I came across it last year and without a doubt I stop by here every month. The reason why I love this video as much as the real song is undoubtedly the amazing orchestra in the background. I can't imagine this orchestra playing karma police or fake plastic trees.

I'm a huge fan of this song and Radiohead in general. This was absolutely incredible. I would say that Paranoid Android is probably one of the most difficult songs to ever cover but everyone here nailed it

[@yusergname]

About 20 odd years ago, I had the pleasure of seeing Thom Yorke play this all by himself with an acoustic guitar at the Bridge School Benefit. I honestly didn't think he'd be able to pull it off, but wow was I wrong.

I agree on this being one of the most difficult songs to cover, I've been trying for a while on piano. It's my project to try and get a version of it nailed at some point. You're right though, everyone here made it look so easy, bravo! :)

(I may be paranoid, but not an android) What's that? (I may be paranoid, but not an android) When I am king You will be first against the wall With your opinion Which is of no consequence at all What's that? What's that? Ambition makes you look pretty ugly Kicking and squealing Gucci little piggy You don't remember, you don't remember Why don't you remember my name? Off with his head, man Off with his head, man Why don't you remember my name?

I was going to say how she even looked a little like Thome Yorke but somebody beat me to it. These guys nailed it… love the arrangement. Don’t normally like ‘covers’ but love them, when done well, of Radiohead… (especially arranged for jazz) Shows how brilliant (Radiohead) is and how much talent is out in the world. Kudos to this group!

[@carsuponcarsupon]

This cover sucks. Be hon3xt. 😊

[@HiFiAwardTour]

Actually stopped halfway thru. Just seemed like going thru the motions. I appreciate the effort but this missed the mark. Singer missed the soul of the song. She’s not a bad singer at all, just doesn’t have the grit it takes to make this song sound the way it should. Too smooth and emotionless.

[@johnnymnemonic461]

@@HiFiAwardTour I think the point of this is to show the composition more than anything, having the singer properly emoting would probably be too distracting but yeah in general i agree with you

[@gestapoid]

Holy fucking shit. Some of the decisions they made are brilliant (the little injections of jazz). This is damn near as heavy as the original. Well done. Beautiful.

3:23 is one of the most beautiful versions of this part of the song I've heard.

[@stephenmcewan2460]

There's a bit at 4:08, where they've added a little run of 6 or so notes, and it's just divine.

Thats my fav part

[@kittervision]

gosh the slow part at 3:24 is always so beautiful, and just made to be sung by a choir like this. awesome job, I want to show this to my daughters orchestra teacher. get the fourth graders on this right away!

[@BlackFreezer31498]

3:24 Me recuerda al coro del Vaticano

[@itsdune079]

4th-graders?? That’s a little young to introduce to the depressed world and life of Thom Yorke...it’s good to talk to kids about mental illnesses and keep them educated, but introducing them to Radiohead that early may keep/take them in some very dark places. You become what (and whom) you listen to. Radiohead definitely keeps me down, during my depressive episodes. (Yet my melancholy personality doesn’t help keep me away from Radiohead, either, haha)

For me this arrangement has only enhanced the power beyond this song. It emphasises the intricacies of the original and the mind blowing uniqueness of Radiohead’s explosive emotional communication. Thank for doing this, awesome.

[@djowhite]

Never once imagined I would hear a choral/orchestral arrangement of a Radiohead song. Yet here it is. And I loved it, what a great piece of work, you should be proud!

[@CryptoTonight9393]

Who wrote these arrangements? They're such a great adaption. I dont hear a single element not represented by some instrument. I would have mixed it a little different maybe less cymbals. Boosted the lead vocal with some more compression she kinda gets drowned out at some points. But everyone has some ways they'd do things differently lol.

[@annepater8298]

Thank you, i wrote it myself. So the conductor is also the writer. We had 1 week to rehearse it, about 40 minutes a day. I did my best in the time possible ;) I didn't mix it though.

Im a long time radiohead fan, and also an asshole. The first thought i had about this was that the tempo was too fast for the song.
