniesplushhow]

I just realized the line “a handshake of carbon monoxide” is like a friendly handshake with a friend and then everything turns to toxic or something like that I can’t really explain it.

[@slevin6544]

If i had to kms I choose this as my last song lmao

[@joshuapocalypse]

If it had to be radiohead, I would go with pyramid song. 😅

[@SR91313]

I think I would go with Motion Picture Soundtrack, Fog, or maybe True Love Waits. But I would like to think that I would never get to that point.

[@thomjer5276]

Never attempt to dissect a Radiohead song, they know what the songs mean they throw a red herring most of the time so really listening it makes most sense..

[@PoorMansThunder]

It's about the inescapable paradoxes of life.

[@J.C.3]

Karma police -Radiohead

[@marioneno]

Great song, good review. This song could have several meanings, I think you generally get the idea, wishful thinking, thoughts of escape, death, tranquility, not wanting to be here - could be a combo. I myself think of those things constantly, all of them. But in it's own weird way, tells me to see the tranquility and possible hope of continuing on - I've had enough surprises! Sorry for the dark thoughts. Good job!

[@jericoba]

_I take a quiet life_ can also be like being living dead, same as actually be dead, as shaking hands with carbon monoxide. As a quiet life can be pointless, you might as well be dead.

[@Shnonan]

A Stop at Willoughby.

[@revanasywal]

this is great reaction!

[@lorcanfeely6371]

He wants some alarms and surprises. Otherwise it's just routine.

[@LordBlazfemur]

Bro, to the dude. I read social cues. No further typing is necessary. You know exactly what im talking about. Im sorry, man. And thats the reaction i wanted. Yours. Not the performers. I wanted exactly what you gave, because you know. You.. know.

[@iamthecaptainofmysoul2293]

FAKE PLASTIC TREES, as soon as you can, unbelievably good.

[@clivejones1152]

Radiohead's Comfortably Numb ?

[@yishujia186]

I guess this song is about the last moment after he commit suicide. But I am not sure.

[@kevinjacobs8074]

Holy Hell, this is a weird reaction. If either one of you need help, blink twice.

[@user-qz9pi7vq9d]

there are 50 countries repeating that melody all around the world evereday...and when and which year somebody come back to iisten yours? better clean the monoxide from your throats...we are at 2023...and they still sound "no surprising" like an anthem...and..yours.....???????

[@user-qz9pi7vq9d]

no matters the millions billions at regalies for the " toxic" " monoxide" song....NERDS

[@Fantomex.]

Woof 🙄 these guys are dense

[@akf2000]

😂 a little bit face value

[@hastingsfuture]

absolute nonsense, great song though!

[@johnm5787]

girl is absolutely gorgeous...
