Its not about age. Its about the person. Me too.. first sound he lets out and my eyes are wet and my body is filled with goosebumps. Divinity

[@KristaWaple]

He turned fifty on the seventh (a little under three weeks ago from our posts). And I do think it's remarkable and impressive and fortunate that Thom is still giving us new creations that are so intensely good, and that his voice is still beyond beautiful. I'm so glad my time alive has coincided with his so I've gotten to experience all of this as it happens.

[@davidthomas961]

Celestial perfection

When Thom was young, he made a comment about not wanting to be an old rock star and here he is as better as ever.

This man has provided more pleasure from his work than any other human alive.

[@tylermcintosh2744]

paul mccartney?

[@dach3405]

I have to partly agree with this one. Partly since the world is full of amazing artists I respect but Radiohead/Thom Yorke just happens to be my favorite of them. I also agree with it more what comes to album experience. I just tend to go back to their albums more often than any other artists work. It also proves that music doesn't have to be that complex to move you to the core. I think that's very encouraging for any music maker to realize.

Really? That’s not perfection or even absolute. It’s nice. Come on let’s put things in perspective in a world that likes to express ‘absolute perfection ‘ for something that’s ok. I enjoy this platform but just cannot abide expressions as this. Just live a little and your appreciation can be tempered. Or just lay off the Prosecco before writing nonsense.

[@sandratello4496]

@@LEgoiste For me it is perfect. I do not usually speak for others and don't give opinions from others. I only speak for myself, and this song seems perfect to me. If it does not seem that way to you, it's your opinion, not mine. If you do not like my opinion, follow your path and be happy.

[@juandavila9051]

This song takes a whole new meaning and perspective once you hear it in the film. Without saying too much, having such a lovely melody accompany some of the most brutal and twisted imagery only makes the whole experience that much more powerful and beautiful in a very sick way hahaha. Suspiria is not for everyone but having Thom Yorke make the soundtrack was the perfect choice to accompany what, in my opinion, is by far the best film of the year, and my new personal favorite film.

[@redmurder1572]

Have you never seen the original suspiria? If not, shut up,

[@persianskeptic4814]

I think this might just be one of his best song. How can one be such an amazing songwriter for so long how is it even possible

[@rumourhats]

Dude, the musicality of this piece of music is at the level of a child. It's a few melodic notes, and bass chords at the start of every bar. It's not complicated. Then, over the top, you just whine, which people interpret as being "emotional", and then you have the artifice of it being a good song. But it really isn't. It's just boring, because, if you haven't noticed, Thom has been doing this kinda shit since "How I made my Millions?" which if anything, illustrates an almighty lack of progression in style, substance, and content.

[@persianskeptic4814]

@@rumourhats As someone who listens to a lot of complicated Prog, Jazz and fusion I'll just say if you think simple = boring that's just your opinion man. And it basically means you just started listening to more complicated and experimental stuff and you think you're so special and intelligent. Don't to push it on others and state it like it's a fact.

[@rumourhats]

@@persianskeptic4814 Yes, I am aware that you're KC fan. And I'm not using "complicated music" as a barometer to good music at all. A lot of simple music can be really creative and effective. But Radiohead/Thom have been creatively bankrupt since In Rainbows - if they could be bothered to write something out of their comfort zone, it would be appreciated. The fact you think this is songwriting as its finest baffles me.

[@persianskeptic4814]

@@rumourhats hey if it's not effective at all for you then whatever. The majority of Radiohead fanbase think they still got it and A moonshaped pool was a great album. And they seem to be really loving this ones too. Same with the critics. So just don't state that stuff like it's a scientific fact.

[@rumourhats]

​@@persianskeptic4814 You're assuming I'm stating scientific facts. Of course, I'm not.But you asked a question, did you not? "How can one be such amazing songwriter for so long?" So, I have every right to answer it. Maybe other people will agree with you, and you will find that to be a more pleasant experience. Peace out.
