Your Reaction
A picture is worth a thousand words is a common cliche. I want to get your reaction to one of my favorite tracks off Radiohead's In Rainbows album. Frame by frame you see a story unfolding. This is a compelling video that isn't as narrowly interpreted as you might perceive per the message at the end. This song has some great melodic hooks and really hones in on Thom Yorke's great vocal range. Read and examine the lyrics and perhaps a second viewing might change your perspective.

Today's Republicans continue advocating for individual freedoms and responsibilities. What good does that do when you strip away freedoms and don't hold yourselves accountable? The peddlers will continue distracting you with character assassinations on Democrats. That's all they've got.

Very moody and atmospheric song. I've heard great things about Radiohead, but never really listened to their stuff before. Thanks for posting.
Powerful stuff. And you're right about the lyrics, they certainly add another dimension to the video when you read them.
